WHEREAS, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the GP Sponsor wishes to sell, assign and transfer an aggregate of 3,543,750 Founder Shares (the “Shares”) held by it to the Recipient, and the Recipient wishes to purchase the Shares from the GP Sponsor and be bound by the terms of this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the GP Sponsor shall, pursuant to a securities assignment agreement to be entered into on or around the date of this Agreement, sell, assign and transfer an aggregate of 100,000 Founder Shares held by GP Sponsor to Asha Daniere, Ira Lamel, George Roeth and Mark Tarchetti (the “Independent Director Assignment”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, representations, warranties and the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Assignment of Securities. The GP Sponsor hereby sells, assigns and transfers to the Recipient, and the Recipient hereby purchases, the Shares from the GP Sponsor, for a purchase price of $12,326.09 (the “Purchase Price”).

Section 2. Owner. The GP Sponsor represents and warrants that it owns, beneficially and of record, and has valid title to, and the right to transfer to the Recipient, all of the Shares, free and clear of any lien, pledge, mortgage, security interest, charge, restriction, adverse claim or other encumbrance of any kind or nature whatsoever (“Encumbrances”), and the Recipient shall acquire, and have valid title to, the Shares, free and clear of any and all Encumbrances, in each case, except as provided in, or contemplated by, the Subscription Agreement. No person has any written or oral agreement, arrangement or understanding or option for, or any right or privilege (whether by law, preemption or contract) that is or is capable of becoming an agreement, arrangement or understanding or option for, the purchase or acquisition from the GP Sponsor of any of the Shares.

Section 3. No Conflicts. Each party represents and warrants that neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such party, nor the consummation or performance by such party of any of the transactions’ contemplated hereby, will with or without notice or lapse of time, constitute, create or result in a breach or violation of, default under, loss of benefit or right under or acceleration of performance of any obligation required under any agreement to which it is a party.

Section 4. Representations. The Recipient represents and warrants as follows: the Recipient hereby acknowledges that an investment in the Shares involves certain significant risks. The Recipient acknowledges and hereby agrees that the Shares will not be transferable under any circumstances unless the Shares are registered in accordance with federal and state securities laws or an exemption under such laws is available. The Recipient further acknowledges and hereby agrees that the Shares are subject to restrictions and obligations as set forth in the Subscription Agreement, that Shares are subject to forfeiture pursuant to the forfeiture provision contained in Section 3.1 thereto, and the Insider Letter to be entered into among the Company, the GP Sponsor, the Recipient, and the other parties thereto, substantially in the form attached as Annex II hereto, and the lock-up provisions therein. The Recipient further understands that any certificates evidencing the Shares bear a legend (as provided in the Subscription Agreement) referring to the foregoing transfer restrictions. The Shares are being assigned solely for the Recipient’s own account, for investment purposes only, and are not being assigned with a view to or for the resale, distribution, subdivision or fractionalization thereof; and the Recipient has no present plans to enter into any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement for such resale, distribution, subdivision or fractionalization. The Recipient is able to bear the risk of its investment for an indefinite period of time. The Recipient has been given the opportunity to (i) ask questions of and receive answers from the GP Sponsor and the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the Shares, and the business and financial condition of the Company and (ii) obtain any additional information that the GP Sponsor possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to assist the Recipient in evaluating the advisability of the receipt of the Shares and an investment in the Company. The Recipient is not relying on any oral representation made by any person as to the Company or its operations, financial condition or prospects. The Recipient is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
