Agreement

1.           Sale and Purchase.

(a)          Forward Purchase Units.

(i)           The Company shall issue and sell to the Sponsor and the Sponsor shall purchase from the Company, at a price of $10.00 per one Forward Purchase Share and one- fifth of one Forward Purchase Warrant (one Forward Purchase Share and one-fifth of one Forward Purchase Warrant, a “Forward Purchase Unit”), an aggregate of 25,000,000 Forward Purchase Units for an aggregate purchase price of $250,000,000 (the “FPU Purchase Price”). Each Forward Purchase Warrant and its underlying Series A Share will have the same terms as the Warrants and their underlying Series A Shares to be issued in the IPO. Each Forward Purchase Warrant will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Warrant Agreement to be entered into between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as Warrant Agent, in connection with the IPO.

(ii)          The Company shall require the Sponsor to purchase the Forward Purchase Units pursuant to Section 1(a)(i) hereof by delivering notice (the “Company Notice”) to the Sponsor, at least five (5) Business Days before the funding of the FPU Purchase Price, specifying the anticipated date of the Business Combination Closing and instructions for wiring the FPU Purchase Price to an account designated by the Company, which may be but need not be an interest-bearing account. At least two (2) Business Days before the anticipated date of the Business Combination Closing specified in such Company Notice (or such later date as the Company and the Sponsor may agree), the Sponsor shall deliver the FPU Purchase Price in cash via wire transfer to the account specified in such Company Notice, to be held in escrow pending the FPU Closing (as defined below). If the FPU Closing does not occur within five (5) Business Days after the Sponsor delivers the FPU Purchase Price to such account, the Company shall, upon request of the Sponsor, return to the Sponsor the FPU Purchase Price (and to the extent that there is any interest on the account holding the FPU Purchase Price, such interest shall go the Sponsor), provided that the return of the FPU Purchase Price placed in escrow shall not terminate this Agreement or otherwise relieve either party of any of its obligations hereunder and the Company may provide a subsequent Company Notice pursuant to this Section 1(a)(ii). For the purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or a Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are generally authorized or required by law or regulation to close in the City of New York, New York.

(iii)         The closing of the sale of the Forward Purchase Units (the “FPU Closing”) shall be held on the same date and substantially concurrently with the Business Combination Closing (such date being referred to as the “FPU Closing Date”). At the FPU Closing, the Company will issue to the Sponsor the Forward Purchase Shares and Forward Purchase Warrants.

(b)         Delivery of Forward Purchase Units.

(i)           The Company shall register the Sponsor as the owner of the Forward Purchase Shares and Forward Purchase Warrants included in the Forward Purchase Units with the Company’s transfer agent by book entry on or promptly after (but in no event more than two (2) Business Days after) the FPU Closing Date.

(ii)          Each book entry for the Forward Purchase Securities shall contain a notation, and each certificate (if any) evidencing the Forward Purchase Securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend, in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN VIOLATION OF SUCH ACT AND LAWS.”

(c)          Registration Rights. The Sponsor shall have registration rights as set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit 10.4 of the Registration Statement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”).

(a)          Organization and Power. The Sponsor is duly formed and validly existing and in good standing in its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as presently conducted and as proposed to be conducted.

(b)          Authorization. The Sponsor has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement. This Agreement, when executed and delivered by the Sponsor, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Sponsor, enforceable against the Sponsor in accordance with its terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (b) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, or (c) to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in the Investor Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable federal or state securities laws.

(c)          Governmental Consents and Filings. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any federal, state or local governmental authority is required on the part of the Sponsor in connection with the execution of this Agreement.

(d)          Compliance with Other Instruments. The execution, delivery and performance by the Sponsor of this Agreement and the consummation by the Sponsor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not result in any violation or default (i) of any provisions of its organizational documents, (ii) of any instrument, judgment, order, writ or decree to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (iii) under any note, indenture or mortgage to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (iv) under any lease, agreement, contract or purchase order to which it is a party or by which it is bound or (v) of any provision of federal or state statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Sponsor, in each case (other than clause (i)), which would have a material adverse effect on the Sponsor or its ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(e)          Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with the Sponsor in reliance upon the Sponsor’s representation to the Company, which by the Sponsor’s execution of this Agreement, the Sponsor hereby confirms, that the Forward Purchase Securities to be acquired by the Sponsor will be acquired for investment for the Sponsor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Sponsor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same in violation of law.

(g)          Restricted Securities. The Sponsor understands that the offer and sale of the Forward Purchase Units have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”), by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act that depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Sponsor’s representations as expressed herein. The Sponsor understands that the Forward Purchase Securities are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Sponsor must hold the Forward Purchase Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the SEC and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Sponsor acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Forward Purchase Securities for resale, except pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement. The Sponsor further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Forward Purchase Securities, and on requirements relating to the Company that are outside of the Sponsor’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy. The Sponsor understands that the offering to the Sponsor of the Forward Purchase Securities is not, and is not intended to be, part of the IPO, and that the Sponsor will not be able to rely on the protection of Section 11 or Section 12 of the Securities Act with respect to the Forward Purchase Securities.

(h)          No Public Market. The Sponsor understands that no public market now exists for the Forward Purchase Securities, and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Forward Purchase Securities.

(i)           High Degree of Risk. The Sponsor understands that its agreement to purchase the Forward Purchase Units involves a high degree of risk, which could cause the Sponsor to lose all or part of its investment.

(j)           No General Solicitation. Neither the Sponsor, nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders or partners, has either directly or indirectly, including, through a broker or finder (i) to its knowledge, engaged in any general solicitation, or (ii) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the Forward Purchase Securities.

(k)          Non-Public Information. The Sponsor acknowledges its obligations under applicable securities laws with respect to the treatment of material non-public information relating to the Company.

(l)           Affiliation of Certain FINRA Members. The Sponsor is neither a person associated nor affiliated with Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC or Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC or, to its actual knowledge, any other member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) that is participating in the IPO.

(m)         No Other Representations and Warranties; Non-Reliance. Except for the specific representations and warranties contained in this Section 2 and in any certificate or agreement delivered pursuant hereto, none of the Sponsor nor any person acting on behalf of the Sponsor nor any of the Sponsor’s affiliates (other than the Company) (the “Sponsor Parties”) has made, makes or shall be deemed to make any other express or implied representation or warranty with respect to the Sponsor and this offering, and the Sponsor Parties disclaim any such representation or warranty.

(f)           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

(g)          Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(h)          Governing Law. This Agreement, the entire relationship of the parties hereto, and any dispute between the parties (whether grounded in contract, tort, statute, law or equity) shall be governed by, construed in accordance with, and interpreted pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware.

(i)           Jurisdiction. The parties hereto (i) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of the state courts of Delaware and to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement, (b) agree not to commence any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement except in state courts of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and (c) hereby waive, and agree not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise, in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court.

(j)           Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties hereto hereby waive any right to a jury trial in connection with any litigation pursuant to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k)          Amendments and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived as to any particular provision, except with the written consent of the Company and the Sponsor. No waiver by any party hereto of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, may be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising because of any prior or subsequent occurrence.

(l)           Severability. The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof; provided that if any provision of this Agreement, as applied to any party hereto or to any circumstance, is adjudged by a governmental authority, arbitrator, or mediator not to be enforceable in accordance with its terms, the parties hereto agree that the governmental authority, arbitrator, or mediator making such determination will have the power to modify the provision in a manner consistent with its objectives such that it is enforceable, and/or to delete specific words or phrases, and in its reduced form, such provision will then be enforceable and will be enforced.

(m)         Expenses. Each of the Company and the Sponsor will bear its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including all fees and expenses of agents, representatives, financial advisors, legal counsel and accountants.

(n)          Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign law will be deemed also to refer to law as amended and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance. If any party hereto has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which such party hereto has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party hereto is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant. The word “Business Day” means any calendar day other than Saturday, Sunday, or a day on which banks in New York, New York or Denver, Colorado are authorized or required to be closed.
