WHEREAS, in connection with the Transaction, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, Subscriber desires to subscribe for and purchase from the Issuer, prior to or simultaneous with the closing of the Transaction, the number of Issuer’s Common Shares set forth on the signature page hereto (such Common Shares, the “Acquired Shares”) for a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “Share Purchase Price”), or the aggregate purchase price set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Purchase Price”), and the Issuer desires to issue and sell the Acquired Shares to Subscriber in a private placement in consideration of the payment of the Purchase Price by or on behalf of Subscriber to the Issuer at or prior to the Closing Date; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the Transaction, certain other “accredited investors” (as such term is defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”, and each such “accredited investor”, an “Other Subscriber”)), have entered into subscription agreements with the Issuer substantially similar to this Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which such Other Subscribers have agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and the Issuer has agreed to issue and sell to such Other Subscribers, on the Closing Date, Common Shares at the Share Purchase Price (the “Other Subscription Agreements”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Subscriber hereby agrees to subscribe for and purchase, and the Issuer hereby agrees to issue and sell to Subscriber, upon the payment of the Purchase Price, the Acquired Shares (such subscription and issuance, the “Subscription”). The undersigned understands and agrees that the undersigned’s subscription for the Acquired Shares shall be deemed to be accepted by the Issuer only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of the Issuer. The Issuer may sign this Subscription Agreement in counterpart form.

If this Subscription Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing or the Closing does not occur on the Scheduled Closing Date and any funds have already been sent by Subscriber to the escrow account, then promptly (but in no event longer than 2 business days thereafter) after such termination or failure of closing, the Issuer will instruct the escrow agent to promptly (but in no event longer than 2 business days thereafter) return such funds to Subscriber.

For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “Short Sales” shall mean 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.

Additional Subscriber Agreement. Subscriber hereby agrees that, from the date of this Agreement, none of Subscriber or any person or entity acting on behalf of Subscriber or pursuant to any understanding with Subscriber will engage in any Short Sales with respect to securities of Peridot prior to the Closing; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 6 only, the definition of “Short Sales” shall not include options, puts and calls (which shall expressly be permitted). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit other entities under common management with Subscriber that have no knowledge of this Subscription Agreement or of Subscriber’s participation in the Transaction (including Subscriber’s controlled affiliates and/or affiliates) from entering into any Short Sales.

7.	Registration Rights

(a)

In the event that the Acquired Shares are not registered in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, the Issuer agrees that, as soon as practicable (but in any case no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction) (the “Filing Deadline”), it will file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the Acquired 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) sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing (or ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing if the SEC notifies the Issuer that it will “review” the Registration Statement) and (ii) ten (10) business days after the Issuer 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 (the “Effectiveness Deadline”). The Issuer agrees to cause such Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the Acquired Shares to be sold pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, to remain effective until the earliest of (i) the third anniversary of the Closing, (ii) the date on which Subscriber ceases to hold any Acquired Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, or (iii) on the first date on which Subscriber is able to sell all of its Acquired Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 within 90 days without limitation as to the amount of such securities that may be sold and without the requirement for the Issuer to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144. Subscriber agrees to disclose its ownership to the Issuer upon request to assist it in making the determination described above. The Issuer may amend the Registration Statement so as to convert the Registration Statement to a Registration Statement on Form F-3 at such time after the Issuer becomes eligible to use such Form F-3. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Issuer may suspend the use of any such Registration Statement if it determines (a) that the use of such Registration Statement would require the inclusion of financial statements that are unavailable for Issue for reasons beyond the Issuer’s control, or (b) that in order for such Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed to include information that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act; provided, that (I) the Issuer shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of the Registration Statement on more than two (2) occasions or for a period of more than sixty (60) consecutive days or more than a total of one hundred-twenty (120) calendar days, in each case in any three hundred sixty (360)-day period, (II) the Issuer shall have a bona fide business purpose for not making such information public and (III) the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such Registration

Statement available for the sale by Subscriber of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter. The Issuer’s obligations to include the Acquired Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares issued in exchange therefor) for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to the Issuer such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of the Issuer held by Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of such Acquired Shares, which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings, as shall be reasonably requested by the Issuer to effect the registration of such Acquired Shares, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Issuer may reasonably request that are customary of a selling shareholder in similar situations; provided, however, that Subscriber shall not in connection with the foregoing be required to execute any lock-up or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restriction on the ability to transfer the Acquired Shares. The Issuer will provide a draft of the Registration Statement to Subscriber for review at least two (2) business days in advance of filing the Registration Statement. So long as Subscriber delivers to the Issuer a completed questionnaire (which shall include representations and warranties as to relevant matters), Subscriber shall not be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless in response to a comment or request from the staff of the SEC or another regulatory agency; provided, however, that if the SEC requests that Subscriber be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, Subscriber will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. For purposes of clarification, any failure by the Issuer to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Deadline or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness Deadline shall not otherwise relieve the Issuer of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement set forth in this Section 7. For purposes of this Section 7, “Acquired Shares” includes any other equity security of the Issuer issued or issuable with respect to the Acquired Shares by way of share split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, replacement or similar event or otherwise.

(b)

The Issuer shall advise Subscriber within three (3) business days (email being sufficient) (at the Issuer’s expense): (i) when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; (ii) 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; (iii) of the receipt by the Issuer of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Acquired Shares included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and (iv) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of a suspension pursuant to Section 7(a) or 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 (provided that any such notice pursuant to this Section 7(b) shall solely provide that the use of the Registration Statement or prospectus has been suspended without setting forth the reason for such suspension and shall not contain any material non-public information regarding the Issuer). The Issuer 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 clauses (i) through (iv) above, except for such times as the Issuer is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other

required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Acquired 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 the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Subscriber agrees that it will promptly discontinue offers and sales of the Acquired Shares using a Registration Statement until Subscriber receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above in clause (iv) and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Issuer that it may resume such offers and sales (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding the Issuer). If so directed by the Issuer, Subscriber will deliver to the Issuer or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Acquired Shares in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Acquired Shares shall not apply (x) to the extent Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (y) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.

(c)

For as long as Subscriber holds Acquired Shares, the Issuer will use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports necessary to enable the undersigned to resell the Acquired Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement and, when Rule 144 of the Securities Act becomes available to Subscriber, Rule 144 of the Securities Act. In connection with any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Acquired Shares by Subscriber pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the Securities Act such that the Acquired Shares held by Subscriber become freely tradable and upon compliance by Subscriber with the requirements of this Subscription Agreement, if requested by Subscriber, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Issuer’s transfer agent to remove any restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such Acquired Shares and make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry Acquired Shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends within two (2) trading days of any such request therefor from Subscriber; provided, that the Issuer and the transfer agent have timely received from Subscriber customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the transfer agent in connection therewith. Subject to receipt from Subscriber by the Issuer and the transfer agent of customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the transfer agent in connection therewith, including, if required by the transfer agent, an opinion of the Issuer’s counsel, in a form reasonably acceptable to the transfer agent, to the effect that the removal of such restrictive legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act, Subscriber may request that the Issuer shall remove any legend from the book-entry position evidencing its Acquired Shares following the earliest of such time as such Acquired Shares (i) have been or are about to be sold or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) have been or are about to be sold pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) are eligible for resale under Rule 144(b)(1) or any successor provision without the requirement for the Issuer to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144 and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions applicable to the sale or transfer of such Acquired Shares. If restrictive legends are no longer required for such Acquired Shares pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer shall, in accordance with the provisions of this section and within two (2) trading days of any request therefor from Subscriber accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable representations and other documentation referred to above establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required, deliver to the transfer agent irrevocable instructions that the transfer agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry Acquired Shares. The Issuer shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent and all DTC fees associated with such issuance.

(d)

Indemnification.

(i)

The Issuer and Peridot agree, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, Subscriber, its directors, and officers, employees, and agents, and each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of Subscriber (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included in any Registration Statement or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as and to the extent, but only to the extent, the same are caused by or contained in any information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to the Issuer by or on behalf of Subscriber expressly for use therein.

(ii)

Subscriber agrees, severally and not jointly with any person that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, its directors and officers and agents and employees and each person who controls the Issuer (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or preliminary prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Acquired Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(iii)

Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) 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 right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and, (2) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties exists 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 legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists 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 of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Acquired Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

(v)

If the indemnification provided under this Section 7(d) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses 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, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses 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. 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 relates to information supplied by, 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 above, 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(d) from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Acquired Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement giving rise to such contribution obligation.

NYSE Listing. The Issuer and Peridot shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Acquired Shares to be approved for listing on NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance, as promptly as practicable after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, and in any event on or prior to the Closing Date.

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 Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with the terms therein, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) if any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 2(d), (e) or (f) are not satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated at the Closing or (d) at the election of Subscriber, on August 15, 2021, if the closing of the transactions contemplated in the Business Combination Agreement have not occurred by such date; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover out-of-pocket losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. The Issuer and Peridot shall promptly notify Subscriber of the termination of the Business Combination Agreement promptly after the termination of such agreement.

10.

Trust Account Waiver. Subscriber acknowledges that Peridot is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Issuer and one or more businesses or assets. Subscriber further acknowledges that, as described in Peridot’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated September 23, 2020 (the “Prospectus”), available at xxx.xxx.xxx, substantially all of the Issuer’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of the Issuer’s initial public offering and a 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 Peridot, its public shareholders and the underwriters of Peridot’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to Peridot to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of Peridot entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subscriber, on behalf of itself and its representatives, hereby irrevocable waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind they have or may have in the future arising out of this Subscription Agreement, 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 10 shall be deemed to limit any Subscriber’s right, title, interest or claim to the Trust Account by virtue of such Subscriber’s record or beneficial ownership of securities of Peridot acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, including but not limited to any redemption right with respect to any such securities of the Issuer.

11.

Pledges. The Issuer acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Acquired Shares may be pledged by Subscriber in connection with a bona fide margin agreement, provided such pledge shall be (i) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that is effective under the Securities Act at the time of such pledge, and Subscriber effecting a pledge of Acquired Shares shall not be required to provide the Issuer with any notice thereof; provided, however, that neither the Issuer or their counsel shall be required to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) in connection with any such pledge, other than providing any such lender of such margin agreement with an acknowledgment that the Acquired Shares are not subject to any contractual prohibition on pledging or lock up, the form of such acknowledgment to be subject to review and comment by the Issuer in all respects.

12.	Miscellaneous.

(a)

Subscriber acknowledges that Peridot, the Issuer and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement. Prior to the Closing, Subscriber agrees to promptly notify the Issuer and Peridot if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties made by Subscriber as set forth herein are no longer accurate in all material respects.

(b)

Each of Peridot, the Issuer and Subscriber is entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and 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 to the extent required by law or by regulatory bodies.

(c)

(d)

All the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.

(e)

Peridot and the Issuer may request from Subscriber such additional information as Peridot and the Issuer may reasonably deem necessary to evaluate the eligibility of Subscriber to acquire the Acquired Shares, and Subscriber shall provide such information as may be reasonably requested, to the extent readily available and to the extent consistent with its internal policies and procedures; provided, that Peridot and the Issuer agree to keep any such information provided by Subscriber confidential.

(f)

This Subscription Agreement may not be modified, waived or terminated except by an instrument in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of such modification, waiver, or termination is sought.

(g)

This Subscription Agreement 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.

(h)

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.

(i)

If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall 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.

(j)

This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in two (2) or more counterparts (including by electronic means, such as facsimile, .pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000), all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.

(k)

Each party shall pay all of its own expenses in connection with this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein.

At any time, Subscriber may (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of the Issuer or Peridot, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Issuer or Peridot contained herein or in any document delivered by the Issuer or Peridot pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any agreement of the Issuer or Peridot or any condition to its own obligations contained herein.
