RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company previously entered into a Business Combination Agreement, dated as of October 4, 2023, with Bolt Threads, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Bolt”), and the other parties thereto, providing for the acquisition of Bolt (the “Transaction Agreement” and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, the “Transaction”);

WHEREAS, substantially concurrently with the execution of this Amendment, the Subscriber has been provided the opportunity to purchase an unsecured promissory note (the “Bridge III Note”) from Bolt pursuant to Section 3.3 of the Note Purchase Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the covenants and agreements contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

Agreement

1. Amendment to the Subscription Agreement.

(a) The definition of “Purchase Price” for purposes of this Amendment and the Subscription Agreement shall be equal to (i) the Purchase Price, as set forth in the Subscription Agreement minus (ii) the principal amount of Bridge III Notes purchased by the Subscriber, if any. The definition of “Subscribed Shares” for purposes of this Amendment and the Subscription Agreement shall be equal to (x) the Purchase Price (as revised pursuant to the preceding sentence) divided by (y) $10.00, rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(b) The definition of “Note Purchase Agreement” for purposes of Section 1 of this Amendment and the Subscription Agreement shall be the Note Purchase Agreement, as amended;

(c) Section 2(e)(v) of the Subscription Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“the Financing Proceeds, the aggregate gross proceeds to Bolt from the February Notes purchased pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the aggregate gross proceeds to Bolt from the Bridge III Notes purchased pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement and the amount in the Company’s trust fund established by the Company for the benefit of its public stockholders maintained in a trust account at JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., in each case, to be received by the Company at or prior to the Closing shall be no less than $32,000,000 in the aggregate, less any amounts that the Company is entitled to withdraw from the Trust Account (as defined in Section 7) to pay tax obligations owed by the Company as of the Closing Date in excess of $140,000 in the aggregate.”

(d) Section 6 of the Subscription Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms; (b) upon the mutual written agreement of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement; (c) if, on the Closing Date, any of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 2 are not satisfied or waived and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated at the Closing; and (d) the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to September 16, 2024; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereto prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. The Company shall promptly notify Subscriber of the termination of the Transaction Agreement promptly after the termination thereof. Upon the termination of this Subscription Agreement in accordance with this Section 6, any monies paid by the Subscriber to the Company in connection herewith shall be promptly (and in any event within one Business Day after such termination) returned to the Subscriber.”

2. Effect of Amendment. Except as expressly provided herein, this Amendment shall not constitute an amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Subscription Agreement or any rights or obligations of any party under or in respect of the Subscription Agreement. Except as modified by this Amendment, the Subscription Agreement and Amendment No. 1 shall each continue in full force and effect. Upon the execution of this Amendment by the Parties and Bolt, each reference in the Subscription Agreement to “this Agreement” or the words “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein” or words of similar effect referring to the Subscription Agreement shall mean and be a reference to the Subscription Agreement as amended by this Amendment, and a reference to the Subscription Agreement in any other instrument or document shall be deemed a reference to the Subscription Agreement as amended by this Amendment. This Amendment shall be subject to, shall form a part of, and shall be governed by, the terms and conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.

3. General. Section 10 of the Subscription Agreement shall apply to this Amendment mutatis mutandis.
