                Securities Subscription Agreement

              

      

      

         

      Ladies and Gentlemen:

      

         

                   Blue Ocean Acquisition Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company” or “us”), is pleased to accept the offer of Blue Ocean Sponsor LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the“Subscriber” or “you”),

        has made to subscribe for 4,312,500 shares of Class B ordinary shares (the “Shares”), $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Class B Shares”), up to 562,500
        of which are subject to complete or partial forfeiture by you if the underwriters of the Company’s initial public offering of its securities (“IPO”), if any, do not fully exercise their over-allotment option
        (the “Over-allotment Option”). For the purposes of this agreement (this “Agreement”), references to “Ordinary Shares” are to,
        collectively, the Class B Shares and the Company’s shares of Class A ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class A Shares”). Upon certain terms and conditions, the Class B Shares will
        automatically convert into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. Unless the context otherwise requires, as used herein “Shares” shall be deemed to include any Class A Shares issued
        upon conversion of the Class B Shares comprising the Shares. The terms on which the Company is willing to issue the Shares to the Subscriber, and the Company and the Subscriber’s agreements regarding such Shares, are as follows:

      

         

      	1.	
              Subscription of Shares.  For the sum of $25,000, which the Company acknowledges receiving in cash, the Company hereby issues the Shares to the Subscriber, and the Subscriber hereby subscribes for the Shares from the Company,
                  subject to forfeiture, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.  Concurrently with the Subscriber’s execution of this Agreement, the Company shall register the Shares in the name of the Subscriber on the
                  register of members of the Company.

            

      

         

      	2.	
              Representations, Warranties and Agreements.

            

       

         

       2.1          Subscriber’s Representations, Warranties and Agreements.  To induce the Company to issue the
        Shares to the Subscriber, the Subscriber hereby represents and warrants to the Company and agrees with the Company as follows:

       

         

      2.1.1        No Government Recommendation or Approval.  The Subscriber understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon
        or made any recommendation or endorsement of the offering of the Shares.

       

         

      2.1.2       No Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by the Subscriber of the
        transactions contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) the limited liability company agreement of the Subscriber, (ii) any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Subscriber is a party, (iii) any
        law, statute, rule or regulation to which the Subscriber is subject, or (iv) any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the Subscriber is subject.

       

        

      
        
          

      

      
      2.1.3       Organization and Authority.  The Subscriber is a Cayman Islands limited liability company,
          formed and registered, validly existing and possessing all requisite power and authority necessary to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Upon execution and delivery by you, this Agreement is a legal, valid and binding
          agreement of the Subscriber, enforceable against the Subscriber in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws affecting the enforcement of
          creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).
        

        

         2.1.4      Experience, Financial Capability and Suitability.  The Subscriber is: (i) sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and
          benefits of the investment in the Shares and (ii) able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time because the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and therefore cannot be sold unless such transaction is registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.  The Subscriber is capable of evaluating the
          merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its own interests.  The Subscriber must bear the economic risk of this investment until the Shares are sold pursuant to: (x) an effective registration statement
          under the Securities Act or (y) an exemption from registration available with respect to such sale.  The Subscriber is able to bear the economic risks of an investment in the Shares and can afford a complete loss of the Subscriber’s investment in
          the Shares.

      

       

         

      2.1.5       Access to Information; Independent Investigation.  Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Subscriber has had
        the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives of the Company concerning an investment in the Company, as well as the finances, operations, business and prospects of the Company, and the opportunity to obtain
        additional information to verify the accuracy of all information so obtained.  In determining whether to make this investment, the Subscriber has relied solely on the Subscriber’s own knowledge and understanding of the Company and its business
        based upon the Subscriber’s own due diligence investigation and the information furnished pursuant to this paragraph.  The Subscriber understands that no person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representations which were
        not furnished pursuant to this Section 2, and the Subscriber has not relied on any other representations or information in making its investment decision, whether written or oral, relating to the Company, its operations and/or its
        prospects.

      

         

      
        2.1.6       Private Placement.  The Subscriber represents that it is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule
          501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act, and acknowledges the sale contemplated hereby is being made in reliance on a private placement exemption applicable to “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under
          the Securities Act or similar exemptions under state law.

      

       

         

      2.1.7        Investment Purposes.  The Subscriber is purchasing and subscribing for the Shares solely for investment purposes, for
        the Subscriber’s own account and not for the account or benefit of any other person, and not with a view towards the distribution or dissemination thereof that would result in a violation of the Securities Act. The Subscriber did not enter into
        this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502 of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

       

         

      2.1.8       Restrictions on Transfer; Shell Company.  The Subscriber understands the Shares are being offered in a transaction not
        involving a public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act.  The Subscriber understands the Shares will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, and the Subscriber understands that the
        book-entries representing the Shares will contain a legend or notation in respect of such restrictions.  If in the future the Subscriber decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares, such Shares may be offered, resold, pledged
        or otherwise transferred only pursuant to (i) registration under the Securities Act or (ii) an available exemption from registration. The Subscriber agrees that if any transfer of its Shares or any interest therein is proposed to be made, as a
        condition precedent to any such transfer, the Subscriber may, at the Company’s option, be required to deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company. Absent registration or an exemption, the Subscriber agrees not to offer,
        resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares. The Subscriber further acknowledges that because the Company is a shell company, Rule 144 may not be available to the Subscriber for the resale of the Shares until at least one year following
        consummation of the initial business combination of the Company (which may not occur), despite technical compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 and the release or waiver of any contractual transfer restrictions.

      

         

      
        2.1.9        No Governmental Consents.  No governmental, administrative or other third party consents or approvals are required,
          necessary or appropriate on the part of the Subscriber in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

         

           

      

      
        2

        
          

      

       2.2          Company’s Representations, Warranties and Agreements.  To induce the Subscriber to purchase the
        Shares, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Subscriber and agrees with the Subscriber as follows:

       

         

      2.2.1      Incorporation and Corporate Power.  The Company is a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated, validly existing and
        is qualified to do business in every jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, operating results or assets of the Company.  The Company possesses all
        requisite corporate power and authority necessary to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Upon execution and delivery by the Company, this Agreement will be a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable
        against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally and subject to
        general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).

       

         

      2.2.2       No Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by the Company of the
        transactions contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended to the date hereof (the “Organizational Documents”),
        (ii) any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company is a party, (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which the Company is subject, or (iv) any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the Company is subject.

       

         

      2.2.3       Title to Shares.  Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant to, the terms hereof and the Organizational
        Documents, the Shares will be duly and validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable. Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant to, the terms hereof and the Organizational Documents, the Subscriber will have or receive good title to
        the Shares, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances of any kind, other than (i) transfer restrictions hereunder and under the other agreements to which the Shares may be subject, (ii) transfer restrictions under federal and state
        securities laws, and (iii) liens, claims or encumbrances imposed due to the actions of the Subscriber.

       

         

      2.2.4       No Adverse Actions.  There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending, threatened against or
        affecting the Company which: (i) seek to restrain, enjoin, prevent the consummation of or otherwise affect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) question the validity or legality of any transactions or seek to recover damages or
        to obtain other relief in connection with any transactions.

       

         

      2.2.5       Authorization.  The Class A Shares issuable upon conversion of the Class B Shares have been duly authorized and
        reserved for issuance upon such conversion.

      

         

      	3.	
              Forfeiture of Shares.

            

       

         

      3.1          Partial or No Exercise of the Over-allotment Option.  In the event the Over-allotment Option
        granted to the underwriters of the IPO is not exercised in full, the Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that it (or, if applicable, it and any transferees of Shares, subject to the terms of the applicable transfer and assignment agreement) shall
        forfeit at the time such Over-allotment Option expires (or earlier if the underwriters of the IPO waive their ability to exercise such Over-allotment Option) any and all rights to such number of Shares (up to an aggregate of 562,500 Shares and pro
        rata based upon the percentage of the Over-allotment Option exercised) such that immediately following such forfeiture, the number of Shares will equal 20% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares immediately following the IPO (in each case,
        not including Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of any warrants).

       

         

      3.2          Termination of Rights as Shareholder.  If any of the Shares are forfeited in accordance with this
        Section 3, then after such time the Subscriber (or successor in interest), shall no longer have any rights as a holder of such forfeited Shares, and the Company shall take such action as is appropriate to cancel such forfeited Shares.

      

         

      	4.	
              Waiver of Liquidation Distributions; Redemption Rights.  In connection with the Shares purchased and subscribed for pursuant to this Agreement, the Subscriber hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any
                  kind in or to any distributions by the Company from the trust account which will be established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders and into which substantially all of the proceeds of the IPO will be deposited (the “Trust Account”), in the event of a liquidation of the Company upon the Company’s failure to timely complete an initial business combination.  For purposes of clarity, in the event the Subscriber
                  purchases securities in the IPO or in the aftermarket, any Class A Shares so purchased and subscribed for shall be eligible to receive any liquidating distributions by the Company.  However, in no event will the Subscriber have the right
                  to redeem any shares of Ordinary Shares held by it into funds held in the Trust Account upon the successful completion of an initial business combination.

            

      

         

      
        3

        
          

      

      	5.	
              Restrictions on Transfer.

            

       

         

      5.1          Securities Law Restrictions.  In addition to any restrictions to be contained in that certain
        letter agreement (commonly known as an “Insider Letter”) dated on or prior to the closing of the IPO by and among the Subscriber, the Company and the other parties thereto, the Subscriber agrees not to sell,
        transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Shares unless, prior thereto (i) a registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws with respect to the Shares
        proposed to be transferred shall then be effective or (ii) the Company has received, if requested by the Company, an opinion from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such registration is not required because such transaction is
        exempt from registration under the Securities Act and the rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder and with all applicable state securities laws.

      

         

      5.2           Lock-up.  The Subscriber acknowledges that the Shares will be subject to lock-up provisions (the
        “Lock-up”) contained in the Insider Letter.

      

         

      5.3           Restrictive Legends.  The book-entries representing the Shares shall contain legends or notations

      

         

      thereon substantially to the effect as follows:

      

         

      “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
        UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND NEITHER THE SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
        STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS WHICH, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL (IF THE COMPANY SO REQUESTS), IS AVAILABLE.”  

      

         

      “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO A LOCK-UP AND MAY NOT BE
        OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED DURING THE TERM OF THE LOCK-UP.” 

      

         

                    5.4          Additional Shares or Substituted Securities.  In the event of the declaration of a share dividend, the
        declaration of a special dividend payable in a form other than Ordinary Shares, a spin-off, a share split, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization or a similar transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding Ordinary Shares without
        receipt of consideration, any new, substituted or additional securities or other property which are by reason of such transaction distributed with respect to any Shares subject to this Section 5 or into which such Shares thereby become
        convertible shall immediately be subject to this Section 5 and Section 3 hereof.  Appropriate adjustments to reflect the distribution of such securities or property shall be made to the number and/or class of Ordinary Shares subject
        to this Section 5 and Section 3 hereof.

       

         

      5.5          Registration Rights.  The Subscriber acknowledges that the Shares are being purchased and subscribed for pursuant to
        an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and will become freely tradable only after certain conditions are met or they are registered pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be entered into with the Company prior
        to the closing of the IPO (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

      

         

      	6.	
              Other Agreements.

            

       

         

      6.1          Further Assurances.  The Subscriber agrees to execute such further instruments and to take such
        further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.

       

         

      6.2          Notices.  All notices, statements or other documents which are required or contemplated by this
        Agreement shall be in writing and delivered: (i) personally or sent by first class registered or certified mail, overnight courier service or facsimile or electronic transmission to the address designated in writing, (ii) by facsimile to the number
        most recently provided to such party or such other address or fax number as may be designated in writing by such party and (iii) by electronic mail, to the email address most recently provided to such party or such other email address as may be
        designated in writing by such party.  Any notice or other communication so transmitted shall be deemed to have been given on the day of delivery, if delivered personally, on the business day following receipt of written confirmation, if sent by
        facsimile or electronic transmission, one (1) business day after delivery to an overnight courier service or five (5) days after mailing if sent by mail.

      

         

      
        4

        
          

      

      6.3          Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, together with the Insider Letter and the Registration Rights
        Agreement, each substantially in the form to be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 for the IPO, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Subscriber and the Company with respect to the subject
        matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral or written agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.  No statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of any kind not expressly set forth in this Agreement shall
        affect, or be used to interpret, change or restrict, the express terms and provisions of this Agreement.

       

         

      6.4          Modifications and Amendments.  The terms and provisions of this Agreement may be modified or
        amended only by written agreement executed by all parties hereto.

      

         

      6.5          Waivers and Consents.  The terms and provisions of this Agreement may be waived, or consent for the
        departure therefrom granted, only by a written document executed by the party entitled to the benefits of such terms or provisions.  No such waiver or consent shall be deemed to be or shall constitute a waiver or consent with respect to any other
        terms or provisions of this Agreement, whether or not similar.  Each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it was given, and shall not constitute a continuing waiver or consent.

      

         

      6.6           Assignment.  The rights and obligations under this Agreement may not be assigned by either party
        hereto without the prior written consent of the other party.

      

         

      6.7           Benefit.  All statements, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement
        shall be binding on the parties hereto and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each party hereto.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create any rights or obligations except among the
        parties hereto, and no person or entity shall be regarded as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

      

         

      6.8           Governing Law.  This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be
        construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

      

         

      6.9           Severability.  In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any
        provision, or any portion thereof, contained in this Agreement shall be unreasonable or unenforceable in any respect, then such provision shall be deemed limited to the extent that such court deems it reasonable and enforceable, and as so limited
        shall remain in full force and effect.  In the event that such court shall deem any such provision, or portion thereof, wholly unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.

      

         

      6.10        No Waiver of Rights, Powers and Remedies.  No failure or delay by a party hereto in exercising any
        right, power or remedy under this Agreement, and no course of dealing between the parties hereto, shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy of such party.  No single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy under this
        Agreement by a party hereto, nor any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such right, power or remedy, shall preclude such party from any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy
        hereunder.  The election of any remedy by a party hereto shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such party to pursue other available remedies.  No notice to or demand on a party not expressly required under this Agreement shall entitle the
        party receiving such notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the party giving such notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances
        without such notice or demand.

      

         

      6.11        Survival of Representations and Warranties.  All representations and warranties made by the parties
        hereto in this Agreement or in any other agreement, certificate or instrument provided for or contemplated hereby, shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and any investigations made by or on behalf of the parties.

       

         

      
        5

        
          

      

      6.12         No Broker or Finder.  Each of the parties hereto represents and warrants to the other that no
        broker, finder or other financial consultant has acted on its behalf in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in such a way as to create any liability on the other.  Each of the parties hereto agrees to indemnify
        and save the other harmless from any claim or demand for commission or other compensation by any broker, finder, financial consultant or similar agent claiming to have been employed by or on behalf of such party and to bear the cost of legal
        expenses incurred in defending against any such claim.

      

         

      6.13         Headings and Captions.  The headings and captions of the various sections of this Agreement are
        for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify or affect the meaning or construction of any of the terms or provisions hereof.

      

         

      6.14        Counterparts; Electronic Signature.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts,
        all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the
        same counterpart.  In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or any other form of electronic delivery, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature
        is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Agreement or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to
        this Agreement shall include images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, DocuSign

      6.15        Construction.  The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this
        Agreement.  If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto
        because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.  The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include
        any other gender, and words in the singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires.  The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import
        refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited.  The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance.  If any party
        hereto has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of
        specificity) which such party hereto has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party hereto is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

      

         

      6.16        Mutual Drafting.  This Agreement is the joint product of the Subscriber and the Company and each

ARTICLE V 
 The
designations and the powers, privileges and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof in respect of each class of capital stock of the Corporation are as follows: 

A. COMMON STOCK. 
 1.
General. The voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and powers of the Common Stock are subject to and qualified by the rights, powers and preferences of any series of Preferred Stock as may be designated by the Board of Directors of
the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) and outstanding from time to time. 

 2. Voting. Except as otherwise provided herein or expressly required by law, each
holder of Common Stock, as such, shall be entitled to vote on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders and shall be entitled to one vote for each share of Class A/B Common Stock and, until the Sunset Date, twenty votes for each share of
Class X Common Stock, in each case, held of record by such holder as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter. From and after the Sunset Date, each share of Class X Common Stock will entitle the
record holder thereof to one vote on all matters on which stockholders generally are entitled to vote. Except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate of
Incorporation (including any Certificate of Designation (as defined below)) that relates solely to the rights, powers, preferences (or the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof) or other terms of one or more outstanding series of
Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Certificate of
Designation) or pursuant to the DGCL. 
 Subject to the rights of any holders of any outstanding series of Preferred Stock, the number of
authorized shares of Common Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stock of the Corporation entitled to vote, irrespective of the
provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL. 
 Except as otherwise required in this Certificate of Incorporation or by applicable law,
the holders of Common Stock will vote together as a single class on all matters (or, if any holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to vote together with the holders of Common Stock, as a single class with the holders of Preferred Stock). 

3. Dividends. 
 (i)
Subject to applicable law and the rights and preferences of any holders of any outstanding series of Preferred Stock, the holders of Common Stock, as such, shall be entitled to the payment of dividends on the Common Stock when, as and if declared by
the Board of Directors in accordance with applicable law. 
 (ii) Dividends of cash or property may not be declared or paid on any class of
Common Stock unless a dividend of the same amount per share and same type of cash or property (or combination thereof) per share is concurrently declared or paid on the other classes of Common Stock. 

(iii) In no event will any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination of stock, reclassification or recapitalization be
declared or made on any class of Common Stock (each, a “Stock Adjustment”) unless a corresponding Stock Adjustment for all other classes of Common Stock at the time outstanding is made in the same proportion and the same manner
(unless the holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of any such other class of Common Stock (voting separately as a single class) waive such requirement in advance and in writing, in which event no such Stock Adjustment need be
made for such other class of Common Stock). Stock dividends with respect to each class of Common Stock may only be paid with shares of stock of the same class of Common Stock. 

  
 2 

 4. Liquidation. Subject to the rights and preferences of any holders of any shares of
any outstanding series of Preferred Stock, in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the funds and assets of the Corporation that may be legally distributed to the
Corporation’s stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of the then outstanding Common Stock pro rata in accordance with the number of shares of Common Stock held by each such holder. 

5. Merger, Consolidation, Tender or Exchange Offer. Except as expressly provided in this Article V, all shares of Common Stock shall,
as among each other, have the same rights and privileges and rank equally, share ratably and be identical in all respects as to all matters (unless holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of any class of Common Stock (voting
separately as a single class) waive such requirement in advance and in writing to different treatment as to such class of Common Stock, in which event different treatment may be permitted for such class of Common Stock). Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, unless holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of any class of Common Stock (voting separately as a single class) waive such requirement in advance and in writing to different treatment as to such
class of Common Stock, in which event different treatment may be permitted for such class of Common Stock, (1) in the event of a merger, consolidation or other business combination requiring the approval of the holders of the Corporation’s
capital stock entitled to vote thereon (whether or not the Corporation is the surviving entity), the holders of any class of Common Stock shall have the right to receive, or the right to elect to receive, the same form of consideration, if any, as
the holders of any other class of Common Stock, and the holders of any class of Common Stock shall have the right to receive, or the right to elect to receive, at least the same amount of consideration, if any, on a per share basis as the holders of
any other class of Common Stock, and (2) in the event of (a) any tender or exchange offer to acquire any shares of Common Stock by any third party pursuant to an agreement to which the Corporation is a party or (b) any tender or
exchange offer by the Corporation to acquire any shares of Common Stock, pursuant to the terms of the applicable tender or exchange offer, the holders of any class of Common Stock shall have the right to receive, or the right to elect to receive,
the same form of consideration, if any, as the holders of any other class of Common Stock, and the holders of any class of Common Stock shall have the right to receive, or the right to elect to receive, at least the same amount of consideration, if
any, on a per share basis as the holders of any other class of Common Stock; provided that, for the purposes of the foregoing clauses (1) and (2) and notwithstanding the first sentence of this Article V, Section A.5, in the event any such
consideration includes securities, the consideration payable to holders of Class X Common Stock shall be deemed the same form of consideration and at least the same amount of consideration on a per share basis as the holders of Class A/B
Common Stock on a per share basis if the only difference in the per share distribution to the holders of Class X Common Stock is that each share of the securities distributed to such holders has twenty times the voting power of each share of
the securities distributed to the holder of a share of Class A/B Common Stock. 
 6. Transfer Rights. Subject to applicable law
and the transfer restrictions set forth in Article VII of the bylaws of the Corporation (as such Bylaws may be amended from time to time, the “Bylaws”) and Article V, Section A.8 of this Certificate of Incorporation, shares of
Common Stock and the rights and obligations associated therewith shall be fully transferable to any transferee.

 7. Conversion of Class B Common Stock. Each share of Class B
Common Stock shall automatically, without any further action, convert into one share of Class A Common Stock at the Acquisition Merger Effective Time (as defined in that certain Business Combination Agreement, entered into by and among the
Corporation, Bird Rides, Inc., Maverick Merger Sub Inc. and Switchback II Corporation, dated as of May 11, 2021, as amended from time to time (the “Business Combination Agreement”). Following such conversion, the reissuance of all
shares of Class B Common Stock shall be prohibited, and such shall be retired and cancelled in accordance with Section 243 of the DGCL and the filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware required thereby, and upon such
retirement and cancellation, all references to Class B Common Stock in this Certificate of Incorporation shall be eliminated. 
 8.
Conversion of Class X Common Stock. 
 (i) Voluntary Conversion. Each share of Class X Common Stock
shall be convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock at the option of the holder thereof at any time upon written notice to the transfer agent of the Corporation. 

(ii) Automatic Conversion. A share of Class X Common Stock shall automatically, without any further action, convert into one
share of Class A Common Stock upon a Transfer, other than to a Qualified Stockholder, of such share. 
 (iii) Automatic Conversion
of All Outstanding Class X Common Stock. Each share of Class X Common Stock shall automatically, without any further action, convert into one share of Class A Common Stock upon the earliest of (such date, the
“Sunset Date”): (a) the date on which Travis VanderZanden is neither (i) a senior executive officer of the Corporation nor (ii) a director of the Corporation; and (b) the date as of which the Qualified Stockholders
have sold, in the aggregate, more than 75% of the shares of Class X Common Stock that were held by the Qualified Stockholders as of immediately following the Effective Time (excluding, for clarity, any Permitted Transfer). 

(iv) Final Conversion of Class X Common Stock. On the Sunset Date, each share of Class X Common Stock shall
automatically, without any further action, convert into one share of Class A Common Stock. Following such conversion, the reissuance of all shares of Class X Common Stock shall be prohibited, and such shall be retired and cancelled in
accordance with Section 243 of the DGCL and the filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware required thereby, and upon such retirement and cancellation, all references to Class X Common Stock in this Certificate of
Incorporation shall be eliminated. 
 (v) Procedures. The Corporation may, from time to time, establish such policies and procedures
relating to the conversion of Class X Common Stock into Class A Common Stock and the general administration of the multi-class stock structure, including the issuance of stock certificates (or the establishment of book-entry positions)
with respect thereto, as it may deem reasonably necessary or advisable, and may from time to time request that holders of shares of Class X Common Stock furnish certifications, affidavits or other proof to the Corporation as it deems necessary
to verify the ownership of Class X Common Stock and to confirm that a conversion into Class A Common Stock has not occurred; provided that no such policies or procedures shall adversely affect the rights of the holders of Class X
Common Stock. 

  
 4 

 (vi) Immediate Effect of Conversion. In the event of a conversion of shares of
Class X Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to this Article V, Section A.8, or upon the Sunset Date, such conversion(s) shall be deemed to have been made at the time that the Transfer of shares occurred or immediately
upon the Sunset Date at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time (unless such time is otherwise specified in accordance with Article IV, Section 7(iii)), as applicable. Upon any conversion of Class X Common Stock into Class A Common Stock, all rights
of the holder of shares of Class X Common Stock shall cease and the person or persons in whose names or names the certificate or certificates (or book-entry position(s)) representing the shares of Class A Common Stock are to be issued
shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record holder or holders of such shares of Class A Common Stock. Shares of Class X Common Stock that are converted into shares of Class A Common Stock as provided in this Article
V, Section A.8 shall be retired and may not be reissued. 
 (vii) Reservation of Stock. The Corporation shall at all times reserve
and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Class X Common Stock, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall
from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Class X Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock. 

9. No Further Issuances. Except for a dividend payable in accordance with Article V, Section A.3 or a subdivision of shares effectuated
in accordance with Article V, Section A.3, the Corporation shall not at any time after the Effective Time issue any additional shares of Class X Common Stock, unless such issuance is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority
of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock. After the Sunset Date, the Corporation shall not issue any additional shares of Class X Common Stock.

herein and in the resolution or resolutions providing for the creation and issuance of such series adopted by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided. 

Authority is hereby expressly granted to the Board of Directors from time to time to issue the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and in
connection with the creation of any such series, by adopting a resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of the shares thereof and by filing a certificate of designation relating thereto in accordance with the DGCL (a “Certificate
of Designation”), to determine and fix the number of shares of such series and such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and

resolutions providing for the creation and issuance of any series of Preferred Stock may provide that such series shall be superior or rank equally or be junior to any other series of Preferred Stock to the extent permitted by law and this

 ARTICLE VI 

For the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation it is further provided that: 

A. The directors of the Corporation shall be classified with respect to the time for which they severally hold office into three classes,
designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. Each class shall consist, as nearly as may be possible, of one third of the total number of directors constituting the whole Board of Directors. The initial Class I directors shall
serve for a term 

  
 8 

 
expiring at the first annual meeting of the stockholders following the filing and effectiveness of this Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the
“Effective Time”); the initial Class II directors shall serve for a term expiring at the second annual meeting of the stockholders following the Effective Time; and the initial Class III directors shall serve for a term
expiring at the third annual meeting following the Effective Time. At each annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation beginning with the first annual meeting of stockholders following the Effective Time, the successors of the class of
directors whose term expires at that meeting shall be elected to hold office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders held in the third year following the year of their election. Each director shall hold office until his or her
successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal in accordance with this Certificate of Incorporation. No decrease in the number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent
director.

removed from office at any time, but only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of voting stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at an election
of directors. 
 D. Subject to the special rights of the holders of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock to elect directors,
except as otherwise provided by law, any vacancies on the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, retirement, removal or other causes and any newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of
directors shall be filled (i) following the Sunset Date, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director and, (ii) until the Sunset Date, only by the
affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of voting stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at an election of directors. 

E. Whenever the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation shall have the right, voting separately as a
series or separately as a class with one or more such other series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, removal and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the terms of
this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Certificate of Designation). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VI, the number of directors that may be elected by the holders of any such series of Preferred Stock shall be in
addition to the number fixed pursuant to paragraph B of this Article VI, and the total number of directors constituting the whole 

  
 9 

 
Board of Directors shall be automatically adjusted accordingly. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Designation(s) in respect of one or more series of Preferred Stock, whenever the
holders of any series of Preferred Stock having such right to elect additional directors are divested of such right pursuant to the provisions of such Certificate of Designation(s), the terms of office of all such additional directors elected by the
holders of such series of Preferred Stock, or elected to fill any vacancies resulting from the death, resignation, disqualification or removal of such additional directors, shall forthwith terminate (in which case each such director thereupon shall
cease to be qualified as, and shall cease to be, a director) and the total authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be reduced accordingly. 

F. In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, amend or
repeal the Bylaws, subject to the power of the stockholders of the Corporation entitled to vote with respect thereto to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws. The stockholders of the Corporation shall also have the power to adopt, amend or repeal the
Bylaws; provided, that in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Corporation required by applicable law or by this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Certificate of Designation in respect of one or more
series of Preferred Stock) or the Bylaws of the Corporation, the adoption, amendment or repeal of the Bylaws of the Corporation by the stockholders of the Corporation shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of voting stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in an election of directors. 

G. The directors of the Corporation need not be elected by written ballot unless the Bylaws so provide. 

ARTICLE VII 
 A. Until the
Sunset Date, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation may be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders or may, except as otherwise required by applicable law or this Certificate of
Incorporation, be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding shares of stock having not less than the minimum number of
votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL.
Following the Sunset Date, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation, and shall not be taken by written consent in lieu
of a meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action required or permitted to be taken by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or separately as a class with one or more other such series, may be taken
without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, to the extent expressly so provided by the applicable Certificate of Designation relating to such series of Preferred Stock, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so
taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding shares of the relevant series of Preferred Stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled
to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL. 

  
 10 

 B. Subject to the special rights of the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock,
and to the requirements of applicable law, special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation may be called for any purpose or purposes, at any time only by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, the Chairperson of the Board of
Directors, the Chief Executive Officer or President, in each case, in accordance with the Bylaws, and shall not be called by any other person or persons. Notwithstanding the foregoing, until the Sunset Date, special meetings of the stockholders of
the Corporation may be called for any purpose or purposes by the Secretary of the Corporation upon the request, in writing, of any holder of record of at least 25% of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation.
Any such special meeting so called may be postponed, rescheduled or cancelled by the Board of Directors or other person calling the meeting. 

C. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of other business proposed to be brought by stockholders before
any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws. Any business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to matters relating to the purpose or purposes identified in the
notice of meeting. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

No director of the Corporation shall have any personal liability to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as the same exists or hereafter may be amended. Any amendment, repeal or modification of this Article VIII, or the
adoption of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation inconsistent with this Article VIII, shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation with respect to any act or omission occurring
prior to such amendment, repeal, modification or adoption. If the DGCL is amended after approval by the stockholders of this Article VIII to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the
liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as so amended. 

ARTICLE IX 
 A. The
Corporation hereby expressly elects not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL. By operation of Section 203(b)(3) of the DGCL, the restrictions on business combinations (as defined in Section 203(c)(3) of the DGCL) under
Section 203 of the DGCL shall continue to apply for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time, at which time they shall cease to apply by virtue of the election set forth in the immediately preceding sentence (the “203 Opt-Out Effective Date”). The provisions of Article IX(B)-(D), including the restrictions on business combinations (as defined in Article IX(D)(3) below) set forth in Article IX(B) below, shall not apply
before the 203 Opt-Out Effective Date. From and after the 203 Opt-Out Effective Date, the provisions of Article IX(B)-(D) below shall become effective if, and shall
continue in effect for so long as, the Class A Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). 

  
 11 

 B. The Corporation shall not engage in any business combination with any interested
stockholder (as defined below) for a period of three years following the time that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless: 

(1) prior to such time, the Board of Directors approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder
becoming an interested stockholder; 
 (2) upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested
stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock (as defined below) of the Corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the
outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) those shares owned by (i) persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine
confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or 
 (3) at or subsequent to such
time, the business combination is approved by the Board of Directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock of the
Corporation which is not owned by the interested stockholder. 
 C. The restrictions contained in the foregoing Article IX(B) shall not
apply if: 
 (1) a stockholder becomes an interested stockholder inadvertently and (i) as soon as practicable divests itself of
ownership of sufficient shares so that the stockholder ceases to be an interested stockholder and (ii) would not, at any time, within the three-year period immediately prior to the business combination between the Corporation and such
stockholder, have been an interested stockholder but for the inadvertent acquisition of ownership; or 
 (2) the business combination is
proposed prior to the consummation or abandonment of and subsequent to the earlier of the public announcement or the notice required hereunder of a proposed transaction which (i) constitutes one of the transactions described in the second
sentence of this Article IX(C)(2), (ii) is with or by a person who either was not an interested stockholder during the previous three years or who became an interested stockholder with the approval of the Board of Directors and (iii) is
approved or not opposed by a majority of the directors then in office (but not less than one) who were directors prior to any person becoming an interested stockholder during the previous three years or were recommended for election or elected to
succeed such directors by a majority of such directors. The proposed transactions referred to in the preceding sentence are limited to (x) a merger or consolidation of the Corporation (except for a merger in respect of which, pursuant to
Section 251(f) of the DGCL, no vote of the stockholders of the Corporation is required), (y) a sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, whether as part of a dissolution or otherwise, of assets of the Corporation or of any direct or indirect
majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation (other than to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary or to the Corporation) having an aggregate market value equal to fifty percent or more of either that aggregate market value of all the assets
of the Corporation determined on a consolidated basis or the aggregate market value of all the outstanding stock of the Corporation or (z) a proposed tender or exchange offer for 50% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation.
The Corporation shall give not less than 20 days’ notice to all interested stockholders prior to the consummation of any of the transactions described in clause (x) or (y) of the second sentence of this Article IX(C)(2).

(ii) any trust or other estate in which such person has at least a 20% beneficial interest or as to which such person serves as trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity; and (iii) any relative or spouse of such person, or any relative of
such spouse, who has the same residence as such person. 
 (3) “business combination,” when used in reference to the
Corporation and any interested stockholder of the Corporation, means: 
 a. any merger or consolidation of the Corporation or any direct or
indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation (a) with the interested stockholder, or (b) with any other corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity if the merger or consolidation is caused by the
interested stockholder and as a result of such merger or consolidation subsection (B) of this Article IX is not applicable to the surviving entity; 

b. any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition (in one transaction or a series of transactions), except
proportionately as a stockholder of the Corporation, to or with the interested stockholder, whether as part of a dissolution or otherwise, of assets of the Corporation or of any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation which
assets have an aggregate market value equal to 10% or more of either the aggregate market value of all the assets of the Corporation determined on a consolidated basis or the aggregate market value of all the outstanding stock of the Corporation;

 c. any transaction which results in the issuance or transfer by the Corporation or by any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary
of the Corporation of any stock of the Corporation or of such subsidiary to the interested stockholder, except: (i) pursuant to the exercise, exchange or conversion of securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into stock of
the Corporation or any such subsidiary which securities were outstanding prior to the time that the interested stockholder became such; (ii) pursuant to a merger under Section 251(g) of the DGCL; (iii) pursuant to a dividend or
distribution paid or made, or the exercise, exchange or conversion of securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into stock of the Corporation or any such subsidiary which security is distributed, pro rata to all holders of a class
or series of stock of the Corporation subsequent to the time the interested stockholder became such; (iv) pursuant to an exchange offer by the Corporation to purchase stock made on the same terms to all holders of said stock; or (v) any
issuance or transfer of stock by the Corporation; provided, however, that in no case under items (iii) through (v) of this subsection shall there be an increase in the interested stockholder’s proportionate share of the stock of any class
or series of the Corporation or of the voting stock of the Corporation (except as a result of immaterial changes due to fractional share adjustments); 

  
 13 

 d. any transaction involving the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned
subsidiary of the Corporation which has the effect, directly or indirectly, of increasing the proportionate share of the stock of any class or series, or securities convertible into the stock of any class or series, of the Corporation or of any such
subsidiary which is owned by the interested stockholder, except as a result of immaterial changes due to fractional share adjustments or as a result of any purchase or redemption of any shares of stock not caused, directly or indirectly, by the
interested stockholder; or 
 e. any receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit, directly or indirectly (except proportionately
as a stockholder of the Corporation), of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges, or other financial benefits (other than those expressly permitted in subsections (a) through (d) above) provided by or through the Corporation or any direct or

of voting stock, by contract, or otherwise. A person who is the owner of 20% or more of the outstanding voting stock of a corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity shall be presumed to have control of such entity, in the
absence of proof by a preponderance of the evidence to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a presumption of control shall not apply where such person holds voting stock, in good faith and not for the purpose of circumventing this subsection
(D) of Article IX, as an agent, bank, broker, nominee, custodian or trustee for one or more owners who do not individually or as a group have control of such entity. 

(5) “interested stockholder” means any person (other than the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary
of the Corporation) that (i) is the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation, or (ii) is an affiliate or associate of the Corporation and was the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the
Corporation at any time within the three year period immediately prior to the date on which it is sought to be determined whether such person is an interested stockholder; and the affiliates and associates of such person; but “interested
stockholder” shall not include (a) any Stockholder Party, any Stockholder Party Direct Transferee, any Stockholder Party Indirect Transferee or any of their respective affiliates or successors or any “group,” or any member of any
such group, to which such persons are a party under Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act, or (b) any person whose ownership of shares in excess of the 15% limitation set forth herein is the result of any action
taken solely by the Corporation; provided, further, that in the case of clause (b) such person shall be an interested stockholder if thereafter such person acquires additional shares of voting stock of the Corporation, except as a result of
further corporate action not caused, directly or indirectly, by such person. For the purpose of determining whether a person is an interested stockholder, the voting stock of the Corporation deemed to be outstanding shall include stock deemed to be
owned by the person through application of the definition of “owner” below. 

  
 14

“owned,” and “ownership” when used with respect to any stock, means a person that individually or with or through any of its affiliates or associates: 

a. beneficially owns such stock, directly or indirectly; 

b. has (i) the right to acquire such stock (whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time) pursuant to
any agreement, arrangement or understanding, or upon the exercise of conversion rights, exchange rights, warrants or options, or otherwise; provided, however, that a person shall not be deemed the owner of stock tendered pursuant to a tender or
exchange offer made by such person or any of such person’s affiliates or associates until such tendered stock is accepted for purchase or exchange; or (ii) the right to vote such stock pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or
understanding; provided, however, that a person shall not be deemed the owner of any stock because of such person’s right to vote such stock if the agreement, arrangement or understanding to vote such stock arises solely from a revocable proxy
or consent given in response to a proxy or consent solicitation made to 10 or more persons; or 
 c. has any agreement, arrangement or
understanding for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except voting pursuant to a revocable proxy or consent as described in item (ii) of subsection (b) above), or disposing of such stock with any other person that beneficially
owns, or whose affiliates or associates beneficially own, directly or indirectly, such stock. 
 (7) “person” means any
individual, corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity. 
 (8) “stock” means, with respect to any
corporation, capital stock and, with respect to any other entity, any equity interest. 
 (9) “Stockholder Party” means any
stockholder of Bird Rides, Inc. as of immediately prior to the Acquisition Merger Effective Time (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement). 

(10) “Stockholder Party Direct Transferee” means any person that acquires (other than in a registered public offering)
directly from any Stockholder Party or any of its successors or any “group,” or any member of any such group, of which such persons are a party under Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act beneficial
ownership of 15% or more of the then outstanding voting stock of the Corporation. 
 (11) “Stockholder Party Indirect
Transferee” means any person that acquires (other than in a registered public offering) directly from any Stockholder Party Direct Transferee or any other Stockholder Party Indirect Transferee beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the then
outstanding voting stock of the Corporation. 
 (12) “voting stock” means stock of any class or series entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors and, with respect to any entity that is not a corporation, any equity interest entitled to vote generally in the election of the governing body of such entity. Every reference to a percentage of voting stock
shall be calculated on the basis of the aggregate number of votes applicable to all shares of such voting stock, and by allocating to each share of voting stock, that number of votes to which such share is entitled.

 ARTICLE X 

The Corporation shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law, as now or
hereafter in effect, and such right to indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives;
provided, however, that, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) in connection
with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board of Directors. The right to indemnification conferred by this Article X shall include the right to be
paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon receipt by the Corporation of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer receiving
advancement to repay the amount advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation under this Article X. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of
Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Corporation similar to those conferred in this Article X to directors and officers of the Corporation. The rights to indemnification and
to the advancement of expenses conferred in this Article X shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any statute, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise. Any repeal or modification of this Article X by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses of a director, officer, employee or
agent of the Corporation (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification. 

The Corporation hereby acknowledges that certain Covered Persons may have rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses (directly or
through insurance obtained by any such entity) provided by one or more third parties (collectively, the “Other Indemnitors”), and which may include third parties for whom such Covered Person serves as a manager, member, officer,
employee or agent. The Corporation hereby agrees and acknowledges that notwithstanding any such rights that a Covered Person may have with respect to any Other Indemnitor(s), (i) the Corporation is the indemnitor of first resort with respect to all
Covered Persons and all obligations to indemnify and provide advancement of expenses to Covered Persons, (ii) the Corporation shall be required to indemnify and advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the Covered Persons, to the fullest
extent required by law, the terms of this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any agreement to which the Corporation is a party, any vote of the stockholders or the Board of Directors, or otherwise, without regard to any rights the Covered
Persons may have against the Other Indemnitors and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Corporation irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Other Indemnitors from any and all claims for contribution, subrogation or any
other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Corporation further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Other Indemnitors with respect to any claim for which the Covered Persons have sought indemnification from the Corporation shall
affect the 

  
 16 

 
foregoing and the Other Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of any such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Covered
Persons against the Corporation. These rights shall be a contract right, and the Other Indemnitors are express third party beneficiaries of the terms of this paragraph. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the obligations of the
Corporation under this paragraph shall only apply to Covered Persons in their capacity as Covered Persons. 
 ARTICLE XI 

A. Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery (the “Chancery
Court”) of the State of Delaware (or, in the event that the Chancery Court does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware or other state courts of the State of Delaware) and any appellate court thereof
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action, suit or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a
fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or stockholder of the Corporation to the Corporation or to the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action, suit or proceeding arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the Bylaws
or this Certificate of Incorporation (as either may be amended from time to time), (iv) any action, suit or proceeding as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or (v) any action, suit or
proceeding asserting a claim against the Corporation or any current or former director, officer or stockholder governed by the internal affairs doctrine. If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of the immediately preceding
sentence is filed in a court other than the courts in the State of Delaware (a “Foreign Action”) in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (a) the personal jurisdiction of the state
and federal courts in the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence and (b) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such action
by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Article XI(A) shall not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts of the United States have exclusive jurisdiction. 
 B.
Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint
asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. 
 C. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in
any security of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to this Article XI. 
 ARTICLE XII 

A. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary, in addition to any vote required by applicable
law, the following provisions in this Certificate of Incorporation may be amended, altered, repealed or rescinded, in whole or in part, or any provision inconsistent therewith or herewith may be adopted, only by the affirmative vote of the holders
of at least 66 2/3% of the total voting power of all the then outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class: Article V(B), Article VI, Article VII, Article VIII, Article IX, Article X,
Article XI and this Article XII. 

  
 17 

 B. If any provision or provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation shall be held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any circumstance for any reason whatsoever: (i) the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Certificate of
Incorporation (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph of this Certificate of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable) shall not, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in any way be affected or impaired thereby and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation (including,
without limitation, each such portion of any paragraph of this Certificate of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to permit the Corporation to protect its directors,
officers, employees and agents from personal liability in respect of their good faith service to or for the benefit of the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

*         *     *     *     *
