This SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (this “Subscription Agreement”) is entered into on February 17, 2021, by and between Osprey Technology Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), and the subscriber party set forth on the signature page hereto (“Subscriber”).

WHEREAS, substantially concurrently with the execution of this Subscription Agreement, the Issuer is entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, by and among the Issuer, Osprey Technology Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MergerSub”), and BlackSky Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Target”) (the “Merger Agreement”), whereby MergerSub will merge with and into Target, with Target surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein (the “Transactions”);

WHEREAS, to finance a portion of the Transactions, Subscriber desires to subscribe for and purchase from the Issuer that number of shares of the Issuer’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”), set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Acquired Shares”) in a private placement for a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “Per Share Purchase Price”) and an 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 of 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);

WHEREAS, substantially concurrently with the execution of this Subscription Agreement, the Issuer is entering into: (a) separate subscription agreements with certain other investors that are existing directors or officers of, or otherwise affiliated or associated with or identified by, the Issuer or Target (the “Insider Subscription Agreements”) with an aggregate purchase price of $23,000,000 (collectively, the “Insider PIPE Investors” and, such investment, the “Insider PIPE Investment”); and (b) separate subscription agreements (the “Other Subscription Agreements”) with certain other “qualified institutional buyers” (as such term is defined under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), and institutional “accredited investors” (as such term is defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act), with an aggregate purchase price of $157,000,000 (inclusive of the Purchase Price); for a total aggregate purchase price of $180,000,000 (the “PIPE Investment”); and

WHEREAS, the aggregate amount of Class A Shares to be sold by the Issuer pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Other Subscription Agreements and the Insider Subscription Agreements equals 18,000,000 Class A Shares.

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. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Subscriber hereby agrees to subscribe for and purchase, 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”) shall occur substantially concurrent with, and be conditioned upon the prior or substantially concurrent consummation of the Transactions (the “Closing Date”). Not less than five (5) business days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, the Issuer shall provide written notice to Subscriber (the “Closing Notice”) of such anticipated Closing Date. Subscriber shall deliver to the Issuer on or before three (3) business days prior to the anticipated Closing Date (the “Funding Date”) 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, to be held by the Issuer or in escrow until the Closing Date. Not later than one (1) business day after the Closing Date, the Issuer shall deliver to Subscriber (1) the Acquired Shares in book entry form, in the name of Subscriber (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) or to a custodian designated by Subscriber, as applicable; and (2) a copy of the records of the Issuer’s transfer agent


(the “Transfer Agent”) or other evidence showing Subscriber as the owner of the Acquired Shares on and as of the Closing Date. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean a day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in New York, New York are authorized or required by law to close. In the event the Closing Date does not occur within two (2) business days after the Subscription Closing, the Issuer shall promptly (but not later than one (1) business day thereafter) 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 or share certificates shall be deemed cancelled; provided that unless this Subscription Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 6 hereof, such return of funds shall not terminate this Subscription Agreement or relieve Subscriber of its obligation to purchase the Acquired Shares at the Subscription Closing.

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

(i) (x) solely with respect to Subscriber’s obligation to close, the representations and warranties made by the Issuer, and (y) solely with respect to the Issuer’s obligation to close, the representations and warranties made by Subscriber, in each case in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date (other than 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), in each case without giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions;

(ii) there shall not be any law or order of any governmental authority having jurisdiction restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting or making illegal the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement;

(iii) (A) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction, including all necessary approvals of the Issuer’s stockholders and regulatory approvals, if any, shall have been satisfied (which shall be deemed satisfied if mutually determined by the parties to the Merger Agreement and other than those conditions under the Merger Agreement that, by their nature are to be satisfied in connection with the closing of the Transaction, including to the extent that any such condition is dependent upon the consummation of the sale, purchase and issuance of the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or the Other Subscription Agreements) or waived by the parties to the Merger Agreement as provided therein and (B) the closing of the Transaction shall be scheduled to occur concurrently with or on the same date as the Closing; and

(iv) the terms of the Merger Agreement (including the conditions thereto) shall not have been amended or waived in a manner that is materially adverse to Subscriber (in its capacity as such).

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

3. Issuer Representations and Warranties. The Issuer represents and warrants that:

(b) As of the Subscription Closing, the Acquired Shares will have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to Subscriber against full payment of the Purchase Price for the Acquired Shares in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement and registered with the Transfer Agent, the Acquired Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws or under the laws of the State of Delaware.

(c) This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Issuer and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the same by the Subscriber, is enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, arrangement, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, and (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

(d) Subject to obtaining the Required Approvals, the execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer of this Subscription Agreement, including the issuance and sale of the Acquired Shares, 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 Issuer pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which the Issuer is a party or by which the Issuer is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Issuer is subject; (ii) the organizational documents of the Issuer; 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 Issuer or any of its properties that, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Issuer and its subsidiaries taken as a whole or materially and adversely affect the validity of the Acquired Shares or the legal authority of the Issuer to perform in all material respects its obligations hereunder (a “Material Adverse Effect”).

(e) The Issuer 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 or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Acquired Shares), other than (i) the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) of the Registration Statement (as defined below), (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) the Required Approvals; (iv) those required by the New York Stock Exchange or other applicable stock exchange on which the Acquired Shares are then listed (“NYSE”), including with respect to obtaining approval of the Issuer’s stockholders, and (v) the failure of which to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) Assuming the accuracy of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 4 of this Subscription Agreement, no registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Acquired Shares by the Issuer to the Subscriber.

(g) Neither the Issuer nor any person acting on its behalf has offered or sold the Acquired Shares by any form of general solicitation or general advertising in violation of the Securities Act.

(i) The Other Subscription Agreements reflect the same Per Share Purchase Price and other terms and conditions with respect to the purchase of the Acquired Shares that are no more favorable to such subscriber thereunder than the terms of this Subscription Agreement, other than terms particular to the regulatory requirements of such subscriber or its affiliates or related funds that are mutual funds or are otherwise subject to regulations related to the timing of funding and the issuance of the related Acquired Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 3(i) shall not apply to any document entered into in connection with the Insider PIPE Investment; provided, however, that such Insider PIPE Investment shall be (i) with respect to the same class of common stock being acquired by Subscriber hereunder and at the same Per Share Purchase Price and with other economic terms that are substantially identical to those reflected herein (other than registration rights), and (ii) subject to a separate registration rights agreement which provides for registration of the Insider PIPE Investment within substantially the same time frame as hereunder and does not restrict Subscriber’s registration rights hereunder.

The Issuer has taken no action that is designed to terminate the registration of the Class A Shares under the Exchange Act prior to the Subscription Closing.

(l) As of the date hereof, Issuer has not received any written communication from a governmental authority that alleges that Issuer is not in compliance with or is in default or violation of any applicable law, except where such non-compliance, default or violation would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(m) The Issuer acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Acquired Shares may be pledged by Subscriber in connection with a bona fide margin agreement, which shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Acquired Shares hereunder, and Subscriber effecting a pledge of Acquired Shares shall not be required to provide the Issuer with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Issuer pursuant to this Subscription Agreement. The Issuer hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Acquired Shares may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Acquired Shares to such pledgee by Subscriber.

(n) There are no securities or instruments issued by or to which the Issuer is a party containing anti-dilution or similar provisions that will be triggered by the issuance of (i) the Acquired Shares or (ii) the Class A Shares to be issued pursuant to any Other Subscription Agreement, in each case, that have not been or will not be validly waived on or prior to the Closing Date.

(k) 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. Subscriber acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.

customary blackout or similar period or as permitted hereunder; provided that Subscriber 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 Acquired Shares. Any failure by the Issuer to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Date or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness Date shall not otherwise relieve the Issuer of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement as set forth above in this Section 5.

(b) 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 Acquired Shares, (ii) the date all Acquired Shares held by Subscriber may be sold without restriction under Rule 144, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions which may be applicable to affiliates under Rule 144 and without the requirement for the Issuer to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable), and (iii) two years from the Effectiveness Date of the Registration Statement. 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 five (5) business days:

 

  (A)

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;

 

  (B)

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

 

  (C)

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;

 

  (D)

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

 

  (E)

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 (A) through (E) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding the Issuer;

 

9


(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)(E) above, 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 securities exchange or market, if any, on which the Class A Shares issued by the Issuer have been listed; and

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

(c) 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 from time to time to require Subscriber not to sell under the Registration Statement 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 to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, however, that the Issuer may not delay or suspend the Registration Statement on more than three occasions or for more than ninety (90) consecutive calendar days, or more than one hundred and twenty (120) 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 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, Subscriber agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Acquired Shares under the 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.

 

10


(d) Indemnification.

(i) The Issuer agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, Subscriber (to the extent a seller under the Registration Statement), its directors and officers, partners, managers, members, stockholders and each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of the Securities Act), to the extent permitted by law, against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses (including without limitation reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees of one law firm) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included in any Registration Statement (“Prospectus”) or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or 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 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 furnished in writing to the Issuer by or on behalf of such Subscriber expressly for use therein.

(ii) In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Subscriber is participating, such Subscriber shall furnish to the Issuer in writing such information and affidavits as the Issuer reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Issuer, its directors and officers and each person who controls the Issuer (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses (including without limitation reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees of one law firm) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of 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, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Subscriber expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the liability of each such Subscriber shall be several and not joint and shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Subscriber from the sale of Acquired Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(iii) Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) 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 person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) 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 party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). 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 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 includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which 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.

(iv) The indemnification provided for under this Subscription Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

 

11


(v) If the indemnification provided under this Section 5(d) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, 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, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses 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; provided, however, that the liability of Subscriber shall be limited to the net proceeds received by such Subscriber from the sale of Registrable Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 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 party’s and indemnified party’s 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 Sections 5(d)(i), (ii) and (iii) above, 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 5(d)(v) from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

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 Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto and the Target to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) 11:59 PM Pacific Time on September 17, 2021 if the Subscription Closing has not occurred on or before such date; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful material breach hereof (including for the avoidance of doubt the Issuer’s or Subscriber’s willful breach of Section 2(b)(i)(x) or Section 2(b)(i)(y) of this Subscription Agreement, as applicable, with respect to its respective representations and warranties as of the Subscription Closing) 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 willful breach. The Issuer shall promptly notify Subscriber in writing of the termination of the Merger Agreement (other than such termination as a result of the closing thereunder). Upon the termination of this Subscription Agreement in accordance with this Section 6, any monies paid by Subscriber to the Issuer in connection herewith shall be promptly (and in any event within two (2) business days after such termination) returned to Subscriber without any deduction or set-off.

7. Trust Account Waiver. Subscriber acknowledges that the Issuer is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Issuer and one or more businesses or assets. Subscriber further acknowledges that, as described in the Issuer’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated October 31, 2019 (the “Prospectus”), 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 its initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Issuer to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Prospectus. 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 certificate of incorporation 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

 

12


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, 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 acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

8. Issuer’s Covenants. At the request of the holder of the Acquired Shares, the Issuer shall reasonably cooperate with the holder of the Acquired Shares, and the holder of the Acquired Shares shall provide the Issuer with such certifications and other documentation, to effect the removal of the legend described in Section 4(e), and for the Issuer to issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of the Acquired Shares upon which it is stamped or issue to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), if (i) such Acquired Shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (ii) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer, such holder provides the Issuer with an opinion of counsel, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Issuer, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Acquired Shares may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, or (iii) the Acquired Shares are sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144. The Issuer shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent and all DTC fees associated with such issuance.

9. [Reserved].

10. Miscellaneous.

The Issuer acknowledges that the Subscriber will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties of Issuer contained in this Subscription Agreement.

Upon such assignment by a Subscriber, the assignee(s) shall become Subscriber hereunder and have the rights and obligations provided for herein to the extent of such assignment. Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Issuer hereunder or any of the Issuer’s obligations may be transferred or assigned other than pursuant to the Transactions.

13


(e) The Issuer may request from Subscriber such additional information as the Issuer may deem reasonably necessary to evaluate the eligibility of Subscriber to acquire the Acquired Shares and to comply with the Issuer’s obligations under Section 5 and Section 8 hereof, and Subscriber shall provide such information as may be reasonably requested, to the extent readily available and to the extent consistent with its internal policies and procedures.

(f) This Subscription Agreement may not be modified, waived or terminated except by an instrument in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of such modification, waiver, or termination is sought; provided, however, that no modification, amendment or waiver by the Issuer of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Target to the extent required by the Merger Agreement.

(g) This Subscription Agreement (including the schedule hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(h) Subject to Section 10(c) and except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective affiliates and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person. The agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

(i) If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

(j) This Subscription Agreement may be executed in one (1) or more counterparts (including by electronic means), all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.

(k) Each party shall pay all of its own expenses in connection with this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

(l) This Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns; provided, that the parties acknowledge and agree that the indemnified parties referred to therein shall each be a third-party beneficiary to this Subscription Agreement with respect to Section 5(d)(i) and (ii), respectively.

(o) This Subscription Agreement, and any claim or cause of action hereunder based upon, arising out of or related to this Subscription Agreement (whether based on law, in equity, in contract, in tort or any other theory) or the negotiation, execution, performance or enforcement of this Subscription Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws that would otherwise require the application of the law of any other state.

THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA LOCATED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK SOLELY IN RESPECT OF THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND HEREBY WAIVE, AND AGREE NOT TO ASSERT, AS A DEFENSE IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING FOR INTERPRETATION OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR THAT SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING MAY NOT BE BROUGHT OR IS NOT MAINTAINABLE IN SAID COURTS OR THAT VENUE THEREOF MAY NOT BE APPROPRIATE OR THAT THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT MAY NOT BE ENFORCED IN OR BY SUCH COURTS, AND THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED BY SUCH A NEW YORK STATE OR FEDERAL COURT. THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT TO AND GRANT ANY SUCH COURT JURISDICTION OVER THE PERSON OF SUCH PARTIES AND OVER THE SUBJECT MATTER OF SUCH DISPUTE AND AGREE THAT MAILING OF PROCESS OR OTHER PAPERS IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN SECTION 10(m) OR IN SUCH OTHER MANNER AS MAY BE PERMITTED BY LAW SHALL BE VALID AND SUFFICIENT SERVICE THEREOF.

EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (II) SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (III) SUCH PARTY MAKES THE FOREGOING WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10(o).

(p) If, any change in the Class A Shares shall occur between the date hereof and immediately prior to the Subscription Closing by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend, the number of Acquired Shares issued to Subscriber shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change.

11. Press Release. The Issuer shall, by 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first business day immediately following the date of this Subscription Agreement, issue one or more press releases or furnish or file with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K or a Proxy Statement or Form S-4 for the Transactions (collectively, the “Disclosure Document”) disclosing, to the extent not previously publicly disclosed, the PIPE Investment, all material terms of the Transactions and any other material, non-public information that the Issuer or any of its officers, employees or agents on behalf of the Issuer, has provided to Subscriber at any time prior to the

 

16


filing of the Disclosure Document. From and after the disclosure of the Disclosure Document, Subscriber shall no longer be subject to any confidentiality or similar obligations under any current agreement, whether written or oral, with the Issuer or any of its affiliates relating to the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement, and, to the knowledge of the Issuer, Subscriber shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information received from the Issuer or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents. All press releases or other public communications relating to the transactions contemplated hereby between the Issuer and Subscriber, and the method of the release for publication thereof, shall be subject to the prior approval of (i) the Issuer and the Target, and (ii) to the extent such press release or public communication references Subscriber or its affiliates or investment advisers by name, Subscriber. The restriction in this Section 11 shall not apply to the extent such disclosure is required by applicable securities law, any governmental authority or stock exchange rule; provided, that in such an event, the applicable party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other party in advance as to its form, content and timing.
