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, the Sponsor agrees to advance to the Company up to $1,750,000.00 in the aggregate, in each instance pursuant to the terms of the form of promissory note
attached as Exhibit A hereto (the "Note"), as may be necessary to fund the Company's expenses relating to investigating and selecting a target business and other working capital
requirements following the Offering and prior to any potential Business Combination.
(b) The Sponsor represents to the Company that the Sponsor is capable of making such advances to satisfy its obligations under Section 1(a).
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Note, the Sponsor 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, together with certain additional amounts, 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; provided, however, that if the Company completes its Business Combination, the
Company may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds released to the Company from the Trust Account.
2. This Agreement, together with the Note, 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. This Agreement may not be changed, amended, modified or waived (other than
to correct a typographical error) as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto.
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; provided,
however, that, subject to all applicable securities laws, the Note shall be freely assignable by the Sponsor to any assignee; provided, further, that Sponsor's obligations hereunder shall remain in full
force and effect in the event that an assignee fails to timely perform any of Sponsor's obligations hereunder. 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. This Agreement shall be binding on the undersigned and each of his or its heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.
