c. This Subscription Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the same by Subscriber, this Subscription Agreement shall constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors generally and by the availability of equitable remedies.

The execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement, the issuance and sale of the Subscribed Shares and the compliance by the Company with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of the Company pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company is subject; (ii) the organizational documents of the Company; or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties that, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), would reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect or have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the issuance and sale of the Subscribed Shares.
5 |

f. The Company is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization (including The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”)) or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Subscribed Shares), other than (i) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (ii) the filing of a Notice of Exempt Offering of Securities on Form D with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), (iii) the filings required in accordance with Section 8(p) of this Subscription Agreement; (iv) those required by Nasdaq, including with respect to obtaining shareholder approval, (v) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Transaction Agreements, and (vi) the failure of which to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have a Company Material Adverse Effect or have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the issuance and sale of the Subscribed Shares.

The Company has timely filed each report, statement, schedule, prospectus, and registration statement that the Company was required to file with the Commission since its inception. There are no material outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters from the Commission Staff with respect to any of the SEC Documents.

l. The issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and are listed for trading on Nasdaq under the symbol “EAGL.” There is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company by Nasdaq or the Commission with respect to any intention by such entity to deregister the Class A Ordinary Shares or prohibit or terminate the listing of the Class A Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq. The Company has taken no action that is designed to terminate the registration of the Class A Ordinary Shares under the Exchange Act.
m. Upon consummation of the Transaction, the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock will be registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and will be listed for trading on Nasdaq.

o. Neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf has engaged or will engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in connection with any offer or sale of the Subscribed Shares.
p. Except in each case as would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect, (i) all material Tax Returns (as defined in the Transaction Agreements) required to be filed by or with respect to the Company and its subsidiaries have been duly and timely filed (taking into account extension of time for filing) with the appropriate governmental entity, (ii) all such Tax Returns were true, correct and complete in all material respects, (iii) the Company and its subsidiaries have paid all Taxes (as defined in the Transaction Agreements) and other assessments due, whether or not disputed, and (iv) the Company and its subsidiaries do not have any liabilities for Taxes of any other person or entity by contract, as a transferee or successor, under U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or analogous state, county, local or foreign provision or otherwise.

n. Such Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent the Subscribed Shares are not included in the registration statement on Form S-4 filed by the Company in connection with the Transaction (the “Form S-4”), the certificate or book-entry position representing the Subscribed Shares will bear or reflect, as applicable, a legend substantially similar to the following:

5. Registration Rights.
a. In connection with the Transactions, the Company will file the Form S-4, which will register the issuance of Common Stock in exchange for all outstanding Ordinary Shares (including the Subscribed Shares).
b. If the Subscribed Shares are not included in the Form S-4 at the time it becomes effective, then the Company shall, within thirty (30) calendar days after the Closing (the “Filing Deadline”), use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission a registration statement registering the resale of the Subscribed Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and 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) the 60th calendar day (or 90th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the earlier of (A) the filing of the Registration Statement and (B) Filing Deadline and (ii) the 10th Business Day 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 date, the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, however, that the Company’s obligations to include a Subscriber’s Subscribed Shares in the Registration Statement are contingent upon such Subscriber furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding such Subscriber, the securities of the Company held by such Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Subscribed Shares as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of the Subscribed Shares, and 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. Not less than three (3) Business Days prior to filing the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), the Company will provide each Subscriber an opportunity to review and comment on the disclosure regarding such Subscriber. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the continuous effectiveness of the Registration Statement with respect to a Subscriber’s Subscribed Shares until the earlier of (i) date on which such Subscriber has notified the Company that such securities have actually been sold and (ii) the date which is five (5) years after the Closing; provided that, subject to clause (iii) of the following paragraph (c), 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 Company’s 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 Company’s 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”). Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding the Company) of the happening of any Suspension Event 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 Subscriber agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Subscribed Shares under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until such Subscriber 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 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 unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by the Company, each Subscriber will deliver to the Company or, in such Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares in such Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares shall not apply (i) to the extent such 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.

c. If: (i) the Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to the Filing Deadline, (ii) the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission (or otherwise does not become effective) for any reason on or prior to the Effectiveness Deadline, or (iii) after the effective date of the Registration Statement, (A) such Registration Statement ceases for any reason (including without limitation by reason of a stop order, or the Company’s failure to update the Registration Statement), to remain continuously effective as to all Subscribed Shares be effective or (B) the Subscribers are not permitted to utilize the prospectus contained therein to resell such shares, in each case of (A) and (B), for a period of not more than thirty (30) consecutive days or for a total of not more than ninety (90) days in any twelve (12) month period (any such failure or breach in clauses (i) through (iii) above being referred to as an “Event,” and the date on which such Event occurs being referred to as an “Event Date”), then in addition to any other rights the Subscribers may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Subscriber an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty (“Liquidated Damages”), equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Subscriber pursuant to the Subscription Agreement for any unregistered Subscribed Shares held by such Subscriber on the Event Date. If the Company fails to pay any Liquidated Damages pursuant to this Section 5(c) in full within five (5) Business Days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 1.0% per month (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Subscriber, accruing daily from the date such Liquidated Damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The Liquidated Damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event, except in the case of the first Event Date. With respect to a Subscriber, the Effectiveness Deadline for a Registration Statement shall be extended without default or Liquidated Damages hereunder in the event that the Company’s failure to obtain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on a timely basis results from the failure of such Subscriber to timely provide the Company with information requested by the Company and necessary to complete the Registration Statement in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act (in which case the Effectiveness Deadline would be extended with respect to Subscribed Shares held by such Subscriber).
d. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Subscriber (to the extent a seller under the Registration Statement), the officers, directors, agents, partners, members, managers, stockholders, affiliates, employees and investment advisers of such Subscriber, each person who controls such Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, stockholders, agents, affiliates, employees and investment advisers of each such controlling person, 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 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 5, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based solely upon information regarding a Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by such Subscriber expressly for use therein. The Company shall notify each Subscriber promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 5 of which the Company is aware. 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 Subscribed Shares by Subscriber.
12 |
e. Each Subscriber shall, severally and not jointly with any other Subscriber, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling persons, 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 solely upon information regarding a Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by such Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of a Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Subscriber upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
f. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Sections 5(b) through 5(d) hereof shall have no effect if the Subscribed Shares are included in the Form S-4 at the time it becomes effective.
6. Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect with respect to a Subscriber, 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 earlier to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreements is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of the Company and such Subscriber to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) if, on the Transaction Closing Date, any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 2 of this Subscription Agreement have not been satisfied as of the time required hereunder to be so satisfied or waived by the party entitled to grant such waiver and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated or (d) March 15, 2019, if the Closing has not occurred by such date; 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 Company shall notify each Subscriber of the termination of the Transaction Agreements promptly after the termination thereof.
7. Trust Account Waiver. Each Subscriber hereby acknowledges that the Company has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders and certain other parties (including the underwriters of the IPO). For and in consideration of the Company entering into this Subscription Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Subscriber hereby (i) agrees that it does not now and shall not at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any assets held in the Trust Account arising from or in connection with this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, or any discussions in connection therewith, (ii) agrees that it shall not make any claim against the Trust Account arising from or in connection with this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, or any discussions in connection therewith, regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Released Claims”), (iii) irrevocably waives any Released Claims that it may have against the Trust Account now or in the future, and (iv) will not seek recourse against the Trust Account in respect of any Released Claims.

d. All the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.

The Company shall, by 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first (1st) business day immediately following the date of this Subscription Agreement, issue one or more press releases or file with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (collectively, the “Disclosure Document”) disclosing, to the extent not previously publicly disclosed, all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby (and by the Other Subscription Agreements), the Transaction and any other material, nonpublic information that the Company has provided to each Subscriber at any time prior to the filing of the Disclosure Document. From and after the issuance of the Disclosure Document, each Subscriber shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information received from the Company or any of its officers, directors or employees or the Placement Agents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Subscriber or any affiliate or investment adviser of any Subscriber, or include the name of any Subscriber or any affiliate or investment adviser of any Subscriber in any press release or in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or trading market, without the prior written consent (including by e-mail) of such Subscriber, except as required by the federal securities laws, rules or regulations and to the extent such disclosure is required by other laws, rules or regulations, at the request of the staff of the Commission or regulatory agency or under Nasdaq regulations, in which case the Company shall provide such Subscriber with prior written notice (including by e-mail) of such permitted disclosure, and shall reasonably consult with such Subscriber regarding such disclosure.

Any restrictive legend described in Section 4(n) above on a certificate or book-entry position representing the Subscribed Shares shall promptly be removed and the Company shall promptly issue shares without such restrictive legend or any other restrictive legend to the holder of the applicable Subscribed Shares upon which it is stamped or issue to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at DTC, if such Subscribed Shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or pursuant to the Registration Statement.
r. The Company shall pay the reasonable legal fees and expenses of one counsel to the Subscribers, incurred by such Subscribers in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in an amount not to exceed $5,000, which amount shall be paid directly by the Company to such counsel at the Closing.
s. The obligations of each 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 no Subscriber shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement or any other investor under the Other Subscription Agreements. The decision of each Subscriber to purchase Subscribed Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement has been made by such 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 Company or any of its subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any other Subscriber or investor or by any agent or employee of any other Subscriber or investor, and no Subscriber and none of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other Subscriber or 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 any Subscriber or investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Subscribers and other investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Subscribers and other investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements. Each Subscriber acknowledges that no other Subscriber has acted as agent for such Subscriber in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Subscriber will be acting as agent of such Subscriber in connection with monitoring its investment in the Subscribed Shares or enforcing its rights under this Subscription Agreement. Each Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Subscription Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Subscriber or investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Subscription Agreement is between the Company and a Subscriber, solely, and not between the Company and the Subscribers collectively and not between and among the Subscribers.
