MedWorth Acquisition Corp.

999 Brickell Avenue, Suite 800

Miami, FL 33131

 

Gentlemen:

 

MedWorth Acquisition Corp. (“Corporation”), a blank check company formed for the purpose of acquiring one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”), intends to register its common stock, par value $.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), in connection with its initial public offering (“IPO”).

 

The undersigned hereby commits to purchase an aggregate of _________ shares the “Sponsor Shares”) of the Corporation’s Common Stock at a price of $8.00 per share. For each Sponsor Share purchased by the undersigned, the undersigned shall receive one-half (1/2) of an additional share of Common Stock (the “Founder Shares”) from one of the officers or directors of the Corporation at no additional cost to the undersigned. The undersigned will be required to purchase an even number of Sponsor Shares.

 

On or prior to the date the Corporation commences its “road shows” with respect to the IPO, the undersigned will cause the purchase price for the Sponsor Shares to be delivered to Broad and Cassel (“B&C”), counsel for the Corporation, by wire transfer as set forth in the instructions attached as Exhibit A to hold in [an interest bearing][a non-interest bearing] account until the Corporation consummates the IPO, together with an originally executed Form W-9. The Corporation shall provide the undersigned with not less than three (3) business days’ notice of the date upon which it is expected to commence its road shows, and thus the date the purchase price for the Sponsor Shares is due and payable.

 

The purchase and issuance of the Founder Shares and Sponsor Shares shall occur just prior to the consummation of the IPO. Just prior to the consummation of the IPO, B&C shall [(i)] deposit $8.00 per Sponsor Share, without interest or deduction, into the trust fund established by the Corporation for the benefit of the Corporation’s public stockholders (“Trust Account”) as described in the Corporation’s registration statement filed in connection with the IPO (“Registration Statement”), [and (ii) deliver all interest earned on the purchase price for the Sponsor Shares to the [undersigned][Corporation]]. If the Corporation does not complete the IPO within three (3) months from the date it commences its road shows with respect to the IPO, at the request of the undersigned, such purchase price [(plus interest earned thereon)][less interest earned thereon] will be returned to the undersigned.

 

Each of the Corporation and the undersigned acknowledges and agrees that B&C is serving hereunder solely as a convenience to the parties to facilitate the purchase of the Sponsor Shares and B&C’s sole obligation under this letter agreement is to act with respect to holding and disbursing the purchase price for the Sponsor Shares as described above. B&C shall not be liable to the Corporation or the undersigned or any other person or entity in respect of any act or failure to act hereunder or otherwise in connection with performing its services hereunder unless B&C has acted in a manner constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Corporation shall indemnify B&C against any claim made against it (including reasonable attorney’s fees) by reason of it acting or failing to act in connection with this letter agreement except as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. B&C may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any written notice, instruction or request furnished to it hereunder and believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.
