 2. Deposit of Escrow Shares. On or before the Effective Date, each of the Initial

 3. Disbursement of the Escrow Shares. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Shares until the date that is one year after the date of completion of the Company’s initial business combination

December 5, 2012 and February 26, 2013, entered into between the Company and each of the Initial Stockholders, (each a “Subscription Agreement”)), and upon such notice, the Initial Stockholders agree that the Escrow Agent
shall return to the Company for cancellation, at no cost, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as is set forth in such notice; provided further, however, that if the Escrow Agent is notified by the Company pursuant to
Section 6.10 hereof that the Company is being liquidated then the Escrow Agent shall promptly destroy the certificates representing the Escrow Shares held pursuant to this Agreement; provided further, however, that the Escrow
Agent (i) shall disburse each Initial Stockholder’s Escrow Shares (and any applicable stock power) to such Initial Stockholder prior to the date that is one year after the date of completion of the Company’s initial business
combination, if, during such one year period, the Company (or the surviving entity) subsequently consummates a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the stockholders of such entity having the right
to exchange their shares of Class A Common Stock for cash, securities or other property and (ii) (A) shall disburse fifty percent (50%) of each Initial Stockholder’s Escrow Shares to such Initial Stockholder prior to the

splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the Company’s initial business combination, and (B) shall disburse the remaining fifty percent
(50%) of each Initial Stockholder’s Escrow Shares to such Initial Stockholder prior to the date that is one year after the date of completion of the Company’s initial business combination, if, during such one-year period, the last
sales price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $15.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the
Company’s initial business combination, in each case upon receipt of a notice executed by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or other authorized officer of the Company, in form reasonably acceptable to the Escrow Agent,

 4. Rights of Initial Stockholders in Escrow Shares. 

4.1. Voting Rights as a Stockholder. Subject to the terms of the Insider Letter described in Section 4.3 hereof and except as
herein provided, the Initial Stockholders shall retain all of their rights as stockholders of the Company during the Escrow Period, including, without limitation, the right to vote the Escrow Shares. 

4.2. Dividends and Other Distributions in Respect of the Escrow Shares. During the Escrow Period, all dividends payable in cash
with respect to the Escrow Shares shall be paid to the Initial Stockholders, but all dividends payable in stock or other non-cash property (“Non-Cash Dividends”) shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to hold in accordance
with the terms hereof. As used herein, the term “Escrow Shares” shall be deemed to include the Non-Cash Dividends distributed thereon, if any. 
 4.3. Restrictions on Transfer. During the Escrow Period, no sale, transfer or other disposition may be made of any or all of the Escrow Shares except that the following transfers of Escrow Shares
shall be permitted: (i) transfers to other holders of Escrow Shares, to the Company’s officers, directors and employees, to a holder’s affiliates or to its members upon its liquidation, (ii) transfers to relatives and trusts for
estate planning purposes, (iii) transfers by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death, (iv) transfers pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, (v) transfers by private sales made in connection with the
consummation of a business combination at prices no greater than the price at which the shares were originally purchased and (vi) a transfer to the Company for cancellation in connection with either the Underwriters exercise of less than the
full over-allotment option or the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination; provided, however, that except for clause (vi), such permitted transfers may be implemented only upon the transferee’s written
agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and, as applicable, the Subscription Agreement and the Insider Letter (as defined below) signed by the Initial Stockholder transferring the Escrow Shares. Even if transferred in
accordance with this Section 4.3, the Escrow Shares will remain subject to this Agreement and may only be released from escrow in accordance with Section 3 hereof. As used herein, the term “Insider Letter” refers to that
letter entered into by each of the Initial Stockholders, with EarlyBirdCapital and the Company, dated as indicated on Exhibit A hereto, and the form of which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, respecting the rights and
obligations of such Initial Stockholder in certain events, including but not limited to the liquidation of the Company and certain voting and transfer restrictions which will apply during the Escrow Period. 

5. Concerning the Escrow Agent. 
 5.1. Good Faith Reliance. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, and may rely conclusively and shall

validity and 

  
 3 

 
effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained) which is believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be signed or presented
by the proper person or persons. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the Escrow Agent signed by the proper
party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto. 
 5.2. Indemnification. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any expenses, including counsel fees and disbursements, or loss suffered by the Escrow
Agent in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding involving any claim which in any way, directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the Escrow Agent hereunder, or the Escrow Shares held by it
hereunder, other than expenses or losses arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent. Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or
proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall notify the other parties hereto in writing. In the event of the receipt of such notice, the Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion, may commence an action in the nature of interpleader in an appropriate court to
determine ownership or disposition of the Escrow Shares or it may deposit the Escrow Shares with the clerk of any appropriate court or it may retain the Escrow Shares pending receipt of a final, non-appealable order of a court having jurisdiction
over all of the parties hereto directing to whom and under what circumstances the Escrow Shares are to be disbursed and delivered. The provisions of this Section 5.2 shall survive in the event the Escrow Agent resigns or is discharged pursuant
to Sections 5.5 or 5.6 below. 
 5.3. Compensation. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to reasonable compensation from
the Company for all services rendered by it hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall also be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for all expenses paid or incurred by it in the administration of its duties hereunder including, but not limited to, all
counsel, advisors’ and agents’ fees and disbursements and all taxes or other governmental charges. 
 5.4. Further
Assurances. From time to time on and after the date hereof, the Company and the Initial Stockholders shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent such further documents and instruments and shall do or cause to be done such further
acts as the Escrow Agent shall reasonably request to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement, to evidence compliance herewith or to assure itself that it is protected in acting hereunder. 

5.5. Resignation. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder by its
giving the other parties hereto written notice and such resignation shall become effective as hereinafter provided. Such resignation shall become effective at such time that the Escrow Agent shall turn over to a successor escrow agent appointed by
the Company, the Escrow Shares held hereunder. If no new escrow agent is so appointed within the 60 day period following the giving of such notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may deposit the Escrow Shares with any court it reasonably deems
appropriate. 

  
 4 

 5.6. Discharge of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall resign and be discharged from
its duties as escrow agent hereunder if so requested in writing at any time by the other parties hereto, jointly, provided, however, that such resignation shall become effective only upon acceptance of appointment by a successor escrow agent as
provided in Section 5.5. 
 5.7. Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Escrow Agent shall
not be relieved from liability hereunder for its own gross negligence or its own willful misconduct. 
 5.8. Trust Account
Waiver. The Escrow Agent hereby waives all right, title, interest, or claim of any kind (“Claim”) in or to any monies in the trust account of the Company (the “Trust Account”) created pursuant to
the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as Trustee, that it may have now or in the future, and hereby agrees not to seek recourse,

            ,      (this “Agreement”), is by and among HF2 Financial Management Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), each of the parties set forth on the signature page hereto under the heading “Initial Stockholders” (collectively, the “Initial Stockholders” and each an “Initial

 WHEREAS, the Company and each of the Initial Stockholders have entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreements”), dated as of the date hereof, pursuant to which each of the

 WHEREAS, each of the
Initial Stockholders has agreed as a condition of the sale of the Sponsors’ Shares to deposit the amount set forth opposite the name of such Initial Stockholder on Exhibit A hereto (with respect to each Initial Stockholder, the

 WHEREAS, the Company
and each of the Initial Stockholders desire that the Escrow Agent accept the Sponsors’ Purchase Price, in escrow, to be held and disbursed as hereinafter provided. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, representations, warranties and mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt,

(a) Good Faith Reliance. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in
the exercise of its own best judgment, and may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument,

  
 2 

 
report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein
contained) which is believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this
Agreement unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the Escrow Agent signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto. 

(b) Indemnification. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless, jointly and severally, by the Company and the
Initial Stockholders other than Bulldog Investors and White Sand Investor Group, LP (such indemnifying parties, the “Indemnifying Stockholders”) from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, including
counsel fees and disbursements, suffered by the Escrow Agent in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding involving any claim which in any way, directly or indirectly, relates to or arises out of this Agreement, the performance by the
Escrow Agent of services under this Agreement or with respect to the Sponsors’ Purchase Price, except to the extent any losses, claims, damages or liabilities are found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted
from the Escrow Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall notify the Company and
the Indemnifying Stockholders in writing. In the event of the receipt of such notice, the Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion, may commence an action in the nature of interpleader in an appropriate court to determine ownership or disposition of the
Sponsors’ Purchase Price or it may deposit the Sponsors’ Purchase Price with the clerk of any appropriate court or it may retain the Sponsors’ Purchase Price pending receipt of a final, non-appealable order of a court having
jurisdiction over all of the parties hereto directing to whom and under what circumstances the Sponsors’ Purchase Price is to be disbursed and delivered. The Company and the Initial Stockholders agree that the Escrow Agent shall have no
liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to the Company or the Initial Stockholders under this Agreement related to or arising out of the performance by the Escrow Agent of services under this Agreement or with respect
to the Sponsors’ Purchase Price, except to the extent any losses, claims, damages or liabilities are found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the Escrow Agent’s willful misconduct or gross
negligence. The provisions of this Section 4(b) shall survive in the event the Escrow Agent resigns or is discharged pursuant to Sections 4(e) or 4(f) below. 
 (c) Compensation. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for all expenses paid or incurred by it in the administration of its duties hereunder including, but
not limited to, all counsel, advisors’ and agents’ fees and disbursements and all taxes or other governmental charges. 
 (d) Further Assurances. If the underwriters’ over-allotment option for the IPO has not been exercised during the 45-day period following the consummation of the IPO, then, no later than
9:00 a.m. New York City time on the 46th day after the date of the consummation of the IPO, the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer or other authorized officer of the Company shall provide written notice to the Escrow Agent certifying
that the underwriters’ over-allotment option for the IPO has not been exercised within the required timeframe. From time to time on and after the date hereof, the Company and the Initial Stockholders shall deliver or cause

  
 3 

 
to be delivered to the Escrow Agent such further documents and instruments and shall do or cause to be done such further acts as the Escrow Agent shall reasonably request to carry out more
effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement, to evidence compliance herewith or to assure itself that it is protected in acting hereunder. 
 (e) Resignation. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder by its giving the other parties hereto written notice and such
resignation shall become effective as hereinafter provided. Such resignation shall become effective at such time that the Escrow Agent shall turn over to a successor escrow agent appointed by the Company, the Sponsors’ Purchase Price held
hereunder. If no new escrow agent is so appointed within the sixty (60) day period following the giving of such notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may deposit the Sponsors’ Purchase Price with any court it reasonably deems
appropriate. 
 (f) Discharge of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall resign and be discharged from its duties as
escrow agent hereunder if so requested in writing at any time by the other parties hereto, jointly; provided, however, that such resignation shall become effective only upon acceptance of appointment by a successor escrow agent as provided in
Section 4(e). 
 (g) Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Escrow Agent shall not
be relieved from liability hereunder for its own gross negligence or its own willful misconduct. 
 (h) Waiver.
The Escrow Agent hereby waives any right of set-off or any other right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) in, or to any distribution of, the trust account (to be established by the Company for the benefit of the
Company’s public stockholders as described in the Company’s registration statement filed in connection with the IPO) and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against such trust account
for any reason whatsoever. 
 Section 5. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall for all purposes be deemed to be made under and shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. 

(b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof and, except as expressly provided herein, may not be changed or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by the party to the charged. 
 (c) Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation thereof.
