In determining whether to make this investment, each of the Purchasers has relied solely on each of the Purchasers’ own knowledge and understanding of the Company and its business based upon each of the Purchasers’ own due diligence investigation and the information furnished pursuant to this paragraph. Each of the Purchasers understands that no person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representations which were not furnished pursuant to this Section 2 and each of the Purchasers has not relied on any other representations or information in making its investment decision, whether written or oral, relating to the Company, its operations and/or its prospects.

Each of the Purchasers is (i) sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and benefits of the investment in the Securities and (ii) able to bear the economic risk of his investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time because the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and therefore cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Each of the Purchasers has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in transactions of securities in companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its own interests. Each of the Purchasers must bear the economic risk of this investment until the Securities are sold pursuant to: (i) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; or (ii) an exemption from registration is available with respect to such sale. Each of the Purchasers is able to bear the economic risks of an investment in the Securities and to afford a complete loss each of the Purchasers’ investment in the Securities.

Each of the Purchasers is purchasing the Securities solely for investment purposes, for each of the Purchasers’ own account and not for the account or benefit of any other person, and not with a view towards the distribution or dissemination thereof and each of the Purchasers have no present arrangement to sell the interest in the Securities to or through any person or entity.
| 3 |
2.13. Restrictions on Transfer. Each of the Purchasers acknowledges and understands the Warrants are being offered in a transaction not involving a public offering in the United States within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act, and, if in the future, any of the Purchasers decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Securities, such Securities may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, (B) pursuant to an exemption from registration under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), if available, or (C) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state or any other jurisdiction. Each of the Purchasers agrees that if any transfer of its Securities or any interest therein is proposed to be made, as a condition precedent to any such transfer, such Purchaser may be required to deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company. Absent registration or another available exemption from registration, each of the Purchasers agrees it will not resell the Securities. Each of the Purchasers further acknowledges that because the Company is a shell company, Rule 144 may not be available to such Purchaser for the resale of the Securities until the one year anniversary following consummation of the initial Business Combination of the Company, despite technical compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 and the release or waiver of any contractual transfer restrictions.

8. Rescission Right Waiver and Indemnification
| 6 |
8.1. Rescission Waiver. Each of the Purchasers understands and acknowledges that an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act requires there be no general solicitation of purchasers of the Warrants. In this regard, if the Offering were deemed to be a general solicitation with respect to the Warrants, the offer and sale of such Warrants may not be exempt from registration and, if not, the Purchasers may have a right to rescind its purchase of the Warrants. In order to facilitate the completion of the Offering and in order to protect the Company, its shareholders and the Trust Account from claims that may adversely affect the Company or the interests of its shareholders, each of the Purchasers hereby agrees to waive, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any claims, right to xxx or rights in law or arbitration, as the case may be, to seek rescission of its purchase of the Warrants as a result of the issuance of the Warrants being deemed to be in violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act. Each of the Purchasers acknowledges and agrees this waiver is being made in order to induce the Company to sell the Warrants to the Purchasers. Each of the Purchasers agrees the foregoing waiver of rescission rights shall apply to any and all known or unknown actions, causes of action, suits, claims or proceedings (collectively, “Claims”) and related losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, whether compensatory, consequential or exemplary, and expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys’ and expert witness fees and disbursements and all other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any Claims, whether pending or threatened, in connection with any present or future actual or asserted right to rescind the purchase of the Warrants hereunder or relating to the purchase of the Warrants and the transactions contemplated hereby.
8.2. No Recourse Against Trust Account. Each of the Purchasers agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever in connection with its purchase of the Warrants or any Claim that may arise now or in the future.
8.3. Section 8 Waiver. Each of the Purchasers agrees that to the extent any waiver of rights under this Section 8 is ineffective as a matter of law, each of the Purchasers have offered such waiver for the benefit of the Company as an equitable right that shall survive any statutory disqualification or bar that applies to a legal right. Each of the Purchasers acknowledges the receipt and sufficiency of consideration received from the Company hereunder in this regard.
9. Terms of the Warrant
The Warrants shall be substantially identical to the warrants included in the units offered in the IPO as set forth in the Warrant Agreement, except the Warrants: (i) will be subject to the transfer restrictions described herein, (ii) are being purchased pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and will become freely tradable only after certain conditions are met or the resale of the Warrants is registered under the Securities Act, (iii) will be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the Purchasers or any of their permitted transferees, (iv) are exercisable for cash or on a “cashless” basis if held by the Purchasers or any of their permitted transferees and (v) may not be exercised after five years from the effective date of the Company’s registration statement relating to the IPO so long as they are held by the Purchasers or any of their permitted transferees.

In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or any other form of electronic delivery, 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.
14. Survival; Severability
14.1. Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties hereto shall survive the Closing and one (1) year following the consummation of an initial Business Combination.
14.2. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision; provided that no such severability shall be effective if it materially changes the economic benefit of this Agreement to any party.

| 8 |
16. Construction
The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. 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 Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this 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 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.
