If the Investor is a financial institution subject to the Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. Section 5311 et seq.) (the “BSA”), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (the “PATRIOT Act”), and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), the Investor maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. To the extent required, the Investor maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with OFAC-administered sanctions programs, including for the screening of its investors against the OFAC sanctions programs, including the OFAC List. To the extent required by applicable law, the Investor maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by the Investor and used to purchase the Securities were legally derived and were not obtained, directly or indirectly, from a Prohibited Investor.

p. [Reserved.]

q. [Reserved.]

r. In connection with the issue and purchase of the Securities, none of the Company, Electriq Power nor any of their respective affiliates have acted as the Investor’s financial advisor or fiduciary.

s. [Reserved.]

t. The Investor has or has commitments to have, and, when required to deliver payment to the Company pursuant to Section 2 above, will have, sufficient funds to pay the Subscription Amount and consummate the purchase and sale of the Securities when required pursuant to this Agreement.

u. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that it is not an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act and that the purchase and sale of Securities hereunder meets the exemptions from filing under FINRA Rule 5123(b)(1).

v. The Investor acknowledges that certain information provided to it was based on projections, and such projections were prepared based on assumptions and estimates that are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the projections.

7. Registration Rights.

a. The Company agrees that, as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any case no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction), it will file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the Subscribed Shares acquired by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement and the Shares issuable upon the mandatory redemption of the Preferred Shares acquired by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement, and it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof. The Company agrees to cause such Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the Securities to be sold pursuant to this Agreement, to remain effective until the earliest of (i) the fourth (4th) anniversary of the Closing, (ii) the date on which the Investor ceases to hold any Securities issued pursuant to this Agreement, or (iii) the first date on which the Investor can sell all of its Securities issued pursuant to this Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 of the Securities Act within ninety (90) days without volume or manner of sale limitations. The Investor agrees to disclose its ownership to the Company upon request to assist it in making the determination described above. The Company may amend the Registration Statement so as to convert the Registration Statement into a Registration Statement on Form S-3 at such time as the Company becomes eligible to use such Form S-3. The Investor agrees that the Company may suspend the use of any such registration statement, if it determines that in order for such registration statement not to 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; provided, however, that the Company may not suspend the Registration statement for more than ninety (90) total calendar days during any twelve (12)-month period. The Investor may deliver written notice (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the Company requesting that the Investor not receive notices from the Company regarding the suspension of the Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Investor may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from the Investor (unless subsequently revoked), (i) the Company shall not deliver any such notices to the Investor and the Investor shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with any such notice and (ii) each time prior to the Investor’s intended use of an effective Registration Statement, the Investor will notify the Company in writing at least two (2) business days in advance of such intended use, and if a notice of a suspension was previously delivered (or would have been delivered but for the provisions of this Section and the related suspension period remains in effect), the Company will so notify the Investor, within one (1) business day after the Investor’s notification to the Company, by delivering to the Investor a copy of such previous notice of suspension, and thereafter will provide the Investor with the related notice of the conclusion of such suspension promptly following its availability.

b. The Company’s obligations to include the Securities issued pursuant to this Agreement (or shares issued in exchange therefor) for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the Investor furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding the Investor, the securities of the Company held by the Investor and the intended method of disposition of such Securities as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of such Securities, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations provided that the Investor shall not in connection with the foregoing be required by the Company to execute any lockup or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restriction with the Company on the ability to transfer the Securities. In no event shall the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the SEC; provided, that if the SEC requests that the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Investor will have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (1) have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement, in which case the Company’s obligation to register the Securities will be deemed satisfied, or (2) be included as such in the Registration Statement.

c. At the Company’s expense, the Company shall (i) advise the Investor within five (5) business days (1) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose; and (2) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company shall not, when so advising the Investor of such events, provide the Investor with any material nonpublic information regarding the Company other than to the extent that providing notice to the Investor of the occurrence of the events listed in clauses (1) and (2) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding the Company.

d. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Investor, its directors, and officers, employees, and agents, and each person who controls the Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of the Investor (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included in any Registration Statement or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein.

e. The Investor agrees, severally and not jointly with any person that is a party to the Other Securities Purchase Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of the Investor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Investor upon the sale of the Securities purchased pursuant to this Agreement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

f. Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) permit such indemnifying party to assume

the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without the indemnifying party’s consent. An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

g. The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director, employee, agent, affiliate or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Securities purchased pursuant to this Agreement.

h. If the indemnification provided under this Section 7 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; provided, however, that in no event shall the liability of the Investor be greater than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Investor upon the sale of the Securities purchased pursuant to this Agreement, giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 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 or on behalf of, 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 deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, 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 7 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

i. With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 that may, at such times as Rule 144 is available to shareholders of the Company, permit the Investor to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company agrees, for so long as the Securities are held by the Investor: (i) to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; and (ii) to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and so long as the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144.

j. Promptly following the date on which the sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the removal of the restrictive legend included on the Securities and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the Investor or issue to the Investor a book entry statement without such legend notated thereon. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent and all DTC fees associated with such issuance. To the extent required by the transfer agent, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its legal counsel to deliver a customary opinion within two (2) business days of the delivery of all reasonably necessary representations and other documentation from the Investor as reasonably requested by the Company, its counsel or the transfer agent by the Investor to the transfer agent to the effect that the removal of the restrictive legend in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Issuer will not be required to deliver any such opinion, authorization, certificate or direction if it reasonably believes that removal of the legend could result in or facilitate transfers of securities in violation of applicable law.

8. Short Sales Agreement. The Investor hereby agrees that, from the date of this Agreement, none of the Investor, its controlled affiliates, or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or any of its controlled affiliates or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor or any of its controlled affiliates will engage in any Short Sales with respect to securities of the Company. For purposes of this Section 8, “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). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing herein shall prohibit other entities under common management with the Investor that have no knowledge of this Agreement or of the Investor’s participation in the Transaction (including the Investor’s controlled affiliates and/or affiliates) from entering into any Short Sales and (ii) in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of the Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of the Investor’s assets, this Section 8 shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Subscription Amount covered by this Agreement.

9. Termination. This 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 earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Agreement, (c) the Termination Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement), if the Closing has not occurred on or prior to such date, and (d) if any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement are not satisfied or waived, or are not capable of being satisfied, on or prior to the Closing and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not be and are not consummated at the Closing; 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 any such willful breach. The Company shall notify the Investor of the termination of the Transaction Agreement promptly after the termination of such agreement.

10. Trust Account Waiver. The Investor acknowledges that the Company is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses or assets. The Investor further acknowledges that, as described in the Company’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated January 27, 2021 (the “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 placement of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for

the benefit of the Company, its public shareholders and the underwriter of the Company’s 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 Prospectus. For and in consideration of the Company entering into this Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Investor hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, 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 10 shall be deemed to limit the Investor’s right, title, interest or claim to any monies held in the Trust Account by virtue of its record or beneficial ownership of Class A Shares acquired by means other than pursuant to this Agreement.

11. Miscellaneous.

a. The Company may request from the Investor such additional information as the Company may deem necessary to register the resale of the Securities and evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the Securities, and the Investor shall reasonably promptly provide such information as may reasonably be requested, to the extent readily available and to the extent consistent with its internal policies and procedures; provided, that, the Company agrees to keep any such information provided by the Investor confidential other than as necessary to include in any registration statement the Company is required to file hereunder. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that if it does not provide the Company with such requested information, the Company may not be able to register the Securities acquired by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement for resale pursuant to Section 7 hereof. The Investor hereby agrees that its identity and the Agreement, as well as the nature of the Investor’s obligations hereunder, may be disclosed in any public announcement or disclosure required by the SEC and in any registration statement, proxy statement, consent solicitation statement or any other SEC filing to be filed by the Company in connection with the issuance of Securities contemplated by this Agreement and/or the Transaction.

b. The Investor acknowledges that the Company, and Electriq Power (as third party beneficiaries with the right to enforce Section 4, Section 5, Section 6, Section 11 and Section 12 hereof) will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify the Company if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties set forth in Section 6 above are no longer accurate in any material respect (other than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case the Investor shall notify the Company if they are no longer accurate in all respects). The Investor agrees that each purchase by the Investor of Securities from the Company will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein (as modified by any such notice) by the Investor as of the time of such purchase. Prior to the Closing, each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other party hereto if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties made by such party as set forth herein are no longer accurate in all material respects.

c. [Reserved.]

d. The Company, Electriq Power (as a third party beneficiary) and the Investor are each entitled to rely upon this Agreement and each is irrevocably authorized to produce this Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby.

e. All of the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Agreement shall survive the Closing.

f. This Agreement may not be modified, waived or terminated (other than pursuant to the terms of Section 9 above) except by an instrument in writing, signed by each of the parties hereto. No failure or delay of either party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have hereunder.

g. This Agreement (including the schedule 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. Except as set forth in Section 11(d) and Section 11(k) with respect to the persons specifically referenced therein, and their right to enforce payment of the Subscription Amount in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successor and assigns.

h. Except as otherwise provided herein, this 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 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 Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

j. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

k. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages, to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this 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 parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Electriq Power shall be entitled to seek specifically and enforce the Investor’s obligations to fund the Subscription Amount in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

l. Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and either delivered personally, emailed or sent by overnight mail via a reputable overnight carrier, or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, and shall be deemed to be given and received (i) when so delivered personally, (ii) when sent, with no mail undeliverable or other rejection notice, if sent by email, or (iii) three (3) business days after the date of mailing to the address below or to such other address or addresses as such person may hereafter designate by notice given hereunder:

12. Non-Reliance and Exculpation. The Investor acknowledges that it is not relying upon, and has not relied upon, any statement, representation or warranty made by any person, firm or corporation (including, without limitation, the Company, Electriq Power or any of the respective affiliates and any of the respective subsidiaries, control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing), other than the statements, representations and warranties of the Company expressly contained in Section 5 of this Agreement, in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company. The Investor agrees that none of (i) any other investor pursuant to, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any Other Securities Purchase Agreement related to the private placement of the Securities (including the respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents, and any representatives of any of the foregoing) or (ii) any other party to the Transaction Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, other than the Company), including any such party’s representatives, affiliates or any of its or their control persons, officers, directors, employees or representatives that is not a party hereto, shall be liable to the Investor, or to any other investor, pursuant to this Agreement or any Other Securities Purchase Agreement related to the private placement of the Securities, the negotiation hereof or thereof or its subject matter, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including, without limitation, for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Securities or with respect to any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) for breach of this Agreement or in respect of any written or oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith, as expressly provided herein, or for any actual or alleged inaccuracies, misstatements or omissions with respect to any information or materials of any kind furnished by the Company, Electriq Power or any Non-Party Affiliates concerning the Company, Electriq Power or any of the respective affiliates and any of the respective subsidiaries, control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of the foregoing, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. For purposes of this Agreement, “Non-Party Affiliates” means each former, current or future officer, director, employee, partner, member, manager, direct or indirect equityholder or affiliate of the Company, Electriq Power or any of the respective affiliates or any of their respective subsidiaries, control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives or any family member of the foregoing.

13. Disclosure. The Company shall within the time period required by the Exchange Act following the date of this Agreement, issue one or more press releases or file with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K (collectively, the “Disclosure Document”) disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Other Securities Purchase Agreements, the Transaction and any other material, nonpublic information that the Company has provided to the Investor at any time prior to the filing of the Disclosure Document. Upon the issuance of the Disclosure Document, to the knowledge of the Company, the Investor shall not be in possession of any material, nonpublic information received from the Company or any of its officers, directors, or employees or agents, and the Investor shall no longer be subject to any confidentiality or similar obligations under any current agreement, whether written or oral, with the Company or any of their respective affiliates, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

14. Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to any breach of any term or condition of this Agreement may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto and then only to the extent of the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party.

15. Independent Obligation. The obligations of the Investor under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Investor under any Other Securities Purchase Agreements, and the Investor shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Investor under any Other Securities Purchase Agreement. The decision of the Investor to purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by the Investor independently of any Other Investor and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or any of its subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any Other Investor or by any agent or employee of any Other Investor, and neither the Investor nor any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Other Investor (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein or in any Other Securities Purchase Agreement, and no action taken by the Investor or any Other Investors pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investor and Other Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investor and Other Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Other Securities Purchase Agreements. The Investor acknowledges that no Other Investor has acted as agent for the Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and no Other Investor will be acting as agent of the Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under this Agreement. The Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Investor or investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
