of any such plan, account or arrangement (each, a “Plan”) subject to the fiduciary or prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or section 4975 of the Code, Subscriber represents and warrants that, to its knowledge, none of the Company, Target, Holdco or any of their respective affiliates (the “Transaction Parties”) has acted as the Plan’s fiduciary, or has been relied on for advice, with respect to its decision to acquire and hold the Acquired Shares, and none of the Transaction Parties shall at any time be relied upon as the Plan’s fiduciary with respect to any decision to acquire, continue to hold or transfer the Acquired Shares.

(o) Subscriber will have sufficient funds to pay the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2(a).

(p) Subscriber does not have, as of the date hereof, and during the 30-day period immediately prior to the date the date hereof Subscriber has not entered into, any “put equivalent position,” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act, or short sale positions, with respect to the securities of the Company.

5. Registration Rights.

(a) Holdco agrees that, within thirty (30) calendar days after the Closing Date (the “Filing Date”), Holdco will file with the Commission (at Holdco’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the Registrable Securities (as defined below) (the “Registration Statement”), and Holdco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 90th calendar day (or 120th calendar day if the Commission notifies Holdco that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Closing and (ii) the 10th business day after the date Holdco is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (such earlier date, the “Effectiveness Date”); provided, however, that if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Date shall be extended by the same amount of days that the Commission remains closed for operations, provided, further, that Holdco’s obligations to include the Registrable Securities for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to Holdco such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of Holdco held by Subscriber, including, but not limited to, the Registrable Securities held by the Subscriber, and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities as shall be reasonably requested by Holdco to effect the registration of the Holdco Shares, and Subscriber shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as Holdco may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that Holdco shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement as permitted hereunder; provided that Subscriber shall not in connection with the foregoing be required to execute any lock-up or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restriction on the ability to transfer the Registrable Securities. With respect to the information to be provided by Subscriber pursuant to this Section 5(a), Holdco shall request such information from Subscriber at least ten (10) business days prior to the anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement. Any failure by Holdco to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Date or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness Date shall not otherwise relieve Holdco of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement as set forth above in this Section 5. Holdco will provide a draft

of the Registration Statement to the undersigned for review at least two (2) business days in advance of filing the Registration Statement. In no event shall the undersigned be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the Commission; provided, if pursuant to a request by the Commission, the Company is required to identify the Subscriber as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, Subscriber will have the opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents Holdco from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Registrable Securities by the applicable shareholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of Registrable Securities as is permitted by the Commission. In such event, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered for each selling shareholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling shareholders. For purposes of this Section 5, “Registrable Securities” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the Acquired Shares and any other equity security of Holdco issued or issuable with respect to the Acquired Shares by way of share split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, replacement or similar event or otherwise (including the Holdco Shares issued by Holdco with respect to the Acquired Shares and received by the Subscriber in connection with the Transactions); provided that such securities shall cease to be Registrable Securities at the earliest of (A) when the undersigned ceases to hold any Registrable Securities, (B) the date all Registrable Securities held by the undersigned may be sold without restriction under Rule 144, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions which may be applicable to affiliates under Rule 144 and without the requirement for Holdco to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable), or (C) when such securities shall have ceased to be outstanding.

(b) In the case of the registration, qualification, exemption or compliance effected by Holdco pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, Holdco shall, upon reasonable request, inform Subscriber as to the status of such registration, qualification, exemption and compliance. At its expense, Holdco shall:

(i)

except for such times as Holdco is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration, and any qualification, exemption or compliance under state securities laws which Holdco determines to obtain, continuously effective with respect to Subscriber, and to keep the applicable Registration Statement or any subsequent shelf registration statement free of any material misstatements or omissions, until the earliest of the following: (i) Subscriber ceases to hold any Registrable Securities and (ii) two (2) years from the effective date of the Registration Statement;

(ii)

advise Subscriber within five (5) business days:

(1)

when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;

(2)

of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information;

(3)

of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;

(4)

of the receipt by Holdco of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and

(5)

subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus included therein so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Holdco shall not, when so advising Subscriber of such events, provide Subscriber with any material, nonpublic information regarding Holdco other than to the extent that providing notice to Subscriber of the occurrence of the events listed in (1) through (5) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding Holdco;

(iii)

use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;

(iv)

upon the occurrence of any event contemplated above, except for such times as Holdco is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, Holdco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(v)

use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or market, if any, on which the Holdco Shares issued by Holdco have been listed;

(vi)

use its commercially reasonable efforts (i) to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities contemplated hereby and (ii) with a view to making available to Subscriber the benefits of Rule 144 or any similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may permit Subscriber to sell the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, for so long as the Subscriber holds Registrable Securities, to (x) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, (y) file all reports and other materials required to be filed by the Exchange Act so long as the Holdco remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144, and (z) furnish to Subscriber, promptly upon request, (A) a written statement by Holdco, if true, that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of Holdco and such other reports and documents so filed by Holdco, and (C) such other information as may reasonably be requested to enable Subscriber to sell the Registrable Securities under Rule 144 without registration; and

(vii)

use its commercial efforts, if requested by Subscriber to (i) cause the removal of the restrictive legends from any Registrable Securities being sold under the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144 at the time of sale of such Registrable Securities and (ii) cause its legal counsel to deliver an opinion, if necessary, to Holdco’s transfer agent in connection with the removal of such restrictive legends, in each case upon the receipt of customary representations and other documentation from the Subscriber that is necessary to establish that restrictive legends are no longer required as reasonably requested by Holdco, its counsel or transfer agent.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, Holdco shall be entitled to delay or postpone the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, and from time to time to require Subscriber not to sell under the Registration Statement or to suspend the effectiveness thereof, if the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by Holdco or its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event Holdco’s board of directors reasonably believes, upon the advice of legal counsel, would require additional disclosure by Holdco in the Registration Statement of material information that Holdco

has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the non-disclosure of which in the Registration Statement would be expected, in the reasonable determination of Holdco’s board of directors, upon the advice of legal counsel, to cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, however, that Holdco may not delay or suspend the Registration Statement on more than two occasions or for more than sixty (60) consecutive calendar days, or more than one hundred and twenty (120) total calendar days, in each case during any twelve-month period; provided, further, that Holdco shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such Registration Statement available for the sale by Subscriber of the Registrable Securities as soon as practicable thereafter. Upon receipt of any written notice from Holdco of the happening of any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or prospectus contained therein contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, Subscriber agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until Subscriber receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which Holdco agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by Holdco that it may resume such offers and sales, and (ii) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by Holdco unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by Holdco, Subscriber will deliver to Holdco or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Securities in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Securities shall not apply (i) to the extent Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (a) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (b) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (ii) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.

(d) Holdco shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Subscriber (to the extent a seller under the Registration Statement), its officers, directors, partners, members, managers, stockholders, advisers and agents, and each person who controls the Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent, and only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information furnished in writing to Holdco by the Subscriber expressly for use therein. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Holdco’s indemnification obligations shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of Holdco (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(e) The Subscriber shall, severally, but not jointly with any Other Subscribers, indemnify and hold harmless Holdco, its directors, officers, agents and employees, and each person who controls Holdco (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, and only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information furnished in writing to Holdco by the Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of the Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Subscriber upon the sale of the Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subscriber’s indemnification obligations shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of Subscriber (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(f) If the indemnification provided under this Section 5 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5 and deemed to include any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 5(f) from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Each indemnifying party’s obligation to make a contribution pursuant to this Section 5(f) shall be individual, not joint and several, and in no event shall the liability of Subscriber hereunder exceed the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

6. Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earlier to occur of (a) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this

Subscription Agreement, (c) if any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 2 of this Subscription Agreement are not satisfied on or prior to the Closing and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated at the Closing or (d) May 31, 2021; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. The Company shall promptly notify Subscriber in writing of the termination of the Business Combination Agreement.

7. Additional Agreements and Waivers of Subscriber.

(a) Trust Account Waiver. Subscriber acknowledges that the Company is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a business combination, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses or assets. Subscriber further acknowledges that, as described in the Company’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated December 12, 2019 (the “December 2019 Prospectus”), available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of the Company’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of the Company’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of its public stockholders and the underwriters of its initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the December 2019 Prospectus. For and in consideration of the Company entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subscriber hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind they have or may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and agrees not to seek recourse or make or bring any action, suit, claim or other proceeding against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Acquired Shares, regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability; provided however, that nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to limit any Subscriber’s right, title, interest or claim to the Trust Account by virtue of such Subscriber’s record or beneficial ownership of securities of the Company acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, including but not limited to any redemption right with respect to any such securities of the Company. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that it shall not have any redemption rights with respect to the Acquired Shares pursuant to the Company’s certificate of incorporation in connection with the Transactions or any other business combination, any subsequent liquidation of the Trust Account or the Company or otherwise. In the event Subscriber has any claim against the Company as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Acquired Shares, it shall pursue such claim solely against the Company and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the Trust Account or any monies or other assets in the Trust Account. This paragraph shall survive any termination of the Subscription Agreement.

(b) No Hedging. Subscriber hereby agrees that neither it, nor any person or entity acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it, shall execute any short sales or engage in other hedging transactions of any kind with respect to the Acquired Shares during the period from the date of this Subscription Agreement through the Closing. Nothing in this Section 7(b) shall prohibit such persons from engaging in hedging transactions with respect to other securities of the Company, including Class A Shares acquired in open market purchases, so long as such person does not create any “put equivalent position,” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act, or short sale positions, with respect to the Acquired Shares, nor shall this Section 7(b) prohibit any person or entity that is an investment portfolio of Subscriber from entering into any short sales or engaging in other hedging transactions so long as such person or entity is not acting on behalf of the Subscriber and has no knowledge of this Subscription Agreement or of Subscriber’s participation in this transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

8. Miscellaneous.

(a) Each party hereto acknowledges that the other parties hereto and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement; provided, however, the Closing may only be enforced against the Subscriber by the Company. Prior to the Closing, each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other parties hereto if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties set forth herein with respect to it are no longer accurate in all material respects.

Upon such assignment by Subscriber, the assignee(s) shall become Subscriber hereunder and have the rights and obligations provided for herein to the extent of such assignment; provided further that, no assignment without the prior consent of the other parties hereto shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder, including any assignment to any fund or account managed by the same investment adviser as Subscriber, or by an affiliate of such investment adviser. Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Company or Holdco hereunder or any of the Company’s or Holdco’s obligations may be transferred or assigned other than pursuant to the Transactions.

(d) All the representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of four (4) months; provided, however, the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 3(a), Section 3(b), Section 3(c) and Section 3(h) and the representations and warranties of the Subscriber contained in Section 4(a) and Section 4(b) shall each survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year. All covenants made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement required to be performed after the Closing shall expire upon performance. All other agreements made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall expire at the Closing.

(e) The Company may request from Subscriber such additional information as the Company may deem reasonably necessary to evaluate the eligibility of Subscriber to acquire the Acquired Shares, and Subscriber shall promptly provide such information as may be reasonably requested, to the extent readily available and to the extent consistent with the Subscriber’s internal policies and procedures; provided, that, the Company agrees to keep any such information provided by Subscriber confidential. The Subscriber acknowledges that a copy of a form of this Subscription Agreement may be filed with the Commission as an exhibit to a periodic report or registration statement.

(f) This Subscription Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of such amendment, modification or waiver is sought.

(g) This Subscription Agreement (including Schedule A hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(h) Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

(i) If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

(j) This Subscription Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts (including by electronic means), all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.

(k) Each party shall pay all of its own expenses in connection with this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

(o) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damage. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Subscription Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. The right to specific enforcement shall include the right of the parties hereto to cause the other parties hereto to cause the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated on the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The parties hereto further agree, solely with respect to Section 5, (i) for Holdco to waive any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with any such equitable remedy, (ii) for Holdco to not assert that a remedy of specific enforcement pursuant to this Section 8(o) is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable law or inequitable for any reason and (iii) for Holdco to waive any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 8(o) is an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby and without that right, the parties hereto would not have entered into this Subscription Agreement.

(p) This Subscription Agreement, and any claim or cause of action hereunder based upon, arising out of or related to this Subscription Agreement (whether based on law, in equity, in contract, in tort or any other theory) or the negotiation, execution, performance or enforcement of this Subscription Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA LOCATED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK SOLELY IN RESPECT OF THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND HEREBY WAIVE, AND AGREE NOT TO ASSERT, AS A DEFENSE IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING FOR INTERPRETATION OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR THAT SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING MAY NOT BE BROUGHT OR IS NOT MAINTAINABLE IN SAID COURTS OR THAT VENUE THEREOF MAY NOT BE APPROPRIATE OR THAT THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT MAY NOT BE ENFORCED IN OR BY SUCH COURTS, AND THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED BY SUCH A NEW YORK STATE OR FEDERAL COURT.
