Appraised Value If an Objecting Party objects in writing to the Initial Valuation within ten (10) days after its receipt of the Valuation Notice, the Objecting Party, within fourteen (14) days from the date of such written objection, shall engage an Independent Appraiser (the “First Appraiser”) to determine within thirty (30) days of such engagement the Fair Market Value of the Partnership Interests (the “First Appraised Value”). The cost of the First Appraiser shall be borne by the Objecting Party. If the First Appraised Value is at least eighty percent (80%) of the Initial Value and less than or equal to one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the Initial Value, then the Purchase Price shall be the average of the Initial Value and the First Appraised Value. If the First Appraised Value is less than eighty percent (80%) of the Initial Value or more than one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the Initial Value, then the Partnership and the Objecting Party shall, within fourteen (14) days from the date of the First Appraised Value, mutually agree on and engage a second Independent Appraiser (the “Final Appraiser”). The cost of the Final Appraiser shall be borne equally by the Partnership and the Objecting Party. The Final Appraiser shall determine within thirty (30) days after its engagement the Fair Market Value of the Partnership Interests, but if such determination is less than the lesser of the Initial Value and the First Appraised Value then the lesser of the Initial Value and the First Appraised value shall be the value or if such determination is greater than the greater of the Initial Value and the First Appraised Value then the greater of the Initial Value and the First Appraised Value shall be the value (the “Final Valuation”). The Purchase Price shall be equal to the Final Valuation and shall be final and binding upon the parties to this Agreement for purposes of the subject transaction.

Target Fair Market Value The Company agrees that the Target Business that it acquires must have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account at the time of signing the definitive agreement for the Business Combination with such Target Business (excluding taxes payable and the Deferred Underwriting Commissions). The fair market value of such business must be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company based upon standards generally accepted by the financial community, such as actual and potential sales, earnings, cash flow and book value. If the Board of Directors of the Company is not able to independently determine that the target business meets such fair market value requirement, the Company will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria. The Company is not required to obtain an opinion as to the fair market value if the Company’s Board of Directors independently determines that the Target Business does have sufficient fair market value.
