The Units sold in the Offering will be listed and traded on the American Stock Exchange pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 and prospectus (the “Prospectus”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 13 hereof.

The Sponsor also acknowledges and agrees that it will not have any conversion rights with respect to the shares of Founders’ Common Stock owned by it.

2. The Sponsor hereby agrees that in the event that the Company fails to consummate an Initial Business Combination within 24 months after the date of the final Prospectus relating to the Offering (or within any Extension Period), the Sponsor shall take all reasonable steps to (a) cause the Trust Account to be liquidated and distributed to the holders of Common Stock purchased in the Offering as soon as reasonably practicable and (b) cause the Company to be dissolved and liquidated as soon as reasonably practicable. The Sponsor agrees that in connection with any cessation of the corporate existence of the Company, it will take all reasonable steps to cause the Company to adopt a plan of dissolution and distribution in accordance with Section 281(b) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any successor provision thereto.
