and Trust Company and NAC (the “Trust Agreement”). The Trust Agreement is valid and in full force and effect
and enforceable in accordance with its terms and has not been amended or modified. There are no separate agreements, side letters
or other agreements or understandings (whether written or unwritten, express or implied) that would cause the description of the
Trust Agreement in the NAC SEC Reports to be inaccurate in any material respect and/or that would entitle any person (other than
stockholders of NAC holding shares of NAC Class A Common Stock sold in NAC’s initial public offering who shall have elected
to redeem their shares of NAC Class A Common Stock pursuant to the Organizational Documents of NAC and the Trust Agreement) to
any portion of the proceeds in the Trust Fund. Prior to the Closing, none of the funds held in the Trust Fund may be released except
in accordance with the Trust Agreement and NAC’s Organizational Documents. Amounts in the Trust Fund are invested in United
States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act having a maturity
of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company
Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. NAC has performed all material obligations required to be
performed by it under, and is not in material default or delinquent in performance or any other respect (claimed or actual) in
connection with, the Trust Agreement, and, to the knowledge of NAC, no event has occurred which, with due notice or lapse of time
or both, would constitute a default thereunder. There are no claims or proceedings pending with respect to the Trust Fund. Since
January 9, 2018, NAC has not released any money from the Trust Fund (other than interest income earned on the principal held in
the Trust Fund as permitted by the Trust Agreement). As of the First Effective Time, the obligations of NAC to dissolve or liquidate
pursuant to NAC’s Organizational Documents shall terminate, and as of the First Effective Time, NAC shall have no obligation
whatsoever pursuant to NAC’s Organizational Documents to dissolve and liquidate the assets of NAC by reason of the consummation
of the Transactions, and following the First Effective Time, no NAC stockholder shall be entitled to receive any amount from the
Trust Fund except to the extent such NAC stockholder is a Redeeming Stockholder. NAC has no reason to believe that, as of the First
Effective Time, any of the conditions to the use of funds in the Trust Fund will not be satisfied or funds available in the Trust
Fund will not be available to ParentCo or any of its Affiliates on the Closing Date, other than with respect to satisfy any redemption
payments owed to Redeeming Stockholders.

Against Trust Fund.

from the Trust Fund only: (i) to Redeeming Stockholders who exercise their Redemption Rights or in the event of the dissolution

combination; or (iii) as consideration to the sellers of a target business with which NAC completes a business combination.
(b) The Company, Blocker
and the Blocker Holder agree that, notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the Company, Blocker and the

against, the Trust Fund, regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to,
the business relationship between the Company on the one hand, and NAC on the other hand, this Agreement, or any other agreement
or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability
(any and all such claims are collectively referred to in this Section 6.04(b) as the “Claims”). Notwithstanding
any other provision contained in this Agreement, the Company, Blocker and the Blocker Holder hereby irrevocably waive any Claim
it may have, now or in the future (in each case, however, prior to the consummation of a business combination), and will not seek
recourse against the Trust Fund for any reason whatsoever in respect thereof; provided, however, that the foregoing waiver
will not limit or prohibit or limit the Company, Blocker and the Blocker Holder from (i) pursuing a claim against NAC or the stockholders
of NAC pursuant to this Agreement for specific performance or other equitable relief in connection with the Transactions or (ii)
pursuing any claims that the Company, Blocker and the Blocker Holder may have against NAC’s assets or funds that are not
held in the Trust Fund. In the event that the Company, Blocker or the Blocker Holder commences any action or proceeding based upon,
in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to NAC which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief
against the Trust Fund in violation of the foregoing, NAC shall be entitled to recover from the Company, Blocker or the Blocker
Holder the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such action, in the event NAC prevails in such action or proceeding.

tendered (and not withdrawn) Eight Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand (8,250,000) NAC Warrants (the “Minimum Condition”)
and (ii) the First Merger shall have been consummated. The Tender Offer shall be coupled with a consent solicitation that shall

or waive any of the terms or conditions of the Tender Offer, including any change to the form of consideration to be delivered
by NAC pursuant to the Tender Offer, the Offer Price, the Minimum Condition or the Tender Offer Expiration Date.
(c) On the Offer Commencement
Date, NAC shall: (i) cause to be filed with the SEC, a statement of Tender Offer on Schedule TO with respect to the Tender Offer
(together with all amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”); and (ii) disseminate to holders of
NAC Warrants a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the

Board Recommendation. NAC shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such Schedule TO and Schedule 14D-9, and all exhibits, amendments
and supplements thereto (collectively, the “Offer Documents”) and the filing and dissemination thereof to comply
in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and with
all other applicable Laws. The Company, the Blocker Holder and Blocker shall each furnish to NAC all information concerning the
Company, the Blocker Holder and Blocker, as applicable, including a description of their businesses, management, operations and

prior to the filing thereof with the SEC and NAC shall give reasonable consideration to any such comments. NAC shall promptly notify
the Company and its legal counsel upon the receipt of any comments received by NAC or its legal counsel from the SEC or its staff
with respect to the Offer Documents, or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Offer Documents, and shall
promptly provide the Company and its legal counsel with copies of all written correspondence between the Company and its Representatives,
on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand, or, if not in writing, a description of such communication. NAC shall give the
Company and its legal counsel a reasonable opportunity to participate in preparing NAC’s proposed response to comments received
from the SEC or its staff and to promptly provide comments on any proposed response thereto, and NAC shall give reasonable consideration
to any such comments. Each of NAC and the Company: (i) shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond promptly to any comments
of the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer Documents or the Tender Offer; and (ii) to the extent required by the applicable
requirements of United States securities Laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, shall use its reasonable
best efforts to promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Offer Documents to the extent such information shall
be or shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and NAC shall take all steps necessary to cause the Offer
Documents, as supplemented or amended to correct such information, to be filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by the
United States securities Laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, to be disseminated to holders of
NAC Warrants.
(d) The Company, the
Blocker Holder and Blocker acknowledge that a substantial portion of the Offer Documents will include disclosures regarding the
Company, the Blocker Holder and Blocker and their businesses, management, operations and financial condition. Accordingly, the
Company and Blocker agree to (i) provide, as promptly as practicable, NAC with such information as shall be reasonably requested
by NAC for inclusion in or attachment to the applicable Offer Document to be filed and/or mailed as of and following the commencement
of the Tender Offer and (ii) ensure that such information is accurate in all material respects, does not contain any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading. The Company, the Blocker Holder and Blocker understand that such information shall
be included in the Offer Documents and/or responses to comments from the SEC or its staff in connection therewith. The Company,
the Blocker Holder and Blocker shall make their respective directors, managers, officers and employees available to NAC and its
counsel in connection with the drafting of such filings and mailings and responding in a timely manner to comments from the SEC.
SECTION 7.08 Employee
Benefits Matters.
(a) With respect to each
person who is an employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary immediately prior to the Closing (a “Continuing Employee”),
for the period beginning on the Closing Date, and ending on the six month anniversary of the date of this Agreement, or, in each
case, if earlier, on the date of the termination of employment of the relevant Continuing Employee (the “Continuation
Period”), the Company or such Company Subsidiary, as applicable, shall provide each such Continuing Employee with (i) a
base salary or base wage rate and cash incentive compensation and commission opportunities (excluding equity compensation opportunities)
that are no less favorable to the Continuing Employee’s base salary or base wage rate and cash incentive compensation and
commission opportunities (excluding equity compensation opportunities) in effect for such Continuing Employee as of immediately
prior to the Closing, and (ii) with employee retirement, health, welfare and other material fringe benefits (excluding any
defined benefit pension plans and equity compensation plans) that are substantially similar, in the aggregate, to those being provided
or made available to such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Closing under the Company Employee Benefit Plans.
(b) For purposes of eligibility
to participate and vesting and, with respect to the determination of the level or amount of benefits for the Continuation Period
and, benefit accrual under the benefit and compensation plans, programs, agreements and arrangements of ParentCo, NAC, the Company
or any of their respective Affiliates (the “NAC Plans”) in which Continuing Employees are eligible to participate
following the Closing, other than any retiree medical plan, equity compensation plan and/or defined benefit plan, ParentCo, NAC,
the Company or their respective Subsidiaries shall credit each Continuing Employee with his or her years of service with the Company,
the Company Subsidiaries and any predecessor entities, to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled immediately
prior to the Closing to credit for such service under any similar Company Employee Benefit Plan, except where such credit would
result in a duplication of benefits. ParentCo shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to
cause each Continuing Employee to be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all NAC Plans that
are group health plans to the extent coverage under such NAC Plan replaces coverage under a substantially similar Company Employee
Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before such replacement to the extent such waiting time
was met under such Company Employee Benefit Plan. For purposes of each NAC Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or
vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, ParentCo shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts
to cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such NAC Plan to be waived for such Continuing
Employee and his or her covered dependents to the extent such requirements were met or not applicable under the corresponding Company
Employee Benefit Plan, and ParentCo shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any
eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents under a Company Employee Benefit Plan
during the portion of the plan year prior to the Closing Date to be taken into account under such NAC Plan for purposes of satisfying
all deductible, co-insurance, co-payment and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered
dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such NAC Plan.
(c) The provisions of
this Section 7.08 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no provision of this Section 7.08
shall constitute or be deemed to (i) guarantee employment for any period of time for, or preclude the ability of ParentCo, NAC
or the Company (or any of their Affiliates) to terminate, any Continuing Employee, other employee or other service provider for
any reason, (ii) confer upon any person (including any current or former director, officer or employee of, or consultant or independent

with the other party, prior to announcement or issuance), no party to this Agreement shall make any other public statement or issue

SECTION 10.04 Severability.
If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public
policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the
economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination
that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good
faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable
manner in order that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
SECTION 10.05 Entire
Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the
parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall not be assigned (whether pursuant to a
merger, by operation of law or otherwise); provided, however, that the Company may assign its rights (in whole or
in part) under this Agreement to any lender or financing source, but in no event shall any such assignment release the Company
from any of its obligations under this Agreement.
SECTION 10.06 Specific
Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in
accordance with the terms hereof, and, accordingly, that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent
breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof (including the parties’
obligation to consummate the Transactions) in the Delaware Chancery Court or, if that court does not have subject matter jurisdiction,
any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware without proof of actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any
other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereby further waives (a) any defense in any action
for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any Law to post security or a bond
as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.
SECTION 10.07 Parties
in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and nothing in this
Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature
whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, other than Section 7.07 (which is intended to be for the benefit of
the persons covered thereby and may be enforced by such persons).
SECTION 10.08 Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to
contracts executed in and to be performed in that State. All actions and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement
shall be heard and determined exclusively in any Delaware Chancery Court, or if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction,
any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware, provided that the Second Merger, and such other provisions
of this Agreement expressly required by the terms of this Agreement to be governed by the TBOC, shall be governed by the TBOC.
The parties hereto hereby (a) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Chancery Court for the purpose of any Action
arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto, and (b) irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert
by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of
the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient
forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the Transactions may not be enforced in or by any of
the above-named courts.
SECTION 10.09 Waiver
of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any right it may
have to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this
Agreement or the Transactions. Each of the parties hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other
party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that
foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the
Transactions, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 10.09.
SECTION 10.10 Headings.
The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any
way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
SECTION 10.11 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission) in one or
more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to
be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
SECTION 10.12 Securityholder
Representative.
(a) The parties have
agreed that it is desirable to designate a representative to act on behalf of Blocker Holder and the Company Unitholders (the “Securityholders”).
By voting in favor of the adoption of the Transactions or participating therein and receiving the benefits thereof, including the
right to receive the consideration payable in connection herewith, each Securityholder shall be deemed to have approved the designation
of, and hereby designates, Shareholder Representative Services LLC as its representative, agent and attorney-in-fact for all purposes
in connection with this Agreement and the agreements ancillary hereto (the “Securityholder Representative”).
The Securityholders hereby designate Shareholder Representative Services LLC as the initial Securityholder Representative. The
Securityholder Representative may resign at any time, and the Securityholder Representative may be removed by the affirmative vote
of the Blocker Holder and persons which collectively owned more than fifty percent (50%) membership interests of the Company as
of immediately prior to the Second Effective Time, voting together as a single class (the “Majority Holders”).
In the event that a Securityholder Representative has resigned or been removed, a new Securityholder Representative shall be appointed
by a vote of the Majority Holders, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Securityholder
Representative. The Securityholder Representative shall have such powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the functions
assigned to it under this Agreement and the agreements ancillary hereto; provided, however, that the Securityholder Representative
shall have no obligation to act on behalf of the Securityholders except as expressly provided herein. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Securityholder Representative shall have full power, authority and discretion to, after the Second Effective
Time (i) negotiate and enter into amendments to this Agreement for and on behalf of the Securityholders, (ii) give and receive
notices and other communications relating to this Agreement and the Transactions on behalf of the Securityholder, (iii) take or
refrain from taking any actions (whether by negotiation, settlement, litigation or otherwise) to resolve or settle all matters
and disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement and the Transactions and (iv) take all actions necessary or appropriate
in the judgment of the Securityholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing, including with respect to any determination
or dispute related to the Contingency Consideration.
The Securityholder Representative shall
have no liability to NAC, ParentCo, Blocker, Merger Sub Corp, Merger Sub LLC, the Company or the Surviving Company or any Securityholder
with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken, except to the extent directly arising out of the Securityholder Representative’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Securityholder Representative shall be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and
other agents and consultants as it shall deem necessary in connection with exercising its powers and performing its function hereunder
and shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such persons and shall have no liability for such reliance.
The Securityholder Representative shall be entitled to reimbursement solely from the Securityholders (pro rata in proportion to
Cash Consideration and ParentCo Common Shares issuable to such Securityholder at the Closing as set forth on the Payment Spreadsheet)
for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances (including fees and disbursements of its counsel, experts and other agents
and consultants) incurred by the Securityholder Representative. The Securityholders will (pro rata in proportion to Cash Consideration
and ParentCo Common Shares issuable to such Securityholder at the Closing as set forth on the Payment Spreadsheet) indemnify, defend
and hold harmless the Securityholder Representative from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties,
fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs
and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Representative Losses”) arising
out of or in connection with the Securityholder Representative’s execution and performance of this Agreement, in each case
as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally
adjudicated to have been directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Securityholder Representative, the
Securityholder Representative will reimburse each Securityholder (pro rata in proportion to Cash Consideration and ParentCo Common
Shares issuable to such Securityholder at the Closing as set forth on the Payment Spreadsheet) the amount of such indemnified Representative
Loss to the extent attributable to such gross negligence or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Securityholder Representative
by the Securityholders, any such Representative Losses may be recovered by the Securityholder Representative from the funds in
the Expense Fund; provided, that while this section allows the Securityholder Representative to be paid from the aforementioned
sources of funds, this does not relieve the Securityholders from their obligation to promptly pay such Representative Losses as
they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Securityholder Representative from seeking any remedies available to it
at law or otherwise. In no event will the Securityholder Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Securityholders
or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification
obligations of the Securityholders set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided
to the Securityholder Representative under this section. The Securityholders acknowledge and agree that the foregoing indemnities
will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Securityholder Representative or the termination of this Agreement.
Upon the Closing, the Company will wire an amount of $200,000 (the “Expense Fund”) to the Securityholder Representative,
which will be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Securityholder Representative for, any third party expenses
pursuant to this Agreement and the agreements ancillary hereto. The Securityholders will not receive any interest or earnings on
the Expense Fund and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Securityholder Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise
have had in any such interest or earnings. The Securityholder Representative will not be liable for any loss of principal of the
Expense Fund other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Securityholder Representative will hold
these funds separate from its corporate funds, will not use these funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes
and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. As soon as practicable following
the completion of the Securityholder Representative’s responsibilities, the Securityholder Representative will deliver any
remaining balance of the Expense Fund to the Exchange Agent for further distribution to the Securityholders. For tax purposes,
the Expense Fund will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Securityholders at the time of Closing.
SECTION 10.13 Construction.
In this Agreement:
(a) References to particular
sections and subsections, schedules, and exhibits not otherwise specified are cross-references to sections and subsections, schedules,
and exhibits of this Agreement.
(b) The words “herein,”
“hereof,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular
provision of this Agreement, and, unless the context requires otherwise, “party” means a party signatory hereto.
(c) Any use of the singular
or plural, or the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender, includes the others, unless the context otherwise requires; “including”
means “including without limitation;” “or” means “and/or;” “any” means “any
one, more than one, or all”.
(d) Unless otherwise
specified, any reference to any reference to a statute or other law includes any rule, regulation, ordinance, or the like promulgated
thereunder, in each case, as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time. Any reference to a numbered
schedule means the same-numbered section of the Company Disclosure Schedule. Any reference in a schedule contained in the Company
Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to be an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) the applicable representations
and warranties (or applicable covenants) that are contained in the section or subsection of this Agreement that corresponds to
such schedule and any other representations and warranties (or applicable covenants) contained in this Agreement to which the relevance
of such item thereto is reasonably apparent on its face. The mere inclusion of an item in a schedule as an exception to (or, as
applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) a representation or warranty (or applicable covenants) shall not be deemed an admission
that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item would have a Company Material
Adverse Effect or establish any standard of materiality to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes of this Agreement.
(e) If any action is
required to be taken or notice is required to be given within a specified number of days following a specific date or event, the
day of such date or event is not counted in determining the last day for such action or notice. If any action is required to be
taken or notice is required to be given on or before a particular day which is not a Business Day, such action or notice shall
be considered timely if it is taken or given on or before the next Business Day.
(f) Captions are not
a part of this Agreement, but are included for convenience, only.

Subscription Agreement
Nebula

Four
Embarcadero Center, Suite 2350
San
Francisco, California 94111
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
In
connection with the proposed business combination (the “Transaction”) pursuant to the terms of that certain
Business Combination Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, as may be amended from time to time, by and among Nebula Acquisition
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Open Lending, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Open
Lending”), BRP Hold 11, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Nebula Parent Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Pubco”),
NBLA Merger Sub LLC, a Texas limited liability company, NBLA Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation, and a Securityholder Representative,
which is expected to result in the mergers of each of the Company and Open Lending into subsidiaries of Pubco, the undersigned
desires to subscribe for and purchase from the Company, and the Company desires to sell to the undersigned, that number of shares
of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), which will convert
into shares of common stock of Pubco (the “Pubco Shares”) upon consummation of the Transaction, set forth on
the signature page hereof for a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “Purchase Price”), on the terms and
subject to the conditions contained herein. In connection therewith, the undersigned and the Company agree as follows:
1.
Subscription. The undersigned hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company such number of
shares of Common Stock as is set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions
provided for herein (the “Shares”). The undersigned understands and agrees that the Company reserves the right
to accept or reject the undersigned’s subscription for the Shares for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part,
at any time prior to its acceptance by the Company, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by the Company only when this
Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of the Company; the Company may do so in counterpart
form. In the event of rejection of the entire subscription by the Company or the termination of this subscription in accordance
with the terms hereof, the undersigned’s payment hereunder will be returned promptly (but not later than two (2) business
days thereafter) to the undersigned along with this Subscription Agreement, and this Subscription Agreement shall have no force
or effect.
2.
Closing. The closing of the sale of the Shares contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon
the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction. The Closing shall occur on the date of, and immediately prior to,
the consummation of the Transaction. Following written notice from (or on behalf of) the Company to the undersigned (the “Closing
Notice”) that the Company reasonably expects (i) all conditions to the closing of the Transaction to be satisfied or
waived and (ii) the Closing to occur on a date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date of the Closing Notice,
the undersigned shall deliver to the Company, at least two (2) business days prior to the anticipated Closing date specified in
the Closing Notice (the “Closing Date”), or such other time agreed to between the Company and the undersigned,
the subscription amount for the Shares by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account
specified by the Company in the Closing Notice against delivery to the undersigned of the Shares in book entry form as set forth
in the following sentence. The Company shall deliver (or cause the delivery of) (i) the Shares in book entry form to the undersigned
(or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) or to a custodian designated by undersigned, as applicable, as indicated
below and (ii) written evidence from the Company’s transfer agent reflecting the issuance of such Shares on and as of the
Closing Date. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect, without any liability to either
party hereto, if the Company notifies the undersigned in writing that it has abandoned its plans to move forward with the Transaction.
If this Subscription Agreement terminates following the delivery by the undersigned of the purchase price for the Shares, the
Company shall promptly (but not later than two (2) business days thereafter) return the purchase price to the undersigned.
3.
Closing Conditions. The Closing is also subject to the conditions that, on the Closing Date:
a.
all representations and warranties of the Company and the undersigned contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and
correct in all material respects (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse
Effect (as defined herein), which representations and warranties shall be true in all respects) at and as of the Closing Date,
and consummation of the Closing shall constitute a reaffirmation by each of the Company and the undersigned of each of the representations,
warranties and agreements of each such party contained in this Subscription Agreement as of the Closing Date, but in each case
without giving effect to consummation of the Transaction;
b.
the Company shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all covenants, agreements and conditions
required by this Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Closing;
c.
no governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation
(whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise restraining or prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and
no governmental authority shall have instituted or threatened in writing a proceeding seeking to impose any such restraint or
prohibition;
d.
as of the Closing Date, there has been no material adverse change in the business, properties, financial condition, stockholders’
equity or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole since the date of this Subscription Agreement
(other than (i) the election by holders of the Common Stock to exercise redemption rights in connection with (x) the special meeting
of the Company’s stockholders to approve the Transaction or (y) a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to
approve the extension of time for the Company to complete a business combination, and (ii) in connection with any offer to purchase
outstanding warrants to purchase Existing Class A Shares (as defined below) of the Company (the “Warrants”)), and
consummation of the Closing shall constitute a representation of the Company of such facts;
e.
Pubco’s initial listing application with the Nasdaq Capital Market in connection with the Transaction shall have been approved
and, immediately following the Closing, Pubco shall satisfy any applicable initial and continuing listing requirements of the
Nasdaq Capital Market and Pubco shall not have received any notice of non-compliance therewith, and the Pubco Shares, shall have
been approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market; and
f.
all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction, including the approval of the Company’s stockholders, shall
have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions which, by their nature, are to be satisfied at the closing of the Transaction).
4.
Further Assurances. At the Closing, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take such
additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be practical and necessary in order to consummate the subscription as
contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.
5.

a.
The Company has been duly incorporated, is validly existing and is in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with
corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted.
b.
The Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the undersigned against full payment therefor in accordance

d.
The issuance and sale of the Shares and the compliance by the Company with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement
and the consummation of the transactions herein will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms
or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon
any of the property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage,
deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries
is a party or by which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company
is subject, which would have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, financial condition, stockholders’ equity
or results of operations of the Company (a “Material Adverse Effect”) or materially affect the validity of
the Shares or the legal authority of the Company to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement;
(ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of the Company; or (iii) result in any violation
of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having
jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties that would have a Material Adverse Effect or materially affect the validity
of the Shares or the legal authority of the Company to comply with this Subscription Agreement; subject, in the case of the foregoing
clauses (i) and (iii) with respect to the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated.
e.
There are no securities or instruments issued by or to which the Company is a party containing anti-dilution or similar provisions
that will be triggered by the issuance of (i) the Shares or (ii) the shares to be issued pursuant to any subscription agreements
with the Company substantially similar to this Subscription Agreement (the “Other Subscription Agreements”),
that have not been or will not be validly waived on or prior to the Closing Date.
f.
The Company is not in default or violation (and no event has occurred which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute
a default or violation) of any term, condition or provision of (i) the organizational documents of the Company, (ii) any loan
or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, permit, franchise or license to which the Company
is now a party or by which the Company’s properties or assets are bound or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule
or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any of
its properties, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for defaults or violations that have not had and would not be reasonably
likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
g.
The Company is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or
registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other
person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Subscription Agreement (including, without
limitation, the issuance of the Shares), other than (i) the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
of the Registration Statement (as defined below), (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) the filing
of a Notice of Exempt Offering of Securities on Form D with the Commission under Regulation D of the Securities Act, (iv) the
filings required in accordance with Section 7 of this Subscription Agreement; (v) those required by the Nasdaq Stock Market (the
“Nasdaq”), including with respect to obtaining stockholder approval, and (vi) the failure of which to obtain
would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
h.
As of the date hereof, the authorized capital stock of the Company consists of (i) 100,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock,
par value $0.0001 per share (“Existing Class A Shares”); (ii) 10,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par

i.
The Company has not received any written communication since December 31, 2018, from a governmental entity that alleges that the
Company is not in compliance with or is in default or violation of any applicable law, except where such non-compliance, default
or violation, would not individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
j.
The issued and outstanding Existing Class A Shares are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and are listed for trading on Nasdaq under the symbol “NEBU.”
Except as otherwise disclosed by the Company in the SEC Documents (as defined below), there is no suit, action, proceeding or
investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company by Nasdaq or the Commission with respect
to any intention by such entity to deregister the Existing Class A Shares or prohibit or terminate the listing of the Existing
Class A Shares on Nasdaq. The Company has taken no action that is designed to terminate the registration of the Existing Class
A Shares under the Exchange Act.
k.
Assuming the accuracy of the undersigned’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 6 of this Subscription Agreement,
no registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Shares by the Company to the undersigned.
l.
Neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf has engaged or will engage in any form of general solicitation or general
advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D of the Securities Act) in connection with any offer or sale of the Shares.

The Company has not entered into any side letter or similar agreement with any investor in connection with such investor’s
direct or indirect investment in the Company other than the Other Subscription Agreements relating to the issuance and sale by
the Company of Class A Common Stock at the Purchase Price.
n.
The Company has made available to the undersigned (including via the Commission’s EDGAR system) a true, correct and complete
copy of each form, report, statement, schedule, prospectus, proxy, registration statement and other documents filed by the Company
with the Commission since its initial registration of the Existing Class A Shares (the “SEC Documents”) and
prior to the date of this Subscription Agreement. None of the SEC Documents filed under the Exchange Act contained, when filed
or, if amended prior to the date of this Subscription Agreement, as of the date of such amendment with respect to those disclosures
that are amended, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company
has timely filed each report, statement, schedule, prospectus, and registration statement that the Company was required to file
with the Commission since its inception. As of the date hereof, there are no material outstanding or unresolved comments in comment
letters from the Commission staff with respect to any of the SEC Documents.
o.
Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) suit, action, charge, complaint, arbitration, labor dispute or similar
proceeding pending, or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction,
ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against the Company.
p.
Except for commissions and expenses payable to Deutsche Bank Securities and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (the “Placement

6.

of 1986, as amended, or any applicable similar law.
e.

f.
The undersigned became aware of this offering of the Shares solely by means of direct contact between the undersigned and the
Company or a representative of the Company, and the Shares were offered to the undersigned solely by direct contact between the
undersigned and the Company or a representative of the Company. The undersigned did not become aware of this offering of the Shares,
nor were the Shares offered to the undersigned, by any other means. The undersigned acknowledges that the Company represents and
warrants that the Shares (i) were not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being
offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state

g.
The undersigned acknowledges that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the Shares.
The undersigned has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of an investment in the Shares, and the undersigned has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as the undersigned
has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision.
h.
Alone, or together with any professional advisor(s), the undersigned has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of
an investment in the Shares and determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for the undersigned and that the undersigned
is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of the undersigned’s investment
in the Company. The undersigned acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.
i.
In making its decision to purchase the Shares, the undersigned has relied solely upon independent investigation made by the undersigned.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the undersigned has not relied on any statements or other information provided
by the Placement Agents (as defined below) concerning the Company or the Shares or the offer and sale of the Shares.
j.
The undersigned understands and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering
of the Shares or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.
k.
The undersigned has been duly formed or incorporated and is validly existing in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction
of incorporation or formation.
l.
The execution, delivery and performance by the undersigned of this Subscription Agreement are within the powers of the undersigned,

regulation of any court or other tribunal or of any governmental commission or agency, or any agreement or other undertaking,
to which the undersigned is a party or by which the undersigned is bound, and, if the undersigned is not an individual, will not
violate any provisions of the undersigned’s charter documents, including, without limitation, its incorporation or formation
papers, bylaws, indenture of trust or partnership or operating agreement, as may be applicable. The signature on this Subscription
Agreement is genuine, and the signatory, if the undersigned is an individual, has legal competence and capacity to execute the
same or, if the undersigned is not an individual, the signatory has been duly authorized to execute the same, and this Subscription
Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the undersigned, enforceable against the undersigned in accordance
with its terms.
m.
Neither the due diligence investigation conducted by the undersigned in connection with making its decision to acquire the Shares
nor any representations and warranties made by the undersigned herein shall modify, amend or affect the undersigned’s right
to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of the Company’s representations and warranties contained herein.
n.
The undersigned is not (i) a person or entity named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons administered
by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or in any Executive Order
issued by the President of the United States and administered by OFAC (“OFAC List”), or a person or entity
prohibited by any OFAC sanctions program, (ii) a Designated National as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R.
Part 515, or (iii) a non-U.S. shell bank or providing banking services indirectly to a non-U.S. shell bank (collectively, a “Prohibited
Investor”). The undersigned agrees to provide law enforcement agencies, if requested thereby, such records as required
by applicable law, provided that the undersigned is permitted to do so under applicable law. If the undersigned is a financial
institution subject to the Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. Section 5311 et seq.) (the “BSA”), as amended by the
USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (the “PATRIOT Act”), and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT
Act”), the undersigned maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under
the BSA/PATRIOT Act. To the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed for the screening of its
investors against the OFAC sanctions programs, including the OFAC List. To the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures
reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by the undersigned and used to purchase the Shares were legally derived.
o.
No disclosure or offering document has been prepared by the Placement Agents or any of their respective affiliates in connection
with the offer and sale of the Shares.
p.
The Placement Agents and their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and controlling persons have made no
independent investigation with respect to the Company or the Shares or the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of any information
supplied to the undersigned by the Company.
q.
In connection with the issue and purchase of the Shares, the Placement Agents have not acted as the undersigned’s financial
advisor or fiduciary.
r.
If the undersigned is a resident or subject to the laws of Canada, the undersigned hereby declares, represents, warrants and agrees
as set forth in the attached Schedule B.
7.
Registration Rights.
a.
In the event that the Pubco Shares issuable upon conversion of the Shares are not registered in connection with the consummation
of the Transaction, Pubco agrees that, within forty-five (45) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction (the “Filing
Date”), Pubco will file with the Commission (at Pubco’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “Registration
Statement”) registering such resale, and Pubco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration
Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 90th calendar
day (or 120th calendar day if the Commission notifies Pubco that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following
the Closing and (ii) the 10th business day after the date Pubco is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the
Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (such earlier
date, the “Effectiveness Date”); provided, however, that if the Commission is closed for operations
due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Date shall be extended by the same amount of days that the Commission remains
closed for operations, provided, further, that Pubco’s obligations to include the Pubco Shares in the Registration
Statement are contingent upon the undersigned furnishing in writing to Pubco such information regarding the undersigned, the securities
of Pubco held by the undersigned and the intended method of disposition of the Pubco Shares as shall be reasonably requested by
Pubco to effect the registration of the Pubco Shares, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as
Pubco may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. For purposes of clarification,
any failure by Pubco to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Date or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness
Date shall not otherwise relieve Pubco of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement as set forth above in this
Section 7.
b.
Pubco further agrees that, in the event that (i) the Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Commission
by the Effectiveness Date, (ii) after such Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, (A) such Registration
Statement ceases for any reason (including by reason of a stop order, or Pubco’s failure to update the Registration Statement),
to remain continuously effective as to all Shares for which it is required to be effective or (B) the undersigned is not permitted
to utilize the Registration Statement to resell the Shares (in each case of (A) and (B), (x) other than within the time period(s)
permitted by this Subscription Agreement and (y) excluding by reason of a post-effective amendment required in connection with
Pubco’s filing of an amendment thereto (a “Special Grace Period”) (which Special Grace Period shall not
be treated as a Registration Default (as defined below)), or (iii) after the date one year following the Closing Date, and only
in the event the Registration Statement is not effective or available to sell all Shares, Pubco fails to file with the Commission
any required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act such that it is not in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule
144(i)(2), if applicable), as a result of which investors who are not affiliates of Pubco are unable to sell the Shares without
restriction under Rule 144 (or any successor thereto) (each such event referred to in clauses (i) through (iii), a “Registration
Default” and, for purposes of such clauses, the date on which such Registration Default occurs, a “Default
Date”), then in addition to any other rights the undersigned may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such
Default Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Default Date (if the applicable Registration Default shall not have
been cured by such date) until the applicable Registration Default is cured, Pubco shall pay to the undersigned an amount in cash,
as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty (“Liquidated Damages”), equal to 0.5% of the aggregate Purchase
Price paid by the undersigned pursuant to this Subscription Agreement for any Pubco Shares held by the undersigned on the Default
Date; provided, however, that if the undersigned fails to provide Pubco with any information requested by Pubco that is
required to be provided in such Registration Statement with respect to the undersigned as set forth herein, then, for purposes
of this Section 7, the Filing Date or Effectiveness Date, as applicable, for a Registration Statement with respect to the undersigned
shall be extended until two (2) business days following the date of receipt by Pubco of such required information from the undersigned;
and in no event shall Pubco be required hereunder to pay to the undersigned pursuant to this Subscription Agreement an aggregate
amount that exceeds 5.0% of the aggregate Purchase Price paid by the undersigned for its Shares. The Liquidated Damages pursuant
to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of a Registration Default,
except in the case of the first Default Date. Pubco shall deliver the cash payment to the undersigned with respect to any Liquidated
Damages by the fifth business day after the date payable. If Pubco fails to pay said cash payment to the undersigned in full by
the fifth business day after the date payable, Pubco will pay interest thereon at a rate of 5.0% per annum (or such lesser maximum
amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law, and calculated on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days) to the undersigned,
accruing daily from the date such Liquidated Damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall preclude the undersigned from pursuing or obtaining any available remedies at law,
specific performance or other equitable relief with respect to this Section 7 in accordance with applicable law. The parties agree
that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Liquidated Damages shall be payable to the undersigned with respect to
any period during which all of the undersigned’s Pubco Shares may be sold by the undersigned without volume or manner of
sale restrictions under Rule 144 and Pubco is in compliance with the current public information requirements under Rule 144(c)(1)
(or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable).
c.
In the case of the registration, qualification, exemption or compliance effected by Pubco pursuant to this Subscription Agreement,
Pubco shall, upon reasonable request, inform the undersigned as to the status of such registration, qualification, exemption and
compliance. At its expense Pubco shall:
| |
i. |
except
for such times as Pubco is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement,
use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration, and any qualification, exemption or compliance under state
securities laws which Pubco determines to obtain, continuously effective with respect to the undersigned, and to keep the
applicable Registration Statement or any subsequent shelf registration statement free of any material misstatements or omissions,
until the earlier of the following: (i) the undersigned ceases to hold any Shares or (ii) the date all Shares held by the
undersigned may be sold without restriction under Rule 144, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions
which may be applicable to affiliates under Rule 144 and without the requirement for Pubco to be in compliance with the current
public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable), and (iii) three years from the Effective
Date of the Registration Statement. The period of time during which Pubco is required hereunder to keep a Registration Statement
effective is referred to herein as the “Registration Period”; |
| ii. | advise
the undersigned within five (5) business days: (1) when a Registration Statement or any
amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when such Registration Statement
or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; (2) of any request by the
Commission for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus
included therein or for additional information; (3) of the issuance by the Commission
of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation
of any proceedings for such purpose; (4) of the receipt by Pubco of any notification
with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Shares included therein for
sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such
purpose; and (5) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence
of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or
prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do
not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made) not misleading. |
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein, Pubco shall not, when so advising the undersigned of such events, provide the undersigned
with any material, nonpublic information regarding Pubco other than to the extent that providing notice to the undersigned of
the occurrence of the events listed in (1) through (5) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding Pubco;
| iii. | use
its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending
the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable; |
| iv. | upon
the occurrence of any event contemplated above, except for such times as Pubco is permitted
hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration
Statement, Pubco shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably
practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement
to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter
delivered to purchasers of the Shares included therein, such prospectus will not include
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading; |
| v. | use
its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Shares to be listed on each securities
exchange or market, if any, on which the Existing Parent Class A Shares issued by Pubco
have been listed; and |
| vi. | use
its commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration
of the Shares contemplated hereby and to enable the undersigned to sell the Shares under
Rule 144. |
d.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, Pubco shall be entitled to delay or postpone the effectiveness
of the Registration Statement, and from time to time to require the undersigned not to sell under the Registration Statement or
to suspend the effectiveness thereof, if the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by Pubco or its subsidiaries is pending
or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event Pubco’s board of directors reasonably believes, upon
the advice of legal counsel, would require additional disclosure by Pubco in the Registration Statement of material information
that Pubco has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the non-disclosure of which in the Registration Statement
would be expected, in the reasonable determination of Pubco’s board of directors, upon the advice of legal counsel, to cause
the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (each such circumstance, a “Suspension
Event”); provided, however, that Pubco may not delay or suspend the Registration Statement on more than two occasions
or for more than sixty (60) consecutive calendar days, or more than ninety (90) total calendar days, in each case during any twelve-month
period. Upon receipt of any written notice from Pubco of the happening of any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration
Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, the undersigned
agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Shares under the Registration Statement (excluding, for
the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until the undersigned receives copies of a supplemental or amended
prospectus (which Pubco agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives
notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by Pubco that it may resume such offers
and sales, and (ii) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by Pubco
unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by Pubco, the undersigned will deliver to Pubco or, in the undersigned’s
sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Shares in the undersigned’s possession; provided, however,
that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Shares shall not apply (i) to the extent
the undersigned is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (a) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory
or professional requirements or (b) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (ii) to copies stored
electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.
e.
The undersigned may deliver written notice (including via email in accordance with this Subscription Agreement) (an “Opt-Out
Notice”) to Pubco requesting that the undersigned not receive notices from Pubco otherwise required by this Section
7; provided, however, that the undersigned may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an
Opt-Out Notice from the undersigned (unless subsequently revoked), (i) Pubco shall not deliver any such notices to the undersigned
and the undersigned shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with any such notice and (ii) each time prior to the
undersigned’s intended use of an effective Registration Statement, the undersigned will notify Pubco in writing at least
two (2) business days in advance of such intended use, and if a notice of a Suspension Event was previously delivered (or would
have been delivered but for the provisions of this Section 7(e)) and the related suspension period remains in effect, Pubco will
so notify the undersigned, within one (1) business day of the undersigned’s notification to Pubco, by delivering to the
undersigned a copy of such previous notice of Suspension Event, and thereafter will provide the undersigned with the related notice
of the conclusion of such Suspension Event immediately upon its availability.
f.
Indemnification.
| i. | Pubco
agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law the undersigned, its directors and
officers and agents and each person who controls the undersigned, if any, (within the
meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and
expenses (including attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement
of material fact contained in any Registration Statement or prospectus included in any
Registration Statement or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission
or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by
or contained in any information furnished in writing to Pubco by the undersigned expressly
for use therein. |
| ii. | In
connection with any Registration Statement in which the undersigned is participating,
the undersigned shall furnish to Pubco in writing such information and affidavits as
Pubco reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement
or prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify Pubco, its directors
and officers and agents and each person who controls Pubco (within the meaning of the
Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including
without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement
of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, prospectus, or any amendment
thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent
that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so
furnished in writing by the undersigned expressly for use therein; provided, however,
that the liability of the undersigned shall be several and not joint and shall be in
proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received from the sale of Shares pursuant
to such Registration Statement. |
| iii. | Any
person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) give prompt written notice to the
indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided
that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification
hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2)
permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party
shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party
without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying
party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the
fees and expenses of more than one (1) counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying
party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified
party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of
such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without
the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into
any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such
money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement)
or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the
claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect
to such claim or litigation. |
| iv. | the
indemnification provided for under this Subscription Agreement shall remain in full force
and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party
or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive
the transfer of securities. Each party participating in an offering also agrees to make
such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution
to such party in the event such party’s indemnification is unavailable for any
reason. |
| v. | If
the indemnification provided under this Section 7(f) from the indemnifying party is unavailable
to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying
the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified
party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified
party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of
the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact,
was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified
party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The
amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred
to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections
7(e)(i), (ii) and (iii) above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably
incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities
Act) shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 7(f) from any person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. |
8.
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 earlier to occur of (a) following the execution of a definitive agreement among the Company, Pubco and Open Lending
with respect to the Transaction (a “Transaction Agreement”), such date and time as such Transaction Agreement
is terminated in accordance with its terms without the Transaction being consummated, (b) upon the mutual written agreement
of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement; (c) if any of the conditions to Closing set forth
in Section 3 of this Subscription Agreement are not satisfied or waived on or prior to the Closing and, as a result thereof,
the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated at the Closing; or (d) December 31, 2020; provided
that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof 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 the undersigned of the termination of the Transaction Agreement after the termination
of such agreement.
9.
Trust Account Waiver. The undersigned acknowledges that the Company is a blank check company with the powers and privileges
to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses
or assets. The undersigned further acknowledges that, as described in the Company’s prospectus relating to its initial public
offering dated January 9, 2018 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of the Company’s
assets consist of the cash proceeds of the Company’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities, and
substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit
of the Company, its public shareholders and the underwriters of the Company’s initial public offering. For and in consideration
of the Company entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned
hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in
or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising
out of, this Subscription Agreement.
10.
Miscellaneous.
a.
Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the undersigned hereunder (other than the Shares acquired
hereunder, if any) may be transferred or assigned.
b.
The Company may request from the undersigned such additional information as the Company may deem necessary to evaluate the eligibility
of the undersigned to acquire the Shares, and the undersigned shall provide such information as may reasonably be requested, to
the extent readily available and to the extent consistent with its internal policies and procedures.
c.
The undersigned acknowledges that the Company, Open Lending, the Placement Agents and others will rely on the acknowledgments,
understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the
undersigned agrees to promptly notify the Company if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and
warranties set forth herein are no longer accurate. The undersigned agrees that each purchase by the undersigned of Shares from
the Company will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties
herein (as modified by any such notice) by the undersigned as of the time of such purchase. The undersigned further acknowledges
and agrees that the Placement Agents are third-party beneficiaries of the representations and warranties of the undersigned contained
in Section 6 of this Subscription Agreement.
d.
The Company is entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and is irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement
or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters
covered hereby.
e.
All the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the
Closing.
f.
This Subscription Agreement may not be modified, waived or terminated except by an instrument in writing, signed by the party
against whom enforcement of such modification, waiver, or termination is sought. For the avoidance of doubt, this Subscription
Agreement may not be modified, waived or terminated without the express written consent of Open Lending.
g.
This Subscription Agreement constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations
and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as otherwise expressly
set forth in subsection (c) of this Section 10, this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person
other than the parties hereto, and their respective successor and assigns.
h.
Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements,
representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon,
such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.
i.
If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability
of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full
force and effect.
j.
This Subscription Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf)
and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document.
All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.
k.
The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement
were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties
shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement and to enforce specifically
the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled
at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise.
l.
THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT
REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THAT WOULD OTHERWISE REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANY OTHER STATE. EACH
PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY LITIGATION PURSUANT TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
m.
The Company shall, by 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first (1st) business day immediately following the date of this Subscription
Agreement, issue one or more press releases or file with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (collectively, the “Disclosure
Document”) disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Transaction and any other material,
nonpublic information that the Company has provided to the undersigned at any time prior to the filing of the Disclosure Document.
From and after the issuance of the Disclosure Document. Notwithstanding anything in this Subscription Agreement to the contrary,
the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of the undersigned or any of its affiliates, or include the name of the undersigned
or any of its affiliates in any press release or in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or trading market,
without the prior written consent of the undersigned, except (i) as required by the federal securities law in connection with
the Registration Statement, (ii) in the filing of this Subscription Agreement with the Commission and in the related Current Report
on Form 8-K in a manner acceptable to the undersigned, (iii) in a press release or marketing materials of the Company in connection
with the Transaction in a manner reasonably acceptable to the undersigned and (iv) to the extent such disclosure is required by
law, at the request of the Staff of the Commission or regulatory agency or under the regulations of Nasdaq, in which case the
Company shall provide the undersigned with prior written notice of such disclosure permitted under this subclause (iv).

ELIGIBILITY
REPRESENTATIONS OF THE INVESTOR (Canadian Investors Only)
| 1. | We
hereby declare, represent and warrant that: |
| (a) | we
are purchasing the Shares as principal for our own account, or are deemed to be purchasing the Shares as principal for our own
account in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws, and not as agent for the benefit of another investor; |
| (b) | we
are residents in or subject to the laws of one of the provinces or territories of Canada; |
| (c) | we
are entitled under applicable securities laws to purchase the Shares without the benefit of a prospectus qualified under such
securities laws and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, are both: |
| a. | an
“accredited investor” as defined in section 1.1 of National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions (“NI
45-106”) or section 73.3(2) of the Securities Act (Ontario) by virtue of satisfying the indicated criterion in Section
11 below, and we are not a person created or used solely to purchase or hold securities as an “accredited investor”
as described in paragraph (m) of the definition of “accredited investor” in section 1.1 of NI 45-106; and |
| b. | a
“permitted client” as defined in section 1.1 of National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements, Exemptions
and Ongoing Registrant Obligations (“NI 31-103”) by virtue of satisfying the indicated criterion in Section 12
below |
| (d) | we
have received, reviewed and understood, this Subscription Agreement and certain disclosure materials relating to the placing of
Shares in Canada and, are basing our investment decision solely on this Subscription and the materials provided by the Company
and not on any other information concerning the Company or the offering of the Shares; |
| (e) | the
acquisition of Shares does not and will not contravene any applicable Canadian securities laws, rules or policies of the jurisdiction
in which we are resident and does not trigger (i) any obligation to prepare and file a prospectus or similar document or (ii)
any registration or other similar obligation on the part of any person; |
| (f) | we
will execute and deliver within the applicable time periods all documentation as may be required by applicable Canadian securities
laws to permit the purchase of the Shares on the terms set forth herein and, if required by applicable Canadian securities laws,
will execute, deliver and file or assist the Company in obtaining and filing such reports, undertakings and other documents relating
to the purchase of the Shares as may be required by any applicable Canadian securities laws, securities regulator, stock exchange
or other regulatory authority; and |
| (g) | neither
we nor any party on whose behalf we are acting has been established, formed or incorporated solely to acquire or permit the purchase
of Shares without a prospectus in reliance on an exemption from the prospectus requirements of applicable Canadian securities
laws. |
| 2. | We
are aware of the characteristics of the Shares, the risks relating to an investment therein and agree that we must bear the economic
risk of its investment in the Shares. We understand that we will not be able to resell the Shares under applicable Canadian securities
laws except in accordance with limited exemptions and compliance with other requirements of applicable law, and we (and not the
Company) are responsible for compliance with applicable resale restrictions or hold periods and will comply with all relevant
Canadian securities laws in connection with any resale of the Shares. |
| 3. | We
hereby undertake to notify the Company immediately of any change to any declaration, representation, warranty or other information
relating to us set forth herein which takes place prior to the closing of the purchase of the Shares applied for hereby. |
| 4. | We
understand and acknowledge that (i) the Company is not a reporting issuer in any province or territory in Canada and its securities
are not listed on any stock exchange in Canada and there is currently no public market for the Shares in Canada; and (ii) the
Company currently has no intention of becoming a reporting issuer in Canada and the Company is not obligated to file and has no
present intention of filing a prospectus with any securities regulatory authority in Canada to qualify the resale of the Shares
to the public, or listing the Company’s securities on any stock exchange in Canada and thus the applicable restricted period
or hold period may not commence and the Shares may be subject to an unlimited hold period or restricted period in Canada and in
that case may only be sold pursuant to limited exemptions under applicable securities legislation. |
| 5. | We
confirm we have reviewed applicable resale restrictions under relevant Canadian legislation and regulations. |
| 6. | It
is acknowledged that we should consult our own legal and tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of an investment in
the Shares in our particular circumstances and with respect to the eligibility of the Shares for investment by us and resale restrictions
under relevant Canadian legislation and regulations, and that we have not relied on the Company or on the contents of the disclosure
materials provided by the Company, for any legal, tax or financial advice. |
| 7. | If
we are a resident of Quebec, we acknowledge that it is our express wish that all documents evidencing or relating in any way to
the sale of the Shares be drawn in the English language only. Si nous sommes résidents de la province de Québec,
nous reconnaissons par les présentes que c’est notre volonté expresse que tous les documents faisant foi ou
se rapportant de quelque manière à la vente des engagements soient rédigés en anglais seulement. |
| 8. | We
understand and acknowledge that we are making the representations, warranties and agreements contained herein with the intent
that they may be relied upon by the Company and the agents in determining our eligibility to purchase the Shares, including the
availability of exemptions from the prospectus requirements of applicable Canadian securities laws in connection with the issuance
of the Shares. |

(e) This Agreement

for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto, and (ii) irrevocably
waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally
to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action
is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereunder may not be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts.
(h) This Agreement
may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission) in one or more counterparts,
and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but
all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
(i) Without further
consideration, each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered
such additional documents and instruments and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(j) This Agreement
shall not be effective or binding upon any Company Member until such time as the BCA is executed by each of the parties thereto.
(k) Each of the
parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect
to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto
(i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other
party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other
parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, as applicable, by, among
other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Paragraph (k).

LLC”), NBLA Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub Corp”) and certain other persons
propose to enter into, simultaneously herewith, a business combination agreement (the “BCA”; terms used but
not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the BCA), a copy of which has been made available to
each Founder, which provides, among other things, that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Merger Sub Corp
will be merged with and into NAC (the “First Merger”), with NAC surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned
subsidiary of ParentCo, and Merger Sub LLC will be merged with and into the Company (the “Second Merger”),
with the Company surviving the Second Merger as a direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ParentCo;
WHEREAS,
as of the date hereof, each Founder owns of record the number of shares of NAC Class B Common Stock as set forth opposite such
Founder’s name on Exhibit A hereto (all such shares of NAC Class B Common Stock and any shares of NAC Class B Common
Stock of which ownership of record or the power to vote is hereafter acquired by the Founders prior to the termination of this
Agreement being referred to herein as the “Shares”); and
WHEREAS,
in order to induce ParentCo, NAC and the Company to enter into the BCA, the Founders are executing and delivering this Agreement
to NAC and the Company.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be
legally bound hereby, each of the Founders (severally and not jointly), the Company and NAC hereby agrees as follows:
1. Agreement
to Vote. Each Founder, by this Agreement, with respect to its Shares, hereby agrees to vote,: (i) at any meeting of the stockholders
of NAC, and in any action by written consent of the stockholders of NAC, all of such Founder’s Shares (a) in favor of the
approval and adoption of the BCA, the transactions contemplated by the BCA and this Agreement, and (b) in favor of any other matter
reasonably necessary to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the BCA and considered and voted upon by the stockholders
of NAC. Each Founder acknowledges receipt and review of a copy of the BCA.; and (ii) at any meeting of the stockholders of NAC
or ParentCo, and in any action by written consent of the stockholders of NAC or ParentCo, all of such Founder’s Shares and
Founder’s shares of common stock of ParentCo, as applicable, in favor of the approval and adoption of the New Stock Incentive
Plan (as defined in the BCA).
2. Transfer
of Shares. Each of the Founders agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) sell, assign, transfer (including
by operation of law), lien, pledge, dispose of or otherwise encumber any of the Shares or otherwise agree to do any of the foregoing
(unless the transferee agrees to be bound by this Agreement), (b) deposit any Shares into a voting trust or enter into a
voting agreement or arrangement or grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect thereto that is inconsistent with this Agreement,
(c) enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or undertaking with respect to the direct or indirect acquisition
or sale, assignment, transfer (including by operation of law) or other disposition of any Shares (unless the transferee agrees
to be bound by this Agreement) or (d) take any action that would have the effect of preventing or disabling the Company Member
from performing its obligations hereunder.
3. Waiver
of Anti-Dilution Provision. Each Founder hereby waives (for itself, for its successors, heirs and assigns), to the fullest
extent permitted by law and the amended and restated certificate of incorporation of NAC, dated January 9, 2018 (as it may be
amended from time to time, the “Certificate of Incorporation”), the provisions of Section 4.3(b)(ii) of the
Certificate of Incorporation to have the shares of NAC Class B Common Stock convert to shares of NAC Class A Common Stock at a
ratio of greater than one-for-one in connection with the issuance of any Equity Interest. The waiver specified in this Section
3 shall be applicable only in connection with the transactions contemplated by the BCA and this Agreement (and any Equity
Interests issued in connection with the transactions contemplated by the BCA and this Agreement) and shall be void and of no force
and effect if the BCA shall be terminated for any reason.
4. Amendment
of the Founder Shares Lock-up Period. Each of the Founders (including Nebula Holdings, LLC, the “Sponsor”),
NAC and the Company hereby agree that the Letter Agreement, dated January 9, 2018, by and among NAC and the Founders (the “Letter
Agreement”), is hereby amended as specified on Exhibit B, with such amendment to become effective as of the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by the BCA (and not before). The amendment specified in this Section 4 shall be applicable
only in connection with the transactions contemplated by the BCA and this Section 4 shall be void and of no force and effect
if the BCA shall be terminated for any reason.
5. Earn-Out
Consideration. The Sponsor, the Company and NAC hereby agree that following the Closing, in addition to the consideration
to be received pursuant to the BCA, ParentCo shall be required to issue to the Sponsor additional ParentCo Common Shares as follows:
(a)
Six Hundred Twenty Five Thousand (625,000) ParentCo Common Shares, in the aggregate, if any time prior to or as of the second
anniversary of the Closing the VWAP is greater than or equal to Twelve Dollars ($12.00) over any twenty (20) trading days within
any thirty (30) trading day period (the “First Earn-Out Target”) (such 625,000 ParentCo Common Shares, the
“First Level Earn-Out Consideration”).
(b)
Six Hundred Twenty Five Thousand (625,000) ParentCo Common Shares, in the aggregate, if any time prior to or as of the second
anniversary of the Closing the VWAP is greater than or equal to Fourteen Dollars ($14.00) over any twenty (20) trading days within
any thirty (30) trading day period (the “Second Earn-Out Target”, and, together with the First Earn-Out Target,
the “Earn-Out Targets”) (such 625,000 ParentCo Common Shares, the “Second Level Earn-Out Consideration”
and together with the First Level Earn-Out Consideration, the “Earn-Out Consideration”). For the avoidance
of doubt, the maximum amount of Earn-Out Consideration is 1,250,000 ParentCo Common Shares, in the aggregate.
(c)
If any of the Earn-Out Targets set forth in Section 5(a) and (b) shall have been achieved, within five (5) Business
Days following the achievement of the applicable Earn-Out Target, ParentCo shall issue the applicable Earn-Out Consideration to
the Sponsor.
(d)
If a Change of Control of ParentCo occurs prior to the second anniversary of the Closing, any portion of the applicable Earn-Out
Consideration to that is issuable pursuant to Section 5(a) and (b) that remains unissued as of immediately prior
to the consummation of such Change of Control shall immediately vest and the Sponsor shall be entitled to receive such applicable
Earn-Out Consideration prior to the consummation of such Change of Control.
(e)
The Earn-Out Consideration and the Earn-Out Targets shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split,
reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into ParentCo Common Shares),
reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to ParentCo
Common Shares, occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the time any such Earn-Out Consideration is delivered to Sponsor,
if any.
6. Contingent
Liabilities. The Sponsor hereby agrees that to the extent the NAC Expenses shall exceed an amount equal to (i) $25,000,000
plus (ii) the NAC Cash (collectively, the “NAC Expense Cap”), then, the Sponsor shall, on the Closing
Date, in its sole option, either (x) pay any such amount in excess of the NAC Expense Cap to NAC in cash, by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account designated by NAC, or (y) forfeit to NAC (for no consideration) such number of shares
of NAC Class B Common Stock (valued at $10.00 per share of NAC Class B Common Stock) held by the Sponsor that would, in the aggregate,
have a value equal to such amount in excess of the NAC Expense Cap; provided, that if Sponsor shall elect to forfeit shares
of NAC Class B Common Stock and the number of shares of NAC Class B Common Stock available for forfeiture pursuant to this Section
6 shall be insufficient to satisfy the Sponsor’s obligations under this Section 6, then Sponsor shall, on the
Closing Date, satisfy any such additional in cash on the Closing Date.
7. Forfeiture
of NAC Warrants. In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the BCA, each Founder hereby agrees,
that immediately prior to the First Effective Time, it, she or he shall forfeit and surrender, and/or cause the forfeiture and
surrender, to NAC, for no consideration, of such number of NAC Warrants as is set forth opposite such Founder’s name on
Exhibit A hereto. Each Founder hereby agrees to take, and authorizes NAC to take, such actions as shall be necessary to
evidence such surrender and forfeiture of such NAC Warrants as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time. The obligations
specified in this Section 7 shall be applicable only in connection with the transactions contemplated by the BCA and this
Agreement and shall be void and of no force and effect if the BCA shall be terminated for any reason.
8. Representations
and Warranties. Each Founder, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company as follows:
(a)
The execution, delivery and performance by such Founder of this Agreement and the consummation by such Founder of the transactions
contemplated hereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any Law or Order applicable to such Founder, (ii) require
any consent, approval or authorization of, declaration, filing or registration with, or notice to, any person or entity, (iii)
result in the creation of any Lien on any Shares (other than pursuant to this Agreement or transfer restrictions under applicable
securities laws or the Organizational Documents of such Founder) or (iv) conflict with or result in a breach of or constitute
a default under any provision of such Founder’s Organizational Documents
(b)
Such Founder owns of record and has good, valid and marketable title to the Shares set forth opposite the Founder’s name
on Exhibit A free and clear of any Lien (other than pursuant to this Agreement or transfer restrictions under applicable
securities laws or the Organizational Documents of such Founder) and has the sole power (as currently in effect) to vote and full
right, power and authority to sell, transfer and deliver such Shares, and such Founder does not own, directly or indirectly, any
other Shares.
(c)
Such Founder has the power, authority and capacity to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and that this Agreement has
been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Founder.
9. Termination.
This Agreement and the obligations of the Founders under this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the earliest of: (a) the
First Effective Time; (b) the termination of the BCA in accordance with its terms; and (c) the mutual agreement of the Company
and the Sponsor. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, no party shall have any further obligations or liabilities
under this Agreement; provided, however, such termination or expiration shall not relieve any party from liability for any willful
breach of this Agreement occurring prior to its termination.
10. Miscellaneous.
(a)
Except as otherwise provided herein or in any Transaction Document, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the transactions

for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto, and (ii) irrevocably
waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally
to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action
is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereunder may not be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts.
(h) This
Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission) in one or more
counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be
an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
(i) Without
further consideration, each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and
delivered such additional documents and instruments and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or desirable
to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(j) This
Agreement shall not be effective or binding upon any Founder until such time as the BCA is executed.

that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that
it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, as applicable,
by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Paragraph (k).

of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”).
ARTICLE
IV
CAPITAL STOCK
The total number of
shares of all classes of capital stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is [number spelled out] ([number]),
divided into (i) [number spelled out] ([number]) shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”),
and (ii) [number spelled out] ([number]) shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Stock”).
The powers (including
voting powers), if any, and the preferences and relative, participating, optional, special or other rights, if any, and the qualifications,
limitations or restrictions, if any, of each class or series of capital stock of the Corporation shall be as provided by or pursuant
to this Article IV.
A. COMMON STOCK
Subject to law and the
powers, preferences and rights, if any, of any of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding:
(a) the
holders of the Common Stock shall have the exclusive right to vote for the election of directors of the Corporation (the “Directors”
and each, a “Director”) and on all other matters requiring stockholder action, each outstanding share
of Common Stock entitling the holder thereof to one (1) vote on each matter properly submitted to the stockholders of the Corporation
for their vote; provided, however, that, except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall
not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation (or on any amendment to a certificate of designations
of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding) that alters or changes the powers, preferences, rights or other terms of one
or more series of Preferred Stock then outstanding if the holders of such affected series of Preferred Stock are entitled to vote,
either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, on such amendment pursuant to this Certificate
of Incorporation (or pursuant to any certificate of designations of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding) or pursuant
to the DGCL;
(b) dividends
may be declared and paid or set apart for payment upon the Common Stock out of any assets or funds of the Corporation legally available
for the payment of dividends, but only when and as declared by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board
of Directors”) or any authorized committee thereof; and
(c) upon
the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the assets of the Corporation available
for distribution to its stockholders shall be distributed pro rata to the holders of the Common Stock. A merger or consolidation
of the Corporation with or into another corporation or other entity, or the sale or conveyance of all or any part of the assets
of the Corporation (which shall not in fact result in the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation and the distribution
of assets to its stockholders) shall not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation within the
meaning of this Article IV, Section 3(c).
B. PREFERRED STOCK
The Board of Directors
or any authorized committee thereof is hereby expressly authorized, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to provide from time

Stock, and, with respect to each such series, to fix the number of shares constituting such series and the designation of such
series, the powers (including voting powers), if any, of the shares of such series and the preferences and relative, participating,
optional, special or other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, if any, of the shares of such series.
Except as otherwise provided by any certificate of designations of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding or by law, no
holder of any series of Preferred Stock, as such, shall be entitled to any voting powers in respect thereof. The designations,
powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights of each series of Preferred Stock, if any,
and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, may differ from those of any and all other series of Preferred
Stock at any time outstanding. The number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below
the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares
of capital stock generally entitled to vote irrespective of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL, without the separate vote of the
holders of the Preferred Stock as a class.
ARTICLE
V
STOCKHOLDER ACTION
1. Action
without Meeting. Except as may otherwise be provided by or pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation (or any certificate
of designations of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding) with respect to the holders of any series of Preferred Stock
then outstanding, no action that is required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation at any annual or special
meeting of stockholders of the Corporation may be effected by written consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting of stockholders.
In addition to any affirmative vote required by law or this Certificate of Incorporation (or any certificate of designations of
any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding), the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding
shares of capital stock generally entitled to vote, voting together as a single class, shall be required to amend, alter, repeal
or adopt any provision inconsistent with this Article V, Section 1.
2. Special
Meetings. Except as otherwise required by statute and subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any series of Preferred
Stock then outstanding, special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation may be called only by the Board of Directors acting
pursuant to a resolution approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors then in office, and special meetings of
stockholders may not be called by any other person or persons. Only those matters set forth in the notice of the special meeting
may be considered or acted upon at a special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation.
ARTICLE
VI

of Directors. Election of Directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation (the “Bylaws”)
shall so provide.
3. Term
of Office. The Directors, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding,
shall be classified, with respect to the term for which they severally hold office, into three classes designated as “Class
I”, “Class II” and “Class III”. The classification of the Board of Directors shall become effective
upon the effectiveness of this Certificate of Incorporation in accordance with the DGCL and, at such effective time, the existing
directors of the corporation shall be assigned to classes as follows: (a) Class I Directors – [names]; (b) Class II Directors

the Bylaws shall not be required unless mandated by this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, or other applicable law.

ARTICLE
II
DETERMINATION OF CUMULATIVE REALIZED TAX BENEFIT
2.1 Basis
Adjustments. The Parties acknowledge and agree that for all tax reporting purposes (A) the Second Merger shall be treated
as a transfer or sale, respectively, of Company Units by the Company Unit Sellers to Parent and (B) the Second Merger will give
rise to a Basis Adjustment. The Basis Adjustment with respect to a Reference Asset (or applicable portions thereof, where the
Basis Adjustment exceeds the basis adjustment under Section 732 or 743(b) of the Code) shall be recovered over the applicable
period under applicable Law. Basis Adjustments reflecting Parent’s increased share of the Non-Adjusted Tax Basis in a Reference
Asset shall be determined as of the Exchange Date and shall not be adjusted as a result of future changes to Parent’s ownership
percentage in the Company. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (x) all payments to a Company Unit Seller pursuant to this Agreement
(other than amounts treated as interest under the Code) will be treated as subsequent upward purchase price adjustments that have
the effect of creating additional Basis Adjustments in respect of the Company Units previously held by such Beneficiary in the
year of payment and (y) as a result, such additional Basis Adjustments in respect of such Company Units will be incorporated into
the current year calculation and into future year calculations, as appropriate under applicable law.
2.2 The
Company Section 754 Election. Parent will ensure that, on and after the date hereof, the Company and each of its direct and
indirect Subsidiaries (that is owned through a chain of pass-through entities) that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal
income tax purposes will have in effect an election under Section 754 of the Code (and under any similar provisions of applicable
U.S. state or local law) for each applicable Taxable Year, but only to the extent that the Parent has the authority to cause such
Subsidiary to make such election under the applicable agreement for such Subsidiary.
2.3 Basis
Schedule. Within ninety (90) calendar days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Tax Return of Parent for each relevant
Taxable Year, Parent shall deliver to the Beneficiary Representative, for the benefit of each Beneficiary, a schedule (the “Basis
Schedule”) that shows, in reasonable detail as necessary in order to understand the calculations performed under this
Agreement: (a) the Non-Adjusted Tax Basis of the Reference Assets as of the Exchange Date; (b) the Basis Adjustments with respect
to the Reference Assets as a result of the Second Merger; (c) the period (or periods) over which the Reference Assets are amortizable
and/or depreciable; and (d) the period (or periods) over which each Basis Adjustment described in clause (b) is amortizable and/or
depreciable. The Basis Schedule will become final and binding on the Parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section
2.6(a) and may be amended by the Parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.6(b).
2.4 Inherited
Tax Attributes.
(a) Consequences
of the Blocker Contribution. The parties hereto further acknowledge that the Blocker may have certain tax attributes at the
time of the Blocker Contribution to which Parent could inherit in the Blocker Contribution under the Code or similar provisions
of U.S. federal, state or local and non-U.S. tax law arising from basis adjustments pursuant to Section 743 of the Code and the
regulations thereunder. For this purpose, the term “Inherited Tax Attributes” with respect to the Blocker shall
refer to the items of loss or deduction that will arise to the Blocker or its successor as a result of certain transactions that
occurred prior to the Blocker Contribution which increased the adjusted basis of property of the Company (or its predecessor)
with respect to the Blocker (or its predecessor) pursuant to Sections 743(b), 755, 732, or 1012 of the Code; provided that such
items will not constitute an Inherited Tax Attribute until such time as such items are available to be claimed as a loss or deduction
for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The parties further acknowledge that, in the event that the Blocker Contribution is effected,
the Parent’s ability to utilize an Inherited Tax Attribute to offset its taxable income or to reduce its Tax payments may
be limited under Sections 382, 383 and 384 of the Code or similar provisions of U.S. federal, state or local and non-U.S. tax
law (the “Attribute Limitations”).
(b) Inherited
Tax Attribute Schedule Generally. Within 90 calendar days after filing its U.S. federal income Tax Return for the year in
which the Blocker Contribution occurred, Parent shall deliver to the Blocker Holder, a schedule (each, an “Inherited
Tax Attribute Schedule”) that shows, in reasonable detail, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) the amount of each
Inherited Tax Attribute with respect to the Blocker, separately stated to the extent relevant, (ii) the amount of each Attribute
Limitation for the Blocker Holder, if any, separately stated to the extent relevant, and (iii) the amount of any “net unrealized
built-in gain” or “net unrealized built-in loss” as defined in Section 382(h)(3) of the Code for the Blocker.
At the time Parent delivers the Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule to the Blocker Holder, it shall (x) deliver to the Blocker Holder
supporting schedules and work papers, as determined by the Parent or requested by the Blocker Holder, that provide a reasonable
level of detail regarding the data and calculations that were relevant for purposes of preparing the Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule
and a letter from the Advisory Firm supporting such Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule and (y) allow the Blocker Holder reasonable
access to the appropriate representatives at Parent, the Company, and the Advisory Firm in connection with its review of such
schedule. Each Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule shall become final and binding on the parties unless the Blocker Holder, within
thirty (30) calendar days after receiving its respective Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule, provides Parent with notice of a material
objection to such Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule made in good faith and in reasonable detail. If Parent and the Blocker Holder,
negotiating in good faith, are unable to successfully resolve the issues raised in such notice within sixty (60) calendar days
after such notice was delivered to Parent, Parent and the Blocker Holder shall employ the Reconciliation Procedures.
(c) Amendments
to Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule. Each Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule may be amended from time to time by Parent (i)
in connection with a Determination, (ii) to correct inaccuracies to the original Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule identified after
the date of the Blocker Contribution as a result of a mistake or the receipt of additional information or (iii) to comply with
the expert’s determination under the Reconciliation Procedures. At the time Parent delivers such amended Inherited Tax Attribute
Schedule to the Blocker Holder, it shall (x) deliver to the Blocker Holder schedules and work papers providing reasonable detail
regarding the preparation of the relevant amended Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule and a letter from the Advisory Firm supporting
such amended Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule and (y) allow the Blocker Holder reasonable access to the appropriate representatives
at Parent, the Company, and the Advisory Firm in connection with its review of such schedule. Parent shall provide an Amended
Schedule to the Blocker Holder within sixty (60) calendar days of the occurrence of an event referenced in clauses (i) through
(iii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.4(c). Each amended Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule shall become final and binding
on the parties unless the Blocker Holder, within thirty (30) calendar days after receiving such amended Inherited Tax Attribute
Schedule, provide Parent with notice of a material objection to such amended Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule made in good faith
and in reasonable detail. If Parent and the Blocker Holder, negotiating in good faith, are unable to successfully resolve the
issues raised in such notice within thirty (30) calendar days after such notice was delivered to Parent, Parent and the Blocker
Holder shall employ the Reconciliation Procedures.
2.5 Tax
Benefit Schedule.
(a) Tax
Benefit Schedule. Within ninety (90) calendar days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Tax Return of Parent for any
Taxable Year in which there is a Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment, Parent shall provide to the Beneficiary Representative
and the Blocker Holder a schedule showing, in reasonable detail, the calculation of the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment
for such Taxable Year (a “Tax Benefit Schedule”) with respect to each Beneficiary and the Blocker Holder. The
Tax Benefit Schedules will become final and binding on the Parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.6(a),
and may be amended by the Parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.6(b).
(b) Applicable
Principles. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for each Taxable
Year is intended to measure the decrease or increase in the Actual Tax Liability of Parent for such Taxable Year attributable
to the Basis Adjustments, Imputed Interest and Extension Rate Interest, and the Inherited Tax Attributes as determined using a
“with and without” methodology described in Section 2.6(a). For the avoidance of doubt, the actual Covered
Tax liability will take into account the deduction of the portion of the Tax Benefit Payment that must be accounted for as Imputed
Interest under the Code based upon the characterization of the Tax Benefit Payment as additional consideration payable by the
Company for the Company Units acquired in the Second Merger, or payable by Parent for the assets acquired pursuant to the Blocker
Contribution, as the case may be. Carryovers or carrybacks of any tax item attributable to any Basis Adjustment, Imputed Interest
or Extension Rate Interest or the Inherited Tax Attributes shall be considered to be subject to the rules of the Code and the
Treasury Regulations or the appropriate provisions of U.S. state and local and non-U.S. tax law, as applicable, governing the
use, limitation and expiration of carryovers or carrybacks of the relevant type. If a carryover or carryback of any Covered Tax
item includes a portion that is attributable to the Basis Adjustment, Imputed Interest, or the Inherited Tax Attributes and another
portion that is not, such portions shall be considered to be used in the order determined using such “with and without”
methodology. The Parties agree that all Tax Benefit Payments attributable to the Second Merger will be treated as subsequent upward
purchase price adjustments that give rise to further Basis Adjustments for Parent beginning in the Taxable Year of payment, and
as a result, such additional Basis Adjustments will be incorporated into such Taxable Year continuing for future Taxable Years
until any incremental Basis Adjustment benefits with respect to a Tax Benefit Payment equals a de minimis amount. For the avoidance
of doubt, the treatment of Tax Benefit Payments pursuant to the preceding sentence shall not apply to Tax Benefit Payments attributable
to the Blocker Holder.
2.6 Procedures;
Amendments.
(a) Procedures.
Each time Parent delivers an applicable Schedule to the Beneficiary Representative or the Blocker Holder under this Agreement,
including any Amended Schedule delivered pursuant to Section 2.6(b), but excluding any Early Termination Schedule or amended
Early Termination Schedule delivered pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 4.2, Parent shall also: (x) deliver
supporting schedules and work papers, as determined by Parent or as reasonably requested by the Beneficiary Representative or
the Blocker Holder, that provide a reasonable level of detail regarding the data and calculations that were relevant for purposes
of preparing the Schedule; (y) deliver a Parent Letter supporting such Schedule; and (z) allow the Beneficiary Representative
and the Blocker Holder and their respective advisors to have reasonable access at no cost to the appropriate representatives,
as determined by Parent or as reasonably requested by the Beneficiary Representative or the Blocker Holder, at Parent and the
Advisory Firm in connection with a review of such Schedule. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, Parent
shall ensure that any Tax Benefit Schedule that is delivered to the Beneficiary Representative or the Blocker Holder, along with
any supporting schedules and work papers, provides a reasonably detailed presentation of the calculation of the Actual Tax Liability
of Parent for the relevant Taxable Year (the “with” calculation) and the Hypothetical Tax Liability of Parent for
such Taxable Year (the “without” calculation), and identifies any material assumptions or operating procedures or
principles that were used for purposes of such calculations. An applicable Schedule or amendment thereto shall become final and
binding on the Parties thirty (30) calendar days from the date on which the Beneficiary Representative and the Blocker Holder
first received the applicable Schedule or amendment thereto unless:
(i) the
Beneficiary Representative or the Blocker Holder within thirty (30) calendar days after receiving the applicable Schedule or amendment
thereto, provides Parent with (A) written notice of a material objection to such Schedule that is made in good faith and in reasonable
detail (an “Objection Notice”); or
(ii) the
Beneficiary Representative and each of the Blocker Holder provide a written waiver of its right to deliver an Objection Notice
within the time period described in clause (i) above, in which case such Schedule or amendment thereto becomes binding on the
date the waivers from the Beneficiary Representative and the Blocker Holder are received by Parent.
In
the event that Beneficiary Representative or the Blocker Holder timely delivers an Objection Notice pursuant to clause (i) above,
and if the Parties, for any reason, are unable to successfully resolve the issues raised in the Objection Notice within thirty
(30) calendar days after receipt by Parent of the Objection Notice, Parent and the Beneficiary Representative and the Blocker
Holder shall employ the reconciliation procedures as described in Section 7.10 of this Agreement (the “Reconciliation
Procedures”).
(b) Amended
Schedule. The applicable Schedule for any Taxable Year may be amended from time to time by Parent: (i) in connection with
a Determination affecting such Schedule; (ii) to correct inaccuracies in the Schedule identified as a result of a mistake or the
receipt of additional factual information relating to a Taxable Year after the date the Schedule was originally provided to the
Beneficiary Representative and the Blocker Holder; (iii) to comply with an Expert’s determination under the Reconciliation
Procedures applicable to this Agreement; (iv) to reflect a change in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such
Taxable Year attributable to a carryback or carryforward of a loss or other Tax item to such Taxable Year; (v) to reflect a change
in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to an amended Tax Return filed for such
Taxable Year; or (vi) to adjust a Basis Schedule to take into account any Tax Benefit Payments made pursuant to this Agreement
(any such Schedule, an “Amended Schedule”). Parent shall provide an Amended Schedule to the Beneficiary Representative
and the Blocker Holder within sixty (60) calendar days of the occurrence of an event referenced in clauses (i) through (vi) of
the immediately preceding sentence, and any such Amended Schedule shall be subject to approval procedures similar to those described
in Section 2.6(a). For the avoidance of doubt, if a Schedule is amended after such Schedule becomes final pursuant to Section
2.6(a), the Amended Schedule shall not be taken into account in calculating any Tax Benefit Payment in the Taxable Year to
which such amendment relates but instead shall be taken into account in calculating the Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit for
the Taxable Year in which the amendment is executed.
2.7 Significant
Beneficiaries. For the purposes of Sections 2.3, 2.5 and 2.6 of this Agreement, a Significant Beneficiary shall have the same
procedural rights and obligations as the Beneficiary Representative and Parent shall have the same procedural duties and obligations
to a Significant Beneficiary as it does to the Beneficiary Representative.
ARTICLE
III
TAX BENEFIT PAYMENTS
3.1 Payments.
(a) Timing
of Payments. Subject to Sections 3.2 and 3.3, within five (5) Business Days following the date on which each
(i) Tax Benefit Schedule that is required to be delivered by Parent to the Beneficiaries pursuant to Section 2.5(a) of
this Agreement becomes final in accordance with Section 2.6(a) of this Agreement and (ii) Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule
that is required to be delivered by Parent to the Blocker Holder pursuant to Section 2.4(b) and Section 2.4(c) of this Agreement
becomes final in accordance with Section 2.4(b) or Section 2.4(c) of this Agreement (such date, a “Final Payment Date”
in respect of any applicable Tax Benefit Payment), unless required pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 3.1(a),
Parent shall pay to each Beneficiary the Tax Benefit Payment as determined pursuant to Section 3.1(b). Each Tax Benefit
Payment made pursuant to this Section 3.1(a) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account
previously designated by such Beneficiary or as otherwise agreed by Parent and such Beneficiary. For the avoidance of doubt, neither
the Beneficiaries nor the Blocker Holder shall be required under any circumstances to return any portion of any Tax Benefit Payment
previously paid by Parent to the Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder, as the case may be (including any portion of any Early Termination
Payment).
(b) Amount
of Payments. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Tax Benefit Payment” with respect to each Beneficiary means
an amount, not less than zero, equal to the sum of: (A) the Net Tax Benefit that is Allocable to such Beneficiary and (B) the
Actual Interest Amount in respect of such portion of Net Tax Benefit.
(i) Allocable.
The portion of any Net Tax Benefit of Parent that is “Allocable” to any Beneficiary shall be determined by reference
to the assets from which arise the depreciation, amortization or other similar deductions for recovery of cost or basis (“Depreciation”)
and the Inherited Tax Attributes, and the Imputed Interest that produce the Realized Tax Benefit, under the following principles:
(A)
Any Realized Tax Benefit arising from a deduction to Parent with respect to a Taxable Year for Depreciation arising in respect
of a Basis Adjustment to a Reference Asset is Allocable to each Beneficiary (including the Blocker Holder) on a pro rata basis
in proportion to the Beneficiaries’ Attributable Company Units, in accordance with Exhibit A.
(B)
Any Realized Tax Benefit arising from the use of an Inherited Tax Attribute of the Blocker is 100% Allocable to the Blocker Holder.
(C)
Any Realized Tax Benefit arising from a deduction to Parent with respect to a Taxable Year in respect of Imputed Interest is Allocable
to a Beneficiary that is required to include the Imputed Interest in income (without regard to whether such Beneficiary is actually
subject to tax thereon).
(ii) Net
Tax Benefit. The “Net Tax Benefit” for a Taxable Year equals the amount of the excess, if any, of (x) 85%
of the Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit Allocable to the Beneficiary as of the end of such Taxable Year over (y) the aggregate
amount of all Tax Benefit Payments previously made to such Beneficiary under this Section 3.1 (excluding payments attributable
to Actual Interest Amounts). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit as of the end of any Taxable
Year is less than the aggregate amount of all Tax Benefit Payments previously made to a Beneficiary, such Beneficiary shall not
be required to return any portion of any Tax Benefit Payment previously made by Parent to such Beneficiary.
(iii) Imputed
Interest. The principles of Sections 1272, 1274, or 483 of the Code, as applicable, and the principles of any similar provision
of U.S. state and local law, will apply to cause a portion of any Net Tax Benefit payable by Parent to a Beneficiary under this
Agreement to be treated as imputed interest (“Imputed Interest”). For the avoidance of doubt, the deduction
for the amount of Imputed Interest as determined with respect to any Net Tax Benefit payable by Parent to a Beneficiary shall
be excluded in determining the Hypothetical Tax Liability of Parent for purposes of calculating Realized Tax Benefits and Realized
Tax Detriments pursuant to this Agreement.
(iv) Default
Rate Interest. In the event that Parent does not make timely payment of all or any portion of a Tax Benefit Payment to a Beneficiary
on or before a Final Payment Date as determined pursuant to Section 3.1(a), the amount of “Default Rate Interest”
calculated in respect of the Net Tax Benefit (including previously accrued Imputed Interest and Extension Rate Interest) for a
Taxable Year will equal interest calculated at the Default Rate from a Final Payment Date for a Tax Benefit Payment as determined
pursuant to Section 3.1(a) until the date on which Parent makes such Tax Benefit Payment to such Beneficiary. For the avoidance
of doubt, the amount of any Default Rate Interest as determined with respect to any Net Tax Benefit payable by Parent to a Beneficiary
shall be excluded in the Hypothetical Tax Liability of Parent for purposes of calculating Realized Tax Benefits and Realized Tax
Detriments pursuant to this Agreement.
(v) Value.
Parent and the Beneficiaries hereby acknowledge and agree that, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the date of the Second
Merger, the aggregate value of the Tax Benefit Payments cannot be reasonably ascertained for U.S. federal income or other applicable
tax purposes.
(c) Interest.
The provisions of Section 3.1(b) are intended to operate so that interest will effectively accrue in respect of the Net
Tax Benefit for any Taxable Year as follows:
(i) first,
at the applicable rate used to determine the amount of Imputed Interest under the Code (from the Exchange Date until the due date
(without extensions) for filing the U.S. federal income Tax Return of Parent for such Taxable Year);
(ii) second,
at the Agreed Rate in respect of any Extension Rate Interest (from the due date (without extensions) for filing the U.S. federal
income Tax Return of Parent for such Taxable Year until a Final Payment Date for a Tax Benefit Payment as determined pursuant
to Section 3.1(a)); and
(iii) third,
at the Default Rate in respect of any Default Rate Interest (from a Final Payment Date for a Tax Benefit Payment as determined
pursuant to Section 3.1(a) until the date on which Parent makes the relevant Tax Benefit Payment to a Beneficiary).
3.2 No
Duplicative Payments. It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement will not result in the duplicative payment of any
amount (including interest) that may be required under this Agreement, and the provisions of this Agreement shall be consistently
interpreted and applied in accordance with that intent. For purposes of this Agreement, and also for the avoidance of doubt, no
Tax Benefit Payment shall be calculated or made in respect of any estimated tax payments, including any estimated U.S. federal
income tax payments.
3.3 Pro-Ration
of Payments as Between the Beneficiaries and the Blocker Holder; Coordination of Benefits.
(a) Insufficient
Taxable Income. Notwithstanding anything in Section 3.1(b) to the contrary, if the aggregate potential Covered Tax
benefit of Parent as calculated with respect to the Basis Adjustments, the Inherited Tax Attributes, and Imputed Interest (in
each case, without regard to the Taxable Year of origination) permitted to be utilized in a particular Taxable Year is limited
in such Taxable Year because Parent does not have sufficient actual taxable income or otherwise pursuant to applicable law, then
the available Covered Tax benefit for Parent shall be allocated among the Beneficiaries (including the Blocker Holder) in proportion
to the respective Tax Benefit Payment that would have been payable if Parent had in fact had sufficient taxable income so that
there had been no such limitation.
(b) Pro-Rata
Payments. After taking into account Section 3.3(a), if for any reason Parent does not fully satisfy its payment obligations
to make all Tax Benefit Payments due under this Agreement in respect of a particular Taxable Year, then (i) Parent shall pay the
same proportion of each Tax Benefit Payment due to each Beneficiary in respect of such Taxable Year, without favoring one obligation
over the other, and (ii) no Tax Benefit Payment shall be made in respect of any Taxable Year until all Tax Benefit Payments in
respect of prior Taxable Years have been made in full.
(c) Late
Payments. If for any reason Parent is not able to timely and fully satisfy its payment obligations under this Agreement in
respect of a particular Taxable Year, then Default Rate Interest will begin to accrue pursuant to Section 5.2.
(d) Excess
Payments. To the extent Parent makes a payment to a Beneficiary in respect of a particular Taxable Year under Section 3.1(a)
of this Agreement (taking into account Section 3.3(a) and (b)) in an amount in excess of the amount of such payment that should
have been made to such Beneficiary in respect of such Taxable Year, then (i) such Beneficiary shall not receive further payments
under Section 3.1(a) until such Beneficiary has foregone an amount of payments equal to such excess and (ii) Parent will pay the
amount of such Beneficiary’s foregone payments to the other Persons to whom a payment is due under this Agreement in a manner
such that each such Person to whom a payment is due under this Agreement, to the maximum extent possible, receives aggregate payments
under Section 3.1(a) (taking into account Section 3.3(a) and (b)) in the amount it would have received if there had been no excess
payment to such Beneficiary.
ARTICLE
IV
TERMINATION
4.1 Termination.
Unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 4.2, this Agreement will terminate when there is no further potential for
a Tax Benefit Payment pursuant to this Agreement. Tax Benefit Payments under this Agreement are not conditioned on any Beneficiary
(including the Blocker Holder) retaining an interest in Parent or any successor thereto.
4.2 Early
Termination.
(a) Parent’s
Early Termination Right. With the written approval of a majority of the Independent Directors, Parent may completely terminate
this Agreement, as and to the extent provided herein, with respect to all amounts payable to the Beneficiaries or the Blocker
Holder pursuant to this Agreement by paying to the Beneficiaries and the Blocker Holder the Early Termination Payment; provided
that Early Termination Payments may be made pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) only if made to all Beneficiaries and the
Blocker Holder that are entitled to such a payment simultaneously; provided further, that Parent may withdraw any
notice to execute its termination rights under this Section 4.2(a) prior to the time at which any Early Termination Payment
has been paid. Upon Parent’s payment of the Early Termination Payment, Parent shall not have any further payment obligations
under this Agreement, other than with respect to any: (i) prior Tax Benefit Payments that are due and payable under this Agreement
but that still remain unpaid as of the date of the Early Termination Notice; and (ii) current Tax Benefit Payment due for the
Taxable Year ending on or including the date of the Early Termination Notice (except to the extent that the amount described in
clause (ii) is included in the calculation of the Early Termination Payment).
(b) Acceleration
Upon Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, all obligations hereunder shall be accelerated and such obligations
shall be calculated pursuant to this Article IV as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the closing date
of the Change of Control and utilizing the Valuation Assumptions by substituting the phrase “the closing date of a Change
of Control” in each place where the phrase “Early Termination Effective Date” appears. Such obligations shall
include, but not be limited to, (1) the Early Termination Payment calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered
on the closing date of the Change of Control, (2) any Tax Benefit Payments agreed to by Parent and the Beneficiaries as due and
payable but unpaid as of the Early Termination Notice and (3) any Tax Benefit Payments due for any Taxable Year ending prior to,
with or including the closing date of a Change of Control (except to the extent that any amounts described in clauses (2) or (3)
are included in the Early Termination Payment). For the avoidance of doubt, Sections 4.3 and 4.4 shall apply to
a Change of Control, mutadis mutandi.
(c) Acceleration
Upon Breach of Agreement. In the event that Parent materially breaches any of its material obligations under this Agreement,
whether as a result of failure to make any payment due pursuant to this Agreement within thirty days of receiving written notice
from the Beneficiary Representative or the Blocker Holder of Parent’s such failure to timely pay, failure to honor any other material
obligation required hereunder to the extent not cured within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice from any Beneficiary
or the Blocker Holder that is materially prejudiced by such failure, or by operation of law as a result of the rejection of this
Agreement in a case commenced under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, then all obligations hereunder shall be accelerated and
become immediately due and payable upon notice of acceleration from a 10% Beneficiary or as a result of a Two-Thirds Beneficiary
Approval (provided that in the case of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other insolvency statute, such acceleration
shall be automatic without any such notice), and such obligations shall be calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been
delivered on the date of such notice of acceleration (or, in the case of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other insolvency
statute, on the date of such breach) and shall include, but not be limited to: (i) the Early Termination Payment calculated as
if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of such acceleration; (ii) any prior Tax Benefit Payments that are
due and payable under this Agreement but that still remain unpaid as of the date of such acceleration; and (iii) any current Tax
Benefit Payment due for the Taxable Year ending with or including the date of such acceleration. For purposes of this Section
4.2(c), and subject to the following sentence, the Parties agree that the failure to make any payment due pursuant to this
Agreement within thirty days of receiving written notice from the Beneficiary Representative or the Blocker Holder of Parent’s
such failure to timely pay shall be deemed to be a material breach of a material obligation under this Agreement for all purposes
of this Agreement, and that it will not be considered to be a material breach of a material obligation under this Agreement to
make a payment due pursuant to this Agreement within thirty days of receiving such written notice. Notwithstanding anything in
this Agreement to the contrary, it shall not be a material breach of a material obligation of this Agreement if Parent fails to
make any Tax Benefit Payment to the extent that Parent has insufficient funds, or cannot take commercially reasonable actions
to obtain sufficient funds, to make such payment; provided that the interest provisions of Section 5.2 shall apply
to such late payment (unless Parent does not have sufficient funds to make such payment as a result of limitations imposed by
any Senior Obligations, in which case Section 5.2 shall apply, but the Default Rate shall be replaced by the Agreed Rate).
4.3 Early
Termination Notice. If Parent chooses to exercise its right of early termination under Section 4.2 above, Parent shall
deliver to the Beneficiaries and the Blocker Holder a notice of Parent’s decision to exercise such right (an “Early
Termination Notice”) and a schedule (the “Early Termination Schedule”) showing in reasonable detail
the calculation of the Early Termination Payment. Parent shall also (x) deliver supporting schedules and work papers, as determined
by Parent or as reasonably requested by a Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder, that provide a reasonable level of detail regarding
the data and calculations that were relevant for purposes of preparing the Early Termination Schedule; (y) deliver a Parent Letter
supporting such Early Termination Schedule; and (z) allow the Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder and their advisors to have reasonable
access to the appropriate representatives, as determined by Parent or as reasonably requested by the Beneficiaries or the Blocker
Holder, at Parent and the Advisory Firm in connection with a review of such Early Termination Schedule. The Early Termination
Schedule shall become final and binding on each Party forty-five (45) calendar days from the first date on which the Beneficiaries
or the Blocker Holder received such Early Termination Schedule unless:
(i) a
Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder, within forty-five (45) calendar days after receiving the Early Termination Schedule, provides
Parent with (A) notice of a material objection to such Early Termination Schedule made in good faith and setting forth in reasonable
detail such Beneficiary’s or the Blocker Holder’s material objection (a “Termination Objection Notice”)
and (B) a letter from the Beneficiary Advisory Firm in support of such Termination Objection Notice; or
(ii) each
Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder provides a written waiver of such right of a Termination Objection Notice within the period
described in clause (i) above, in which case such Early Termination Schedule becomes binding on the date the waiver from all Beneficiaries
or the Blocker Holder is received by Parent.
In
the event that a Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder timely delivers a Termination Objection Notice pursuant to clause (i) above,
and if the Parties, for any reason, are unable to successfully resolve the issues raised in the Termination Objection Notice within
thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by Parent of the Termination Objection Notice, Parent and such Beneficiary or the Blocker
Holder shall employ the Reconciliation Procedures. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
the expense of preparing and obtaining the letter from the Beneficiary Advisory Firm referenced in clause (i) above shall be borne
solely by such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder and Parent shall have no liability with respect to such letter or any of the
expenses associated with its preparation and delivery. The date on which the Early Termination Schedule becomes final in accordance
with this Section 4.3 shall be the “Early Termination Reference Date.”
4.4 Payment
upon Early Termination.
(a) Timing
of Payment. Within five (5) Business Days after the Early Termination Reference Date, Parent shall pay to each Beneficiary
and the Blocker Holder an amount equal to the Early Termination Payment for such Beneficiary and the Blocker Holder. Such Early
Termination Payment shall be made by Parent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts designated
by the Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder or as otherwise agreed by Parent and the Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder.
(b) Amount
of Payment. The “Early Termination Payment” payable to a Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder pursuant to
Section 4.4(a) shall equal the present value, discounted at the Early Termination Rate as determined as of the Early Termination
Reference Date, of all Tax Benefit Payments that would be required to be paid by Parent to such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder,
beginning from the Early Termination Effective Date and using the Valuation Assumptions.

SUBORDINATION AND BREACH OF PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS
5.1 Subordination.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Tax Benefit Payment or Early Termination Payment required
to be made by Parent to the Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder under this Agreement shall rank subordinate and junior in right
of payment to any principal, interest, or other amounts due and payable in respect of any obligations owed in respect of secured
or unsecured indebtedness for borrowed money of Parent and its Subsidiaries (in all events, excluding any debt instruments between
Parent and any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) (“Senior Obligations”) and shall rank pari passu in right
of payment with all current or future unsecured obligations of Parent that are not Senior Obligations. To the extent that any
payment under this Agreement is not permitted to be made at the time payment is due as a result of this Section 5.1 and
the terms of the agreements governing Senior Obligations, such payment obligation nevertheless shall accrue for the benefit of
the Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder and Parent shall make such payments at the first opportunity that such payments are permitted
to be made in accordance with the terms of the Senior Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the above, the
determination of whether it is a breach of this Agreement if Parent fails to make any Tax Benefit Payment when due shall be governed
by Section 4.2(c).
5.2 Late
Payments by Parent. Except as otherwise provided herein, the amount of all or any portion of any Tax Benefit Payment or Early
Termination Payment not made to the Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder when due under the terms of this Agreement, whether as
a result of Section 5.1 and the terms of the Senior Obligations or otherwise, shall be payable together with Default Rate
Interest, which shall accrue beginning on a Final Payment Date and be computed as provided in Section 3.1(b)(iv).

TAX MATTERS; CONSISTENCY; COOPERATION
6.1 Parent’s
and the Company’s Tax Matters. Except as otherwise provided herein, Parent shall have full responsibility for, and sole
discretion over, all Tax matters concerning Parent and the Company Group, including the preparation, filing or amending of any
Tax Return and defending, contesting or settling any issue pertaining to Taxes, subject to a requirement that the Parent act in
good faith in connection with its control of any matter which is reasonably expected to materially affect the Beneficiaries’
rights and obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall notify the Beneficiary Representative,
the Significant Beneficiaries and the Blocker Holder of, and keep them reasonably informed with respect to, the portion of any
tax audit of Parent or the Company, or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, the outcome of which is reasonably expected to
affect the Tax Benefit Payments payable to the Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder under this Agreement.
6.2 Consistency.
All calculations and determinations made hereunder, including any Basis Adjustments, the Schedules, and the determination of any
Realized Tax Benefits or Realized Tax Detriments, shall be made in accordance with the elections, methodologies or positions taken
by Parent and the Company on their respective Tax Returns. Each Beneficiary and the Blocker Holder shall prepare its Tax Returns
in a manner that is consistent with the terms of this Agreement, and any related calculations or determinations that are made
hereunder, including the terms of Section 2.1 of this Agreement and the Schedules provided to the Beneficiaries and the
Blocker Holder under this Agreement unless otherwise required by applicable Law. In the event that an Advisory Firm is replaced
with another Advisory Firm acceptable to the Audit Committee, such replacement Advisory Firm shall perform its services under
this Agreement using procedures and methodologies consistent with the previous Advisory Firm, unless otherwise required by law
or unless Parent, the Beneficiary Representative, the Significant Beneficiaries and the Blocker Holder agree to the use of other
procedures and methodologies.
6.3 Cooperation.
Each Beneficiary and the Blocker Holder shall (a) furnish to Parent in a timely manner such information, documents and other materials
as Parent may reasonably request for purposes of making any determination or computation necessary or appropriate under this Agreement,
preparing any Tax Return or contesting or defending any audit, examination or controversy with any Taxing Authority, (b) make
itself available to Parent and its representatives to provide explanations of documents and materials and such other information
as Parent or its representatives may reasonably request in connection with any of the matters described in clause (a) above, and
(c) reasonably cooperate in connection with any such matter, and Parent shall reimburse any Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder
for any reasonable third-party costs and expenses incurred by such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder pursuant to this Section
6.3.
6.4 Pre-Transactions
Tax Records. Parent and its advisors may rely on all Tax Returns of the Company that were prepared and filed prior to completion
of the Reorganization Transactions and may assume in good faith that all such Tax Returns are correct, complete and accurate unless
otherwise established by a Determination.
6.5 Tax
Treatment of Beneficiary Rights. The Parties acknowledge and hereby agree to treat for all tax reporting purposes any payments
made to a Beneficiary under this Agreement: (i) such payments arising from the Second Merger or the Blocker Contribution, as money
received within the meaning of Section 351(b)(1) of the Code, except with respect to Imputed Interest or payments that are Actual
Interest Amounts. The Parties shall for all tax reporting purposes treat such payments consistently with this Section 6.5 except
upon a contrary final determination by an applicable taxing authority.

being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement
by facsimile transmission or electronic mail shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.
7.3 Entire
Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements
and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and nothing
in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any
nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
7.4 Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Delaware, without regard
to the conflicts of laws principles thereof that would mandate the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.
7.5 Severability.
If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy,
all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or
legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such
determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties hereto shall negotiate
in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable
manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
7.6 Successors;
Assignment; Amendments; Waivers.
(a) Assignment.
Each Beneficiary and the Blocker Holder may assign, sell, pledge, or otherwise alienate or transfer any interest in this Agreement
in whole or in part, including the right to receive any Tax Benefit Payments under this Agreement, to any Person without the prior
written consent of Parent, unless such transfer would be prohibited by law; provided, however, such Person shall execute
and deliver a Joinder agreeing to succeed to the applicable portion of such Beneficiary’s or the Blocker Holder’s
interest in this Agreement and to become a Party for all purposes of this Agreement (the “Joinder Requirement”).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, an assignee of only rights to receive a Tax Benefit Payment in connection
with the Second Merger has no rights under this Agreement other than to enforce it right to receive a Tax Benefit Payment pursuant
to this Agreement.
(b) Amendments.
No provision of this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is approved in writing by Parent and by the Beneficiaries
or the Blocker Holder who would be entitled to receive at least two-thirds of the Early Termination Payments payable to all Beneficiaries
and the Blocker Holder hereunder if the Company had exercised its right of early termination under Section 4.2; provided that
no such amendment shall be effective if such amendment will have a materially disproportionate effect on the payments certain
Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder may receive under this Agreement unless at least two-thirds of such Beneficiaries or the Blocker
Holder materially disproportionately effected (with such two-thirds threshold being measured by the entitlement to Early Termination
Payments as set forth in the preceding portion of this sentence) consent in writing to such amendment. No provision of this Agreement
may be waived unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective.
(c) Successors.
All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable
by, the Parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives. Parent
shall require and cause any direct or indirect successor (whether by purchase, Second Merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all
or substantially all of the business or assets of Parent, by written agreement, expressly to assume and agree to perform this
Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that Parent would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.
(d) Waiver.
No failure by any Party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement, or condition of this Agreement,
or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any other
covenant, duty, agreement, or condition.
7.7 Titles
and Subtitles. The headings and titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference
only and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement.
7.8 Resolution
of Disputes.
(a) Except
for Reconciliation Disputes subject to Section 7.10, any and all disputes which cannot be settled after substantial good-faith
negotiation, including any ancillary claims of any Party, arising out of, relating to or in connection with the validity, negotiation,
execution, interpretation, performance or non-performance of this Agreement (including the validity, scope and enforceability
of this arbitration provision) (each a “Dispute”) shall be finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with
the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration by a panel of three
arbitrators (the “Arbitrators”), of which Parent shall designate one Arbitrator and the Beneficiaries or the
Blocker Holder party to such Dispute shall designate one Arbitrator in accordance with the “screened” appointment
procedure provided in Resolution Rule 5.4. The arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§
1 et seq., and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof.
The place of the arbitration shall be Wilmington, Delaware. The Arbitrators are not empowered to award damages in excess of compensatory
damages, and each Party hereby irrevocably waives any right to recover punitive, exemplary or similar damages with respect to
any Dispute.
(b) Notwithstanding
the provisions of paragraph (a), any Party may bring an action or special proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction for
the purpose of compelling another Party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an arbitration hereunder,
and/or enforcing an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this paragraph (b), each Party (i) expressly consents to the application
of paragraph (c) of this Section 7.8 to any such action or proceeding, and (ii) agrees that proof shall not be required
that monetary damages for breach of the provisions of this Agreement would be difficult to calculate and that remedies at law
would be inadequate. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.8 shall not apply to Reconciliation Disputes to be settled
in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.10.
(c) Each
Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery
Court of the State of Delaware or, if such Court declines jurisdiction, the courts of the State of Delaware sitting in Wilmington,
Delaware, and of the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware sitting in Wilmington, Delaware, and any appellate court
from any thereof, in any action or proceeding brought in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.8(b) or any judicial
proceeding ancillary to an arbitration or contemplated arbitration (including any proceeding to compel arbitration to obtain temporary
or preliminary judicial relief in aid of arbitration or to confirm an arbitration award) arising out of or relating to this Agreement
or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the Parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that
all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Delaware State court or, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, in such U.S. District Court. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or
proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided
by law.
(d) Each
Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter
have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred
to in Section 7.8(c). Each Party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient
forum to the maintenance of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court.
(e) Each
Party irrevocably consents to service of process by means of notice in the manner provided for in Section 7.1. Nothing
in this Agreement shall affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
(f) WAIVER
OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY
RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT
OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).
7.9 Removal
or Replacement of Beneficiary Representative. The Beneficiary Representative shall not be removed or replaced without the
written consent of Parent and the Two-Thirds Beneficiary Approval.
7.10 Reconciliation.
In the event that Parent and the Beneficiary Representative, a Significant Beneficiary, or the Blocker Holder are unable to resolve
a disagreement with respect to a Basis Schedule, Tax Benefit Schedule, Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule (as applicable), or with
respect to an Early Termination Schedule, within the relevant time period designated in this Agreement (a “Reconciliation
Dispute”), the Reconciliation Dispute shall be submitted for determination to a nationally recognized expert (the “Expert”)
in the particular area of disagreement mutually acceptable to both Parties. The Expert shall be a partner or principal in a nationally
recognized accounting firm, and unless Parent and the Beneficiary Representative, such Significant Beneficiary, or the Blocker
Holder agree otherwise, the Expert shall not, and the firm that employs the Expert shall not, have any material relationship with
Parent or the Beneficiary Representative, such Significant Beneficiary, or the Blocker Holder or other actual or potential conflict
of interest. If the Parties are unable to agree on an Expert within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt by the respondent(s)
of written notice of a Reconciliation Dispute, the selection of an Expert shall be treated as a Dispute subject to Section
7.8 and an arbitration panel shall pick an Expert from a nationally recognized accounting firm that does not have any material
relationship with Parent or the Beneficiary Representative, such Significant Beneficiary, or the Blocker Holder or other actual
or potential conflict of interest. The Expert shall resolve any matter relating to the Basis Schedule or an amendment thereto,
the Inherited Tax Attribute Schedule or an amendment thereto or the Early Termination Schedule or an amendment thereto within
thirty (30) calendar days and shall resolve any matter relating to a Tax Benefit Schedule or an amendment thereto within fifteen
(15) calendar days or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, in each case after the matter has been submitted to the
Expert for resolution. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the matter is not resolved before any payment that is the subject
of a disagreement would be due (in the absence of such disagreement) or any Tax Return reflecting the subject of a disagreement
is due, the undisputed amount shall be paid on the date prescribed by this Agreement and such Tax Return may be filed as prepared
by Parent, subject to adjustment or amendment upon resolution. The costs and expenses relating to the engagement of such Expert
or amending any Tax Return shall be borne by Parent except as provided in the next sentence. Parent, the Beneficiary Representative,
such Significant Beneficiary, or the Blocker Holder shall bear its own costs and expenses of such proceeding, unless (i) the Expert
adopts the Beneficiary Representative’s, such Significant Beneficiary’s, or the Blocker Holder’s position, in
which case Parent shall reimburse the Beneficiary Representative, the Significant Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder, as the case
may be, for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses in such proceeding, or (ii) the Expert adopts Parent’s
position, in which case the Beneficiary Representative, the Significant Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder, as the case may be,
shall reimburse Parent for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses in such proceeding. Any dispute as to
whether a dispute is a Reconciliation Dispute within the meaning of this Section 7.10 shall be decided by the Expert. The
Expert shall finally determine any Reconciliation Dispute and the determinations of the Expert pursuant to this Section 7.10
shall be binding on Parent, the Beneficiary Representative, the Beneficiaries, and the Blocker Holder and may be entered and
enforced in any court having competent jurisdiction.
7.11 Withholding.
Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Parent is
required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of U.S. federal, state, local or
non-U.S. tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority by Parent, such
withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the applicable Beneficiary or the
applicable Blocker Holder. Each Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder shall promptly provide Parent with any applicable tax forms
and certifications reasonably requested by Parent in connection with determining whether any such deductions and withholdings
are required under any provision of U.S. federal state, local or non-U.S. tax law. Prior to any such withholding, Parent shall
(i) promptly notify the Beneficiary Representative or the Blocker Holder, as applicable, of any anticipated withholding, (ii)
consult with the Beneficiary Representative or the Blocker Holder, as applicable, in good faith to determine whether such deduction
and withholding is required under applicable Tax Law, and (iii) cooperate with the Beneficiary Representative or the Blocker Holder,
as applicable, in good faith to minimize the amount of any applicable withholding.
7.12 Admission
of Parent into a Consolidated Group; Transfers of Corporate Assets.
(a) If
Parent becomes a member of an affiliated or consolidated group of corporations that files a consolidated income tax return pursuant
to Sections 1501, et seq. or other applicable Sections of the Code or any corresponding provisions of state, local or non-U.S.
law, then: (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall be applied with respect to the group as a whole; and (ii) Tax Benefit Payments,
Early Termination Payments and other applicable items hereunder shall be computed with reference to the consolidated taxable income
of the group as a whole.
(b) If
Parent (or any other entity that is obligated to make a Tax Benefit Payment or Early Termination Payment hereunder) or any member
of the Company Group transfers (or is deemed to transfer) one or more assets to a corporation with which Parent or any other entity
that is obligated to make a Tax Benefit Payment or Early Termination Payment hereunder does not file a consolidated tax return
pursuant to Section 1501 of the Code (or will not file such a return following a series of transactions undertaken in connection
with such transfer(s)), such entity, for purposes of calculating the amount of any Tax Benefit Payment or Early Termination Payment
due hereunder, shall be treated as having disposed of such asset in a fully taxable transaction on the date of such transfer.
The consideration deemed to be received by such entity shall be equal to the net fair market value of the transferred asset as
determined by Parent, plus (i) the amount of debt to which such asset is subject, in the case of a transfer of an encumbered asset,
or (ii) the amount of debt allocated to such asset, in the case of a transfer of a partnership interest.
7.13 Confidentiality.
Each Beneficiary and its assignees, the Beneficiary Representative and each of its assignees, and the Blocker Holder and each
of its assignees acknowledges and agrees that the information of Parent is confidential and, except in the course of performing
any duties as necessary for Parent and its Affiliates, as required by law or legal process or to enforce the terms of this Agreement,
such Person shall keep and retain in the strictest confidence and not disclose to any Person any confidential matters, acquired
pursuant to this Agreement, of Parent and its Affiliates and successors, learned by any Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder heretofore
or hereafter. This Section 7.13 shall not apply to (i) any information that has been made publicly available by Parent
or any of its Affiliates, becomes public knowledge (except as a result of an act of any Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder in violation
of this Agreement) or is generally known to the business community, (ii) the disclosure of information to the extent necessary
for a Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder to prosecute or defend claims arising under or relating to this Agreement, and (iii) the
disclosure of information to the extent necessary for a Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder to prepare and file its Tax Returns,
to respond to any inquiries regarding the same from any Taxing Authority or to prosecute or defend any action, proceeding or audit
by any Taxing Authority with respect to such Tax Returns. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Beneficiaries the
Blocker Holder and each of their respective assignees (and each employee, representative or other agent of the Beneficiaries and
the Blocker Holder or their assignees, as applicable) may disclose at their discretion to any and all Persons, without limitation
of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of Parent, the Beneficiaries and the Blocker Holder and any of their transactions,
and all materials of any kind (including tax opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the Beneficiaries or the Blocker
Holder relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. If a Beneficiary, the Blocker Holder or an assignee commits a breach,
or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of this Section 7.13, Parent shall have the right and remedy
to have the provisions of this Section 7.13 specifically enforced by injunctive relief or otherwise by any court of competent
jurisdiction without the need to post any bond or other security, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened
breach shall cause irreparable injury to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and that money damages alone shall not provide an adequate
remedy to such Persons. Such rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available
at law or in equity.
7.14 Independent
Nature of Beneficiaries’ Rights and Obligations. The rights and obligations of each Beneficiary and the Blocker Holder
hereunder are several and not joint with the rights and obligations of any other Person. A Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder shall
not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Person hereunder, nor shall a Beneficiary or
the Blocker Holder have the right to enforce the rights or obligations of any other Person hereunder (other than Parent). The
obligations of a Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder hereunder are solely for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable solely by,
Parent. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action taken by any Beneficiary
or the Blocker Holder pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder acting
as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Beneficiaries
or the Blocker Holder are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such rights or obligations or the transactions
contemplated hereby, and Parent acknowledges that the Beneficiaries or the Blocker Holder are not acting in concert or as a group
and will not assert any such claim with respect to such rights or obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby.
7.15 Change
in Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, in connection with an actual or proposed change in law, a Beneficiary
or the Blocker Holder reasonably believes that the existence of this Agreement could cause income (other than income arising from
receipt of a payment under this Agreement) recognized by such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder (or direct or indirect equity
holders in such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder) in connection with the Second Merger or the Blocker Contribution to be treated
as ordinary income rather than capital gain (or otherwise taxed at ordinary income rates) for U.S. federal income tax purposes
or would have other material adverse tax consequences to such Beneficiary, the Blocker Holder or any direct or indirect owner
of such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder, then at the written election of such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder, as the case
may be, in its sole discretion (in an instrument signed by such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder and delivered to Parent) and
to the extent specified therein by such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder, as the case may be, this Agreement shall cease to have
further effect, or may be amended by in a manner reasonably determined by such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder; provided
that such amendment shall not result in an increase in any payments owed by Parent under this Agreement at any time as compared
to the amounts and times of payments that would have been due in the absence of such amendment.
7.16 Interest
Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the interest paid or agreed to be paid hereunder
with respect to amounts due to any Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder hereunder shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious
interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder shall receive
interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the Tax Benefit Payment or Early
Termination Payment, as applicable (but in each case exclusive of any component thereof comprising interest) or, if it exceeds
such unpaid non-interest amount, refunded to Parent. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received
by any Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Beneficiary or the Blocker Holder may, to the extent permitted
by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b)
exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts
the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the payment obligations owed by Parent to such Beneficiary or
the Blocker Holder hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Parties to conform strictly to any applicable
usury laws.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, Parent and the other Persons party hereto have duly executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.

2.
REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
2.1 Resale Shelf
Registration Rights.
2.1.1 Registration
Statement Covering Resale of Registrable Securities. ParentCo shall prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with
the Commission, no later than forty five (45) days following the date that ParentCo becomes eligible to use Form S-3 or its successor
form (the “S-3 Eligibility Date”), a Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous
basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act registering the resale from time to time by Investors of all of the Registrable
Securities then held by or then issuable, including the shares of Common Stock issuable as Contingency Consideration (as defined
in the Business Combination Agreement) and shares of Common Stock issuable as Earn-Out Consideration (as defined in the Founder
Support Agreement), to Investors that are not covered by an effective registration statement on the S-3 Eligibility Date (the “Resale
Shelf Registration Statement”). The Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 or another appropriate
form permitting Registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by such Investors. ParentCo shall use reasonable best efforts
to cause the Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as possible after filing, and once effective,
to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act at all times until the expiration
of the Effectiveness Period.
2.1.2 Notification
and Distribution of Materials. ParentCo shall notify the Investors in writing of the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration
Statement and shall furnish to them, without charge, such number of copies of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (including
any amendments, supplements and exhibits), the Prospectus contained therein (including each preliminary prospectus and all related
amendments and supplements) and any documents incorporated by reference in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or such other
documents as the Investors may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities in the manner described
in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement.
2.1.3 Amendments and
Supplements. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1.1 above, ParentCo shall promptly prepare and file with the Commission
from time to time such amendments and supplements to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all the Registrable Securities during the Effectiveness Period.
2.1.4 Notwithstanding
the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2.1, in the event the Commission informs ParentCo that all of the
Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on
a single registration statement, ParentCo agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable
efforts to file amendments to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Resale
Shelf Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”),
in either case covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission, on Form S-3
or such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that
prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, ParentCo shall be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts
to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available
written or oral guidance, comments, requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the “SEC Guidance”),
including without limitation, the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations D.29. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered
on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that ParentCo used diligent efforts to advocate
with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing
by a holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement
will be reduced on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Investors, subject to a determination
by the Commission that certain Investors must be reduced first based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Investors.
In the event ParentCo amends the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be,
under clauses (i) or (ii) above, ParentCo will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly
as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to ParentCo or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration
statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered
for resale on the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement.
2.1.5 Notice of Certain
Events. ParentCo shall promptly notify the Investors in writing of any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement
to, or additional information in connection with, the Resale Shelf Registration Statement required to be prepared and filed hereunder
(or Prospectus relating thereto). ParentCo shall promptly notify each Investor in writing of the filing of the Resale Shelf Registration
Statement or any Prospectus, amendment or supplement related thereto or any post-effective amendment to the Resale Shelf Registration
Statement and the effectiveness of any post-effective amendment.
(a)
If ParentCo shall receive a request from the holders of Registrable Securities with an estimated market value of at least
$[●] (the requesting holder(s) shall be referred to herein as the “Requesting Holder”) that ParentCo
effect the Underwritten Takedown of all or any portion of the Requesting Holder’s Registrable Securities, and specifying
the intended method of disposition thereof, then ParentCo shall promptly give notice of such requested Underwritten Takedown (each
such request shall be referred to herein as a “Demand Takedown”) at least ten (10) Business Days prior
to the anticipated filing date of the prospectus or supplement relating to such Demand Takedown to the other Investors and thereupon
shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect, as expeditiously as possible, the offering in such Underwritten Takedown of:
(i)
subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.2.4, all Registrable Securities for which the Requesting
Holder has requested such offering under Section 2.1.5(a), and
(ii)
subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.2.4, all other Registrable Securities that any holders of
Registrable Securities (all such holders, together with the Requesting Holder, the “Selling Holders”)
have requested ParentCo to offer by request received by ParentCo within seven Business Days after such holders receive ParentCo’s
notice of the Demand Takedown, all to the extent necessary to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof
as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities so to be offered.
(b)
Promptly after the expiration of the seven-Business Day-period referred to in Section 2.1.5(a)(ii), ParentCo
will notify all Selling Holders of the identities of the other Selling Holders and the number of shares of Registrable Securities
requested to be included therein.
(c)
ParentCo shall only be required to effectuate: (i) one Underwritten Takedown within any six-month period; (ii) no more than
[●] Underwritten Takedowns in respect of all Registrable Securities held by the NAC Investors after giving effect to Section 2.2.1(c);
and (d) no more than [●] Underwritten Takedowns in respect of all Registrable Securities held by the Company Investors after
giving effect to Section 2.2.1(d).
(d)
If the managing underwriter in an Underwritten Takedown advises ParentCo and the Requesting Holder that, in its view, the
number of shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such underwritten offering exceeds the largest number of
shares that can be sold without having an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such shares can be sold,
the shares included in such Underwritten Takedown will be reduced by the Registrable Securities held by the Selling Holders (applied
on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by such Investors, subject to a determination by the
Commission that certain Investors must be reduced first based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Investors).
2.1.6 Selection of
Underwriters. Selling Holders holding a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities requested to be sold in an Underwritten
Takedown shall have the right to select an Underwriter or Underwriters in connection with such Underwritten Takedown, which Underwriter
or Underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to ParentCo. In connection with an Underwritten Takedown, ParentCo shall enter into
customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required
in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Takedown, including, if necessary,
the engagement of a “qualified independent underwriter” in connection with the qualification of the underwriting arrangements
with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
2.1.7 Registrations effected
pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.2.
2.2 Demand Registration.
2.2.1 Request for
Registration. At any time and from time to time after the expiration of a lock-up to which such shares are subject, if any,
(i) NAC Investors who hold a [a majority in interest] of the Registrable Securities held by all NAC Investors or (ii) Company Investors
who hold [●]of the Registrable Securities held by all Company Investors, as the case may be, may make a written demand for
Registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities on Form S-1 or any similar long-form
Registration or, if then available, on Form S-3. Each registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 is referred
to herein as a “Demand Registration”. Any demand for a Demand Registration shall specify the number of
shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. ParentCo will notify all
Investors that are holders of Registrable Securities of the demand, and each such holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to
include all or a portion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the Demand Registration (each such holder including shares
of Registrable Securities in such registration, a “Demanding Holder”) shall so notify ParentCo within
fifteen (15) days after the receipt by the holder of the notice from ParentCo. Upon any such request, the Demanding Holders shall
be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject to Section 2.2.4 and the provisos
set forth in Section 3.1.1. ParentCo shall not be obligated to effect: (a) more than one (1) Demand Registration during
any six-month period; (b) any Demand Registration at any time there is an effective Resale Shelf Registration Statement on file
with the Commission pursuant to Section 2.1; (c) more than [●]Underwritten Demand Registrations in respect of all Registrable
Securities held by the NAC Investors, each of which will also count as an Underwritten Takedown of the NAC Investors under Section 2.1.5(c)(ii);
or (d) more than [●]Underwritten Demand Registrations in respect of all Registrable Securities held by the Company Investors,
each of which will also count as an Underwritten Takedown of the Company Investors under Section 2.1.5(c)(iii).
2.2.2 Effective Registration.
A Registration will not count as a Demand Registration until the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect
to such Demand Registration has been declared effective and ParentCo has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement
with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, the offering of
Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission or
any other governmental agency or court, the Registration Statement with respect to such Demand Registration will be deemed not
to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated,
and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders thereafter elect to continue the offering; provided, further, that ParentCo
shall not be obligated to file a second Registration Statement until a Registration Statement that has been filed is counted as
a Demand Registration or is terminated.
2.2.3 Underwritten
Offering. If the Demanding Holders so elect and such holders so advise ParentCo as part of their written demand for a Demand
Registration, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten
offering with an estimated market value of at least $[●]. In such event, the right of any holder to include its Registrable
Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion
of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing
to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form
with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such underwriting by the holders initiating the Demand Registration, and subject
to the approval of ParentCo.
2.2.4 Reduction of
Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises
ParentCo and the Demanding Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding
Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Stock or other securities which ParentCo desires to sell and the Common
Stock, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held
by other shareholders of ParentCo who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be
sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability
of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, the “Maximum Number
of Shares”), then ParentCo shall include in such registration: (i) first, the Registrable Securities as to which
Demand Registration has been requested by the Demanding Holders (pro rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such
Person has requested be included in such registration, regardless of the number of shares held by each such Person (such proportion
is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares;
(ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Common Stock
or other securities that ParentCo desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) third,
to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Common Stock
or other securities for the account of other persons that ParentCo is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements
with such persons, as to which “piggy-back” registration has been requested by the holders thereof, Pro Rata, that
can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.
2.2.5 Withdrawal.
If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwriting or are not entitled to include all
of their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw from
such offering by giving written notice to ParentCo and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. If the majority-in-interest
of the Demanding Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration, then either the Demanding Holders
shall reimburse ParentCo for the costs associated with the withdrawn registration (in which case such registration shall not count
as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.1) or the withdrawn registration shall count as a Demand Registration
provided for in Section 2.1.
2.3 Piggy-Back Registration.
2.3.1 Piggy-Back Rights.
If at any time after [________, 2020], ParentCo proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect
to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity
securities, by ParentCo for its own account or for shareholders of ParentCo for their account (or by ParentCo and by shareholders
of ParentCo including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection
with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to ParentCo’s
existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of ParentCo or (iv) for a dividend
reinvestment plan, then ParentCo shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities
as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe
the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the
proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities
in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Registrable Securities as such holders may request
in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration”). ParentCo
shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing
Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in
a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of ParentCo and to permit the sale or other
disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable
Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters
shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back
Registration.
2.3.2 Reduction of
Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an underwritten offering

desires to sell, taken together with Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to written contractual
arrangements with persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder and the Registrable Securities as to which
registration has been requested under this Section 2.3, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then ParentCo shall include
in any such registration:
(a)
If the registration is undertaken for ParentCo’s account: (A) first, the Common Stock or other securities that ParentCo
desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum
Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Common Stock or other securities, if any, comprised of
Registrable Securities, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding
the Maximum Number of Shares, Pro Rata; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of shares has not been reached under
the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Common Stock or other securities for the account of other persons that ParentCo is obligated
to register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding
the Maximum Number of Shares; and
(b)
If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of persons other than either the holders
of Registrable Securities, (A) first, the Common Stock or other securities for the account of the demanding persons that can be
sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached
under the foregoing clause (A), the Common Stock or other securities that ParentCo desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding
the Maximum Number of Shares; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing
clauses (A) and (B), the Common Stock or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration
has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (D) fourth,
to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Common Stock
or other securities for the account of other persons that ParentCo is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements
with such persons, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.
2.3.3 Withdrawal.
Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities
in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to ParentCo of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement. ParentCo (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by persons making a demand
pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such
Registration Statement. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, ParentCo shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Registrable
Securities in connection with such Piggy-Back Registration as provided in Section 3.3.
3.
REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.
3.1 Filings; Information.
Whenever ParentCo is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2, ParentCo shall
use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended
method(s) of distribution thereof as expeditiously as practicable, and in connection with any such request:
3.1.1 Filing Registration
Statement. ParentCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to, as expeditiously as possible after receipt of a request for a
Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement on any form for
which ParentCo then qualifies or which counsel for ParentCo shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale
of all Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof, and
shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and use its reasonable best efforts
to keep it effective for the Effectiveness Period; provided, however, that ParentCo shall have the right to defer any Demand Registration
for up to sixty (60) days, and any Piggy-Back Registration for such period as may be applicable to deferment of any Demand Registration
to which such Piggy-Back Registration relates, in each case if ParentCo shall furnish to the holders a certificate signed by the
Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of ParentCo stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of ParentCo
(the “ParentCo Board”), it would be materially detrimental to ParentCo and its shareholders for such
Registration Statement to be effected at such time; provided further, however, that ParentCo shall not have the right to exercise
the right set forth in the immediately preceding proviso for more than a total of sixty (60) consecutive calendar days, or more
than ninety (90) total calendar days, in each case during any 365-day period in respect of a Demand Registration hereunder.
3.1.2 Copies.
ParentCo shall, prior to filing a Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without
charge to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration, and such holders’ legal counsel, copies of
such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each case
including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement
(including each preliminary prospectus), and such other documents as the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration
or legal counsel for any such holders may request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by
such holders.
3.1.3 Amendments and
Supplements. ParentCo shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and
supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration
Statement effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until all Registrable Securities and other securities
covered by such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution set forth
in such Registration Statement or such securities have been withdrawn (the “Effectiveness Period”).
3.1.4 Notification.
After the filing of a Registration Statement, ParentCo shall promptly, and in no event more than two (2) Business Days after such
filing, notify the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement of such filing, and shall further
notify such holders promptly and confirm such advice in writing in all events within two (2) Business Days of the occurrence of
any of the following: (i) when such Registration Statement becomes effective; (ii) when any post-effective amendment to such Registration
Statement becomes effective; (iii) the issuance or threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order (and ParentCo shall
take all actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered); and (iv) any request by the Commission
for any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or any prospectus relating thereto or for additional information
or of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter
delivered to the purchasers of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, such prospectus will not contain an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, and promptly make available to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement
any such supplement or amendment; except that before filing with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment
or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, ParentCo shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities
included in such Registration Statement and to the legal counsel for any such holders, copies of all such documents proposed to
be filed sufficiently in advance of filing to provide such holders and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such
documents and comment thereon.
3.1.5 Securities Laws
Compliance. ParentCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by
the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the
holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may
reasonably request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement
to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations
of ParentCo and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the holders of Registrable Securities
included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided,
however, that ParentCo shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise
be required to qualify but for this paragraph or subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction.
3.1.6 Agreements for
Disposition. ParentCo shall enter into customary agreements (including, if applicable, an underwriting agreement in customary
form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable
Securities. The representations, warranties and covenants of ParentCo in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the
benefit of any Underwriters, to the extent applicable, shall also be made to and for the benefit of the holders of Registrable
Securities included in such registration statement, and the representations, warranties and covenants of the holders of Registrable
Securities included in such registration statement in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters,
to the extent applicable, shall also be made to and for the benefit of ParentCo.
3.1.7 Comfort Letter.
ParentCo shall obtain a “cold comfort” letter from ParentCo’s independent registered public accountants in the
event of an underwritten offering, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort”
letters as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating
holders.
3.1.8 Opinions.
On the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to any Registration, ParentCo shall obtain an opinion, dated
such date, of one (1) counsel representing ParentCo for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the holders, the placement
agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect
of which such opinion is being given as the holders, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriter may reasonably request and as
are customarily included in such opinions, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the participating holders.
3.1.9 Cooperation.
The principal executive officer of ParentCo, the principal financial officer of ParentCo, the principal accounting officer of ParentCo
and all other officers and members of the management of ParentCo shall cooperate fully in any offering of Registrable Securities
hereunder, which cooperation shall include, without limitation, the preparation of the Registration Statement with respect to such
offering and all other offering materials and related documents, and participation in meetings with Underwriters, attorneys, accountants
and potential investors.
3.1.10 Records.
Upon execution of confidentiality agreements, ParentCo shall make available for inspection by the holders of Registrable Securities
included in such Registration Statement, any Underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement
and any attorney, accountant or other professional retained by any holder of Registrable Securities included in such Registration
Statement or any Underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of ParentCo, as shall
be necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause ParentCo’s officers, directors and
employees to supply all information requested by any of them in connection with such Registration Statement.
3.1.11 Earnings Statement.
ParentCo shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and the Securities Act, and make available to
its shareholders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of twelve (12) months, which earnings statement
shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.
3.1.12 Listing.
ParentCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement to be
listed on such exchanges or otherwise designated for trading in the same manner as similar securities issued by ParentCo are then
listed or designated.
3.2 Obligation to
Suspend Distribution. Upon receipt of any notice from ParentCo of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section
3.1.4(iv), or, upon any suspension by ParentCo, pursuant to a written insider trading compliance program adopted by the ParentCo
Board, of the ability of all “insiders” covered by such program to transact in ParentCo’s securities because
of the existence of material non-public information, each holder of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall immediately
discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities
until such holder receives the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.1.4(iv) or the restriction on
the ability of “insiders” to transact in ParentCo’s securities is removed, as applicable, and, if so directed
by ParentCo, each such holder will deliver to ParentCo all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such holder’s
possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice.
3.3 Registration
Expenses. ParentCo shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Resale Shelf Registration Statement pursuant
to Section 2.1, any Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, any Demand Takedown pursuant to Section 2.1.5(a)(i),
any Piggy-Back Registration pursuant to Section 2.3, and any registration on Form S-3 effected pursuant to Section 2.3,

Securities being sold by the holders thereof, which underwriting discounts or selling commissions shall be borne by such holders.
Additionally, in an underwritten offering, all selling shareholders and ParentCo shall bear the expenses of the Underwriter pro
rata in proportion to the respective amount of shares each is selling in such offering.
3.4 Information.
The holders of Registrable Securities shall promptly provide such information as may reasonably be requested by ParentCo, or the
managing Underwriter, if any, in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement, including amendments and supplements
thereto, in order to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act and in connection with ParentCo’s
obligation to comply with Federal and applicable state securities laws.
4.
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.
4.1 Indemnification
by ParentCo. ParentCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and each other holder of Registrable Securities,
and each of their respective officers, employees, affiliates, directors, partners, members, attorneys and agents, and each person,
if any, who controls an Investor and each other holder of Registrable Securities (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, an “Investor Indemnified Party”), from and against any
expenses, losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue
statement (or allegedly untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such
Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus
contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arising out of or based
upon any omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, or any violation by ParentCo of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable
to ParentCo and relating to action or inaction required of ParentCo in connection with any such registration; and ParentCo shall
promptly reimburse the Investor Indemnified Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Investor Indemnified
Party in connection with investigating and defending any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or action; provided,
however, that ParentCo will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability
arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such
Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in
reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to ParentCo, in writing, by such selling holder expressly for use therein,
or is based on any selling holder’s violation of the federal securities laws (including Regulation M) or failure to sell
the Registrable Securities in accordance with the plan of distribution contained in the prospectus.
4.2 Indemnification
by Holders of Registrable Securities. Each selling holder of Registrable Securities will, in the event that any registration
is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling holder,
indemnify and hold harmless ParentCo, each of its directors and officers, and each other selling holder and each other person,
if any, who controls another selling holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, judgments, damages
or liabilities, whether joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary
prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the
Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance
upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to ParentCo by such selling holder expressly for use therein, or is
based on any selling holder’s violation of the federal securities laws (including Regulation M) or failure to sell the Registrable
Securities in accordance with the plan of distribution contained in the prospectus, and shall reimburse ParentCo, its directors
and officers, and each other selling holder or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of
them in connection with investigation or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. Each selling holder’s
indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds actually
received by such selling holder.
4.3 Conduct of Indemnification
Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability or any action in respect
of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Sections 4.1 or 4.2, such person (the “Indemnified Party”)
shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other person for indemnification hereunder, notify such other person
(the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability or action; provided,
however, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from
any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying
Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or
action brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action,
and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume
control of the defense of such claim or action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal
or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs
of investigation; provided, however, that in any action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named
as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel,
which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling persons
who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against
the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written
opinion of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to
actual or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified
Party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which
the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless
such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such
claim or proceeding.
4.4 Contribution.
4.4.1 If the indemnification
provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect
of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying
such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the
Indemnifying Parties in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action,
as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying
Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement
or omission.
4.4.2 The parties hereto
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4.2 were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the
immediately preceding Section 4.4.1.
4.4.3 The amount paid
or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such
Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 4.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount
of the net proceeds (after payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder
from the sale of Registrable Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty
of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
5.
UNDERWRITING AND DISTRIBUTION.
5.1 Rule 144.
ParentCo covenants that it shall file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and
shall take such further action as the holders of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from
time to time to enable such holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation
of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or any similar
rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission.
6.
LOCK-UP AGREEMENTS
6.1 Investor Lock-Up.
Each Investor agrees that such Investor shall not Transfer any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable
or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for Common Stock (whether such shares of Common Stock or any such securities are issued
to such Investor pursuant to the First Merger, the Contribution or the Second Merger or are thereafter acquired) for 180-days following
the Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Business Combination Agreement). The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed
to preclude each Investor during such 180-day period from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or
which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of such Investor’s Common Stock even if
such shares of Common Stock would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions
during such 180-day period would include without limitation any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including
without limitation any put or call option) with respect to any of the Investor’s Common Stock or with respect to any security
that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such shares of Common Stock. The foregoing notwithstanding,
each executive officer and director of the Company shall be permitted to establish a plan to acquire and sell shares of Common
Stock pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act; provided, however, no sale of shares under any such plan shall
be made prior to the expiration of the 180-day lock-up period referred to in the first sentence of this Section 6.1.

Director Vacancies. Each Investor agrees to vote, or cause to be voted, all shares of Common Stock owned by such Investor,
or over which such Investor has voting control, from time to time and at all times, in whatever manner as shall be necessary to

approved by the affirmative vote of the Company Founders entitled under Section 7.4 to designate such director; or (ii) the Company
Founders are no longer entitled to designate ParentCo directors pursuant to Section 7.4; and (b) any vacancies created by the resignation,
removal or death of a director elected pursuant to Section 7.4 shall be filled pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7. ParentCo

respect to the shares of Common Stock owned by such Investor as of the date of this Agreement or hereafter acquired, to vote, each
of such shares of Common Stock solely with respect to the matters set forth in Section 7 hereof. Each Investor intends this proxy
to be irrevocable and coupled with an interest hereunder and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by such Investor with
respect to the shares of Common Stock owned by such Investor as of the date of this Agreement or hereafter acquired.
8.
MISCELLANEOUS.
8.1 Other Registration
Rights and Arrangements. ParentCo represents and warrants that no person, other than a holder of the Registrable Securities
has any right to require ParentCo to register any of ParentCo’s share capital for sale or to include ParentCo’s share
capital in any registration filed by ParentCo for the sale of shares for its own account or for the account of any other person.
NAC and the NAC Investors hereby terminate the Prior NAC Agreement, which shall be of no further force and effect and is hereby
superseded and replaced in its entirety by this Agreement. The Company, Blocker and the Open Lending Investors hereby terminate
the Prior Company Agreement, which shall be of no further force and effect and is hereby superseded and replaced in its entirety
by this Agreement. ParentCo shall not hereafter enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which is inconsistent with
or violates the rights granted to the holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement and in the event of any conflict between
any such agreement or agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.
8.2 Assignment;
No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of ParentCo hereunder may not be assigned
or delegated by ParentCo in whole or in part. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the holders of Registrable
Securities hereunder may be freely assigned or delegated by such holder of Registrable Securities in conjunction with and to the
extent of any permitted transfer of Registrable Securities by any such holder. This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be
binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and the holders
of Registrable Securities and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement is not intended to confer any rights
or benefits on any persons that are not party hereto other than as expressly set forth in Section 4 and this Section
8.2. The rights of a holder of Registrable Securities under this Agreement may be transferred by such a holder to a transferee
who acquires or holds Registrable Securities; provided, however, that such transferee has executed and delivered to ParentCo a
properly completed agreement to be bound by the terms of this Agreement substantially in form attached hereto as Exhibit A (an
“Addendum Agreement”), and the transferor shall have delivered to ParentCo no later than thirty (30)
days following the date of the transfer, written notification of such transfer setting forth the name of the transferor, the name
and address of the transferee, and the number of Registrable Securities so transferred. The execution of an Addendum Agreement
shall constitute a permitted amendment of this Agreement.
8.3 Amendments and
Modifications. Upon the written consent of ParentCo, the Holders of at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities
at the time in question, compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived,
or any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing,
any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in his, her or its capacity as a holder of the
shares of capital stock of ParentCo, in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in such capacity) shall require
the consent of the Holder so affected. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, (i) the rights of the NAC Investors
pursuant to Section 1 (with respect to the definition of “Registrable Securities”), Section 2.1.5, Section 2.2.1, Section
2.2.2, Section 6.1, Section 7.2, Section 7.5 and Section 8.4 shall only be waived, amended and modified by the NAC Investors who
hold a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities held by all NAC Investors at the time in question; (ii) the rights of
Blocker Holder pursuant to Section 7.3 and 7.6 shall only be waived, amended and modified by Blocker Holder; and (iii) the rights
of the Company Founders pursuant to Section 7.4 and 7.7 shall only be waived, amended and modified by the Company Founders who
hold a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities held by all Company Founders at the time in question. No course of dealing
between any Holder or ParentCo and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or ParentCo in exercising
any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or ParentCo. No single
or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise
of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.
8.4 Term. This
Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the tenth anniversary of the date of this Agreement or (ii) the date
as of which (A) all of the Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to a Registration Statement (but in no event prior
to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder (or any successor
rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission)) or (B) the Holders of all Registrable Securities are permitted to sell
the Registrable Securities under Rule 144 (or any similar provision) under the Securities Act without limitation on the amount
of securities sold or the manner of sale; provided further that with respect to any Investor, such Investor will have no rights
under this Agreement and all obligations of ParentCo to such Investor under this Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of
(x) the date such Investor ceases to hold at least [●] Registrable Securities or (y) if such Investor is an executive
officer of the Company as of immediately prior to the consummation of the Second Merger, the date such Investor no longer serves
as an executive officer of ParentCo.
