Based on such information as Subscriber has deemed appropriate and without reliance upon any Placement Agent, Subscriber has independently made his/her/its own analysis and decision to enter into the Subscription. Subscriber acknowledges that no disclosure or offering document has been prepared in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares. Except for the representations, warranties and agreements of the Issuer and Bridgetown 2 expressly set forth in this Subscription Agreement, Subscriber is relying exclusively on his/her/its own sources of information, investment analysis and the due diligence (including professional advice Subscriber deems appropriate) with respect to the Subscription, the Issuer Shares and the business, condition (financial and otherwise), management, operations, properties and prospects of the Issuer or the Company and its subsidiaries or relating to the REA Assets, including but not limited to all |
12
business, legal, regulatory, accounting, financial, credit and tax matters. Subscriber further acknowledges that the information provided to Subscriber is preliminary and subject to change.

Subscriber acknowledges that the status of the REA CPs or the failure of the REA Closing to be consummated shall not affect Subscriber’s obligations under this Subscription Agreement. |

6. | Trust Account Waiver. |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Subscriber acknowledges that it has had access to and has read and had an adequate opportunity to review the publicly filed prospectus of Bridgetown 2, available at xxx.xxx.xxx (the “Prospectus”) and understands that Bridgetown 2 has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and the overallotment shares acquired by its underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of Bridgetown 2’s public shareholders (including the public shareholders of the overallotment shares acquired by Bridgetown 2’s underwriters, the “Public Shareholders”), and that, except as otherwise described in the Prospectus, Bridgetown 2 may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (i) to the Public Shareholders with respect to redemptions by the Public Shareholders, (ii) to the Public Shareholders if Bridgetown 2 fails to consummate a Business Combination (as defined in the Prospectus) within twenty-four (24) months after the closing of the IPO, subject to extension by an amendment to Bridgetown 2’s organizational documents, (iii) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any taxes and up to $100,000 in dissolution expenses or (iv) to Bridgetown 2 after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination (as defined in the Prospectus).

18
and its affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, neither Subscriber nor any of its affiliates does now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) in connection with any claim that arises as a result of, in connection with, or relating to, this Subscription Agreement or any other Transaction Document, regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability under this Subscription Agreement or any other Transaction Document (collectively, the “Released Claims”); provided, however, that Released Claims shall be deemed not to include the right of a Subscriber to make a claim as a Public Shareholder in respect of any Bridgetown 2 shares it may hold pursuant to subclauses (i) or (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence. Subscriber on behalf of itself and its affiliates, hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that Subscriber or any of its affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) in connection with any Released Claims (including for an alleged breach of this Subscription Agreement). Subscriber agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Subscription Agreement and specifically relied upon by Bridgetown 2 and its affiliates to induce Bridgetown 2 to enter into this Subscription Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and Subscriber further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against Subscriber and each of its affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent Subscriber or any of its affiliates commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with or relating to any Released Claim, which action or proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against Bridgetown 2 or its representatives, Subscriber hereby acknowledges and agrees that Subscriber’s and each of its affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit Subscriber or its affiliates (or any person claiming on any of their behalves or in lieu of any of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event Subscriber or any of its affiliates commences any action or proceeding against Bridgetown 2, any of its affiliates or any of their respective representatives based upon, in connection with or relating to any Released Claim, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Shareholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief or otherwise, Bridgetown 2 and its representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from Subscriber and its affiliates the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such action, in the event Bridgetown 2 or its representatives, as applicable, prevails in such action or proceeding.

Any proceeding or action based upon, arising out of or related to this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby must be brought in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, to the extent such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware), or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and each of the parties irrevocably (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of |

7.12 | No Waiver of Rights, Powers and Remedies. No failure or delay by a party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Subscription Agreement, and no course of dealing between the parties hereto, shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy of such party.

The election of any remedy by a party hereto shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such party to pursue other available remedies. No notice to or demand on a party not expressly required under this Subscription Agreement shall entitle the party receiving such notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the party giving such notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without such notice or demand. |
7.13 | Remedies. |
(a) | The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if this Subscription Agreement was not performed or the Closing is not consummated in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damage. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to equitable relief, including in the form of an injunction or injunctions, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Subscription Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement in an appropriate court of |
24
competent jurisdiction as set forth in Section 7.10, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, including money damages. The right to specific enforcement shall include the right of the Issuer and Bridgetown 2 to cause Subscriber and the right of Bridgetown 2 to cause the Issuer to cause the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated on the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The parties hereto further agree (i) to waive any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with any such equitable remedy, (ii) not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement pursuant to this Section 7.13 is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable law or inequitable for any reason and (iii) to waive any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. |
(b) | The parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 7.13 is an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby and without that right, the parties hereto would not have entered into this Subscription Agreement. |
7.14 | Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made by the parties hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, if for any reason the Closing does not occur prior to the consummation of the Transactions Closing, all representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties hereunder shall survive the consummation of the Transactions Closing and remain in full force and effect. |
7.15 | Headings and Captions. The headings and captions of the various subdivisions of this Subscription Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify or affect the meaning or construction of any of the terms or provisions hereof. |
7.16 | Counterparts. This Subscription Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or any other form of electronic delivery (including .pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 (e.g., xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx)), such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof. |
7.17 | Construction. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The words “this Subscription Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Subscription Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance. If any party hereto has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which such party |
25
hereto has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party hereto is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant. All references in this Subscription Agreement to numbers of shares, per share amounts and purchase prices shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or the like occurring after the date hereof.
7.18 | Mutual Drafting. Each provision of this Subscription Agreement has been subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of the parties and shall not be construed for or against any party hereto. |

7.20 | Regulatory Compliance. Subscriber hereby agrees that it shall comply with all applicable requirements in connection with the Subscription and shall coordinate with the Issuer or Bridgetown 2, as applicable, to upon request provide information regarding the Subscriber as may reasonably be requested by any applicable governmental authority relating to the Subscription or the Transactions. |
