RECITALS
A. The Company and the Investor have entered into that certain Standby Equity Purchase Agreement, dated as of November
28, 2022 (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which the Investor upon closing of the Business Combination (as defined in the Agreement), shall have the right to issue and sell to the Investor, from time to time as provided therein, and the
Investor shall purchase from the Company, up to the lesser of (i) $60 million in aggregate gross purchase price of newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Shares”) (as defined in the
Agreement), and (ii) (to the extent applicable) the Exchange Cap (as defined in the Agreement).
B. Simultaneous with the execution of this Amendment, the Company is entering into an amendment to the Merger Agreement
