3. ISSUER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Issuer represents and warrants to Subscriber that:

(a) The Issuer has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

(b) The Acquired Shares have been duly authorized by the Issuer and, when issued and delivered to Subscriber against full payment for the Acquired Shares in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement and registered with the Issuer’s transfer agent, the Acquired Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws or under the laws of the State of Delaware or pursuant to any agreement or other instrument to which the Issuer is a party or by which it is otherwise bound.

(c) This Subscription Agreement, the Other Subscription Agreements, the subscription agreements related to the Key Anchor Investment and the Merger Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Issuer and are enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with their respective terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, and (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

(d) The execution and delivery by the Issuer of the Transaction Documents, and the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including the issuance and sale of the Acquired Shares and the compliance by the Issuer with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein will be done in accordance with The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Nasdaq”) marketplace rules or the rules of such other applicable stock exchange on which the Issuer’s or its successor’s common stock is then listed, and the consummation of the other transactions contemplated herein, do not and will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of the Issuer pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which the Issuer is a party or by which the Issuer is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Issuer is subject; (ii) the organizational documents of the Issuer; or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Issuer or any of its properties that, in the cases of clauses (i) and (iii), would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the business, properties, financial condition, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of the Issuer (a “Material Adverse Effect”) or materially affect the validity or enforceability of the Acquired Shares or the ability or legal authority of the Issuer to comply in all material respects with this Subscription Agreement.

(e) The Issuer is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Acquired Shares), other than (i) the

filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) of the Registration Statement (as defined below), (ii) the filings required by applicable state or federal securities laws, (iii) the filings required in accordance with Section 10(m), (iv) those required by the Nasdaq or such other applicable stock exchange on which the Issuer’s common stock is then listed, including with respect to obtaining stockholder approval, and (v) any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, notice to, or filing or registration, the failure of which to obtain would not be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) The issued and outstanding Class A Shares are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and are listed for trading on the Nasdaq or such other applicable stock exchange on which the Issuer’s or its successor’s common stock is listed. There is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Issuer, threatened against the Issuer by the Nasdaq or the Commission with respect to any intention by such entity to deregister the Class A Shares or prohibit or terminate the listing of the Class A Shares on the Nasdaq. The Issuer has taken no action that is designed to terminate the registration of the Class A Shares under the Exchange Act or the listing of the Class A Shares on the Nasdaq (unless such termination on the Nasdaq is in order to switch the listing to the New York Stock Exchange or to provide for a successor listing in connection with the Transaction).

(g) Assuming the accuracy of Subscriber’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 4, no registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Acquired Shares by the Issuer to Subscriber in the manner contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

(h) Neither the Issuer nor any person acting on its behalf has engaged or will engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D of the Securities Act) in connection with any offer or sale of the Acquired Shares.

(i) The Issuer has made available to Subscriber (including via the Commission’s EDGAR system) a copy of each form, report, statement, schedule, prospectus, proxy, registration statement and other document, if any, filed by the Issuer with the Commission since its initial registration of the Class A Shares (the “SEC Documents”), which SEC Documents, as of their respective filing dates, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act or the Securities Act applicable to the SEC Documents and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents. None of the SEC Documents filed under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act (except to the extent that information contained in any SEC Document has been superseded by a later timely filed SEC Document) contained, when filed any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Issuer has timely filed each report, statement, schedule, prospectus, and registration statement that the Issuer was required to file with the Commission since its inception. There are no material outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters from the Staff of the Commission with respect to any of the SEC Documents. The financial statements of the Issuer included in the SEC Documents comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Issuer as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, year-end audit adjustments.

(j) Other than as disclosed in the Issuer’s filings with the SEC, in connection with the Transactions, the Issuer has not entered into any subscription agreement, side letter or similar agreement or understanding with any other investor in the Transaction in connection with such investor’s direct or indirect investment in the Issuer other than as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Other Subscription Agreements and the Key Anchor Investment. The Other Subscription Agreements reflect the same Share Purchase Price and other terms with respect to the purchase of the Class A Shares thereunder that are not more advantageous to such subscriber thereunder than the terms of this Subscription Agreement, other than terms particular to the regulatory requirements of such subscriber or its affiliates or related funds that are mutual funds or are otherwise subject to regulations related to the timing of funding and the issuance of their Class A Shares thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 3(j) shall not apply to any document entered into in connection with the Key Anchor Investment; provided, however, that such Key Anchor Investment shall be with respect to the same class of common stock being acquired by the Subscriber hereunder and at the same Share Purchase Price.³

³	For the Key Anchor Investors, this last sentence was not included and this representation covered the Key Anchor Investors, subject to certain exceptions.

(k) Except for placement fees payable to UBS Securities LLC and PJT Partners, LP, in their capacities as placement agents for the offer and sale of the Acquired Shares (in such capacities, the “Placement Agents”), the Issuer has not paid, and is not obligated to pay, any brokerage, finder’s or other commission or similar fee in connection with its issuance and sale of the Acquired Shares, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any fee or commission payable to any stockholder or affiliate, as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Affiliate”), of the Issuer. None of the foregoing shall create any liability on the Subscriber.

(l) No “bad actor” disqualifying event described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i)-(viii) of the Securities Act (a “Disqualification Event”) is applicable to the Issuer or, to the Issuer’s knowledge, any Issuer Covered Person, except for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii-iv) or (d)(3), is applicable. “Issuer Covered Person” means, with respect to the Issuer as an “issuer” for purposes of Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act, any person listed in the first paragraph of Rule 506(d)(1). The Issuer represents that it has exercised reasonable care to determine the accuracy of the representation made by the Issuer in this paragraph.

(m) The Issuer is in compliance with all laws that are applicable to the conduct of its business as currently conducted, other than where failure to comply with any such law would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Issuer has not received any written communication from a governmental entity that alleges that the Issuer is not in compliance with or is in default or violation of any applicable law, except where such non-compliance, default or violation would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(n) As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, the authorized capital stock of the Issuer consists of (i) 87,500,000 Class A Shares, of which 48,300,000 are issued and outstanding, (ii) 12,500,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Shares”), of which 12,075,000 are issued and outstanding and (iii) 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Preferred Shares”), of which no shares are issued and outstanding. As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, the Issuer has 16,100,000 public warrants outstanding and 7,733,333 private placement warrants outstanding. Each private placement warrant and public warrant is exercisable for one Class A Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. Prior to the Closing Date, the Issuer has no subsidiaries (other Merger Sub) and does not own, directly or indirectly, interests or investments (whether equity or debt) in any person, whether incorporated or unincorporated. Except as set forth above and pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, the Key Anchor Investment and the Merger Agreement, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from the Issuer any Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Preferred Shares or other equity interests in the Issuer, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests. There are no securities or instruments issued by the Issuer containing anti-dilution provisions that will be triggered by the issuance of (i) the Acquired Shares, (ii) the Class A Shares to be issued pursuant to any Other Subscription Agreement or the subscription agreements related to the Key Anchor Investment or (iii) the Class A Shares to be issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement, in each case, that have not been or will not be validly waived on or prior to the Closing Date.

(o) As of their respective filing dates, all reports required to be filed by Issuer with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (the “SEC Reports”) complied in all material respect with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder. None of the SEC Reports filed under the Exchange Act included, when filed or, if amended, as of the date of such amendment with respect to those disclosures that are amended, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Issuer has timely filed with the SEC each SEC Report that Issuer was required to file with the SEC. As of the date hereof, there are no material outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters received by Issuer from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the SEC with respect to any of the SEC Reports.

(p) Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the knowledge of the Issuer, threatened against the Issuer or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against the Issuer.

(q) The Issuer is not, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Acquired Shares, will not be, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(r) The Issuer acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Acquired Shares may be pledged by the undersigned in connection with a bona fide margin agreement, provided such pledge shall be (i) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that is effective under the Securities Act at the time of such pledge, and the undersigned effecting a pledge of Acquired Shares shall not be required to provide the Issuer with any notice thereof; provided, however, that neither the Issuer nor their counsel shall be required to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) in connection with any such pledge, other than providing any such lender of such margin agreement with an acknowledgment that the Acquired Shares are not subject to any contractual prohibition on pledging or lock up, the form of such acknowledgment to be subject to review and comment by the Issuer in all respects.

(s) [The Issuer acknowledges that there have been no representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made to the Issuer by Subscriber or any of its officers or directors, expressly or by implication, other than those representations, warranties, covenants and agreements expressly set forth in this Subscription Agreement.]

(m) Subscriber represents and acknowledges that Subscriber has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the Acquired Shares and determined that the Acquired Shares are a suitable investment for Subscriber and that Subscriber is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of Subscriber’s investment in the Issuer.

Subscriber also represents that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with OFAC-administered sanctions programs, including for the screening of its investors against the OFAC Lists.

5. Additional Subscriber Agreement. Subscriber hereby agrees that neither Subscriber nor any person or entity acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will engage in any Short Sales with respect to the Acquired Shares during the period from the date of this Subscription Agreement until the Closing (or such earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement pursuant to its terms). For purposes of this Section 5, “Short Sales” shall include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges (other than pledges in the ordinary course of business as part of prime brokerage arrangements), forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis) and sales and other transactions through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing herein shall prohibit other entities under common management with Subscriber that have no knowledge of this Subscription Agreement or of Subscriber’s participation in the Transaction (including Subscriber’s controlled affiliates and/or affiliates) from entering into any Short Sales and (ii) in the case of a Subscriber that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Subscriber’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Subscriber’s assets, the limitations set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Acquired Shares covered by this Subscription Agreement.

6. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.⁴

(a) The Issuer agrees that, within thirty (30) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction (the “Filing Date”), the Issuer will file with the Commission (at the Issuer’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the Acquired Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and the Issuer 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 60th calendar day (or 90th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Issuer that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Filing Date and (ii) the 10th business day after the date the Issuer 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 the Issuer’s obligation to include the Acquired Shares in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to the Issuer such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of the Issuer held by Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Acquired Shares as shall be reasonably requested by the Issuer to effect the registration of the Acquired Shares, and Subscriber shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Issuer may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that the Issuer shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement during any customary blackout or similar period or 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 Acquired Shares. For purposes of clarification, any failure by the Issuer to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Date or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness Date shall not otherwise relieve the Issuer of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement as set forth above in this Section 6. The Issuer will provide a draft of the Registration Statement to Subscriber for review at least two (2) business days in advance of filing the Registration Statement and will consider in good faith all reasonable comments provided by Subscriber for inclusion therein. In no event shall Subscriber be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the Commission; provided, that if the Commission requests that a Subscriber be identified 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 the Issuer from including any or all of the Class A 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 Class A Shares by Subscriber and the other selling stockholders named therein or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Class A Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Class A Shares as is permitted by the Commission. In such event, the number of Class A Shares to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. In the event the Commission informs the Issuer that all of such Class A Shares cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415 of the Securities Act, be registered for resale on the Registration Statement, the Issuer agrees to promptly inform Subscriber thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Registration Statement as required by the Commission, covering the maximum number of Class A Shares permitted to be registered by the Commission, on Form S-1 or such other form available to register for resale such shares as a secondary offering.

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

(i) except for such times as the Issuer 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 the Issuer 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 earlier of the

⁴	For the Key Anchor Investors, registration rights are instead set forth in the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement.

following: (i) Subscriber ceases to hold any Acquired Shares or (ii) the date all Acquired Shares held by Subscriber are 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 the Issuer to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) or Rule 144(i)(2), as applicable, and (iii) three (3) 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) after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information with respect to the Subscriber;

(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 the Issuer of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Acquired Shares 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 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, the Issuer shall not, when so advising Subscriber of such events described in this Section 6(b)(ii), provide the Subscriber with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Issuer other than to the extent that providing notice to Subscriber of the occurrence of the events listed in (1) through (5) above may constitute material, nonpublic information regarding the Issuer;

(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 in Section 6(b)(ii)(5), except for such times as the Issuer is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Issuer 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 Acquired Shares 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 Acquired Shares to be listed on each securities exchange or market, if any, on which the Class A Shares issued by the Issuer have been listed;

(vi) use its commercially reasonable efforts (i) to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Acquired Shares contemplated hereby and (ii) to file all reports and other materials required to be filed by the Exchange Act so long as the Issuer remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144 to enable Subscriber to sell the Acquired Shares under Rule 144 for so long as the Subscriber holds Acquired Shares; and

(vii) upon Subscriber’s request, deliver all the necessary documentation to cause the Issuer’s transfer agent to remove the legend set forth above in Section 2(b), as promptly as practicable and no later than two (2) business days after such request, when the Acquired Shares are sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or the Registration Statement or may be sold without restriction under Rule 144. In connection therewith, if required by the Issuer’s transfer agent, the Issuer will promptly cause an opinion of counsel to be delivered to and maintained with its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent that authorize and direct the transfer agent to issue such Acquired Shares without any such legend. If restrictive legends are no longer required for the Acquired Shares pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer shall, reasonably promptly following any request therefor from Subscriber accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable representations and other documentation referred to above establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required, deliver to the transfer agent irrevocable instructions that the transfer agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for the Acquired Shares.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, the Issuer 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 Issuer determines that in order for the Registration Statement to not contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed to include information that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act, or if such filing or use could materially affect a bona fide business or financing transaction of the Issuer or its subsidiaries or would require additional disclosure by the Issuer in the Registration Statement of material information that the Issuer has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, however, that the Issuer 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. Upon receipt of any written notice from the Issuer 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 related prospectus 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 it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Acquired Shares 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 the Issuer 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 the Issuer that it may resume such offers and sales; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Issuer shall not include any material non-public information in any such written notice. If so directed by the Issuer, Subscriber will deliver to the Issuer or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Acquired Shares in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Acquired Shares 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) Subscriber may deliver written notice (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the Issuer requesting that Subscriber not receive notices from the Issuer otherwise required by this Section 6; provided, however, that Subscriber may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from Subscriber (unless subsequently revoked), (i) the Issuer shall not deliver any such notices to Subscriber and Subscriber shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with any such notice and (ii) each time prior to Subscriber’s intended use of an effective Registration Statement, Subscriber will notify the Issuer in writing at least two (2) business days in advance of such intended use, and if a notice of a Suspension Event was previously delivered (or would have been delivered but for the provisions of this Section 6(d) and the related suspension period remains in effect, the Issuer will so notify Subscriber, within one (1) business day of Subscriber’s notification to the Issuer, by delivering to Subscriber a copy of such previous notice of Suspension Event, and thereafter will provide Subscriber with the related notice of the conclusion of such Suspension Event immediately upon its availability.

(e) For purposes of this Section 6, “Acquired Shares” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the Acquired Shares purchased by Subscriber pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and any other equity security issued or issuable with respect to such Acquired Shares by way of share split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, replacement or similar event, and “Subscriber” shall include any person to whom the rights under this Section 6 shall have been duly assigned.

(f) Issuer shall indemnify Subscriber (to the extent a seller under the Registration Statement), notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, its officers, directors, partners, members, managers, employees, stockholders, advisers and agents, and each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and officers, directors, partners, members, managers, employees, stockholders, advisers and agents of each such controlling person to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, to the extent such Losses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or incorporated by reference therein), any prospectus included in the Registration Statement or any form of prospectus or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to 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, that such untrue statements or alleged untrue statements or omissions or alleged omissions, are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to Issuer by Subscriber expressly for use therein or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Issuer of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 6; provided, that the indemnification contained in this Section 6 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Issuer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed),.

(g) Subscriber shall, severally and not jointly with any Other Subscriber, indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, its directors, officers, agents and employees, and each person who controls the Issuer (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the extent such Losses arise out of or are based upon 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 arising out of or relating to 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 any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or alleged untrue statements, or omissions, or alleged omissions, are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to the Issuer by Subscriber expressly for use therein; provided that (i) the liability of Subscriber shall be several and not joint with any other investor and (ii) in no event shall the liability of Subscriber exceed the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Acquired Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Subscriber shall notify the Issuer promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 6 of which Subscriber is aware.

(h) If the indemnification provided under this Section 6 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 6 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 6 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Each indemnifying party’s obligation to make a contribution pursuant to this Section 6(h) 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 Acquired Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

7. 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 Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with the terms therein, (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(c) or Section 2(d) are not satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated at the Closing or (d) October 31, 2021, subject to extension in accordance with Section 10.1(f) of the Merger Agreement (as the same exists as of the date hereof); 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 Issuer shall promptly notify Subscriber of the termination of the Merger Agreement promptly after the termination of such agreement. Upon the termination of this Subscription Agreement in accordance with this Section 7, any monies paid by the Subscriber to the Issuer in connection herewith shall be promptly (and in any event within one (1) business day after such termination) returned to the Subscriber.

8. Trust Account Waiver. Subscriber acknowledges that the Issuer is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Issuer and one or more businesses or assets. Subscriber further acknowledges that, as described in the Issuer’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated August 4, 2020 (the “Prospectus”), available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of the Issuer’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of the Issuer’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 the Issuer, its public stockholders and the underwriters of the Issuer’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Issuer to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of the Issuer entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subscriber, on behalf of itself and its representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind they have or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, in each case, arising out of this Subscription Agreement, and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8 [(i) shall serve to limit or prohibit the Subscriber’s right to pursue a claim against Issuer for legal relief against assets held outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other equitable relief, (ii) shall serve to limit or prohibit any claims that the Subscriber may have in the future against Issuer’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account or (iii)] 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 Issuer 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 Issuer.

9. Exculpation of Placement Agents. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees for the express benefit of the Placement Agents, and their Affiliates and their Affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees or representatives that neither the Placement Agents, nor any of their Affiliates or any of their or their Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees or representatives shall be liable to any Subscriber, pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or any other subscription agreement related to the private placement of the Acquired Shares, the negotiation hereof or thereof or the subject matter hereof or thereof, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Acquired Shares by such Subscriber.
