NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, covenants and agreements contained herein, and certain other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. (a) From time to time, as may be requested by the Company, Broadband agrees to advance funds in the form of loans to the Company as may be necessary to fund the following expenses that may be incurred by the Company: (i) any and all expenses incurred or to be incurred by the Company in connection with the Offering, including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of [QIU], as the qualified independent underwriter in respect of the Offering; and (ii) up to $2,000,000 of expenses incurred or to be incurred by the Company in connection with any potential Business Transaction and for other working capital requirements.

(b) If the Company does not consummate a Business Transaction and the Trust Account is liquidated or the Company is liquidated, and the remaining net assets of the Company are insufficient to complete such liquidation, Broadband agrees to advance from time to time, as may be requested by the Company, such funds as may be necessary to complete such liquidation, and agrees not to seek repayment for such expenses.
(c) Broadband represents to the Company that it is capable of making such advances to satisfy its obligations under clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 1.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any promissory note issued by the Company to Broadband, Broadband hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind ("Claim") in or to any distribution of the Trust Account in which the proceeds of the Offering, as described in greater detail in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, will be deposited, and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.
2. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby.

3. No party may assign either this Agreement or any of his, her or its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party. Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee.
