WHEREAS, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (collectively, the “Transactions”), Subscriber desires to subscribe for and purchase from the Issuer that number of shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”), of the Issuer set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Acquired Shares”) for a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “Per Share Purchase Price”), and for the aggregate purchase price set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Purchase Price”), and the Issuer desires to issue and sell to Subscriber the Acquired Shares in consideration for the payment of the Purchase Price by or on behalf of Subscriber to the Issuer on or prior to the Subscription Closing (as defined below); and

WHEREAS, in connection with the Transactions, certain other “accredited investors” (as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), have entered into separate subscription agreements with the Issuer (the “Other Subscription Agreements”), pursuant to which such investors have, together with Subscriber pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, agreed to purchase on the Merger Closing Date (as the term Closing Date is defined in the Agreement and Plan of Merger) an aggregate of 123,900,000 Class A Shares at the Per Share Purchase Price.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Subscription. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, Subscriber hereby agrees to subscribe for and purchase from the Issuer, and the Issuer hereby agrees to issue and sell to Subscriber, upon the payment of the Purchase Price, the Acquired Shares (such subscription and issuance, the “Subscription”).

2. Subscription Closing.

(a) The closing of the Subscription contemplated hereby (the “Subscription Closing”) is intended to occur on the Merger Closing Date substantially concurrent with the Merger Closing (as the term Closing is defined in the Agreement and Plan of Merger) and is contingent upon the occurrence of the Merger Closing. Not less than five (5) business days prior to the scheduled Merger Closing Date, the Issuer shall provide written notice to Subscriber (the “Closing Notice”) of such scheduled Merger Closing Date; provided, that to the extent practicable, the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide earlier notice of the scheduled Merger Closing Date; and provided further, that the Issuer may delay from time to time the scheduled Merger Closing Date up to five (5) business days following the original scheduled Merger Closing Date identified in the Closing Notice, or such Merger Closing Date as it may be delayed, by written notice to Subscriber if it provides Subscriber with notice of the revised Merger Closing Date no later than twenty-four (24) hours prior to the then scheduled Merger Closing Date. Subscriber shall deliver to the Issuer at least two (2) business days prior to the then scheduled Merger Closing Date identified in the Closing Notice (unless a later time is otherwise agreed by the Issuer), to be held in escrow until the Subscription Closing, the Purchase Price for the Acquired Shares by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Issuer in the Closing Notice. Such funds shall be held on behalf of Subscriber until the Subscription Closing in an escrow account by an escrow agent selected by the Issuer, subject to such escrow agent meeting any requirements specified by Subscriber to the Issuer prior to the date hereof. On the Merger Closing Date, the Issuer shall deliver to Subscriber (i) the Acquired Shares in book-entry form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions whatsoever (other than those arising under state or federal securities laws or as set forth herein), in the name of Subscriber (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) or to a custodian designated by Subscriber, as applicable, and (ii) a copy of the records of the Issuer’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) showing Subscriber (or such nominee or custodian) as the owner of the Acquired Shares on and as of the Merger Closing Date. If the Merger Closing does not occur on the same day as the Subscription Closing, the Issuer shall promptly (but not later than one (1) business day thereafter (or two (2) business days thereafter if the Issuer reasonably believes the Merger Closing will occur within two (2) business days after the Merger Closing Date identified in the Closing Notice)) return the Purchase Price to Subscriber by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by Subscriber, and any book-entries shall be deemed cancelled; provided, that the return of the funds shall not terminate this Subscription Agreement or otherwise relieve any party of any of its obligations hereunder (including Subscriber’s obligation to purchase the Acquired Shares at the Subscription Closing).

(b) The Subscription Closing shall be subject to the conditions that, on the Merger Closing Date:

(i) no suspension by the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) of the qualification of the Acquired Shares for offering or sale or trading in the United States, or initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes, shall have occurred;

2

(ii) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transactions shall have been satisfied or waived provided that any such waiver is not materially adverse to Subscriber (in its capacity as such) (other than (A) those conditions that by their nature may only be satisfied at the closing of the Transactions, but subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as of the closing of the Transactions, (B) the condition pursuant to Section 8.1(f) of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (solely with respect to the Issuer receiving the proceeds of the Acquired Shares) and (C) the condition pursuant to Section 8.1(g) of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (solely with respect to the Issuer receiving the proceeds of the Acquired Shares));

(iii) the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger shall not have been amended, and the rights of the Issuer, Crew Merger Sub I LLC and Crew Merger Sub II LLC thereunder shall not have been waived, in a manner that is materially adverse to Subscriber (in its capacity as such);

(iv) solely with respect to Subscriber’s obligation to close, all representations and warranties made by the Issuer in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Merger Closing Date (other than (i) those representations and warranties expressly made as of an earlier date, which shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date and (ii) those representations and warranties that are already qualified by materiality or the absence of a Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), which shall be true and correct as of the Merger Closing Date), in each case without giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions;

(v) solely with respect to the Issuer’s obligation to close, all representations and warranties made by Subscriber in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Merger Closing Date (other than (i) those representations and warranties expressly made as of an earlier date, which shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date and (ii) those representations and warranties that are already qualified by materiality or the absence of a Subscriber Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), which shall be true and correct as of the Merger Closing Date), in each case without giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions;

(vi) solely with respect to Subscriber’s obligation to close, the Issuer shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Subscription Closing; and

(vii) no governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any material judgment, order, law, rule or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise preventing or prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and no governmental authority shall have threatened in writing a proceeding seeking to impose any such restraint or prohibition.

3

(c) At the Subscription Closing, the parties hereto shall make reasonable efforts to execute and deliver such additional documents and take such additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be necessary in order to consummate the Subscription as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

LLC and David M. Cote, and certain of their respective affiliates and related persons.

9

(l) Alone, or together with any professional advisor(s), Subscriber represents and acknowledges that Subscriber has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the Acquired Shares and determined that the Acquired Shares are a suitable investment for Subscriber and that Subscriber is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of Subscriber’s investment in the Issuer.

Subject to Section 5(c), at any time and from time to time when an effective Registration Statement is on file with the Commission, Subscriber and, pursuant to corresponding rights under the Other Subscription Agreements with Eligible Subscribers (as defined below) (the “Other Eligible Subscription Agreements”), the Eligible Subscribers party to such Other Eligible Subscription Agreements (collectively with Subscriber, the “Eligible Subscriber Holders”), may request (the requesting Eligible Subscriber Holder, as applicable, a “Demanding Holder”) to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities (as defined below) in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to the Registration Statement (an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”); provided that the Issuer shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include either (x) Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by Subscriber, together with other Demanding Holder(s), with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $100 million, or (y) all remaining Registrable Securities held by such Demanding Holder ((x) or (y), as applicable, the “Minimum Takedown Threshold”). All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to the Issuer, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Subject to Section 5(a)(iv), the Demanding Holder(s) shall have the right to select the underwriters for such offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject to the Issuer’s prior approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Eligible Subscriber Holder(s) in the aggregate may demand no more than two (2) Underwritten Shelf Takedowns pursuant to this Section 5(a)(i) in any twelve (12) month period.

(1) Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If the managing underwriter or underwriters in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good faith, advises the Issuer, the Demanding Holders(s) and any persons requesting piggyback rights, including, without limitation, under the A&R Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below), this Subscription Agreement or Other Eligible Subscription Agreements, or other separate contractual arrangements with persons or entities (collectively, the “Requesting Piggyback Holders”), with respect to such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other Class A Shares or other equity securities that the Requesting Piggyback Holders (if any) and the Issuer desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the underwritten offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Issuer shall include in such underwritten offering, before including any Class A Shares or other equity securities proposed to be sold by Issuer or by other holders of Class A Shares or other equity securities: (i) first, the aggregate amount or number of Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders (pro rata based on the

12

respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown) which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the aggregate amount or number of Class A Shares or other equity securities, if any, as to which registration or a registered offering has been requested by Requesting Piggyback Holders pursuant to the registration rights set forth in the A&R Registration Rights Agreement (any persons requesting or demanding registration rights pursuant to the A&R Registration Rights Agreement, the “Requesting A&R Holders”) which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), Class A Shares or other equity securities, if any, of Requesting Piggyback Holders exercising their registration rights pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or Other Eligible Subscription Agreements (any persons requesting or demanding registration rights pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or Other Eligible Subscription Agreements, the “Requesting Eligible Subscriber Holders”) (pro rata based on the respective number of registrable securities that each such other Requesting Piggyback Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown) which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the Class A Shares or other equity securities that the Issuer desires to sell which can be sold that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (v) fifth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), Class A Shares or other equity securities, if any, of Requesting Piggyback Holders exercising their registration rights pursuant to other separate contractual arrangements with persons or entities (any persons requesting or demanding registration rights pursuant to such other arrangements, the “Requesting Other Holders”) (pro rata based on the respective number of registrable securities that each such other Requesting Piggyback Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown) which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

(2) Underwritten Offering Withdrawal. Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, any Demanding Holder initiating an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall have the right to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification (a “Withdrawal Notice”) to the Issuer and the underwriter or underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown; provided that any remaining Demanding Holders may elect to have the Issuer continue an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if the Minimum Takedown Threshold

13

would still be satisfied by the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown by such remaining Demanding Holders. If withdrawn, a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall constitute a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown by the withdrawing Demanding Holder for purposes of Section 5(a)(i), unless such withdrawing Demanding Holder reimburses the Issuer for all Registration Expenses (as defined below) with respect to such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (or, if there is more than one withdrawing Demanding Holder, a pro rata portion of such Registration Expenses based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each withdrawing Demanding Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown); provided that, if any remaining Demanding Holders elect to continue such Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, such Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall count as an Underwritten Shelf Takedown demanded by such remaining Demanding Holders for purposes of Section 5(a)(i). Following the receipt of any Withdrawal Notice, the Issuer shall promptly forward such Withdrawal Notice to any other persons that had elected to participate in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Issuer shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with an Underwritten Shelf Takedown prior to its withdrawal under this Section 5(a)(i)(2), other than if a Demanding Holder elects to reimburse the Issuer for such Registration Expenses pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 5(a)(i)(2).

(ii) Piggyback Rights. Subject to Section 5(c), if the Issuer proposes to conduct a registered offering of, or if the Issuer proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the registration of, equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into equity securities, for its own account or for the account of stockholders of the Issuer, including, without limitation, pursuant to demands under Section 5(a)(i) of this Subscription Agreements, under any Other Eligible Subscription Agreement, under the A&R Registration Rights Agreement or under any other separate contractual arrangement with other persons or entities (or by the Issuer and by the stockholders of the Issuer including, without limitation, an Underwritten Shelf Takedown), other than a registration statement (or any registered offering with respect thereto) (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-4 (or similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto), (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Issuer, (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan or (v) for a Block Trade (as defined below), then the Issuer shall give written notice of such proposed offering to all of the Eligible Subscriber Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement or, in the case of an underwritten offering pursuant to a shelf registration, the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such offering, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing

14

underwriter or underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Eligible Subscriber Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to include in such registered offering such number of Registrable Securities as such Eligible Subscriber Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (such registered offering, a “Piggyback Registration”). Subject to Section 5(a)(ii)(1), the Issuer shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and, if applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of such Piggyback Registration to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Eligible Subscriber Holders pursuant to this Section 5(a)(ii) to be included therein on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Issuer included in such registered offering and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. The inclusion of any Eligible Subscriber Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Piggyback Registration shall be subject to such Eligible Subscriber Holder’s agreement to enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such underwritten offering.

(1) Reduction of Piggyback Registration. If the managing underwriter or underwriters in an underwritten offering that is to be a Piggyback Registration, in good faith, advises the Issuer and the Requesting Piggyback Holders pursuant to this Section 5(a)(ii) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Class A Shares or other equity securities that the Issuer desires to sell, taken together with the Class A Shares or other equity securities, if any, as to which registration or a registered offering has been demanded or requested by Requesting A&R Holders, Requesting Eligible Subscriber Holders, including pursuant to Section 5(a)(ii), and Requesting Other Holders, as applicable, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:

15

16

(2) Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any Eligible Subscriber Holder of Registrable Securities (other than a Demanding Holder, whose right to withdraw from an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, and related obligations, shall be governed by Section 5(a)(i)(2)) shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Issuer and the underwriter or underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Piggyback Registration or, in the case of a Piggyback Registration pursuant to a shelf registration, the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement with respect to such Piggyback Registration used for marketing such transaction. The Issuer (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a registration statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration (which, in no circumstance, shall include the Registration Statement) at any time prior to the effectiveness of such registration statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5 (other than Section 5(a)(i)(2)), the Issuer shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this Section 5(a)(ii)(2).

17

(3) Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, subject to Section 5(a)(i)(2), any Piggyback Registration effected pursuant to Section 5(a)(ii) hereof shall not be counted as a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown under Section 5(a)(i) hereof.

(4) Subscriber Information. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5 to the contrary, Subscriber may not participate in any underwritten offering pursuant to this Section 5(a)(ii) unless Subscriber (x) agrees to sell Subscriber’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Issuer and (y) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

(iii) Market Stand-off. In connection with any underwritten offering of Class A Shares or other equity securities of the Issuer (other than a Block Trade (as defined below)), each Eligible Subscriber Holder that is an executive officer or director of the Issuer or the beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding Class A Shares of the Issuer, agrees not to, and to execute a customary lock-up agreement (in each case on substantially the same terms and conditions as all such Eligible Subscriber Holders) in favor of the underwriters to not, sell or dispose of any Class A Shares or other equity securities of the Issuer (other than those included in such offering), without the prior written consent of the Issuer, during the ninety (90)-day period (or such shorter time agreed to by the managing underwriters) beginning on the date of pricing of such offering, except as expressly permitted by such lock-up agreement and in the event the managing underwriters otherwise agree by written consent.

(iv) Block Trades. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5, but subject to Section 5(c), at any time and from time to time when an effective Registration Statement is on file with the Commission, if a Demanding Holder wishes to engage in a Block Trade that includes either (x) Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by such Demanding Holder with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed $100 million, or (y) all remaining Registrable Securities held by such Demanding Holder, then such Demanding Holder only needs to notify the Issuer of the Block Trade at least five (5) business days prior to the day such offering is to commence and the Issuer shall as expeditiously as possible use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade; provided that the Demanding Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities wishing to engage in the Block Trade shall use commercially reasonable efforts to work with the Issuer and any underwriters prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the registration statement, prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade. Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with a Block Trade, any Demanding Holder initiating such Block Trade shall have the right to submit a Withdrawal Notice to the Issuer and the underwriter or underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Block Trade. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5(a), the Issuer shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in

18

connection with a Block Trade prior to its withdrawal under this Section 5(a)(iv). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 5(a)(ii) shall not apply to a Block Trade initiated by a Demanding Holder. The Demanding Holder in a Block Trade shall have the right to select the underwriters for such Block Trade (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks). The Eligible Subscriber Holder(s) in the aggregate may demand no more than two (2) Block Trades pursuant to this Section 5(a)(iv) in any twelve (12) month period. For the avoidance of doubt, any Block Trade effected pursuant to this Section 5(a)(iv) shall not be counted as a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to Section 5(a)(i) hereof.

(v) All Registration Expenses shall be borne by the Issuer. It is acknowledged that Subscriber shall bear, with respect to Subscriber’s Registrable Securities being sold, all underwriters’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing Subscriber.

(vi) As used in this Section 5, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(1) “A&R Registration Rights Agreement” has the meaning set forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger.

(2) “Block Trade” means an underwritten registered offering not involving a “roadshow,” commonly known as a “block trade.”

(3) “Eligible Subscriber” means a subscriber that, together with its Affiliates (as defined herein), purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or any Other Subscription Agreement, Class A Shares with an aggregate purchase price in excess of $100 million.

(4) “Registration Expenses” shall mean the out-of-pocket expenses of a Registration, including, without limitation, the following: (A) all registration and filing fees (including fees with respect to filings required to be made with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.) and any national securities exchange on which the Class A Shares are then listed; (B) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel for the underwriters in connection with blue sky qualifications of Registrable Securities); (C) printing, messenger, telephone and delivery expenses; (D) reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Issuer; (E) reasonable fees and disbursements of all independent registered public accountants of the Issuer incurred specifically in connection with such registration; and (F) reasonable fees and expenses of one (1) legal counsel selected by the Demanding Holders in an underwritten Offering.

19

(5) “Registrable Security” shall mean any of the Acquired Shares until the earliest to occur of: (A) a registration statement with respect to the sale of any such Acquired Shares shall have become effective under the Securities Act and such securities shall have been sold, transferred, disposed of or exchanged in accordance with such registration statement; (B) any such Acquired Shares shall have ceased to be outstanding; (C) any such Acquired Shares have been sold without registration pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission); and (D) any such Acquired Shares have been sold to, or through, a broker, dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or other public securities transaction.]¹

(b) Registration Cooperation. At its expense the Issuer shall:

(i) except for such times as the Issuer is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration, and any qualification, exemption or compliance under state securities laws which the Issuer determines to obtain, continuously effective with respect to Subscriber, and to keep the applicable Registration Statement or any subsequent shelf registration statement free of any material misstatements or omissions, until the earlier of the following: (i) Subscriber ceases to hold any Registrable Securities, and (ii) two (2) years from the Effectiveness Date; provided that the provisions under Section 5(a)(i)-(iv) of this Subscription Agreement shall terminate on the first anniversary of the Merger Closing Date. The period of time during which the Issuer is required hereunder to keep a Registration Statement effective is referred to herein as the “Registration Period”;

(ii) advise Subscriber within two (2) business days:

(2) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information;

(3) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;

(4) of the receipt by the Issuer of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Acquired Shares included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and

20

(5) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Issuer shall not, when so advising Subscriber of such events, provide Subscriber with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Issuer other than to the extent that providing notice to Subscriber of the occurrence of the events listed in (1) through (5) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding the Issuer;

(iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;

(iv) upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in Section 5(b)(ii)(5), except for such times as the Issuer is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Acquired Shares included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(v) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Acquired Shares to be listed on each national securities exchange (within the meaning of the Exchange Act), if any, on which the Class A Shares issued by the Issuer have been listed;

(vi) use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Acquired Shares as required hereby;

(vii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow Subscriber to review disclosure regarding Subscriber in the Registration Statement; and

21

satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Eligible Subscriber Holders and the applicable broker, placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the underwriters, if any; (2) request the Issuer’s counsel to provide an opinion and negative assurance letter with respect to such offering addressed to the participating Eligible Subscriber Holders and to the broker, placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the offering in respect of which such opinion is being given as the participating Eligible Subscriber Holders, or such broker, placement agent, sales agent or underwriters, may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Eligible Subscriber Holders and the applicable broker, placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the underwriters, if any; (3) enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement or distribution agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter, broker, placement agent or sales agent of such offering or sale; (4) in the case of an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, use its reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Issuer to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the managing underwriter; and (5) otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the participating Eligible Subscriber Holders and the broker, placement agent or sales agent, if any, and underwriters, if any, as applicable, in connection with such offering or sale.]²

(c) Suspension Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, the Issuer shall be entitled to delay or postpone the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and any other registration statement referred to in this Section 5, and from time to time to require Subscriber not to sell under the Registration Statement or such other registration statement, as applicable, or to suspend the effectiveness thereof, if the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by the Issuer or its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event the Issuer’s board of directors reasonably believes, upon the advice of legal counsel, would require additional disclosure by the Issuer in the Registration Statement of material information that the Issuer has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the non-disclosure of which in the Registration Statement would be expected, in the reasonable determination of the Issuer’s board of directors, upon the advice of legal counsel, to cause the Registration Statement or such other registration statement, as applicable, to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, however, that the Issuer may not delay or suspend a particular registration statement on more than two (2) occasions, for more than sixty (60) consecutive calendar days, or more than ninety (90) total calendar days, in each case during any twelve-month period. Upon receipt of any written notice from the Issuer of the happening of any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration Statement or such other registration statement, as applicable, is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or such other registration statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, Subscriber agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Acquired Shares under the Registration

22

Statement or such other registration statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until Subscriber receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which the Issuer agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Issuer that it may resume such offers and sales, and (ii) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by the Issuer unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by the Issuer, Subscriber will deliver to the Issuer or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Acquired Shares in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Acquired Shares shall not apply (i) to the extent Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (a) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (b) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (ii) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.

(d) Opt-Out Notice. Subscriber may deliver written notice (including via email in accordance with Section 9(l) of this Subscription Agreement) (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the Issuer requesting that Subscriber not receive notices from the Issuer otherwise required by this Section 5; provided, however, that Subscriber may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from Subscriber (unless subsequently revoked), (i) the Issuer shall not deliver any such notices to Subscriber and Subscriber shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with any such notice and (ii) each time prior to Subscriber’s intended use of an effective registration statement, Subscriber will notify the Issuer in writing at least two (2) business days in advance of such intended use, and if a notice of a Suspension Event was previously delivered (or would have been delivered but for the provisions of this Section 5(d)) and the related suspension period remains in effect, the Issuer will so notify Subscriber, within one (1) business day of Subscriber’s notification to the Issuer, by delivering to Subscriber a copy of such notice of Suspension Event that would have been provided, and thereafter will provide Subscriber with the related notice of the conclusion of such Suspension Event immediately upon its availability, and Subscriber shall comply with any restrictions on using such Registration Statement during such Suspension Event.

(e) Subscriber Indemnification. The Issuer agrees to indemnify and hold Subscriber, each person, if any, who controls Subscriber within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of Subscriber within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, and each underwriter pursuant to the applicable underwriting agreement with such underwriter, and each broker, placement agent or sales agent to or through which Subscriber effects or executes the resale of any Acquired Shares (collectively, the “Subscriber Indemnified Parties”), harmless against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) incurred by Subscriber directly that are caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any other registration statement which covers Registrable Securities of Subscriber (including, in each case, the prospectus contained therein) or any amendment thereof (including the prospectus contained therein) or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made), not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to the Issuer by Subscriber expressly for use therein.

23

(f) Issuer Indemnification. Subscriber agrees to, severally and not jointly with any other accredited investor that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, each person, if any, who controls the Issuer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of the Issuer within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, and each underwriter pursuant to the applicable underwriting agreement with such underwriter, and each broker, placement agent or sales agent to or through which Subscriber effects or executes the resale of any Acquired Shares (collectively, the “Issuer Indemnified Parties”), harmless against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) incurred by the Issuer directly that are caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any other registration statement which covers Registrable Securities of Subscriber (including, in each case, the prospectus contained therein) or any amendment thereof (including the prospectus contained therein) or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), not misleading, insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to the Issuer by Subscriber expressly for use therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subscriber’s indemnification obligations under this Section 5(f), in the aggregate, will not exceed the Purchase Price.

6. Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Agreement and Plan of Merger is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) if any of the conditions to the Subscription Closing set forth in Section 2 of this Subscription Agreement are not satisfied on or prior to the Subscription Closing and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated at the Subscription Closing, (d) the Outside Date (as defined in the Agreement and Plan of Merger and as may be extended as described therein) if the Merger Closing has not occurred on or before such date and (e) the first anniversary of the date of this Subscription Agreement if the Merger Closing and the Subscription Closing have not occurred on or before such first anniversary; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. The Issuer shall promptly notify Subscriber of the termination of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (other than such a termination as a result of the Merger Closing thereunder).

7. Trust Account Waiver. Subscriber acknowledges that the Issuer is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Issuer and one or more businesses. Subscriber further acknowledges that, as described in the Issuer’s prospectus

24

relating to its initial public offering dated June 7, 2018, available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of the Issuer’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of the Issuer’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of the Issuer, its public stockholders and the underwriters of the Issuer’s initial public offering. For and in consideration of the Issuer entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subscriber, on behalf of itself and its affiliates and representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind they have or may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and agrees not to seek recourse or make or bring any action, suit, claim or other proceeding against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Acquired Shares, regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that it shall not have any redemption rights with respect to the Acquired Shares pursuant to the Issuer’s organizational documents in connection with the Transactions or any other business combination, any subsequent liquidation of the Trust Account or the Issuer or otherwise. In the event Subscriber has any claim against the Issuer as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Acquired Shares, it shall pursue such claim solely against the Issuer and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the Trust Account or any monies or other assets in the Trust Account; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to limit Subscriber’s right, title, interest or claim to the Trust Account by virtue of Subscriber’s record or beneficial ownership of Class A Shares of the Issuer acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

(Please check the applicable box)

SUBSCRIBER:

an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Issuer or acting on behalf of an affiliate of the Issuer.

Rule 501(a), in relevant part, states that an “accredited investor” shall mean any person who comes within any of the below listed categories, or who the issuer reasonably believes comes within any of the below listed categories, at the time of the sale of the securities to that person. Subscriber has indicated, by marking and initialing the appropriate box below, the provision(s) below which apply to Subscriber and under which Subscriber accordingly qualifies as an “accredited investor.”

Exhibit A

NO TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE ACQUIRED SHARES OR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION THEREIN MAY BE MADE EXCEPT (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “ACT”) OR (B) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND, IN THE CASE OF CLAUSE (B), UNLESS, IF THE ISSUER REQUESTS, THE ISSUER RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE ACT.

Any transferee of the Acquired Shares or any interest therein, by its acceptance thereof, shall be deemed to have made the representations set forth in Section 4 of the Subscription Agreement (other than the representations set forth in Section 4(f), the first two sentences of Section 4(j) and Section 4(p)). The Issuer shall not be required to register the transfer of any Acquired Shares to any transferee unless the Issuer receives from the proposed transferee a written instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer in which such transferee makes the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4 of the Subscription Agreement (other than the representations set forth in Section 4(f), the first two sentences of Section 4(j) and Section 4(p)) and, if the Issuer so requests, an opinion of counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer to the effect that registration under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such transfer; provided, that no opinion of counsel will be required for a pledge of the Acquired Shares if the Issuer receives a representation from the pledgor and pledgee that the pledge is a bona fide pledge and, in the event that the pledgee acquires the shares that are the subject of the pledge, the pledgee agrees to the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4 of the Subscription Agreement. The foregoing shall not apply to any sale of the Acquired Shares made in accordance with Rule 144; provided, that the transferor of the Acquired Shares provides to the Issuer such representations with respect to compliance as is reasonably requested by the Issuer.
