Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
December 2023 Working Capital Loan
On December 28, 2023, Rigel Resource Acquisition Corp (the “Company”) entered into a Promissory Note (the “December 2023 Working Capital Loan”) with its sponsor, Rigel Resource Acquisition Holding LLC, a Cayman Islands limited
liability company (the “Sponsor”). Pursuant to the December 2023 Working Capital Loan, the Sponsor has agreed to loan to the Company up to $1,500,000 to be used for working
capital purposes. The loans will not bear any interest, and will be repayable by the
Company to the Sponsor upon the earlier of the date by which the Company must complete
an initial business combination pursuant to its amended and restated memorandum and
articles of association (as amended from time to time) and the consummation of the
Company’s initial business combination.
The foregoing description of the December 2023 Working Capital Loan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and
conditions of the December 2023 Working Capital Loan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Amended and Restated Extension Loans
On December 28, 2023, the Company amended and
restated: (i) that certain Convertible Promissory Note, dated as of May 8, 2023, by the Company in favor of the Sponsor in the
principal amount of up to $3,000,000 (the “May 2023 Extension
Loan”) and (ii) that certain Convertible Promissory Note, dated as of August 9, 2023, by the Company in favor of
the Sponsor in the principal amount of up to $4,200,000 (the “August 2023
Extension Loan” and together with the May 2023 Extension Loan, the “Amended
and Restated Extension Loans”) to add Orion Mine Finance GP III LP, a Cayman Islands limited partnership, as a payee
(together with the Sponsor, the “Payees”). The Amended and Restated
Extension Loans will be repayable by the Company to the Payees on a pro rata basis based on the amount of the principal balance each
Payee has advanced under the Amended and Restated Extension Loans. The Amended and Restated Extension Loans do not otherwise
materially modify the terms of the May 2023 Extension Loan and the August 2023 Extension Loan and are effective as of May 8, 2023 and August 9, 2023, respectively.
The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated Extension Loans does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and
conditions of the Amended and Restated Extension Loans, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and Exhibit 10.3 and incorporated
herein by reference.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance

of the December 2023 Working Capital Loan and the Amended and Restated Extension Loans may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined therein).
Any outstanding principal under the December 2023 Working Capital Loan or the Amended and Restated Extension Loans may be prepaid at any time by the Company, at its election and without penalty; provided,
however, that with respect to the Amended and Restated Extension Loans, the Payees shall have a right to first convert such principal balance, subject to the terms of Section 6 of the Amended and Restated Extension Loans, upon notice of such prepayment.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information disclosed under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated
by reference into this Item 3.02 to the extent required herein. The warrants that

thereof provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. Each warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase
one Class A ordinary share of the Company at an exercise price of $11.50 per share,
subject to certain adjustments. The warrants shall be identical to the warrants issued
to the Sponsor pursuant to the Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement, dated
as of November 4, 2021, by and among the Company, the Sponsor and certain other purchasers named therein,
in connection with the Company’s initial public offering that was consummated on November 9, 2021. Such warrants are exercisable 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, subject to certain conditions and exceptions. Such
warrants are identical to the warrants included in the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering, except that, so long as they are held by the Payees, Nathanael Abebe, certain of the Company’s directors or their permitted transferees: (1) they will not be redeemable by the
Company (except under certain circumstances as described in the Warrant Agreement
between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent,
dated November 4, 2021); (2) they (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of
these warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned

basis; and (4) they (including the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of these
warrants) are entitled to registration rights. Such warrants expire at 5:00 p.m.,
New York City time, five years after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a) hereof, Payee may, by written notice to Maker, declare this
Note to be due immediately and payable, whereupon the unpaid principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts payable thereunder,

expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary notwithstanding.
(b) Upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Sections 5(b) or 5(c), the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and all
other sums payable with regard to this Note, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable, in all cases without any

Maker agrees that any real estate that may be levied upon pursuant to a judgment obtained by virtue hereof, on any writ of execution
issued hereon, may be sold upon any such writ in whole or in part in any order desired by Payee.
8. Unconditional
Liability. Maker hereby waives all notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, or enforcement

any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.
12. Trust

any kind (“Claim”) in or to any distribution of or from the trust account established in which proceeds of Maker’s
initial public offering (the “IPO”) (including the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions) and proceeds
of the sale of the warrants issued to Payee in the private placement (the “Private Placement Warrants”) pursuant
to that certain Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 4, 2021, among Maker, Payee and the other
parties thereto, were or will be deposited, as described in greater detail in the registration statement on Form S-1 relating to
the IPO filed by Maker with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment
or satisfaction for any Claim against the trust account for any reason whatsoever.
13. Amendment;
Waiver. Any amendment hereto or waiver of any provision hereof may be made with, and only with, the written consent of Maker
and Payee.
14. Successors
and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer in Sections 15 and 16 below, the rights and obligations of Maker
and Payee hereunder shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of any party

without the required consent shall be void.
15. Transfer
of this Note. With respect to any sale or other disposition of this Note, Payee shall give written notice to Maker prior thereto,
describing briefly the manner thereof, together with (i) except for a Permitted Transfer (as defined below), in which case the
requirements in this clause (i) shall not apply, a written opinion (unless waived by Maker) reasonably satisfactory to Maker in
form and substance from counsel reasonably satisfactory to Maker to the effect that such sale or other distribution may be effected
without registration or qualification under any federal or state law then in effect and (ii) a written undertaking executed by
the desired transferee reasonably satisfactory to Maker in form and substance agreeing to be bound by the restrictions on transfer
contained herein. Upon receiving such written notice, reasonably satisfactory opinion (unless waived by Maker), or other evidence,
and such written acknowledgement, Maker, as promptly as practicable, shall notify Payee that Payee may sell or otherwise dispose
of this Note, all in accordance with the terms of the note delivered to Maker. If a determination has been made pursuant to this
Section 15 that the opinion of counsel for Payee, or other evidence, or the written acknowledgment from the desired transferee,
is not reasonably satisfactory to Maker, Maker shall so notify Payee promptly after such determination has been made. Each Note
thus transferred shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), unless in the opinion of counsel for Maker such legend
is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act. Maker may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer
agent in connection with such restrictions. Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Note shall be registered upon registration
on the books maintained for such purpose by or on behalf of Maker. Prior to presentation of this Note for registration of transfer,
Maker shall treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder of this Note for the purpose of receiving all payments of
principal hereon and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not this Note shall be overdue and Maker shall not be affected
by notice to the contrary. For purposes hereof “Permitted Transfer” shall have the same meaning as any transfer
that would be permitted for the Private Placement Warrants under the Letter Agreement, dated November 4, 2021, among Maker,
Payee and the other parties thereto.
16. Acknowledgment.
Payee is acquiring this Note for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for
resale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of applicable securities laws. Payee understands that the acquisition
of this Note involves substantial risk. Payee has experience as an investor in securities of companies and acknowledges that it
is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment in this Note, and has such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in this Note and protecting
its own interests in connection with this investment.

(c) Involuntary Bankruptcy, Etc. The entry of a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises
in respect of Maker in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency
or other similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee,
sequestrator (or similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property,
or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any
such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days.
6. Conversion
(a) Optional Conversion. At the option of each Payee, on the Maturity Date, any amounts outstanding under this Note advanced by such Payee (or any portion thereof), up to U.S.$3,000,000 in the aggregate, may be converted into whole warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares, par value U.S.$0.0001 per share (“Class A Ordinary Shares”), of Maker at a conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) per warrant (“Warrants”) equal to U.S.$1.00 per Warrant. If such Payee elects such conversion, the terms of such Warrants issued in connection with
such conversion shall be identical to the warrants issued to the Sponsor in the private placement (the “Private Placement Warrants”) pursuant to that certain Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 4, 2021, among Maker, Sponsor and the other parties thereto, including that each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at a price of U.S.$11.50 per share, subject to the same adjustments applicable to the Private Placement
Warrants. Before this Note may be converted under this Section 6(a) with respect to a Payee, such Payee shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed, at the office of Maker and shall state therein the amount of the unpaid principal of this Note to be converted
and the name or names in which the certificates for Warrants are to be issued (or
the book-entries to be made to reflect ownership of such Warrants with Maker’s transfer agent); provided that such amount is no greater than U.S.$3,000,000. The conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close
of business on the date of the surrender of this Note and the person or persons entitled
to receive the Warrants upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder
or holders of such Warrants as of such date. Each such newly-issued Warrant shall
include a restrictive legend that contemplates the same restrictions as the Private Placement Warrants. The Warrants and Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall constitute “Registrable Securities” pursuant to that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of November 4, 2021, between Maker and Sponsor.
(b) Remaining Principal. All accrued and unpaid principal of this Note that is not then converted into Warrants,
shall continue to remain outstanding and to be subject to the conditions of this Note.
(c) Fractional Warrants; Effect of Conversion. No fractional Warrants shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of
any fractional Warrants to a Payee upon conversion of this Note, Maker shall pay to such Payee an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the Conversion Price
by the fraction of a Warrant not issued pursuant to the previous sentence. Upon conversion of this Note in full and the payment of any amounts specified in this Section 6(c), this Note shall be cancelled and void without further action of Maker or Payees, and Maker shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note.
7. Remedies.
(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a) hereof, each Payee may, by written notice to Maker, declare this Note to be due immediately and
payable, whereupon the unpaid principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts
payable thereunder, shall become immediately due and payable without presentment,
demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived,
anything contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary
notwithstanding.
(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Sections 5(b) or 5(c), the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and all other sums payable with regard
to this Note, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable, in all cases
without any action on the part of any Payee.
8. Waivers. Maker and all endorsers and guarantors of, and sureties for, this Note waive presentment
for payment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and notice of protest with regard
to the Note, all errors, defects and imperfections in any proceedings instituted by
any Payee under the terms of this Note, and all benefits that might accrue to Maker by
virtue of any present or future laws exempting any property, real or personal, or
any part of the proceeds arising from any sale of any such property, from attachment,
levy or sale under execution, or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from
civil process, or extension of time for payment; and Maker agrees that any real estate
that may be levied upon pursuant to a judgment obtained by virtue hereof, on any writ
of execution issued hereon, may be sold upon any such writ in whole or in part in
any order desired by any Payee.
9. Unconditional Liability. Maker hereby waives all notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance,
default, or enforcement of the payment of this Note, and agrees that its liability
shall be unconditional, without regard to the liability of any other party, and shall
not be affected in any manner by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver
or modification granted or consented to by any Payee, and consents to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications
that may be granted by any Payee with respect to the payment or other provisions of this Note, and agrees that
additional makers, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties may become parties hereto without
notice to Maker or affecting Maker’s liability hereunder.
10. Notices. All notices, statements or other documents which are required or contemplated by this
Note shall be: (i) in writing and delivered personally or sent by first class registered
or certified mail, overnight courier service or facsimile or electronic transmission
to the address designated in writing, (ii) by facsimile to the number most recently
provided to such party or such other address or fax number as may be designated in
writing by such party or (iii) by electronic mail, to the electronic mail address
most recently provided to such party or such other electronic mail address as may
be designated in writing by such party. Any notice or other communication so transmitted
shall be deemed to have been given on the day of delivery, if delivered personally,
on the business day following receipt of written confirmation, if sent by facsimile
or electronic transmission, one (1) business day after delivery to an overnight courier
service or five (5) days after mailing if sent by mail.
11. Construction. THIS NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF NEW YORK.
12. Severability. Any provision contained in this Note which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such
prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
13. Trust Waiver. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Payee hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) in or to any distribution of or from the trust account established in which proceeds
of the IPO (including the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions) and proceeds of the sale of Private Placement Warrants were or will be deposited, as described in greater detail in the registration statement on Form S-1 relating to the IPO filed by Maker with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and hereby agrees not to seek recourse,
reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the trust account for
any reason whatsoever.
14. Amendment; Waiver. Any amendment hereto or waiver of any provision hereof may be made with, and only
with, the written consent of Maker and Payees.
15. Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer in Sections 16 and 17 below, the rights and obligations of Maker and each Payee hereunder shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs,
administrators and transferees of any party hereto (by operation of law or otherwise)
with the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and any attempted assignment without the required consent shall be void.
16. Transfer
of this Note or Securities Issuable on Conversion. With respect to any sale or other disposition by a Payee of this Note or
securities into which this Note may be converted, such Payee shall give written notice to Maker prior thereto, describing briefly
the manner thereof, together with (i) except for a Permitted Transfer (as defined below), in which case the requirements in this
clause (i) shall not apply, a written opinion (unless waived by Maker) reasonably satisfactory to Maker in form and substance from
counsel reasonably satisfactory to Maker to the effect that such sale or other distribution may be effected without registration or
qualification under any federal or state law then in effect and (ii) a written undertaking executed by the desired transferee
reasonably satisfactory to Maker in form and substance agreeing to be bound by the restrictions on transfer contained herein. Upon
receiving such written notice, reasonably satisfactory opinion (unless waived by Maker), or other evidence, and such written
acknowledgement, Maker, as promptly as practicable, shall notify such Payee that Payee may sell or otherwise dispose of this Note or
such securities, all in accordance with the terms of the note delivered to Maker. If a determination has been made pursuant to this
Section 16 that the opinion of counsel for such Payee, or other evidence, or the written acknowledgment from the desired
transferee, is not reasonably satisfactory to Maker, Maker shall so notify such Payee promptly after such determination has been
made. Each Note thus transferred shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure
compliance with the Securities Act, unless in the opinion of counsel for Maker such legend is not required in order to ensure
compliance with the Securities Act. Maker may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such
restrictions. Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Note shall be registered upon registration on the books maintained for
such purpose by or on behalf of Maker. Prior to presentation of this Note for registration of transfer, Maker shall treat the
registered holder hereof as the owner and holder of this Note for the purpose of receiving all payments of principal hereon and for
all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not this Note shall be overdue and Maker shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.
For purposes hereof “Permitted Transfer” shall have the same meaning as any transfer that would be permitted for
the Private Placement Warrants under the Letter Agreement, dated November 4, 2021, among Maker, Sponsor and the other parties
thereto.
17. Acknowledgment. Each Payee is acquiring this Note for investment for its own account, not as a nominee
or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution
thereof in violation of applicable securities laws. Each Payee understands that the acquisition of this Note involves substantial risk. Each Payee has experience as an investor in securities of companies and acknowledges that
it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment in this
Note, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that
it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in this Note and
protecting its own interests in connection with this investment.

RIGEL RESOURCE ACQUISITION CORP
AMENDED AND RESTATED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
Principal Amount: Up to U.S.$4,200,000 |
Dated as of December 28, 2023 |
(See Schedule A)
FOR VALUE RECEIVED and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, Rigel Resource Acquisition Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Maker”), promises
to pay to Rigel Resource Acquisition Holding LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), and Orion
Mine Finance GP III LP, a Cayman Islands limited partnership (each, a “Payee” and together, the “Payees”),
or order, the principal balance as set forth on Schedule A hereto in lawful money of the United States of America on a pro
rata basis based on the amount of the principal balance each Payee has advanced hereunder; which schedule shall be updated from time to
time by the parties hereto to reflect all advances and readvances outstanding under this Note; provided that at no time shall the
aggregate of all advances and readvances outstanding under this Note exceed U.S.$4,200,000. Any advance hereunder shall be made by a Payee
pursuant to Section 2 below and shall be set forth on Schedule A. All payments on this Note shall be made by check
or wire transfer of immediately available funds or as otherwise determined by Maker to such account as each Payee may from time to time
designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Note. This Note amends, restates and replaces in its entirety that
certain Convertible Promissory Note, dated as of August 9, 2023, by Maker in favor of the Sponsor in the principal amount of up to U.S.$4,200,000.
1. Principal. All unpaid principal under this Note shall be due and payable in full on the earlier
of: (i) the date by which Maker has to complete a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”) pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (as may be amended from time to time), and (ii) the effective date of a Business Combination (such earlier date of (i) and (ii), the “Maturity Date”), unless accelerated upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined below). Any outstanding principal under this Note may be prepaid at any time by Maker, at
its election and without penalty; provided, however, that each Payee shall have a right to first convert its pro rata share of the principal balance pursuant to Section 6 below upon notice of such prepayment. Under no circumstances shall any individual, including but not limited to any officer, director, employee or shareholder of Maker, be obligated personally for any obligations or liabilities of Maker hereunder.
2. Drawdowns. Payees shall collectively advance to Maker the lesser of (A) U.S.$0.03 for each then-outstanding Class A ordinary
share, par value U.S.$0.0001 per share (“Class A Ordinary Shares”), of Maker included as part of the units sold in
Maker’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) and (B) U.S.$350,000, beginning on August 9, 2023, for each month
(or pro rata portion thereof if less than a month) until the earlier of (i) the date of the extraordinary general meeting held in connection
with the shareholder vote to approve an initial Business Combination and (ii) August 9, 2024.
3. Interest. No interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note.
4. Application of Payments. All payments shall be applied first to payment in full of any costs incurred in the
collection of any sum due under this Note, including (without limitation) reasonable attorney’s fees, then to the payment in full of any late charges and finally to the reduction
of the unpaid principal balance of this Note.
5. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an event of default (“Event of Default”):
(a) Failure to Make Required Payments. Failure by Maker to pay the principal amount due pursuant to this Note on the Maturity Date.
(b) Voluntary Bankruptcy, Etc. The commencement by Maker of a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, rehabilitation or other similar law, or the consent by it to the appointment
of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator
(or other similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property,
or the making by it of any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the failure
of Maker generally to pay its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of corporate
action by Maker in furtherance of any of the foregoing.
(c) Involuntary Bankruptcy, Etc. The entry of a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises
in respect of Maker in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency
or other similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee,
sequestrator (or similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property,
or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any
such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days.
6. Conversion
(a) Optional Conversion. At the option of each Payee, at any time on or prior to the Maturity Date, any amounts outstanding
under this Note advanced by such Payee (or any portion thereof), up to U.S.$1,500,000 in the aggregate, may be converted into whole warrants
to purchase Class A Ordinary Shares of Maker at a conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) per warrant (“Warrants”)
equal to U.S.$1.00 per Warrant. If such Payee elects such conversion, the terms of such Warrants issued in connection with such conversion
shall be identical to the warrants issued to the Sponsor in the private placement (the “Private Placement Warrants”)
pursuant to that certain Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 4, 2021, among Maker, Sponsor and the other
parties thereto, including that each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at a price of U.S.$11.50
per share, subject to the same adjustments applicable to the Private Placement Warrants. Before this Note may be converted under this
Section 6(a) with respect to a Payee, such Payee shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed, at the office of Maker and shall state therein
the amount of the unpaid principal of this Note to be converted and the name or names in which the certificates for Warrants are to be
issued (or the book-entries to be made to reflect ownership of such Warrants with Maker’s transfer agent); provided that
such amount is no greater than U.S.$1,500,000. The conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business
on the date of the surrender of this Note and the person or persons entitled to receive the Warrants upon such conversion shall be treated
for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Warrants as of such date. Each such newly-issued Warrant shall include a restrictive
legend that contemplates the same restrictions as the Private Placement Warrants. The Warrants and Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants shall constitute “Registrable Securities” pursuant to that certain Registration Rights Agreement,
dated as of November 4, 2021, between Maker and Sponsor.
(b) Remaining Principal. All accrued and unpaid principal of this Note that is not then converted into Warrants,
shall continue to remain outstanding and to be subject to the conditions of this Note.
(c) Fractional Warrants; Effect of Conversion. No fractional Warrants shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of
any fractional Warrants to a Payee upon conversion of this Note, Maker shall pay to such Payee an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the Conversion Price
by the fraction of a Warrant not issued pursuant to the previous sentence. Upon conversion of this Note in full and the payment of any amounts specified in this Section 6(c), this Note shall be cancelled and void without further action of Maker or Payees, and Maker shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note.
7. Remedies.
(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a) hereof, each Payee may, by written notice to Maker, declare this Note to be due immediately and
payable, whereupon the unpaid principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts
payable thereunder, shall become immediately due and payable without presentment,
demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived,
anything contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary
notwithstanding.
(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Sections 5(b) or 5(c), the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and all other sums payable with regard
to this Note, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable, in all cases
without any action on the part of any Payee.
8. Waivers. Maker and all endorsers and guarantors of, and sureties for, this Note waive presentment
for payment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and notice of protest with regard
to the Note, all errors, defects and imperfections in any proceedings instituted by
any Payee under the terms of this Note, and all benefits that might accrue to Maker by
virtue of any present or future laws exempting any property, real or personal, or
any part of the proceeds arising from any sale of any such property, from attachment,
levy or sale under execution, or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from
civil process, or extension of time for payment; and Maker agrees that any real estate
that may be levied upon pursuant to a judgment obtained by virtue hereof, on any writ
of execution issued hereon, may be sold upon any such writ in whole or in part in
any order desired by any Payee.
9. Unconditional Liability. Maker hereby waives all notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance,
default, or enforcement of the payment of this Note, and agrees that its liability
shall be unconditional, without regard to the liability of any other party, and shall
not be affected in any manner by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver
or modification granted or consented to by any Payee, and consents to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications
that may be granted by any Payee with respect to the payment or other provisions of this Note, and agrees that
additional makers, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties may become parties hereto without
notice to Maker or affecting Maker’s liability hereunder.
10. Notices. All notices, statements or other documents which are required or contemplated by this
Note shall be: (i) in writing and delivered personally or sent by first class registered
or certified mail, overnight courier service or facsimile or electronic transmission
to the address designated in writing, (ii) by facsimile to the number most recently
provided to such party or such other address or fax number as may be designated in
writing by such party or (iii) by electronic mail, to the electronic mail address
most recently provided to such party or such other electronic mail address as may
be designated in writing by such party. Any notice or other communication so transmitted
shall be deemed to have been given on the day of delivery, if delivered personally,
on the business day following receipt of written confirmation, if sent by facsimile
or electronic transmission, one (1) business day after delivery to an overnight courier
service or five (5) days after mailing if sent by mail.
11. Construction. THIS NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF NEW YORK.
12. Severability. Any provision contained in this Note which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such
prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
13. Trust Waiver. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Payee hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) in or to any distribution of or from the trust account established in which proceeds
of the IPO (including the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions) and proceeds of the sale of Private Placement Warrants were or will be deposited, as described in greater detail in the registration statement on Form S-1 relating to the IPO filed by Maker with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and hereby agrees not to seek recourse,
reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the trust account for
any reason whatsoever.
14. Amendment; Waiver. Any amendment hereto or waiver of any provision hereof may be made with, and only
with, the written consent of Maker and Payees.
15. Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer in Sections 16 and 17 below, the rights and obligations of Maker and each Payee hereunder shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs,
administrators and transferees of any party hereto (by operation of law or otherwise)
with the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and any attempted assignment without the required consent shall be void.
16. Transfer
of this Note or Securities Issuable on Conversion. With respect to any sale or other disposition by a Payee of this Note or
securities into which this Note may be converted, such Payee shall give written notice to Maker prior thereto, describing briefly
the manner thereof, together with (i) except for a Permitted Transfer (as defined below), in which case the requirements in this
clause (i) shall not apply, a written opinion (unless waived by Maker) reasonably satisfactory to Maker in form and substance from
counsel reasonably satisfactory to Maker to the effect that such sale or other distribution may be effected without registration or
qualification under any federal or state law then in effect and (ii) a written undertaking executed by the desired transferee
reasonably satisfactory to Maker in form and substance agreeing to be bound by the restrictions on transfer contained herein. Upon
receiving such written notice, reasonably satisfactory opinion (unless waived by Maker), or other evidence, and such written
acknowledgement, Maker, as promptly as practicable, shall notify such Payee that Payee may sell or otherwise dispose of this Note or
such securities, all in accordance with the terms of the note delivered to Maker. If a determination has been made pursuant to this
Section 16 that the opinion of counsel for such Payee, or other evidence, or the written acknowledgment from the desired
transferee, is not reasonably satisfactory to Maker, Maker shall so notify such Payee promptly after such determination has been
made. Each Note thus transferred shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure
compliance with the Securities Act, unless in the opinion of counsel for Maker such legend is not required in order to ensure
compliance with the Securities Act. Maker may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such
restrictions. Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Note shall be registered upon registration on the books maintained for
such purpose by or on behalf of Maker. Prior to presentation of this Note for registration of transfer, Maker shall treat the
registered holder hereof as the owner and holder of this Note for the purpose of receiving all payments of principal hereon and for

thereto.
17. Acknowledgment. Each Payee is acquiring this Note for investment for its own account, not as a nominee
or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution
thereof in violation of applicable securities laws. Each Payee understands that the acquisition of this Note involves substantial risk. Each Payee has experience as an investor in securities of companies and acknowledges that
it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment in this
