Prior to the closing of the Initial Business Combination, none of the funds held in the Trust Account may be released except in accordance with the Trust Agreement, Acquiror Organizational Documents and Acquiror’s final prospectus dated June 26, 2019 (the “Acquiror Prospectus”).

(c)          There are no conditions precedent directly or indirectly related to the funding of the full amount in the Trust Account (the “Trust Financing”) other than as expressly set forth in the Trust Agreement. Other than the Trust Agreement, there are no other Contracts, side letters, arrangements or understandings (whether written or unwritten, express or implied) (i) to the knowledge of Acquiror, that would entitle any Person (other than (x) stockholders of Acquiror holding Acquiror Common Stock sold in Acquiror’s initial public offering who shall have elected to redeem their Acquiror Common Stock pursuant to the Redemption Offer and (y) any underwriters in connection with Acquiror’s initial public offering which may be entitled to deferred underwriting discounts and commissions disclosed in the Acquiror Prospectus) to any portion of proceeds in the Trust Account or (ii) entered into by Acquiror or any Affiliate thereof directly or indirectly related to the Trust Financing. As of the Agreement Date, assuming the satisfaction of the conditions to Acquiror’s obligation to consummate the Transactions, Acquiror has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to the Trust Financing will not be satisfied or that, subject to the redemption of Acquiror Common Stock by Acquiror Stockholders, the full amount of the Trust Financing will not be available to Acquiror or an Affiliate thereof on the Closing Date.

(d)          As of the Agreement Date, there are no claims or proceedings pending with respect to the Trust Account.

5.08          Brokers. Except for the fees and expenses described on Schedule 5.08, no broker, finder, investment banker or any other Person is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other similar fee or commission from Acquiror or any of Acquiror’s Affiliates in connection with the Transactions.

(a)          Acquiror has filed in a timely manner all required registration statements, reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the SEC since June 26, 2019 (collectively, as they have been amended since the time of their filing and including all exhibits thereto, the “SEC Reports”). None of the SEC Reports, as of their respective dates (or if amended or superseded by a filing prior to the Agreement Date or the Closing Date, then on the date of such filing), contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The audited financial statements and unaudited interim financial statements (including, in each case, the notes and schedules thereto) included in the SEC Reports complied as to form in all material respects with the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated therein or in the notes thereto and except with respect to unaudited statements as permitted by Form 10-Q of the SEC) and fairly present (subject, in the case of the unaudited interim financial statements included therein, to normal year-end adjustments and the absence of complete footnotes) in all material respects the financial position of Acquiror as of the respective dates thereof and the results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods then ended.

(b)          Acquiror has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act). Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information relating to Acquiror is made known to Acquiror’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer, particularly during the periods in which the periodic reports required under the Exchange Act are being prepared. To Acquiror’s knowledge, such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting Acquiror’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer to material information required to be included in Acquiror’s periodic reports required under the Exchange Act.

(c)          Acquiror has established and maintained a system of internal controls. To Acquiror’s knowledge, such internal controls are sufficient to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of Acquiror’s financial reporting and the preparation of Acquiror’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

(d)          There are no outstanding loans or other extensions of credit made by Acquiror to any executive officer (as defined in Rule 3b-7 under the Exchange Act) or director of Acquiror. Acquiror has not taken any action prohibited by Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

(e)          Neither Acquiror (including any employee thereof) nor Acquiror’s independent auditors has identified or been made aware of (i) any significant deficiency or material weakness in the system of internal accounting controls utilized by Acquiror, (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves Acquiror’s management or other employees who have a role in the preparation of financial statements or the internal accounting controls utilized by Acquiror or (iii) any claim or allegation regarding any of the foregoing.

(b)          As of the Agreement Date, there is no liability, debt or obligation against Acquiror or its Subsidiaries, except for liabilities and obligations (i) reflected or reserved for on Acquiror’s consolidated balance sheet for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2020 or disclosed in the notes thereto (other than any such liabilities not reflected, reserved or disclosed as are not and would not be, in the aggregate, material to Acquiror and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), (ii) that have arisen since the date of Acquiror’s consolidated balance sheet for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2020 in the ordinary course of the operation of business of Acquiror and its Subsidiaries (other than any such liabilities as are not and would not be, in the aggregate, material to Acquiror and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), (iii) disclosed in the Acquiror Disclosure Schedules, (iv) incurred in connection with or contemplated by this Agreement and/or the Transactions or (v) incurred in connection with or contemplated by any agreement related to the Initial Business Combination.

2.2           Annual Meeting. If required by applicable law, a meeting of Stockholders for the election of Directors and other business shall be held annually at such date and time as may be designated by the Board from time to time.

2.3           Special Meetings. Unless otherwise prescribed by applicable law, special meetings of Stockholders may be called at any time by the Board and may not be called by any other person or persons. Business transacted at any special meeting of Stockholders shall be limited to the purpose(s) stated in the notice.

2.4           Record Date.

(A)           For the purpose of determining the Stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of Stockholders or any adjournment thereof, unless otherwise required by the Certificate of Incorporation or applicable law, the Board may fix a record date (the “Notice Record Date”), which record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date was adopted by the Board and shall not be more than 60 or less than 10 days before the date of such meeting. The Notice Record Date shall also be the record date for determining the Stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes such Notice Record Date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination (the “Voting Record Date”). For purposes of determining the Stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, unless otherwise required by the Certificate of Incorporation or applicable law, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date was adopted by the Board and shall not be more than 60 days or less than 10 days after the date on which the record date was fixed by the Board. For purposes of determining the Stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or take any other lawful action, unless otherwise required by the Certificate of Incorporation or applicable law, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date was adopted by the Board and shall not be more than 60 days or less than 10 days prior to such action.

(B)           If no such record date is fixed:

(i)            The record date for determining Stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting of Stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held;

(ii)           The record date for determining Stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting (unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation), when no prior action by the Board is required by applicable law, shall be the first day on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation in accordance with applicable law; and when prior action by the Board is required by applicable law, the record date for determining Stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the date on which the Board takes such prior action; and

(iii)          When a determination of Stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of Stockholders has been made as provided in this Section 2.4, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof, unless the Board fixes a new Voting Record Date for the adjourned meeting, in which case the Board shall also fix such Voting Record Date or a date earlier than such date as the new Notice Record Date for the adjourned meeting.

2.5           Notice of Meetings of Stockholders. Whenever under the provisions of applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-laws, Stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, notice shall be given stating the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communication, if any, by which Stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the Voting Record Date, if such date is different from the Notice Record Date, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by these By-laws or applicable law, notice of any meeting shall be given, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting, to each Stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting as of the Notice Record Date. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be given when deposited in the U.S. mail, with postage prepaid, directed to the Stockholder at his or her address as it appears on the records of the Corporation. An affidavit of the Secretary, an Assistant Secretary or the transfer agent of the Corporation that the notice required by this Section 2.5 has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. If a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. Any business that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called may be transacted at the adjourned meeting. If, however, the adjournment is for more than 30 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each Stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If, after the adjournment, a new Voting Record Date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board shall fix a new Notice Record Date in accordance with Section 2.4(B)(iii) (Record Date) hereof and shall give notice of such adjourned meeting to each Stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting as of the Notice Record Date.

2.6           Waivers of Notice. Whenever the giving of any notice to Stockholders is required by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-laws, a waiver thereof, given by the person entitled to said notice, whether before or after the event as to which such notice is required, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance by a Stockholder at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except when the Stockholder attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting has not been lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purposes of, any regular or special meeting of the Stockholders need be specified in any waiver of notice.

2.7           List of Stockholders. The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least 10 days before every meeting of Stockholders, a complete, alphabetical list of the Stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, and showing the address of each Stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each Stockholder. Such list may be examined by any Stockholder, at such Stockholder’s expense, for any purpose germane to the meeting, for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting, during ordinary business hours at the principal place of business of the Corporation or on a reasonably accessible electronic network as provided by applicable law. If the meeting is to be held at a place, the list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be inspected by any Stockholder who is present. If the meeting is held solely by means of remote communication, the list shall also be open for inspection as provided by applicable law. Except as provided by applicable law, the stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the Stockholders entitled to examine the list of Stockholders or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of Stockholders.

2.8           Quorum of Stockholders; Adjournment. Except as otherwise provided by these By-laws, at each meeting of Stockholders, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote at such meeting of Stockholders, shall constitute a quorum for transaction of any business at such meeting. In the absence of a quorum, the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock present in person or represented by proxy at any meeting of Stockholders, including an adjourned meeting, whether or not a quorum is present, may adjourn such meeting to another time and place. Shares of its own stock belonging to the Corporation or to another corporation, if a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of Directors of such other corporation is held, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation, shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation to vote stock, including but not limited to its own stock, held by it in a fiduciary capacity.

2.9           Voting; Proxies. At any meeting of Stockholders, all matters other than the election of directors, except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, these By-laws or any applicable law, shall be decided by the affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of shares of stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereon. At all meetings of Stockholders for the election of Directors, a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to elect the Directors. Each Stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of Stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such Stockholder by proxy but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only so long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A Stockholder may revoke any proxy that is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering to the Secretary a revocation of the proxy or by delivering a new proxy bearing a later date.

2.10         Voting Procedures and Inspectors at Meetings of Stockholders. The Board, in advance of any meeting of Stockholders, may appoint one or more inspectors, who may be employees of the Corporation, to attend the meeting and make a written report thereof. The Board may designate one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting, the person presiding at the meeting may appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspectors shall (A) ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, (B) determine the shares represented at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (C) count all votes and ballots, (D) determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors and (E) certify their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting and their count of all votes and ballots. The inspectors may appoint or retain other persons or entities to assist the inspectors in the performance of their duties. Unless otherwise provided by the Board, the date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the Stockholders will vote at a meeting shall be determined by the person presiding at the meeting and shall be announced at the meeting. No ballot, proxies, votes or any revocation thereof or change thereto, shall be accepted by the inspectors after the closing of the polls unless the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware upon application by a Stockholder shall determine otherwise. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at any meeting of Stockholders, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law. No person who is a candidate for office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election.

2.11         Conduct of Meetings; Adjournment. The Board may adopt such rules and procedures for the conduct of Stockholder meetings as it deems appropriate. At each meeting of Stockholders, the President or, in the absence of the President, the Chairman or, if there is no Chairman or the Chairman is absent, a Vice President and, in case more than one Vice President shall be present, that Vice President designated by the Board (or in the absence of any such designation, the most senior Vice President present), shall preside over the meeting. Except to the extent inconsistent with the rules and procedures as adopted by the Board, the person presiding over the meeting of Stockholders shall have the right and authority to convene, adjourn and reconvene the meeting from time to time, to prescribe such additional rules and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such person, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules and procedures, whether adopted by the Board or prescribed by the person presiding over the meeting, may include, (A) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting, (B) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present, (C) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to Stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the person presiding over the meeting shall determine, (D) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof and (E) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants. The person presiding over any meeting of Stockholders, in addition to making any other determinations that may be appropriate to the conduct of the meeting, may determine and declare to the persons present at the meeting that a matter or business was not properly brought before the meeting and if such presiding person should so determine, he or she shall so declare to the meeting and any such matter or business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted or considered. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board or the person presiding over the meeting, meetings of Stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure. The Secretary or, in his or her absence, one of the Assistant Secretaries, shall act as secretary of the meeting. If none of the officers above designated to act as the person presiding over the meeting or as secretary of the meeting shall be present, a person presiding over the meeting or a secretary of the meeting, as the case may be, shall be designated by the Board or, if the Board has not so acted, with respect to designation of a person to act as secretary of the meeting, designated by the person presiding over the meeting.

2.12         Order of Business

. The order of business at all meetings of Stockholders shall be as determined by the person presiding over the meeting.

2.13         Written Consent of Stockholders Without a Meeting. Any action to be taken at any annual or special meeting of Stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action to be so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered (by hand, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, attached to an email in form of a PDF or by fascimile) to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of Stockholders are recorded. Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each Stockholder who signs the consent, and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within 60 days of the earliest dated consent delivered in the manner required by this Section 2.13, written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take action are delivered to the Corporation pursuant to the foregoing. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall, to the extent required by applicable law, be given to those Stockholders who have not consented in writing, and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to the Corporation.

The enclosed Letter of Transmittal is being delivered in connection with the merger (the “Merger”) of [Magnet] Merger Sub, Inc.

Capitalized terms used and not defined in this letter have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement. As a result of the Merger, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of any party or the holders of any securities of the Acquiror or the Company, all Company Shares, which consist entirely of the undersigned’s Company Shares listed in Box B of the enclosed Letter of Transmittal, will automatically be converted into the right to receive as, if, and when payable pursuant to Article III of the Merger Agreement, the Merger Consideration (which shall comprise of, in the aggregate, [6,000,000] warrants with the terms set forth in the Warrant Agreement). The undersigned hereby surrenders the shares of Company Stock listed in Box B of the enclosed Letter of Transmittal for the purpose of receiving, as, if, and when payable pursuant to ARTICLE III of the Merger Agreement, the Merger Consideration in exchange therefor, in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement. No payment of Merger Consideration shall be made with respect to the Company Shares until your delivery of a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal in accordance with the Merger Agreement.

In the event the Merger Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with its terms and the Closing does not occur, the Company Shares shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and any such Company Shares shall be promptly returned to you without payment of any consideration therefor, and the enclosed Letter of Transmittal, this letter and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein shall be deemed null and void.

By signing the enclosed Letter of Transmittal, you hereby surrender to the Acquiror, for the benefit of Acquiror, the Company Shares described in Box B therein in exchange for the right to receive the Merger Consideration, into which such shares shall have been converted, in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

By signing the enclosed Letter of Transmittal, you hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint the Acquiror as your true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact with respect to the Company Shares listed in Box B of the enclosed Letter of Transmittal, with full power of substitution, among other things, to cause the Company Shares to be assigned, transferred and exchanged in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

By signing the enclosed Letter of Transmittal, you hereby represent and warrant that you have full power and authority to submit, sell, assign and transfer the Company Shares listed in Box B of the enclosed Letter of Transmittal and that you, immediately prior to the Effective Time, had good and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all Liens and not subject to any adverse claims.

By signing the enclosed Letter of Transmittal, you acknowledge that under U.S. federal income tax law, you may be subject to backup withholding tax on any cash paid to you in connection with the Merger, and that failure to provide a properly completed and signed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 or the appropriate version of IRS Form W-8, as applicable, may result in backup withholding on any applicable payments made to you, as described below under “General Instructions.” You should consult your own tax advisor to determine whether you are exempt from these backup withholding tax requirements and to determine the proper form to be used to avoid backup withholding tax.

By signing the enclosed Letter of Transmittal, you acknowledge that Acquiror, Merger Sub, the Company and/or the Surviving Company may withhold certain amounts from any amounts otherwise deliverable or payable to you under the Merger Agreement that may be required to be withheld under the Code or any other applicable Law subject to Section 3.04 of the Merger Agreement, and that such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes under the Merger Agreement and the enclosed Letter of Transmittal as paid to the person(s) in respect of which such withholding was made.

By signing the enclosed Letter of Transmittal, you hereby represent and warrant that the information provided for delivery of the Merger Consideration set forth in the enclosed Letter of Transmittal is true, correct and complete and, notwithstanding any limitations in the Merger Agreement, you hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Acquiror, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Company, and their respective affiliates, agents and representatives from any claims by any person, including you, as to the delivery pursuant to such delivery instructions, as applicable, of any consideration to be paid to you, or on your behalf, in respect of your Company Shares.

By signing the enclosed Letter of Transmittal, you agree that delivery of the Company Shares will be effected, and the risk of loss and title to such Company Shares will pass, only upon proper delivery thereof to the Acquiror. All questions as to validity, form and eligibility of the Company Shares hereunder, to the extent applicable, will be made by the reasonable determination of the Acquiror, which reasonable determination be final and binding on all parties. The Acquiror shall take reasonable action to inform you of any defects that it is unwilling to waive and may, but shall not be required to, take reasonable action to assist you to correct any such defects. You hereby covenant and agree that upon request, you will execute, complete and deliver any additional documents reasonably deemed by the Acquiror to be necessary to complete the proper conversion of your Company Shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and this letter and the enclosed Letter of Transmittal.

If there is a conflict between any provision of this letter and/or the enclosed Letter of Transmittal and a provision in the Merger Agreement, each of this letter and/or the enclosed Letter of Transmittal and the Merger Agreement is to be interpreted and construed, if possible, so as to avoid or minimize such conflict, but to the extent, and only to the extent, of such conflict, the provision of the Merger Agreement shall control unless specifically provided otherwise.

[You hereby acknowledge and agree that during the period commencing on the Closing Date and continuing to and including the date that is 180 days following the Closing Date (the “Lock-Up Period”), you shall not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of any shares, or any options or warrants to purchase any Acquiror Common Stock, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive Acquiror Common Stock, or any interest in any of the foregoing, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, are owned directly by you (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which you have beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) (collectively, the “covered shares”). The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude you from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the covered shares even if such covered shares would be disposed of by someone other than you. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any of the covered shares or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such covered shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may transfer or dispose of any of your shares of Acquiror Common Stock (i) by will or intestacy, (ii) as a bona fide gift or gifts, including to charitable organizations, (iii) to any trust, partnership, limited liability company or other entity for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned (for purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, current or former marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin), (iv) to any immediate family member or other dependent, (v) as a distribution to your limited partners, members or stockholders, (vi) to your Affiliated investment fund or another Affiliated entity you or your Affiliates control or manage, (vii) to a nominee or custodian of a person to whom a disposition or transfer would be permissible under clauses (i) through (vi) above, (viii) pursuant to an order or decree of a governmental authority, (ix) from an executive officer to Acquiror or its subsidiary or parent entities upon death, disability or termination of employment, in each case, of such executive officer, (x) pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction in each case made to all holders of the shares involving a change of control transaction (including negotiating and entering into an agreement providing for any such transaction), provided that in the event that such tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, your shares of Acquiror Common Stock shall remain subject to the terms and conditions of this paragraph, (xi) to Acquiror (a) pursuant to the exercise, in each case on a “cashless” or “net exercise” basis, of any option to purchase shares granted by Acquiror pursuant to any employee benefit plans or arrangements which are set to expire during the Lock-Up Period, where any shares you receive upon any such exercise will be subject to the terms of this paragraph, or (b) for the purpose of satisfying any withholding taxes (including estimated taxes) due as a result of the exercise of any option to purchase shares or the vesting of any restricted stock awards granted by Acquiror pursuant to employee benefit plans or arrangements which are set to expire or automatically vest during the Lock-Up Period, in each case on a “cashless” or “net exercise” basis, where any shares you receive upon any such exercise or vesting will be subject to the terms of this paragraph, or (xii) with the prior written consent of Acquiror; provided that, in the case of each transfer or distribution pursuant to clauses (ii) through (vii) above, (I) each donee, trustee, distributee or transferee, as the case may be, agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth in this paragraph; and (II) any such transfer or distribution shall not involve a disposition for value, other than with respect to any such transfer or distribution for which the transferor or distributor receives (x) equity interests of such transferee or (y) such transferee’s interests in the transferor. For the purpose of this paragraph, “Affiliate” shall mean, with respect to any specified person, any person that, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, such specified person, through one or more intermediaries or otherwise. You hereby agree and consent to the entry of stop transfer instructions with Acquiror’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the covered shares except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions and to the addition of a legend to your shares of Acquiror Common Stock describing the foregoing restrictions.

Effective from and after the Effective Time and in consideration of the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the Merger Agreement, you, on behalf of yourself and your past, present or future heirs, executors, administrators, predecessors-in-interest, successors, permitted assigns, equityholders, general or limited partners, Affiliates and Representatives (including, in each case, their past, present or future officers and directors) (each, a “Releasing Party”), hereby knowingly, voluntarily, irrevocably, unconditionally and forever acquits, releases and discharges, and covenants not to sue Acquiror, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Company, their respective predecessors, successors, parents, subsidiaries and other Affiliates and their respective past, present or future owners, managers, members, general or limited partners, shareholders, fiduciaries (in their official and individual capacities), and Representatives (in their capacities as such) (each, a “Released Party” and, collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all liabilities, penalties, fines, judgments (at equity or at law, including statutory and common) and other losses (including damages, asserted or unasserted, express or implied, foreseen or unforeseen, suspected or unsuspected, known or unknown, matured or unmatured, contingent or vested, liquidated or unliquidated, of any kind or nature or description whatsoever), in each case arising from any matter, cause or event occurring from the beginning of time to the Effective Time that a Releasing Party presently has, has ever had, or may hereafter have, in each case, to the extent arising out of his/her/its ownership of options or equity securities in the Company; provided, that nothing contained herein shall limit (a) any rights under the Merger Agreement or any Transaction Agreement (as defined in the Merger Agreement), (b) any rights to indemnification or to advancement or reimbursement of expenses (i) to which the Releasing Party may be entitled in his/her/its capacity as a current or former employee officer or director of the Company, or (c) in the case of any Releasing Party who is a current or former employee of the Company: (i) any rights with respect to compensation payable, accrued vacation and/or accrued bonuses earned prior to the Closing Date in the ordinary course of business and the reimbursement of reasonable business related expenses incurred prior to the Closing Date in the ordinary course of employment, which are reimbursable under the expense reimbursement policies of the Company and any agreement with the Company relating to employment or pursuant to which the Company is or may become obligated to make any retention, severance, termination, or similar payment; or (ii) any rights under any retirement or health and welfare benefit plan of the Company. This paragraph is for the benefit of the Released Parties and shall be enforceable by any of them directly against the Releasing Parties.

You hereby represent that you have not made any assignment or transfer of any claim or other matter covered by the two preceding paragraphs and have not filed any Action of any kind against any  Released Party relating to any matter covered by the two preceding paragraphs, and you hereby irrevocably covenant to refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any claim, or commencing, instituting, or causing to be commenced or instituted, any Action of any kind against any Released Party, based upon any matter released hereby.

THIS WARRANT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of October 12, 2020, is by and between Churchill Capital Corp II, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”).

Defined terms used and not defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement;

WHEREAS, in connection with the consummation of the Merger, all shares of common stock of Magnet shall be converted into the right to receive 6,000,000 warrants with the terms set forth in this Agreement (or 5,000,000 such warrants if the Subscription Agreement (as defined in the Merger Agreement) is terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the closing of the Merger), each such warrant entitling the holders thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) (subject to rounding to avoid fractional warrants), at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described herein and bearing the legend set forth in Exhibit A hereto (the “GK Warrants”);

WHEREAS, the Company desires the Warrant Agent to act on behalf of the Company, and the Warrant Agent is willing to so act, in connection with the issuance, registration, transfer, exchange and exercise of the GK Warrants;

WHEREAS, the Company desires to provide for the form and provisions of the GK Warrants, the terms upon which they shall be issued and exercised, and the respective rights, limitation of rights, and immunities of the Company, the Warrant Agent, and the holders of the GK Warrants; and

WHEREAS, all acts and things have been done and performed which are necessary to make the GK Warrants, when executed on behalf of the Company and countersigned by or on behalf of the Warrant Agent, as provided herein, the valid, binding and legal obligations of the Company, and to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.            Appointment of Warrant Agent. The Company hereby appoints the Warrant Agent to act as agent for the Company for the GK Warrants, and the Warrant Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the same in accordance with the express terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

2.            Warrants.

2.1          Form of GK Warrant. Each GK Warrant shall initially be issued in registered form only. GK Warrants may be represented by one or more physical definitive certificates or by book entry.

2.2          Effect of Countersignature. If a physical definitive certificate is issued, unless and until countersigned by the Warrant Agent, either by manual or facsimile signature, pursuant to this Agreement, a GK Warrant shall be invalid and of no effect and may not be exercised by the holder thereof.

2.3          Registration.

2.3.1            GK Warrant Register. The Warrant Agent shall maintain books (the “Warrant Register”), for the registration of original issuance and the registration of transfer of the GK Warrants. Upon the initial issuance of the GK Warrants in book-entry form, the Warrant Agent shall issue and register the GK Warrants in the names of the respective holders thereof in such denominations and otherwise in accordance with instructions delivered to the Warrant Agent by the Company.

The physical definitive certificates, if issued, shall be in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A, and shall be signed by, or bear the facsimile signature of, the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, the President or the Secretary or other principal officer of the Company. In the event the person whose facsimile signature has been placed upon any GK Warrant shall have ceased to serve in the capacity in which such person signed the GK Warrant before such GK Warrant is issued, it may be issued with the same effect as if he or she had not ceased to be such at the date of issuance.

2.3.2            Registered Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any GK Warrant, the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the person in whose name such GK Warrant is registered in the Warrant Register (the “Registered Holder”) as the absolute owner of such GK Warrant and of each GK Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing on any physical definitive certificate made by anyone other than the Company or the Warrant Agent), for the purpose of any exercise thereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

2.4          Fractional Warrants. The Company shall not issue fractional GK Warrants and the Company shall round down to the nearest whole number the number of GK Warrants to be issued to such holder.

3.            Terms and Exercise of GK Warrants.

3.1           GK Warrant Price. Each GK Warrant shall entitle the Registered Holder thereof, subject to the provisions of such GK Warrant and of this Agreement, to purchase from the Company the number of shares of Common Stock stated therein, at the price of $11.50 per share, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 4 hereof and in the last sentence of this Section 3.1. The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Agreement shall mean the price per share described in the prior sentence at which shares of Common Stock may be purchased at the time a GK Warrant is exercised. The Company in its sole discretion may lower the Warrant Price at any time prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below) for a period of not less than twenty (20) business days, provided, that the Company shall provide at least twenty (20) days prior written notice of such reduction to Registered Holders of the GK Warrants and, provided further that any such reduction shall be identical among all of the GK Warrants.

3.2           Duration of GK Warrants. A GK Warrant may be exercised only during the period (the “Exercise Period”) (A) commencing on the date that is thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement, and (B) terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the earlier to occur of (x) the date that is five (5) years after the date of this Agreement and (y) the liquidation of the Company in accordance with the Company’s certificate of incorporation, as amended from time to time (the “Expiration Date”); provided, however, that the exercise of any GK Warrant shall be subject to the satisfaction of any applicable conditions, as set forth in subsection 3.3.2 below, with respect to an effective registration statement. Each GK Warrant not exercised on or before the Expiration Date shall become null and void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date. The Company in its sole discretion may extend the duration of the GK Warrants by delaying the Expiration Date; provided that the Company shall provide at least twenty (20) days prior written notice of any such extension to Registered Holders of the GK Warrants, and, provided further that any such extension shall be identical in duration among all the GK Warrants.

3.3           Exercise of GK Warrants.

3.3.1         Payment. Subject to the provisions of the GK Warrant and this Agreement, a GK Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder thereof at any time prior to the Expiration Date by surrendering it at the office of the Warrant Agent or at the office of its successor as Warrant Agent, together with (i) an election to purchase form, duly executed, electing to exercise such GK Warrant; and (ii) payment in full of the Warrant Price for each full share of Common Stock as to which the GK Warrant is exercised and any and all applicable taxes due in connection with the exercise of the GK Warrant, the exchange of the GK Warrant for the shares of Common Stock and the issuance of such shares of Common Stock, as follows:

(a)            in lawful money of the United States, in good certified check or good bank draft payable to the order of the Warrant Agent or by wire;

(b)            so long as such GK Warrant is held by Albert UK Holdings 1 Limited (the “Initial Holder”) or a Designated Transferee, on a “cashless” basis by surrendering the GK Warrants for that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the GK Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “Fair Market Value”, as defined in this subsection 3.3.1(b), over the Warrant Price by (y) the Fair Market Value. Solely for purposes of this subsection 3.3.1(b), (A) the “Fair Market Value” shall mean the average closing price of the Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which notice of exercise of the Warrant is sent to the Warrant Agent and (B) a “Designated Transferee” shall mean any limited partners, members or stockholders, to the Initial Holder’s Affiliated investment fund or another Affiliated entity that the Initial Holder or the Initial Holder’s Affiliates control or manage and each of their respective limited partners, members or stockholders (or an affiliate thereof); or

(c)            as provided in Section 7.4 hereof.

The Warrant Agent shall forward funds received for warrant exercises in a given month by the 5th business day of the following month by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company.

3.3.2         Issuance of Shares of Common Stock on Exercise. As soon as practicable after the exercise of any GK Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection 3.3.1(a)), the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder of such GK Warrant a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it, and if such GK Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new book-entry position or countersigned GK Warrant, as applicable, for the number of shares of Common Stock as to which such GK Warrant shall not have been exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a GK Warrant and shall have no obligation to settle such GK Warrant exercise unless a (A) (a) registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the Common Stock underlying the GK Warrants is then effective and (b) a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company’s satisfying its obligations under Section 7.4 or (B) an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act is available. No GK Warrant shall be exercisable and the Company shall not be obligated to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise of a GK Warrant unless the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such GK Warrant exercise have been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt from registration or qualification under the securities laws of the state of residence of the Registered Holder of the GK Warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a GK Warrant, the holder of such GK Warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such GK Warrant and such GK Warrant may have no value and expire worthless. Subject to Section 4.6 of this Agreement, a Registered Holder of GK Warrants may exercise its GK Warrants only for a whole number of shares of Common Stock. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the GK Warrant exercise. The Company may require holders of GK Warrants to settle the GK Warrant on a “cashless basis” pursuant to Section 7.4.2. If, by reason of any exercise of GK Warrants on a “cashless basis,” the holder of any GK Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such GK Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round down to the nearest whole number, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to such holder.

3.3.3         Valid Issuance. All shares of Common Stock issued upon the proper exercise of a GK Warrant in conformity with this Agreement shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

3.3.4         Date of Issuance. Each person in whose name any book entry position or certificate, as applicable, for shares of Common Stock is issued shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock on the date on which the GK Warrant, or book entry position representing such GK Warrant, was surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate in the case of a certificated GK Warrant, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the share transfer books of the Company or book entry system of the Warrant Agent are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the share transfer books or book entry system are open.

3.3.5         Maximum Percentage. A holder of a GK Warrant may notify the Company in writing in the event it elects to be subject to the provisions contained in this subsection 3.3.5; however, no holder of a GK Warrant shall be subject to this subsection 3.3.5 unless he, she or it makes such election. If the election is made by a holder, the Warrant Agent shall not affect the exercise of the holder’s GK Warrant, and such holder shall not have the right to exercise such GK Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates) to the Warrant Agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the GK Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon (x) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of the GK Warrant beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates and (y) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For purposes of the GK Warrant, in determining the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, the holder may rely on the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (1) the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly report on Form 10-Q, current report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (3) any other notice by the Company or the Warrant Agent setting forth the number of Common Stock issued and outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written request of the holder of the GK Warrant, the Company shall, within two (2) business days, confirm orally and in writing to such holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of equity securities of the Company by the holder and its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the holder of a GK Warrant may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage applicable to such holder to any other percentage specified in such notice; provided, however, that any such increase shall not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company.

4.            Adjustments.

4.1          Stock Dividends.

4.1.1         Split-Ups. If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.6 below, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each GK Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock. A rights offering to holders of shares of Common Stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Common Stock at a price less than the “Fair Market Value” (as defined below) shall be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for the shares of Common Stock) multiplied by (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Common Stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the Fair Market Value. For purposes of this subsection 4.1.1, (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, in determining the price payable for shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) “Fair Market Value” means the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the shares of Common Stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

4.1.2         Extraordinary Dividends. If the Company, at any time while the GK Warrants are outstanding and unexpired, shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of the shares of Common Stock on account of such shares of Common Stock (or other shares of the Company’s capital stock into which the GK Warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described in subsection 4.1.1 above, (b) Ordinary Cash Dividends (as defined below) or (c) in connection with any distribution of its assets upon its liquidation (any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then the Warrant Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value (as determined by the Board, in good faith) of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Common Stock in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend. For purposes of this subsection 4.1.2, “Ordinary Cash Dividends” means any cash dividend or cash distribution which, when combined on a per share basis, with the per share amounts of all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the shares of Common Stock during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any of the events referred to in other subsections of this Section 4 and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the Warrant Price or to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each GK Warrant) does not exceed $0.50.

4.2           Aggregation of Shares. If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.6 hereof, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each GK Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

4.3           Adjustments in Warrant Price. Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the GK Warrants is adjusted, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the GK Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

4.4           Replacement of Securities upon Reorganization, Etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a change under Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 hereof or that solely affects the par value of such shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or conversion of the Company into another type of entity (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation (and is not a subsidiary of another entity whose stockholders did not own all or substantially all of the Common Stock of the Company in substantially the same proportions immediately before such transaction) and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the holders of the GK Warrants shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the GK Warrants and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the GK Warrants would have received if such holder had exercised his, her or its GK Warrant(s) immediately prior to such event (the “Alternative Issuance”); provided, however, that (i) if the holders of the shares of Common Stock were entitled to exercise a right of election as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other assets receivable upon such consolidation or merger, then the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets constituting the Alternative Issuance for which each GK Warrant shall become exercisable shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the kind and amount received per share by the holders of the shares of Common Stock in such consolidation or merger that affirmatively make such election, and (ii) if a tender, exchange or redemption offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of the shares of Common Stock under circumstances in which, upon completion of such tender or exchange offer, the maker thereof, together with members of any group (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act (or any successor rule)) of which such maker is a part, and together with any affiliate or associate of such maker (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act (or any successor rule)) and any members of any such group of which any such affiliate or associate is a part, own beneficially (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act (or any successor rule)) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the holder of a GK Warrant shall be entitled to receive as the Alternative Issuance, the highest amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would actually have been entitled as a stockholder if such GK Warrant holder had exercised the GK Warrant prior to the expiration of such tender or exchange offer, accepted such offer and all of the shares of Common Stock held by such holder had been purchased pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, subject to adjustments (from and after the consummation of such tender or exchange offer) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4; provided, further, that if less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of the shares of Common Stock in the applicable event is payable in the form of common stock in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the Registered Holder properly exercises the GK Warrant within thirty (30) days following the public disclosure of the consummation of such applicable event by the Company pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission, the Warrant Price shall be reduced by an amount (in dollars) equal to the difference, if positive, of (i) the Warrant Price in effect prior to such reduction minus (ii) (A) the Per Share Consideration (as defined below) minus (B) the Black-Scholes Warrant Value (as defined below) (which amount determined under this clause (ii) shall not be less than zero). The “Black-Scholes Warrant Value” means the value of a GK Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of the applicable event based on the Black-Scholes Warrant Model for a Capped American Call on Bloomberg Financial Markets (“Bloomberg”). For purposes of calculating such amount, (1) the price of each share of Common Stock shall be the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the effective date of the applicable event, (2) the assumed volatility shall be the 90 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg determined as of the trading day immediately prior to the day of the announcement of the applicable event, and (3) the assumed risk-free interest rate shall correspond to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of the GK Warrant. “Per Share Consideration” means (i) if the consideration paid to holders of the shares of Common Stock consists exclusively of cash, the amount of such cash per share of Common Stock, and (ii) in all other cases, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the effective date of the applicable event. If any reclassification or reorganization also results in a change in shares of Common Stock covered by subsection 4.1.1, then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to subsection 4.1.1 or Sections 4.2, 4.3 and this Section 4.4. The provisions of this Section 4.4 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers. In no event will the Warrant Price be reduced to less than the par value per share issuable upon exercise of the GK Warrant.

4.5           Notices of Changes in GK Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a GK Warrant, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Warrant Agent, which notice shall state the Warrant Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable at such price upon the exercise of a GK Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based; provided, however, that no adjustment to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a GK Warrant shall be required until cumulative adjustments amount to 1% or more of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a GK Warrant as last adjusted; provided, further, that any such adjustments that are not made are carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all such carried forward adjustments shall be made (i) in connection with any subsequent adjustment that (taken together with such carried forward adjustments) would result in a change of at least 1% in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a GK Warrant and (ii) on the exercise date of any GK Warrant. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4 4 in connection with which an adjustment is made to the Warrant Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a GK Warrant, the Company shall give written notice of the occurrence of such event to each holder of a GK Warrant, at the last address set forth for such holder in the Warrant Register, of the record date or the effective date of the event. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

4.6           No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of GK Warrants. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4, the holder of any GK Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such GK Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, upon such exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to such holder.

4.7           Form of GK Warrant. The form of GK Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 4, and GK Warrants issued after such adjustment may state the same Warrant Price and the same number of shares of Common Stock as is stated in the GK Warrants initially issued pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company may at any time in its sole discretion make any change in the form of GK Warrant that the Company may deem appropriate and that does not affect the substance thereof, and any GK Warrant thereafter issued or countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding GK Warrant or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

4.8           Other Events. In case any event shall occur affecting the Company as to which none of the provisions of the preceding subsections of this Section 4 are strictly applicable, but which would require an adjustment to the terms of the GK Warrants in order to (i) avoid an adverse impact on the GK Warrants and (ii) effectuate the intent and purpose of this Section 4, then, in each such case, the Company shall appoint a firm of independent public accountants, investment banking or other appraisal firm of recognized national standing, which shall give its opinion as to whether or not any adjustment to the rights represented by the GK Warrants is necessary to effectuate the intent and purpose of this Section 4 and, if they determine that an adjustment is necessary, the terms of such adjustment. The Company shall adjust the terms of the GK Warrants in a manner that is consistent with any adjustment recommended in such opinion.

5.            Transfer and Exchange of GK Warrants.

5.1           Registration of Transfer. The Warrant Agent shall register the transfer, from time to time, of any outstanding GK Warrant upon the Warrant Register, upon surrender of such GK Warrant for transfer, in the case of certificated warrants, properly endorsed with signatures properly guaranteed and accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer.. Upon any such transfer, a new GK Warrant representing an equal aggregate number of GK Warrants shall be issued and the old GK Warrant shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent. In the case of certificated warrants, the GK Warrants so cancelled shall be delivered by the Warrant Agent to the Company from time to time upon request.

5.2           Procedure for Surrender of Warrants. GK Warrants may be surrendered to the Warrant Agent, together with a written request for exchange or transfer and thereupon the Warrant Agent shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new GK Warrants as requested by the Registered Holder of the GK Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of GK Warrants; provided, however, that in the event that a GK Warrant surrendered for transfer bears a restrictive legend, the Warrant Agent shall not cancel such GK Warrant and issue new GK Warrants in exchange thereof until the Warrant Agent has received an opinion of counsel for the Company stating that such transfer may be made and indicating whether the new GK Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend.

5.3           Fractional Warrants. The Warrant Agent shall not be required to effect any registration of transfer or exchange which shall result in the issuance of a warrant certificate or book-entry position for a fraction of a GK Warrant.

5.4           Service Charges. No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of GK Warrants.

5.5           Warrant Execution and Countersignature. The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to countersign and to deliver, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the GK Warrants required to be issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5, and the Company, whenever required by the Warrant Agent, shall supply the Warrant Agent with GK Warrants duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose.

6.            RESERVED.

7.            Other Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of GK Warrants.

7.1           No Rights as Stockholder. A GK Warrant does not entitle the Registered Holder thereof to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.

7.2           Lost, Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants. If any GK Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company and the Warrant Agent may on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as they may in their discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated GK Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new GK Warrant of like denomination, tenor and date as the GK Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, and countersigned by the Warrant Agent. Any such new GK Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed GK Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone. Warrant Agent may, at its option, countersign replacement GK Warrants for mutilated certificates upon presentation thereof without such indemnity.

7.3           Reservation of Shares of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock that shall be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding GK Warrants issued pursuant to this Agreement.

7.4           Registration of Shares of Common Stock; Cashless Exercise at Company’s Option.

7.4.1         [Reserved].

7.4.2         Cashless Exercise at Company’s Option. If the shares of Common Stock are at the time of any exercise of a GK Warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act (or any successor statute) and there is no effective registration statement covering the shares issuable upon exercise of the GK Warrants at such time, the Company may, at its option, require holders of GK Warrants who exercise GK Warrants to exercise such GK Warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act (or any successor statute) or such other applicable exemption, for that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the GK Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “Fair Market Value” (as defined below) over the Warrant Price by (y) the Fair Market Value. Solely for purposes of this section 7.4.2, “Fair Market Value” shall mean the average closing price of the Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date that notice of exercise is sent to the Warrant Agent from the holder of such GK Warrants or its securities broker or intermediary, and if the Company does not so elect, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to register or qualify for sale the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the GK Warrant under the blue sky laws of the state of residence of the exercising GK Warrant holder to the extent an exemption is not available.

8.            Concerning the Warrant Agent and Other Matters.

8.1           Payment of Taxes. The Company shall from time to time promptly pay all taxes and charges that may be imposed upon the Company or the Warrant Agent in respect of the issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the GK Warrants, but the Company and the Warrant Agent shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in respect of the GK Warrants or such shares of Common Stock.

8.2           Resignation, Consolidation, or Merger of Warrant Agent.

8.2.1         Appointment of Successor Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent, or any successor to it hereafter appointed, may resign its duties and be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder after giving sixty (60) days notice in writing to the Company. If the office of the Warrant Agent becomes vacant by resignation or incapacity to act or otherwise, the Company shall appoint in writing a successor Warrant Agent in place of the Warrant Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of ninety (90) days after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the Warrant Agent or by the holder of a GK Warrant (who shall, with such notice, submit his GK Warrant for inspection by the Company), then the holder of any GK Warrant may apply to the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York for the appointment of a successor Warrant Agent at the Company’s cost. Any successor Warrant Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such court, shall be authorized under applicable laws to exercise the powers of a transfer agent and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. After appointment, any successor Warrant Agent shall be vested with all the authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties, and obligations of its predecessor Warrant Agent with like effect as if originally named as Warrant Agent hereunder, without any further act or deed; but if for any reason it becomes necessary or appropriate, the predecessor Warrant Agent shall execute and deliver, at the expense of the Company, an instrument transferring to such successor Warrant Agent all the authority, powers, and rights of such predecessor Warrant Agent hereunder; and upon request of any successor Warrant Agent the Company shall make, execute, acknowledge, and deliver any and all instruments in writing for more fully and effectually vesting in and confirming to such successor Warrant Agent all such authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties, and obligations.

8.2.2         Notice of Successor Warrant Agent. In the event a successor Warrant Agent shall be appointed, the Company shall give notice thereof to the predecessor Warrant Agent and the Company’s transfer agent for the shares of Common Stock not later than the effective date of any such appointment.

8.2.3         Merger or Consolidation of Warrant Agent. Any entity into which the Warrant Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated or any entity resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Warrant Agent shall be a party shall be the successor Warrant Agent under this Agreement without any further act.

8.3           Fees and Expenses of Warrant Agent.

8.3.1         Remuneration. The Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent reasonable remuneration for its services as such Warrant Agent hereunder and shall, pursuant to its obligations under this Agreement, reimburse the Warrant Agent upon demand for all expenditures that the Warrant Agent may reasonably incur in the execution of its duties hereunder.

8.3.2         Further Assurances. The Company agrees to perform, execute, acknowledge, and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged, and delivered all such further and other acts, instruments, and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Warrant Agent for the carrying out or performing of the provisions of this Agreement.

8.4           Liability of Warrant Agent.

8.4.1         Reliance on Company Statement. Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Warrant Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a statement signed by the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, the President or the Secretary or other principal officer of the Company and delivered to the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may rely upon such statement for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

8.4.2         Indemnity. The Warrant Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own, or its representatives’, gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or material breach of this Agreement. The Company agrees to indemnify the Warrant Agent and save it harmless against any and all liabilities, including judgments, costs and reasonable counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by the Warrant Agent in the execution of this Agreement, except as a result of the Warrant Agent’s, or its representatives’, gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or material breach of this Agreement.

8.4.3         Exclusions. The Warrant Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the validity of this Agreement or with respect to the validity or execution of any GK Warrant (except its countersignature thereof). The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for any breach by the Company of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any GK Warrant. The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible to make any adjustments required under the provisions of Section 4 hereof or responsible for the manner, method, or amount of any such adjustment or the ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any such adjustment; nor shall it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or reservation of any shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement or any GK Warrant or as to whether any shares of Common Stock shall, when issued, be valid and fully paid and non-assessable.

8.5           Acceptance of Agency. The Warrant Agent hereby accepts the agency established by this Agreement and agrees to perform the same upon the terms and conditions herein set forth and among other things, shall account promptly to the Company with respect to GK Warrants exercised and concurrently account for, and pay to the Company, all monies received by the Warrant Agent for the purchase of shares of Common Stock through the exercise of the GK Warrants.

8.6           Waiver. The Warrant Agent has no right of set-off or any other right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) in, or to any distribution of, the Trust Account (as defined in that certain Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2020, by and between the Company and the Warrant Agent as trustee thereunder) and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever. The Warrant Agent hereby waives any and all Claims against the Trust Account and any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account.

9.            Miscellaneous Provisions.

9.3           Applicable Law. The validity, interpretation, and performance of this Agreement and of the GK Warrants shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. The Company hereby agrees that any action, proceeding or claim against it arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the City of New York, County of New York, State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive. The Company hereby waives any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.

9.4           Compliance and Confidentiality. The Warrant Agent shall perform its duties under this Agreement in compliance with all applicable laws and keep confidential all information relating to this Agreement and, except as required by applicable law, shall not use such information for any purpose other than the performance of the Warrant Agent’s obligations under this Agreement.

9.5           Persons Having Rights under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to confer upon, or give to, any person or corporation other than the parties hereto and the Registered Holders of the GK Warrants any right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Agreement or of any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise, or agreement hereof. All covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises, and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and assigns and of the Registered Holders of the GK Warrants.

Incorporated Under the Laws of the State of Delaware

CUSIP [●]

Warrant Certificate

This Warrant Certificate certifies that, or registered assigns, is the registered holder of warrant(s) evidenced hereby (the “GK Warrants” and each, a “GK Warrant”) to purchase shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of Churchill Capital Corp II, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Each whole GK Warrant entitles the holder, upon exercise during the period set forth in the Warrant Agreement referred to below, to receive from the Company that number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as set forth below, at the exercise price (the “Warrant Price”) as determined pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, payable in lawful money (or through “cashless exercise” as provided for in the Warrant Agreement) of the United States of America upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate and payment of the Warrant Price at the office or agency of the Warrant Agent referred to below, subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Warrant Agreement. Defined terms used in this Warrant Certificate but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Warrant Agreement.

Each whole GK Warrant is initially exercisable for one fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of any GK Warrant. If, upon the exercise of GK Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share of Common Stock, the Company will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the GK Warrants is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events as set forth in the Warrant Agreement. The initial Warrant Price per share of Common Stock for any GK Warrant is equal to $11.50 per share. The Warrant Price is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events as set forth in the Warrant Agreement.

[Form of Warrant]

Subject to the conditions set forth in the Warrant Agreement, the GK Warrants may be exercised only during the Exercise Period and to the extent not exercised by the end of such Exercise Period, such GK Warrants shall become null and void. The GK Warrants may be redeemed, subject to certain conditions, as set forth in the Warrant Agreement.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Warrant Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof and such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

This Warrant Certificate shall not be valid unless countersigned by the Warrant Agent, as such term is used in the Warrant Agreement. This Warrant Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

[Form of Warrant Certificate]

[Reverse]

The GK Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate are part of a duly authorized issue of GK Warrants entitling the holder on exercise to receive shares of Common Stock and are issued or to be issued pursuant to a Warrant Agreement dated as of [●], 2020 (the “Warrant Agreement”), duly executed and delivered by the Company to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation, as warrant agent (or successor warrant agent) (collectively, the “Warrant Agent”), which Warrant Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference in and made a part of this instrument and is hereby referred to for a description of the rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Warrant Agent, the Company and the holders (the words “holders” or “holder” meaning the Registered Holders or Registered Holder, respectively) of the GK Warrants. A copy of the Warrant Agreement may be obtained by the holder hereof upon written request to the Company. Defined terms used in this Warrant Certificate but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Warrant Agreement.

GK Warrants may be exercised at any time during the Exercise Period set forth in the Warrant Agreement. The holder of GK Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may exercise them by surrendering this Warrant Certificate, with the form of election to purchase set forth hereon properly completed and executed, together with payment of the Warrant Price as specified in the Warrant Agreement (or through “cashless exercise” as provided for in the Warrant Agreement) at the designated office of the Warrant Agent. In the event that upon any exercise of GK Warrants evidenced hereby the number of GK Warrants exercised shall be less than the total number of GK Warrants evidenced hereby, there shall be issued to the holder hereof or his, her or its assignee, a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the number of GK Warrants not exercised.

Notwithstanding anything else in this Warrant Certificate or the Warrant Agreement, no GK Warrant may be exercised unless at the time of exercise (A) (i) a registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise is effective under the Securities Act and (ii) a prospectus thereunder relating to the shares of Common Stock is current or (B) an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act is available, except through “cashless exercise” as provided for in the Warrant Agreement.

The Warrant Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of certain events the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the GK Warrants set forth on the face hereof may, subject to certain conditions, be adjusted. If, upon exercise of a GK Warrant, the holder thereof would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share of Common Stock, the Company shall, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder of the GK Warrant.

Warrant Certificates, when surrendered at the designated office of the Warrant Agent by the Registered Holder thereof in person or by legal representative or attorney duly authorized in writing, may be exchanged, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, but without payment of any service charge, for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor evidencing in the aggregate a like number of GK Warrants.

Upon due presentation for registration of transfer of this Warrant Certificate at the office of the Warrant Agent a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of GK Warrants shall be issued to the transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant Certificate, subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, without charge except for any tax or other third-party charges imposed in connection therewith.

The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the Registered Holder(s) hereof as the absolute owner(s) of this Warrant Certificate (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon made by anyone), for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any distribution to the holder(s) hereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Neither the GK Warrants nor this Warrant Certificate entitles any holder hereof to any rights of a stockholder of the Company.
