Tailwind Two Acquisition Corp.
000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx
Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This Subscription Agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) is being entered into as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto, by and between
Tailwind Two Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company, which shall be domesticated as a Delaware corporation prior to the closing of the Transaction (as defined herein) (“SPAC”), and the undersigned subscriber (the “Investor”),
in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among SPAC, Terran Orbital Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), and Titan Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, among other things, Company Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving
company in the merger and, after giving effect to such merger, will become a subsidiary of SPAC, on the terms and subject to the conditions therein (the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the merger, the “Transaction”).
In connection with the Transaction, SPAC is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase, following the Domestication (as defined below) and prior to the closing
of the Transaction, shares of SPAC’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), in a private placement for a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “Per Share Purchase Price”). On or about the date of this Subscription
Agreement, SPAC is entering into subscription agreements (the “Other Subscription Agreements” and together with the Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other investors (the “Other Investors” and
together with the Investor, the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Investors have agreed, severally and not jointly, to purchase on the closing date of the Transaction, inclusive of the Shares subscribed for by the Investor pursuant to this
Subscription Agreement, an aggregate amount of up to 5,080,409 Shares, at the Per Share Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the subscribed Shares (as set forth on the signature page hereto) is referred to
herein as the “Subscription Amount.” Prior to the closing of the Transaction (and as more fully described in the Merger Agreement), SPAC will domesticate as a Delaware corporation in accordance with Section 388 of the General Corporation Law
of the State of Delaware and de-register as a Cayman Islands exempted company in accordance with Section 206 of the Cayman Islands Companies Law (2020 Revision) (the “Domestication”).
In connection therewith, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth
herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investor and SPAC acknowledges and agrees as follows:
1. Subscription.
The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from SPAC, and SPAC agrees to issue and sell to Investor, the number of Shares set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the
conditions provided for herein. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that, as a result of the Domestication, the Shares that will be purchased by the Investor and issued by SPAC pursuant hereto shall be
shares of common stock in a Delaware corporation (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, ordinary shares in a Cayman Islands exempted company).
a. In connection
with this Subscription Agreement, following Closing, SPAC will be obligated to pay to Xxxxxx Orbital Family Limited Partnership or its affiliate, at Investor’s election, commencing on the first such date following the consummation of the
Transaction, (x) four quarterly installments of $1,875,000, to be paid on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of the following twelve month period (it being agreed that any such installment shall accrue or continue to accrue, rather
than paid in cash, during the existence of any event of default under the debt facilities of SPAC or its subsidiaries, or that would result from making such payment), and (y) following the first anniversary of the consummation of the Transaction,
twelve quarterly installments of, at SPAC’s option for each payment, either (1) the number of Shares equal to $1,875,000 based on the 15-Day VWAP (as defined below) at such installment date or (2) to the extent permitted under the debt facilities
of SPAC and its subsidiaries, $1,875,000, in the case of either (1) or (2), to be paid on each of March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each calendar year, payable in arrears. “15-Day VWAP” means the volume weighted average price of
the Shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange, The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC or any other national securities exchange on which the Shares are then listed, for the fifteen (15) trading days ending on the first trading day immediately preceding the
date of determination of the 15-Day VWAP. If no such prices are available, the board of directors of SPAC shall make a good faith determination of the 15-Day VWAP. SPAC’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section 1.a. shall be subordinated to
all obligations with respect to the debt facilities of SPAC and its subsidiaries. Xxxxxx Orbital Family Limited Partnership or its affiliate to which the foregoing payment obligations are owed shall execute and deliver a subordination agreement in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the holder or lender of such debt facilities to effectuate such subordination.
Confidential
2. Closing.
The closing of the sale of the Shares contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction. The Closing shall occur on the date of, and substantially concurrently with and conditioned
upon the effectiveness of, the Transaction. Upon (a) satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 3 below and (b) delivery of written notice from (or on behalf of) SPAC to the Investor (the “Closing Notice”), that SPAC reasonably
expects all conditions to the closing of the Transaction to be satisfied or waived on a date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date on which the Closing Notice is delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall deliver to SPAC,
three (3) business days prior to the anticipated closing date specified in the Closing Notice (the “Closing Date”), (i) the Subscription Amount by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account(s) specified by
SPAC in the Closing Notice and (ii) the legal name of the person in whose name such Shares are to be issued and a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, SPAC shall issue a number of Shares to
the Investor set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement and subsequently cause such Shares to be registered in book entry form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions whatsoever (other than those arising under this
Subscription Agreement, the organizational documents of SPAC or state or federal securities laws) in the name of the Investor (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) and as promptly as practicable after the Closing, on and as
of the Closing Date, on SPAC’s share register; provided, however, that SPAC’s obligation to issue the Shares to the Investor under this Subscription Agreement is contingent upon SPAC having received the Subscription Amount in full accordance with
this Section 2. If the Closing does not occur within three (3) business days following the Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, SPAC shall promptly (but not later than one (1) business day thereafter) return the Subscription Amount in full
to the Investor by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds, and any book entries of Shares shall be deemed cancelled. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean a day other than a Saturday,
Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in New York, New York are authorized or required by law to close.

a. In the event that the Shares are
not registered in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, SPAC agrees that, within forty-five (45) calendar days after the Closing Date, it will file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering
the resale of the Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof , but no later than the
earlier of (i) ninety (90) calendar days after the filing thereof (or one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the filing thereof if the SEC notifies SPAC that it will “review” the Registration Statement) and (ii) ten (10) business days after
SPAC is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review; provided, however, that if such date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other
day that the SEC is closed for business, such date shall be extended to the next business day on which the SEC is open for business. SPAC will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide a draft of the Registration Statement to the
Investor for review (but not comment) at least two (2) business days in advance of filing the Registration Statement. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Investor, the Investor shall not be identified as a statutory underwriter in the
Registration Statement unless requested or required by statute, regulation or exchange rules; provided, that if the SEC requests that the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Investor will have the
opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents SPAC from including any or all of the Shares to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415
of the Securities Act or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Shares that is equal to the maximum number of Shares as is permitted by the SEC. In such event, the number of Shares to be registered for
each selling shareholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling shareholders and as promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional Shares under Rule 415 of the Securities Act,
SPAC shall file a new Registration Statement to register such Shares not included in the initial Registration Statement and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as
practicable. SPAC agrees to cause such Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the Shares to be sold pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, to remain effective until the earliest of (i) the second
anniversary of the Closing, (ii) the date on which the Investor ceases to hold any Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, or (iii) on the first date on which the Investor is able to sell all of its Shares issued pursuant to this
Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) without restriction under Rule 144 of the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), including, without limitation, any restrictions relating to volume or manner of sale and without any
restrictions from a requirement that SPAC be in compliance with the requirement of Rule 144(c) or Rule 144(i) (such date, the “End Date”). Prior to the End Date, SPAC will use commercially reasonable efforts to qualify the Shares for
listing on the applicable stock exchange. SPAC and the Company further acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Subscription Agreement shall limit the Investor’s rights and remedies under and pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement.
b. If the filing,
initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement at any time would require SPAC to make public disclosure of material non-public information that, in the good faith judgment of the board of directors of the SPAC: (a) would be
required to be made in any Registration Statement filed with the SEC by SPAC so that such Registration Statement, from and after its effective date, does not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (b) would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing, effectiveness or continued use of such Registration Statement; and (c) SPAC has a bona fide
business purpose for not disclosing publicly, SPAC may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Investor, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, the Registration Statement (a “Suspension”); provided,
however, that SPAC shall not be permitted to exercise a Suspension more than one (1) time during any twelve (12)-month period or for a total period of greater than sixty (60) days; and provided further that SPAC shall not register any securities
for its own account or that of any other stockholder during such sixty (60)-day period, other than pursuant to a registration relating to the sale or grant of securities to employees or directors of SPAC or a subsidiary pursuant to a stock option,
stock purchase, equity incentive or similar plan; a registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Shares. In the case of a
Suspension, the Investor agrees to suspend use of the applicable prospectus in connection with any sale or purchase, or offer to sell or purchase, Shares, upon receipt of the notice referred to above. SPAC shall immediately notify the Investor in
writing upon the termination of any Suspension, amend or supplement the prospectus, if necessary, so it does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading and furnish to the Investor such numbers of copies of the prospectus as so amended or supplemented as the Investor may reasonably request. SPAC shall, if necessary, supplement or amend the Registration
Statement, if required by the registration form used by SPAC or by the instructions applicable to such registration form or by the Securities Act or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder or as may reasonably be requested by the Investor.
If so directed by SPAC, the Investor will deliver to SPAC, or in the Investor’s sole discretion, destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Shares in the Investor’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Shares shall not apply (w) to the extent the Investor is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (A) in order to
comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (B) in accordance with a bona fide document retention policy or (x) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.
c. SPAC will file
all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable the Investor to resell the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement (for as long as the Registration Statement shall remain effective) or Rule 144 of the
Securities Act (when Rule 144 of the Securities Act becomes available to the Investor), as applicable, qualify the Shares for listing on the applicable stock exchange on which the Shares are then listed, and update or amend the Registration
Statement as necessary to include the Shares. SPAC agrees, for as long as the Investor holds Shares, to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of SPAC under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as
SPAC remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;
and furnish to the Investor so long as it owns Shares, promptly upon written request, (x) a written statement by SPAC, if true, that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (y) a copy of
the most recent annual or quarterly report of SPAC and such other reports and documents so filed by SPAC (public availability on the SEC’s XXXXX system (or successor system) being sufficient) and (z) such other information as
7
Confidential
may be reasonably requested to permit the Investor to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration. If requested by the Investor in writing, SPAC shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause the removal of the restrictive legends from any Shares that may be sold under the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144 and, at the written request of a Holder (as defined below), cause the removal of all restrictive legends from any Shares held by such Holder that may be sold by such Holder under Rule 144, and (ii) cause its legal counsel to deliver an opinion, if required by the transfer agent, to the transfer agent in connection with the instruction under subclause (i) to the effect that the removal of such restrictive legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act, in each case upon the receipt of customary representations and other documentation, if any, from the Holder as reasonably requested by SPAC, its counsel or the transfer agent, establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required. “Holder” shall mean the Investor or any affiliate of the Investor that holds Shares to which the rights under this Section 7 shall have been assigned.
d. SPAC’s
obligations to include the Shares (or shares issued in exchange therefor) for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the Investor furnishing in writing to SPAC such information required by SEC rules for the Registration Statement
regarding the Investor, the securities of SPAC held by the Investor and the intended method of disposition of such Shares, which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings, as shall be reasonably requested by SPAC to effect the
registration of such Shares, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as SPAC may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations; provided that the Investor shall not be required to
execute any lock-up or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restrictions on the ability to transfer the Shares.
e. SPAC shall
notify the Investor promptly, but in any event within one (1) business day (or two (2) business days for clause (i) below):
(i)
|
when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the SEC and when such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment
thereto has become effective;
|
(ii)
|
of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information
concerning the Investor;
|
(iii)
|
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;
|
(iv)
|
of the receipt by SPAC of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Shares included therein for sale in any
jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
|
(v)
|
subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration
Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
|
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, SPAC shall not, when so advising the Investor of such events, provide the Investor with any material, nonpublic information regarding SPAC other than to the
extent that providing notice to the Investor of the occurrence of the events listed in (i) through (v) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding SPAC.
f. SPAC shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable. Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in Section 7(e)(v), except for
such times as SPAC is permitted hereunder to suspend and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming a part of a Registration Statement as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement, SPAC shall us its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon
as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Shares included therein,
such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

g. Indemnification.
(i)
|
SPAC shall indemnify and hold harmless the Investor (to the extent a seller under the Registration Statement), the officers, directors, advisors and
employees of the Investor, each person who controls the Investor (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors and employees of each such controlling person, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, documented and reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively,
“Losses”) that are caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or
supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, caused by any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of
prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are caused by or
contained in information regarding the Investor furnished in writing to SPAC by the Investor expressly for use therein or that the Investor has omitted a material fact from such information, or for any violation or alleged violation by the
Company or any of its subsidiaries of any federal, state, foreign or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries and relating to action or inaction in connection with any such Registration Statement,
disclosure document or other document or report. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SPAC’s indemnification obligations shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the prior
written consent of SPAC (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
|
(ii)
|
The Investor shall, severally and not jointly with any Other Investor in the offering contemplated by this Subscription Agreement, indemnify and hold
harmless SPAC, its directors, officers and employees, each person who controls SPAC (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, advisors and employees of such
controlling persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the
Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or caused by any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are caused by or contained in information regarding the Investor furnished in writing to SPAC by 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 Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investor’s indemnification
obligations shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Investor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
|
(iii)
|
Any person or entity entitled to indemnification herein shall (A) 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 or entity’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party)
and (B) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, 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 its consent (but such consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or 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 any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist 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 includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which 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.
|
(iv)
|
The indemnification provided for under this Subscription 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 or entity of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

Confidential
(v)
|
If the indemnification provided under this Section 7(g) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified
party in respect of any Losses 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 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, the liability of the Investor shall be limited to the
net proceeds received by the Investor from the sale of Shares 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 not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to
information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the case of an omission) 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 in this Section 7,
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(g) from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will any party be liable for
consequential, special, exemplary or punitive damages in connection with this Subscription Agreement.

8. Termination.
This Subscription 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 earlier to occur of (a) such date and time as the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms without being consummated, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto and the Company to terminate this
Subscription Agreement, or (c) the delivery of a notice of termination of this Subscription Agreement by the Investor to SPAC following the date that is 30 days after the Termination Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement as in effect on the
date hereof), if the Closing has not occurred by such date (provided, that the right to terminate this Subscription Agreement pursuant to this clause (c) shall not be available to the Investor if the Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or
obligations under this Subscription Agreement (or if an affiliate of the Investor is one of the Investors under an Other Subscription Agreement, and such other Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under the Other Subscription
Agreement), either individually or in the aggregate, shall have caused the failure of the consummation of the Transaction on or before such date (the termination events described in clauses (a)–(c) above, collectively, the “Termination Events”);
provided that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any fraud or willful and material breach of any covenant, agreement, obligation, representation or warranty hereunder 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 fraud or willful and material breach. SPAC shall notify the Investor in writing of the termination of the Merger Agreement as promptly as
practicable after the termination of such agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Termination Event, this Subscription Agreement shall be void and of no further effect and any monies paid by the Investor to SPAC in connection herewith shall
promptly (and in any event within one (1) business day) following the Termination Event be returned to the Investor.
9. Trust
Account Waiver. The Investor acknowledges that SPAC is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving SPAC and one or more
businesses or assets. The Investor further acknowledges that, as described in SPAC’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated March 4, 2021 (the “Prospectus”) available at xxx.xxx.xxx, substantially all of SPAC’s assets consist of
the cash proceeds of SPAC’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 SPAC, its public shareholders and
the underwriters of SPAC’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to SPAC to pay its tax obligations and to fund certain of its working capital requirements, the
cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of SPAC entering into this Subscription 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 Subscription Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 9 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 Shares currently outstanding on the date hereof, pursuant to a validly exercised redemption right with respect to any such Shares, except to the extent that the Investor has otherwise agreed with SPAC to not exercise such redemption
right.
10. Miscellaneous.
a. Neither this
Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the parties hereunder (other than the Shares acquired hereunder, if any) may be transferred or assigned without the prior written consent of each of the other parties hereto; provided that
(i) this Subscription Agreement and any of the Investor’s rights and obligations hereunder may be assigned to any fund (or affiliate thereof) or account managed by the same investment manager as the Investor or by an affiliate (as defined in Rule
12b-2 of the Exchange Act) of such investment manager without the prior consent of SPAC and (ii) the Investor's rights under Section 7 may be assigned to an assignee or transferee of the Shares; provided further that prior to such assignment any
such assignee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms hereof; provided, that no assignment pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 10 shall relieve the Investor of its obligations hereunder.
10
Confidential
b. SPAC may request from the Investor
such additional information as SPAC may deem reasonably necessary to register the resale of the Shares and evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the Shares, and the Investor shall promptly provide such information as may reasonably
be requested to the extent readily available; provided, that, SPAC agrees to keep any such information provided by Investor confidential except (i) as necessary to include in any registration statement SPAC is required to file hereunder, (ii) as
required by the federal securities law or pursuant to other routine proceedings of regulatory authorities or (iii) to the extent such disclosure is required by law, at the request of the staff of the SEC or regulatory agency or under the
regulations of any national securities exchange on which SPAC’s securities are listed for trading. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that if it does not provide SPAC with such requested information, SPAC may not be able to register the
Investor's Shares for resale pursuant to Section 7 hereof. The Investor acknowledges that SPAC may file a copy of this Subscription Agreement (or a form of this Subscription Agreement) with the SEC as an exhibit to a periodic or current report or
a registration statement of SPAC.
c. The Investor acknowledges that SPAC,
the Company and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement, including Schedule A hereto. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify
SPAC and 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 SPAC and the Company if they are no longer accurate in any respect).
d. SPAC and the Company are each
entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement, including the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement, and each is irrevocably authorized to produce this
Subscription 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; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this Section
10(d) shall not give the Company any rights other than those expressly set forth herein and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to rely on any of the
representations and warranties of SPAC set forth in this Subscription Agreement.
e. All of the
agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.
f. The Investor
does not have, as of the date hereof, and during the 30-day period immediately prior to the date hereof the Investor has not entered into, any “put equivalent position” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act or Short Sales (as
defined below) with respect to the securities of SPAC. The Investor agrees that, from the date of this Subscription Agreement, none of the Investor nor any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or pursuant to any understanding with the
Investor will engage in any Short Sales with respect to securities of SPAC prior to the Closing. For the purposes hereof, “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), and sales and other transactions through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle
whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets,
the representation and covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Shares covered by this Subscription Agreement. For the
avoidance of doubt, this Section 10(f) shall not apply to ordinary course, non-speculative hedging transactions.
g. This
Subscription Agreement may not be modified, waived or terminated (other than pursuant to the terms of Section 8 above) except by an instrument in writing, signed by each of the parties hereto, provided, however, that no modification
or waiver by SPAC of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Company (other than modifications or waivers that are solely ministerial in nature or otherwise immaterial and do not
affect any economic or any other material term of this Subscription Agreement). 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.
h. This
Subscription 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 8, Section 10(c), Section 10(d), Section 10(g), this Section 10(h), the last sentence of Section 10(l) and Section 11 with respect to the persons specifically referenced therein, this
Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns, and the parties hereto acknowledge that such persons so referenced are third party
beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement with right of enforcement for the purposes of, and to the extent of, the rights granted to them, if any, pursuant to the applicable provisions; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Subscription Agreement, the Company is an intended third party beneficiary of each of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement.
i. Except as
otherwise provided herein, this Subscription 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.
j. If any
provision of this Subscription 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 Subscription Agreement shall
not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

k. This Subscription 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.
l. The parties hereto acknowledge and
agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Subscription 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 Subscription Agreement, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages, to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription
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 the Company shall be entitled to specifically enforce the
Investor’s obligations to fund the Subscription Amount and the provisions of the Subscription Agreement of which the Company is an express third party beneficiary, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
m. If any change in the number, type
or classes of authorized shares of SPAC (including the Shares), other than as contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any agreement contemplated by the Merger Agreement, shall occur between the date hereof and immediately prior to the Closing by
reason of reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend, the number of Shares issued to the Investor shall be appropriately adjusted to
reflect such change.
n. This Subscription Agreement shall
be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof) as to all
matters (including any action, suit, litigation, arbitration, mediation, claim, charge, complaint, inquiry, proceeding, hearing, audit, investigation or reviews by or before any governmental entity related hereto), including matters of validity,
construction, effect, performance and remedies.
o. Each party
hereto hereby, and any person asserting rights as a third party beneficiary may do so only if he, she or it, irrevocably agrees that any action, suit or proceeding between or among the parties hereto, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise,
arising in connection with any disagreement, dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Subscription Agreement or any related document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (“Legal Dispute”) shall be
brought only to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware or the federal courts located in the State of Delaware, and each party hereto hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate
courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such
court or that any such suit, action or proceeding that is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. During the period a Legal Dispute that is filed in accordance with this Section 10(o) is pending before a court, all
actions, suits or proceedings with respect to such Legal Dispute or any other Legal Dispute, including any counterclaim, cross-claim or interpleader, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court. Each party hereto and any person
asserting rights as a third party beneficiary may do so only if he, she or it hereby waives, and shall not assert as a defense in any Legal Dispute, that (a) such party is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any
reason, (b) such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such court, (c) such party’s property is exempt or immune from execution, (d) such action, suit or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, or (e) the
venue of such action, suit or proceeding is improper. A final judgment in any action, suit or proceeding described in this Section 10(o) following the expiration of any period permitted for appeal and subject to any stay during appeal shall be
