Recipient further understands that any certificates evidencing the Shares bear a legend (as provided in the Subscription Agreement) referring to the foregoing transfer restrictions. The Shares are being purchased solely for Recipient’s own account, for investment purposes only, and are not being purchased with a view to or for the resale, distribution, subdivision or fractionalization thereof; and Recipient has no present plans to enter into any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement for such resale, distribution, subdivision or fractionalization. Recipient has been given the opportunity to (i) ask questions of and receive answers from the Sponsor and the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the Shares, and the business and financial condition of the Company and (ii) obtain any additional information that the Sponsor possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to assist Recipient in evaluating the advisability of the receipt of the Shares and an investment in the Company. Recipient is not relying on any oral representation made by any person as to the Company or its operations, financial condition or prospects. Recipient is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

 

 

 

Section 4        Assignment of Rights.     Recipient may assign his rights herein to immediate family members of Recipient and trusts established by Recipient for estate planning purposes, by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order, so long as such transferees (i) agree to be bound by all applicable transfer restrictions relating to the Shares, including the lock-up restriction, (ii) agree to vote in favor of the Company’s initial business combination in the event the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with its initial business combination and (iii) waive any right to participate in any liquidation distribution if the Company fails to consummate an initial business combination.

 

Section 5        Recipient’s Obligations. Recipient hereby agrees that the Shares are subject to the restrictions and obligations as set forth in that certain Securities Subscription Agreement dated October 6, 2020 (the “Subscription Agreement”) between the Sponsor and the Company. Recipient hereby agrees to be a party to that certain letter agreement between the Company and Recipient in the form anticipated to be filed with the Securities Exchange Commission.

 

Section 6       Most Favored Nation. The Sponsor hereby agrees that in the event it enters into any agreement that provides rights and benefits to the Sponsor as a result of the Sponsor’s ownership of Class A Shares or Class B Shares, the Sponsor shall offer Recipient the opportunity to obtain the same rights and benefits provided for in such agreement (pro-rata 4%), subject to the same terms and conditions set forth therein.

 

Section 7        Miscellaneous.    This Agreement, together with the certificates, documents, instruments and writings that are delivered pursuant hereto, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of its subject matter. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by all parties hereto. Except as otherwise provided herein, no party hereto may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other party.
