Purchaser’s Representations, Warranties and Covenants In order to induce the Issuer to sell and issue the Securities to the Purchaser under one or more exemptions from registration under the Securities Act, the Purchasers, severally and not jointly, represent and warrant to the Issuer, and covenant with the Issuer, that:
(i) Such Purchaser has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, and each of the other agreements entered into by the parties hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the "Transaction Documents"), and to purchase the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof.
(ii) The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Purchaser and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by the Purchaser's organizational documents and no further consent or authorization is required by the Purchaser.
(iii) The Transaction Documents have been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Purchaser.
(iv) The Transaction Documents, and each of them, constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of creditors' rights and remedies.
(b) The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Purchaser and the consummation by the Purchaser of the transactions contemplated thereby will not conflict with or constitute a default under any agreement or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which the Purchaser is bound.
(c) The Purchaser is acquiring the Securities for investment for its own account, and not with a view toward distribution thereof, and with no present intention of dividing its interest with others or reselling or otherwise transferring or disposing all or any portion of either the Notes or Warrants. The undersigned has not offered or sold a participation in this purchase of either the Notes or Warrants, and will not offer or sell any interest therein. The Purchaser further acknowledges that the Purchaser does not have in mind any sale of either the Notes or Warrants currently or after the passage of a fixed or determinable period of time or upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any predetermined events or consequence; and that it has no present or contemplated agreement, undertaking, arrangement, obligation, indebtedness or commitment providing for or which is likely to compel a disposition of either the Notes or Warrants and is not aware of any circumstances presently in existence that are likely in the future to prompt a disposition thereof.
(e) The Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities have been offered to it in direct communication between itself and the Issuer and not through any advertisement of any kind.
(f) The Purchaser acknowledges that the Issuer has given it access to all information relating to the Issuer’s business that it has requested. The Purchaser has reviewed all materials relating to the Issuer's business, finance and operations which it has requested and the Purchaser has reviewed all of such materials as the Purchaser, in the Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion shall have deemed necessary or desirable. The Purchaser has had an opportunity to discuss the business, management and financial affairs of the Issuer with the Issuer's management. Specifically but not by way of limitation, the Purchaser acknowledges the Issuer’s publicly available filings made periodically with the SEC, which filings are available at xxx.xxx.xxx and which filings the Purchaser acknowledges reviewing or having had the opportunity of reviewing.
(g) The Purchaser acknowledges that it has, by reason of its business and financial experience, such knowledge, sophistication and experience in financial and business matters and in making investment decisions of this type that it is capable of (i) evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and making an informed investment decision in connection therewith; (ii) protecting its own interest; and (iii) bearing the economic risk of such investment for an indefinite period of time for Securities which are not transferable or freely tradable. The undersigned hereby agrees to indemnify the Issuer thereof and to hold each of such persons and entities, and the officers, directors and employees thereof harmless against all liability, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising by reason of or in connection with any misrepresentation or any breach of warranties of the undersigned contained in this Agreement, or arising as a result of the sale or distribution of the Securities or the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants, by the undersigned in violation of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or any other applicable law, either federal or state. This subscription and the representations and warranties contained herein shall be binding upon the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the Purchaser

If the Purchaser is not a resident of the United States, the Purchaser is not a “U.S. person[s]” as that term is defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
(i) During the term of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Purchaser will comply with the provisions of Section 9 of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, with respect to transactions involving the Common Stock. During the term of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Purchaser agrees not to sell the Issuer's Common Stock short or engage in any hedging transactions in the Issuer’s Common Stock, either directly or indirectly, through its affiliates, principals, agents or advisors.
(j) The Purchaser is aware of the restrictions of transferability of both the Notes and the Warrants, and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants, and further understands and acknowledges that any certificates evidencing the Notes, the Warrants or the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants will bear the legends in substantially the following form:
(k) The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that following the purchase of the Notes, the Warrants and any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants, each may only be disposed of pursuant to either (i) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (ii) an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
(l) The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the Issuer has neither filed a registration statement with the SEC or any state authorities nor agreed to do so, nor contemplates doing so in the future for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, and in the absence of such a registration statement or exemption, the undersigned may have to hold the Notes, the Warrants and any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants, indefinitely and may be unable to liquidate any of them in case of an emergency.
(m) The Purchaser is purchasing the Notes and Warrants, and will acquire any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants, for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view towards distribution and agrees to resell or otherwise dispose of any of the Notes or the Warrants, or any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants, in accordance with the registration provisions of the Securities Act (or pursuant to an exemption from such registration provisions).
(n) The Purchaser is not and will not be required to be registered as a "dealer" under the Exchange Act, either as a result of its execution and performance of its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise.

Survival of Seller’s Representations and Warranties The representation and warranty of Seller set forth in Section 5.1(a) shall survive Closing and shall be a continuing representation and warranty without limitation. All other representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 5.1, shall survive Closing for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days. No claim for a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller shall be actionable or payable (a) if the breach in question results from or is based on a condition, state of facts or other matter which was known to Purchaser prior to Closing, (b) unless the valid claims for all such breaches collectively aggregate more than Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) (the "Floor"), in which event the full amount of such valid claims shall be actionable up to the cap set forth in the following sentence, and (c) unless written notice containing a description of the specific nature of such breach shall have been given by Purchaser to Seller prior to the expiration of said one hundred eighty (180) day period and an action shall have been commenced by Purchaser against Seller within two hundred twenty (220) days of Closing. Further Purchaser agrees that any recovery against Seller for any breach of Seller's covenants, agreements, representations and warranties hereunder or under any other agreement, document, certificate or instrument delivered by Seller to Purchaser, or under any law applicable to the Property or this transaction, shall be limited to Purchaser's actual damages not in excess of One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate and that in no event shall Purchaser be entitled to seek or obtain any other damages of any kind, including, without limitation, consequential, indirect or punitive damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Floor and the cap will not apply to actual damages incurred by Purchaser to the extent such damage was caused by Seller's fraud.

(a) Seller owns all Purchased Notes free and clear of all liens, pledges, encumbrances, security agreements, equities, options, claims, charges and restrictions of any nature whatsoever, except any restrictions under applicable state and federal securities laws, and has not previously entered into any commitment for the sale of all or part of such Purchased Notes or otherwise conveyed or encumbered Seller’s interest with respect to the Purchased Notes.

(c) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Seller and the performance by Seller of his, her, or its obligations pursuant to this Agreement will not result in any material violation of, or materially conflict with, or constitute a material default under, any agreement to which Seller is a party or such Seller’s charter documents, nor, to such Seller’s knowledge, result in the creation of any material mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of the Purchased Notes, other than pursuant to this Agreement.

Disclaimer of Other Representations and Warranties EACH PURCHASER (INDIVIDUALLY AND ON BEHALF OF ITS EQUITYHOLDERS) ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NEITHER THE COMPANY NOR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THE SIGNING DATE AGREEMENTS OR IN ANY CERTIFICATE DELIVERED BY THE COMPANY TO EITHER PURCHASER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS THEREOF, AND SPECIFICALLY (BUT WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING) THAT, EXCEPT FOR THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THE SIGNING DATE AGREEMENTS, NEITHER THE COMPANY NOR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO (X) ANY PROJECTIONS, ESTIMATES OR BUDGETS OF THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES DELIVERED OR MADE AVAILABLE TO EITHER PURCHASER (OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES OR REPRESENTATIVES) OF FUTURE (I) REVENUES, (II) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (OR ANY COMPONENT THEREOF), (III) CASH FLOWS OR (IV) FINANCIAL CONDITION (OR ANY COMPONENT THEREOF) OF THE COMPANY AND/OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR (Y) THE FUTURE BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY AND/OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES.
INVESTOR'S REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS The Investor represents and warrants to the Company, and covenants, that:
Buyer’s Representations, Warranties and Covenants Buyer represents, warrants and covenants:
Investment Representations (i) The Purchaser is acquiring the Private Placement Warrants and, upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, the Shares issuable upon such exercise (collectively, the “Securities”) for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, any public sale or distribution thereof.
(ii) The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D, and the Purchaser has not experienced a disqualifying event as enumerated pursuant to Rule 506(d) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.
(iii) The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and will be sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire such Securities.
(iv) The Purchaser did not decide to enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act.
(v) The Purchaser has been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the executive officers and directors of the Company. The Purchaser understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and it has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of the Securities.
(vi) The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities by the Purchaser nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.
(vii) The Purchaser understands that: (a) the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (1) subsequently registered thereunder or (2) sold in reliance on an exemption therefrom; and (b) except as specifically set forth in the Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement, neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register the Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. In this regard, the Purchaser understands that the SEC has taken the position that promoters or affiliates of a blank check company and their transferees, both before and after an initial Business Combination, are deemed to be “underwriters” under the Securities Act when reselling the securities of a blank check company. Based on that position, Rule 144 adopted pursuant to the Securities Act would not be available for resale transactions of the Securities despite technical compliance with the requirements of such Rule, and the Securities can be resold only through a registered offering or in reliance upon another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
(viii) The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, knowledge of the high degree of risk associated with investments in the securities of companies in the development stage such as the Company, is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities in the amount contemplated hereunder for an indefinite period of time. The Purchaser has adequate means of providing for its current financial needs and contingencies and will have no current or anticipated future needs for liquidity which would be jeopardized by the investment in the Securities. The Purchaser can afford a complete loss of its investments in the Securities.
(ix) The Purchaser understands that the Private Placement Warrants shall bear the legend substantially in the form set forth in the Warrant Agreement.
