after the receipt by the Account Agent of notice of demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding with respect to which the Account Agent intends to seek indemnification under this paragraph, it shall notify the Company in
writing thereof (hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnified Claim”); provided, however, that any failure or delay of the Account Agent in giving such notice shall not relieve the Company of any of its obligations hereunder except

 Section 7. Further Rights and Duties of the Account Agent. 
 (a) The Account Agent shall not be liable or responsible hereunder to anyone for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be
taken or omitted, in good faith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction). 
 (b) The Account Agent shall be obligated to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth in this Agreement. No implied covenants or obligations
shall be inferred from this Agreement against the Account Agent, nor shall the Account Agent be bound by the provisions of any agreement between or among the Company, the Public Stockholders or any other person or entity beyond the specific terms
hereof. 
 (c) The Account Agent may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, judgment, instruction, notice,
demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by or who may be an employee of the Account Agent or one of its affiliates), statement, instrument, 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 Account Agent, in good faith, to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper
person or persons. The Account Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement or any of the terms hereof, unless evidenced by a written instrument delivered to the Account
Agent signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, President or Chief Financial Officer. 
 (d) At any time the Account
Agent may request in writing an instruction in writing from the Company, and may at its own option include in such request the course of action it proposes to take and the date on which it proposes to act, regarding any matter arising in connection
with its duties and obligations hereunder. The Account Agent shall not be liable or responsible for acting without the Company’s consent in accordance with such a proposal on or after the date specified therein; provided, that the
specified date shall be at least five (5) business days after the Company receives the Account Agent’s request for instructions and its proposed course of action; and provided, further, that, prior to so acting, the Account
Agent has not received from the Company the written instructions so requested and the Account Agent’s actions are not consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 (e) In the event of ambiguity in the provisions governing the Account Property or uncertainty on the part of the Account Agent as to how to proceed, such
that the Account Agent, in its sole and absolute judgment, deems it necessary for its protection so to do, the Account 

  

 - 6 - 

 
Agent may refrain from taking any action other than: (i) to retain custody of the Account Property deposited hereunder until it shall have received
written instructions, which in the judgment of the Account Agent clarify the ambiguity, or (ii) to deposit the Account Property with a court of competent jurisdiction and thereupon to have no further duties or responsibilities in connection
therewith. 
 (f) In no event shall the Account Agent be liable or responsible for special, punitive, incidental, indirect, or consequential
loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profits) irrespective of whether the Account Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 
 (g) In no event shall the Account Agent be liable or responsible for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement
arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or
acts of God, and widespread interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software or hardware) services. 
 (h) The recitals contained herein shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Account Agent assumes no liability or responsibility for their correctness. 
 (i) The Account Agent shall not have any liability for or be under any responsibility in respect of the validity of this Agreement or the execution and
delivery hereof (except the due execution hereof by the Account Agent); nor shall it be liable or responsible for any breach by the Company of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement (including without
limitation the Company’s failure to provide the Account Agent with any written instructions or notices required to be provided by the Company to the Account Agent under this Agreement) or for determining the applicability of or whether the
Company has complied with any federal or state “blue sky” or securities laws or any other applicable laws, all of which shall be the Company’s responsibility. 
 (j) The Company will from time to time perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be delivered, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such
further and other acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Account Agent for the carrying out or performing by the Account Agent of the provisions of this Agreement. 
 (k) No provision of this Agreement shall require the Account Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of its rights hereunder. 
  

 - 7 - 

 Section 8. Resignation of Account Agent. 
 (a) The Account Agent may resign by giving written notice to the Company. Such resignation shall take effect upon delivery of the Account Property, and
all documentation relating thereto in possession of the Account Agent or its affiliates, to a successor Account Agent designated in writing by the Company, and the Account Agent shall thereupon be discharged from all obligations under this
Agreement, and shall have no further duties or responsibilities in connection herewith. 
 (b) In the event the Account Agent fails to
perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, the Company may remove the Account Agent upon written notice to the Account Agent. Such removal shall take effect upon delivery of the Account Property, and all documentation relating thereto in
possession of the Account Agent or its affiliates, to a successor Account Agent designated in writing by the Company, and the Account Agent shall thereupon be discharged from all obligations under this Agreement, and shall have no further duties or
responsibilities in connection herewith. The Account Agent shall deliver the Account Property, and all documentation relating thereto in possession of the Account Agent or its affiliates, without unreasonable delay after receiving the Company’s
designation of a successor Account Agent. 
 (c) If after 30 days from the date of delivery of its written notice of intent to resign or of
the Company’s notice of removal the Account Agent has not received a written designation of a successor Account Agent, the Account Agent’s sole responsibility shall be in its sole discretion either to retain custody of the Account Property
without any obligation to invest or reinvest any such Account Property until it receives such designation, or to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor Account Agent and after such appointment to have no further
duties or responsibilities in connection herewith. 
 (d) The Company shall, at its own expense, promptly notify each of the Public
Stockholders of the resignation or removal of the Account Agent and of the designation of a successor Account Agent.

 (b) Sections 5(b), 5(c) and 5(d), Section 6(a) and Sections 7(a), 7(g), 7(h), 7(j) and 7(m) shall survive the termination of this Agreement or any resignation or removal of the Account Agent. 
 Section 10. Miscellaneous.

Company and the Account Agent each acknowledge that the Account Agent will follow the security procedures set forth below with respect to funds transferred from the Trust Account. Upon receipt of written instructions, the Account Agent will confirm
such instructions with an Authorized Individual at an Authorized Telephone Number listed on the 

  

 - 8 - 

 
attached Exhibit D. The Company and the Account Agent will each restrict access to confidential information relating to such security procedures to
authorized persons. Each party must notify the other party immediately if it has reason to believe unauthorized persons may have obtained access to such information, or of any change in its authorized personnel. In executing funds transfers, the
Account Agent will rely upon account numbers or other identifying numbers of a recipient, recipient’s bank or intermediary bank, rather than names. 
 (b) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts formed and to be performed entirely within the State of New York, without regard to
the conflict of law provisions thereof to the extent such provisions would require or permit the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. It may be executed in several counterparts, each one of which shall constitute an original, and
together shall constitute but one instrument. 
 (c) This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto
with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement or any provision hereof may only be changed, waived, amended or modified by a writing signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, that this Agreement may not be materially changed,
waived, amended or modified without the consent of each of the Public Stockholders adversely affected thereby; provided, further, that this Agreement may not be amended in such a manner as to adversely affect the right of Citigroup Global
Markets Inc. to receive the Deferred Discount without the written consent of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. As to any claim, cross-claim or counterclaim in any way relating to this Agreement, each party waives the right to trial by jury. For purposes
of this Agreement, the Account Agent may rely on a list of Public Stockholders provided to it by the Company from time to time as to the identities of the Public Stockholders. 
 (d) The parties hereto consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in the City of New York for purposes of
resolving any disputes hereunder.

Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by overnight delivery or similar private courier service, by first-class, certified mail (return receipt requested) postage prepaid, by hand delivery or by electronic or facsimile transmission:

 Exhibit 10.10 
 SECURITIES ESCROW AGREEMENT 
 THIS SECURITIES ESCROW AGREEMENT, dated as of
                    , 2007 (this “Agreement”), by and among Sapphire Industrials Corp., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), each of the parties set forth on Exhibit A annexed hereto (such parties collectively the “Private Investors”), Lazard Group LLC (“Lazard Group”), a Delaware limited liability company and
Mellon Investor Services LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (the “Escrow Agent”). 
 WHEREAS, the Company has
entered into an Underwriting Agreement, dated                     , 2007 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), with Citigroup
Global Markets Inc. (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which, among other matters, the Underwriter has agreed to purchase 80,000,000 units of the Company plus up to an additional 12,000,000 units if the Underwriter exercises its
over-allotment option in full. The Company’s units (the “Units”) each consist of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and one warrant (the
“Warrant”) exercisable to purchase one share of Common Stock, all as more fully described in the Company’s final Prospectus, dated
                    , 2007, comprising part of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-146620) (the
“Registration Statement”) filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on
                    , 2007 (the “Effective Date”); 
 WHEREAS, each of the Private Investors has agreed as a condition of the Underwriter’s purchase of the Units in the Offering (as hereinafter defined)
to deposit its Units purchased on October 2, 2007, as set forth opposite each Private Investor’s name on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Founder Units”), in escrow as hereinafter provided; 
 WHEREAS, Lazard Funding Limited LLC (“Lazard”) has agreed as a condition of the Underwriter’s purchase of the Units in the
Company’s initial public offering (the “Offering”) to purchase 10,000,000 Warrants for $1.00 per Warrant (the “Insider Warrants”) immediately prior to and subject to the closing (the “Closing”)
of the Offering and to deposit such Insider Warrants in escrow as hereinafter provided; 
 WHEREAS, Lazard has agreed as a condition of the
Underwriter’s purchase of the Units in the Offering to place limit orders for up to $40,000,000 of Common Stock (the “Aftermarket Shares”) commencing immediately after the Company files a proxy statement relating to a Business
Combination (as such term is defined in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company) and ending on the business day immediately preceding the record date for the meeting of stockholders at which such Business Combination is
to be approved. The limit orders will require Lazard, or, under certain circumstances described therein, Lazard Group, to purchase any of the Company’s shares of Common Stock offered for sale at or below a price equal to the per share value of
the Trust Account (as defined in that certain Trust Account Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and between the Company and Mellon Bank, N.A. as account agent thereunder) as of the date of the Company’s most recent annual report on Form
10-K or quarterly report on Form 10-Q, as applicable, filed prior to such purchase. Lazard and, under certain circumstances described therein, Lazard Group have agreed to apply any portion of the $40,000,000 not used for open market purchases of
Aftermarket Shares pursuant to the limit orders described above to purchase units from the Company, at a price of $10.00 per unit (the “Co-Investment Units”), immediately prior to the consummation of a Business Combination;

 WHEREAS, the Company has asked the Underwriter to reserve 5,000,000 units in the Offering for sale to Lazard (the “Offering
Units” and collectively with the Founder Units, the Co-Investment Units, the Aftermarket Shares, the Insider Warrants and the shares of Common Stock underlying such Units and Warrants, the “Escrow Securities”) and Lazard
has agreed to deposit any such Offering Units purchased by it in escrow as hereinafter provided; and 
  

 1 

 WHEREAS, the Company, the Private Investors and Lazard Group desire that the Escrow Agent accept the
Escrow Securities, in escrow, to be held and disbursed as hereinafter provided. 
 IT IS AGREED: 
 1. Appointment of Escrow Agent. The Company, the Private Investors and Lazard Group hereby appoint the Escrow Agent to act in accordance with and subject to the
terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to act expressly in accordance with and subject to such terms. 
 2.
Deposit of Escrow Securities. 
 2.1. Founder Units. On or before the Effective Date, each of the Private Investors shall
deliver to the Escrow Agent certificates representing such Private Investor’s respective Founder Units as set forth opposite their respective names on Exhibit A hereto, which certificates shall remain in the name of such Private Investor, to be
held and disbursed subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Private Investor acknowledges that the certificate representing such Private Investor’s Founder Units bears a legend to reflect the deposit of such Founder Units
under this Agreement. 
 2.2 Insider Warrants and Offering Units. Promptly following the consummation of the Offering, Lazard shall
deliver to the Escrow Agent certificates representing its Insider Warrants and Offering Units, if any, as set forth opposite its name on Exhibit A attached hereto, which certificates shall remain in the name of Lazard, to be held and disbursed
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Lazard and Lazard Group each acknowledge that the certificates representing its Offering Units and Insider Warrants shall bear a legend to reflect the deposit of such securities under this
Agreement. 
 2.3 Aftermarket Shares and Co-Investment Units. Promptly following Lazard’s or Lazard Group’s purchase, as
applicable, of any Aftermarket Shares or Co-Investment Units, Lazard or Lazard Group, as applicable, shall deliver to the Escrow Agent certificates representing such Aftermarket Shares or Co-Investment Units, which certificates shall remain in the
name of Lazard or Lazard Group, as applicable, to be held and disbursed subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Lazard or Lazard Group, as applicable, acknowledges that the certificates representing such Aftermarket Shares or
Co-Investment Units shall bear a legend to reflect the deposit of such securities under this Agreement. 
 3. Disbursement of the Escrow Securities. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Founder Units until the first anniversary of the consummation of a Business Combination, shall hold the Insider Warrants until but excluding the 90th day after the consummation of a Business Combination, and shall hold the Offering Units, Aftermarket Shares, if any, and the Co-Investment Units, if any,
until but excluding the 180th day after the consummation of a Business Combination (each such period, an “Escrow Period”); provided,
however, that if the over-allotment granted to the Underwriter pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement is not exercised in full prior to the expiration of the over-allotment option, then the Escrow Agent shall release to the Company up to
3,000,000 Founder Units, giving effect to the split of the Founder Units, for redemption as described in the Registration Statement as directed in writing by the Company. The Company shall promptly provide written notice of the consummation of a
Business Combination to the Escrow Agent. Upon the completion of each Escrow Period, the Escrow Agent shall automatically disburse the applicable Escrow Securities to each Private Investor or Lazard Group, as applicable; provided further,
however, that if the Escrow Agent is notified in writing by the Company pursuant to Section 6.8 hereof that the Company has been liquidated at any time during the Escrow Period, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly destroy the certificates
representing the Founder Units and the 

  

 2 

 
Insider Warrants and shall promptly release the Offering Units, the Co-Investment Units, if any, and the Aftermarket Shares, if any, to Lazard; provided
further, however, that if the consummation of a Business Combination takes the form of a merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in any of the security holders of the Company having the right to exchange their
securities for other securities, then the Escrow Agent shall, upon receipt of a certificate in form reasonably acceptable to the Escrow Agent, executed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, release the Escrow Securities to the Private
Investors immediately prior and subject to consummation of the Business Combination, if the Escrow Agent has been given notice in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, so that they can similarly participate, and upon receipt of such other
securities, the Private Investors shall deposit such securities into escrow with the Escrow Agent for the remainder of the applicable Escrow Periods; and provided further, however, that if, after the Company consummates a Business Combination
and the Company or the surviving entity of such Business Combination subsequently consummates a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in any of the security holders of the Company or such entity having the
right to exchange their securities for cash, securities or other property, then the Escrow Agent shall, upon receipt of a certificate in form reasonably acceptable to the Escrow Agent, executed by the Chief Executive Officer, the President, any Vice
President or the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, that such transaction is then being consummated, release the Escrow Securities to the Private Investors or Lazard Group, as applicable, immediately prior and subject to consummation of the
Business Combination, if the Escrow Agent has been given notice in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, so that they can similarly participate. The Escrow Agent shall act as soon as reasonably possible following the receipt of the
certificate, and shall not be held liable for any delay in sending the Escrow Securities caused by the delayed receipt of the certificate. The Escrow Agent shall have no further duties hereunder with respect to the Escrow Securities, express or
implied, after the disbursement or destruction of all the Escrow Securities in accordance with this Section 3. 
 4. Rights of Private Investors in
Escrow Securities. 
 4.1. Rights as a Security Holder. Subject to the terms of their respective Insider Letters as described in
Section 4.4 hereof and except as herein provided, each Private Investor and Lazard Group, as applicable, shall retain all of its rights as a stockholder of the Company during the Escrow Period, including without limitation, the right to vote
Common Stock. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility to determine or verify the contents or limitations of the Insider Letters and shall be bound only by the express terms of this Agreement. 
 4.2. Dividends and other Distributions in Respect of the Escrow Securities. During the Escrow Period with respect to the Escrow Securities, all
dividends payable in cash with respect to the Escrow Securities shall be paid to the Private Investors or Lazard Group, as applicable, but all dividends payable in stock or other non-cash property (the “Non-Cash Dividends”) shall be
delivered to the Escrow Agent to hold in accordance with the terms hereof. As used herein, the term “Escrow Securities” 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 (a “Transfer”) may be made of any
or all of the Escrow Securities by a Private Investor except (i) by gift to a member of the Private Investor’s immediate family for estate planning purposes or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is the Private Investor or a member of the
Private Investor’s immediate family, (ii) if the Private Investor is not a natural person, by gift to a member of the immediate family of such Private Investor’s controlling person for estate planning purposes or to a trust, the
beneficiary of which is such Private Investor’s controlling person or a member of the immediate family of such Private Investor’s controlling person, (iii) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of the Private
Investor, (iv) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, (v) to employees of Lazard or the Company, (vi) to an entity’s members upon its liquidation, (vii) by private sales with respect to up to 33% of the Founder

  

 3 

 
Units made at or prior to the consummation of a Business Combination at prices no greater than the price at which the securities were originally purchased
from the Company, or (viii) Lazard may transfer up to 2,000,000 Units to LFCM Holdings or its subsidiaries prior to the announcement of a Business Combination; provided, however, that such permitted Transfers may be implemented only upon the
respective transferee’s written agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the Insider Letter signed by such Private Investor or Lazard Group, as applicable, transferring such Escrow Securities and such other
documents as the Company or Citigroup Global Markets Inc. may reasonably require. During the Escrow Period, no Private Investor shall pledge or grant a security interest in such Private Investor’s Escrow Securities or grant a security interest
in such Private Investor’s rights under this Agreement. Even if transferred in accordance with this Section 4.3, the Escrow Securities will remain subject to this Agreement and may only be released from escrow in accordance with
Section 3 hereof. Any request to the Escrow Agent to transfer Escrow Securities in accordance with this Section 4.3 shall be accompanied by a certificate of the transferor stating that such request is in compliance with this
Section 4.3. 
 4.4. Insider Letters. Each of the Private Investors has executed a letter agreement with the Company and
Citigroup Global Markets Inc., which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (the “Insider Letter”), with respect to the rights and obligations of such Private Investors 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. Reliance. 
 (a) The Escrow Agent shall be protected and shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it, in good faith, absent gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final non-appealable
order of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Escrow Agent may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, judgment, instruction, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by or who
may be an employee of the Escrow Agent or one of its affiliates), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (in each case an “Instruction”) (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, in good faith, to be genuine and to be signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, President or
Chief Financial Officer. 
 (b) 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 materially affected, unless it shall have given its
prior written consent thereto. 
 (c) In no event shall the Escrow Agent be (A) liable for acting in accordance with an
Instruction in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 5.1, even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage or (B) liable or responsible for special, punitive, indirect, consequential or
incidental loss or damages of any kind whatsoever to any person or entity (including, without limitation, lost profits). 
 (d) The Escrow Agent may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Company or any party hereto or affiliate thereof, and may act on, or as depositary, trustee or agent for, any committee or body of holders of
obligations of such party or affiliate, as freely as if it were not the Escrow Agent hereunder. 
  

 4 

 (e) The Escrow Agent shall not be obligated to expend or risk its own funds or to take
any action which it believes would expose it to expense or liability or to a risk of incurring expense or liability, unless it has been furnished with assurances of repayment or indemnity satisfactory to it, provided the Escrow Agent shall provide
the Company with prior notice in the event it determines to refrain from any action required of the Escrow Agent under the terms of this Agreement. 
 (f) The Escrow Agent shall not take instructions or directions except those Instructions given in accordance with this Agreement. 
 (g) In no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable or responsible for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this
Agreement arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural
catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or widespread malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software or hardware) services. 
 (h) The Escrow Agent shall not be called upon to advise any person or entity as to any investments with respect to any security held in escrow hereunder or the dividends, distributions, income, interest or earnings
thereon. 
 5.2. Indemnification. The Escrow Agent and its affiliates and their respective successors, assigns, directors, officers,
managers, employees, agents, attorneys, accountants and experts (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) shall be indemnified, defended, protected, saved and held harmless by the Company from and against any losses, damages, claims,
liabilities, penalties, judgments, settlements, actions, suits, proceedings, litigations, investigations, costs or expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements (collectively, “Losses”), that may
be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee, at any time, in any way, relating to or arising out of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, the enforcement of any rights or remedies under or in connection with
this Agreement, the acceptance or administration of the Escrow Securities; provided, however, that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to be so indemnified, defended, protected, saved or held harmless to the extent that such Loss was proximately caused
by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, each as determined by a final non-appealable order, judgment, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction. Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim
or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, or upon any dispute between or conflicting claims by or among the parties hereto, 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 (A) commence an action in the nature of interpleader in an appropriate court to determine ownership or disposition of the Escrow Securities, or (B) refrain from complying with any claim,
notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document relating such dispute, so long as such dispute or conflict shall continue, and (in either case) shall be fully protected and shall not be liable in any way to any
party hereto or any other person or entity for failure or refusal to comply with such conflicting claims, notices, instructions, directions, requests, communications, papers or documents until the Escrow Agent is satisfied, in its reasonable
discretion, that such conflicting claims, notices, instructions, directions, requests, communications, papers or documents have been definitely determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that in each
case the Escrow Agent provides prior written notice to the Company of its intention to refrain from complying with such conflicting claims, notices, instructions, directions, requests, communications, papers or documents. The provisions of this
Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation, removal or replacement of the Escrow Agent. 
  

 5 

 5.3. Compensation. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to compensation from the Company in
accordance with Schedule I hereto for all services rendered by it hereunder and to reimbursement for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) in connection with
the preparation, negotiation, amendment, modification, waiver, execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement. The obligations of this Section 5.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation, removal
or replacement of the Escrow Agent. 
 5.4. Further Assurances. From time to time on and after the date hereof, the Company and the
Private Investors 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 or to evidence compliance herewith. 
 5.5. Resignation. The Escrow Agent may resign from
its duties as escrow agent hereunder by its giving the other parties hereto forty-five (45) days’ written notice. If no successor escrow agent is appointed within the forty-five (45) day period following the giving of such notice of
resignation, the Escrow Agent may deposit the Escrow Securities with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, provided the Escrow Agent provides notice of such deposit to the Company and the Private Investors in
accordance with Section 6.7 hereof. 
 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. Waiver. The Escrow Agent hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind
(each, a “Claim”) in or to any distribution of the Trust Account, and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever. 
 5.8. Standard of Care. The Escrow Agent shall be obligated to perform only the duties, responsibilities or obligations as Escrow Agent expressly
set forth in this Escrow Agreement, which shall be deemed purely ministerial in nature, and the Escrow Agent shall under no circumstances be deemed to be a fiduciary to any party hereto or any other person. Without limiting the foregoing, the Escrow
Agent shall not be subject to, nor be required to comply with, or determine if any person has complied with, the Underwriting Agreement, the Registration Statement or the Insider Letters, or any other agreement between or among the parties hereto,
even though references thereto may be made in this Agreement. This Escrow Agreement sets forth all matters pertinent to the escrow contemplated hereunder, and no additional obligations of the Escrow Agent shall be inferred from the terms of this
Escrow Agreement or any other agreement or document. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ESCROW AGENT BE LIABLE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FOR ANY DAMAGES OR EXPENSES ARISING OUT OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER, OTHER THAN DAMAGES WHICH RESULT FROM THE ESCROW
AGENT’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. 
  

 6 

 6. Miscellaneous.  
 6.1. Governing Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed
in that State, including, without limitation, Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law and the New York Civil Practice Laws and Rules 327(b). The parties hereto agree that any action, proceeding or claim against it arising
out of or relating in any way to this Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and the parties hereto irrevocably submit to such

 6.2. Waiver of Trial by Jury. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives the right to a trial by jury in any action, suit,
counterclaim or other proceeding (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of, connected with or relating to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, or the actions of the parties in the negotiation, administration,
performance or enforcement hereof.
