Re: Initial Public Offering
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter (this “Letter Agreement”)
is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered into or proposed
to be entered into by and between SportsTek Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx
& Company, Incorporated, as the underwriter named therein (the “Underwriter”), relating to an underwritten initial public
offering (the “Public Offering”), of 12,500,000 of the Company’s units (including up to 1,875,000 additional units that may be
purchased to cover the Underwriter’s option to purchase additional units, if any) (the “Units”), each comprised of one share of
Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and one-half of one redeemable
warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common
Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units will be sold in the Public Offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 and a prospectus (the “Prospectus”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and the Company has applied to have the Units listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 11 hereof.
In order to induce the Company and the Underwriter to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the Public Offering and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, JTJT Partners LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), and the other undersigned persons (each such other undersigned persons, an “Insider”
and collectively, the “Insiders”), each hereby agrees, severally but not jointly, with the Company as follows:
1. The Sponsor and each Insider agrees that if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with such
proposed Business Combination, it, he or she shall (a) vote any Shares owned by it, him or her in favor of any proposed Business Combination (including any proposals recommended by the Company’s Board of Directors in connection with such Business
Combination) and (b) not redeem any Shares owned by it, him or her in connection with such stockholder approval.
2. The Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing
of the Public Offering, or such later period approved by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (an “Extension Period”), the Sponsor and each Insider shall take all reasonable steps to cause the Company to (a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (b) as promptly as reasonably
possible but not more than ten (10) business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the Class A Common Shares sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering (the “Offering Shares”), at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall
be net of taxes payable and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish all Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders
(including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any) and (c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors,
dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the other requirements of applicable law. The Sponsor and each Insider agrees to not propose any amendment to the
Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemptions in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares
if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity,
unless the Company provides its Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Offering Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account,
including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares.
The Sponsor and each Insider acknowledges that it, he or she has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account
or any other asset of the Company as a result of any liquidation of the Company with respect to the Founder Shares held by it (although the Sponsor and the Insiders shall be entitled to liquidation rights with respect to any Offering Shares it or
they hold if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 24 months from the date of the closing of the Public Offering or during any Extension Period). The Sponsor and each Insider hereby further waives, with respect to any Shares
held by it, him or her, if any, any redemption rights it, he or she may have in connection with (x) the consummation of a Business Combination, including, without limitation, any such rights available in the context of a stockholder vote to approve
such Business Combination or in the context of a tender offer made by the Company to purchase Class A Common Shares and (y) a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (i) to modify
the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemptions in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the Company has not consummated its initial Business Combination within
24 months from the closing of the Public Offering or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity.
3. Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in paragraphs 7(a) and (b) below, during the period commencing on the effective date of the Underwriting Agreement
and ending 180 days after such date, the Sponsor and each Insider shall not, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx & Company, Incorporated, (a) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any
transaction that is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise)), directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a
put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, with respect to,
any Units, Class A Common Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, Class A Common Shares, or (b) publicly announce an intention to effect any such transaction; provided, however, that the foregoing does not apply to the forfeiture of any Founder Shares
pursuant to their terms or any transfer of Founder Shares to any current or future independent director of the company (as long as such current or future independent director transferee is subject to this Letter Agreement or executes an agreement
substantially identical to the terms of this Letter Agreement, as applicable to directors and officers at the time of such transfer; and as long as, to the extent any Section 16 reporting obligation is triggered as a result of such transfer, any
related Section 16 filing includes a practical explanation as to the nature of the transfer). The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (x) the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer of securities that is not for
consideration and (y) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this Letter Agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the transfer.
4. In the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account, the Sponsor (which for purposes of clarification shall not extend to any other stockholders, members
or managers of the Sponsor) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in
investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, whether pending or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) to which the Company may become subject as a result of any claim by (a) any third party (other than the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company or (b) a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement (a “Target”); provided, however, that such indemnification of the Company by the Sponsor shall apply only to the extent necessary to ensure that such claims by a third party for services rendered (other than the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm) or products sold to the Company or a Target do not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (x) $10.00 per Offering Share or (y) such lesser amount per Offering Share held in the Trust Account as of
the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, in each case, net of the amount of interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to
any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the Underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In the event that any such executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against such third party, the Sponsor shall not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Sponsor shall
have the right to defend against any such claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Company if, within 15 days following written receipt of notice of the claim to the Sponsor, the Sponsor notifies the Company in writing that it
shall undertake such defense.
5. To the extent that the Underwriter does not exercise its option to purchase up to an additional 1,875,000 Units within 45 days from the date of the
Prospectus (and as further described in the Prospectus), the Sponsor agrees that it shall forfeit, at no cost, a number of Founder Shares in the aggregate equal to 468,750 multiplied by a fraction, (a) the numerator of which is 1,875,000 minus the
number of Units purchased by the Underwriter upon the exercise of its option to purchase additional Units, and (b) the denominator of which is 1,875,000. All references in this Letter Agreement to Founder Shares of the Company being forfeited shall
take effect as a contribution of such Founder Shares to the Company’s capital as a matter of Delaware law. The forfeiture will be adjusted to the extent that the option to purchase additional Units is not exercised in full by the Underwriter so that
the number of Founder Shares will equal an aggregate of 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares immediately after the Public Offering.
6. The Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (a) the Underwriter and the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach
by such Sponsor or Insider of its, his or her obligations under paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7(a), 7(b), and 9 of this Letter Agreement, (b) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (c) the non-breaching party shall be entitled
to seek injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach.
7. (a) The Sponsor and each Insider agrees that it, he or she shall not Transfer (as defined below) any Founder Shares (or Class A Common Shares issuable upon
conversion thereof) until the earlier of (i) one year after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) subsequent to the Business Combination, (A) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock
exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Stockholders having the right to exchange their Class A Common Shares for cash, securities or other property or (B) if the last reported sale price of the Class A
Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Company’s
initial Business Combination (the “Founder Shares Lock-up Period”).
(b) The Sponsor and each Insider agrees that it, he or she shall not Transfer any Private Placement Warrants (or Class A Common Shares issued or issuable upon
the conversion or exercise of the Private Placement Warrants), until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination (the “Private
Placement Warrants Lock-up Period,” together with the Founder Shares Lock-up Period, the “Lock-up Periods”).
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in paragraphs 7(a) and (b), Transfers of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and Class A Common Shares
issued or issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Private Placement Warrants or the Founder Shares and that are held by the Sponsor or any Insider or any of their permitted transferees (that have complied with this paragraph 7(c)), are
permitted (i) to the Company’s officers or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of the Company’s officers or directors, any members of the Sponsor, or any affiliates of the Sponsor or any employee or partner of any such affiliate, (ii)
in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of the individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of the individual’s immediate family or an affiliate of such person, or to a charitable organization; (iii) in
the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (iv) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (v) by private sales or transfers made in connection with the
consummation of the Company’s Business Combination at prices no greater than the price at which the securities were originally purchased; (vi) in the event of the Company’s liquidation prior to the Company’s completion of an initial Business
Combination; (vii) by virtue of the laws of Delaware or the Sponsor’s limited liability company agreement, as amended, upon dissolution of the Sponsor; or (viii) in the event of the Company’s completion of a liquidation, merger, stock exchange,
reorganization or other similar transaction which results in all of the Public Stockholders having the right to exchange their Class A Common Shares for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the Company’s completion of an initial Business
Combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (i)
through (v), these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement with the Company agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions and other applicable restrictions in this Letter Agreement.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph 7 or the provisions set forth in paragraph 3, the Sponsor shall have the right to Encumber (as defined below)
up to one-third (1/3) of its Founder Shares and the Class A Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof without restriction at any time following the execution of this Letter Agreement. Neither such Encumbrance (as defined below) nor the exercise
of any remedies by the party to whom such Encumbrance is in favor (including any seizure or foreclosure of any such shares by such party) shall violate, conflict with, or otherwise be prohibited or restricted by any of the terms or conditions set
forth herein. “Encumbrance” means any lien, charge, pledge, security interest, claim or other encumbrance. The term “Encumber” shall have a correlative meaning.
8. The Sponsor and each Insider represents and warrants that it, he or she has never been suspended or expelled from membership in any securities or
commodities exchange or association or had a securities or commodities license or registration denied, suspended or revoked. Each

rendered in order to effectuate the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is).
10. The Sponsor and each Insider has full right and power, without violating any agreement to which it is bound (including, without limitation, any
