Sponsor shall be bound by, subject to and comply with Sections 7.4 (No Solicitation by Acquiror) and 11.12 (Publicity) of the Merger Agreement (and any relevant definitions contained in any such Sections) as if Sponsor was an original signatory to the Merger Agreement with respect to such provisions.

Section 1.2 No Transfer. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earliest of (a) the Closing, (b) such date and time as the Merger Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Section 10.1 thereof (the earlier to occur of (a) and (b), the “Expiration Time”) and (c) the liquidation of Acquiror (except that any transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement shall not be considered a liquidation), Sponsor shall not (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, file (or participate in the filing of) a registration statement with the SEC (other than the Acquiror Proxy Statement/Prospectus) or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, with respect to any shares of Acquiror Common Stock or Acquiror Warrants owned by Sponsor, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any shares of Acquiror Common Stock or Acquiror Warrants owned by Sponsor (clauses (i) and (ii), collectively a “Transfer”) or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii); provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit a Transfer an Affiliate of Sponsor (a “Permitted Transfer”); provided, further, that any Permitted Transfer shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee also agrees in a writing, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, to assume all of the obligations of Sponsor under, and be bound by all of the terms of, this Sponsor Support Agreement; provided, further, that any Transfer permitted under this Section 1.2 shall not relieve Sponsor of its obligations under this Sponsor Support Agreement. Any Transfer in violation of this Section 1.2 with respect to the Sponsor’s Subject Shares shall be null and void.

Section 1.3 New Shares. In the event that (a) any shares of Acquiror Common Stock, Acquiror Warrants or other equity securities of Acquiror or its successor by merger are issued to Sponsor after the date of this Sponsor Support Agreement pursuant to any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, combination or exchange of shares of Acquiror Common Stock or Acquiror Warrants of, on or affecting the shares of Acquiror Common Stock or Acquiror Warrants owned by Sponsor or otherwise, (b) Sponsor purchases or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of any shares of Acquiror Common Stock, Acquiror Warrants or other equity securities of Acquiror after the date of this Sponsor Support Agreement, or (c) Sponsor acquires the right to vote or share in the voting of any shares of Acquiror Common Stock or other equity securities of Acquiror after the date of this Sponsor Support Agreement (such shares of Acquiror Common Stock, Acquiror Warrants or other equity securities of Acquiror, collectively the “New Securities”), then such New Securities acquired or purchased by Sponsor shall be subject to the terms of this Sponsor Support Agreement to the same extent as if they constituted the shares of Acquiror Common Stock or Acquiror Warrants owned by Sponsor as of the date hereof.

Section 1.4 Sponsor and Acquiror Agreements.

(a) At any meeting of the stockholders of Acquiror, however called, or at any adjournment thereof, or in any other circumstance in which the vote, consent or other approval of the stockholders of Acquiror is sought, Sponsor shall (i) appear at each such meeting or otherwise cause all of its shares of Acquiror Common Stock to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum and (ii) vote (or cause to be voted), or execute and deliver a written consent (or cause a written consent to be executed and delivered) covering, all of its shares of Acquiror Common Stock:

(iv) against any change in the business, management or Board of Directors of Acquiror (other than in connection with the Transaction Proposals); and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sponsor shall be permitted to amend the Voting Letter Agreement to amend the Founder Shares Lock-Up Period (as defined in the Voting Letter Agreement) to read as “The Sponsor and each Insider agrees that it, he or she shall not Transfer (as defined below) any Founder Shares (or Class A Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof) until the earlier of (A) 180 days after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (B) subsequent to the Business Combination, (x) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Stockholders having the right to exchange their Class A Common Shares for cash, securities or other property or (y) if the last reported sale price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period after the Company’s initial Business Combination (the “Founder Shares Lock-up Period”); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, 10% (subject to adjustment to comply with the listing requirements set forth under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5505(b)(2) with respect to Acquiror) of Sponsor’s and each Insider’s Founder Shares (or Class A Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof) outstanding at completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination shall not be subject to the Founder Shares Lock-up Period”.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent the Acquiror Board of Directors (i) waives or repeals, or otherwise relaxes, the lock-up in its bylaws or (ii) permits early conversion of the Acquiror Class C Common Stock, Founder Shares Lock-up Period (as defined in the Voting Letter Agreement) shall be identically waived, repealed or relaxed, as applicable.

(b) No certificates will be issued in connection with the Exchange, and Acquiror will record the exchange of the Acquiror Class B Common Stock for the Acquiror Class A Common Stock that Sponsor is acquiring pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Section 1.7 on its books and records.

(c) The Exchange shall be applicable only in connection with the Merger and this Sponsor Support Agreement, and the Exchange shall be void and of no force and effect if this Sponsor Support Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing.

This waiver shall be void and of no force and effect following the earlier of (x) the Effective Time and (y) the date on which the Merger Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with its terms. All other terms related to the Acquiror Class B Common Stock shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified as set forth directly above, which modification shall be effective only upon the consummation of the Merger.
