Investor, SPAC and Sponsor are referred to in this Agreement individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”

WHEREAS, on February 2, 2023, SPAC held a special meeting of stockholders during which SPAC’s stockholders approved a proposal to extend the date by which the SPAC must consummate the De- SPAC from February 17, 2023 to August 17, 2023, and on August 2, 2023, SPAC held a special meeting of stockholders during which SPAC’s stockholders approved a proposal to extend the date by which the SPAC must consummate the De- SPAC from August 17, 2023 to February 17, 2024;

WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, SPAC has not completed the De-SPAC and Sponsor may seek to extend the date by which the SPAC must consummate the De-SPAC for an additional period to be determined (“Extension”);

WHEREAS, Sponsor is seeking to raise funds from existing SPAC investors which will in turn be loaned by the Sponsor to the SPAC to cover working capital expenses and to fund the Extension (“SPAC Loan”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Investor has agreed to fund $440,000 to Sponsor (the “Investor’s Capital Contribution”) in return for the Subscription Shares (as defined below);

WHEREAS, SPAC will pay all principal under the SPAC Loan to Sponsor at the closing of the De-SPAC transaction (the “De-SPAC Closing”), in accordance with section 1.5 below, the Investor will be entitled to receive from the Sponsor an amount equal to the Investor’s Capital Contribution as a return of capital; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, which are incorporated in this Agreement as if fully set forth below, and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreement contained in this Agreement, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

SUBSCRIPTION AND RETURN OF CAPITAL

1.1

Capital Calls. From time to time, the SPAC will request funds from the Sponsor for working capital purposes (each a “Drawdown Request”). On at least five (5) calendar days’ prior written notice (“Capital Notice”), the Sponsor may request a drawdown from the Investor against the Investor’s Capital Contribution in order to meet the Sponsor’s commitment to the SPAC under a Drawdown Request (each, a “Capital Call”) subject to the following conditions:

1.1.1

The Capital Notice to the Investor shall include (i) the total amount requested by the SPAC under the Drawdown Request and (ii) the amount being called from the Investor;

1.1.2

The aggregate amount of the Capital Calls requested hereunder shall not exceed the Investor’s Capital Contribution;

1.1.3

An initial Capital Call of up to $110,000 of the Investor’s Capital Contribution (“Initial Capital Call”) may be paid by the Investor to the Sponsor by wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to the wiring instructions separately provided within five (5) business days of this Agreement or on such date as the Parties may agree in writing (such date, the “Closing”);

1.1.4

Subsequent Capital Calls (each Capital Call being no more than $110,000 of the Investor’s Capital Contribution) may be called by the Sponsor on each monthly anniversary of the date hereof for the following three months;

For greater certainty, Sponsor has the right but no obligation to make Capital Call(s) in its sole discretion, and no Capital Calls may be made after the termination or expiry of this Agreement. All Capital Calls shall be made by the Investor to the Sponsor within five (5) calendar days of receiving a Capital Notice except for the Initial Capital Call which shall be funded at Closing. Investor shall advance the Capital Call amount specified in the Capital Notice to the Sponsor by wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to the wiring instructions separately provided.

1.2

Subscription. In consideration of the Capital Calls funded by the Investor and received by the Sponsor (such funded amounts, being the Investor’s “Capital Investment”), Sponsor will transfer and assign 880,000 shares of SPAC’s common stock (“Common Stock”) currently held by Sponsor in consideration for the Capital Investment that has been funded as of or prior to the De-SPAC Closing (“Subscription Shares”). Such assignment and transfer will be completed no later than two (2) business days following the De-SPAC Closing. Concurrently with the transfer of the Subscription Shares, Sponsor shall also transfer and assign any registration rights it may have over such Subscription Shares pursuant to any registration rights agreement or similar agreement that it may have entered into, with inter alios, SPAC.

1.3

Restrictions. Upon transfer and assignment of the Subscription Shares in accordance with Section 1.2, and subject to stockholder approval described below, the Subscription Shares shall not be subject to any transfer restrictions or any other lock-up provisions, earn outs, or other contingencies. For purposes of clarity, following the De-SPAC Closing, the Subscription Shares will not be subject to forfeiture or lockup and, notwithstanding anything contained in any agreement to which Sponsor or the Investor Shares (as defined below) is or are subject, Investor shall not be required to forfeit or transfer the Investor Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that (i) the Subscription Shares consist of SPAC founder shares currently held by the Sponsor; and (ii) all such SPAC founder shares currently held by the Sponsor are held in escrow and subject to the lock-up restrictions set forth in the escrow agreement dated as of August 12, 2021. At the stockholder meeting to be held by the SPAC to approve the initial business combination, the SPAC shall present to its stockholders for their approval a proposal to release the Subscription Shares from the escrow agreement free and clear of such lock-up restriction as of the De-SPAC Closing.

1.4

Registration. The Sponsor and SPAC shall ensure that the Investor Shares (i) to the extent feasible and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations shall be registered for resale as part of any registration statement issuing shares before or in connection with the De-SPAC Closing, or (ii) if no such registration statement is filed in connection with the De-SPAC Closing, shall promptly be registered for resale pursuant to the first registration statement filed by the SPAC or the surviving entity following the De-SPAC Closing, which shall be filed no later than 45 days after the De-SPAC Closing and declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission no later than 150 days after the De-SPAC Closing (the “Registration Requirement”). The SPAC or the surviving entity following the De-SPAC Closing will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide a draft of such registration statement to the Investor for review at least two (2) business days in advance of filing the registration statement; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the SPAC or the surviving entity following the De-SPAC Closing be required to delay or postpone the filing of such registration statement as a result of or in connection with Investor’s review. Without modifying the foregoing and in furtherance of Sponsor and SPAC’s obligations under this Section 1.4, upon the reasonable request of Sponsor or SPAC, Investor agrees to (and shall cause any of its permitted assigns to agree to), solely in relation to the Subscription Shares, enter into a joinder agreement relating to any registration or investor rights agreement (each a “Joinder”) which the Sponsor is or becomes subject to, as at the De-SPAC Closing. If the Investor is required to enter into a Joinder, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Investor shall be released with respect to the Subscription Shares from any transfer or lock-up restrictions under the relevant underlying agreements to the same extent as any other holder of SPAC founder shares, (including the Sponsor) is released from such restrictions. Except as envisaged by this Agreement, the Sponsor shall not sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of any SPAC securities owned by the Sponsor until the Capital Investment has been repaid to the Investor as a return of capital, the Investor Shares have been transferred or issued (as applicable) to the Investor and the Registration Requirement has been complied with.

1.5

Return of Capital. The SPAC Loan shall not accrue interest and shall be repaid by the SPAC to the Sponsor upon the De-SPAC Closing. Upon such repayment from the SPAC to the Sponsor, an amount equal to the Capital Investment will be paid by the Sponsor to the Investor as a return of capital within 5 business days of the De-SPAC Closing. The SPAC and Sponsor shall be jointly and severally obligated for such payment. SPAC shall provide a final draft of the flow of funds one business day prior to the De-SPAC Closing itemizing the return of capital due to the Investor, and Investor shall be invited and permitted to attend any closing call in connection with the De-SPAC Closing. The Investor may elect at the De-SPAC Closing to receive the repayment of its Capital Investment in cash or shares of Common Stock. If the Investor elects to receive such repayment in shares, then Sponsor will transfer, or SPAC (or the surviving entity following the De-SPAC Closing) will issue to the Investor, shares of the SPAC’s Common Stock at a rate of 1 share of Common Stock for each $10 of the Investor’s Capital Investment hereunder. If the SPAC liquidates without consummating a De-SPAC, and subject to applicable law, any amounts remaining in the Sponsor or SPAC’s cash accounts, not including the SPAC’s trust account, will be paid to the Investor within five (5) days of the liquidation, up to the amount of the Capital Investment in full satisfaction of any amounts due hereunder.

1.6

Default. In the event that Sponsor or SPAC defaults in its obligations under Section 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 or 1.5 of this Agreement and in the event that such default continues for a period of five (5) business days following written notice to the Sponsor and SPAC (the “Default Date”), SPAC (or the surviving entity following the De-SPAC Closing) shall immediately issue to Investor 220,000 shares of SPAC Common Stock (the “Default Shares” and together with the Subscription Shares, the “Investor Shares”) on the Default Date and shall issue an additional 220,000 Default Shares on each monthly anniversary of the Default Date thereafter, until the default is cured; provided however, that in no event will SPAC (or the surviving entity following the De-SPAC Closing) issue, any Default Shares to Investor that would result in Investor (together with any other persons whose

beneficial ownership of SPAC’s Common Stock would be aggregated with Investor’s for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including any “group” of which Investor is a member) beneficially owning more than 19.9% of the outstanding shares of SPAC Common Stock (“Ownership Limit”); provided further than any Default Shares that were not issued to Investor because the issuance of such shares would have exceeded the Ownership Limit shall be promptly issued to Investor upon written request from Investor to extent that, at the time of such request, such issuance would no longer exceed the Ownership Limit. Any such Default Shares received pursuant to this Section 1.6 shall be subject to the Registration Requirement if a registration statement covering such shares is not effective at the time the Default Shares are issued to Investor, and if a registration statement has been declared effective, such Default Shares shall be promptly registered, and in any event will be registered within 45 days. In the event that Investor notifies Sponsor and SPAC of any default pursuant to this Section 1.6, Sponsor shall not sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of any SPAC securities owned by the Sponsor, other than in accordance with this Agreement, until such default is cured.

1.7

Reimbursement. On the De-SPAC Closing, the Sponsor will pay the Investor an amount equal to the reasonable attorney fees incurred by the Investor in connection with this Agreement not to exceed $5,000.

This Agreement will be valid and binding on each Party and enforceable against such Party in accordance with its terms, except as the same may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent transfer or conveyance, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors rights generally and general equitable principles, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity.

2.2

Acknowledgement. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the Investor Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or under any state securities laws and the Investor represents that, as applicable, it (a) is acquiring the Investor Shares pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act with no present intention to distribute them to any person in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable U.S. state securities laws, (b) will not sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Investor Shares, except in compliance with the registration requirements or exemption provisions of the Securities Act and any applicable U.S.

state securities laws, (c) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and in investments of this type that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment and related economic terms hereunder and of making an informed investment decision, and has conducted a review of the business and affairs of the SPAC that it considers sufficient and reasonable for purposes of making the investment and subscription, and (d) is an “accredited investor” (as that term is defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act). Each Party acknowledges and agrees that this subscription will not be treated as indebtedness for U.S. tax purposes.

2.3

Trust Waiver. Investor acknowledges that the SPAC is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a business combination and that a trust account has been established by the SPAC in connection with its initial public offering (“Trust Account”). Investor waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it now 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 for any claims in connection with, as a result of, or arising out of this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.3 shall (a) serve to limit or prohibit Investor’s right to pursue a claim against the SPAC for legal relief against assets outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other relief, (b) serve to limit or prohibit any claims that Investor may have in the future against the SPAC’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds), or (c) be deemed to limit Investor’s right, title, interest or claim to the Trust Account by virtue of Investor’s record or beneficial ownership of securities of the SPAC acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to any redemption right with respect to any such securities of the SPAC.

2.5

Restricted Securities. Investor hereby represents, acknowledges and warrants its representation of, understanding of and confirmation of the following:

•

Investor realizes that, unless subject to an effective registration statement, the Investor Shares cannot readily be sold as they will be restricted securities and therefore the Investor Shares must not be accepted unless Investor has liquid assets sufficient to assure that Investor can provide for current needs and possible personal contingencies;

•

Investor understands that, because SPAC is a former “shell company” as contemplated under paragraph (i) of Rule 144, regardless of the amount of time that the Investor holds the Investor Shares, sales of the Investor Shares may only be made under Rule 144 upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including that SPAC is no longer a ‘shell company’ and that SPAC has not been a ‘shell company’ for at least the last 12 months—i.e., that no sales of Investor Shares can be made pursuant to Rule 144 until at least 12 months after the De-SPAC; and SPAC has filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, during the 12 months preceding the sale, all quarterly and annual reports required under the Exchange Act;

•

Investor confirms and represents that it is able (i) to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Investor Shares, (ii) to hold the Investor Shares for an indefinite period of time, and (iii) to afford a complete loss of the Investor Shares; and

•

Investor understands and agrees that, until the Investor Shares have been registered pursuant to a registration statement, a legend has been or will be placed on any certificate(s) or other document(s) evidencing the Investor Shares in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED OR ANY STATE SECURITIES ACT. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS (I) THEY SHALL HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES ACT, OR (II) AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, EXISTS.”

The SPAC shall take all steps necessary in order to remove the legend referenced in the preceding paragraph from the Investor Shares immediately following the earlier of (a) the effectiveness of a registration statement applicable to the Investor Shares or (b) any other applicable exception to the restrictions described in the legend occurs.
