7. Additional Subscriber Agreement. The undersigned hereby agrees that, from the date of this Subscription Agreement and until the Subscription Closing, no person or entity, while acting in connection with this Transaction and on behalf of the undersigned or any of its controlled affiliates or pursuant to any understanding in connection with this Transaction with the undersigned or any of its controlled affiliates, will engage in any Short Sales with respect to securities of the Company or the SPAC.

8. Registration Rights.
a. In the event that the Shares are not registered in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, the Company agrees that, within thirty (30) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction (the Filing Deadline), the Company will file with the Commission (at the Companys sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the Registration Statement) registering the resale of the Shares, and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) 60 calendar days (or 120 calendar days if the Commission notifies the Company that it will review the Registration Statement) following the Filing Deadline, and (ii) five (5) business days after the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be reviewed or will not be subject to further review (such earlier date, the Effectiveness Date); provided, however, that the Companys obligations to include the Shares in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the undersigned furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding the undersigned, the securities of the Company held by the undersigned and the intended method of disposition of the Shares as shall be reasonably requested in writing by the Company to effect the registration of the Shares, and the undersigned shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that the Company shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the use of the Registration Statement as permitted hereunder; provided, further, however, that the undersigned shall not in connection with the foregoing be required to execute any lock-up or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restriction on the ability to transfer the Shares. With respect to the information to be provided by the undersigned pursuant to this Section 8, the Company shall request such information at least ten (10) business days prior to the anticipated initial filing date of the Registration Statement. The Company will provide a draft of the Registration Statement to the undersigned for review at least two (2) business days in advance of its anticipated initial filing date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents the Company from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Shares by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Shares as is permitted by the Commission. In such event, the number of Shares to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders, and as promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional Shares under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the Company shall file a new Registration Statement to register such Shares not included in the initial Registration
18
Statement and cause such Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable consistent with the terms of this Section 8. In no event shall the undersigned be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless in response to a comment or request from the staff of the Commission or another regulatory agency; provided, however, that if the Commission requests that the undersigned be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the undersigned will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the continuous effectiveness of the Registration Statement until the earliest of (i) the date on which the Shares subscribed for by the undersigned hereunder may be resold without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(2) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable), (ii) the date on which all Shares subscribed for by the undersigned hereunder have actually been sold and (iii) the date which is three (3) years after the initial Registration Statement filed hereunder is declared effective (the Effectiveness Period). For as long as the Registration Statement shall remain effective pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable the undersigned to resell the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 of the Securities Act (when Rule 144 of the Securities Act becomes available to the undersigned), as applicable, qualify the Shares for listing on NYSE, Nasdaq or other applicable stock exchange on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed, and update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include the Shares. For purposes of clarification, any failure by the Company to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Deadline or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness Date shall not otherwise relieve the Company of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement set forth in this Section 8. The undersigned shall not be entitled to use the Registration Statement for an underwritten offering of Shares and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall not have any obligation to prepare any prospectus supplement, participate in any due diligence, execute any agreements or certificates or deliver legal opinions or obtain comfort letters in connection with any sales of the Shares under the Registration Statement. For purposes of this Section 8, Shares shall mean, as of any date of determination, the Shares acquired by the undersigned pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and any other equity security issued or issuable with respect to such Shares by way of stock split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, replacement or similar event, and undersigned shall include any affiliate of the undersigned to which the rights under this Section 8 have been duly assigned.
b. In the case of the registration, qualification, exemption or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall inform the undersigned as to the status of such registration, qualification, exemption and compliance. At its expense the Company shall:
i. | advise the undersigned within two (2) business days: |
19
(1) when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;
(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 Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Shares included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
(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 Company shall not, when so advising the undersigned of such events, provide the undersigned with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company other than to the extent that providing notice to the undersigned of the occurrence of the events listed in (1) through (5) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding the Company and the undersigned is notified that such events are material, nonpublic information at the time of notification;
ii. | use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable; |
iii. | upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in Section 8.b.i(5) above, except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Company 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 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; |
20
iv. | use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Shares to be listed on each securities exchange or market, if any, on which the Ordinary Shares have been listed; |
v. | use its commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports and other materials required to be filed by the Exchange Act until the expiry of the Effectiveness Period; and |
vi. | if in the opinion of counsel to the Company, it is then permissible to remove the restrictive legend from the Shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, then at Subscribers request, the Company will request its transfer agent to remove the legend set forth in Section 6.c. above. In the event that the undersigned and its broker(s) provide any certifications requested by the Company or its counsel, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the legend removal referenced above apply to all shares held by the Subscriber in a single transaction. |
c. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to delay or postpone the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, and from time to time to require any Subscriber not to sell under the Registration Statement or to suspend the effectiveness thereof, if the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by the Company or its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event, the Companys board of directors reasonably believes, upon the advice of legal counsel, would require additional disclosure by the Company in the Registration Statement of material information that the Company 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 Companys board of directors, upon the advice of legal counsel, to cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (each such circumstance, a Suspension Event); provided, however, that (x) the Company may not delay or suspend the Registration Statement on more than two (2) occasions, for more than sixty (60) consecutive calendar days, or for more than ninety (90) total calendar days, in each case during any twelve-month period and (y) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such registration statement available for the sale by the undersigned of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter. Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company of the happening of any Suspension Event (which notice shall not contain material non-public information) during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, each of the undersigned agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Shares under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until the undersigned receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which the Company agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective
21
amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Company 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 Company except (A) for disclosure to the undersigneds employees, agents and professional advisers who need to know such information and are obligated to keep it confidential, and (B) as otherwise required by law or subpoena. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, after the Effectiveness Date, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended Shares to a transferee of the undersigned in connection with any sale of Shares with respect to which the undersigned has entered into a contract for sale prior to the undersigneds receipt of the notice of a Suspension Event and which has not yet settled. If so directed by the Company, each of the undersigned will deliver to the Company or, in the undersigneds sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Shares in its possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Shares shall not apply (i) to the extent the undersigned 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. Subscriber may deliver written notice (including via email) (an Opt-Out Notice) to the Issuer requesting that Subscriber not receive notices from the Issuer otherwise required by this Section 8; provided, however, that Subscriber may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from Subscriber (unless and until subsequently revoked), (i) neither the SPAC nor the Company shall 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 Subscribers intended use of an effective registration statement, Subscriber will notify the SPAC or the Company, as applicable, 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 8.d) and the related suspension period remains in effect, the SPAC or the Company, as applicable will so notify Subscriber, within one (1) business day of Subscribers notification, 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. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the undersigned (to the extent a seller under the Registration Statement), the officers, directors, employees, investment advisers and agents of each of them, and each person who controls the undersigned (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) and expenses (collectively, Losses), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising
22
out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 8, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding such Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by such Subscriber expressly for use therein or such Subscriber has omitted a material fact from such information provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon a violation which occurs (A) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by a Subscriber, (B) in connection with any failure of such person to deliver or cause to be delivered a prospectus made available by the Company in a timely manner (to the extent a prospectus was required to be delivered by Subscriber under applicable law), (C) as a result of offers or sales effected by or on behalf of any person by means of a free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) that was not authorized in writing by the Company, or (D) in connection with any offers or sales effected by or on behalf of a Subscriber in violation of Section 8 hereof. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Shares by such Subscriber.
f. Each of the undersigned shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based upon information regarding such Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by such Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of any of the undersigned be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the undersigned upon the sale of the Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Shares by such Subscriber.
g. Any person entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 8 shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any persons right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying
23
party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement for which indemnification could be sought hereunder which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
h. If the indemnification provided under this Section 8 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Losses, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying partys and indemnified partys relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 8, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 8 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

e. This Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and except as otherwise expressly set forth in subsection (q) of this Section 11, nothing in this Subscription Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Subscription Agreement.

The SPAC and the Company each acknowledges that the undersigned will rely on the SPACs and the Companys acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement. Prior to the Subscription Closing, each of the parties agrees to promptly notify the other parties if (i) any of such partys acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties (other than any such representations and warranties that are qualified by materiality) made herein are no longer accurate in any material respect or (ii) any of such partys representations and warranties made herein that are qualified by materiality are no longer accurate in any respect. Each of the parties agrees that the purchase by the undersigned of Shares from the Company and the issuance of Shares by the Company to the undersigned will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein (as modified by any such notice) by such party as of the time of such subscription and/or purchase. The undersigned further acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agents are third-party beneficiaries of the representations and warranties of the undersigned contained in Sections 6.a, 6.b, 6.c, 6.f, 6.g, 6.h, 6.i., 6.o, 6.p, 6.q, 6.r, 6.s, 6.t and 6.u of this Subscription Agreement.

12. Separate Obligations. The obligations of the Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Subscriber or any other investor under the Other Subscription Agreements, and the Subscriber shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Subscriber under the Other Subscription Agreements. The decision of the Subscriber to purchase the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement has been made by the Subscriber independently of any Other Subscriber or any other investor and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the SPAC, the Company or Wallbox or any of their subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any Other Subscriber or other investor or by any agent or employee of any Other Subscriber or other investor, and neither the Subscriber nor
30
any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Other Subscriber or other investor (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein or in any Other Subscription Agreement, and no action taken by the Subscriber or any Other Subscriber or other investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Subscriber, on the one hand, and any Other Subscriber or other investor, on the other hand, as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Subscriber and any Other Subscriber or other investor are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements; provided, that it is acknowledged that the Subscriber may be under common management with one or more Other Subscribers. Subscriber acknowledges that no Other Subscriber has acted as agent for the Subscriber in connection with making its investment hereunder and no Other Subscriber will be acting as agent of the Subscriber in connection with monitoring its investment in the Shares or enforcing its rights under this Subscription Agreement.

1. We hereby declare, represent and warrant that:

(e) | the acquisition of Shares does not and will not contravene any applicable Canadian securities laws, rules or policies of the jurisdiction in which we are resident and does not trigger (i) any obligation to prepare and file a prospectus or similar document or (ii) any registration or other similar obligation on the part of any person; |
(f) | we will execute and deliver within the applicable time periods all documentation as may be required by applicable Canadian securities laws to permit the subscription for the Shares on the terms set forth herein and, if required by applicable Canadian securities laws, will execute, deliver and file or assist the Company in obtaining and filing such reports, undertakings and other documents relating to the subscription for the Shares as may be required by any applicable Canadian securities laws, securities regulator, stock exchange or other regulatory authority; and |
