Item 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.
Business
Combination Agreement
On December 22, 2023, Chenghe Acquisition I. Co., a Cayman Islands
exempted company (the “SPAC”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”)
with FST Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (“CayCo”), FST Merger Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted
company limited by shares and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo, (“Merger Sub”) and Femco Steel Technology
Co., Ltd., a company limited by shares incorporated and in existence under the laws of Taiwan with uniform commercial number of 04465819
(the “Company,” and together with CayCo and Merger Sub, the “Company Parties”),
pursuant to which, among other transactions, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub shall be merged
with and into SPAC with SPAC being the surviving company and as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo (the “Merger”),
and SPAC will change its name to “FST Ltd.” (the “Business Combination”). The closing of the Business Combination
will be conditional upon, among other things, the closing of the FST Restructuring (the “FST Restructuring Closing”)
(as discussed further below).
The
time of the closing of the Business Combination is referred to herein as the “Closing.” The date of the Closing of
the Business Combination is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” Capitalized terms used but not defined
herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Business Combination Agreement.
The Business Combination Agreement and the transactions
contemplated thereby were approved by the board of directors of SPAC.
FST Restructuring
The Company Parties will use their respective best efforts to cause
each other counterparties thereto to execute and deliver (i) the Phase I Restructuring Documents with the relevant parties thereto within
seventy-two (72) calendar days after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, pursuant to which CayCo will acquire 55% of the Aggregate
Fully Diluted Company Shares, and (ii) the Phase II Restructuring Documents (and together with Phase I Restructuring Documents, the “Company
Restructuring Documents”) as soon as reasonably practicable and legally feasible and in no event later than thirty (30) Business
Days after the Financial Supervisory Commission of Taiwan issues its approval for the termination of the Company’s Taiwan Public
Company status. The Company Parties will use their respective best efforts to procure the Company Restructuring Documents to be executed
with each of the relevant parties thereto such that the Company Acquisition Percentage shall be at least 90%. The purchase and acquisition
of the Company Shares by CayCo in accordance with the Company Restructuring Documents at the FST Restructuring Closing shall be referred
to as “Company Acquisition”.
The Company Parties agree that the Company Restructuring
Documents shall provide that at the FST Restructuring Closing, CayCo shall issue and allot to each Company Shareholder who has agreed
to so subscribe (“Company Shareholder Subscription” and together with Company Acquisition, the “FST Restructuring”)
in respect of each Company Share owned by such person, a number of CayCo Ordinary Shares that equals to the Subscription Factor, subject
to any adjustment in relation to the issuance of fractional shares as set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.
The FST Restructuring Closing shall take place
one (1) Business Day before the Closing Date or such other time and place as SPAC and the Company may mutually agree.
The Company Restricting Documents shall provide
that on and from the FST Restructuring, any shareholders, voting or similar agreement among the Company and any of the Company Shareholders
or among the Company Shareholders, if any, with respect to the Company or its shares shall automatically, and without any further action
by any of the parties, be terminated in full and become null and void and of no further force and effect, with no liability whatsoever
for the Company.
The Company shall apply for de-registration from
the Emerging Stock Market of the Taipei Exchange of Taiwan (the “Taiwan Stock Market”) within five (5) days after
the Company obtained the Company Shareholders’ approval to withdraw the public reporting status of the Company as a Taiwan Public
Company (the “Company Shareholder Approval”).
After CayCo files the registration statement on
Form F-4 (the “Registration Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”),
the parties shall agree on the appropriate timing to apply to the Financial Supervisory Commission of Taiwan to terminate the status of
the Company as a Taiwan Public Company, but in no event later than twenty (20) days after receiving the first round of comments on the
Registration Statement from the SEC. The de-registration from the Taiwan Stock Market and the termination of the status of the Company
as a Taiwan Public Company with the Financial Supervisory Commission of Taiwan are collectively referred to herein as “FST Withdrawal.”
As soon as practicable and to the extent legally
feasible under the applicable Laws after Closing, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to enter into and consummate a transaction
with CayCo for CayCo to acquire the Company Shares owned by the Company Shareholders who choose not to participate in the FST Restructuring
or other alternative transactions to be agreed by Chenghe (as defined below) and the Company.
The “Subscription Factor” is
a number resulting from dividing (x) the result of the quantity of the Base Equity Value divided by US$10.00, by (y) the
Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares as at the time of calculation. The “Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares”
means, without duplication, the aggregate number of Company Shares that are (i) issued and outstanding or (ii) issuable upon,
or subject to (x) the exercise or settlement of any Option or (y) the consummation of any PIPE Investment, if any. The “Base
Equity Value” means US$400,000,000. The “Company Acquisition Percentage” means a number, expressed as a percentage,
calculated by dividing (x) the number of Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares owned by CayCo immediately after the FST Restructuring
Closing by (y) the Aggregate Fully Diluted Company Shares at such time.
The Merger
Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at the Merger Effective
Time, and in respect of SPAC B Class B Conversion, immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, (i) each outstanding SPAC Unit (“SPAC
Unit”), consisting of one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and one-half (1/2) of one (1) SPAC Warrant, will be automatically
separated (“Unit Separation”) and the holder thereof will be deemed to hold one (1) SPAC Class A Ordinary Share and
one-half (1/2) of one (1) SPAC Warrant; (ii) each SPAC Class B Ordinary Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Merger Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one (1) SPAC Class A Class Share (the “SPAC Class B Conversion”)
and each SPAC Class B Ordinary Share shall no longer be issued and outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and cease to exist;
(iii) each SPAC Class A Ordinary Share (which for the avoidance of doubt, includes the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (A) issued in connection
with the SPAC Class B Conversion; and (B) held as a result of Unit Separation) shall be converted into the right to receive one (1) CayCo
Ordinary Share; and (iv) each SPAC Warrant that is outstanding and unexercised shall be automatically converted into the right to receive
a CayCo Warrant, which shall be on the same terms and conditions as the applicable SPAC warrant.
At the Closing, in accordance with Part XVI
of the Companies Act of the Cayman Islands, Merger Sub will merge with and into SPAC, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will
cease and SPAC will be the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CayCo.

The parties to the Business Combination Agreement
have agreed to customary representations and warranties for transactions of this type. The representations and warranties made under the
Business Combination Agreement will not survive the Closing.

This Current Report on Form 8-K (“Form

Caution About Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements
for purposes of the “safe harbor” provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any
statements other than statements of historical fact contained herein are forward-looking statements and are based on beliefs and assumptions
and on information currently available to SPAC, the Company and CayCo. No representations or warranties, express or implied are given
in, or in respect of, this Form 8-K. These forward-looking statements are based on SPAC’s, the Company’s and CayCo’s
expectations and beliefs concerning future events and involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially
from current expectations. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “may,” “will,”
“could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,”
“believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “continue,”
“ongoing,” “target,” “seek” or the negative or plural of these words, or other similar expressions
that are predictions or indicate future events or prospects, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words, but the
absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
These forward-looking statements and factors that
may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: the effect of the announcement
or pendency of the Proposed Business Combination on the Company’s business relationships, operating results, current plans and operations
of CayCo and the Company; the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Business Combination, which may be affected
by, among other things, competition, the ability of CayCo to grow and manage growth profitably; the possibility that SPAC, CayCo and/or
the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; estimates by SPAC, CayCo or the Company
of expenses and profitability; expectations with respect to future operating and financial performance and growth, including the timing
of the completion of the Proposed Business Combination; plans, intentions or future operations of CayCo or the Company relating to attainment,
retention or renewal of any assessments, permits, licenses or other governmental notices or approvals, or the commencement or continuation
of any construction or operations of plants or facilities; CayCo’s ability to execute on their business plans and strategy; and
other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in filings with the SEC. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative
purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction
or a definitive statement of fact or probability.
Although each of SPAC, the Company and CayCo believes
that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this Form 8-K, each of SPAC, the Company and CayCo cautions
you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known and projections of the future, which are inherently
uncertain. These factors are difficult to predict accurately and may be beyond SPAC’s, the Company’s and CayCo’s control.
In addition, there will be risks and uncertainties described in the Registration Statement relating to the Proposed Business Combination,
which is expected to be filed by CayCo with the SEC and other documents filed by SPAC or CayCo from time to time with the SEC. These filings
may identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from
those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements.
There may be additional risks that neither SPAC,
the Company or CayCo presently know or that SPAC, the Company and CayCo currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual
results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking
statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by SPAC, the Company or CayCo, their respective directors,
officers or employees or any other person that SPAC, the Company and CayCo will achieve their objectives and plans in any specified time
frame, or at all. Forward-looking statements in this Form 8-K or elsewhere speak only as of the date made. New uncertainties and risks
arise from time to time, and it is impossible for SPAC, the Company or CayCo to predict these events or how they may affect SPAC, the
Company or CayCo. Except as required by law, neither SPAC nor the Company nor CayCo has any duty to, and does not intend to, update or
revise the forward-looking statements in this Form 8-K or elsewhere after the date this Form 8-K is issued. In light of these risks and
uncertainties, investors should keep in mind that results, events or developments discussed in any forward-looking statement made in this
Form 8-K may not occur. Uncertainties and risk factors that could affect SPAC's, the Company’s and CayCo’s future performance
and cause results to differ from the forward-looking statements in this release include, but are not limited to: the occurrence of any
event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Proposed Business Combination; the risk that the Proposed
Business Combination or other business combination may not be completed by SPAC’s business combination deadline and the potential
failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against
SPAC, the Company or CayCo, the combined company or others following the announcement of the Proposed Business Combination; the inability

Shares or SPAC Exchange Warrants, as applicable, into which such SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or SPAC Warrants shall have been converted
by the Merger. From and after the Merger Effective Time, all previous holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or SPAC Warrants shall
cease to have any rights as shareholders or equityholders of SPAC other than the right to receive such holder’s respective portion
of the SPAC Exchange Shares or the SPAC Exchange Warrants, as applicable, into which such SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and SPAC
Warrants have been converted pursuant to this Agreement, without interest, or, in the case of SPAC Dissenting Shareholders, the right
to receive the applicable payment as set forth in this Section 4.4.
(f) Promptly
following the date that is one (1) year after the Merger Effective Time, CayCo shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to CayCo
all documents in its possession relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate.
Thereafter, any portion of the CayCo Subscription Shares, the SPAC Exchange Shares or SPAC Exchange Warrants, as the case may be, that
remains unclaimed shall be returned to CayCo, and any Person that was a Company Shareholder or a holder of SPAC Class A Ordinary
Shares or SPAC Warrants as of immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time that has not received its portion of the CayCo Subscription
Shares or exchanged SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or SPAC Warrants for an applicable portion of the SPAC Exchange Shares or SPAC
Exchange Warrants, as the case may be, in accordance with this Section 4.4 prior to the date that is one (1) year after
the Merger Effective Time, may transfer such CayCo Subscription Shares, SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares or SPAC Warrants to CayCo and
(subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws) receive in consideration therefor, and CayCo shall promptly deliver,
such applicable portion of the CayCo Subscription Shares, SPAC Exchange Shares or SPAC Exchange Warrants without any interest thereupon.
None of SPAC or the Company Parties or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any of the CayCo Subscription Shares,
SPAC Exchange Shares or SPAC Exchange Warrants delivered to a public official pursuant to and in accordance with any applicable abandoned
property, escheat or similar Laws. If any such shares or warrants shall not have been transferred immediately prior to such date on which
any amounts payable pursuant to this Article IV would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority,
any such amounts shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of CayCo, free and clear of all claims or interest
of any Person previously entitled thereto.
4.5. Directors
and Officers. At and after the Merger Effective Time, the Persons identified as the initial directors and officers of CayCo after
the Merger Effective Time, in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.13, shall be the directors and officers (and in
the case of such officers, holding such positions as set forth on Section 4.5 of the Company Disclosure Letter), respectively,
of CayCo, each to hold office in accordance with the Governing Documents of CayCo, effective as of the Merger Effective Time.
4.6. CayCo

with the terms thereof and the Cayman Companies Act.
4.7. Certain
Adjustments. The number of CayCo Ordinary Shares that each Person is entitled to receive as a result of the Merger or the FST
Restructuring and as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any share subdivision,
reverse share subdivision, share consolidation, share dividend or distribution (including any dividend or distribution of securities
convertible into CayCo Ordinary Shares, as applicable), extraordinary cash dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification,
exchange of shares or other like change with respect to the Company Shares, SPAC Ordinary Shares or CayCo Ordinary Shares, as applicable,
occurring during the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date.
4.8. Fractional
Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, no fraction of a CayCo Ordinary Share shall be issued by virtue of the Merger
or the FST Restructuring, and any Person who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a CayCo Ordinary Share (after aggregating all
fractional CayCo Ordinary Shares that otherwise would be received by such Person) shall receive from CayCo, in lieu of such fractional
share: (i) one (1) CayCo Ordinary Share if the aggregate amount of fractional CayCo Ordinary Shares such Person would otherwise
be entitled to is equal to or exceeds 0.50; or (ii) no CayCo Ordinary Share if the aggregate amount of fractional CayCo Ordinary
Shares such Person would otherwise be entitled to is less than 0.50.
4.9. SPAC
Dissenter’s Right.
(a) Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent available under the Cayman Companies Act, all SPAC Ordinary Shares that
are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time and that are held by any Person who shall have validly exercised
and not effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to dissent from the Merger, in accordance with Section 238 of the Cayman Companies
Act (the “SPAC Dissenting Shares” and holders of SPAC Dissenting Shares being referred to as “SPAC Dissenting
Shareholders”) shall be cancelled and cease to exist at the Merger Effective Time, shall not be entitled to receive the applicable
SPAC Exchange Shares under Section 3.7(a)(iii) and shall instead be entitled to receive only the payment of the fair
value of such SPAC Dissenting Shares held by them determined in accordance with Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Act.
(b) For
the avoidance of doubt, all SPAC Ordinary Shares held by SPAC Dissenting Shareholders who shall have failed to exercise or who shall
have effectively withdrawn or lost their dissenter rights under Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Act shall thereupon (i) not
be deemed to be SPAC Dissenting Shares, and (ii) be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for, at the Merger Effective Time,
the right to receive the applicable SPAC Exchange Shares under Section 3.7(a)(iii) in the manner provided in Section 4.4.
(c) SPAC
shall provide to the Company (i) reasonably prompt notice of any notices of objection or notices of dissent to the Merger or demands
for appraisal under Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Act received by SPAC, attempted withdrawals of such notices, dissents or
demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to the Cayman Companies Act and received by SPAC relating to the exercise of any rights
to dissent from the Merger or appraisal rights and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with
respect to any such notice of dissenter right or demand for appraisal under the Cayman Companies Act. SPAC shall not, except with the
prior written consent of the Company, make any offers or payment with respect to any exercise by a shareholder of its rights to dissent
from the Merger or any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands.
(d) In
the event that any written notice of objection to the Merger is served on SPAC by any SPAC Shareholder pursuant to Section 238(2) of
the Cayman Companies Act, SPAC shall give written notice of the authorization of the Merger to each such SPAC Shareholder within twenty
(20) calendar days of obtaining the SPAC Shareholder Approval, pursuant to and in accordance with Section 238(4) of the Cayman
Companies Act.
4.10. Withholding.
Notwithstanding any other provision to this Agreement, CayCo, SPAC, Merger Sub, the Company and the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall
be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement any such Taxes as may be required to be deducted
and withheld from such amounts under the Code or any other applicable Law (as reasonably determined by CayCo, SPAC, Merger Sub, the Company,
or the Exchange Agent, respectively). To the extent that any amounts are so deducted and withheld, such deducted and withheld amounts
shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding
was made and paid to the applicable Governmental Authority. To the extent any Party hereto becomes aware of any obligation to deduct
or withhold from amounts otherwise payable, issuable or transferable pursuant to this Agreement, such party shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to notify the other Parties hereto at least five (5) days prior to the date of the relevant payment, and the Parties hereto
shall reasonably cooperate to obtain any certificates or other documentation required in respect of such deduction or withholding obligation
and to reduce or eliminate any applicable deduction or withholding.
4.11. Tax
Treatment. The Parties intend that, for United States federal income tax purposes, (a) the FST Restructuring, together with
the Merger, qualifies as a transfer of property described in Section 351 of the Code and Treasury Regulations thereunder,
and/or the Merger qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code (as defined
below), and the Treasury Regulations (as defined below) promulgated thereunder, (b) the SPAC Class B Conversion qualifies as
a “reorganization” under Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder,
and (c) this Agreement is, and is hereby adopted as, a plan of reorganization for purposes of Sections 354, 361 and the 368
of the Code and within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g). None of the Parties knows of any fact or circumstance
(without conducting independent inquiry or diligence of the other relevant party), or has taken or will take any action, if such fact,
circumstance or action would be reasonably expected to cause the Transactions and the FST Restructuring to fail to qualify for the Intended
Tax Treatment. The Transactions and the FST Restructuring shall be reported by the Parties for all Tax purposes in accordance with the
Intended Tax Treatment, unless otherwise required by a Governmental Authority. The Parties hereto shall cooperate with each other and
their respective counsel to document and support the Tax treatment of the Transactions and the FST Restructuring in accordance with the
Intended Tax Treatment, including providing customary representation letters.

Company Benefit Plan on or before the date hereof have been made and all obligations in respect of each Company Benefit Plan as of the

Company Benefit Plan, which is intended to be qualified within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable
determination or opinion letter from the IRS as to its qualification or may rely upon an opinion letter for a prototype plan and, to
the knowledge of the Company, no fact or event has occurred that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the qualified status

a statutory or administrative exemption) with respect to any Company Benefit Plan; and (v) neither the Company nor, to the knowledge
of the Company, any other “fiduciary” (as defined in Section 3(21) of ERISA) has any liability for breach of fiduciary
duty or any other failure to act or comply in connection with the administration or investment of the assets of any Company Benefit Plan.
(c) No
Company Benefit Plan is a multiemployer pension plan (as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA) (a “Multiemployer Plan”)

or terminating any Company Benefit Plan providing health or medical benefits in respect of any active employee of the Group (other than
in accordance with the applicable Company Benefit Plan).
(f) Except

or good standing, and (iii) each such Company Benefit Plan required to be fully funded or fully insured, is fully funded or fully
insured, including any back-service obligations, on an ongoing and termination or solvency basis (determined using reasonable actuarial

performed by it to date under, and is not in default, breach or delinquent in performance or any other respect (claimed or actual) in
connection with, the Trust Agreement, and no event has occurred which, with due notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such
a default or breach thereunder. As of the Merger Effective Time, the obligations of SPAC to dissolve or liquidate pursuant to SPAC’s
Governing Documents shall terminate, and as of the Merger Effective Time, SPAC shall have no obligation whatsoever pursuant to SPAC’s
Governing Documents to dissolve and liquidate the assets of SPAC by reason of the consummation of the Transactions. To SPAC’s knowledge,
as of the date hereof, following the Merger Effective Time, no SPAC Shareholder shall be entitled to receive any amount from the Trust
Account except to the extent such SPAC Shareholder is exercising a SPAC Shareholder Redemption. As of the date hereof, assuming the accuracy
of the representations and warranties of the Company Parties contained herein and the compliance by the Company Parties with their respective

not be satisfied or funds available in the Trust Account will not be available to SPAC on the Closing Date.

Representatives to reasonably cooperate with the accessing Party(ies)
and its Representatives in connection with such access and examination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such access or examination

or (ii) require the disclosing Party(ies) to disclose information that the disclosing Party(ies), based upon the written advice
of outside counsel, reasonably determines would, if disclosed, result in a violation of Law, breach of an existing Contract, or a waiver
of the attorney-client privilege; provided, however, that the disclosing Party(ies) shall use reasonable best efforts to
seek alternative means to disclose such information as nearly as possible without violating such Law, breaching such existing Contract
or adversely affecting such attorney-client privilege, as applicable (including providing such information in summary format and/or entering
into a joint defense or similar arrangement).

7.8. Preparation
of Proxy Statement/Prospectus; Shareholders’ Meeting and Approvals.
(a) Registration
Statement/Prospectus.
(i) As
promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, (x) SPAC and the Company Parties shall jointly prepare and CayCo
shall file with the SEC, mutually acceptable materials, which shall include the proxy statement to be filed with the SEC as part of the
Registration Statement and sent to the SPAC Shareholders relating to the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting (such proxy statement, together
with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Proxy Statement”) and (y) SPAC and the Company shall prepare
and CayCo shall file with the SEC the Registration Statement, in which the Proxy Statement will be included as a prospectus (the “Proxy
Statement/Prospectus”), in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of CayCo Ordinary Shares that will be
issued in connection with the Merger and the FST Restructuring (the “Registration Statement Securities”). Each of
SPAC and the Company Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to comply with the
rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, (ii) respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to and resolve all comments
received from the SEC concerning the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, and (iii) have the Registration Statement declared effective under
the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing and to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary
to consummate the Transactions and the FST Restructuring. In the event there is any tax opinion, comfort letter or other opinion required
to be provided in connection with the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, neither this provision nor
any other provision in this Agreement shall require counsel to the Company or SPAC or their respective tax advisors to provide an opinion
that the Merger or the FST Restructuring qualifies as a transaction described in Section 351 of the Code or otherwise qualifies
for the Intended Tax Treatment. The Company Parties also agree to use their best efforts to obtain all necessary state securities law
or “Blue Sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the Transactions and the FST Restructuring, and the Company Parties
shall furnish all information concerning the Company Parties or their respective shareholders as may be reasonably requested in connection
with any such action. Each of SPAC and the Company agrees to furnish to the other Party all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries,
officers, directors, managers, shareholders and other equityholders and information regarding such other matters as may be reasonably
necessary or advisable or as may be reasonably requested in connection with the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, a Current Report on Form 8-K
pursuant to the Exchange Act in connection with the Transactions and the FST Restructuring, or any other statement, filing, notice or
application made by or on behalf of SPAC, the Company Parties or their respective Subsidiaries to any regulatory authority (including
the applicable Stock Exchange) in connection with the Transactions and the FST Restructuring (the “Offer Documents”).
SPAC will cause the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be disseminated to the SPAC Shareholders, in each case, promptly after the Registration
Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act. CayCo as the filer and registrant of the Registration Statement shall be responsible
for and pay all of the cost for the preparation, filing and mailing of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and other related fees.
(ii) To
the extent not prohibited by Law, the Company Parties will advise SPAC reasonably promptly after CayCo or the Company receives notice
thereof, of the time when the Proxy Statement/Prospectus has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, of the issuance
of any stop order or the suspension of the qualification of CayCo Ordinary Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the initiation
or written threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, or of any request by the SEC for the amendment or supplement of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus
or for additional information. To the extent not prohibited by Law, SPAC and its counsel, on the one hand, and the Company and its counsel,
on the other hand, shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Proxy Statement, the Registration Statement and
any Offer Document each time before any such document is filed with the SEC, and the other Party shall give reasonable and good faith
consideration to any comments made by such Party and its counsel. To the extent not prohibited by Law, SPAC and the Company Parties shall
provide the other party and its counsel with (A) any comments or other communications, whether written or oral, that SPAC or its
counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Proxy Statement, Registration Statement or Offer
Documents promptly after receipt of those comments or other communications and (B) a reasonable opportunity to participate in the
response of such party to those comments and to provide comments on that response (to which reasonable and good faith consideration shall
be given), including by participating with the Company or its counsel in any discussions or meetings with the SEC.
(iii) Each
of SPAC and the Company Parties shall ensure that none of the information supplied by or on its behalf for inclusion or incorporation
by reference in (A) the Registration Statement will, at the time the Registration Statement is filed with the SEC, at each time
at which it is amended and at the time it becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, not misleading or (B) the
Proxy Statement will not, at the date it is first mailed to the SPAC Shareholders and at the time of the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting,
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.
(iv) If,
at any time prior to the Merger Effective Time, any information relating to the Company Parties, SPAC or any of their respective Subsidiaries,
Affiliates, directors or officers is discovered by the Company Parties or SPAC, which is required to be set forth in an amendment or
supplement to the Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement, so that neither of such documents would include any misstatement of
a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, with respect to the Proxy Statement, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify
the other parties and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to
the extent required by Law, disseminated to the SPAC Shareholders.
(b) SPAC
Shareholder Approval.
(i) SPAC
shall (a) as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, (i) cause
the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be disseminated to SPAC Shareholders in compliance with applicable Law, (ii) solely with respect
to the following clause (1), duly (1) give notice of and (2) convene and hold an extraordinary general meeting of the
SPAC Shareholders (the “SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting”) in accordance with the SPAC Articles and the NASDAQ rules and
regulations for a date no later than thirty-five (35) Business Days following the date the Registration Statement is declared effective,
and (iii) solicit proxies from the holders of SPAC Ordinary Shares to vote in favor of each of the SPAC Transaction Proposals, and
(b) provide its shareholders with the opportunity to elect to effect an SPAC Shareholder Redemption. SPAC shall, through the SPAC
Board, recommend to its shareholders the approval of the SPAC Transaction Proposals (the “SPAC Board Recommendation”)
and include such recommendation in the Proxy Statement. The SPAC Board shall not withdraw, amend, qualify or modify its recommendation
to the SPAC Shareholders that they vote in favor of the SPAC Transaction Proposals.
(ii) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, at any time prior to, but not after, obtaining the SPAC Shareholder Approval, solely in response to an Intervening Event,
the SPAC Board may fail to make, amend, change, withdraw, modify, withhold or qualify the SPAC Board Recommendation (any such action,
a “Change in Recommendation”) if the SPAC Board shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside
legal counsel, that, in response to such Intervening Event, a failure to make a Change in Recommendation would be inconsistent with its
fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, that the SPAC Board will not be entitled to make, or agree or resolve to make,
a Change in Recommendation until (a) SPAC delivers to the Company a written notice (an “SPAC Intervening Event Notice”)
advising the Company that the SPAC Board proposes to take such action and containing the material facts underlying the SPAC Board’s
determination that an Intervening Event has occurred, (b) until 5:00 p.m., Hong Kong time, on the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately
following the day on which SPAC delivered the SPAC Intervening Event Notice (such period from the time the SPAC Intervening Event Notice
is provided until 5:00 p.m. Hong Kong time on the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately following the day on which SPAC delivered
the SPAC Intervening Event Notice, the “SPAC Intervening Event Notice Period”), SPAC and its Representatives shall
have negotiated in good faith with the Company and its Representatives regarding any revisions or adjustments proposed by the Company
during the SPAC Intervening Event Notice Period to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable SPAC to proceed with its
recommendation of this Agreement and the Transactions and not make such Change in Recommendation, and (c) if the Company requested
negotiations in accordance with the foregoing clause (b), SPAC may make a Change in Recommendation only if the SPAC Board, after considering
in good faith any revisions or adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement that the Company shall have, prior to the expiration
of the five (5)-Business Day period, offered in writing in a manner that would form a binding Contract if accepted by SPAC (and the other
applicable parties hereto), reaffirms in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to make a Change
in Recommendation would violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, a Change in Recommendation will
not affect SPAC’s obligations pursuant to this Section 7.8(b) (other than as set forth in the immediately preceding
sentence) or elsewhere in this Agreement.
(iii) To
the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, (x) SPAC agrees to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene
and hold the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting and submit for approval the SPAC Transaction Proposals and (y) SPAC agrees that if
the SPAC Shareholder Approval shall not have been obtained at any such SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, then SPAC shall promptly continue
to take all such necessary actions, including the actions required by this Section 7.8(b), and hold additional SPAC Shareholders’
Meetings in order to obtain the SPAC Shareholder Approval. SPAC may only adjourn the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting (i) to solicit
additional proxies for the purpose of obtaining the SPAC Shareholder Approval, (ii) for the absence of a quorum (either in person
or by proxy), (iii) to the extent necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus that SPAC
or the Company reasonably determines is necessary to comply with applicable Laws, is provided to the SPAC Shareholders in advance of
a vote on the adoption of SPAC Transaction Proposals, (iv) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing or mailing of any
supplemental or amended disclosure that SPAC has determined in good faith after consultation with outside legal counsel is required under
applicable Law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by SPAC Shareholders prior to the SPAC
Shareholders’ Meeting, (v) in order to seek withdrawals from SPAC Shareholders who have exercised their SPAC Shareholder Redemption
right if a number of SPAC Ordinary Shares have been elected to be redeemed such that SPAC reasonably expects that the condition set forth
in Section 8.3 will not be satisfied at the Closing, and (vi) to comply with applicable Law; provided, that the
SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting (x) may not be adjourned to a date that is more than fifteen (15) calendar days after the
date for which the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting was originally scheduled (excluding any adjournments required by applicable Law) and
(y) shall not be held later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Agreement End Date. SPAC agrees that it shall provide
the holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares the opportunity to elect redemption of such SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in connection
with the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting, as required by SPAC’s Governing Documents.
(c) Company
Shareholder Approval.
(i) The
Company shall (i) obtain and deliver to SPAC the Company Shareholder Approval, (x) through a shareholders meeting, and (y) in
accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Company’s Governing Documents; and (ii) take all other action
necessary or advisable to secure the Company Shareholder Approval and, if applicable, any additional consents or approvals of its shareholders
related thereto as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than forty five (45) Business Days after the date of this Agreement.
(ii) The
Company shall send the Company Shareholder Approval to SPAC immediately after the Company has received such approval, which shall include
in all such shareholders materials it sends to the Company Shareholders in connection with the Company Shareholder Approval, including
a statement to the effect that the Company Board has approved the FST Restructuring and the Transactions (such statement, the “Company
Board Recommendation”) and neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or
modify, or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify, the Company Board Recommendation.
7.9. Support
of Transaction(a) .
(a) Without
limiting any covenant contained in Article VII, the Group, CayCo and Merger Sub shall, and SPAC shall (a) use reasonable
best efforts to obtain as soon as practicable all material consents and approvals of third parties (including any Governmental Authority)
that any of SPAC, the Group, CayCo or Merger Sub, or their respective Affiliates are required to obtain in order to consummate the Merger
and the FST Restructuring, and (b) take such other action as soon as practicable as may be reasonably necessary or as another Party
hereto may reasonably request to satisfy the conditions of Article VIII (including the use of reasonable best efforts to

the Transactions and the FST Restructuring as soon as practicable and in accordance with all applicable Law.
(b) The
Company Parties and their respective Affiliates shall take all actions as soon as practicable and as may be reasonably necessary to (i) implement

Section 2.7; and (iii) shall keep SPAC, the Sponsor and their respective Representatives informed of all developments
in respect of the FST Withdrawal and Squeeze Out, and share all material communication or written agreements with the Company Shareholders.
7.10. Regulatory
Approvals; Other Filings.
(a) Each
of the Company Parties and SPAC shall use their reasonable best efforts to cooperate in good faith with any Governmental Authority and
to undertake promptly any and all action required to obtain any necessary or advisable regulatory approvals, consents, Actions, non-actions
or waivers in connection with the Transactions (the “Regulatory Approvals”) as soon as practicable and any and all
action necessary to consummate the Transactions as contemplated hereby. Each of the Company Parties and SPAC shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause the expiration or termination of the waiting, notice or review periods under any applicable Regulatory Approval with
respect to the Transactions as promptly as possible after the execution of this Agreement.
(b) With
respect to each of the Regulatory Approvals and any other requests, inquiries, Actions or other proceedings by or from Governmental Authorities,

written communications by such party or its Affiliates to any Governmental Authority concerning the Transactions; provided, however,
that none of the Parties shall enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority relating to any Regulatory Approval contemplated
in this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties. To the extent not prohibited by Law, the Company Parties agree
to provide SPAC and its counsel, and SPAC agrees to provide the Company and its counsel, the opportunity, on reasonable advance notice,
to participate in any substantive meetings or discussions, either in person or by telephone, between such Party and/or any of its Affiliates,
agents or advisors, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority, on the other hand, concerning or in connection with the Transactions.
Any such provisions of information, rights to participate or consultations between the parties may be made on a counsel-only or outside
counsel-only basis to the extent required under applicable Law or as appropriate to protect sensitive business information or maintain
attorney-client or other privilege; provided, that SPAC may redact materials to address reasonable privilege or confidentiality
concerns, and to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company or SPAC’s consideration of the Transactions or other
competitively sensitive material.
(c) The
Company Parties shall cooperate in good faith with any Governmental Authority and undertake promptly any and all action required to obtain

cooperate in a timely manner in connection with any financing arrangement the parties seek in connection with the Transactions (it being
understood and agreed that the consummation of any such financing by the Company or SPAC shall be subject to the parties’ mutual
agreement), including (a) by providing such information and assistance as the other party may reasonably request (including the
Company providing such financial statements and other financial data relating to the Group as would be required if CayCo were filing
a general form for registration of securities under Form 10 following the consummation of the Transactions and a registration statement
on Form F-1 for the resale of the securities sold in the PIPE Investment prior to or concurrently with the consummation of the Transactions),
(b) granting such access to the other party and its representatives as may be reasonably necessary for their due diligence, and
(c) participating in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, road shows, drafting sessions, due diligence sessions with
respect to such financing efforts (including direct contact between senior management and other representatives of the Group at reasonable
times and locations). All such cooperation, assistance and access shall be granted during normal business hours and shall be granted
under conditions that shall not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of the Company, SPAC, or their respective auditors.
7.12. Employee
Matters.
(a) Equity
Plan. Prior to the Closing Date, CayCo may approve and adopt the New Equity Incentive Plan, in a form with customary terms and
conditions that is reasonably agreed by and between SPAC and the Company. Within ten (10) Business Days following the expiration
of the sixty (60) day period following the date CayCo has filed current Form 10 information with the SEC reflecting its status as
an entity that is not a shell company, CayCo shall file an effective registration statement on Form S-8 (or other applicable form,
including Form F-3) with respect to CayCo Ordinary Shares issuable under the New Equity Incentive Plan.
(b) No
Third-Party Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Parties to this Agreement acknowledges
and agrees that all provisions contained in this Section 7.12 are included for the sole benefit of SPAC and the Company,
and that nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, (i) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any employee
benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, (ii) shall limit the right of SPAC, the Company or their respective Affiliates
to amend, terminate or otherwise modify any Company Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement following
the Closing Date, or (iii) shall confer upon any Person who is not a party to this Agreement (including any equityholder, any current
or former director, manager, officer, employee or independent contractor of the Company or any participant in any Company Benefit Plan
or other employee benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof)), any right to continued or
resumed employment or recall, any right to compensation or benefits or any third-party beneficiary or other right of any kind or nature
whatsoever.
7.13. Post-Closing
Directors and Officers of CayCo. Subject to the terms of CayCo’s Governing Documents, CayCo shall take all such action
within its power as may be necessary or appropriate such that immediately following the Merger Effective Time:
(a) the
CayCo Board shall consist of five (5) directors, at least three (3) of whom shall be “independent” directors for
the purposes of the applicable Stock Exchange rules (each, an “Independent Director”), to initially consist of:
(i) one
(1) director to be nominated by the Sponsor; and
(ii) four
(4) directors to be nominated by the Company, at least three (3) of whom shall be Independent Directors, in consultation with
the Sponsor;
(b) the
chairperson of the CayCo Board shall serve in such capacity in accordance with the terms of CayCo’s Governing Documents following
the Merger Effective Time; and
(c) the
initial officers of CayCo shall be as set forth on Section 4.5 of the Company Disclosure Letter, who shall serve in such
capacity in accordance with the terms of CayCo’s Governing Documents following the Merger Effective Time.
7.14. Indemnification
and Insurance.
(a) From
and after the Merger Effective Time, CayCo and the Company agree that they shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former
director and officer of the SPAC and each of its Subsidiaries (the “SPAC Indemnified Parties”) against any costs
or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection
with any Legal Proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing
or occurring at or prior to the Merger Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Merger Effective Time, to
the fullest extent that SPAC or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, would have been permitted under applicable Law and their respective
certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation, bylaws, limited liability company agreement or other organizational documents
in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify such SPAC Indemnified Parties (including the advancing of expenses as incurred to
the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law). Without limiting the foregoing, CayCo and the Company shall, and shall cause its
Subsidiaries (as applicable) to (i) maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Merger Effective Time provisions
in its Governing Documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of SPAC’s
and its Subsidiaries’ former and current officers, directors, employees, and agents that are no less favorable to those Persons
than the provisions of the Governing Documents of the CayCo or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, in each case, as of the date of this
Agreement, and (ii) not amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights
of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by Law. CayCo shall assume, and be liable for, each of the covenants in
this Section 7.14.
(b) For
a period of six (6) years from the Merger Effective Time, CayCo shall maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability
insurance (the “D&O Tail”) covering those Persons who are currently covered by SPAC’s or its Subsidiaries’
directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (true, correct and complete copies of which have been heretofore made
available to SPAC or its agents or representatives) on terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage; provided,
however, that (i) SPAC may cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability
insurance by obtaining a six (6) year “tail” policy containing terms not materially less favorable than the terms of
such current insurance coverage with respect to claims existing or occurring at or prior to the Merger Effective Time, and (ii) if
any claim is asserted or made within such six (6)-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 7.14
shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof. The cost of the D&O Tail shall be borne by the
Company.
(c) The
rights of the SPAC Indemnified Parties hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such person may
have under CayCo’s Governing Documents, any other indemnification arrangement, applicable Law or otherwise. The obligations of
CayCo and the Company under this Section 7.14 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect
any SPAC Indemnified Parties without the consent of such SPAC Indemnified Parties. The provisions of this Section 7.14 shall
survive the Closing indefinitely and expressly are intended to benefit, and are enforceable by, each of the SPAC Indemnified Parties,
each of whom is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 7.14.

who may become subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act in connection with the Transactions
or the FST Restructuring to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.
7.16. Trust

of SPAC and the Company Parties shall (i) use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Transactions and the FST
Restructuring under this Agreement to qualify, and agree not to, and not to permit or cause any of their Affiliates or Subsidiaries to,
take any action which to its knowledge could reasonably be expected to prevent, impair or impede the Transactions and the FST Restructuring
from qualifying, for the Intended Tax Treatment. Each of SPAC and the Company Parties shall report the Transactions and the FST Restructuring
consistently with the Intended Tax Treatment and the immediately preceding sentence unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination”
within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code or a change in applicable Law. The Parties shall cooperate with each other

written request by a shareholder that has made (or whose direct and/or indirect owners have made) a “Qualified Electing Fund”
election in accordance with applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations, CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make available income
statement and balance sheet data reasonably necessary for such shareholder (or direct and/or indirect owner of such shareholder) to comply
with the requirements of such “Qualified Electing Fund” election. The obligations under this Section 7.20(b) shall
survive after the Closing.

Trading. The Company Parties acknowledge and agree that they are aware, and that the Company’s Affiliates have been made
aware of the restrictions imposed by U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder

company. The Company hereby agrees that it shall not purchase or sell any securities of SPAC in violation of such Laws, or cause or encourage
any Person to do the foregoing.

Litigation. In the event that any shareholder litigation related to this Agreement, the Company Restructuring Documents or the
other Transaction Agreements or the Transactions or the FST Restructuring is brought or threatened in writing against SPAC or the Company
Parties, or any of the respective members of their boards of directors, after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Merger Effective

in writing of any such Shareholder Litigation and shall keep the other Party reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof.

notify the other Party of:
(a) any
notice from any Person alleging or raising the possibility that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the
Transactions or the FST Restructuring or that the Transactions or the FST Restructuring might give rise to any material Action or other
material rights by or on behalf of such Person or result in the loss of any material rights or privileges of the Company (or CayCo, post-Closing)
to any such Person or create any Lien on any of the Company’s or SPAC’s assets;

matter or circumstance that would or would be reasonably likely to give rise to or result in a Company Material Adverse Effect; and

and private placements of its securities and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account for the benefit
of SPAC, certain of its public shareholders and the underwriters of SPAC’s initial public offering (the “Trust Account”).
Each of the Company Parties acknowledges that it has been advised by SPAC that funds in the Trust Account may be disbursed only in accordance
with the Trust Agreement and SPAC’s Governing Documents. For and in consideration of SPAC entering into this Agreement, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each of the Company Parties hereby irrevocably waives any right, title, interest or
claim of any kind it has or may have in the future in or to any monies in the Trust Account and agree not to seek recourse against the
Trust Account or any funds distributed therefrom as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement and any negotiations, Contracts or
agreements with SPAC; provided, that (x) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit the Company’s right to pursue
a claim against SPAC for legal relief against monies or other assets held outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other

under this Agreement and cause the disbursement of the balance of the cash remaining in the Trust Account (after giving effect to the

claim would not affect SPAC’s ability to fulfill its obligation to effectuate the SPAC Shareholder Redemptions, or for fraud, and
(y) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit any claims that the Company may have in the future against SPAC’s assets
or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account and any assets that

Each provision in this Agreement may only be waived by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by the party
against whom enforcement of any such provision so waived is sought. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation
by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation,
warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall
not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure
on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof,
nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that (i) there
is adequate remedy at law or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity.
Any Party seeking an order or injunction to prevent breaches or threatened breaches and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions
of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to, this Agreement), may be made only against (and such
representations and warranties are those solely of) the Persons that are expressly identified as parties in the preamble to this Agreement

or related in any manner to this Agreement or based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or its negotiation, execution,
performance or breach (other than as set forth in the Ancillary Agreements), and, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, each Contracting
Party hereby waives and releases all such liabilities, claims, causes of action, and obligations against any such Nonparty Affiliates.
Without limiting the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, except to the extent otherwise set forth in the Ancillary Agreements:
(a) each Contracting Party hereby waives and releases any and all rights, claims, demands, or causes of action that may otherwise
be available at law or in equity, or granted by statute, to avoid or disregard the entity form of a Contracting Party or otherwise impose
liability of a Contracting Party on any Nonparty Affiliate, whether granted by statute or based on theories of equity, agency, control,
instrumentality, alter ego, domination, sham, single business enterprise, piercing the veil, unfairness, undercapitalization, or otherwise;
and (b) each Contracting Party disclaims any reliance upon any Nonparty Affiliates with respect to the performance of this Agreement
or any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to this Agreement.

or holders of other equity interests of the Sponsor or of SPAC or any of their respective directors, members, partners, officers, employees
or Affiliates (other than the Merger Surviving Company) (collectively, the “W&C WP Group”), in each case, solely
in connection with any Action or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, notwithstanding its prior representation of the Sponsor, SPAC and its Subsidiaries, or other W&C
Waiving Parties. Each of the Parties, on behalf of itself and the W&C Waiving Parties, hereby consents thereto and irrevocably waives
(and will not assert) any conflict of interest, breach of duty or any other objection arising from or relating to W&C’s prior
representation of the Sponsor, SPAC and its Subsidiaries, or other W&C Waiving Parties. Each of the Parties, for itself and the W&C
Waiving Parties, hereby further irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that all privileged communications, written or oral, between the
Sponsor, SPAC, or its Subsidiaries, or any other member of the W&C WP Group, on the one hand, and W&C (in its role as counsel
to SPAC), on the other hand, made prior to the Closing, in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance
under, or any dispute or Action arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreements or the transactions contemplated

Company notwithstanding the Merger, and instead survive, remain with and are controlled by the W&C WP Group (the “W&C
Privileged Communications”), without any waiver thereof. The Parties, together with any of their respective Affiliates, Subsidiaries,
successors or assigns, agree that no Person may use or rely on any of the W&C Privileged Communications, whether located in the records
or email server of the Merger Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries, in any Action against or involving any of the Parties after the
Closing, and the Parties agree not to assert that any privilege has been waived as to the W&C Privileged Communications, by virtue
of the Merger.

“Form F-1 Shelf”) or a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form F-3 (the “Form F-3
Shelf”, together with the Form F-1 Shelf, the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”, as the case may
be), if CayCo is then eligible to use a Form F-3 Shelf, in each case, for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant
to Rule 415 of the Securities Act registering the resale from time to time by Holders of all of the Registrable Securities (determined
as of two (2) Business Days prior to such submission or filing). CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale
Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as possible after filing, but no later than the earlier of (a) the
thirtieth (30th) calendar day following the filing date hereof if the Commission notifies CayCo that it will “review” the
Registration Statement, and (b) the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date CayCo is notified (orally or in writing, whichever
is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review,
and once effective, to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act at all times until
the expiration of the Effectiveness Period. In the event CayCo files a Form F-1 Shelf, CayCo shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to convert the Form F-1 Shelf (and any subsequent Resale Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form F-3 Shelf as soon
as practicable after CayCo is eligible to use a Form F-3 Shelf. CayCo’s obligation under this Section 2.1.1, shall,
for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.2.
2.1.2 Notification
and Distribution of Materials. CayCo shall notify the Holders in writing of the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement
and shall furnish to them, without charge, such number of copies of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (including any amendments,
supplements and exhibits), the Prospectus contained therein (including each preliminary prospectus and all related amendments and supplements)
and any documents incorporated by reference in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or such other documents as the Holders may reasonably
request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities in the manner described in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement.
2.1.3 Amendments
and Supplements. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1.1 above, CayCo shall promptly prepare and file with the Commission
from time to time such amendments and supplements to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus used in connection therewith,
as may be necessary to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act,
with respect to the disposition of all the Registrable Securities during the Effectiveness Period. If a Resale Shelf Registration Statement
ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, CayCo
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable (a) cause such Resale Shelf Registration Statement
to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of
any order suspending the effectiveness of such Resale Shelf Registration Statement), (b) amend such Resale Shelf Registration Statement
in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Resale Shelf Registration
Statement, or (c) prepare and file an additional Resale Shelf Registration Statement (a “Subsequent Shelf”) registering
the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing), and pursuant to any method
or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. If a Subsequent Shelf is filed pursuant to
this Section 2.1.3, CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) cause such Subsequent Shelf to become effective
under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof, and (b) keep such Subsequent Shelf continuously
effective, available for use and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable
Securities. Any such Subsequent Shelf shall be on Form F-3 to the extent that CayCo is eligible to use such form, and shall be an
automatic shelf registration statement as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act if CayCo is a well-known, seasoned
issuer as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act, at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date.
CayCo’s obligation under this Section 2.1.3, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.2.
2.1.4 Change
in Registration. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2.1, in the event the Commission
informs CayCo that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale
as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, CayCo agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the holders thereof and use
its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or
(ii) withdraw the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”),
in either case covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission, on Form F-3 or
such other form available, to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however,
that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, CayCo shall be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts
to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available, written
or oral guidance; comments; requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the “SEC Guidance”), including without
limitation, the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations D.29. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if
any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration
Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that CayCo used diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration
of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a holder as to its Registrable Securities,
the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis, based
on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders, and subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders
must be reduced first, based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders. In the event that CayCo amends the Resale Shelf
Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, CayCo will
use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to
CayCo or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form F-3 or such other form available, to
register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, as amended,
or the New Registration Statement.
2.1.5 Notice
of Certain Events. CayCo shall promptly notify the Holders in writing of any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement
to, or additional information in connection with, the Resale Shelf Registration Statement required to be prepared and filed hereunder
(or Prospectus relating thereto). CayCo shall promptly notify each Holder, in writing, of the filing of the Resale Shelf Registration
Statement or any Prospectus, amendment or supplement related thereto, or any post-effective amendment to the Resale Shelf Registration
Statement, and of the effectiveness of any post-effective amendment.
2.1.6 Underwritten
Takedown.
(a) If
CayCo shall receive a request from the holders of Registrable Securities with an estimated market value of at least US$10 million (the
requesting holder(s) shall be referred to herein as the (“Requesting Holder”)) that CayCo effect the Underwritten
Takedown of all or any portion of the Requesting Holder’s Registrable Securities, and specifying the intended method of disposition
thereof, then CayCo shall promptly give notice of such requested, Underwritten Takedown (each such request shall be referred to herein
as a (“Demand Takedown”)) at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of the prospectus
or supplement relating to such Demand Takedown to the other Holders, and thereupon shall use its reasonable, best efforts to effect, as
expeditiously as possible, the offering in such Underwritten Takedown of:
(i) subject
to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.2.4, all Registrable Securities for which the Requesting Holder has requested such
offering under Section 2.1.6(a), and
(ii) subject
to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.2.4, all other Registrable Securities that any holders of Registrable Securities
(all such holders, together with the Requesting Holder, the “Selling Holders”) have requested CayCo to offer by request,
received by CayCo within seven (7) Business Days after such holders receive CayCo’s notice of the Demand Takedown, all to the
extent necessary to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities
so to be offered.
(b) Promptly
after the expiration of the seven (7)-Business Day-period referred to in Section 2.1.6(a)(ii), CayCo will notify all Selling
Holders of the identities of the other Selling Holders and the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein.
(c) CayCo
shall only be required to effectuate no more than three (3) Underwritten Takedowns in any twelve (12)-month period, after giving
effect to Section 2.2.1.
(d) If
the managing underwriter in an Underwritten Takedown advises CayCo and the Requesting Holder(s) that, in its view, the number of
shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such underwritten offering exceeds the largest number of shares that can
be sold without having an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such shares can be sold, the shares included in
such Underwritten Takedown will be reduced by the Registrable Securities held by the Selling Holders (applied on a pro rata basis,
based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders, subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders
must be reduced first, based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders).
2.1.7 Selection
of Underwriters. The Requesting Holder shall have the right to select an Underwriter or Underwriters in connection with such Underwritten
Takedown, which Underwriter or Underwriters selected shall be reasonably acceptable to CayCo. In connection with an Underwritten Takedown,
CayCo shall enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are
reasonably required, in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Takedown,
including, if necessary, the engagement of a “qualified independent underwriter” in connection with the qualification of
the underwriting arrangements with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
2.1.8 Registrations
effected pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.2.
2.1.9 Block
Trades. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if a Requesting Holder wishes to consummate a Block Trade (on either
a Commission registered or non-registered basis), then notwithstanding the time periods and piggyback rights otherwise provided herein,
such Requesting Holder shall, if it would like the assistance of CayCo, endeavor to give CayCo sufficient advance notice in order to
prepare the appropriate documentation for such transaction. Such Requesting Holder, if requesting a Commission registered underwritten
Block Trade, (1) shall give CayCo written notice of the transaction and the anticipated launch date of the transaction at least
two (2) Business Days prior to the anticipated launch date of the transaction, (2) CayCo shall be required to only notify the
other Requesting Holders of the transaction and none of the other Holders, (3) the other Requesting Holders shall have one (1) Business
Day prior to the launch of the transaction to determine if they wish to participate in the Block Trade, and (4) CayCo shall include
in the Block Trade only shares held by the Requesting Holders. Any Registration effected pursuant to this Section 2.1.9 shall
not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.2, but shall be deemed an Underwritten Takedown, and
within the cap on Underwritten Takedowns provided in Section 2.1.6(c). The Requesting Holder in a Block Trade shall have
the right to select the Underwriters for such Block Trade (which shall consist of one or more reputable, nationally recognized investment
banks).
2.2 Demand
Registration.
2.2.1 Request
for Registration. During such time when there is no effective Resale Shelf Registration Statement, at any time, and from time to
time after the Merger Effective Time, if any, (i) the SPAC Holders who hold at least fifteen per cent (15%) of the Registrable Securities
held by all SPAC Holders or (ii) Company Holders who hold US$20 million of the Registrable Securities held by all Company Holders,
as the case may be, may make a written demand for Registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities
on Form F-1 or any similar, long-form Registration or, if then available, on Form F-3. Each registration requested pursuant
to this Section 2.2.1 is referred to herein as a “Demand Registration”. Any demand for a Demand Registration
shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof.
CayCo will, within five (5) days of its receipt of the Demand Registration, notify all Holders that are holders of Registrable Securities
of the demand, and each such holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion of such holder’s Registrable
Securities in the Demand Registration (each such holder including shares of Registrable Securities in such registration, a “Demanding
Holder”) shall so notify CayCo within five (5) days after the receipt by the holder of the notice from CayCo. Upon any
such request, the Demanding Holders shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject
to Section 2.2.4 and the provisos set forth in Section 3.1.1. CayCo shall not be obligated to effect: (a) more
than one (1) Demand Registration during any six (6)-month period; or (b) more than six (6) Underwritten Demand Registrations
in respect of all Registrable Securities held by the Holders, provided that if the Registrable Securities sought to be included
in the Registration pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 are not fully included in such Registration for any reason other than
solely due to the action or inaction of the Holders, then such Registration shall not be deemed to constitute a Demand Registration pursuant
to this Section 2.2.1.
2.2.2 Effective
Registration. A Registration will not count as a Demand Registration unless and until (i) the Registration Statement filed with
the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective by the Commission and (ii) CayCo has complied
with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration
Statement has been declared effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by
any stop order or injunction of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court, the Registration Statement with respect to
such Demand Registration will be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction
is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders thereafter elect to continue
the offering.
2.2.3 Underwritten
Offering. If the Demanding Holders so elect and such holders so advise CayCo as part of their written demand for a Demand Registration,
the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering with
an estimated market value of at least US$10 million. In such an event, the right of any holder to include its Registrable Securities
in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting, and the inclusion of such holder’s
Registrable Securities in the underwriting, to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable
Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters
selected for such underwriting by the holders initiating the Demand Registration, and subject to the approval of CayCo, provided
that such approval shall not be withheld by CayCo unreasonably.
2.2.4 Reduction
of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises
CayCo and the Demanding Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding Holders
desire to sell, taken together with all other CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities which CayCo desires to sell and CayCo Ordinary
Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other
shareholders of CayCo who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such offering
without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering
(such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, the (“Maximum Number of Shares”)), then CayCo
shall include in such registration: (i) the Registrable Securities as to which Demand Registration has been requested by the Demanding
Holders (pro rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such Person has requested be included in such registration, regardless
of the number of shares held by each such Person (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that
can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached
under the foregoing clause (i), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities that CayCo desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding
the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses
(i) and (ii), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of other Persons that CayCo is obligated to register pursuant
to written contractual arrangements with such Persons, as to which “piggy-back” registration has been requested by the holders
thereof, Pro Rata, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.
2.2.5 Withdrawal.
If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwriting or are not entitled to include all of
their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw from such offering
by giving written notice to CayCo and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. If the majority-in-interest of the Demanding
Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration, then either the Demanding Holders shall reimburse CayCo
for the costs associated with the withdrawn registration (in which case such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration provided
for in Section 2.2) or the withdrawn registration shall count as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.2.
2.3 Piggy-Back
Registration.
2.3.1 Piggy-Back
Rights. If CayCo proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity
securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by CayCo for
its own account or for shareholders of CayCo for their account (or by CayCo and by shareholders of CayCo) including, without limitation,
pursuant to Section 2.1, other than a Registration Statement (i) filed pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof; (ii) filed
in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (iii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely
to CayCo’s existing shareholders, (iv) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of CayCo, (v) filed
on Form F-4, related to any merger, acquisition or business combination, (vi) for a dividend reinvestment plan or (vii) filed
in connection with a Block Trade by one or more holders of Registrable Securities in accordance with Section 2.1.9, then
CayCo shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but
in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities
to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters,
if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale
of such number of Registrable Securities as such holders may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice
(a “Piggy-Back Registration”). CayCo shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggy-Back Registration
and, if applicable, shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering
to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar
securities of CayCo, and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of
distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration
that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form, with the Underwriter or Underwriters
selected for such Piggy-Back Registration.
2.3.2 Reduction
of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises
CayCo and the holders of Registrable Securities in writing that the dollar amount or number of CayCo Ordinary Shares which CayCo desires
to sell, taken together with CayCo Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to written contractual
arrangements with Persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder and the Registrable Securities as to which registration
has been requested under this Section 2.3, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then CayCo shall include in any such registration:
(a) If
the Registration is undertaken for CayCo’s account: (i) CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities that CayCo desires to sell
that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (ii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not
been reached under the foregoing clause (i), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, as
to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares,
Pro Rata; and (iii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and
(ii), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that CayCo is obligated to register pursuant to written
contractual piggy-back registration rights with such Persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and
(b) If
the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of Persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities,
(i) CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of the demanding Persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum
Number of Shares; (ii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), CayCo
Ordinary Shares or other securities that CayCo desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) to
the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), CayCo Ordinary Shares
or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration has been requested pursuant
to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (iv) to the extent that the Maximum Number
of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the
account of other Persons that CayCo is obligated to register, pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such Persons, that can
be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.
2.3.3 Withdrawal.
Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any
Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to CayCo of such request to withdraw, prior to the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement. CayCo (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by Persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual
obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding
any such withdrawal, CayCo shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Registrable Securities in connection with such Piggy-Back
Registration, as provided in Section 3.3.
2.3.4 Unlimited
Piggy-Back Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof shall not be counted
as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.2 hereof, and there shall be no limit on the
number of Piggy-Back Registrations.
Article 3
REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.
3.1 Filings;
Information. Whenever CayCo is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Article 2
or effecting an underwritten Block Trade, CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and sale of
such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof as expeditiously as practicable, and
in connection with any such request:
3.1.1 Filing
Registration Statement. CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, as expeditiously as possible after receipt of a request
for a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.2, prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement on any form
for which CayCo then qualifies or which counsel for CayCo shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale of all
Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof, and shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and use its commercially reasonable
efforts to keep it effective for the Effectiveness Period; provided, however, that CayCo shall have the right to defer
any Demand Registration for up to sixty (60) days, and any Piggy-Back Registration for such period as may be applicable to deferment
of any “demand” registration to which such Piggy-Back Registration relates, in each case if CayCo shall furnish to the holders
a certificate signed by the chief executive officer or chief financial officer of CayCo stating that, in the good faith judgment of the
Board, it would be materially detrimental to CayCo and its shareholders for such Registration Statement to be effected at such time.
3.1.2 Limitations.
CayCo shall not have the right to exercise the right set forth in the immediately preceding section on more than one occasion for more
than sixty (60) total days in aggregate during any twelve (12)-month period.
3.1.3 Copies.
CayCo shall, at least ten (10) days prior to filing a Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto,
furnish without charge to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration, and such holders’ legal counsel,
copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each
case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement
(including each preliminary prospectus), and such other documents as the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration
or legal counsel for any such holders may request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such
holders.
3.1.4 Amendments
and Supplements. CayCo shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements
to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement
effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by
such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution set forth in such Registration
Statement or such securities have been withdrawn (the “Effectiveness Period”).
3.1.5 Notification.
After the filing of a Registration Statement, CayCo shall promptly, and in no event more than two (2) Business Days after the occurrence
of any of the events set forth in this section, notify the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement
of such filing, and shall further notify such holders promptly and confirm such advice in writing in all events: (i) when such Registration
Statement becomes effective; (ii) when any post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement becomes effective; (iii) the
issuance or threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order (and CayCo shall take all actions required to prevent the entry of
such stop order or to remove it if entered); and (iv) any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to such Registration
Statement or any prospectus relating thereto or for additional information or of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation
of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the securities covered by such
Registration Statement, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. CayCo shall promptly make available to the holders of
Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment prepared in connection with the immediate
preceding proviso; provided that before filing with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, CayCo shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities included
in such Registration Statement and to the legal counsel for any such holders, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed sufficiently
in advance of filing to provide such holders and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comment thereon.
3.1.6 Securities
Laws Compliance. CayCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered
by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” Laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the
holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may reasonably
request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered
with or approved by such other Governmental Authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of CayCo and do
any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the holders of Registrable Securities included in such
Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however,
that CayCo shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to
qualify but for this paragraph or subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction.
3.1.7 Agreements
for Disposition. CayCo shall enter into customary agreements (including, if applicable, an underwriting agreement in customary form)
and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.
The representations, warranties and covenants of CayCo in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters,
to the extent applicable, shall also be made to and for the benefit of the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration
statement, and the representations, warranties and covenants of the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement
in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters, to the extent applicable, shall also be made
to and for the benefit of CayCo.

Letter. CayCo shall obtain a “cold comfort” letter from CayCo’s independent registered public accountants or auditor
in the event of an underwritten offering, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold
comfort” letters as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the
participating Holders.
3.1.9 Opinions.
On the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to any Registration, CayCo shall obtain an opinion and an negative
assurance letter, dated such date, of one (1) counsel representing CayCo for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the
Holders participating in such Registration, the placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal
matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which as the Holders, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriter may reasonably
request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in
interest of the participating Holders.
3.1.10 Cooperation.
The chief executive officer of CayCo, the chief financial officer of CayCo, the chief accounting officer of CayCo and all other officers
and members of the management of CayCo shall cooperate fully in any offering of Registrable Securities hereunder, which cooperation shall
include, without limitation, the preparation of the Registration Statement with respect to such offering and all other offering materials
and related documents, and participation in meetings with Underwriters, attorneys, accountants and potential Holders. CayCo shall use
its reasonable efforts to make available the chief executive officer of CayCo, the chief financial officer of CayCo and all other officers
and members of the management of CayCo to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested
by the Underwriter in any underwritten offering.
3.1.11 Records.
Upon execution of confidentiality agreements, CayCo shall make available for inspection by the Holders of Registrable Securities included

accountant or other professional retained by any Holder of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement or any Underwriter,
all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of CayCo, as shall be necessary to enable them to exercise
their due diligence responsibility, and cause CayCo’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information requested by
any of them in connection with such Registration Statement.
3.1.12 Earnings

to its shareholders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of twelve (12) months, which earnings statement

3.1.13 Listing.
CayCo shall cause all Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement to be listed on such exchanges or otherwise designated
for trading in the same manner as similar securities issued by CayCo are then listed or designated.
3.1.14 Market
Stand-Off. In connection with any underwritten offering of equity securities of CayCo (other than a Block Trade) in which a Holder
participates, such Holder agrees that it shall not Transfer any CayCo Ordinary Shares or other equity securities of CayCo (other than
those included in such offering pursuant to this Agreement), without the prior written consent of CayCo, during the ninety (90)-day period
(or such shorter time agreed to by the managing Underwriters) beginning on the date of pricing of such offering, except as expressly
permitted by such lock-up agreement or in the event the managing Underwriters otherwise agree by written consent. Each Holder agrees
to execute a customary lock-up agreement in favor of the Underwriters to such effect (in each case on substantially the same terms and
conditions as all such Holders); provided that, such agreement shall not be materially more restrictive than any similar agreement
entered into by the directors and executive officers of CayCo participating in such underwritten offering; provided, further,
that such agreement shall provide that any early release of any Holder from the provisions of the terms of such agreement shall be on
a pro rata basis among all Holders.
3.2 Obligation
to Suspend Distribution. Upon receipt of any notice from CayCo of the occurrence of the event described in provision (iv) of
the first sentence of Section 3.1.5, each holder of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall immediately
discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities, pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities,
until such holder receives the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.1.5 or it is advised by the Company
in writing that the use of the Registration Statement can be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration
Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require CayCo to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion
in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to CayCo for reasons beyond CayCo control, CayCo may, upon
giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration
Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than thirty (30) days, determined in good faith by the Board to be necessary
for such purpose. CayCo shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under
this Section 3.2.
3.3 Registration
Expenses. Except as set forth in Section 2.2.5, CayCo shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with
the preparation, printing and distribution of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.1, any Demand
Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, any Demand Takedown pursuant to Section 2.1.6(a)(i), any Piggy-Back Registration
pursuant to Section 2.3, and all expenses incurred in performing or complying with its other obligations under this Agreement,
whether or not the Registration Statement becomes effective, including, without limitation: (i) all registration and filing fees;
(ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or “blue sky” Laws (including fees and disbursements of counsel
in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities); (iii) printing expenses; (iv) CayCo’s internal
expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees); (v) the fees and expenses incurred
in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities as required by Section 3.1.11; (vi) Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority fees; (vii) fees and disbursements of counsel for CayCo and fees and expenses for independent certified public
accountants retained by CayCo; (viii) the fees and expenses of any special experts retained by CayCo in connection with such registration,
and (ix) the reasonable fees and expenses of one legal counsel selected by the holders of a majority-in-interest of the Registrable
Securities included in such registration, not to exceed $150,000 without the consent of CayCo. CayCo shall have no obligation to pay
any underwriting discounts or selling commissions attributable to the Registrable Securities being sold by the holders thereof, which
underwriting discounts or selling commissions shall be borne by such holders. Additionally, in an underwritten offering, all participating
Holders and CayCo shall bear the expenses of the Underwriter pro rata in proportion to the respective amount of shares each is
selling in such offering.
3.4 Information.
The Holders of Registrable Securities shall promptly provide such information as may reasonably be requested by CayCo, or the managing
Underwriter, if any, in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement, including amendments and supplements thereto,
in order to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act and in connection with CayCo’s obligation
to comply with Federal and applicable state securities Laws.
Article 4
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.
4.1 Indemnification
by CayCo. CayCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Holder, and each
of their respective officers, employees, affiliates, directors, partners, members, attorneys and agents, and each Person, if any, who
controls an Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, a “Holder
Indemnified Party”), from and against any expenses, losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several,
arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or allegedly untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement
under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus
or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arising
out of or based upon any omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, or any violation by CayCo of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder
applicable to CayCo and relating to action or inaction required of CayCo in connection with any such registration; and CayCo shall promptly
reimburse the Holder Indemnified Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Holder Indemnified Party in connection
with investigating and defending any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or Action; provided, however,
that CayCo will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or
is based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement,
preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity
with information furnished to CayCo, in writing, by such selling Holder expressly for use therein, or is based on any selling Holder’s
violation of the federal securities Laws (including Regulation M) or failure to sell the Registrable Securities in accordance with the
plan of distribution contained in the prospectus.
4.2 Indemnification
by Holders of Registrable Securities. Each selling Holder of Registrable Securities will, in the event that any Registration
is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling Holder, indemnify
and hold harmless CayCo, each of its directors and officers, and each other selling Holder and each other Person, if any, who controls
another selling Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities, whether
joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities (or Actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which
the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary
prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or
are based upon any omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement
therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing
to CayCo by such selling Holder expressly for use therein, or is based on any selling Holder’s violation of the federal securities
Laws (including Regulation M) or failure to sell the Registrable Securities in accordance with the plan of distribution contained in
the prospectus, and shall reimburse CayCo, its directors and officers, and each other selling Holder or controlling Person for any legal
or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability
or Action. Each selling Holder’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the
amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling Holder in connection with such Registration.
4.3 Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability or
any Action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Sections 4.1 or 4.2, such Person (the “Indemnified
Party”) shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other Person for indemnification hereunder, notify such
other Person (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability or Action; provided,
however, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from
any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying
Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or Action
brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or Action, and, to
the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory
to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the
defense of such claim or Action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided,
however, that in any Action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified
Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel, which counsel is reasonably acceptable
to the Indemnifying Party) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling Persons who may be subject to liability arising out
of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses
of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written opinion of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation
of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying
Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any
claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could
have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified
Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding. The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer
of Registrable Securities.
4.4 Contribution.
4.4.1 If
the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified
Party in respect of any loss, claim, damage, liability or Action referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying
such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage,
liability or Action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying
Parties in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or Action, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state
a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
4.4.2 The
parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4.2 were determined
by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in the immediately preceding Section 4.4.1.
4.4.3 The
amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim, damage, liability or Action referred to in the immediately
preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such
Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4,
no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after
payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities
which gave rise to such contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and (c) furnish to the Holder promptly upon request (i) a written statement by CayCo
as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, or its qualification as
a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most
recent annual or quarterly report of CayCo, and (iii) such other reports and documents of CayCo as the Holder may reasonably request

6.3 Sharing
of Information. To the extent permitted by antitrust, competition or any other applicable Law, each of CayCo and the Holders
agrees and acknowledges that the directors designated by the Sponsor may share confidential, non-public information about CayCo and its
Subsidiaries (“Confidential Information”) with the Sponsor Parties. Each Sponsor Party recognizes that it, or its
affiliates and representatives, has acquired or will acquire Confidential Information the use or disclosure of which could cause CayCo
substantial loss and damages that could not be readily calculated and for which no remedy at law would be adequate. Accordingly, each
Sponsor Party covenants and agrees with CayCo that it will not (and will cause its respective controlled affiliates and representatives
not to) at any time, except with the prior written consent of CayCo, directly or indirectly, disclose any Confidential Information known
to it to any third party, unless (a) such information becomes known to the public through no fault of such party, (b) disclosure
is required by applicable Law (including any filing following the Closing with the Commission pursuant to applicable securities Laws)
or court of competent jurisdiction or requested by a governmental or regulatory authority; provided that, (other than in the case
of any required filing following the Closing with the Commission, or in connection with any routine audit or examination as described
below) such Sponsor Party promptly notifies CayCo of such requirement or request, and takes commercially reasonable steps, at the sole
cost and expense of CayCo, to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure, (c) such information was available or becomes
available to such Sponsor Party before, on or after the Closing, without restriction, from a source (other than CayCo) without any breach
of duty to CayCo or (d) such information was independently developed by such Sponsor Party, its affiliates or its representatives
without the use of the Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit any Sponsor
Party from disclosing Confidential Information (x) to any affiliate or representative of such Sponsor Party, or any limited partner,
member or shareholder of any of the foregoing, provided that, such Person shall be bound by an obligation of confidentiality with
respect to such Confidential Information, and such Sponsor Party shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 6.3
by any such Person, or (y) if such disclosure is made to a governmental or regulatory authority with jurisdiction over such Sponsor
Party in connection with a routine audit or examination that is not specifically directed at CayCo or the Confidential Information, provided
that, such Sponsor Party shall request that confidential treatment be accorded to any information so disclosed. No Confidential Information
shall be deemed to be provided to any Person, including any affiliate of the Sponsor Parties unless such Confidential Information is
actually provided to such Person.
6.4 Other
Business Opportunities.
6.4.1 The
parties expressly acknowledge and agree that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law: (i) the Sponsor (including (a) its
affiliates, (b) any portfolio company in which it or any of its affiliates or investment fund affiliates have made a debt or equity
investment (and vice versa), or (c) any of their respective limited partners, non-managing members (or other similar, direct or
indirect investors) and the director nominees of the foregoing) has the right to, and shall have no duty (fiduciary, contractual or otherwise)
not to, directly or indirectly engage in and possess interests in other business ventures of every type and description, including those
engaged in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or deemed to be competing
with CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, on its own account, or in partnership with, or as an employee, officer, director or shareholder
of any other Person, with no obligation to offer to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, or any other Holder or holder of share capital
of CayCo the right to participate therein; (ii) the Sponsor (including (a) its affiliates, (b) any portfolio company in
which it or any of its affiliates or investment fund affiliates have made a debt or equity investment (and vice versa) or (c) any
of their respective limited partners, non-managing members (or other similar, direct or indirect investors) and the director nominees
of the foregoing) may invest in, or provide services to, any Person that directly or indirectly competes with CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries;
and (iii) in the event that the Sponsor (including (a) its affiliates, (b) any portfolio company in which it or any of
its affiliates or investment fund affiliates have made a debt or equity investment (and vice versa) or (c) any of their respective
limited partners, non-managing members (or other similar, direct or indirect investors) or any director nominee of the foregoing, respectively)
acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate or other business opportunity for CayCo or any of its
Subsidiaries, such Person shall have no duty (fiduciary, contractual or otherwise) to communicate or present such corporate opportunity
to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Holder or holder of share capital of CayCo, as the case may be, and, notwithstanding
any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shall not be liable to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Holder or holder
of share capital of CayCo (or its respective affiliates) for breach of any duty (fiduciary, contractual or otherwise) by reason of the
fact that such Person, directly or indirectly, pursues or acquires such opportunity for itself, directs such opportunity to another Person
or does not present such opportunity to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Holder or holder of share capital of CayCo (or
its respective affiliates). For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that this paragraph is intended to disclaim and renounce,
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any right of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any Holder, with respect to the matters
set forth herein, and this paragraph shall be construed to effect such disclaimer and renunciation to the fullest extent permitted by
Law.
6.4.2 Each
of the parties hereby, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law:
(a) confirms
that none of the Sponsor nor any of its affiliates have any duty to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or to any other Holder other than
the specific covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement;
(b) acknowledges
and agrees that (a) in the event of any conflict of interest between CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any of
the Sponsor or any of its affiliates (or any director nominee of the foregoing acting in his or her capacity as such), on the other hand,
the Sponsor or such applicable affiliates (or any director nominee of the foregoing acting in his or her capacity as a director) may act
in its best interest, and (b) none of the Sponsor or any of its affiliates or any director nominee of the foregoing acting in his
or her capacity as a director or observer, shall be obligated (1) to reveal to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries confidential information
belonging to or relating to the business of such Person or any of its affiliates, or (2) to recommend or take any action in its capacity
as a direct or indirect shareholder or director, as the case may be, that prefers the interest of CayCo or its Subsidiaries over the interest
of such Person; and
(c) waives
any claim or cause of action against any of the Sponsor and any of its affiliates, and any officer, employee, agent or affiliate of any
such Person that may from time to time arise in respect of a breach by any such Person of any duty or obligation disclaimed under this
Section 6.4.
6.4.3 Each
of the parties hereto agrees that the waivers, limitations, acknowledgments and agreements set forth in this Section 6.4 shall
not apply to any alleged claim or cause of action against any of the Sponsor, based upon the breach or non-performance by such Person
of this Agreement or any other agreement to which such Person is a party.
6.4.4 The
provisions of this Section 6.4, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of any of the Sponsor or its affiliates
or any director nominee of the foregoing otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the parties to replace such other duties
and liabilities of the Sponsor or any of its affiliates or any director nominee of the foregoing to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
Law.
6.5 Indemnification;
Exculpation.
6.5.1 As
an inducement for the Sponsor to enter into this Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement,
subject in each case to restrictions under applicable Law, CayCo will, and CayCo will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, jointly and severally
indemnify, exonerate and hold the Sponsor and its direct and indirect partners, equityholders, members, managers, affiliates, directors,
officers, shareholders, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees, representatives and agents and each of the partners, equityholders,
members, affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively,
the “Sponsor Indemnitees”) free and harmless from and against any and all Actions, liabilities, losses, damages and
costs and out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Sponsor
Indemnitees or any of them before or after the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”),
arising out of any Action arising directly or indirectly out of, or in any way relating to, (i) any Sponsor’s or its affiliates’
ownership of equity securities of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or control of or ability to influence CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries
(other than any such Indemnified Liabilities (x) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise out of any breach of this Agreement
by such Sponsor Indemnitee or its affiliates or other related Persons or, subject to applicable Law, the breach of any fiduciary or other
duty or obligation of such Sponsor Indemnitee to its direct or indirect equityholders, creditors or affiliates, (y) to the extent
such control or the ability to control CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries derives from such Sponsor’s or its affiliates’ capacity
as an officer or director of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, or (z) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are directly caused
by such Person’s willful misconduct), (ii) the business, operations, properties, assets or other rights or liabilities of CayCo
or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) any services provided prior to, on or after the date of this Agreement by any Sponsor or its
affiliates to CayCo any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that if and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking
may be unavailable or unenforceable for any reason, CayCo will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, make the maximum contribution to the
payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable Law. For the purposes of this Section 6.5,
none of the circumstances described in the limitations contained in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed
to apply absent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to such effect, in which case to the extent any such
limitation is so determined to apply to any Sponsor Indemnitee as to any previously advanced indemnity payments made by CayCo or any of
its Subsidiaries, then such payments shall be promptly repaid by such Sponsor Indemnitee to CayCo and its Subsidiaries. The rights of
any Sponsor Indemnitee to indemnification hereunder will be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other agreement
or instrument to which such Sponsor Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under Law or under the
Governing Documents of CayCo or its Subsidiaries.
6.5.2 CayCo
will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, jointly and severally, reimburse any Sponsor Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any other litigation-related expenses) as they are incurred in connection
with investigating, preparing, pursuing, defending or assisting in the defense of any Action for which the Sponsor Indemnitee would be
entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Section 6.5, or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or
not such Sponsor Indemnitee is a party thereto. CayCo or its Subsidiaries, in the defense of any Action for which a Sponsor Indemnitee
would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Section 6.5, may, without the consent of such Sponsor Indemnitee,
consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement, if and only if, it (i) includes as a term thereof the giving
by the claimant or plaintiff therein to such Sponsor Indemnitee of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such Action,
(ii) does not impose any limitations (equitable or otherwise) on such Sponsor Indemnitee, and (iii) does not include a statement
as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Sponsor Indemnitee, and provided that,
the only penalty imposed in connection with such settlement is a monetary payment that will be paid in full by CayCo or its Subsidiaries.
6.5.3 CayCo
acknowledges and agrees that CayCo shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause its Subsidiaries to, be fully and primarily responsible
for the payment to any Sponsor Indemnitee in respect of Indemnified Liabilities in connection with any Jointly Indemnifiable Claims (as
defined below), pursuant to and in accordance with (as applicable) the terms of (i) CayCo’s Governing Documents, each as amended,
(ii) any director indemnification agreement, (iii) this Agreement, any other agreement between CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries
and such Sponsor Indemnitee (or its affiliates) pursuant to which such Sponsor Indemnitee is indemnified, (iv) the Laws of the jurisdiction
of incorporation or organization of any Subsidiary of CayCo, and/or (v) the Governing Documents of CayCo’s Subsidiaries ((i) through
(v) above, collectively, the “Indemnification Sources”), irrespective of any right of recovery such Sponsor Indemnitee
(or its affiliates) may have from any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan
or other enterprise (other than CayCo, any of its Subsidiaries or the insurer under and pursuant to any insurance policy of CayCo or any
of its Subsidiaries) from whom such Sponsor Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification with respect to which, in whole or in part,
CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries may also have an indemnification obligation (collectively, the “Indemnitee-Related Entities”).
Under no circumstance shall CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries be entitled to any right of subrogation or contribution by the Indemnitee-Related
Entities and no right of advancement or recovery any Sponsor Indemnitee may have from the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall reduce or
otherwise alter the rights of such Sponsor Indemnitee or the obligations of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries under the Indemnification
Sources. In the event that any of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall make any payment to any Sponsor Indemnitee in respect of indemnification
with respect to any Jointly Indemnifiable Claim, (x) CayCo shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause its Subsidiaries to, reimburse
the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment to the extent of such payment promptly upon written demand from such Indemnitee-Related
Entity, (y) to the extent not previously and fully reimbursed by CayCo and/or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to clause (x),
the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment shall be subrogated to the extent of the outstanding balance of such payment to all
of the rights of recovery of the Sponsor Indemnitee against CayCo and/or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and (z) such Sponsor
Indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights,
including the execution of such documents as may be necessary to enable the Indemnitee-Related Entities effectively to bring suit to enforce
such rights. Each party hereto agree that each of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this
Section 6.5, entitled to enforce this Section 6.5.3 as though each such Indemnitee-Related Entity were a party
to this Agreement. CayCo shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to perform the terms and obligations of this Section 6.5.3 as
though each such Subsidiary were a party to this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 6.5.3, the term (“Jointly
Indemnifiable Claims”) shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, any Indemnified Liabilities for which
any Sponsor Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification from both (1) CayCo and/or any of its Subsidiaries, pursuant to the Indemnification
Sources, on the one hand, and (2) any Indemnitee-Related Entity pursuant to any other agreement between any Indemnitee-Related Entity
and such Sponsor Indemnitee (or its affiliates), pursuant to which such Sponsor Indemnitee is indemnified, the Laws of the jurisdiction
of incorporation or organization of any Indemnitee-Related Entity and/or the Governing Documents of any Indemnitee-Related Entity, on
the other hand.
6.5.4 In
no event shall any Sponsor Indemnitee be liable to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries for any act, alleged act, omission or alleged omission
that does not constitute willful misconduct or fraud of such Sponsor Indemnitee as determined by a final, non-appealable determination
of a court of competent jurisdiction.
6.5.5 Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, for purposes of this Section 6.5, the term Sponsor Indemnitees shall
not include any Sponsor or its any of its partners, equityholders, members, affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling
Persons, employees and agents or any of the partners, equityholders, members, affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers,
controlling Persons, employees and agents of any of the foregoing who is an officer or director of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries in
such capacity as officer or director. Such officers and directors are or will be subject to separate indemnification in such capacity
through this Agreement and/or the Governing Documents and other agreements and instruments of CayCo and its Subsidiaries (including as
contemplated in Section 6.1).
6.5.6 The
rights of any Sponsor Indemnitee to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.5 will be in addition to any other rights any
such Person may have under any other section of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which such Sponsor Indemnitee
is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under Law or under the Governing Documents of CayCo and its Subsidiaries.
Article 7
MISCELLANEOUS.
7.1 Other
Registration Rights and Arrangements. SPAC represents and warrants that no other shareholders of SPAC, other than a SPAC Holder
has any right to require CayCo to register any of CayCo Ordinary Shares for sale or to include CayCo Ordinary Shares in any registration
filed by CayCo for the sale of shares for its own account or for the account of any other Person. The Company represents and warrants
that no other shareholder of the Company, other than a Company Holder has any right to require CayCo to register any of CayCo Ordinary
Shares for sale or to include CayCo Ordinary Shares in any registration filed by CayCo for the sale of shares for its own account or
for the account of any other Person. SPAC and the SPAC Holders hereby terminate the Prior SPAC Agreement, which shall be of no further
force and effect and is hereby superseded and replaced in its entirety by this Agreement.
7.2 Assignment;
No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of CayCo hereunder may not be assigned or
delegated by CayCo in whole or in part. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the holders of Registrable Securities
hereunder may be freely assigned or delegated by such holder of Registrable Securities in conjunction with and to the extent of any permitted
transfer of Registrable Securities by any such holder. This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure
to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and the holders of Registrable Securities and
their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement is not intended to confer any rights or benefits on any Persons that
are not party hereto other than as expressly set forth in Article 4, Section 6.1.7, Section 6.5
and this Section 7.2. The rights of a Holder of Registrable Securities under this Agreement may be transferred by such
a holder to a transferee who acquires or holds Registrable Securities; provided, however, that such transferee has executed
and delivered to CayCo a properly completed agreement, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement substantially in form, attached hereto
as Exhibit A (an “Addendum Agreement”), and the transferor shall have delivered to CayCo, no later than
thirty (30) days following the date of the transfer, written notification of such transfer setting forth the name of the transferor,
the name and address of the transferee, and the number of Registrable Securities so transferred. The execution of an Addendum Agreement
shall constitute a permitted amendment of this Agreement.
7.3 Amendments
and Modifications. Upon the written consent of CayCo, the Holders of at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities
at the time in question, compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived, or
any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified; provided, however, that notwithstanding the
foregoing, any amendment or modification hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in his, her or its capacity
as a holder of share capital of CayCo, in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in such capacity) shall require
the consent of the Holder so affected; provided, further, that any amendment or modification to, or waiver of, Article 6
(including with respect to any defined term as used therein, whether or not such defined term is defined therein) that adversely
affects any right granted to the Sponsor (including with respect to the Sponsor Director) shall require the prior written consent of
the Sponsor. No course of dealing between any holder or CayCo and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a holder
or CayCo in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any holder
or CayCo. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude
the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.
7.4 Term.
This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date of this Agreement or (ii) the
date as of which (a) all of the Registrable Securities have been sold, pursuant to a Registration Statement (but in no event prior
to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder (or any successor
rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission)) or (b) the holders of all Registrable Securities are permitted to sell the
Registrable Securities under Rule 144 (or any similar provision) under the Securities Act without limitation on the amount of securities
sold or the manner of sale; provided, further, that with respect to any Holder, such Holder will have no rights under this Agreement
and all obligations of CayCo to such Holder under this Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest date (x) such Holder ceases to
hold any Registrable Securities and (y) such Holder is permitted to sell the Registrable Securities under Rule 144 (or any
similar provision) under the Securities Act without limitation on the amount of securities sold or the manner of sale; provided,
further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Article 6 (including with respect to any defined term
as used therein, whether or not such defined term is defined therein) shall terminate on the date upon which the Sponsor no longer has
the right to nominate or designate any individual to serve as a director of CayCo (including pursuant to Section 6.1.4).
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of Section 6.1.7(ii), Section 6.4, Section 6.5
and Article 7 (including with respect to any defined term as used therein, whether or not such defined term is defined
therein) shall survive, and remain in full force and effect following, any termination of this Agreement.

and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any legal proceeding with respect to this Agreement

the rights and obligations arising hereunder any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts
for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 7.6.
7.7 WAIVER
OF TRIAL BY JURY. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH OF THE PARTIES AND
ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY MAY DO SO ONLY IF HE, SHE OR IT IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES

AGREEMENT AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS, AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATING THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING
OR HEREAFTER ARISING. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY
NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY
NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION
OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED.
7.8 Entire
Agreement. This Agreement (including all agreements entered into pursuant hereto and all certificates and instruments delivered
pursuant hereto and thereto) constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all
prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, understandings, negotiations and discussions between the parties, whether oral
or written, including without limitation the Prior SPAC Agreement.
7.9 Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent,
held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render

valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties.
7.10 Headings;
Counterparts. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction
or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
7.11 Specific
Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate
remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified
terms or otherwise breach or threaten to breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled,
in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable
relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Without
limiting the foregoing, each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other
equitable relief on the basis that (i) there is adequate remedy at law, or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an
appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an order or injunction to prevent breaches or threatened breaches
and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in

(f) Waiver
of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH OF THE PARTIES AND
ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY MAY DO SO ONLY IF HE, SHE OR IT IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES

matter hereof, and any other written or oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties is expressly
canceled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit any of the rights, remedies or obligations of CayCo or
any of the Holders under any other agreement between any of the Holders and CayCo, and nothing in any other agreement, certificate or
instrument shall limit any of the rights, remedies or obligations of any of the Holders or CayCo under this Agreement.
(h) Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent,
held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render
the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary,
shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a
valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties.
(i) Headings;
Counterparts. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction
or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
(j) Interpretation.
The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this
Agreement. In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires: (i) any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding
masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa; (ii) “including”
(and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding or
succeeding such term and shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (iii) the words
“herein,” “hereto,” and “hereby” and other words of similar import in this Agreement shall be deemed
in each case to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section or other subdivision of this Agreement; and (iv) the
term “or” means “and/or”. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.
Consequently, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted

of any provision of this Agreement.
(k) Specific
Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate
remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified
terms or otherwise breach or threaten to breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled,
in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable
relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Without
limiting the foregoing, each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other
equitable relief on the basis that (i) there is adequate remedy at law; or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an
appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an order or injunction to prevent breaches or threatened breaches
and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in
connection with any such order or injunction.
(l) No
Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action that may be based upon, arise out of
or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or
the subject matter hereof may only be made against the parties hereto and no past, present or future Affiliate, director, officer, employee,
incorporator, member, manager, partner, shareholder, agent, attorney or representative of any party hereto or any past, present or future
Affiliate, director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, manager, partner, stockholder, agent, attorney or representative of any
of the foregoing (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”) shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the
parties to this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby. Without limiting
the rights of any party against the other parties hereto, in no event shall any party or any of its Affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement
against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, any Non-Recourse Party.
(m) Several
Liability. The liability of any Holder hereunder is several (and not joint). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
in no event will any Holder be liable for any other Holder’s breach of such other Holder’s obligations under this Agreement.

SHARE CAPITAL
| 3. | The
authorized share capital of the Company is US$ divided
into Ordinary
Shares of par value of US$0.0001 each. |
| 4. | Subject to the
Statute, the Memorandum and these Articles and, where applicable, Designated Stock Exchange
Rules and/or the rules of any competent regulatory authority, any power of the
Company to purchase or otherwise acquire its own Shares shall be exercisable by the Board
in such manner, upon such terms and subject to such conditions as it thinks fit. |
SHARES
| 5. | Subject to the
Law, these Articles and, where applicable, the Designated Stock Exchange Rules (and
to any direction that may be given by the Company in general meeting) and without prejudice
to any rights attached to any existing Shares, the Directors may in their absolute discretion
and without the approval of the Members, cause the Company to: |
| (a). | allot,
issue, grant options over or otherwise dispose of Shares with or without preferred, deferred
or other rights or restrictions, whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital
or otherwise and to such persons, at such times and on such other terms as they think proper; |
| (b). | grant rights
over Shares or other securities to be issued in one or more Classes or series as they deem
necessary or appropriate and determine the designations, powers, preferences, privileges
and other rights attaching to such Shares or securities, including dividend rights, voting
rights, conversion rights, terms of redemption and liquidation preferences, any or all of
which may be greater than the powers, preferences, privileges and rights associated with
the then issued and outstanding Shares, at such times and on such other terms as they think
proper; and |
| (c). | issue options,
warrants or convertible securities or securities of similar nature conferring the right upon
the holders thereof to subscribe for, purchase or receive any Class of Shares or securities
in the capital of the Company on such terms as it may from time to time determine. |
| 6. | The Directors
may authorise the division of Shares into any number of Classes and the different Classes
shall be authorized, established and designated (or re-designated as the case may be) and
the variations in the relative rights (including, without limitation, voting, dividend and
redemption rights), restrictions, preferences, privileges and payment obligations as between
the different Classes (if any) may be fixed and determined by the Directors or by a Special
Resolution. The Directors may issue from time to time, out of the authorized share capital
of the Company, preferred shares with such preferred or other rights, all or any of which
may be greater than the rights of Ordinary Shares, at such time and on such terms as they
may think appropriate in their absolute discretion and without approval of the Members; provided,
however, before any preferred shares of any such series are issued, the Directors may by
resolution of Directors determine, with respect to any series of preferred shares, the terms
and rights of that series, including: |
| (a). | the designation
of such series, the number of preferred shares to constitute such series and the subscription
price thereof if different from the par value thereof; |
| (b). | whether
the preferred shares of such series shall have voting rights, in addition to any voting rights
provided by law, and, if so, the terms of such voting rights, which may be general or limited; |
| (c). | the dividends,
if any, payable on such series, whether any such dividends shall be cumulative, and, if so,
from what dates, the conditions and dates upon which such dividends shall be payable, and
the preference or relation which such dividends shall bear to the dividends payable on any
Shares of any other Class or any other series of Shares; |
| (d). | whether
the preferred shares of such series shall be subject to redemption by the Company, and, if
so, the times, prices and other conditions of such redemption; |
| (e). | whether
the preferred shares of such series shall have any rights to receive any part of the assets
available for distribution amongst the Members upon the liquidation of the Company, and,
if so, the terms of such liquidation preference, and the relation which such liquidation
preference shall bear to the entitlements of the holders of Shares of any other Class or
any other series of Shares; |
| (f). | whether
the preferred shares of such series shall be subject to the operation of a retirement or
sinking fund and, if so, the extent to and manner in which any such retirement or sinking
fund shall be applied to the purchase or redemption of the preferred shares of such series
for retirement or other corporate purposes and the terms and provisions relative to the operation
thereof; |
| (g). | whether
the preferred shares of such series shall be convertible into, or exchangeable for, Shares
of any other Class or any other series of preferred shares or any other securities and,
if so, the price or prices or the rate or rates of conversion or exchange and the method,
if any, of adjusting the same, and any other terms and conditions of conversion or exchange; |
| (h). | the limitations
and restrictions, if any, to be effective while any preferred shares of such series are outstanding
upon the payment of dividends or the making of other distributions on, and upon the purchase,
redemption or other acquisition by the Company of, the existing Shares or Shares of any other
Class of Shares or any other series of preferred shares; |
| (i). | the conditions
or restrictions, if any, upon the creation of indebtedness of the Company or upon the issue
of any additional shares, including additional shares of such series or of any other Class of
Shares or any other series of preferred shares; and |
| (j). | any other
powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and any
qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof; |
and,
for such purposes, the Directors may reserve an appropriate number of Shares for the time being unissued.
| 7. | Neither the Company
nor the Board shall be obliged, when making or granting any allotment of, offer of, option
over or disposal of Shares, to make, or make available, any such allotment, offer, option
or Shares to Members or others with registered addresses in any particular territory or territories
being a territory or territories where, in the absence of a registration statement or other
special formalities, this would or might, in the opinion of the Board, be unlawful or impracticable.
Members affected as a result of the foregoing sentence shall not be, or be deemed to be,
a separate Class of members for any purpose whatsoever. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in the resolution or resolutions providing for the establishment of any Class or
series of preferred shares, no vote of the holders of preferred shares or ordinary shares
shall be a prerequisite to the issuance of any Shares of any Class or series of the
preferred shares authorized by and complying with the conditions of the Memorandum and these
Articles. |
| 8. | The Company shall
not issue Shares to bearer. |
| 9. | The Company may
in connection with the issue of any Shares exercise all powers of paying commissions and
brokerage conferred or permitted by the Law. Such commissions and brokerage may be satisfied
by the payment of cash or the lodgement of fully or partly paid-up Shares or partly in one
way and partly in the other. |
| 10. | The Directors
may refuse to accept any application for Shares, and may accept any application in whole
or in part, for any reason or for no reason. |
FRACTIONAL
SHARES
| 11. | The Company
shall not issue fractional Shares or register the transfer of fractions of a Share. |
REGISTER OF
MEMBERS
| 12. | The Company
shall maintain or cause to be maintained the Register of Members in accordance with the Statute.
For so long as the Shares are listed on a Designated Stock Exchange, the title to such Shares
may be evidenced and transferred in accordance with the applicable Designated Stock Exchange
Rules and, for these purposes, the Register of Members may be maintained in accordance
with section 40B of the Statute. |
CLOSING REGISTER
OF MEMBERS OR FIXING RECORD DATE
| 13. | For the purpose
of determining Members entitled to notice of, or to vote at any meeting of Members or any
adjournment thereof, or Members entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order
to make a determination of Members for any other purpose, the Directors may provide that
the Register of Members shall be closed for transfers for a stated period which shall not
in any case exceed forty (40) calendar days. If the Register of Members shall be closed for
the purpose of determining Members entitled to notice of, or to vote at, a meeting of Members,
the Register of Members shall be closed for at least ten (10) calendar days immediately
preceding the meeting and the record date for such determination shall be the date of closure
of the Register of Members. |
| 14. | In lieu of,
or apart from, closing the Register of Members, the Directors may fix in advance or arrears
a date as the record date for any such determination of Members entitled to notice of, or
to vote at any meeting of the Members or any adjournment thereof, or for the purpose of determining
the Members entitled to receive payment of any dividend or in order to make a determination
of Members for any other purpose. |
| 15. | If the Register
of Members is not so closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of Members
entitled to notice of, or to vote at, a meeting of Members or Members entitled to receive
payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is sent or the date on which
the resolution of the Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall
be the record date for such determination of Members. When a determination of Members entitled
to vote at any meeting of Members has been made as provided in this Article, such determination
shall apply to any adjournment thereof. |
SHAREHOLDER

16.
| (a). | Any Shareholder
or Shareholders of the Company holding at least the required percentage under the Statute
of the voting rights of the Company which entitles such Shareholder(s) to require the
Company to include a matter on the agenda of a general meeting (the “Proposing Shareholder(s)”)
may request, subject to the Statute, that the Board of Directors include a matter on the
agenda of a general meeting to be held in the future, provided that the Board of Directors
determines that the matter is appropriate to be considered at a general meeting (a “Proposal
Request”). In order for the Board of Directors to consider a Proposal Request and
whether to include the matter stated therein in the agenda of a general meeting, notice of
the Proposal Request must be timely delivered in accordance with applicable Law, and the
Proposal Request must comply with the requirements of these Articles (including this Article 16)
and any applicable Law and Designated Stock Exchange Rules. The Proposal Request must be
in writing, signed by all of the Proposing Shareholder(s) making such request, delivered,
either in person or by registered mail, postage prepaid, and received by the Secretary (or,
in the absence thereof, by the chief executive officer of the Company). To be considered
timely, a Proposal Request must be received within the time periods prescribed by applicable
Law. The announcement of an adjournment or postponement of a general meeting shall not commence
a new time period (or extend any time period) for the delivery of a Proposal Request as described
above. In addition to any information required to be included in accordance with applicable
Law, a Proposal Request must include the following: (i) the name, address, telephone
number, fax number and email address of the Proposing Shareholder (or each Proposing Shareholder,
as the case may be) and, if an entity, the name(s) of the Person(s) that controls
or manages such entity; (ii) the number of Shares held by the Proposing Shareholder(s),
directly or indirectly (and, if any of such Shares are held indirectly, an explanation of
how they are held and by whom), which shall be in such number no less than as is required
to qualify as a Proposing Shareholder, accompanied by evidence satisfactory to the Company
of the record holding of such Shares by the Proposing Shareholder(s) as of the date
of the Proposal Request; (iii) the matter requested to be included on the agenda of
a general meeting, all information related to such matter, the reason that such matter is
proposed to be brought before the general meeting, the complete text of the resolution that
the Proposing Shareholder proposes to be voted upon at the general meeting, and a representation
that the Proposing Shareholder(s) intend to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting;
(iv) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the Proposing Shareholders
and any other Person(s) (naming such Person or Persons) in connection with the matter
that is requested to be included on the agenda and a declaration signed by all Proposing
Shareholder(s) of whether any of them has a personal interest in the matter and, if
so, a description in reasonable detail of such personal interest; (v) a description
of all Derivative Transactions (as defined below) by each Proposing Shareholder(s) during
the previous twelve month period, including the date of the transactions and the class, series
and number of securities involved in, and the material economic terms of, such Derivative
Transactions; and (vi) a declaration that all of the information that is required under
the Statute and any other applicable law and Designated Stock Exchange Rules to be provided
to the Company in connection with such matter, if any, has been provided to the Company.
The Board of Directors, may, in its discretion, to the extent it deems necessary, request
that the Proposing Shareholder(s) provide additional information necessary so as to
include a matter in the agenda of a general meeting, as the Board of Directors may reasonably
require. |
| (b). | A “Derivative
Transaction” means any agreement, arrangement, interest or understanding entered
into by, or on behalf or for the benefit of, any Proposing Shareholder or any of its Affiliates,
whether of record or beneficial: (1) the value of which is derived in whole or in part
from the value of any Class or series of Shares or other securities of the Company,
(2) which otherwise provides any direct or indirect opportunity to gain or Share in
any gain derived from a change in the value of securities of the Company, (3) the effect
or intent of which is to mitigate loss, manage risk or benefit of security value or price
changes, or (4) which provides the right to vote or increase or decrease the voting
power of, such Proposing Shareholder, or any of its Affiliates, with respect to any Shares
or other securities of the Company, which agreement, arrangement, interest or understanding
may include, without limitation, any option, warrant, debt position, note, bond, convertible
security, swap, share appreciation right, short position, profit interest, hedge, right to
dividends, voting agreement, performance-related fee or arrangement to borrow or lend shares
(whether or not subject to payment, settlement, exercise or conversion in any such Class or
series), and any proportionate interest of such Proposing Shareholder in the securities of
the Company held by any general or limited partnership, or any limited liability company,
of which such Proposing Shareholder is, directly or indirectly, a general partner or managing
member. |
| (c). | The information
required pursuant to this Article shall be updated as of (i) the record date of
the general meeting, (ii) five Business Days before the general meeting, and (iii) as
of the general meeting, and any adjournment or postponement thereof. |
| (d). | The provisions
of Articles 16(a) and 16(b) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any matter
to be included on the agenda of a general meeting which is convened pursuant to a request
of a Shareholder duly delivered to the Company in accordance with the Statute. |
| (e). | Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, this Article 16 may only be amended, replaced or suspended
by a resolution adopted at a general meeting by a majority together holding not less than
seventy-five percent (75%) of the total voting power of the Shareholders. |
SHARE CERTIFICATES
| 17. | A Member shall
only be entitled to a share certificate if the Directors resolve that share certificates
shall be issued. Share certificates representing Shares, if any, shall be in such form as
the Directors may determine. Share certificates shall be signed by one or more Directors
or other Person authorized by the Directors. The Directors may authorize certificates to
be issued with the authorized signature(s) affixed by mechanical process. All certificates
for Shares shall be consecutively numbered or otherwise identified and shall specify the
Shares to which they relate. All certificates surrendered to the Company for transfer shall
be cancelled and, subject to these Articles, no new certificate shall be issued until the
former certificate representing a like number of relevant Shares shall have been surrendered
and cancelled. |
| 18. | No certificate
shall be issued representing Shares of more than one Class. |
| 19. | The Company
shall not be bound to issue more than one certificate for Shares held jointly by more than
one Person and delivery of a certificate to one joint holder shall be a sufficient delivery
to all of them. In the event that Shares are held jointly by several Persons, any request
may be made by any one of the joint holders and if so made shall be binding on all of the
joint holders. |
| 20. | Every share
certificate of the Company shall bear legends required under the applicable Laws, including
the Securities Act. |
| 21. | Share certificates
shall be issued within the relevant time limit as prescribed by the Law or as the Designated
Stock Exchange may from time to time determine, whichever is the shorter, after allotment
or, except in the case of a transfer which the Company is for the time being entitled to
refuse to register and does not register, after lodgment of a transfer with the Company. |
| 22. | (1) Upon
every transfer of Shares the certificate held by the transferor shall be given up to be cancelled,
and shall forthwith be cancelled accordingly, and a new certificate shall be issued to the
transferee in respect of the Shares transferred to him at such fee as is provided in paragraph
(2) of this Article. If any of the Shares included in the certificate so given up shall
be retained by the transferor a new certificate for the balance shall be issued to him at
the aforesaid fee payable by the transferor to the Company in respect thereof. |
(2) The
fee referred to in paragraph (1) above shall be an amount not exceeding the relevant maximum amount as the Designated Stock Exchange
may from time to time determine provided that the Board may at any time determine a lower amount for such fee.
| 23. | If a share certificate
shall be damaged or defaced or alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, a new certificate
representing the same Shares may be issued to the relevant Member upon request, subject to
delivery up of the old certificate or (if alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed)
compliance with such conditions as to evidence and indemnity and the payment of out-of-pocket
expenses of the Company in connection with the request as the Directors may think fit. |
REDEMPTION
| 24. | Subject to the
provisions of the Statute and these Articles, the Company may: |
| (f). | issue Shares
that are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the Member or the Company.
The redemption of Shares shall be effected in such manner and upon such terms as may be determined,
before the issue of such Shares, by the Board; |
| (g). | purchase
its own Shares (including any redeemable Shares) in such manner and upon such terms as have
been approved by the Board, or are otherwise authorized by these Articles; and |
| (h). | make a
payment in respect of the redemption or purchase of its own Shares in any manner permitted
by the Statute, including out of capital. |
| 25. | The purchase
of any Share shall not oblige the Company to purchase any other Share other than as may be
required pursuant to applicable Law and any other contractual obligations of the Company. |
| 26. | The holder of
the Shares being purchased shall be bound to deliver up to the Company the certificate(s) (if
any) thereof for cancellation and thereupon the Company shall pay to him the purchase or
redemption monies or consideration in respect thereof. |
| 27. | The Directors
may accept the surrender for no consideration of any fully paid Share. |
TREASURY SHARES
| 28. | The Directors
may, prior to the purchase, redemption or surrender of any Share, determine that such Share
shall be held as a treasury share. The Directors may determine to cancel a treasury share
or transfer a treasury share on such terms as they think proper (including, without limitation,
for nil consideration). |
NON RECOGNITION
OF TRUSTS
| 29. | The Company
shall not be bound by or compelled to recognize in any way (even when notified) any equitable,
contingent, future or partial interest in any Share, or (except only as is otherwise provided
by these Articles or the Statute) any other rights in respect of any Share other than an
absolute right to the entirety thereof in the registered holder. |
LIEN ON SHARES
| 30. | The Company
shall have a first and paramount Lien on all Shares (whether fully paid- up or not) registered
in the name of a Member (whether solely or jointly with others) for all debts, liabilities
or engagements to or with the Company (whether presently payable or not) by such Member or
his estate, either alone or jointly with any other Person, whether a Member or not, but the
Directors may at any time declare any Share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions
of this Article. The registration of a transfer of any such Share shall operate as a waiver
of the Company’s Lien thereon. The Company’s Lien on a Share shall also extend
to any amount payable in respect of that Share. |
| 31. | The Company
may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any Shares on which the Company has
a Lien, if a sum in respect of which the Lien exists is presently payable, and is not paid
within fourteen (14) calendar days after notice has been given to the holder of the Shares,
or to the Person entitled to it in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of the holder,
demanding payment and stating that if the notice is not complied with the Shares may be sold. |
| 32. | To give effect
to any such sale, the Directors may authorize any Person to execute an instrument of transfer
of the Shares sold to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser. The purchaser
or his nominee shall be registered as the holder of the Shares comprised in any such transfer,
and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his
title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the sale or the exercise
of the Company’s power of sale under these Articles. |
| 33. | The net proceeds
of such sale after deduction of expenses, fees and commission incurred by the Company shall
be applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the Lien exists as is
presently payable and any residue shall (subject to a like Lien for sums not presently payable
as existed upon the Shares before the sale) be paid to the Person entitled to the Shares
at the date of the sale. |
CALLS ON SHARES
| 34. | Subject to these
Articles and the terms of the allotment and issue of any Shares, the Directors may from time
to time make calls upon the Members in respect of any monies due and payable but unpaid on
their Shares (whether in respect of par value or premium), and each Member shall (subject
to receiving at least fourteen (14) calendar days’ notice specifying the time or times
of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times so specified the amount called on the
Shares. A call may be revoked or postponed as the Directors may determine. A call may be
required to be paid by installments. A Person upon whom a call is made shall remain liable
for calls made upon him notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the Shares in respect
of which the call was made. |
| 35. | A call shall
be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorizing
such call was passed. |
| 36. | The joint holders
of a Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof. |
| 37. | If a call remains
unpaid after it has become due and payable, the Person from whom it is due shall pay interest
on the amount unpaid from the day it became due and payable until it is paid at such rate
as the Directors may determine, but the Directors may waive payment of the interest in whole
or in part. |
| 38. | An amount payable
in respect of a Share on allotment or at any fixed date, whether on account of the par value
of the Share or premium or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a call and, if it is not paid,
all the provisions of these Articles shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable
by virtue of a call. |
| 39. | The Directors
may issue Shares with different terms as to the amount and times of payment of calls, or
the interest to be paid. |
| 40. | The Directors
may, if they think fit, receive an amount from any Member willing to advance all or any part
of the monies uncalled and unpaid upon any Shares held by him, and may (until the amount
would otherwise become payable) pay interest at such rate as may be agreed upon between the
Directors and the Member paying such amount in advance. No such amount paid in advance of
calls shall entitle the Member paying such amount to any portion of a dividend declared in
respect of any period prior to the date upon which such amount would, but for such payment,
become payable. |
FORFEITURE
OF SHARES
| 41. | If a call remains
unpaid after it has become due and payable, the Directors may give to the Person from whom
it is due not less than fourteen (14) calendar days’ notice requiring payment of the
amount unpaid together with any interest, which may have accrued. The notice shall specify
where payment is to be made and shall state that if the notice is not complied with, the
Shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited. |
| 42. | If the notice
is not complied with, any Share in respect of which it was given may, before the payment
required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors. Such
forfeiture shall include all dividends or other monies declared payable in respect of the
forfeited Share and not paid before the forfeiture. |
| 43. | A forfeited
Share may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner
as the Directors think fit and at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition the
forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit. Where for the purposes
of its disposal a forfeited Share is to be transferred to any Person, the Directors may authorize
some Person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Share in favor of that Person. |
| 44. | A Person any
of whose Shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of them and shall
surrender to the Company for cancellation the certificate for the Shares forfeited and shall
remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which at the date of forfeiture were payable
by him to the Company in respect of those Shares together with interest, but his liability
shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all monies due
and payable by him in respect of those Shares. |
| 45. | A certificate
in writing under the hand of one Director of the Company that a Share has been forfeited
on a specified date shall be conclusive evidence of the fact as against all Persons claiming
to be entitled to the Share. The certificate shall (subject to the execution of an instrument
of transfer) constitute a good title to the Share and the Person to whom the Share is disposed
of shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall
his title to the Share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in
reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the Share. |
| 46. | The provisions
of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which,
by the terms of issue of a Share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of
the par value of the Share or by way of premium as if it had been payable by virtue of a
call duly made and notified. |
TRANSFER OF
SHARES
| 47. | Subject to these
Articles, any Member may transfer all or any of his Shares by an instrument of transfer in
the usual or common form or in a form prescribed by the Designated Stock Exchange or in any
other form approved by the Board and may be under hand or, if the transferor or transferee
is a clearing house or a central depository house or its nominee(s), by hand or by machine
imprinted signature or by such other manner of execution as the Board may approve from time
to time. |
| 48. | The instrument
of transfer of any Share shall be in writing and in any usual or common form or such other
form as the Directors may, in their absolute discretion, approve and be executed by or on
behalf of the transferor and if in respect of a nil or partly paid up Share, or if so required
by the Directors, shall also be executed on behalf of the transferee and shall be accompanied
by the certificate (if any) of the Shares to which it relates and such other evidence as
the Directors may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer.
The transferor shall be deemed to remain a Member until the name of the transferee is entered
in the Register of Members in respect of the relevant Shares. |
| 49. | The Board may,
in its absolute discretion, and without giving any reason therefor, refuse to register a
transfer of any Share (not being a fully paid up share) to a Person of whom it does not approve,
or any Share issued under any share incentive scheme for employees upon which a restriction
on transfer imposed thereby still subsists. |
| 50. | The Directors
may in their absolute discretion decline to register any transfer of Shares which is not
fully paid up or on which the Company has a Lien. The Directors may also decline to register
any transfer of any Share unless: |
| (a). | the instrument
of transfer is lodged with the Company, accompanied by the certificate for the Shares to
which it relates and such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require to show the
right of the transferor to make the transfer; |
| (b). | the instrument
of transfer is in respect of only one Class of Shares; |
| (c). | the instrument
of transfer is properly stamped, if required; |
| (d). | in the
case of a transfer to joint holders, the number of joint holders to whom the Share is to
be transferred does not exceed four; and |
| (e). | a fee of
such maximum sum as the Designated Stock Exchange may determine to be payable, or such lesser
sum as the Board of Directors may from time to time require, is paid to the Company in respect
thereof. |
| 51. | The registration
of transfers may, after compliance with any notice required by the Designated Stock Exchange
Rules, be suspended and the Register of Members closed at such times and for such periods
as the Directors may, in their absolute discretion, from time to time determine, provided
always that such registration of transfer shall not be suspended nor the Register of Members
closed for more than thirty (30) calendar days in any calendar year. |
| 52. | All instruments
of transfer that are registered shall be retained by the Company. If the Directors refuse
to register a transfer of any Shares, they shall within two calendar months after the date
on which the instrument of transfer was lodged with the Company send notice of the refusal
to each of the transferor and the transferee. |
TRANSMISSION
OF SHARES
| 53. | If a Member
dies, the survivor or survivors where he was a joint holder, and his legal Personal representatives
where he was a sole holder, shall be the only Persons recognized by the Company as having
any title to his interest. The estate of a deceased Member is not thereby released from any
liability in respect of any Share, which had been jointly held by him. Any Person becoming
entitled to a Share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution
of a Member (or in any other way than by transfer) may, upon such evidence being produced
as may from time to time be required by the Directors, elect either to become the holder
of the Share or to have some Person nominated by him as the transferee. If he elects to become
the holder, he shall give notice to the Company to that effect, but the Directors shall,
in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have
had in the case of a transfer of the Share by that Member before the death or bankruptcy
or liquidation or dissolution of that Member, as the case may be. |
| 54. | If the Person
so becoming entitled shall elect to be registered himself as holder, he shall deliver or
send to the Company a notice in writing signed by him stating that he so elects. |
| 55. | A Person becoming
entitled to a Share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of
a Member (or in any other case than by transfer) shall be entitled to the same dividends
and other advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the registered holder of the
Share. However, he shall not, before being registered as a Member in respect of the Share,
be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to
meetings of the Company and the Directors may at any time give notice requiring any such
Person to elect either to be registered himself or to have some other Person nominated by
him become the holder of the Share (but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same
right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer
of the Share by the relevant Member before the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution
of such Member or in any other case than by transfer, as the case may be). If the notice
is not complied with within ninety (90) calendar days, the Directors may thereafter withhold
payment of all dividends, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the Share until the
requirements of the notice have been complied with. |
AMENDMENTS
OF MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES AND ALTERATION OF CAPITAL
| 56. | Subject to the
provisions of the Statute and the provisions of these Articles, the Company may from time
to time by Ordinary Resolution: |
| (a). | increase
the share capital by such sum, to be divided into Shares of such Classes and amount, as the
resolution shall prescribe and with such rights, priorities and privileges annexed thereto,
as the Company in general meeting may determine; |
| (b). | consolidate
and divide all or any of its share capital into Shares of larger amount than its existing
Shares; |
| (c). | divide
its Shares into several Classes and without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred
on the holders of existing Shares attach thereto respectively any preferential, deferred,
qualified or special rights, privileges, conditions or such restrictions which in the absence
of any such determination by the Company in general meeting, as the Directors may determine
provided always that, for the avoidance of doubt, where a Class of Shares has been authorized
by the Company, no resolution of the Company in general meeting is required for the issuance
of Shares of that Class and the Directors may issue Shares of that Class and determine
such rights, privileges, conditions or restrictions attaching thereto as aforesaid, and further
provided that where the Company issues Shares which do not carry voting rights, the words
“non-voting” shall appear in the designation of such Shares and where the equity
capital includes Shares with different voting rights, the designation of each Class of
Shares, other than those with the most favourable voting rights, must include the words “restricted
voting” or “limited voting”; |
| (d). | subdivide
its Shares, or any of them, into Shares of smaller amount than is fixed by the Memorandum
or into Shares without par value (subject, nevertheless, to the Law), and may by such resolution
determine that, as between the holders of the Shares resulting from such sub-division, one
or more of the Shares may have any such preferred, deferred or other rights or be subject
to any such restrictions as compared with the other or others as the Company has power to
attach to unissued or new Shares; and |
| (e). | cancel
any Shares that at the date of the passing of the resolution have not been taken or agreed
to be taken by any Person and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the
Shares so cancelled or, in the case of Shares, without par value, diminish the number of
shares into which its capital is divided. |
| 57. | All new Shares
created in accordance with the provisions of the preceding Article shall be subject
to the same provisions of these Articles with reference to the payment of calls, Liens, transfer,
transmission, forfeiture and otherwise as the Shares in the original share capital. The Board
may settle as it considers expedient any difficulty which arises in relation to any consolidation
and division under the preceding Article and in particular but without prejudice to
the generality of the foregoing may arrange for the sale of the Shares representing fractions
and the distribution of the net proceeds of sale (after deduction of the expenses of such
sale) in due proportion amongst the Members who would have been entitled to the fractions,
and for this purpose the Board may authorise some Person to transfer the Shares representing
fractions to their purchaser or resolve that such net proceeds be paid to the Company for
the Company’s benefit. Such purchaser will not be bound to see to the application of
the purchase money nor will his title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity
in the proceedings relating to the sale. |
| 58. | Subject to the
provisions of the Statute and the provisions of these Articles, the Company may from time
to time by Special Resolution: |
| (b). | alter,
amend or add to these Articles; |
| (c). | alter or
add to the Memorandum with respect to any objects, powers or other matters specified therein;
and |
| (d). | reduce
its share capital and any capital redemption reserve fund in any manner authorized by Law. |
SHARE RIGHTS
| 59. | Subject to the
provisions of applicable Law, Designated Stock Exchange Rules, the Memorandum and these Articles
and to any special rights conferred on the holders of any Shares or Class of Shares,
any Share in the Company (whether forming part of the present capital or not) may be issued
with or have attached thereto such rights or restrictions whether in regard to dividend,
voting, return of capital or otherwise as the Board may determine, including without limitation
on terms that they may be, or at the option of the Company or the holder are, liable to be
redeemed on such terms and in such manner, including out of capital, as the Board may deem
fit. |
| 60. | Subject to the
provisions of applicable Law and these Articles, any preferred shares may be issued or converted
into Shares that, at a determinable date or at the option of the Company or the holder if
so authorized by the Memorandum, are liable to be redeemed on such terms and in such manner
as the Company before the issue or conversion may by Special Resolution of the Members determine.
Where the Company purchases for redemption a redeemable share, purchases not made through
the market or by tender shall be limited to a maximum price as may from time to time be determined
by the Board, either generally or with regard to specific purchases. If purchases are by
tender, tenders shall comply with applicable Law. |
| 61. | The rights and
restrictions attaching to the Ordinary Shares are as follows: |
Holders
of Ordinary Shares shall be entitled to such dividends as the Directors may in their absolute discretion lawfully declare from time to
time.
Holders
of Ordinary Shares shall be entitled to a return of capital on liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company (other than on a
conversion, redemption or purchase of Shares, or an equity financing or series of financings that do not constitute the sale of all or
substantially all of the Shares of the Company).
| (c). | Attendance
at General Meetings and Voting |
Holders
of Ordinary Shares have the right to receive notice of, attend, speak and vote at general meetings of the Company. Each Ordinary Share
shall be entitled to one (1) vote on all matters subject to vote at general meetings of the Company.
VARIATION
OF RIGHTS OF SHARES
| 62. | Subject to the
provisions of these Articles, if at any time the share capital of the Company is divided
into different Classes, the rights attached to any Class (unless otherwise provided
by the terms of issue of the Shares of that Class) may, whether or not the Company is being
wound up, be varied, modified or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders
of a majority of the issued Shares of that Class, or with the sanction of an Ordinary Resolution
passed at a general meeting of the holders of the Shares of that Class. |
| 63. | The provisions
of these Articles relating to general meetings shall apply to every Class meeting of
the holders of one Class of Shares except that the necessary quorum shall be one Person
holding or representing by proxy at least one-third (1/3) of the issued Shares of the Class and
that any holder of Shares of the Class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll. |
| 64. | Subject to the
provisions of the Articles, the rights conferred upon the holders of the Shares of any Class issued
with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms
of issue of the Shares of that Class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of
further Shares ranking pari passu with or subsequent to the Shares of that Class or
the redemption or purchase of any Shares of any Class by the Company, and the rights
of the holders of Shares shall not be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of Shares
with preferred or other rights including, without limitation, the creation of Shares with
enhanced or weighted voting rights. |
REGISTERED
OFFICE
| 65. | Subject to the
provisions of the Statute, the Company may by resolution of the Directors change the location
of its Registered Office. |
GENERAL MEETINGS
| 66. | All general
meetings other than annual general meetings shall be called extraordinary general meetings. |
| 67. | The Company
may, but shall not (unless required by the Statute) be obliged to hold a general meeting
in each calendar year as its annual general meeting and shall specify the meeting as such
in the notices calling it. The annual general meeting shall be held at such time and place
as the Directors shall appoint. At these meetings the report of the Directors (if any) shall
be presented. |
| 68. | The Chairman
or a majority of the Directors may call general meetings, and they shall on a Member’s
requisition forthwith proceed to convene an extraordinary general meeting of the Company. |
| 69. | A Members’
requisition is a requisition of Members of the Company holding at the date of deposit of
the requisition not less than one-third (1/3) of all votes attaching to all issued and outstanding
Shares entitled to vote at general meetings of the Company. |
| 70. | The requisition
must state the objects of the meeting and must be signed by the requisitionists and deposited
at the Registered Office, and may consist of several documents in like form each signed by
one or more requisitionists. |
| 71. | If there are
no Directors as at the date of the deposit of a Members’ requisition, or if the Directors
do not within twenty-one (21) calendar days from the date of the deposit of such requisition
duly proceed to convene a general meeting to be held within a further twenty-one (21) calendar
days, the requisitionists, or any of them representing more than one- half of the total voting
rights of all of them, may themselves convene a general meeting, but any meeting so convened
shall not be held after the expiration of three calendar months after the expiration of the
said twenty-one (21) calendar days. |
| 72. | A general meeting
convened as aforesaid by requisitionists shall be convened in the same manner as nearly as
possible as that in which general meetings are to be convened by Directors. |
NOTICE OF
GENERAL MEETINGS
| 73. | At least fifteen
(15) calendar days’ notice shall be given of any general meeting. Every notice shall
be exclusive of the day on which it is given or deemed to be given and of the day for which
it is given and shall specify the place, the day and the hour of the meeting and the general
nature of the business and shall be given in the manner hereinafter mentioned or in such
other manner if any as may be prescribed by the Company, provided that a general meeting
of the Company shall, whether or not the notice specified in this regulation has been given
and whether or not the provisions of the Articles regarding general meetings have been complied
with, be deemed to have been duly convened if it is so agreed: |
| (a). | in the
case of an annual general meeting, by all the Members (or their proxies) entitled to attend
and vote thereat; and |
| (b). | in the
case of an extraordinary general meeting, by a majority in number of the Members (or their
proxies) having a right to attend and vote at the meeting, being a majority together holding
not less than seventy-five percent (75%) in voting rights of the Shares giving that right. |
| 74. | The accidental
omission to give notice of a general meeting to, or the non-receipt of notice of a meeting
by, any Person entitled to receive notice shall not invalidate the proceedings at any meeting. |
PROCEEDINGS
AT GENERAL MEETINGS
| 75. | No business
shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present at the time when the
meeting proceeds to business. Two or more holders of Shares which carry not less than one-half
of all votes attaching to Shares in issue and entitled to vote at such genral meeting, present
in person or by proxy or, if a corporate or other non-natural person, by its duly authorised
representative, shall constitute a quorum; unless the Company has only one Member entitled
to vote at such general meeting in which case the quorum shall be that one Member present
in person or by proxy or (in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person) by a
duly authorized representative or proxy. |
| 76. | A Person may
participate at a general meeting by telephone or other similar communications equipment by
means of which all the Persons participating in such meeting can communicate with each other.
Participation by a Person in a general meeting in this manner is treated as presence in Person
at that meeting. |
| 77. | A resolution
(including a Special Resolution) in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by all Members
for the time being entitled to receive notice of and to attend and vote at general meetings
(or, being corporations, signed by their duly authorized representatives) shall be as valid
and effective as if the resolution had been passed at a general meeting of the Company duly
convened and held. |
| 78. | If a quorum
is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting or if during such
a meeting a quorum ceases to be present, the meeting shall be dissolved and in any other
case it shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and place
or to such other day, time or such other place as the Directors may determine, and if at
the adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed
for the meeting, the Members constituting a majority of the outstanding share capital of
the Company (calculated on an as- converted basis) shall be a quorum and may transact the
business for which the meeting was called, provided, that, such present Members shall
only discuss and/or approve the matters as described in the meeting notice delivered in accordance
with these Articles. |
| 79. | The chairman,
if any, of the Board of Directors shall preside as chairman at every general meeting of the
Company, or if there is no such chairman, or if he shall not be present within fifteen (15)
minutes after the time appointed for the holding of the meeting, or is unwilling to act,
the Directors present shall elect one of their number to be chairman of the meeting. |
| 80. | If no Director
is willing to act as chairman or if no Director is present within fifteen (15) minutes after
the time appointed for holding the meeting, the Members present shall choose one of their
number to be chairman of the meeting. |
| 81. | The chairman
may, with the consent of a meeting at which a quorum is present (and shall if so directed
by the meeting), adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place, but no business
shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business left unfinished at the
meeting from which the adjournment took place. When a general meeting is adjourned for thirty
calendar days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as in the case of an
original meeting. Otherwise it shall not be necessary to give any such notice. |
| 82. | A resolution
put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on the vote of the requisite majority pursuant
to a poll of the Members. Unless otherwise required by the Statute or these Articles, such
requisite majority shall be a simple majority of votes that are able to be cast. |
| 83. | The Directors
may cancel or postpone any duly convened general meeting at any time prior to such meeting,
except for general meetings requisitioned by the Members in accordance with these Articles,
for any reason or for no reason, upon notice in writing to Members. A postponement may be
for a stated period of any length or indefinitely as the Directors may determine. Notice
of the business to be transacted at such postponed general meeting shall not be required.
If a general meeting is postponed in accordance with this Article, the appointment of a proxy
will be valid if it is received as required by these Articles not less than 48 hours before
the time appointed for holding the postponed meeting. |
VOTES OF MEMBERS
| 84. | Subject to any
rights and restrictions for the time being attached to any Share, every Member present in
person or by proxy (or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly
authorized representative or proxy) shall, at a general meeting of the Company, have one
(1) vote for each Ordinary Share of which he is the holder. |
| 85. | In the case
of joint holders of record the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person
or by proxy (or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorized representative
or proxy), shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders and
for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders
stand in the Register of Members. |
| 86. | Shares carrying
the right to vote that are held by a Member of unsound mind, or in respect of whom an order
has been made by any court, having jurisdiction in lunacy, may be voted by his committee,
receiver, curator bonis, or other Person on such Member’s behalf appointed by that
court, and any such committee, receiver, curator bonis or other Person may vote by proxy. |
| 87. | No Person shall
be entitled to vote at any general meeting or at any separate meeting of the holders of a
Class of Shares unless he is registered as a Member on the record date for such meeting
nor unless all calls or other monies then payable by him in respect of Shares have been paid. |
| 88. | No objection
shall be raised to the qualification of any voter except at the general meeting or adjourned
general meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered and every vote not disallowed
at the meeting shall be valid. Any objection made in due time shall be referred to the chairman
whose decision shall be final and conclusive. |
| 89. | Votes may be
cast either personally or by proxy. A Member may appoint more than one proxy or the same
proxy under one or more instruments to attend and vote at a meeting. All resolutions shall
be determined by poll and not on a show of hands. An instrument appointing a proxy may be
in any usual or common form or such other form as the Directors may approve. |
| 90. | A Member holding
more than one Share need not cast the votes in respect of his Shares in the same way on any
resolution and therefore may vote a Share or some or all such Shares either for or against
a resolution and/or abstain from voting a Share or some or all of the Shares and, subject
to the terms of the instrument appointing him, a proxy appointed under one or more instruments
may vote a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which he is appointed either
for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting. |
PROXIES
| 91. | The instrument
appointing a proxy shall be in writing, be executed under the hand of the appointor or of
his attorney duly authorized in writing, or, if the appointor is a corporation, under the
hand of an officer or attorney duly authorized for that purpose. A proxy need not be a Member
of the Company. |
| 92. | The instrument
appointing a proxy shall be deposited at the Registered Office or at such other place as
is specified for that purpose in the notice convening the meeting, or in any instrument of
proxy sent out by the Company: |
| (a). | not less
than forty-eight (48) hours before the time for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting
at which the Person named in the instrument proposes to vote; or |
| (b). | in the
case of a poll taken more than forty-eight (48) hours after it is demanded, be deposited
as aforesaid after the poll has been demanded and not less than twenty-four (24) hours before
the time appointed for the taking of the poll; or |
| (c). | where the
poll is not taken forthwith but is taken not more than forty-eight (48) hours after it was
demanded be delivered at the meeting at which the poll was demanded to the chairman or to
the secretary or to any director; |
provided
that the Directors may in the notice convening the meeting, or in an instrument of proxy sent out by the Company, direct that the
instrument appointing a proxy may be deposited (no later than the time for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting) at the Registered
Office or at such other place as is specified for that purpose in the notice convening the meeting, or in any instrument of proxy sent
out by the Company. The chairman may in any event at his discretion direct that an instrument of proxy shall be deemed to have been duly
deposited. An instrument of proxy that is not deposited in the manner permitted shall be invalid.
| 93. | The instrument
appointing a proxy may be in any usual or common form and may be expressed to be for a particular
meeting or any adjournment thereof or generally until revoked. An instrument appointing a
proxy shall be deemed to confer authority to demand or join or concur in demanding a poll. |
| 94. | Votes given
in accordance with the terms of an instrument of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the
previous death or insanity of the principal or revocation of the proxy or of the authority
under which the proxy was executed, or the transfer of the Share in respect of which the
proxy is given unless notice in writing of such death, insanity, revocation or transfer was
received by the Company at the Registered Office before the commencement of the general meeting,
or adjourned meeting at which it is sought to use the proxy. |
CORPORATIONS
ACTING BY REPRESENTATIVES
| 95. | Any corporation
or other non-natural person which is a Member or a Director may in accordance with its constitutional
documents, or in the absence of such provision by resolution of its directors or other governing
body, authorize such person as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting
of the Company or of any meeting of holders of a Class or of the Directors or of a committee
of Directors, and the Person so authorized shall be entitled to exercise the same powers
on behalf of the corporation which he represents as that corporation could exercise if it
were an individual Member or Director. |
SHARES THAT
MAY NOT BE VOTED
| 96. | Shares in the
Company that are beneficially owned by the Company shall not be voted, directly or indirectly,
at any meeting and shall not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding Shares
at any given time. |
DEPOSITARY
AND CLEARING HOUSES
| 97. | If a recognised
clearing house (or its nominee(s)) or depositary (or its nominee(s)) is a Member of the Company
it may, by resolution of its directors or other governing body or by power of attorney, authorise
such Person(s) as it thinks fit to act as its representative(s) at any general
meeting of the Company or of any Class of Members provided that, if more than
one Person is so authorized, the authorization shall specify the number and Class of
Shares in respect of which each such Person is so authorized. A Person so authorized pursuant
to this Article shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the recognised
clearing house (or its nominee(s)) or depositary (or its nominee(s)) which he represents
as that recognised clearing house (or its nominee(s)) or depositary (or its nominee(s)) could
exercise if it were an individual Member holding the number and Class of Shares specified
in such authorization. |
DIRECTORS
| 98. | Unless otherwise
determined by the Company in general meeting, the number of Directors shall not be less than
five (5) Directors, and there shall be no maximum number of Directors. For so long as
the Shares are listed on a Designated Stock Exchange, the Directors shall include at least
such number of Independent Directors as the applicable law, rules or regulations or
the Designated Stock Exchange Rules require as determined by the Board. |
| 99. | The Board of
Directors shall have a Chairman elected and appointed by a majority of the Directors then
in office. The period for which the Chairman will hold office will also be determined by
a majority of all of the Directors then in office. The Chairman shall preside as chairman
at every meeting of the Board of Directors, save and except that if the Chairman is not present
at a meeting of the Board of Directors within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for
holding the same, or if the Chairman is unable or unwilling to act as the chairman of a meeting
of the Board of Directors, the attending Directors may choose one of their number to be the
chairman of the meeting. |
| 100. | The Company
may by Special Resolution appoint any Person to be a Director. |
| 101. | The Board may,
by the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the remaining Directors present and voting
at a Board meeting, appoint any Person as a Director, to fill a casual vacancy on the Board
or as an addition to the existing Board. |
| 102. | A Director
shall hold office until the expiration of his or her term or his or her successor shall have
been elected and qualified, or until his or her office is otherwise vacated. |
| 103. | A Director
shall not be required to hold any Shares in the Company by way of qualification. A Director
who is not a Member of the Company shall nevertheless be entitled to attend and speak at
general meetings. |
| 104. | A Director
may be removed from office by Special Resolution of the Company, notwithstanding anything
in these Articles or in any agreement between the Company and such Director (but without
prejudice to any claim for damages under such agreement). A vacancy on the Board created
by the removal of a Director under the previous sentence may be filled by Special Resolution
or by the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the remaining Directors present and voting
at a Board meeting. The notice of any meeting at which a resolution to remove a Director
shall be proposed or voted upon must contain a statement of the intention to remove that
Director and such notice must be served on that Director not less than ten (10) calendar
days before the meeting. Such Director is entitled to attend the meeting and be heard on
the motion for his removal. |
| 105. | The remuneration
of the Directors may be determined by the Directors or by Ordinary Resolution. |
| 106. | The Directors
shall be entitled to be paid their travelling, hotel and other expenses properly incurred
by them in going to, attending and returning from meetings of the Directors, or any committee
of the Directors, or general meetings of the Company, or otherwise in connection with the
business of the Company, or to receive such fixed allowance in respect thereof as may be
determined by the Directors from time to time, or a combination partly of one such method
and partly the other. |
| 107. | Subject to
applicable Law, Designated Stock Exchange Rules and these Articles, the Board may establish
any committee of the Board as the Board shall deem appropriate from time to time, and committees
of the Board shall have the rights, powers and privileges granted to such committees by the
Board from time to time. |
POWERS AND
DUTIES OF DIRECTORS
| 108. | Subject to
the provisions of the Statute, the Memorandum and these Articles and to any directions given
by Special Resolution, the business and affairs of the Company shall be conducted as directed
by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Board shall have all such powers and authorities,
and may do all such acts and things, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, the
Memorandum and these Articles. No resolution passed by the Company in general meeting shall
invalidate any prior act of the Directors that would have been valid if that resolution had
not been passed. |
| 109. | The Board may,
from time to time, and except as required by applicable Law or Designated Stock Exchange
Rules, adopt, institute, amend, modify or revoke the corporate governance policies or initiatives
of the Company and determine on various corporate governance related matters of the Company

assistant treasurer, manager or controller, and for such term and at such remuneration (whether
by way of salary or commission or participation in profits or partly in one way and partly
in another), and with such powers and duties as the Directors may think fit. Any natural
person or corporation so appointed by the Directors may be removed by the Directors. The
Directors may also appoint one or more of their number to the office of managing director
upon like terms, but any such appointment shall ipso facto terminate if any managing director
ceases for any cause to be a Director, or if the Company by Ordinary Resolution resolves
that his tenure of office be terminated. |
| 111. | The Directors
may appoint any natural person or corporation to be a Secretary (and if need be an assistant

conform to any regulations that may be imposed on it by the Directors. |

may from time to time and at any time by power of attorney (whether under Seal or under hand)
or otherwise appoint any company, firm or Person or body of Persons, whether nominated directly
or indirectly by the Directors, to be the attorney or attorneys or authorized signatory (any
such Person being an “Attorney” or “Authorized Signatory”, respectively)
of the Company for such purposes and with such powers, authorities and discretion (not exceeding
those vested in or exercisable by the Directors under these Articles) and for such period
and subject to such conditions as they may think fit, and any such power of attorney or other
appointment may contain such provisions for the protection and convenience of Persons dealing
with any such Attorney or Authorized Signatory as the Directors may think fit, and may also
authorise any such Attorney or Authorized Signatory to delegate all or any of the powers,
authorities and discretion vested in him. |
| 114. | The Directors

of the Company and may fix the remuneration of any such natural person or corporation. |
| 116. | The Directors
from time to time and at any time may delegate to any such committee, local board, manager
or agent any of the powers, authorities and discretions for the time being vested in the
Directors and may authorise the members for the time being of any such local board, or any
of them to fill any vacancies therein and to act notwithstanding vacancies and any such appointment
or delegation may be made on such terms and subject to such conditions as the Directors may
think fit and the Directors may at any time remove any natural person or corporation so appointed
and may annul or vary any such delegation, but no Person dealing in good faith and without
notice of any such annulment or variation shall be affected thereby. |
| 117. | Any such delegates
as aforesaid may be authorized by the Directors to sub-delegate all or any of the powers,
authorities, and discretion for the time being vested in them. |

money is borrowed or as security for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or

constitute such Director’s presence in person at the meeting. |
| 122. | The quorum
necessary for the transaction of the business of the Board may be fixed by the Directors,
and unless so fixed, the presence of two (2) Directors then in office shall constitute
a quorum. A Director represented by proxy or by an alternate Director at any meeting shall
be deemed to be present for the purposes of determining whether or not a quorum is present. |
| 123. | If a quorum

than forty-eight (48) hours after written notice of such adjournment has been given to the

or his duly appointed alternate. |
| 125. | Subject to
any regulations imposed on it by the Directors, a committee appointed by the Directors may

the meeting, the committee members present may choose one of their number to be chairman
of the meeting. |
| 126. | A committee
appointed by the Directors may meet and adjourn as it thinks proper. Subject to any regulations

chairman shall have a second or casting vote. |
| 127. | All acts done
by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of Directors, or by any Person acting as
a Director, shall notwithstanding that it be afterwards discovered that there was some defect
in the appointment of any such Director or Person acting as aforesaid, or that they or any
of them were disqualified, be as valid as if every such Person had been duly appointed and
was qualified to be a Director. |
| 128. | The Company
shall pay all fees, charges and expenses (including travel and related expenses) incurred
by each Director in connection with: (i) attending the meetings of the Board and all

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no “Independent Director” as defined in the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange or in Rule 10A-3
under the Exchange Act, and with respect of whom the Board has determined constitutes an “Independent Director” for purposes
of compliance with applicable Law or the Company’s listing requirements, shall without the consent of the Audit Committee take
any of the foregoing actions or any other action that would reasonably be likely to affect such Director’s status as an “Independent
Director” of the Company.
| 131. | Subject to
applicable Law and to these Articles, no Director or proposed or intending Director shall
be disqualified by his office from contracting with the Company, either with regard to his
tenure of any office or place of profit or as vendor, purchaser or in any other manner whatever,
nor shall any such contract or any other contract or arrangement in which any Director is
in any way interested be liable to be avoided, nor shall any Director so contracting or being
so interested be liable to account to the Company or the Members for any remuneration, profit
or other benefits realised by any such contract or arrangement by reason of such Director
holding that office or of the fiduciary relationship thereby established provided that such
Director shall disclose the nature of his interest in any contract or arrangement in which
he is interested in accordance with Article 132 herein. Any such transaction that would
reasonably be likely to affect a Director’s status as an “Independent Director”,
or that would constitute a “related party transaction” as defined by Item 7.B.
of Form 20-F promulgated by the Commission, shall require the approval of the Audit
Committee. |
| 132. | A Director
who to his knowledge is in any way, whether directly or indirectly, interested in a contract
or arrangement or proposed contract or arrangement with the Company shall declare the nature
of his interest at the meeting of the Board at which the question of entering into the contract
or arrangement is first considered, if he knows his interest then exists, or in any other
case at the first meeting of the Board after he knows that he is or has become so interested.
For the purposes of this Article, a general Notice to the Board by a Director to the effect
that: |
| (a). | he is a
member or officer of a specified company or firm and is to be regarded as interested in any
contract or arrangement which may after the date of the Notice be made with that company
or firm; or |
| (b). | he is to
be regarded as interested in any contract or arrangement which may after the date of the
Notice be made with a specified Person who is connected with him; |
shall
be deemed to be a sufficient declaration of interest under this Article in relation to any such contract or arrangement, provided
that no such Notice shall be effective unless either it is given at a meeting of the Board or the Director takes reasonable steps to
secure that it is brought up and read at the next Board meeting after it is given.
| 133. | Following a
declaration being made pursuant to the last preceding two Articles, subject to any separate
requirement for Audit Committee approval under applicable Law or the Designated Stock Exchange
Rules, and unless disqualified by the chairman of the relevant Board meeting, a Director
may vote in respect of any contract or proposed contract or arrangement in which such Director
is interested and may be counted in the quorum at such meeting. |
MINUTES
| 134. | The Directors
shall cause minutes to be made for the purpose of all appointments of officers made by the
Directors, all proceedings at meetings of the Company or the holders of any Class of
Shares and of the Directors, and of committees of Directors including the names of the Directors
or alternate Directors present at each meeting. |
| 135. | When the chairman
of a meeting of the Directors signs the minutes of such meeting the same shall be deemed
to have been duly held notwithstanding that all the Directors have not actually come together
or that there may have been a technical defect in the proceedings. |
ALTERNATE
DIRECTORS
| 136. | Any Director
(other than an alternate Director) may by writing appoint any other Director, or any other
Person willing to act, to be an alternate Director and by writing may remove from office
an alternate Director so appointed by him. |
| 137. | An alternate
Director shall be entitled to receive notice of all meetings of Directors and of all meetings
of committees of Directors of which his appointor is a member, to attend and vote at every
such meeting at which the Director appointing him is not personally present, and generally
to perform all the functions of his appointor as a Director in his absence. |
| 138. | An alternate
Director shall cease to be an alternate Director if his appointor ceases to be a Director. |
| 139. | Any appointment
or removal of an alternate Director shall be by notice to the Company signed by the Director
making or revoking the appointment or in any other manner approved by the Directors. |
| 140. | An alternate
Director shall be deemed for all purposes to be a Director and shall alone be responsible
for his own acts and defaults and shall not be deemed to be the agent of the Director appointing
him. |
AUDIT COMMITTEE
| 141. | Without prejudice
to the freedom of the Directors to establish any other committees, for so long as the Shares
of the Company (or depositary receipts therefor) are listed or quoted on the Designated Stock
Exchange, the Board shall establish and maintain an Audit Committee as a committee of the
Board, the composition and responsibilities of which shall comply with the charter of the
Audit Committee, the Designated Stock Exchange Rules and the rules and regulations
of the Commission. |
NO MINIMUM
SHAREHOLDING
| 142. | The Company
in general meeting may fix a minimum shareholding required to be held by a Director, but
unless and until such a shareholding qualification is fixed, a Director is not required to
hold Shares. |
SEAL
| 143. | The Company
may, if the Directors so determine, have a Seal. The Seal shall only be used by the authority
of the Directors or of a committee of the Directors authorized by the Directors. Every instrument
to which the Seal has been affixed shall be signed by at least one Person who shall be either
a Director or some officer or other Person appointed by the Directors for the purpose. |
| 144. | The Company
may have for use in any place or places outside the Cayman Islands a duplicate Seal or Seals
each of which shall be a facsimile of the common Seal of the Company and, if the Directors
so determine, with the addition on its face of the name of every place where it is to be
used. |
| 145. | A Director
or officer, representative or attorney of the Company may without further authority of the
Directors affix the Seal over his signature alone to any document of the Company required
to be authenticated by him under seal or to be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the
Cayman Islands or elsewhere wheresoever. |
DIVIDENDS,
DISTRIBUTIONS AND RESERVE
| 146. | Subject to
the Statute and these Articles any rights and restrictions for the time being attached to
any Shares, the Directors may from time to time declare dividends (including interim dividends)
and other distributions on Shares in issue and authorize payment of the dividends or distributions
out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. No dividend or distribution
shall be paid except out of the realized or unrealized profits of the Company, or out of
the share premium account or as otherwise permitted by the Statute. |
| 147. | Except as otherwise
provided by the rights attached to Shares, all dividends shall be declared and paid according
to the par value of the Shares that a Member holds. If any Share is issued on terms providing
that it shall rank for dividend as from a particular date, that Share shall rank for dividend
accordingly. |
| 148. | The Directors
may deduct from any dividend or distribution payable to any Member all sums of money (if
any) then payable by him to the Company on account of calls or otherwise. |
| 149. | The Directors
may declare that any dividend or distribution be paid wholly or partly by the distribution
of specific assets and in particular of shares, debentures, or securities of any other company
or in any one or more of such ways and where any difficulty arises in regard to such distribution,
the Directors may settle the same as they think expedient and fix the value for distribution
of such specific assets or any part thereof and may determine that cash payments shall be
made to any Members upon the basis of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of
all Members and may vest any such specific assets in trustees as may seem expedient to the
Directors. |
| 150. | Any dividend,
distribution, interest or other monies payable in cash in respect of Shares may be paid by
wire transfer to the holder or by cheque or warrant sent through the post directed to the
registered address of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, to the registered address
of the holder who is first named on the Register of Members or to such Person and to such
address as such holder or joint holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque or warrant
shall be made payable to the order of the Person to whom it is sent. Any one of three or
more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any dividends, bonuses, or other monies
payable in respect of the Share held by them as joint holders. |
| 151. | If several
Persons are registered as joint holders of any Share, any of them may give effective receipts
for any dividend or other moneys payable on or in respect of the Share. |
| 152. | No dividend
or distribution shall bear interest against the Company. |
| 153. | Any dividend
which cannot be paid to a Member and/or which remains unclaimed after six (6) months
from the date of declaration of such dividend may, in the discretion of the Directors, be
paid into a separate account in the Company’s name, provided that the Company
shall not be constituted as a trustee in respect of that account and the dividend shall remain
as a debt due to the Member. Any dividend which remains unclaimed after a period of six (6) years
from the date of declaration of such dividend shall be forfeited and shall revert to the
Company. |
CAPITALIZATION
| 154. | Subject to
applicable Law, the Directors may: |
| (a). | resolve
to capitalise any sum standing to the credit of any of the Company’s reserve accounts
or funds (including the Share Premium Account and capital redemption reserve fund) or any
sum standing to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution; |
| (b). | appropriate
the sum resolved to be capitalised to the Members in proportion to the nominal amount of
Shares (whether or not fully paid) held by them respectively and apply that sum on their
behalf in or towards: |
| (i) | paying up
the amounts (if any) for the time being unpaid on Shares held by them respectively, or |
| (ii) | paying up
in full unissued Shares or debentures of a nominal amount equal to that sum, |
and allot
the Shares or debentures, credited as fully paid, to the Members (or as they may direct) in those proportions, or partly in one way and
partly in the other, but the Share Premium Account, the capital redemption reserve and profits which are not available for distribution
may, for the purposes of this Article, only be applied in paying up unissued Shares to be allotted to Members credited as fully paid;
| (c). | make any
arrangements they think fit to resolve a difficulty arising in the distribution of a capitalised
reserve and in particular, without limitation, where Shares or debentures become distributable
in fractions the Directors may deal with the fractions as they think fit; |
| (d). | authorise
a Person to enter (on behalf of all the Members concerned) into an agreement with the Company
providing for either: |
| (i) | the allotment
to the Members respectively, credited as fully paid, of Shares or debentures to which they
may be entitled on the capitalisation, or |
| (ii) | the payment
by the Company on behalf of the Members (by the application of their respective proportions
of the reserves resolved to be capitalised) of the amounts or part of the amounts remaining
unpaid on their existing Shares, |
and any
such agreement made under this authority being effective and binding on all those Members; and
| (e). | generally
do all acts and things required to give effect to the resolution. |
| 155. | Notwithstanding
any provisions in these Articles, the Directors may resolve to capitalise any sum standing
to the credit of any of the Company’s reserve accounts or funds (including the Share
Premium Account and capital redemption reserve fund) or any sum standing to the credit of
the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution by applying such sum
in paying up in full unissued Shares to be allotted and issued to: |
| (a). | employees
(including Directors) or service providers of the Company or its Affiliates upon exercise
or vesting of any options or awards granted under any share incentive scheme or employee
benefit scheme or other arrangement which relates to such Persons that has been adopted or
approved by the Directors or the Members; |
| (b). | any trustee
of any trust or administrator of any share incentive scheme or employee benefit scheme to
whom Shares are to be allotted and issued by the Company in connection with the operation
of any share incentive scheme or employee benefit scheme or other arrangement which relates
to such Persons that has been adopted or approved by the Directors or Members; or |
| (c). | the holders
of warrants issued by the Company upon the cashless exercise of such warrant in accordance
with the terms thereof. |

shall cause proper books of account to be kept with respect to all sums of money received
and expended by the Company and the matters in respect of which the receipt or expenditure

of account as are necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the Company’s
affairs and to explain its transactions. |
| 157. | The Directors
shall from time to time determine whether and to what extent and at what times and places
and under what conditions or regulations the accounts and books of the Company or any of
them shall be open to the inspection of Members not being Directors and no Member (not being
a Director) shall have any right of inspecting any account or book or document of the Company
except as conferred by the Statute or authorized by the Directors or by the Company in general
meeting. |
| 158. | The Directors
may from time to time cause to be prepared and to be laid before the Company in general meeting

Committee, by the Board. |
| 161. | If the office
of auditor becomes vacant by the resignation or death of the Auditor, or by his becoming
incapable of acting by reason of illness or other disability at a time when his services
are required, the Directors shall fill the vacancy and determine the remuneration of such
Auditor. |
| 162. | Auditors of
the Company shall have a right of access at all times to the books and accounts and vouchers
of the Company and shall be entitled to require from the Directors and officers of the Company
such information and explanation as may be necessary for the performance of the duties of
the Auditors. |
| 163. | Auditors shall,
if so required by the Directors, make a report on the accounts of the Company during their
tenure of office at the next annual general meeting following their appointment and at any
time during their term of office upon request of the Directors or any general meeting of
the Members. |

by the Auditor and compared by him with the books, accounts and vouchers relating thereto;
and he shall make a written report thereon stating whether such statement and balance sheet
are drawn up so as to present fairly the financial position of the Company and the results
of its operations for the period under review and, in case information shall have been called
for from Directors or officers of the Company, whether the same has been furnished and has
been satisfactory. The financial statements of the Company shall be audited by the Auditor
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. The Auditor shall make a written

| (a). | post, shall
be deemed to have been served five (5) calendar days after the time when the letter

| 169. | Any Members
present, either personally or by proxy, at any meeting of the Company shall for all purposes
be deemed to have received due notice of such meeting and, where requisite, of the purposes
for which such meeting was convened. |
| 170. | A notice may
be given by the Company to the Person or Persons which the Company has been advised are entitled
to a Share or Shares in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a Member in the same manner
as other notices which are required to be given under these Articles and shall be addressed
to them by name, or by the title of representatives of the deceased, or trustee of the bankrupt,
or by any like description at the address supplied for that purpose by the Persons claiming
to be so entitled, or at the option of the Company by giving the notice in any manner in
which the same might have been given if the death or bankruptcy had not occurred. |
| 171. | Notice of every
general meeting shall be given in any manner hereinbefore authorized to every Person shown
as a Member in the Register of Members on the record date for such meeting except that in
the case of joint holders the notice shall be sufficient if given to the joint holder first
named in the Register of Members and every Person upon whom the ownership of a Share devolves
by reason of his being a legal personal representative or a trustee in bankruptcy of a Member
of record where the Member of record but for his death or bankruptcy would be entitled to
receive notice of the meeting, and no other Person shall be entitled to receive notices of
general meetings. |
INFORMATION
| 172. | No Member shall
be entitled to require discovery of any information in respect of any detail of the Company’s
trading or any information which is or may be in the nature of a trade secret or secret process
which may relate to the conduct of the business of the Company and which in the opinion of
the Board would not be in the interests of the Members of the Company to communicate to the
public. |
| 173. | The Board shall
be entitled to release or disclose any information in its possession, custody or control
regarding the Company or its affairs to any of its Members including, without limitation,
information contained in the Register and transfer books of the Company. |
WINDING UP
| 174. | If the Company
shall be wound up, the liquidator may, with the sanction of a Special Resolution of the Company
and any other sanction required by the Statute, divide amongst the Members in species or
in kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether they shall consist of
property of the same kind or not) and may for that purpose value any assets and determine
how the division shall be carried out as between the Members or different Classes of Members.
The liquidator may, with the like sanction, vest the whole or any part of such assets in
trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the Members as the liquidator, with the like
sanction, shall think fit, but so that no Member shall be compelled to accept any asset upon
which there is a liability. |
| 175. | If the Company
shall be wound up, and the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be
insufficient to repay the whole of the share capital, such assets shall be distributed so
that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the Members in proportion to the
par value of the Shares held by them. If in a winding up the assets available for distribution
amongst the Members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the share capital
at the commencement of the winding up, the surplus shall be distributed amongst the Members
in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them at the commencement of the winding
up subject to a deduction from those Shares in respect of which there are monies due, of
all monies payable to the Company for unpaid calls or otherwise. This Article is without
prejudice to the rights of the holders of Shares issued upon special terms and conditions. |

(including for the purposes of this Article any alternate Director appointed pursuant
to the provisions of these Articles), Secretary, assistant Secretary, or other officer for
the time being and from time to time of the Company (but not including the Company’s

shall be indemnified and secured harmless against all actions, proceedings, costs, charges,
expenses, losses, damages or liabilities incurred or sustained by such Indemnified Person,
other than by reason of such Indemnified Person’s own dishonesty, wilful default or
fraud, in or about the conduct of the Company’s business or affairs (including as a
result of any mistake of judgment) or in the execution or discharge of his duties, powers,
authorities or discretions, including without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing,
any costs, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by such Indemnified Person in defending
(whether successfully or otherwise) any civil proceedings concerning the Company or its affairs
in any court whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere. |
FINANCIAL
YEAR
| 177. | Unless the
Directors otherwise prescribe, the financial year of the Company shall end on 31st December in
each year. |
DISCLOSURE
| 178. | The Directors,
or any service providers (including the officers, the Secretary and the registered office
agent of the Company) specifically authorized by the Directors, shall be entitled to disclose
to any regulatory or judicial authority any information regarding the affairs of the Company
including without limitation information contained in the Register and books of the Company. |
TRANSFER BY
WAY OF CONTINUATION
| 179. | The Company
may by Special Resolution resolve to be registered by way of continuation in a jurisdiction
outside the Cayman Islands or such other jurisdiction in which it is for the time being incorporated,
registered or existing. In furtherance of a resolution adopted pursuant to this Article,

or organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or organizational actions

documents of each of the Sponsors or (ii) require any consent or approval that has not been given or other action that has not been
taken by any Person (including under any Contract binding upon each of the Sponsors or their respective Subject Shares or Subject Warrants),

with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision
of this Sponsor Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other
or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SPONSOR AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS. FURTHERMORE,

Counterparts. The headings in this Sponsor Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the
construction or interpretation of any provision of this Sponsor Agreement. This Sponsor Agreement may be executed in two (2) or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
3.12 Specific
Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy,
would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Sponsor Agreement in accordance with its specified
terms or otherwise breach or threaten to breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled,
in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable
relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Sponsor Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof.
Without limiting the foregoing, each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance
and other equitable relief on the basis that (i) there is adequate remedy at law, or (ii) an award of specific performance
is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an order or injunction to prevent breaches or threatened
breaches and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Sponsor Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or
other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
2.1 Representations
and Warranties of the Shareholder. Each Shareholder represents and warrants as of the date hereof to SPAC, the Company and CayCo
(solely with respect to itself, himself or herself and not with respect to any other Shareholder) as follows:
(a) Organization;
Due Authorization. If such Shareholder is not an individual, it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
Laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, formed, organized or constituted, and the execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are within such Shareholder’s corporate, limited liability
company or organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or organizational
actions on the part of such Shareholder. If such Shareholder is an individual, such Shareholder has full legal capacity, right and authority
to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform his or her obligations hereunder. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered
by such Shareholder and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties to this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes
a legally valid and binding obligation of such Shareholder, enforceable against such Shareholder in accordance with the terms hereof
(except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy Laws, other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and general principles
of equity affecting the availability of specific performance and other equitable remedies). If this Agreement is being executed in a
representative or fiduciary capacity, the Person signing this Agreement has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement on
behalf of the applicable Shareholder.
(b) Ownership.
Such Shareholder is the record and beneficial owner (as defined in the Securities Act) of, and has good title to, all of such Shareholder’s
Subject Shares as indicated opposite such Shareholder’s name on Schedule I attached hereto, and there exist no Liens or
any other limitation or restriction (including any restriction on the right to vote, sell or otherwise dispose of such Subject Shares
(other than transfer restrictions under the Securities Act)) affecting any such Subject Shares, other than Liens pursuant to (i) this
Agreement, (ii) the Company’s Governing Documents’ or CayCo’s Governing Documents, (iii) the Business Combination
Agreement, or (iv) any applicable securities Laws. Such Shareholder’s Subject Shares as indicated opposite such Shareholder’s
name on Schedule I attached hereto are the only Securities in the Company or CayCo, as applicable, owned of record or beneficially
by such Shareholder on the date of this Agreement, and none of such Shareholder’s Subject Shares are subject to any proxy, voting
trust or other agreement or arrangement with respect to the voting of such Subject Shares. Other than as set forth opposite such Shareholder’s
name on Schedule I, such Shareholder does not hold or own any rights to acquire (directly or indirectly) any Securities.
(c) No
Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Shareholder does not, and the performance by such Shareholder of
his, her or its obligations hereunder will not, (i) if such Shareholder is not an individual, conflict with or result in a violation
of the organizational documents of such Shareholder, (ii) require any consent or approval that has not been given or other action
that has not been taken by any Person (including under any Contract binding upon such Shareholder or such Shareholder’s Subject
Shares), in each case, to the extent such consent, approval or other action would prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance
by such Shareholder of its, his or her obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) result in the creation of any Lien (other than
Permitted Liens) upon any of the properties or assets of the Group, to the extent the creation of such Lien would prevent, enjoin or
materially delay the performance by such Shareholder of its, his or her obligations under this Agreement.
(d) Litigation.
There are no Actions or other proceedings at law or in equity initiated or pending against such Shareholder, or to the knowledge of such
Shareholder threatened against such Shareholder, before (or, in the case of threatened Actions, that would be before) any arbitrator
or any Governmental Authority, which in any manner challenges or seeks to prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by such
Shareholder of its, his or her obligations under this Agreement. There is no outstanding Governmental Order imposed upon such Shareholder,
or if applicable, or any of the Shareholder’s Subsidiaries.
(e) Adequate
Information. Such Shareholder is a sophisticated shareholder and has adequate information concerning the business and financial condition
of SPAC, the Company and CayCo to make an informed decision regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Business
Combination Agreement and the Company Restructuring Documents, and has independently and without reliance upon SPAC, the Company or CayCo
and based on such information as such Shareholder has deemed appropriate, made its own analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.
Such Shareholder acknowledges that SPAC, the Company and CayCo have not made and do not make any representation or warranty to such Shareholder,
whether express or implied, of any kind or character except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Such Shareholder acknowledges that
the agreements contained herein with respect to the Subject Shares held by such Shareholder are irrevocable.
(f) Brokerage
Fees. Except as described on Section 5.16 of the Company Disclosure Letter, no broker, finder, investment banker or other Person
is entitled to any brokerage fee, finders’ fee or other commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business
Combination Agreement and the Company Restructuring Documents based upon arrangements made by such Shareholder, for which the Company,
CayCo or any of their respective Affiliates may become liable.
(g) Acknowledgment.
Such Shareholder understands and acknowledges that each of SPAC, the Company and CayCo is entering into the Business Combination Agreement
in reliance upon such Shareholder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and the representations, warranties, covenants and
other agreements of such Shareholder contained herein.
Article III
MISCELLANEOUS

This Agreement and all of its provisions shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier of (a) the Expiration

Upon such termination of this Agreement, all obligations of the parties under this Agreement will terminate, without any liability or
other obligation on the part of any party hereto to any Person in respect hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby, and no party
hereto shall have any claim against another (and no person shall have any rights against such party), whether under contract, tort or
otherwise, with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that the termination of this Agreement shall not
relieve any party hereto from liability arising in respect of any breach of this Agreement prior to such termination. This ARTICLE III
shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any
party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of
such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such
right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
remedy.

shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
3.12 Specific
Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate
remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified
terms or otherwise breach or threaten to breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled,

relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Without

(whether based on law, in equity, in contract, in tort or any other theory) or the negotiation, execution, performance or enforcement
of this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts
of law principles thereof that would subject such matter to the Laws of another jurisdiction. All legal proceedings arising under the
Laws of the State of New York out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any federal court sitting
in the Borough of Manhattan of The City of New York, provided, however, that if such federal court does not have jurisdiction over
such legal proceedings, they shall be heard and determined exclusively in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Commercial Division,
sitting in the Borough of Manhattan of The City of New York (and any appellate court therefrom). Each of the parties hereto agrees that

any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 3(e).
(f) Waiver
of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH OF THE PARTIES AND ANY
PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY MAY DO SO ONLY IF HE, SHE OR IT IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS ASSERTED IN ANY LEGAL DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENT

ARISING. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY NOR ANY PERSON
ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING
RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING
IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED.
(g) Entire
Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof, and any other written or oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties is expressly
canceled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit any of the rights, remedies or obligations of CayCo or
any of the Holders under any other agreement between any of the Holders and CayCo, and nothing in any other agreement, certificate or
instrument shall limit any of the rights, remedies or obligations of any of the Holders or CayCo under this Agreement.
(h) Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held
invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining
provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or
otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable
provision giving effect to the intent of the parties.
(i) Headings;
Counterparts. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction
or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
(j) Interpretation.
The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this
Agreement. In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires: (i) any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding
masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa; (ii) “including”
(and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding or succeeding
such term and shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (iii) the words “herein,”
“hereto,” and “hereby” and other words of similar import in this Agreement shall be deemed in each case to refer
to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section or other subdivision of this Agreement; and (iv) the term “or”
means “and/or”. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. Consequently, in
the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the
parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any
provision of this Agreement.
(k) Specific
Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate
remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified
terms or otherwise breach or threaten to breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled,
in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable
relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Without
limiting the foregoing, each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other
equitable relief on the basis that (i) there is adequate remedy at law; or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate
remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an order or injunction to prevent breaches or threatened breaches and to
enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection
with any such order or injunction.
(l) No
Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action that may be based upon, arise out of or
relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the
subject matter hereof may only be made against the parties hereto and no past, present or future Affiliate, director, officer, employee,
incorporator, member, manager, partner, shareholder, agent, attorney or representative of any party hereto or any past, present or future
Affiliate, director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, manager, partner, stockholder, agent, attorney or representative of any
of the foregoing (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”) shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the
parties to this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby. Without limiting
the rights of any party against the other parties hereto, in no event shall any party or any of its Affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement
against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, any Non-Recourse Party.
(m) Several
Liability. The liability of any Holder hereunder is several (and not joint). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
in no event will any Holder be liable for any other Holder’s breach of such other Holder’s obligations under this Agreement.

Article 2
REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
2.1 Resale
Shelf Registration Rights.
2.1.1 Registration
Statement Covering Resale of Registrable Securities. Within thirty (30) calendar days following the Closing Date, CayCo shall prepare
and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the Commission, a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form F-1 (the
“Form F-1 Shelf”) or a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form F-3 (the “Form F-3
Shelf”, together with the Form F-1 Shelf, the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”, as the case may
be), if CayCo is then eligible to use a Form F-3 Shelf, in each case, for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant
to Rule 415 of the Securities Act registering the resale from time to time by Holders of all of the Registrable Securities (determined
as of two (2) Business Days prior to such submission or filing). CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale
Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as possible after filing, but no later than the earlier of (a) the
thirtieth (30th) calendar day following the filing date hereof if the Commission notifies CayCo that it will “review” the
Registration Statement, and (b) the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date CayCo is notified (orally or in writing, whichever
is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review,
and once effective, to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act at all times until
the expiration of the Effectiveness Period. In the event CayCo files a Form F-1 Shelf, CayCo shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to convert the Form F-1 Shelf (and any subsequent Resale Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form F-3 Shelf as soon
as practicable after CayCo is eligible to use a Form F-3 Shelf. CayCo’s obligation under this Section 2.1.1, shall,
for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.2.
2.1.2 Notification
and Distribution of Materials. CayCo shall notify the Holders in writing of the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement
and shall furnish to them, without charge, such number of copies of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (including any amendments,
supplements and exhibits), the Prospectus contained therein (including each preliminary prospectus and all related amendments and supplements)
and any documents incorporated by reference in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or such other documents as the Holders may reasonably
request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities in the manner described in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement.
2.1.3 Amendments
and Supplements. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1.1 above, CayCo shall promptly prepare and file with the Commission
from time to time such amendments and supplements to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus used in connection therewith,
as may be necessary to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act,
with respect to the disposition of all the Registrable Securities during the Effectiveness Period. If a Resale Shelf Registration Statement
ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, CayCo
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable (a) cause such Resale Shelf Registration Statement
to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of
any order suspending the effectiveness of such Resale Shelf Registration Statement), (b) amend such Resale Shelf Registration Statement
in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Resale Shelf Registration
Statement, or (c) prepare and file an additional Resale Shelf Registration Statement (a “Subsequent Shelf”) registering
the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing), and pursuant to any method
or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. If a Subsequent Shelf is filed pursuant to
this Section 2.1.3, CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) cause such Subsequent Shelf to become effective
under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof, and (b) keep such Subsequent Shelf continuously
effective, available for use and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable
Securities. Any such Subsequent Shelf shall be on Form F-3 to the extent that CayCo is eligible to use such form, and shall be an
automatic shelf registration statement as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act if CayCo is a well-known, seasoned
issuer as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act, at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date.
CayCo’s obligation under this Section 2.1.3, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.2.
2.1.4 Change
in Registration. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2.1, in the event the Commission
informs CayCo that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale
as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, CayCo agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the holders thereof and use
its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or
(ii) withdraw the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”),
in either case covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission, on Form F-3 or
such other form available, to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however,
that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, CayCo shall be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts
to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available, written
or oral guidance; comments; requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the “SEC Guidance”), including without
limitation, the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations D.29. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if
any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration
Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that CayCo used diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration
of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a holder as to its Registrable Securities,
the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis, based
on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders, and subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders
must be reduced first, based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders. In the event that CayCo amends the Resale Shelf
Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, CayCo will
use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to
CayCo or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form F-3 or such other form available, to
register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, as amended,
or the New Registration Statement.
2.1.5 Notice
of Certain Events. CayCo shall promptly notify the Holders in writing of any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement
to, or additional information in connection with, the Resale Shelf Registration Statement required to be prepared and filed hereunder
(or Prospectus relating thereto). CayCo shall promptly notify each Holder, in writing, of the filing of the Resale Shelf Registration
Statement or any Prospectus, amendment or supplement related thereto, or any post-effective amendment to the Resale Shelf Registration
Statement, and of the effectiveness of any post-effective amendment.
2.1.6 Underwritten
Takedown.
(a) If
CayCo shall receive a request from the holders of Registrable Securities with an estimated market value of at least US$10 million (the
requesting holder(s) shall be referred to herein as the (“Requesting Holder”)) that CayCo effect the Underwritten
Takedown of all or any portion of the Requesting Holder’s Registrable Securities, and specifying the intended method of disposition
thereof, then CayCo shall promptly give notice of such requested, Underwritten Takedown (each such request shall be referred to herein
as a (“Demand Takedown”)) at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of the prospectus
or supplement relating to such Demand Takedown to the other Holders, and thereupon shall use its reasonable, best efforts to effect, as
expeditiously as possible, the offering in such Underwritten Takedown of:
(i) subject
to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.2.4, all Registrable Securities for which the Requesting Holder has requested such
offering under Section 2.1.6(a), and
(ii) subject
to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.2.4, all other Registrable Securities that any holders of Registrable Securities
(all such holders, together with the Requesting Holder, the “Selling Holders”) have requested CayCo to offer by request,
received by CayCo within seven (7) Business Days after such holders receive CayCo’s notice of the Demand Takedown, all to the
extent necessary to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities
so to be offered.
(b) Promptly
after the expiration of the seven (7)-Business Day-period referred to in Section 2.1.6(a)(ii), CayCo will notify all Selling
Holders of the identities of the other Selling Holders and the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein.
(c) CayCo
shall only be required to effectuate no more than three (3) Underwritten Takedowns in any twelve (12)-month period, after giving
effect to Section 2.2.1.
(d) If
the managing underwriter in an Underwritten Takedown advises CayCo and the Requesting Holder(s) that, in its view, the number of
shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such underwritten offering exceeds the largest number of shares that can
be sold without having an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such shares can be sold, the shares included in
such Underwritten Takedown will be reduced by the Registrable Securities held by the Selling Holders (applied on a pro rata basis,
based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders, subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders
must be reduced first, based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders).
2.1.7 Selection
of Underwriters. The Requesting Holder shall have the right to select an Underwriter or Underwriters in connection with such Underwritten
Takedown, which Underwriter or Underwriters selected shall be reasonably acceptable to CayCo. In connection with an Underwritten Takedown,
CayCo shall enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are
reasonably required, in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Takedown,
including, if necessary, the engagement of a “qualified independent underwriter” in connection with the qualification of
the underwriting arrangements with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
2.1.8 Registrations
effected pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.2.
2.1.9 Block
Trades. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if a Requesting Holder wishes to consummate a Block Trade (on either
a Commission registered or non-registered basis), then notwithstanding the time periods and piggyback rights otherwise provided herein,
such Requesting Holder shall, if it would like the assistance of CayCo, endeavor to give CayCo sufficient advance notice in order to
prepare the appropriate documentation for such transaction. Such Requesting Holder, if requesting a Commission registered underwritten
Block Trade, (1) shall give CayCo written notice of the transaction and the anticipated launch date of the transaction at least
two (2) Business Days prior to the anticipated launch date of the transaction, (2) CayCo shall be required to only notify the
other Requesting Holders of the transaction and none of the other Holders, (3) the other Requesting Holders shall have one (1) Business
Day prior to the launch of the transaction to determine if they wish to participate in the Block Trade, and (4) CayCo shall include
in the Block Trade only shares held by the Requesting Holders. Any Registration effected pursuant to this Section 2.1.9 shall
not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.2, but shall be deemed an Underwritten Takedown, and
within the cap on Underwritten Takedowns provided in Section 2.1.6(c). The Requesting Holder in a Block Trade shall have
the right to select the Underwriters for such Block Trade (which shall consist of one or more reputable, nationally recognized investment
banks).
2.2 Demand
Registration.
2.2.1 Request
for Registration. During such time when there is no effective Resale Shelf Registration Statement, at any time, and from time to
time after the Merger Effective Time, if any, (i) the SPAC Holders who hold at least fifteen per cent (15%) of the Registrable Securities
held by all SPAC Holders or (ii) Company Holders who hold US$20 million of the Registrable Securities held by all Company Holders,
as the case may be, may make a written demand for Registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities
on Form F-1 or any similar, long-form Registration or, if then available, on Form F-3. Each registration requested pursuant
to this Section 2.2.1 is referred to herein as a “Demand Registration”. Any demand for a Demand Registration
shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof.
CayCo will, within five (5) days of its receipt of the Demand Registration, notify all Holders that are holders of Registrable Securities
of the demand, and each such holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion of such holder’s Registrable
Securities in the Demand Registration (each such holder including shares of Registrable Securities in such registration, a “Demanding
Holder”) shall so notify CayCo within five (5) days after the receipt by the holder of the notice from CayCo. Upon any
such request, the Demanding Holders shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject
to Section 2.2.4 and the provisos set forth in Section 3.1.1. CayCo shall not be obligated to effect: (a) more
than one (1) Demand Registration during any six (6)-month period; or (b) more than six (6) Underwritten Demand Registrations
in respect of all Registrable Securities held by the Holders, provided that if the Registrable Securities sought to be included
in the Registration pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 are not fully included in such Registration for any reason other than
solely due to the action or inaction of the Holders, then such Registration shall not be deemed to constitute a Demand Registration pursuant
to this Section 2.2.1.
2.2.2 Effective
Registration. A Registration will not count as a Demand Registration unless and until (i) the Registration Statement filed with
the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective by the Commission and (ii) CayCo has complied
with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration
Statement has been declared effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by
any stop order or injunction of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court, the Registration Statement with respect to
such Demand Registration will be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction
is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders thereafter elect to continue
the offering.
2.2.3 Underwritten
Offering. If the Demanding Holders so elect and such holders so advise CayCo as part of their written demand for a Demand Registration,
the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering with
an estimated market value of at least US$10 million. In such an event, the right of any holder to include its Registrable Securities
in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting, and the inclusion of such holder’s
Registrable Securities in the underwriting, to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable
Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters
selected for such underwriting by the holders initiating the Demand Registration, and subject to the approval of CayCo, provided
that such approval shall not be withheld by CayCo unreasonably.
2.2.4 Reduction
of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises
CayCo and the Demanding Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding Holders
desire to sell, taken together with all other CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities which CayCo desires to sell and CayCo Ordinary
Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other
shareholders of CayCo who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such offering
without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering
(such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, the (“Maximum Number of Shares”)), then CayCo
shall include in such registration: (i) the Registrable Securities as to which Demand Registration has been requested by the Demanding
Holders (pro rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such Person has requested be included in such registration, regardless
of the number of shares held by each such Person (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that
can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached
under the foregoing clause (i), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities that CayCo desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding
the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses
(i) and (ii), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of other Persons that CayCo is obligated to register pursuant
to written contractual arrangements with such Persons, as to which “piggy-back” registration has been requested by the holders
thereof, Pro Rata, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.
2.2.5 Withdrawal.
If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwriting or are not entitled to include all of
their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw from such offering
by giving written notice to CayCo and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. If the majority-in-interest of the Demanding
Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration, then either the Demanding Holders shall reimburse CayCo
for the costs associated with the withdrawn registration (in which case such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration provided
for in Section 2.2) or the withdrawn registration shall count as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.2.
2.3 Piggy-Back
Registration.
2.3.1 Piggy-Back
Rights. If CayCo proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity
securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by CayCo for
its own account or for shareholders of CayCo for their account (or by CayCo and by shareholders of CayCo) including, without limitation,
pursuant to Section 2.1, other than a Registration Statement (i) filed pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof; (ii) filed
in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (iii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely
to CayCo’s existing shareholders, (iv) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of CayCo, (v) filed
on Form F-4, related to any merger, acquisition or business combination, (vi) for a dividend reinvestment plan or (vii) filed
in connection with a Block Trade by one or more holders of Registrable Securities in accordance with Section 2.1.9, then
CayCo shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but
in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities
to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters,
if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale
of such number of Registrable Securities as such holders may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice
(a “Piggy-Back Registration”). CayCo shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggy-Back Registration
and, if applicable, shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering
to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar
securities of CayCo, and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of
distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration
that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form, with the Underwriter or Underwriters
selected for such Piggy-Back Registration.
2.3.2 Reduction
of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises
CayCo and the holders of Registrable Securities in writing that the dollar amount or number of CayCo Ordinary Shares which CayCo desires
to sell, taken together with CayCo Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to written contractual
arrangements with Persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder and the Registrable Securities as to which registration
has been requested under this Section 2.3, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then CayCo shall include in any such registration:
(a) If
the Registration is undertaken for CayCo’s account: (i) CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities that CayCo desires to sell
that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (ii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not
been reached under the foregoing clause (i), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, as
to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares,
Pro Rata; and (iii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and
(ii), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that CayCo is obligated to register pursuant to written
contractual piggy-back registration rights with such Persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and
(b) If
the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of Persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities,
(i) CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of the demanding Persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum
Number of Shares; (ii) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), CayCo
Ordinary Shares or other securities that CayCo desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) to
the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), CayCo Ordinary Shares
or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration has been requested pursuant
to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (iv) to the extent that the Maximum Number
of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), CayCo Ordinary Shares or other securities for the
account of other Persons that CayCo is obligated to register, pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such Persons, that can
be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.
2.3.3 Withdrawal.
Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any
Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to CayCo of such request to withdraw, prior to the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement. CayCo (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by Persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual
obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding
any such withdrawal, CayCo shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Registrable Securities in connection with such Piggy-Back
Registration, as provided in Section 3.3.
2.3.4 Unlimited
Piggy-Back Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof shall not be counted
as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.2 hereof, and there shall be no limit on the
number of Piggy-Back Registrations.
Article 3
REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.
3.1 Filings;
Information. Whenever CayCo is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Article 2
or effecting an underwritten Block Trade, CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and sale of
such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof as expeditiously as practicable, and
in connection with any such request:
3.1.1 Filing
Registration Statement. CayCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, as expeditiously as possible after receipt of a request
for a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.2, prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement on any form
for which CayCo then qualifies or which counsel for CayCo shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale of all
Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof, and shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and use its commercially reasonable
efforts to keep it effective for the Effectiveness Period; provided, however, that CayCo shall have the right to defer
any Demand Registration for up to sixty (60) days, and any Piggy-Back Registration for such period as may be applicable to deferment
of any “demand” registration to which such Piggy-Back Registration relates, in each case if CayCo shall furnish to the holders
a certificate signed by the chief executive officer or chief financial officer of CayCo stating that, in the good faith judgment of the
Board, it would be materially detrimental to CayCo and its shareholders for such Registration Statement to be effected at such time.
3.1.2 Limitations.
CayCo shall not have the right to exercise the right set forth in the immediately preceding section on more than one occasion for more
than sixty (60) total days in aggregate during any twelve (12)-month period.
3.1.3 Copies.
CayCo shall, at least ten (10) days prior to filing a Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto,
furnish without charge to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration, and such holders’ legal counsel,
copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each
case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement
(including each preliminary prospectus), and such other documents as the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration
or legal counsel for any such holders may request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such
holders.
3.1.4 Amendments
and Supplements. CayCo shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements
to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement
effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by
such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution set forth in such Registration
Statement or such securities have been withdrawn (the “Effectiveness Period”).
3.1.5 Notification.
After the filing of a Registration Statement, CayCo shall promptly, and in no event more than two (2) Business Days after the occurrence
of any of the events set forth in this section, notify the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement
of such filing, and shall further notify such holders promptly and confirm such advice in writing in all events: (i) when such Registration
Statement becomes effective; (ii) when any post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement becomes effective; (iii) the
issuance or threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order (and CayCo shall take all actions required to prevent the entry of
such stop order or to remove it if entered); and (iv) any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to such Registration
Statement or any prospectus relating thereto or for additional information or of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation
of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the securities covered by such
Registration Statement, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. CayCo shall promptly make available to the holders of
Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment prepared in connection with the immediate
preceding proviso; provided that before filing with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, CayCo shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities included

in advance of filing to provide such holders and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comment thereon.
3.1.6 Securities
Laws Compliance. CayCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered

holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may reasonably
request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered
with or approved by such other Governmental Authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of CayCo and do
any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the holders of Registrable Securities included in such
Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however,
that CayCo shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to
qualify but for this paragraph or subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction.

The representations, warranties and covenants of CayCo in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters,
to the extent applicable, shall also be made to and for the benefit of the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration
statement, and the representations, warranties and covenants of the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement
in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters, to the extent applicable, shall also be made
to and for the benefit of CayCo.

Letter. CayCo shall obtain a “cold comfort” letter from CayCo’s independent registered public accountants or auditor

comfort” letters as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the
participating Holders.
3.1.9 Opinions.
On the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to any Registration, CayCo shall obtain an opinion and an negative
assurance letter, dated such date, of one (1) counsel representing CayCo for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the
Holders participating in such Registration, the placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal
matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which as the Holders, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriter may reasonably
request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in
interest of the participating Holders.
3.1.10 Cooperation.
The chief executive officer of CayCo, the chief financial officer of CayCo, the chief accounting officer of CayCo and all other officers
and members of the management of CayCo shall cooperate fully in any offering of Registrable Securities hereunder, which cooperation shall
include, without limitation, the preparation of the Registration Statement with respect to such offering and all other offering materials
and related documents, and participation in meetings with Underwriters, attorneys, accountants and potential Holders. CayCo shall use
its reasonable efforts to make available the chief executive officer of CayCo, the chief financial officer of CayCo and all other officers
and members of the management of CayCo to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested
by the Underwriter in any underwritten offering.
3.1.11 Records.
Upon execution of confidentiality agreements, CayCo shall make available for inspection by the Holders of Registrable Securities included

accountant or other professional retained by any Holder of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement or any Underwriter,
all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of CayCo, as shall be necessary to enable them to exercise
their due diligence responsibility, and cause CayCo’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information requested by

3.1.13 Listing.
CayCo shall cause all Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement to be listed on such exchanges or otherwise designated

3.1.14 Market
Stand-Off. In connection with any underwritten offering of equity securities of CayCo (other than a Block Trade) in which a Holder
participates, such Holder agrees that it shall not Transfer any CayCo Ordinary Shares or other equity securities of CayCo (other than
those included in such offering pursuant to this Agreement), without the prior written consent of CayCo, during the ninety (90)-day period
(or such shorter time agreed to by the managing Underwriters) beginning on the date of pricing of such offering, except as expressly
permitted by such lock-up agreement or in the event the managing Underwriters otherwise agree by written consent. Each Holder agrees
to execute a customary lock-up agreement in favor of the Underwriters to such effect (in each case on substantially the same terms and
conditions as all such Holders); provided that, such agreement shall not be materially more restrictive than any similar agreement
entered into by the directors and executive officers of CayCo participating in such underwritten offering; provided, further,

the first sentence of Section 3.1.5, each holder of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall immediately
discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities, pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities,
until such holder receives the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.1.5 or it is advised by the Company
in writing that the use of the Registration Statement can be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration
Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require CayCo to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion
in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to CayCo for reasons beyond CayCo control, CayCo may, upon
giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration
Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than thirty (30) days, determined in good faith by the Board to be necessary
for such purpose. CayCo shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under
this Section 3.2.
3.3 Registration
Expenses. Except as set forth in Section 2.2.5, CayCo shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with

Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, any Demand Takedown pursuant to Section 2.1.6(a)(i), any Piggy-Back Registration
pursuant to Section 2.3, and all expenses incurred in performing or complying with its other obligations under this Agreement,
whether or not the Registration Statement becomes effective, including, without limitation: (i) all registration and filing fees;
(ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or “blue sky” Laws (including fees and disbursements of counsel
in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities); (iii) printing expenses; (iv) CayCo’s internal
expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees); (v) the fees and expenses incurred
in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities as required by Section 3.1.11; (vi) Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority fees; (vii) fees and disbursements of counsel for CayCo and fees and expenses for independent certified public
accountants retained by CayCo; (viii) the fees and expenses of any special experts retained by CayCo in connection with such registration,
and (ix) the reasonable fees and expenses of one legal counsel selected by the holders of a majority-in-interest of the Registrable
Securities included in such registration, not to exceed $150,000 without the consent of CayCo. CayCo shall have no obligation to pay
any underwriting discounts or selling commissions attributable to the Registrable Securities being sold by the holders thereof, which
underwriting discounts or selling commissions shall be borne by such holders. Additionally, in an underwritten offering, all participating
Holders and CayCo shall bear the expenses of the Underwriter pro rata in proportion to the respective amount of shares each is
selling in such offering.
3.4 Information.
The Holders of Registrable Securities shall promptly provide such information as may reasonably be requested by CayCo, or the managing
Underwriter, if any, in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement, including amendments and supplements thereto,
in order to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act and in connection with CayCo’s obligation
to comply with Federal and applicable state securities Laws.
Article 4
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.
4.1 Indemnification
by CayCo. CayCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Holder, and each
of their respective officers, employees, affiliates, directors, partners, members, attorneys and agents, and each Person, if any, who
controls an Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, a “Holder
Indemnified Party”), from and against any expenses, losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several,
arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or allegedly untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement
under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus
or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arising
out of or based upon any omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, or any violation by CayCo of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder
applicable to CayCo and relating to action or inaction required of CayCo in connection with any such registration; and CayCo shall promptly
reimburse the Holder Indemnified Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Holder Indemnified Party in connection
with investigating and defending any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or Action; provided, however,
that CayCo will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or
is based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement,
preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity
with information furnished to CayCo, in writing, by such selling Holder expressly for use therein, or is based on any selling Holder’s
violation of the federal securities Laws (including Regulation M) or failure to sell the Registrable Securities in accordance with the
plan of distribution contained in the prospectus.
4.2 Indemnification
by Holders of Registrable Securities. Each selling Holder of Registrable Securities will, in the event that any Registration
is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling Holder, indemnify
and hold harmless CayCo, each of its directors and officers, and each other selling Holder and each other Person, if any, who controls
another selling Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities, whether
joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities (or Actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which
the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary
prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or
are based upon any omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement
therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing
to CayCo by such selling Holder expressly for use therein, or is based on any selling Holder’s violation of the federal securities
Laws (including Regulation M) or failure to sell the Registrable Securities in accordance with the plan of distribution contained in
the prospectus, and shall reimburse CayCo, its directors and officers, and each other selling Holder or controlling Person for any legal
or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability
or Action. Each selling Holder’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the
amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling Holder in connection with such Registration.
4.3 Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability or
any Action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Sections 4.1 or 4.2, such Person (the “Indemnified
Party”) shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other Person for indemnification hereunder, notify such
other Person (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability or Action; provided,
however, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from
any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying
Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or Action
brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or Action, and, to
the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory
to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the
defense of such claim or Action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided,
however, that in any Action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified
Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel, which counsel is reasonably acceptable
to the Indemnifying Party) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling Persons who may be subject to liability arising out
of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses
of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written opinion of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation
of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying
Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any
claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could
have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified
Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding. The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer
of Registrable Securities.
4.4 Contribution.
4.4.1 If
the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified
Party in respect of any loss, claim, damage, liability or Action referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying
such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage,
liability or Action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying
Parties in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or Action, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state
a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
4.4.2 The
parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4.2 were determined
by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in the immediately preceding Section 4.4.1.
4.4.3 The
amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim, damage, liability or Action referred to in the immediately
preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such
Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4,
no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after
payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities
which gave rise to such contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
Article 5
RE-SALE RIGHT AND RULE 144 REPORTING
5.1 Re-Sale

share issuance or transfer fees or expenses and stock transfer taxes in relation to any sale or disposition of the Registrable Securities).

the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and (c) furnish to the Holder promptly upon request (i) a written statement by CayCo
as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, or its qualification as
a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most
recent annual or quarterly report of CayCo, and (iii) such other reports and documents of CayCo as the Holder may reasonably request
in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant

of Information. To the extent permitted by antitrust, competition or any other applicable Law, each of CayCo and the Holders
agrees and acknowledges that the directors designated by the Sponsor may share confidential, non-public information about CayCo and its
Subsidiaries (“Confidential Information”) with the Sponsor Parties. Each Sponsor Party recognizes that it, or its
affiliates and representatives, has acquired or will acquire Confidential Information the use or disclosure of which could cause CayCo
substantial loss and damages that could not be readily calculated and for which no remedy at law would be adequate. Accordingly, each
Sponsor Party covenants and agrees with CayCo that it will not (and will cause its respective controlled affiliates and representatives
not to) at any time, except with the prior written consent of CayCo, directly or indirectly, disclose any Confidential Information known
to it to any third party, unless (a) such information becomes known to the public through no fault of such party, (b) disclosure
is required by applicable Law (including any filing following the Closing with the Commission pursuant to applicable securities Laws)
or court of competent jurisdiction or requested by a governmental or regulatory authority; provided that, (other than in the case
of any required filing following the Closing with the Commission, or in connection with any routine audit or examination as described
below) such Sponsor Party promptly notifies CayCo of such requirement or request, and takes commercially reasonable steps, at the sole
cost and expense of CayCo, to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure, (c) such information was available or becomes
available to such Sponsor Party before, on or after the Closing, without restriction, from a source (other than CayCo) without any breach
of duty to CayCo or (d) such information was independently developed by such Sponsor Party, its affiliates or its representatives
without the use of the Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit any Sponsor
Party from disclosing Confidential Information (x) to any affiliate or representative of such Sponsor Party, or any limited partner,
member or shareholder of any of the foregoing, provided that, such Person shall be bound by an obligation of confidentiality with
respect to such Confidential Information, and such Sponsor Party shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 6.3
by any such Person, or (y) if such disclosure is made to a governmental or regulatory authority with jurisdiction over such Sponsor
Party in connection with a routine audit or examination that is not specifically directed at CayCo or the Confidential Information, provided
that, such Sponsor Party shall request that confidential treatment be accorded to any information so disclosed. No Confidential Information
shall be deemed to be provided to any Person, including any affiliate of the Sponsor Parties unless such Confidential Information is
actually provided to such Person.
6.4 Other
Business Opportunities.
6.4.1 The
parties expressly acknowledge and agree that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law: (i) the Sponsor (including (a) its
affiliates, (b) any portfolio company in which it or any of its affiliates or investment fund affiliates have made a debt or equity
investment (and vice versa), or (c) any of their respective limited partners, non-managing members (or other similar, direct or
indirect investors) and the director nominees of the foregoing) has the right to, and shall have no duty (fiduciary, contractual or otherwise)
not to, directly or indirectly engage in and possess interests in other business ventures of every type and description, including those
engaged in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or deemed to be competing
with CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, on its own account, or in partnership with, or as an employee, officer, director or shareholder
of any other Person, with no obligation to offer to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, or any other Holder or holder of share capital
of CayCo the right to participate therein; (ii) the Sponsor (including (a) its affiliates, (b) any portfolio company in
which it or any of its affiliates or investment fund affiliates have made a debt or equity investment (and vice versa) or (c) any
of their respective limited partners, non-managing members (or other similar, direct or indirect investors) and the director nominees
of the foregoing) may invest in, or provide services to, any Person that directly or indirectly competes with CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries;
and (iii) in the event that the Sponsor (including (a) its affiliates, (b) any portfolio company in which it or any of
its affiliates or investment fund affiliates have made a debt or equity investment (and vice versa) or (c) any of their respective
limited partners, non-managing members (or other similar, direct or indirect investors) or any director nominee of the foregoing, respectively)
acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate or other business opportunity for CayCo or any of its
Subsidiaries, such Person shall have no duty (fiduciary, contractual or otherwise) to communicate or present such corporate opportunity
to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Holder or holder of share capital of CayCo, as the case may be, and, notwithstanding
any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shall not be liable to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Holder or holder
of share capital of CayCo (or its respective affiliates) for breach of any duty (fiduciary, contractual or otherwise) by reason of the
fact that such Person, directly or indirectly, pursues or acquires such opportunity for itself, directs such opportunity to another Person
or does not present such opportunity to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Holder or holder of share capital of CayCo (or
its respective affiliates). For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that this paragraph is intended to disclaim and renounce,
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any right of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or any Holder, with respect to the matters
set forth herein, and this paragraph shall be construed to effect such disclaimer and renunciation to the fullest extent permitted by
Law.
6.4.2 Each
of the parties hereby, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law:
(a) confirms
that none of the Sponsor nor any of its affiliates have any duty to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or to any other Holder other than
the specific covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement;
(b) acknowledges
and agrees that (a) in the event of any conflict of interest between CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any of
the Sponsor or any of its affiliates (or any director nominee of the foregoing acting in his or her capacity as such), on the other hand,
the Sponsor or such applicable affiliates (or any director nominee of the foregoing acting in his or her capacity as a director) may act
in its best interest, and (b) none of the Sponsor or any of its affiliates or any director nominee of the foregoing acting in his
or her capacity as a director or observer, shall be obligated (1) to reveal to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries confidential information
belonging to or relating to the business of such Person or any of its affiliates, or (2) to recommend or take any action in its capacity
as a direct or indirect shareholder or director, as the case may be, that prefers the interest of CayCo or its Subsidiaries over the interest
of such Person; and
(c) waives
any claim or cause of action against any of the Sponsor and any of its affiliates, and any officer, employee, agent or affiliate of any
such Person that may from time to time arise in respect of a breach by any such Person of any duty or obligation disclaimed under this
Section 6.4.
6.4.3 Each
of the parties hereto agrees that the waivers, limitations, acknowledgments and agreements set forth in this Section 6.4 shall
not apply to any alleged claim or cause of action against any of the Sponsor, based upon the breach or non-performance by such Person
of this Agreement or any other agreement to which such Person is a party.
6.4.4 The
provisions of this Section 6.4, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of any of the Sponsor or its affiliates
or any director nominee of the foregoing otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the parties to replace such other duties
and liabilities of the Sponsor or any of its affiliates or any director nominee of the foregoing to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
Law.
6.5 Indemnification;
Exculpation.
6.5.1 As
an inducement for the Sponsor to enter into this Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement,
subject in each case to restrictions under applicable Law, CayCo will, and CayCo will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, jointly and severally
indemnify, exonerate and hold the Sponsor and its direct and indirect partners, equityholders, members, managers, affiliates, directors,
officers, shareholders, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees, representatives and agents and each of the partners, equityholders,
members, affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively,
the “Sponsor Indemnitees”) free and harmless from and against any and all Actions, liabilities, losses, damages and
costs and out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Sponsor
Indemnitees or any of them before or after the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”),
arising out of any Action arising directly or indirectly out of, or in any way relating to, (i) any Sponsor’s or its affiliates’
ownership of equity securities of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries or control of or ability to influence CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries
(other than any such Indemnified Liabilities (x) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise out of any breach of this Agreement
by such Sponsor Indemnitee or its affiliates or other related Persons or, subject to applicable Law, the breach of any fiduciary or other
duty or obligation of such Sponsor Indemnitee to its direct or indirect equityholders, creditors or affiliates, (y) to the extent
such control or the ability to control CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries derives from such Sponsor’s or its affiliates’ capacity
as an officer or director of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries, or (z) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are directly caused
by such Person’s willful misconduct), (ii) the business, operations, properties, assets or other rights or liabilities of CayCo
or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) any services provided prior to, on or after the date of this Agreement by any Sponsor or its
affiliates to CayCo any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that if and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking
may be unavailable or unenforceable for any reason, CayCo will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, make the maximum contribution to the
payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable Law. For the purposes of this Section 6.5,
none of the circumstances described in the limitations contained in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed
to apply absent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to such effect, in which case to the extent any such
limitation is so determined to apply to any Sponsor Indemnitee as to any previously advanced indemnity payments made by CayCo or any of
its Subsidiaries, then such payments shall be promptly repaid by such Sponsor Indemnitee to CayCo and its Subsidiaries. The rights of
any Sponsor Indemnitee to indemnification hereunder will be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other agreement
or instrument to which such Sponsor Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under Law or under the
Governing Documents of CayCo or its Subsidiaries.
6.5.2 CayCo
will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, jointly and severally, reimburse any Sponsor Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any other litigation-related expenses) as they are incurred in connection
with investigating, preparing, pursuing, defending or assisting in the defense of any Action for which the Sponsor Indemnitee would be
entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Section 6.5, or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or
not such Sponsor Indemnitee is a party thereto. CayCo or its Subsidiaries, in the defense of any Action for which a Sponsor Indemnitee
would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Section 6.5, may, without the consent of such Sponsor Indemnitee,
consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement, if and only if, it (i) includes as a term thereof the giving
by the claimant or plaintiff therein to such Sponsor Indemnitee of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such Action,
(ii) does not impose any limitations (equitable or otherwise) on such Sponsor Indemnitee, and (iii) does not include a statement
as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Sponsor Indemnitee, and provided that,
the only penalty imposed in connection with such settlement is a monetary payment that will be paid in full by CayCo or its Subsidiaries.
6.5.3 CayCo
acknowledges and agrees that CayCo shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause its Subsidiaries to, be fully and primarily responsible
for the payment to any Sponsor Indemnitee in respect of Indemnified Liabilities in connection with any Jointly Indemnifiable Claims (as
defined below), pursuant to and in accordance with (as applicable) the terms of (i) CayCo’s Governing Documents, each as amended,
(ii) any director indemnification agreement, (iii) this Agreement, any other agreement between CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries
and such Sponsor Indemnitee (or its affiliates) pursuant to which such Sponsor Indemnitee is indemnified, (iv) the Laws of the jurisdiction
of incorporation or organization of any Subsidiary of CayCo, and/or (v) the Governing Documents of CayCo’s Subsidiaries ((i) through
(v) above, collectively, the “Indemnification Sources”), irrespective of any right of recovery such Sponsor Indemnitee
(or its affiliates) may have from any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan
or other enterprise (other than CayCo, any of its Subsidiaries or the insurer under and pursuant to any insurance policy of CayCo or any
of its Subsidiaries) from whom such Sponsor Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification with respect to which, in whole or in part,
CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries may also have an indemnification obligation (collectively, the “Indemnitee-Related Entities”).
Under no circumstance shall CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries be entitled to any right of subrogation or contribution by the Indemnitee-Related
Entities and no right of advancement or recovery any Sponsor Indemnitee may have from the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall reduce or
otherwise alter the rights of such Sponsor Indemnitee or the obligations of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries under the Indemnification
Sources. In the event that any of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall make any payment to any Sponsor Indemnitee in respect of indemnification
with respect to any Jointly Indemnifiable Claim, (x) CayCo shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause its Subsidiaries to, reimburse
the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment to the extent of such payment promptly upon written demand from such Indemnitee-Related
Entity, (y) to the extent not previously and fully reimbursed by CayCo and/or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to clause (x),
the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment shall be subrogated to the extent of the outstanding balance of such payment to all
of the rights of recovery of the Sponsor Indemnitee against CayCo and/or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and (z) such Sponsor
Indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights,
including the execution of such documents as may be necessary to enable the Indemnitee-Related Entities effectively to bring suit to enforce
such rights. Each party hereto agree that each of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this
Section 6.5, entitled to enforce this Section 6.5.3 as though each such Indemnitee-Related Entity were a party
to this Agreement. CayCo shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to perform the terms and obligations of this Section 6.5.3 as
though each such Subsidiary were a party to this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 6.5.3, the term (“Jointly
Indemnifiable Claims”) shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, any Indemnified Liabilities for which
any Sponsor Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification from both (1) CayCo and/or any of its Subsidiaries, pursuant to the Indemnification
Sources, on the one hand, and (2) any Indemnitee-Related Entity pursuant to any other agreement between any Indemnitee-Related Entity
and such Sponsor Indemnitee (or its affiliates), pursuant to which such Sponsor Indemnitee is indemnified, the Laws of the jurisdiction
of incorporation or organization of any Indemnitee-Related Entity and/or the Governing Documents of any Indemnitee-Related Entity, on
the other hand.
6.5.4 In
no event shall any Sponsor Indemnitee be liable to CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries for any act, alleged act, omission or alleged omission
that does not constitute willful misconduct or fraud of such Sponsor Indemnitee as determined by a final, non-appealable determination
of a court of competent jurisdiction.
6.5.5 Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, for purposes of this Section 6.5, the term Sponsor Indemnitees shall
not include any Sponsor or its any of its partners, equityholders, members, affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling
Persons, employees and agents or any of the partners, equityholders, members, affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers,
controlling Persons, employees and agents of any of the foregoing who is an officer or director of CayCo or any of its Subsidiaries in
such capacity as officer or director. Such officers and directors are or will be subject to separate indemnification in such capacity
through this Agreement and/or the Governing Documents and other agreements and instruments of CayCo and its Subsidiaries (including as
contemplated in Section 6.1).
6.5.6 The
rights of any Sponsor Indemnitee to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.5 will be in addition to any other rights any
such Person may have under any other section of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which such Sponsor Indemnitee
is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under Law or under the Governing Documents of CayCo and its Subsidiaries.

(including with respect to any defined term as used therein, whether or not such defined term is defined therein) that adversely

the Sponsor. No course of dealing between any holder or CayCo and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a holder
or CayCo in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any holder
or CayCo. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude

further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Article 6 (including with respect to any defined term
as used therein, whether or not such defined term is defined therein) shall terminate on the date upon which the Sponsor no longer has
the right to nominate or designate any individual to serve as a director of CayCo (including pursuant to Section 6.1.4).
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of Section 6.1.7(ii), Section 6.4, Section 6.5
and Article 7 (including with respect to any defined term as used therein, whether or not such defined term is defined
therein) shall survive, and remain in full force and effect following, any termination of this Agreement.

Exhibit 99.1
Femco
Steel Technology Co., Ltd. to be Publicly Listed in the U.S. Through a Business Combination with Chenghe Acquisition I Co.
Hong Kong and Taipei – December 22, 2023 - Chenghe
Acquisition I Co. (Nasdaq: LATG) (“Chenghe” or “SPAC”) and Femco Steel Technology Co., Ltd. (TWO:
6731) (“FST” or the “Company”), an innovative golf shaft manufacturer, today announced they have
entered into a business combination agreement (the “Definitive Agreement”) among Chenghe, FST, FST Corp. (“CayCo”)
and FST Merger Ltd., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo (“Merger Sub”, and together with CayCo and FST, the
“Company Parties”) for a business combination (the “Business Combination”) that would result in
FST becoming a publicly listed company in the United States.
FST designs, manufactures, and sells golf shafts under its proprietary
brand, KBS, and golf shafts for other global golf club brands, with the vision to become a leading global brand in golf shafts and golf
accessories. FST believes that the Business Combination with Chenghe and becoming a U.S. listed company will enhance the operational efficiency
of its brand strategy and contribute to the long-term internationalization goals.
Management Commentary
David Chuang, Chairman of the Board of FST, said: “This transaction
will give us the resources that will enable us to capture the positive trends in our industry. Given that the U.S. is biggest market for
our KBS brand in particular and golf shafts in general, we intend to invest and leverage on our position in the U.S. golf market and accelerate
our reach and depth in the global golf market so as to increase KBS brand value globally.”
“We are delighted to announce our
agreement with Femco Steel Technology Co., Ltd.” said Shibin Wang, Chairman of the Board of
Chenghe Acquisition I Co. “The proposed business combination marks a pivotal shift from the FST's current listing on the Taipei
Exchange to an upcoming placement on Nasdaq. This strategic move is designed to leverage FST's expertise in the design, development, and
manufacturing of golf shafts, allowing it to access the global capital markets as a Nasdaq-listed company. This transition is expected
to enhance market access, potentially boosting shareholder value and strengthening FST's market presence, and the Company’s established
operational strengths and market positioning are set to be key contributors in this new chapter, reinforcing their commitment to industry
excellence and sustainable growth.”
Transaction Overview
In accordance with the terms of the Definitive Agreement, Merger Sub
shall be merged with and into SPAC with SPAC being the surviving company and as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of CayCo, and SPAC will
change its name to “FST Ltd.” The Company Parties will use their respective best efforts to procure more than shareholders
holding at least 90% of the Company’s shares (on a fully diluted basis) to roll their equity in CayCo at the closing of the Business
Combination. In connection with the Business Combination, FST shall de-register its listing status at the Emerging Stock Market of Taipei
Exchange of Taiwan, and terminate its public reporting status with Financial Supervisory Commission of Taiwan.
Completion of the Business Combination is subject to respective approval
by the shareholders of FST and the shareholders of Chenghe. The closing of the Business Combination is also subject to various other customary
closing conditions. The Business Combination is expected to close in the second quarter of 2024.
A copy of the Definitive Agreement will be filed by Chenghe in a current
report on Form 8-K with the SEC and will be publicly available at www.sec.gov, which will contain further information in respect
of the Business Combination.

Caution About Forward-Looking Statements
This communication contains forward-looking statements
for purposes of the “safe harbor” provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any
statements other than statements of historical fact contained herein are forward-looking statements and are based on beliefs and assumptions
and on information currently available to SPAC, the Company and CayCo. No representations or warranties, express or implied are given
in, or in respect of, this communication. These forward-looking statements are based on SPAC’s, the Company’s and CayCo’s
expectations and beliefs concerning future events and involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially
from current expectations. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “may,” “will,”
“could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,”
“believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “continue,”
“ongoing,” “target,” “seek” or the negative or plural of these words, or other similar expressions
that are predictions or indicate future events or prospects, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words, but the
absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
These forward-looking statements and factors that
may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: the effect of the announcement
or pendency of the proposed Business Combination on the Company’s business relationships, operating results, current plans and operations
of CayCo and the Company; the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed Business Combination, which may be affected
by, among other things, competition, the ability of CayCo to grow and manage growth profitably; the possibility that SPAC, CayCo and/or
the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; estimates by SPAC, CayCo or the Company
of expenses and profitability; expectations with respect to future operating and financial performance and growth, including the timing
of the completion of the proposed Business Combination; plans, intentions or future operations of CayCo or the Company relating to attainment,
retention or renewal of any assessments, permits, licenses or other governmental notices or approvals, or the commencement or continuation
of any construction or operations of plants or facilities; CayCo’s ability to execute on their business plans and strategy; and
other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in filings with the SEC. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative
purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction
or a definitive statement of fact or probability.
Although each of SPAC, the Company and CayCo believes
that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this communication, each of SPAC, the Company and CayCo
cautions you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known and projections of the future, which
are inherently uncertain. These factors are difficult to predict accurately and may be beyond SPAC’s, the Company’s and CayCo’s
control. In addition, there will be risks and uncertainties described in the Registration Statement relating to the proposed Business
Combination, which is expected to be filed by CayCo with the SEC and other documents filed by SPAC or CayCo from time to time with the
SEC. These filings may identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ
materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements.
There may be additional risks that neither
SPAC, the Company or CayCo presently know or that SPAC, the Company and CayCo currently believe are immaterial that could also cause
actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In light of the significant uncertainties in these
forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by SPAC, the Company or CayCo,
their respective directors, officers or employees or any other person that SPAC, the Company and CayCo will achieve their objectives
and plans in any specified time frame, or at all. Forward-looking statements in this communication or elsewhere speak only as of the
date made. New uncertainties and risks arise from time to time, and it is impossible for SPAC, the Company or CayCo to predict these
events or how they may affect SPAC, the Company or CayCo. Except as required by law, neither SPAC nor the Company nor CayCo has any
duty to, and does not intend to, update or revise the forward-looking statements in this communication or elsewhere after the date
this communication is issued. In light of these risks and uncertainties, investors should keep in mind that results, events or
developments discussed in any forward-looking statement made in this communication may not occur. Uncertainties and risk factors
that could affect SPAC's, the Company’s and CayCo’s future performance and cause results to differ from the
forward-looking statements in this release include, but are not limited to: the occurrence of any event, change or other
circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the proposed Business Combination; the risk that the proposed Business
Combination or other business combination may not be completed by SPAC’s business combination deadline and the potential
failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted
against SPAC, the Company or CayCo, the combined company or others following the announcement of the proposed Business Combination;
the inability to complete the proposed Business Combination due to the failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of SPAC or to
satisfy other conditions to closing; changes to the
proposed structure of the proposed Business Combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or
regulations; the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards following the consummation of the proposed Business Combination;
the risk that the proposed Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of SPAC, the Company or CayCo as a result of
the announcement and consummation of the proposed Business Combination; the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the
proposed Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to
grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and retain its management and key employees; costs related
to the proposed Business Combination; changes in applicable laws or regulations; SPAC’s estimates of expenditures and
profitability and underlying assumptions with respect to shareholder redemptions and purchase price and other adjustments; the
impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; changes in laws and regulations that impact the Company; ability to enforce, protect and maintain
intellectual property rights; and other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and
“Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in SPAC’s final prospectus dated January 26, 2022 relating
to its initial public offering and in subsequent filings with the SEC, including the Registration Statement relating to the proposed
Business Combination expected to be filed by CayCo.
