EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THAT FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 7.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement.

Section 7.14 Waiver against Trust. Sponsor hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Sponsor nor any of its Affiliates do now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the trust account of SPAC containing the proceeds of its initial public offering and the concurrent private placement for the benefit of the public shareholders of SPAC (the “Trust Account”) or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between Buyer, SPAC or their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Sponsor or its Affiliates, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (collectively, the “Released Claims”). Sponsor on behalf of itself and its Affiliates hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that Sponsor or any of its Affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with Buyer, SPAC or their respective Affiliates). Sponsor agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by Buyer and its Affiliates to induce Buyer to enter into this Agreement, and Sponsor further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against Sponsor and each of its Affiliates under applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit the right of Sponsor or any of its equity holders to pursue a claim against SPAC for legal relief against assets of SPAC or its successor held outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other equitable relief pursuant to the terms hereof, (ii) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit any claims that Sponsor or any of its equity holders may have in the future against SPAC’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account of SPAC or its successor (including any funds that have been released to SPAC or its successor from the Trust Account and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with such funds) and (iii) nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the right, title, interest or claim of Sponsor, its equity holders or any of its Affiliates to any monies held in the Trust Account by virtue of its record or beneficial ownership of SPAC’s Class A Ordinary Shares (for the avoidance of doubt, other than the Class A Ordinary Shares, which were converted from Class B Ordinary Shares and which have no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account), pursuant to a validly exercised redemption right with respect to any such Class A Ordinary Shares.

Section 7.15 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all related exhibits and schedules, constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter.
