2. Representations and Warranties of the Subscriber.

The Subscriber represents and warrants to the Company that:

2.1. Organization; Authority. The Subscriber is either an individual or an entity duly incorporated or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation with full right, corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of the

2


Transaction Documents and performance by the Subscriber of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar action, as applicable, on the part of the Subscriber. Each Transaction Document to which it is a party has been duly executed by the Subscriber, and when delivered by the Subscriber in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Subscriber, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.

2.2. No Government Recommendation or Approval. Subscriber understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Company or the offering of the Securities, as contemplated by this Agreement.

2.3. Accredited Investor. Subscriber represents that it is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act, and acknowledges that the sale contemplated hereby is being made in reliance, among other things, on a private placement exemption to “accredited investors” under the Securities Act and similar exemptions under state law.

2.4. Intent. Subscriber is purchasing the Securities solely for investment purposes, for such Subscriber’s own account (and/or for the account or benefit of its members or affiliates, as permitted, pursuant to the terms of an agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) to be entered into with respect to the Securities between the Subscriber and the Company), and not with a view to the distribution thereof and Subscriber has no present arrangement to sell the Securities to or through any person or entity except as may be permitted under the Letter Agreement. Subscriber shall not engage in hedging transactions with regard to the Securities unless in compliance with the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.

2.5. Restrictions on Transfer. Subscriber acknowledges and understands the Securities are being offered in a transaction not involving a public offering in the United States within the meaning of the Securities Act. Subscriber acknowledges and understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” and have not been registered under the Securities Act and, if in the future Subscriber decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Securities, such Securities may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, (B) pursuant to an exemption from registration under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, if available, or (C) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state or any other jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subscriber acknowledges and understands the Securities are subject to transfer restrictions as described in Section 8 hereof. Subscriber agrees that if any transfer of its Securities or any interest therein is proposed to be made, as a condition precedent to any such transfer, a Subscriber may be required to deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company with respect to such transfer. Absent registration or another available exemption from registration, Subscriber agrees it will not resell the Securities (unless otherwise permitted pursuant to the Letter Agreement, as described in the Registration Statement). Subscriber further acknowledges that because the Company is a shell company, Rule 144 may not be available to Subscriber for the resale of the Securities until the one year anniversary following consummation of the initial Business Combination of the Company, despite technical compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 and the release or waiver of any contractual transfer restrictions.

2.6. Sophisticated Investor.

3


(i) Subscriber, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Securities, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment.

(ii) Subscriber is aware that an investment in the Securities is highly speculative and subject to substantial risks because, among other things, the Securities are subject to transfer restrictions and have not been registered under the Securities Act and therefore cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time.

2.7. Independent Investigation. Subscriber, in making the decision to purchase the Securities, has relied upon an independent investigation of the Company and has not relied upon any information or representations made by any third parties or upon any oral or written representations or assurances from the Company, its officers, directors or employees or any other representatives or agents of the Company, other than as set forth in this Agreement. The Subscriber acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review the Transaction Documents (including all exhibits and schedules thereto), as well as the Company’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Subscriber is familiar with the business, operations and financial condition of the Company and has been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and receive answers from, the Company’s officers and directors concerning the Company and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities; (ii) access to information about the Company and its financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment; and (iii) has had full access to such other information concerning the Company as such Subscriber has requested. Subscriber confirms that all documents that it has requested have been made available and that the Subscriber has been supplied with all of the additional information concerning this investment which such Subscriber has requested that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment.

2.8. No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by Subscriber of the transactions contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) Subscriber’s respective charter documents, (ii) any agreement or instrument to which Subscriber is a party or (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which Subscriber is subject, or any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which Subscriber is subject. To the extent that any claim, proceeding, suit, or other action is brought against Subscriber in connection with moneys used to fund the Purchase Price, Subscriber shall, at the option and in the sole discretion of the Company (which option may be exercised by written notice to the Subscriber, such notice the “Clawback Notice”), surrender the Shares and Private Placement Warrants, without consideration, to the Company or its designated agent within three business days of receipt of a Clawback Notice from the Company.

2.9. No Legal Advice from Company. Subscriber acknowledges it has had the opportunity to review this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other agreements entered into between the parties hereto with Subscriber’s own legal counsel and investment and tax advisors. Except for any statements or representations of the Company made in this Agreement and the other agreements entered into between the parties hereto, Subscriber is relying solely on such review, counsel and advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its representatives or agents for legal, tax or investment advice with respect to this investment, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the securities laws of any jurisdiction.

2.10. Reliance on Representations and Warranties. Subscriber understands the Securities are being offered and sold to Subscriber in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements under the Securities Act, and analogous provisions in the laws and regulations of various states, and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of Subscriber set forth in this Agreement in order to determine the applicability of such provisions.

2.11. No General Solicitation. Subscriber is not subscribing for the Securities as a result of or subsequent to any general solicitation or general advertising, including but not limited to any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, or presented at any seminar or meeting or in a registration statement with respect to Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

2.12. Legend. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees the certificates evidencing each of the Securities shall bear a restrictive legend (the “Legend”), in form and substance substantially as set forth in Section 4 hereof.

2.13.  Certain Transactions. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, the Subscriber has not, nor has any person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with the Subscriber, directly or indirectly executed any purchases or sales, including short sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing as of the time that the Subscriber first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any other person representing the Company setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and ending immediately prior to the execution hereof.

2.14 Confidentiality. Subscriber agrees that for two years from the date hereof, it will keep confidential and will not disclose, divulge, or use for any purpose (other than to monitor or make decisions with respect to its investment in the Company) any confidential information obtained from the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, unless such confidential information (a) is known or becomes known to the public in general (other than as a result of a breach of this Section 2.14 by the Subscriber), (b) is or has been independently developed or conceived by the Subscriber without use of the Company’s confidential information, or (c) is or has been made known or disclosed to the Subscriber by a third party without a breach of any obligation of confidentiality such third party may have to the Company; provided, however, that the Subscriber may disclose confidential information (i) to its representatives, including attorneys, accountants, consultants, and other professionals, to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain their services in connection with monitoring its investment in the Company; or (ii) as may otherwise be required by law, regulation, rule, court order or subpoena, provided that the Subscriber promptly notifies the Company of such disclosure and takes reasonable steps to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Company may seek equitable relief (including injunctive relief) against the Subscriber and its representatives to prevent the breach or threatened breach of this Section 2.14 and to secure its enforcement.
