Re: Letter Agreement
Reference is made to that certain Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof, by and among Satellogic Inc., an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (together with its successors and assigns, the “Issuer”), Satellogic V Inc. (f/k/a CF Acquisition Corp. V), a Delaware corporation, and Liberty Strategic Capital (SATL) Holdings, LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Subscriber”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Subscriber subscribed for and agreed to purchase from the Issuer, and the Issuer agreed to issue and sell to the Subscriber 20,000,000 Issuer Shares (the “Subscriber Shares”) and 20,000,000 PIPE Warrants. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Subscription Agreement. This letter agreement amends and restates in its entirety the letter agreement between the parties hereto dated January 18, 2022. In connection with the Subscription Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Advisory Fee. Subject to Paragraph 3 below and to the occurrence of the Closing and the Transaction Closing, as an advisory fee for advisory services to be provided by the Manager (as defined below) to the Issuer, the Issuer agrees to (a) on the Closing Date, issue to Liberty 77 Capital L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and the manager of the Subscriber (the “Manager”), an aggregate of 2,500,000 warrants, each warrant providing the holder thereof the right to purchase one (1) share of Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Shares”), of the Issuer at an exercise price of $10 per Class A Share (the “Advisory Fee Warrants”) and (b) pay the Manager $1,250,000 in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Manager, on the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date and on the last day (or, if not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day) of each of the following five (5) successive three-month anniversaries of such 18-month anniversary (each, a “Fee Installment”), representing aggregate Fee Installments of up to $7,500,000. The Advisory Fee Warrants shall be subject to substantially the same terms as those set forth in the Warrant Agreement attached as Exhibit A to the Subscription Agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”). The provisions of Section 4 of the Warrant Agreement (applied mutatis mutandis as if set forth in this letter agreement) shall apply to the Advisory Fee Warrants. Subscriber shall cause the Manager to be reasonably available from time to time to advise the Issuer until a Cessation Event. Section 10 (Registration Rights) of the Subscription Agreement as it applies to the Subscriber Warrant Shares (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) will apply, mutatis mutandis, to the shares underlying Advisory Fee Warrants, as if it had been fully set forth herein.

The Voting Parties agree to promptly take any further action reasonably necessary for the purpose of the foregoing. Kargieman in his capacity as holder of Class B Ordinary Shares confirms for the avoidance of doubt (including for the purpose of clause 8.1(a)(i) of the Memorandum of Association of the Issuer) that a variation to the rights attached to the Class B Ordinary Shares of the Issuer so as to cause such adjustment shall not constitute a material adverse effect with respect to the rights attached to the Class B Ordinary Shares.
