As Representative of the Underwriters named onSchedule Ahereto

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned, Bayview Acquisition Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Company”), hereby confirms its agreement with Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (hereinafter referred to as “you,” “Chardan,” or as the “Representative”) and with the other underwriters named onSchedule Ahereto for which you are acting as representative (the Representative and the other Underwriters being collectively referred to herein as the “Underwriters” or, individually, an “Underwriter”), as follows:

1. Purchase and Sale of Securities.

1.1. Firm Securities.

1.1.1 Purchase of Firm Units. On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company agrees to issue and allot, severally and not jointly, to the several Underwriters, an aggregate of 5,000,000 units (the “Firm Units”) of the Company at a purchase price (net of discounts and commissions, including the Deferred Underwriting Commission described inSection 1.3.1below) of $9.45 per Firm Unit. The Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agree to purchase from the Company the number of Firm Units set forth opposite their respective names onSchedule Aattached hereto and made a part hereof at a purchase price (net of discounts and commissions, including the Deferred Underwriting Commission described inSection 1.3.1below) of $9.45 per Firm Unit. The Firm Units (and the Option Units (as hereinafter defined), if any) are to be offered initially to the public (the “Offering”) at the offering price of $10.00 per Firm Unit (or Option Unit, as applicable). Each Firm Unit (and Option Unit) consists of one (1) ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (an “Ordinary Share”) and one (1) right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Ordinary Share upon the consummation of a Business Combination (as defined below) (the “Rights”); provided, however, the Company will not sell or issue fractional shares with respect to any Right. The Ordinary Shares and the Rights included in the Firm Units (and the Option Units) will not be separately transferable until the earlier of the 90th day after the date that the Registration Statement (as defined below) is declared effective (the “Effective Date”) by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) or the announcement by the Company of the Representative’s decision to allow earlier trading, subject, however, to the Company filing a Current Report on Form 8-K (“Form 8-K”) with the Commission containing an audited balance sheet reflecting the Company’s receipt of the gross proceeds of the Offering and issuing a press release announcing when such separate trading will begin. In no event will the Company allow separate trading until (i) the preparation of an audited balance sheet of the Company reflecting receipt by the Company of the proceeds of the Offering and the filing of such audited balance sheet with the Commission on a Form 8-K or similar form by the Company which includes such balance sheet and (ii) the issuance of a press release announcing when such separate trading shall begin. As described in the Prospectus (as defined herein), each Right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Ordinary Share upon the consummation of a Business Combination. Each ten Rights entitle the holder thereof to receive one Ordinary Share at the closing of a Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares. As a result, a holder must hold rights in multiples of ten (10) in order to receive Ordinary Shares for all of the holder’s rights upon closing of a Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the required time period and the Company redeems the Ordinary Shares for the funds held in the Trust Account (as defined below), holders of Rights will not receive any of such funds for their Rights and the Rights will expire worthless. As used herein, the term “Business Combination” shall mean any merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities by the Company.  As used herein, the term “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, on which banks in New York City are generally open for normal business; provided, however, for clarification, national banks shall not be deemed to be authorized or required by law to remain closed due to “stay at home”, “shelter-in-place”, “non- essential employee”, or other similar orders or restrictions of the closure of any physical branch locations at the direction of any governmental authority so long as the electronic funds transfer systems (including wire transfers) of national banks in New York, New York are generally open for use by customers on such day.

1.1.2 Payment and Delivery. Delivery and payment for the Firm Units shall be made at 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the second (2nd) Business Day following the Effective Date of the Registration Statement (or the third (3rd) Business Day following the Effective Date, if the Registration Statement is declared effective at or after 4:00 p.m., New York City time) or at such earlier time as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company at the offices of the Representative or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company. The closing of the public offering contemplated by this Agreement is referred to herein as the “Closing” and the hour and date of delivery and payment for the Firm Units is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”.

The Underwriters will not be under any obligation to purchase any Option Units prior to the exercise of the Over-allotment Option. The Over-allotment Option granted hereby may be exercised by the giving of oral notice to the Company from the Representative, which must be confirmed in writing by overnight mail, facsimile transmission or e-mail transmission setting forth the number of Option Units to be purchased and the date and time for delivery of and payment for the Option Units, if other than the Closing Date, which date shall not be earlier than the Closing Date or later than five (5) Business Days after the date of the written notice or such other time as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Representative, at the offices of the Representative or at such other place or in such other manner as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Representative. If such delivery and payment for the Option Units does not occur on the Closing Date, the date and time of the closing for such Option Units (the “Option Closing”) will be as set forth in the notice (hereinafter the “Option Closing Date”).

Delivery and payment for the Option Units shall be made at 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the Option Closing Date or at such earlier time as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company at the offices of the Representative or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company.

1.3. Deferred Compensation.

1.3.1 Deferred Underwriting Commission. Chardan shall also be entitled to receive three and a half percent (3.5%) of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Firm Units (up to $1,750,000) and three and a half percent (3.5%) of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Option Units (or up to $2,012,500 in total to the extent the Over-allotment Option is exercised) as a deferred underwriting commission (the “Deferred Underwriting Commission”). At the option of Chardan, the Deferred Underwriting Commission shall be payable directly from the Trust Account, without accrued interest, to Chardan upon consummation of a Business Combination. For the avoidance of doubt, only Chardan and none of the other Underwriters shall be entitled to receive the Deferred Underwriting Commission. In the event that the Company is unable to consummate a Business Combination and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as the trustee of the Trust Account (in this context, the “Trustee”), commences liquidation of the Trust Account as provided in the Trust Agreement, Chardan agrees that: (i) Chardan shall have no right or claim to receive the Deferred Underwriting Commission; and (ii) the Deferred Underwriting Commission, together with all other amounts on deposit in the Trust Account, shall be distributed on a pro-rata basis among the public shareholders. Any Deferred Underwriting Commissions will be fully earned by the Representative upon the payment of the purchase price for the Units purchased by the Underwriters at the Closing (or, with respect to Deferred Underwriting Commissions related to the Option Units, the payment of the purchase price for those Option Units at any Option Closing) and will be paid only to the Representative if and when the Company consummates a Business Combination without any further conditions. Chardan may waive its right to receive the Deferred Underwriting Commission by notifying the Company in writing at any time prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, in which case the Deferred Underwriting Commission will be cancelled.

1.3.2 Representative’s Purchase Option. As additional consideration, the Company hereby agrees to issue and sell to the Representative (and/or its designees) on the Closing Date an option (“Representative’s Purchase Option”) for the purchase of an aggregate of 450,000 units (or up to 517,500 units to the extent the underwriter’s Over-allotment Option is exercised) (such units, the “Representative’s Units”) for an aggregate purchase price of $100.00. The Representative’s Purchase Option shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time between (i) the closing of the Business Combination, and (ii) five (5) years from the date of commencement of sales in the Offering, for cash or on a cashless basis, at an initial exercise price per Representative’s Unit of $11.50 (or 115% of the volume weighted average trading price of the Ordinary Shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day immediately prior to consummation of an initial Business Combination). The Representative’s Purchase Option, the Representative’s Units, the Ordinary Shares included in the Representative’s Units, the Rights included in the Representative’s Units (the “Representative’s Rights”) and the Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of the Representative’s Rights are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Representative’s Securities.” Pursuant to Rule 5110(e)(1) of FINRA’s rules, the Representative’s Securities will be subject to a lock-up for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days immediately following the commencement of sales in the offering during which such securities may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative or put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the Representative’s Securities. Delivery and payment for the Representative’s Purchase Option shall be made on the Closing Date. The Company shall deliver to the Representative (and/or its designees) upon payment therefor, certificates for the Representative’s Purchase Option in the name or names and in such authorized denominations as the Representative may request.

1.4. Private Placement.

1.4.1 Placement Units. Simultaneously with the Closing, [Bayview Holding LP (the “Sponsor”) and Peace Investment Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Island Company (“Peace Investment” and together with the Sponsor, the “Sponsors”)] shall purchase from the Company, pursuant to a written purchase agreement an aggregate of 212,500 private placement units (or up to 227,500 private placement units to the extent the Over-allotment Option is exercised) (the “Placement Units”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per Placement Unit in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) in order to ensure that at least $10.00 per Unit sold to the public shareholders is held in trust after the exercise of the Over-allotment Option. The Placement Units, the Ordinary Shares included in the Placement Units (the “Placement Shares”), the Rights included in the Placement Units (the “Placement Rights”) and the Ordinary Shares underlying the Placement Rights are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Placement Securities,” and the Public Securities, the Representative’s Securities and the Placement Securities are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Securities.” Each Placement Unit shall be identical to the Units sold in the Offering, except that the Placement Units and their component securities may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative or put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities period of one hundred eighty (180) days immediately following the commencement of sales in the offering and will not be transferable, assignable or salable until thirty (30) days after the completion of the Company’s Business Combination except to permitted transferees, and that the component securities, so long as they are held by the Sponsors or their permitted transferees, will be entitled to registration rights. The Placement Units and the securities included therein will expire worthless in the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within the required time period. There will be no placement agent in the Private Placement and no party shall be entitled to a placement fee or expense allowance from the sale of the Placement Securities.

1.5. Founder Shares.

1.5.1 Pursuant to the Founder Shares Subscription Agreement, dated February 23, 2023 (the “Founder Shares Subscription Agreement”), the Company issued to the Sponsor an aggregate of 1,437,500 ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (such shares, the “Founder Shares”) in a private placement for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash. On March 14, 2023, the Sponsor transferred 963,125 shares to Peace Investment (the “Assignment”). Up to 187,500 Founder Shares held by the Sponsors are subject to forfeiture to the extent the Underwriters do not exercise their Over-allotment Option.

The conditions for use of Form S-1 to register the Offering under the Act, as set forth in the General Instructions to such Form, have been satisfied in all material respects. Except as the context may otherwise require, such registration statement, as amended, on file with the Commission at the time the registration statement becomes effective (including the prospectus, financial statements, schedules, exhibits and all other documents filed as a part thereof or incorporated therein and all information deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to Rule 430A of the Regulations), is hereinafter called the “Registration Statement,” and the form of the final prospectus dated the Effective Date included in the Registration Statement (or, if applicable, the form of final prospectus containing information permitted to be omitted at the time of effectiveness by Rule 430A of the Regulations filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 of the Regulations), is hereinafter called the “Prospectus.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Time of Sale,” as used in the Act, means [●]:[●] p.m., New York City time, on the date of this Agreement, or such time and date on which the Company delivers the Firm Units or any Option Units pursuant to the Over-allotment Option. If the Company has filed, or is required pursuant to the terms hereof to file, a registration statement pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Act registering additional Public Securities (a “Rule 462(b) Registration Statement”), then, unless otherwise specified, any reference herein to the term “Registration Statement” shall be deemed to include such Rule 462(b) Registration Statement.

All of the Public Securities have been registered under the Act pursuant to the Registration Statement or, if any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement is filed, will be duly registered under the Act with the filing of such Rule 462(b) Registration Statement. The Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission on the date hereof. If, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Company or the Representative has determined that at the Time of Sale the Prospectus included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted a statement of material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and have agreed to provide an opportunity to purchasers of the Units to terminate their old purchase contracts and enter into new purchase contracts, the Prospectus will be deemed to include any additional information available to purchasers at the time of entry into the first such new purchase contract.

Each testing-the-waters communication, if any, does not conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus and each such testing-the-waters communication, as supplemented by and taken together with the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, did not, and as of each Time of Sale will not, include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If at any time following the distribution of any testing-the-waters communication, there occurred an event as a result of which such testing-the-waters communication would conflict with the information in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made at such time, not misleading, the Company will (i) notify promptly the Representative so that use of the testing-the-waters communication may cease until it is amended or supplemented; (ii) amend or supplement, without charge, the testing-the-waters communication to eliminate or correct such untrue statement or omission; and (iii) supply any amendment or supplement to the Representative in such quantities as may be reasonably requested.

To the Company’s knowledge, performance by the Company of the material provisions of such agreements or instruments will not result in a material violation of any existing applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree of any governmental agency or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its assets or businesses, including, without limitation, those relating to environmental laws and regulations.

The Representative shall be offered a right to receive at least 30% of the placement fees or other compensation or economics earned by or paid to all advisors and/or underwriters in connection with the Related Financings.

The Company shall give Chardan the right (but not the obligation) of first refusal to act as the sole provider, from the closing of the Business Combination through the eighteen (18) month anniversary thereof, of any arrangement or facility enabling the Company, or any successor thereof following the Business Combination, to raise capital through the sale or other distribution of its Ordinary Shares or any other equity-linked securities directly or indirectly (for instance, by sales of immediately registered shares in an equity line facility) to the public markets. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights of first refusal described in this Section 3.33 shall comply with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(6)(A), including with the requirement that (i) such rights will not have a duration of more than three years from the commencement of sales in this Offering or the termination date of the engagement between the Company and Chardan, and (ii) Chardan will not have more than one opportunity to waive or terminate any right of first refusal in consideration of any payment or fee.

| (A) | any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained: (i) in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, or the Prospectus (as from time to time each may be amended and supplemented); (ii) in any post-effective amendment or amendments or any new registration statement, prospectus or proxy statement relating to any Public Securities; (iii) in any Combination Materials or in any other materials shared or used in connection with a Business Combination with the Company’s shareholders or potential investors; or (iv) in any oral or written testing-the-waters communications, any application or other document or written communication, or any any “road show” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Act or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act (in this Section 5, collectively called “Application”) executed or used by the Company;

25

| (B) | any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact based upon written information furnished by the Company in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Public Securities or any securities issued in connection with a Business Combination under the securities laws thereof or filed with the Commission, any state securities commission or agency, the Nasdaq Stock Market or any securities exchange; or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or
| (C) | any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact used in any business combination marketing or capital markets advisory activities by any Underwriter on the Company’s behalf in connection with a Business Combination,

except to the extent such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company with respect to an Underwriter by or on behalf of such Underwriter expressly for use in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof, in any Combination Materials or in any other materials or communications shared or used in connection with a Business Combination with the Company’s shareholders or potential investors.

5.1.2 Solely with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereof, the indemnity agreement contained in Section 5.1 shall not inure to the benefit of any Underwriter to the extent that any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense of such Underwriter results from the fact that a copy of the Prospectus was not given or sent to the person asserting any such loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the written confirmation of sale of the Public Securities as required by the Act and the Regulations, and if the untrue statement or omission has been corrected in the Prospectus, unless such failure to deliver such materials was a result of non-compliance by the Company with its obligations underSection 3.2hereof or under any other laws, rules and regulations.

5.1.3 The Company agrees to promptly notify the Representative of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against the Company or any of its officers, directors or Controlling Persons in connection with the issue and sale of the Public Securities or securities to be issued in connection with a Business Combination, or in connection with the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, or the Prospectus, in any Combination Materials or in any other materials or communications shared or used in connection with a Business Combination with the Company’s shareholders or potential investors.

5.1.4 Procedure. If any action is brought against an Underwriter or Controlling Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Company pursuant toSection 5.1, such Underwriter shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the institution of such action and the Company shall promptly assume the defense of such action, including the employment and fees of counsel (subject to the reasonable approval of such Underwriter) and payment of actual expenses. Such Underwriter or Controlling Person shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Underwriter or such Controlling Person unless: (i) the employment of such counsel at the expense of the Company shall have been authorized in writing by the Company in connection with the defense of such action within reasonable time under the circumstances; (ii) the Company shall not have assumed defense of such action pursuant to the preceding sentence; or (iii) such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from or additional to those available to the Company, or another conflict of interest or conflict as to legal representation exists (in which case the Company shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events the reasonable fees and expenses of not more than one additional firm of attorneys selected by the Underwriter and/or Controlling Person shall be borne by the Company. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any Underwriter is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Underwriter unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such Underwriter from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an Underwriter. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Underwriter or Controlling Person shall assume the defense of such action as provided above, the Company shall have the right to approve the terms of any settlement of such action which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

26

5.2. Indemnification of the Company. Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers and employees and agents who control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the several Underwriters, as incurred, because of untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions made in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Application, in reliance upon, and in strict conformity with, written information furnished to the Company with respect to such Underwriter by or on behalf of the Underwriter expressly for use in such Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto or in any such Application, which furnished written information, it is expressly agreed, consists solely of the information described in the last sentence of Section 2.3.1. In case any action shall be brought against the Company or any other person so indemnified based on any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto or any Application, and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter, such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the Company, and the Company and each other person so indemnified shall have the rights and duties given to the several Underwriters by the provisions of Section 5.1.2. The advancement, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution obligations of the Company required hereby shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as every liability and expense is incurred and is due and payable, and in such amounts as fully satisfy each and every liability and expense as it is incurred (and in no event later than 10 days following the date of any invoice therefore).

5.3. Contribution.

5.3.1 Contribution Rights. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution under the Act in any case in which: (i) any person entitled to indemnification under thisSection 5makes a claim for indemnification pursuant hereto but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that thisSection 5provides for indemnification in such case; or (ii) contribution under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise may be required on the part of any such person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 5, then, and in each such case, the Company and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by said indemnity agreement incurred by the Company and the Underwriters, as incurred, in such proportions that the Underwriters are responsible for that portion represented by the percentage that the underwriting discount appearing on the cover page of the Prospectus bears to the initial offering price appearing thereon and the Company is responsible for the balance;provided, that, no person guilty of a fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the provisions of thisSection 5.3.1, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Public Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay in respect of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses. No person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 5.3.1, each director, officer and employee of an Underwriter or the Company, as applicable, and each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter or the Company, as applicable, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Underwriters or the Company, as applicable.

27

5.3.2 Contribution Procedure. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt by any party to this Agreement (or its representative) of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, such party will, if a claim for contribution in respect thereof is to be made against another party (“Contributing Party”), notify the Contributing Party of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the Contributing Party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any other party other than for contribution hereunder. In case any such action, suit or proceeding is brought against any party, and such party notifies a Contributing Party or its representative of the commencement thereof within the aforesaid fifteen (15) days, the Contributing Party will be entitled to participate therein with the notifying party and any other Contributing Party similarly notified. Any such Contributing Party shall not be liable to any party seeking contribution on account of any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding effected by such party seeking contribution on account of any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding effected by such party seeking contribution without the written consent of such Contributing Party. The contribution provisions contained in this Section 5.3 are intended to supersede, to the extent permitted by law, any right to contribution under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise available. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 5.3 are several and not joint.

6. Default by an Underwriter.

6.1. Default Not Exceeding 10% of Firm Units or Option Units. If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall default in its or their obligations to purchase the Firm Units or the Option Units, if the Over-allotment Option is exercised, hereunder, and if the number of the Firm Units or Option Units with respect to which such default relates does not exceed in the aggregate ten percent (10%) of the number of Firm Units or Option Units that all Underwriters have agreed to purchase hereunder, then such Firm Units or Option Units to which the default relates shall be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder.

6.2. Default Exceeding 10% of Firm Units or Option Units. In the event that the default addressed in Section 6.1 above relates to more than ten percent (10%) of the Firm Units or Option Units, the Representative may in its discretion arrange for itself or for another party or parties to purchase such Firm Units or Option Units to which such default relates on the terms contained herein. If, within one (1) Business Day after such default relating to more than ten percent (10%) of the Firm Units or Option Units, the Representative does not arrange for the purchase of such Firm Units or Option Units, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of one (1) Business Day within which to procure another party or parties satisfactory to the Company and the Representative to purchase said Firm Units or Option Units on such terms. In the event neither the Company nor the Representative arranges for the purchase of the Firm Units or Option Units to which a default relates as provided in this Section 6, this Agreement may be terminated by the Company without liability on the part of the Company (except as provided in Sections 3.9 and 5 hereof) or the several Underwriters (except as provided in Section 5 hereof);provided,however, that if such default occurs with respect to the Option Units, this Agreement will not terminate as to the Firm Units; and provided further that nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the other several Underwriters and to the Company for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

6.3. Postponement of Closing Date. In the event the Firm Units or Option Units to which the default relates are to be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters, or are to be purchased by another party or parties as aforesaid, the Representative or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date or Option Closing Date for a reasonable period, but not in any event exceeding five (5) Business Days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and/or the Prospectus, as the case may be, or in any other documents and arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendment to, or to supplement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and/or the Prospectus, as the case may be, that in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters may thereby be made necessary. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any party substituted under this Section 6 with like effect as if it had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Securities.

7. Additional Covenants.

7.1. Additional Ordinary Shares or Options.

The Company further agrees that it will use all commercially reasonable efforts, prior to obtaining the services of any vendor, to obtain a written acknowledgment from such vendor, whether through a letter of intent, memorandum of understanding or other similar document (and subsequently acknowledges the same in any definitive document replacing any of the foregoing), that: (i) such vendor has read the Prospectus and understands that the Company has established the Trust Account, initially in an amount of $50,000,000 (increasing to up to $57,500,000 to the extent that the Over-allotment Option is exercised) for the benefit of the public shareholders, and that (ii) for and in consideration of the Company agreeing to engage the services of the vendor, such vendor agrees that it does not have any Claim and waives any Claim it may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with the Company and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.

Furthermore, each officer and director of the Company shall execute a waiver letter in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C.

7.4. Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. The Company shall not take any action or omit to take any action that would cause the Company to be in breach or violation of its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. Except as provided in Section 3.29, prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company will not amend its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, without the prior written consent of the Representative.

7.7. Rule 419. The Company agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the Company from becoming subject to Rule 419 under the Act prior to the consummation of any Business Combination, including, but not limited to, using its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any of the Company’s outstanding securities from being deemed to be a “penny stock” as defined in Rule 3a-51-1 under the Exchange Act during such period.

7.8. Presentation of Potential Target Businesses. The Company shall cause the Company’s officers, directors and Initial Shareholders to agree that, in order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, the Company’s officers, directors and Initial Shareholders will present to the Company for its consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or company, any suitable opportunity to acquire an operating business, until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary obligations the Initial Shareholders might have.

29

8. Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. Except as the context otherwise requires, all representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to be representations, warranties and agreements at the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, if any, and such representations, warranties and agreements of the Underwriters and the Company, including the indemnity agreements contained inSection 5hereof, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Company or any Controlling Person, and shall survive termination of this Agreement or the issuance and delivery of the Units to the several Underwriters until the earlier of the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations and the seventh anniversary of the later of the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, if any, at which time the representations, warranties and agreements shall terminate and be of no further force and effect.

9. Effective Date of This Agreement and Termination Thereof.

9.1. Effective Date. This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date at the time the Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission.
