(j) Commence liquidation of the Trust Account only after receipt of and only in accordance with the terms of a letter (“Termination Letter”), in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as either Exhibit B, Exhibit C, Exhibit D or Exhibit E, signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, and complete the liquidation of the Trust Account and disburse the Property in the Trust Account (which disbursement shall include, in the event of an Acquisition Transaction (as hereafter defined), Post-Acquisition Tender Offer (as hereinafter defined) or a trust liquidation in the event the Company does not commence a Post-Acquisition Tender Offer within 30 days of the consummation of the Acquisition Transaction as required by its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, payment of the Deferred Compensation to the Representative) only as directed in the Termination Letter and the other documents referred to therein.  The Trustee understands and agrees that, except as provided in this paragraph and paragraphs 1(i), 1(k) and 6(a) hereof, disbursements from the Trust Account shall be made only pursuant to a duly executed Termination Letter, together with the other documents referenced herein.  For purposes of this Agreement, (i) a “Acquisition Transaction” shall mean an acquisition through a merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase or similar acquisition transaction of one or more operating businesses, and (ii) a “Post-Acquisition Tender Offer” shall mean an issuer tender offer for all IPO Shares following the consummation of an Acquisition Transaction where the Company has elected to grant Public Shareholders their redemption rights by means of such issuer tender offer; and

(l) Permit or effect no distribution from the Trust Account except in accordance with Sections 1(i), 1(j), 1(k) and 6(a).

(d) Within five business days after the Representative’s over-allotment option (or any unexercised portion thereof) expires or is exercised in full, provide the Trustee notice in writing (with a copy to the Representative) of the total amount of the Deferred Compensation, which shall in no event be less than $[_____]; and

 

(e) In connection with a vote of the Company’s shareholders regarding a Acquisition Transaction, if any, provide to the Trustee an affidavit or certificate of a firm regularly engaged in the business of soliciting proxies and tabulating shareholder votes verifying the vote of the Company’s shareholders and the Company’s Public Shareholders regarding such Acquisition Transaction.

 

3. Limitations of Liability.  The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability to:

(b) Institute any proceeding for the collection of any principal and income arising from, or institute, appear in or defend any proceeding of any kind with respect to, any of the Property unless and until it shall have received written instructions from the Company given as provided herein to do so and the Company shall have advanced or guaranteed to it funds sufficient to pay any expenses incident thereto;

(f) The other parties hereto or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Trustee may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Trustee), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained) which is believed by the Trustee, in good faith, to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons.  The Trustee shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement or any of the terms hereof, unless evidenced by a written instrument delivered to the Trustee signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Trustee are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto;

 

(g) Verify the correctness of the information set forth in the Registration Statement or to confirm or assure that any acquisition made by the Company or any other action taken by it is as contemplated by the Registration Statement, unless an officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof, or written notice of such event is sent to the Trustee or as otherwise required under Section 1(j) hereof; and

 

 

 

(h) Pay any taxes on behalf of the Trust Account (it being expressly understood that, as set forth in Section 1(i), if there is any income tax obligation relating to the income of the Property in the Trust Account, then, at the written instruction of the Company, the Trustee shall make available by check or in cash for transfer by account debit or wire transfer directly to the taxing authorities designated by the Company, the amount indicated by the Company as owing to each such taxing authority).

 

4. Certain Rights Of Trustee.

 

(a) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or opinion of counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or opinion of counsel. The Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice of such counsel or any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

 

(b) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

 

(c) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement.

 

(d) The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Agreement; it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Trust Account. Notwithstanding the effective date of this Agreement or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for any act or event relating to this Agreement or the transactions related thereto which occur prior to the date of this Agreement, and shall have no contractual obligations to the Beneficiaries until the date of this Agreement.

 

5. No Right of Set-Off.   The Trustee waives any right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind that the Trustee may have against the Property held in the Trust Account.  In the event that the Trustee has a claim against the Company under this Agreement, including, without limitation, under Section 2(b), the Trustee will pursue such claim solely against the Company and not against the Property held in the Trust Account.

 

6. Termination.  This Agreement shall terminate as follows:

 

(a) If the Trustee gives written notice to the Company that it desires to resign under this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to locate a successor trustee.  At such time that the Company notifies the Trustee that a successor trustee has been appointed by the Company and has agreed to become subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee shall transfer the management of the Trust Account to the successor trustee, including but not limited to the transfer of copies of the reports and statements relating to the Trust Account, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate; provided, however, that, in the event that the Company does not locate a successor trustee within [ninety] days of receipt of the resignation notice from the Trustee, the Trustee may submit an application to have the Property deposited with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and upon such deposit, the Trustee shall be immune from any liability whatsoever that arises due to any actions or omissions to act by any party after such deposit; or

 

 

 

(b) At such time that the Trustee has completed the liquidation of the Trust Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 1(j) hereof, and distributed the Property in accordance with the provisions of the Termination Letter, this Agreement shall terminate except with respect to Section 2(b).

 

7. Miscellaneous.

 

(a) The Company and the Trustee will each restrict access to confidential information relating to such security procedures to authorized persons.  Each party must notify the other party immediately if it has reason to believe unauthorized persons may have obtained access to such information, or of any change in its authorized personnel.  In executing funds transfers, the Trustee will rely upon account numbers or other identifying numbers of a Beneficiary, Beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank, rather than names.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any loss, liability or expense resulting from any error in an account number or other identifying number, provided it has accurately transmitted the numbers provided.

 

(b) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction.  It may be executed in several counterparts, each one of which shall constitute an original, and together shall constitute but one instrument.

 

(c) This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.  This Agreement or any provision hereof may only be changed, amended or modified by a writing signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no such change, amendment or modification (other than to correct a typographical or similar technical error) may be made to Sections 1(i), 1(j), 1(k) and 1(l) hereof without the consent of the holders of 80% of the IPO Shares, it being the specific intention of the parties hereto that each Public Shareholder is and shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Section 7(c) with the same right and power to enforce this Section 7(c) as either of the parties hereto.  For purposes of this Section 7(c), the “consent of the holders of 80% of the IPO Shares” shall mean receipt by the Trustee of a certificate from an entity certifying that (i) such entity regularly engages in the business of serving as inspector of elections for companies whose securities are publicly traded, and (ii) either (a) the holders of record of 80% of the IPO Shares of record as of a record date established in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), have voted in favor of such amendment or modification or (b) the holders of record of 80% of the IPO Shares of record as of a record date established in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL have delivered to such entity a signed writing approving such amendment or modification.

 

(d) As to any claim, cross-claim or counterclaim in any way relating to this Agreement, each party waives the right to trial by jury.

 

(e) The parties hereto consent to the jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for purposes of resolving any disputes hereunder.

 

 

 

(f) Any notice, consent or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by express mail or similar private courier service, by certified mail (return receipt requested), by hand delivery or by facsimile transmission:
