The undersigned, being the purchaser (the “Purchaser”) of the above-referenced Bonds from PureCycle Technologies LLC (the “Seller”) on this date, hereby represents and acknowledges to you as follows:

The Purchaser has purchased the Bonds on the date hereof at the price of $800 per $1,000 principal amount of the Bonds purchased, said Bonds having been issued pursuant to that certain Indenture of Trust, dated as of October 1, 2020 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Trust Indenture”), between the Southern Ohio Port Authority (the “Issuer”) and UMB Bank, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”).

The Purchaser has sufficient knowledge and experience in business and financial matters in general, and investments such as the Bonds in particular, to enable the Purchaser to evaluate the Bonds, the credit of PureCycle: Ohio LLC (the “Company”) and the Seller, the collateral and the terms of the Bonds. The Purchaser has made its own independent credit analysis and decision to purchase the Bonds based on its independent examination and evaluation of the Limited Offering Memorandum dated September 23, 2020 relating to the Bonds and the documents listed in paragraph 4 hereof.

The Purchaser acknowledges that it has been offered copies of the Financing Documents (as defined in the Trust Indenture), and such financial and other information by the Seller and the Company and has been provided the opportunity to ask such questions as Purchaser deems

The Purchaser acknowledges that at this date the Seller is the Majority Holder of Bonds under the terms of the Trust Indenture, and that upon execution and delivery of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture described in the This Agreement of even date herewith, by and between the Seller and the Purchaser, the definition of Majority Holders in the Trust Indenture will be revised and the Seller will no longer be the Majority Holder under the Trust Indenture.

The Purchaser’s investment in the Bonds constitutes an investment that is suitable for and consistent with its investment program, and the Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Bonds, including a complete loss of such investment.

The Purchaser is an “Accredited Investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

The Purchaser is purchasing the Bonds for investment purposes, and not with a current view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution, resale, pledging, fractionalization, subdivision or other disposition thereof, provided that, although the Purchaser does not intend at this time to dispose of all or any part of the Bonds, the Seller acknowledges that the Purchaser has the right to sell and transfer the Bonds in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Trust Indenture. The Purchaser acknowledges that it is solely responsible for compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, and covenants and agrees with the Seller that it will comply with the Trust Indenture and all applicable federal or state securities laws then in effect with respect to any subsequent sale, transfer or other disposition of the Bonds, and will notify any subsequent purchaser of Bonds of the resale restriction referred to in the Trust Indenture.

The Purchaser acknowledges that the Bonds (i) have not been registered under the Securities Act, and (ii) have not been registered or qualified for sale under any state securities or “Blue Sky” laws, and that the Trust Indenture has not been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

Include in the Loan Agreement a revision to the covenant to provide year-end financial statements, such that (a) the requirement shall be required only of PureCycle Technologies LLC and shall not be required of PureCycle: Ohio LLC, and (b) such financial statements may be provided on a consolidated basis with PCT, Inc.
