Each of FEAC and Can Merger Sub is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing (or the equivalent thereof, if applicable, in each case, with respect to the jurisdictions that recognize the concept of good standing or any equivalent thereof) under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation. Each of FEAC and Can Merger Sub has the requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its businesses as presently conducted, except where the failure to have such power or authority would not have a FEAC Material Adverse Effect or prevent, materially delay or materially impair the ability of FEAC or Can Merger Sub to timely consummate the Transactions.

(b)

True, complete and correct copies of the Governing Documents of each of FEAC and Can Merger Sub and the FEAC Registration Rights Agreement have been made available to the Company (to the extent such information or document is not publicly available prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on the date that is one (1) Business Day prior to the date of this Agreement in the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval (▇▇▇▇▇) database of the SEC), in each case, as amended and in effect as of the date of this Agreement.

(d)

Can Merger Sub was incorporated solely for purposes of entering into the Transactions and, since the date of its incorporation, Can Merger Sub has not owned any assets, carried on any business, conducted any operations or incurred any liabilities or obligations or has hired any employee or independent contractor, other than the execution of this Agreement and any Ancillary Documents to which it is a party, the performance of its obligations hereunder and matters ancillary thereto.

There are no separate agreements, side letters or other agreements or understandings (whether written or unwritten, express or implied) that would cause the description of the Trust Agreement in the FEAC SEC Reports or the Additional FEAC SEC Reports to be inaccurate in any material respect or, to FEAC’s knowledge, that would entitle any Person to any portion of the funds in the Trust Account (other than (i) in respect of deferred underwriting commissions or Taxes, (ii) the Pre-Closing FEAC Holders who shall have elected to redeem their FEAC Class A Shares pursuant to the Governing Documents of FEAC or (iii) if FEAC fails to complete a business combination within the allotted time period set forth in the Governing Documents of FEAC and liquidates the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the Trust Agreement, FEAC (in limited amounts to permit FEAC to pay the expenses of the Trust Account’s liquidation, dissolution and winding up of FEAC) and then the Pre-Closing FEAC Holders). Prior to the Closing, none of the funds held in the Trust Account are permitted to be released, except in the circumstances described in the Governing Documents of FEAC and the Trust Agreement. FEAC has performed all material obligations required to be performed by it to date under, and is not in material default or delinquent in performance or any other respect (claimed or actual) in connection with the Trust Agreement, and, to the knowledge of FEAC, no event has occurred which, with due notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a material default thereunder.

As of the date hereof, assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein or in any Ancillary Document and the compliance by the Company with its obligations hereunder, FEAC has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to the use of funds in the Trust Account will not be satisfied or funds available in the Trust Account will not be available to FEAC on the Closing Date.

5.5	Tax Matters.

(a)

105

Treatment”), and each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, file all U.S. Tax Returns consistent with, and take no position inconsistent with (whether in U.S. audits, U.S. Tax Returns or otherwise with respect to U.S. federal income tax matters), the treatment described in this Section 5.5(a)(i) unless required to do so pursuant to a “determination” that is final within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that (i) it has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal and Tax advice with respect to the Transactions, and (ii) none of the Company, FEAC, Newco or any other Person shall have any liability or obligation to any Person if any Transaction is determined not to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment or otherwise not to qualify as a nontaxable Transaction to FEAC’s or Company’s shareholders or securityholders for any tax purposes.

(ii)

The Parties hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a). From the date hereof through the Closing, and following the Closing, the Parties shall not, and shall not permit or cause their respective Affiliates to, take any action, or knowingly fail to take any action, which action or failure to act would reasonably be expected to prevent or impede the Transactions from qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment.

(b)

If, in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement, the SEC requests or requires that tax opinions be prepared and submitted with respect to the Tax consequences of (i) the FEAC Reorganization, or the redemption of FEAC Shares for the Pre-Closing FEAC Holders or FEAC, then FEAC will use reasonable best efforts to cause ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ London LLP or other counsel to FEAC (“FEAC Tax Counsel”) to deliver such tax opinions or (ii) the Amalgamation, or the ownership of Newco Shares or Newco Warrants following the Amalgamation, for the Company Shareholders, Newco Shareholders or the Company, then the Company will use reasonable best efforts to cause ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP or other counsel to the Company (“Company Tax Counsel”) to deliver such tax opinions and, in either case, each Party will use reasonable best efforts to execute and deliver to FEAC Tax Counsel and Company Tax Counsel customary Tax representation letters reasonably satisfactory to FEAC Tax Counsel or Company Tax Counsel, as applicable, at such time or times as may be reasonably requested by FEAC Tax Counsel or Company Tax Counsel, as applicable, in connection with the delivery of any such tax opinions with respect to the Tax treatment of the Transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, a tax opinion regarding the Intended Tax Treatment is not a condition to Closing.

106

(c)

For Canadian income tax purposes, the Parties intend that (1) the Amalgamation qualify as an amalgamation within the meaning of section 87 of the Tax Act and be governed by subsections 87(1), 87(2), 87(4), 87(5) and 87(9) of the Tax Act, (2) subsection 7(1.4) of the Tax Act apply to the exchange of certain employee options as described in the Plan of Arrangement, and (3) an election pursuant to subsection 85(1) of the Tax Act will be filed jointly by Newco and the Company in respect of the transfer from Newco to the Company of Note 3 in consideration for the issuance of additional shares from treasury at an elected amount to be determined at the Company’s discretion (but in all cases within the limits set out in the Tax Act).

In the event that Newco determines after the Closing that Newco is a passive foreign investment company for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, Newco shall provide upon request from any Newco shareholder, sufficient information to allow such requesting shareholders to make a timely “qualified electing fund” election and to comply with the requirements of such election within the meaning of Section 1295 of the Code with respect to Newco.

(e)

Newco shall retain (or cause the Group Company to retain) all books and records with respect to Tax matters of the Group Company for Pre-Closing Periods for at least seven (7) years following the Closing Date and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into by or with respect to the Group Company with any Tax Authority.

(f)

The Parties acknowledge that any shareholder of FEAC that is treated as owning five percent (5%) or more of the FEAC Shares, as determined under Section 367 of the Code and Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, may enter into a gain recognition agreement in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(a)-8. Upon a written request of any such shareholder following the Closing Date, Newco shall use reasonable best efforts to furnish to such shareholder such information as the shareholder may reasonably request in connection with such shareholder’s (i) preparation of a gain recognition agreement, and (ii) determination as to whether there has been a gain “triggering event” under the gain recognition agreement, in each case, at the sole cost and expense of the requesting shareholder. For the avoidance of doubt, none of FEAC, Newco, the Company, or any Group Company shall be required to operate in a manner that avoids or mitigates the likelihood of a triggering event.

(g)

Cayman Merger Sub will elect to be disregarded as an entity separate from Newco for U.S. federal income tax purposes effective as of the day of its formation and will not subsequently change such classification.

8.9

Severability.

130

8.14

Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES EACH HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY PROCEEDING (I) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR UNDER ANY ANCILLARY DOCUMENT OR (II) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ANCILLARY DOCUMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO OR ANY FINANCING IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY, IN EACH CASE, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY, OR OTHERWISE.

EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES

131

THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) EACH SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) EACH SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) EACH SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.14.

8.15

Submission to Jurisdiction. Except as it relates to the Arrangement and the Plan of Arrangement, each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or, if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction, any other state or federal court located in the State of Delaware), for the purposes of any Proceeding (a) arising under this Agreement or under any Ancillary Document or (b) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the Parties in respect of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any of the Transactions, and irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such Proceeding in any such court, and further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such Proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Proceeding against such Party (i) arising under this Agreement or under any Ancillary Document or (ii) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the Parties in respect of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any of the Transactions, (A) any claim that such Party is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts as described in this Section 8.15 for any reason, (B) that such Party or such Party’s property is exempt or immune from the jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (C) that (x) the Proceeding in any such court is brought against such Party in an inconvenient forum, (y) the venue of such Proceeding against such Party is improper or (z) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced against such Party in or by such courts. Each Party agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail or internationally recognized courier service to such party’s respective address set forth in Section 8.4 shall be effective service of process for any such Proceeding.

8.16

Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies provided herein will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their respective obligations under the provisions of this

132

Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the Transactions) in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages and this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.

8.17

Trust Account Waiver. Reference is made to the final prospectus of FEAC, filed with the SEC (File No. 333-261308) on December 9, 2021 (the “Prospectus”). Each Party other than FEAC (each an “Other Party” and, collectively, the “Other Parties”) acknowledges and agrees and understands that FEAC has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of FEAC’s public shareholders (including overallotment shares acquired by FEAC’s underwriters, the “Public Shareholders”), and FEAC may disburse monies from the Trust Account only in the express circumstances described in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of FEAC entering into this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Other Party hereby agrees that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Other Party, does now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between FEAC, on the one hand, and, such Other Party, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Trust Account Released Claims”). Each Other Party, hereby irrevocably waives any Trust Account Released Claims that it or any of its Representatives may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, or Contracts with FEAC or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of any agreement with FEAC or its Affiliates). The foregoing notwithstanding, (a) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit the Company’s or Newco’s right to pursue a claim against FEAC pursuant to this Agreement for legal relief against monies or other assets of FEAC held outside the Trust Account or for specific performance or other equitable relief in connection with the Transactions, or for fraud in the making of the representations and warranties in Article 4; and (b) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit any claims that the Company or Newco may have in the future pursuant to this Agreement against FEAC’s assets or funds that are not held in (or are released from) the Trust Account.

expected to have a material adverse effect on the legal authority and ability of Subscriber to enter into and timely perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement (a “Subscriber Material Adverse Effect”) or (iii) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of Subscriber or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which Subscriber or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which Subscriber or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of Subscriber or any of its subsidiaries is subject, which would reasonably be expected to have a Subscriber Material Adverse Effect.

2.1.4. Subscriber (i) (a) is a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or an institutional “accredited investor” (within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3), (7), (8), (9), (12) or (13) of Regulation D under the Securities Act), (b) is not an entity formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Subscribed Shares, unless such newly formed entity is an entity in which all of the investors are institutional accredited investors, and under the Securities Act), (b) is an Institutional Account as defined in FINRA Rule 4512(c) and (c) is a sophisticated institutional investor, experienced in investing in transactions of the type contemplated by this Subscription Agreement and capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities, including its participation in the Subscription, in each case, satisfying the applicable requirements set forth on Schedule I, (ii) has exercised independent judgment in evaluating its participation in the purchase of the Subscribed Shares, (iii) is acquiring the Subscribed Shares only for its own account and not for the account of others, or if Subscriber is subscribing for the Subscribed Shares as a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, each owner of such account is a qualified institutional buyer, and Subscriber has full investment discretion with respect to each such account, and the full power and authority to make the acknowledgements, representations, warranties and agreements herein on behalf of each owner of each such account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to any distribution of the Subscribed Shares in any manner that would violate the securities laws of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction and (iv) is not acquiring the Subscribed Shares with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any securities laws of the United States or any other jurisdiction (and shall provide the requested information on Schedule I following the signature page hereto).

Subscriber acknowledges that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the Subscribed Shares, including those set forth in the investor presentation provided by FEAC (as amended and supplemented through the date hereof) and in the SEC Documents (as defined below). Subscriber is able to fend for itself in the transactions contemplated herein, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Subscribed Shares, and has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as Subscriber has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision.

2.1.5. Subscriber understands that the Subscribed Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act and that the Subscribed Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction.

Subscriber acknowledges that the Subscribed Shares will not be immediately eligible for offer, resale, transfer, pledge or disposition pursuant to Rule 144 until at least one year from the filing by Newco of the “Form 10 information” after the Closing Date and that the provisions of Rule 144(i) will generally apply to the Subscribed Shares. Subscriber understands and agrees that the Subscribed Shares will be subject to the foregoing restrictions and, as a result, Subscriber may not be able to readily resell the Subscribed Shares and may be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Subscribed Shares for an indefinite period of time. Subscriber understands that it has been advised to consult independent legal counsel prior to making any offer, resale, pledge or transfer of any of the Subscribed Shares. Subscriber has determined based on its own independent review and such professional advice as it deems appropriate that the Subscribed Shares are a suitable investment for Subscriber, notwithstanding the substantial risks inherent in investing in or holding the Subscribed Shares, and that Subscriber is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of Subscriber’s investment. Subscriber acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.

2.1.6. Subscriber understands and agrees that, pursuant to the Assumption, Subscriber will purchase the Subscribed Shares directly from Newco. Subscriber further acknowledges that there have been no representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made to Subscriber by FEAC, Newco, enGene, the Placement Agents or any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives, expressly or by implication, other than, in the case of FEAC and Newco only, those representations, warranties, covenants and agreements expressly set forth in this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber understands that certain financial information (whether historical or in the form of financial forecasts

or projections) of FEAC, Newco and enGene have been prepared and reviewed solely by FEAC, Newco, enGene and their respective officers, directors and employees, as applicable, and have not been reviewed by the Placement Agents or any outside party or, except for the financial statements as expressly set forth in the Registration Statement (as defined below), certified or audited by an independent third-party auditor or audit firm.

2.1.7. Subscriber does not have, as of the date hereof, and during the 30-day period immediately prior to the date hereof such Subscriber has not, and during the period beginning as of the date hereof until the Closing Date or the earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement such Subscriber will not have, entered into, any “put equivalent position” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or short sale positions with respect to the securities of FEAC.

2.1.9. If Subscriber is or is acting on behalf of a Plan, Subscriber represents and warrants that none of FEAC, Newco, enGene or any of their respective affiliates (the “Transaction Parties”) has acted as the Plan’s fiduciary, or has been relied on for advice, with respect to its decision to acquire and hold the Subscribed Shares, and none of the Transaction Parties shall at any time be relied upon as the Plan’s fiduciary with respect to any decision to acquire, continue to hold or transfer the Subscribed Shares.

2.1.10. Subscriber acknowledges that no disclosure or offering document has been prepared or reviewed by SVB Securities LLC and UBS Securities LLC (collectively, in their capacity as placement agents, the “Placement Agents”) or any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing in connection with the offer and sale of the Subscribed Shares. In making its decision to purchase the Subscribed Shares, Subscriber represents that it has relied solely upon independent investigation made by Subscriber and the representations, warranties and covenants of FEAC and Newco contained in this Subscription Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Subscriber has not relied on any statements or other information provided by

Subscriber represents and warrants it is relying exclusively on its own investment analysis and due diligence (including professional advice it deems appropriate) with respect to the Subscription, the Transactions, the Subscribed Shares and the business, condition (financial and otherwise), management, operations, properties and prospects of FEAC, Newco and enGene including but not limited to all business, legal, regulatory, accounting, credit and tax matters. Subscriber further acknowledges that Subscriber has not relied upon the Placement Agents in connection with Subscriber’s due diligence review of the offering of the Subscribed Shares and of FEAC, Newco and enGene.

2.1.11. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that (a) it has been informed that each of the Placement Agents is acting solely as placement agent in connection with the Subscription and is not acting as an underwriter or in any other capacity in connection with the Subscription and is not and shall not be construed as a fiduciary for Subscriber, FEAC, Newco, enGene or any other person or entity in connection with the Transactions, (b) the Placement Agents have not made and will not make any representation or warranty, whether express or implied, of any kind or character and have not provided any advice or recommendation in connection with the Subscription and the Transactions, in each case, to Subscriber and such advice or recommendation is not necessary or desired (c) the Placement Agents will have no responsibility to Subscriber with respect to (i) any representations, warranties or agreements made by any person or entity under or in connection with the Subscription and the Transactions or any of the documents furnished pursuant thereto or in connection therewith, or the execution, legality, validity or enforceability (with respect to any person) or any thereof, or (ii) the business, condition (financial and otherwise), management, operations, properties or prospects of, or any other matter concerning, FEAC, Newco, enGene, the Subscription or the Transactions, (d) the Placement Agents, their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of the Placement Agents or their respective affiliates, shall have no liability or obligation (including without limitation, for or with respect to any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred by Subscriber, FEAC, Newco, enGene or any other person or entity) to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, to Subscriber, FEAC, Newco, enGene or any other person or entity or to any person claiming through each of them, in respect of the Subscription and the Transactions and (e) the Placement Agents and their respective

affiliates and any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of the Placement Agents and their respective affiliates have made no independent investigation with respect to FEAC, Newco, enGene, the Subscribed Shares, the Subscription or the Transactions or the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of any information supplied to the Placement Agents by FEAC, Newco or enGene. Subscriber further acknowledges that SVB Securities LLC and UBS Securities LLC are acting as capital markets and financial advisors to FEAC in connection with the Transactions. Subscriber waives and releases any claim that it or its affiliates may have against any Placement Agent and its affiliates and any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of that Placement Agent and its affiliates with respect to any actual or perceived conflict of interest that may arise from such Placement Agent’s engagements as indicated in the immediately preceding sentence, in the context of such Placement Agent’s engagement by FEAC as FEAC’s placement agent in connection with the Subscription. FEAC and Newco are solely responsible for paying any fees or other commission owed to the Placement Agents in connection with the Subscription or the Transactions.

2.1.12. Subscriber became aware of this offering of the Subscribed Shares solely by means of direct contact between Subscriber or one of its representatives, on the one hand, and FEAC, one of its representatives or the Placement Agents (collectively, the “Issuer Parties”) on behalf of FEAC, as the case may be, on the other hand, as a result of a pre-existing relationship between the Subscriber and one or more of the Issuer Parties. Subscriber did not become aware of this offering of the Subscribed Shares, nor were the Subscribed Shares offered to the Subscriber, by any general solicitation or general advertising, and none of FEAC, Newco, the Placement Agents or their respective representatives or any person acting on behalf of any of them acted as investment advisor, broker or dealer to the Subscriber. The Subscriber acknowledges that FEAC represents and warrants that the Subscribed Shares (i) were not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising, including methods described in section 502(c) of Regulation D under and (ii) are not being offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws.

result of the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement or the Business Combination Agreement, and that neither FEAC, Newco or enGene, nor any of their respective agents or affiliates or the Placement Agents, have provided any tax advice or any other representation or guarantee, whether written or oral, regarding the tax consequences of the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

2.1.14. Subscriber understands and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Subscribed Shares or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of an investment in the Subscribed Shares and the foregoing authorities have not confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of any representation (and any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense).

The representations, warranties and undertakings in this Section 2.1.15 will not apply to any party hereto to which Council Regulation (EC) No. 2271/96, as amended (the “Blocking Regulation”) applies, if and to the extent that such representation, warranty or undertaking is or would be invalid or unenforceable by reason of breach of any provision of the Blocking Regulation (or any law or regulation implementing such Blocking Regulation or any similar measure in any member state of the European Union or the United Kingdom). If Subscriber is a financial institution subject to the Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. Section 5311 et seq.), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), Subscriber represents that it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. Subscriber also represents that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with sanctions programs administered by OFAC, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Canada, HMT, any European Union member state and the United Kingdom, including for the screening of its investors against the Sanctions Lists and the OFAC sanctions programs. Subscriber further represents and warrants that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by Subscriber and used to purchase the Subscribed Shares were legally derived.

2.1.16.

2.1.17. On each date the Purchase Price would be required to be funded to FEAC (or, following the Assumption, Newco) pursuant to Section 3.1, Subscriber will have sufficient immediately available funds to pay the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 3.1 and will be able to consummate the subscription of the Subscribed Shares.

2.1.18. No broker, finder or other financial consultant has acted on behalf of Subscriber in connection with this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in such a way as to create any liability on FEAC, Newco or enGene.

2.1.19. Subscriber agrees that, from the date of this Subscription Agreement until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement, none of Subscriber, its controlled affiliates, or any person or entity acting on behalf of Subscriber or any of its controlled affiliates or pursuant to any understanding with Subscriber or any of its controlled affiliates will engage in any Short Sales with respect to securities of FEAC or Newco, as applicable. For the purposes hereof, “Short Sales” shall include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges (other than pledges in the ordinary course of business as part of prime brokerage arrangements), forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), including through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) nothing herein shall prohibit any entities under common management or that share an investment advisor with Subscriber (including Subscriber’s controlled affiliates and/or affiliates) that have no knowledge of this Subscription Agreement or of Subscriber’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby from entering into any Short Sales and (b) in the case of a Subscriber that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Subscriber’s assets, this Section 2.1.19 shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Subscribed Shares covered by this Subscription Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.1.19 shall not apply to (i) any sale (including the exercise of any redemption right) of securities of FEAC or Newco, as applicable (A) held by Subscriber, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of Subscriber or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the

execution of this Subscription Agreement or (B) purchased by Subscriber, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of Subscriber or any of its controlled affiliates in an open market transaction after the execution of this Subscription Agreement or (ii) ordinary course, non-speculative hedging transactions.

2.1.20. Subscriber acknowledges that it is aware that in connection with, and immediately upon completion of, the Cayman Merger, each Ordinary Share of FEAC issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Cayman Merger shall automatically be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive, without interest, one Newco Common Share. Subscriber acknowledges that the above will be effected as part of the Transactions without any further consent, vote, or approvals from Subscriber, and to the extent that Subscriber may have any such rights under Cayman Islands law, Canadian law or otherwise, Subscriber effectively forfeits such rights hereby.

2.1.21. The funds being used to purchase the Subscribed Shares which will be paid by the Subscriber to FEAC (or following the Assumption, Newco) in accordance with the terms hereunder will not represent proceeds of crime for the purposes of the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) (the “PCMLTFA”) and the Subscriber and the beneficial subscriber, if any, acknowledges that FEAC (or following the Assumption, Newco) may in the future be required by law to disclose the Subscriber’s or beneficial subscriber’s name and other information relating to this Subscription Agreement and the Subscriber’s subscription hereunder, on a confidential basis, pursuant to the PCMLTFA.

2.2.1. FEAC has been duly incorporated and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Cayman Islands and has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

2.2.2. This Subscription Agreement, the Other Subscription Agreements, the Business Combination Agreement and the Ancillary Documents (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) to which FEAC is a party have been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by FEAC and, assuming that the Transaction Documents to which FEAC is a party constitute valid and binding obligations of the other parties thereto, are valid and binding obligations of FEAC, and are enforceable against FEAC in accordance with their terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally and (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

2.2.3. Assuming the accuracy of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties in Section 2.1 hereof and Newco’s representations and warranties in Section 2.3 hereof, the execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents to which FEAC is a party (including compliance by FEAC with all of the provisions hereof), the issuance and sale of the Subscribed Shares and the consummation of the other transactions contemplated under the Transaction Documents, including the Transactions, do not and will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of FEAC or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, charge, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which FEAC or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which FEAC or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of FEAC or any of its subsidiaries is subject, which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, financial condition, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of FEAC, Newco or enGene and their respective subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or materially and adversely affects the ability of FEAC to timely perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, in each case subject to the exceptions in the definition of Company Material Adverse Effect in the Business Combination Agreement mutatis mutandis (collectively, a “FEAC Material Adverse Effect”), (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of FEAC or any of its subsidiaries or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over FEAC or any of its subsidiaries or any of its properties that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a FEAC Material Adverse Effect.

2.2.4. Neither FEAC, nor any person acting on its behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security of FEAC nor solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would adversely affect reliance by FEAC on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act for the exemption from registration for the transactions contemplated hereby or would require registration or qualification of the issuance of the Subscribed Shares under the Securities Act or a prospectus under Canadian Securities Laws.

2.2.5. Except for the Placement Agents, no broker or finder is entitled to any brokerage or finder’s fee or commission from FEAC solely in connection with the sale of the Subscribed Shares to the Subscriber.

2.2.6.

No Other Subscription Agreement, side letter or similar agreement with an Other Subscriber contains terms (including the Per Share Price term) that are materially more advantageous to such Other Subscriber thereunder than the terms of this Subscription Agreement (other than terms particular to the regulatory requirements of such Other Subscriber or its affiliates or related funds that are mutual funds or are otherwise subject to regulations related to the timing of funding and the issuance of the related Ordinary Shares (or, following the Assumption, Newco Common Shares)). The Other Subscription Agreements have not been amended in any material respect following the date of this Subscription Agreement to include terms that are materially more advantageous to any Other Subscriber thereunder than the terms of this Subscription Agreement (other than terms particular to the regulatory requirements of such Other Subscriber or its affiliates or related funds that are mutual funds or are otherwise subject to regulations related to the timing of funding and the issuance of the related Ordinary Shares (or, following the Assumption, Newco Common Shares)).

2.2.8.

2.2.10. Assuming the accuracy of Subscriber’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.1, FEAC is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by FEAC of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Subscribed Shares), other than (i) filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), (ii) filings required by applicable state or federal securities laws, including filings pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act, (iii) filings required in accordance with Section 4, (iv) filings required by applicable Canadian Securities Laws, (v) filings required to consummate the Transactions as provided under the Business Combination Agreement, (vi) those required by The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Nasdaq”) or other national securities exchange registered under the Exchange Act (an “Exchange”), as applicable, and (vii) filings, the failure of which to obtain would not be reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a FEAC Material Adverse Effect.

2.2.11. FEAC made available to Subscriber (including via the Commission’s ▇▇▇▇▇ system) a true, correct and complete copy of each form, report, statement, schedule, prospectus, proxy, registration statement and other documents filed by FEAC with the Commission prior to the date of this Subscription Agreement (the “SEC Documents”), which SEC Documents, as of their respective filing dates, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to the SEC Documents and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder and applicable to the SEC Documents. As of their respective dates, all SEC Documents required to be filed by FEAC with the Commission prior to the date hereof complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder. None of the SEC Documents filed under the Exchange Act, contained, when filed or, if amended prior to the date of this Subscription Agreement, as of the date of such amendment with respect to those disclosures that are amended, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that FEAC makes no such representation or warranty with respect to the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed with respect to the Transactions or any other information relating to Newco, enGene or any of their affiliates included in any SEC Document or filed as an exhibit thereto. FEAC has filed each report, statement, schedule, prospectus, and registration statement that FEAC was required to file with the Commission since its inception and through the date hereof. There are no material outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters from the Commission staff with respect to any of the SEC Documents. The financial statements of FEAC included in the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing and fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of FEAC as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, year-end audit adjustments, and such financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be disclosed therein or in the notes thereto, and except that the unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP); except, in each case, as set forth in any subsequent SEC Document filed or furnished with the Commission on or prior to the date hereof.

2.2.12. FEAC is not, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Subscribed Shares will not be, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

2.2.13. FEAC is not (i) a person or entity named on any Sanctions List, (ii) directly or indirectly 50% or more owned or otherwise controlled by, or acting on behalf of, one or more persons on a Sanctions List, (iii) organized, incorporated, established or located in a country or territory that is the target of country-wide or territory-wide economic or trade sanctions (currently Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, the Crimea region of Ukraine, the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic, the so-called Luhansk People’s Republic and any other Covered Region of Ukraine identified pursuant to Executive Order 14065, and non-government controlled areas of the Kherson and Zaporizhia region of Ukraine) or (iv) a non-U.S. shell bank or providing banking services indirectly to a non-U.S. shell bank. The representations, warranties and undertakings in this Section 2.2.13 will not apply to any party hereto to which the Blocking Regulation applies, if and to the extent that such representation, warranty or undertaking is or would be invalid or unenforceable by reason of breach of any provision of the Blocking Regulation (or any law or regulation implementing such Blocking Regulation or any similar measure in any member state of the European Union or the United Kingdom). If FEAC is a financial institution subject to the BSA/PATRIOT Act, FEAC represents that it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. FEAC also represents that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with sanctions programs administered by OFAC, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Canada, HMT, any European Union member state and the United Kingdom, including for the screening of its investors against the Sanctions List and the OFAC sanctions programs. FEAC further represents and warrants that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by FEAC were legally derived.

2.2.14. FEAC is not in default or violation (and no event has occurred which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or violation) of any term, condition or provision of (i) the organizational documents of FEAC, (ii) any loan or credit agreement, guarantee, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, permit, franchise or license to which, as of the date of this Subscription Agreement, FEAC is a party or by which FEAC’s properties or assets are bound or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency, taxing authority or regulatory body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over FEAC or any of its properties, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for defaults or violations that have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a FEAC Material Adverse Effect.

2.2.15. FEAC is in compliance with all applicable laws, except where such non-compliance would not be reasonably likely to have a FEAC Material Adverse Effect. FEAC has not received any written communication from a governmental entity that alleges that FEAC is not in compliance with or is in default or violation of any applicable law, except where such non- compliance, default or violation would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a FEAC Material Adverse Effect.

2.2.16. As of the date hereof, the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and are listed for trading on Nasdaq under the symbol “FRBN”. There is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of FEAC, threatened against FEAC by Nasdaq or the Commission with respect to any intention by such entity to deregister the Ordinary Shares or prohibit or terminate the listing of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq. FEAC has taken no action that is designed to terminate the registration of the Ordinary Shares under the Exchange Act or the listing of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq.

2.2.17. All issued and outstanding FEAC Shares have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable and are not subject to preemptive or similar rights and all outstanding FEAC Warrants have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and are not subject to preemptive or similar rights. There are no shareholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which FEAC is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any securities of FEAC, other than as contemplated by or described in, as applicable, the Transactions, the Transaction Documents or the SEC Documents. Except as contemplated by or described in, as applicable, the Transactions, the Transaction Documents or the SEC Documents, there are no securities or instruments issued by or to which FEAC is a party containing anti-dilution or similar provisions that will be triggered, and not fully waived by the holder of such securities or instruments pursuant to a written agreement or consent, by the issuance of (i) the Subscribed Shares, (ii) the shares to be issued pursuant to any Other Subscription Agreement or (iii) the consummation of the Transactions.

Upon written notice from (or on behalf of) FEAC to Subscriber (the “Closing Notice”) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date that FEAC reasonably expects all conditions to the Amalgamation Closing to be satisfied (the “Expected Closing Date”), Subscriber shall deliver to FEAC no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Expected Closing Date (i) the Purchase Price for the Subscribed Shares by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by FEAC in the Closing Notice, such funds to be held by FEAC in escrow, segregated from and not co-mingled with the other funds of FEAC (and in no event will such funds be held in the Trust Account) for the benefit of Subscriber until the Closing at which point the funds shall be released to Newco at the time of the PIPE Financing; and (ii) any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for FEAC (or, following the Assumption, Newco) to issue the Subscribed Shares including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such Subscribed Shares are to be issued, and if applicable, a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or the applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, as applicable.

FEAC’s (or following the Assumption, Newco’s) obligations to sell and issue the Subscribed Shares at the Closing are subject to the fulfillment or (to the extent permitted by applicable law) written waiver by FEAC (or following the Assumption, Newco), on or prior to the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions:

3.2.1. Representations and Warranties Correct. The representations and warranties made by Subscriber in Section 2.1 hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects when made (unless they specifically speak as of another date in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date) (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Subscriber Material Adverse Effect, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects), and shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date (unless they specifically speak as of another date in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date) (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Subscriber Material Adverse Effect, which representations and warranties shall be true in all respects) with the same force and effect as if they had been made on and as of said date, but in each case without giving effect to the Amalgamation Closing.

3.2.2. Compliance with Covenants. Subscriber shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with the covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by Subscriber at or prior to the Closing.

3.2.3. Closing of the Transactions. All conditions precedent to the Amalgamation Closing set forth in the Business Combination Agreement shall have been satisfied or waived by the party entitled to the benefit thereof under the Business Combination Agreement, and the Cayman Merger has been consummated.

3.2.4. Legality. There shall not be in force any order, judgment, injunction, decree, writ, stipulation, determination or award, in each case, entered by or with any governmental authority, statute, rule or regulation enjoining or prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement or the Transactions and no such governmental authority shall have instituted or threatened in writing a proceeding seeking to impose any such restraint or prohibition.

3.2.5. Regulatory Approvals. FEAC shall have obtained all required regulatory approvals (including those that may be required under the securities laws of the United States or Canadian Securities Laws) to permit the completion of the transactions contemplated hereby.

3.2.6. No Registration or Prospectus Requirements. The offer, issue, sale and delivery of the Subscribed Shares shall be exempt from any applicable requirements to file a registration statement or prospectus or deliver an offering memorandum (as defined in applicable securities laws, including securities laws of the United States or Canadian Securities Laws) or any similar document under applicable securities laws, including securities laws of the United States or Canadian Securities Laws, or FEAC or Newco shall have received such orders, consents or approvals as may be required to permit such sale without the requirement of filing a registration statement or prospectus or delivering an offering memorandum or any similar document.

3.3. Conditions to Closing of Subscriber.

Subscriber’s obligation to purchase the Subscribed Shares at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment or (to the extent permitted by applicable law) written waiver by Subscriber, on or prior to the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions:

3.3.1. Representations and Warranties Correct. The representations and warranties made by FEAC in Section 2.2 and Newco in Section 2.3 hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects when made (unless they specifically speak as of another date in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date) (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or FEAC Material Adverse Effect or Newco Material Adverse Effect, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects), and shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date (unless they specifically speak as of another date in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date) (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or FEAC Material Adverse Effect or Newco Material Adverse Effect, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) with the same force and effect as if they had been made on and as of said date, but in each case without giving effect to the Amalgamation Closing.

3.3.2. Compliance with Covenants. Each of FEAC and Newco shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all respects with the covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by FEAC and Newco at or prior to the Closing, except where the failure of such performance or compliance would not or would not reasonably be expected to prevent, materially delay, or materially impair the ability of FEAC and Newco to consummate the Closing.

3.3.3. Closing of the Transactions. All conditions precedent to the Transactions (other than those Transactions that are scheduled to be completed following the Amalgamation Closing) set forth in the Business Combination Agreement or other relevant transaction agreements shall have been satisfied or waived by the party entitled to the benefit thereof under the Business Combination Agreement. Except to the extent consented to in writing by Subscriber (which consent is not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Business Combination Agreement (as filed with the Commission on or shortly after the date hereof) shall not have been amended, modified, supplemented or waived in a manner that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the economic benefits that Subscriber would reasonably expect to receive under this Subscription Agreement in a manner disproportionate to other shareholders of FEAC or Newco. Newco shall have assumed all of the obligations of FEAC hereunder in accordance with Section 6.6 hereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, standing in the place of the “FEAC” for purposes of Section 4 hereunder). There shall have been no amendment, waiver or modification to the Other Subscription Agreements that materially benefits any such Other Subscriber thereunder (other than terms particular to the legal or regulatory requirements of such Other Subscriber or its affiliates or related persons) unless Subscriber has been offered substantially the same benefits.

3.3.4. Legality. There shall not be in force any order, judgment, injunction, decree, writ, stipulation, determination or award, in each case, entered by or with any governmental authority, statute, rule or regulation enjoining or prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement or the Transactions and no such governmental authority shall have instituted or threatened in writing a proceeding seeking to impose any such restraint or prohibition.

3.3.5. Listing. No suspension of the qualification of the Ordinary Shares for offering or sale or trading in any jurisdiction, and no suspension or removal from listing of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq or other Exchange, as applicable, and no initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes or delisting, shall have occurred, and the Subscribed Shares shall be approved for listing on Nasdaq or other Exchange, as applicable, subject to official notice of issuance.

3.4. From the date hereof until the Closing Date, FEAC shall provide prompt written notice to Subscriber of any (i) amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Business Combination Agreement that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the economic benefits that Subscriber, FEAC or Newco would reasonably expect to receive under this Subscription Agreement or (ii) any declaration by FEAC of a FEAC Material Adverse Effect or Newco of a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) under the Business Combination Agreement.

4. Registration Statement.

4.1. FEAC (or subject to and in accordance with the Assumption, Newco) agrees that, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the Closing Date (the date on which the Registration Statement is filed, the “Filing Date”), it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission (at FEAC’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the Subscribed Shares and/or any other equity security (of FEAC, any successor entity or otherwise) issued or issuable with respect to the Subscribed Shares by way of share split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, replacement or similar event or otherwise (the “Registrable Securities”), and FEAC shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the 60th calendar day (or 90th calendar day if the Staff of the Commission notifies FEAC that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Closing Date (the date on which the Registration Statement is declared effective, the “Effectiveness Date”); provided, however, that FEAC’s obligations to include the Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing a completed and executed selling shareholders questionnaire in customary form to FEAC that contains the information required by Commission rules for a Registration Statement regarding Subscriber, the securities of FEAC held by Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities, and Subscriber shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as FEAC may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that FEAC shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement, if applicable, as permitted hereunder; provided, that Subscriber shall not in connection with the foregoing be required to execute any lock-up or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restriction on the ability to transfer the Registrable Securities, and unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Subscriber prior to the filing of the Registration Statement, Subscriber shall not be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement; provided, that if the Commission requests that Subscriber be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, Subscriber will have the opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement upon its prompt written request to FEAC. For purposes of clarification, any failure by FEAC to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Date or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness Date shall not otherwise relieve FEAC of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement as set forth above in this Section 4. For purposes of this Section 4, “Subscriber” shall include any person to which the rights under this Section 4 shall have been duly assigned. FEAC will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide a draft of the Registration Statement to Subscriber for review at least two (2) Business Days in advance of filing the Registration Statement; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall FEAC be required to delay or postpone the filing of such Registration Statement as a result of or in connection with the Subscriber’s review. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents FEAC from including any or all of the Registrable Securities proposed to be registered for resale under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Registrable Securities by the applicable shareholders or otherwise, (i) such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Subscribed Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Subscribed Shares as is permitted by the Commission and (ii) the number of Subscribed Shares to be registered for each selling shareholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling

shareholders; and as promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional Subscribed Shares under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, FEAC shall amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement to register such Subscribed Shares not included in the initial Registration Statement and cause such amendment or Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable.

4.2. In the case of the registration effected by FEAC pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, FEAC shall, upon reasonable request, inform Subscriber as to the status of such registration. At its expense FEAC shall:

4.2.1. except for such times as FEAC is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration, and any qualification, exemption or compliance under state securities laws which FEAC determines to obtain, continuously effective, and to keep the applicable Registration Statement or any subsequent shelf registration statement free of any material misstatements or omissions, until the earlier of the following: (i) the third anniversary of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, (ii) when Subscriber has sold all of its Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 and (iii) the date all Registrable Securities held by the Subscriber may be sold without restriction under Rule 144, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions which may be applicable to affiliates under Rule 144 and without the requirement for FEAC to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable); provided, that for as long as the Registration Statement shall remain effective pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, FEAC will (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports, and (b) provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include the Registrable Securities;

4.2.2. use commercially reasonable efforts to advise Subscriber within five (5) Business Days:

(a) when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;

(b) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information;

(c) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;

(d) of the receipt by FEAC of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and

(e) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading;

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, FEAC shall not, when so advising Subscriber of such events, provide Subscriber with any material, non-public information regarding FEAC or subject Subscriber to any duty of confidentiality;

4.2.3. use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;

4.2.4. upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in Section 4.2.2(e), except for such times as FEAC is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, FEAC shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

4.2.5. use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Subscribed Shares to be listed on each securities exchange or market, if any, on which FEAC’s Ordinary Shares are then listed;

4.2.6. use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps reasonably necessary to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities and to enable the sale of the Registrable Securities under Rule 144; and

4.2.7. use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause FEAC’s transfer agent to remove any restrictive legend, at Subscriber’s request, as provided in Section 10.3 hereof.

4.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, FEAC shall be entitled to delay or postpone the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, and from time to time to require Subscriber not to sell under the Registration Statement or to suspend the effectiveness thereof, (i) as may be necessary in connection with the preparation and filing of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement following the filing of FEAC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or 20-F, as applicable, or (ii) if the filing, effectiveness or continued use of any Registration Statement would require FEAC to make any public disclosure of material non-public information, which disclosure, in the good faith determination of the board of directors of

FEAC, after consultation with counsel to FEAC, (a) would be required to be made in any Registration Statement in order for the applicable Registration Statement not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading, (b) would not be required to be made at such time if the Registration Statement were not being filed, and (c) FEAC has a bona fide business purpose for not making such information public (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, however, that FEAC may not delay or suspend the Registration Statement on more than two occasions or for more than sixty (60) consecutive calendar days, or more than one hundred twenty (120) total calendar days, in each case, during any three hundred sixty (360) day period. Upon receipt of any written notice from FEAC (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding FEAC and which notice shall not be subject to any duty of confidentiality) of the happening of any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, Subscriber agrees that it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Subscribed Shares under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until Subscriber receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which FEAC agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by FEAC that it may resume such offers and sales (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding FEAC and which notice shall not be subject to any duty of confidentiality). If so directed by FEAC, Subscriber will deliver to FEAC or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares shall not apply (i) to the extent Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (a) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (b) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (ii) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up. Subscriber may deliver written notice (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to FEAC requesting that Subscriber not receive notices from FEAC otherwise required by this Section 4; provided, however, that Subscriber may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from Subscriber (unless subsequently revoked), (i) FEAC shall not deliver any such notices to Subscriber and Subscriber shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with any such notice and (ii) each time prior to Subscriber’s intended use of an effective Registration Statement, Subscriber will notify FEAC in writing at least two (2) business days in advance of such intended use, and if a notice of a Suspension Event was previously delivered (or would have been delivered but for the provisions of the preceding sentence) and the related suspension period remains in effect, FEAC will so notify Subscriber, within one (1) business day of Subscriber’s notification to FEAC, by delivering to Subscriber a copy of such previous notice of Suspension Event, and thereafter will provide Subscriber with the related notice of the conclusion of such Suspension Event promptly following its availability.

4.4. The parties agree that:

4.4.1. FEAC shall, notwithstanding the termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, Subscriber (to the extent Subscriber is named as a selling shareholder under any Registration Statement), the officers, directors, agents, partners, members, managers, shareholders, affiliates, employees of each Subscriber, each person who controls such Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, shareholders, agents, affiliates and employees of each such controlling person from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, any reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees of one law firm and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and expenses incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement (or incorporated by reference therein), prospectus included in any Registration Statement or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by FEAC of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 4, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to FEAC by or on behalf of Subscriber expressly for use therein or Subscriber has omitted a material fact from such information; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 4.4 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the consent of FEAC (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), nor shall FEAC be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon a violation which occurs (A) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by Subscriber expressly for use in such Registration Statement or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, (B) in connection with any failure of such person to deliver or cause to be delivered a prospectus made available by FEAC in a timely manner, (C) as a result of offers or sales effected by or on behalf of any person by means of a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) that was not authorized by FEAC or (D) in connection with any offers or sales effected by or on behalf of Subscriber in violation of Section 4.3 hereof. FEAC shall notify Subscriber promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 4 of which FEAC is aware.

4.4.2. Subscriber agrees, severally and not jointly with any person that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, FEAC and each Placement Agent and each of FEAC’s and each Placement Agent’s respective directors, officers, employees and agents and each person who controls FEAC and such Placement Agent, as applicable (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) against any and all Losses, as incurred, that arise out of or result from any untrue or alleged untrue statement

of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included in any Registration Statement or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Subscriber expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 4.4 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the consent of Subscriber (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Subscriber shall notify FEAC promptly of the institution, threat, or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 4 of which the Subscriber is aware.

4.4.3. Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

4.4.4. The indemnification provided for under this Subscription Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Subscribed Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

4.4.5. If the indemnification provided under this Section 4.4 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the Losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Each indemnifying party’s obligation to make a contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall be individual, not joint and several, and in no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement giving rise to such contribution obligation.

5. Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (i) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with its terms without being consummated, (ii) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (iii) the Termination Date (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), (iv) if the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 3.3 hereof are not satisfied or (to the extent permitted by applicable law) waived in writing, or are not capable of being satisfied or (to the extent permitted by applicable law) waived in writing, on or prior to the Closing Date and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement will not be or are not consummated on the Closing Date and (v) FEAC’s notification to the Subscriber in writing that it has, with the prior written consent of Newco and enGene, abandoned its plans to move forward with the Transactions and/or terminated the Subscriber’s obligations with respect to the subscription without the issuance of the Subscribed Shares having occurred. FEAC shall promptly notify Subscriber in writing of the termination of the Business Combination Agreement promptly after the termination of such agreement. Upon the termination hereof in accordance with this Section 5, any monies paid by Subscriber to FEAC in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) be returned in full to Subscriber by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by Subscriber, without any deduction for or on account of any tax withholding, charges or set-off, whether or not the Transactions shall have been consummated.

6. Miscellaneous.

6.1. Further Assurances. At the Closing, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take such additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be practical and necessary in order to consummate the Subscription as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

6.1.1. Subscriber acknowledges that FEAC, Newco and the Placement Agents will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, undertakings, agreements, representations and warranties made by Subscriber contained in this Subscription Agreement. Prior to the Closing, Subscriber agrees to promptly notify FEAC, Newco and the Placement Agents if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, undertakings, agreements, representations and warranties made by Subscriber set forth herein are no longer accurate in all material respects. Each of FEAC and Newco acknowledges that Subscriber and the Placement Agents will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, undertakings, agreements, representations and warranties made by FEAC and Newco contained in this Subscription Agreement. Prior to the Closing, each of FEAC and ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to promptly notify Subscriber and the Placement Agents if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, undertakings, agreements, representations and warranties made by FEAC and Newco set forth herein are no longer accurate in all material respects (other than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, undertakings, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case FEAC or Newco shall notify Subscriber and the Placement Agents if they are no longer accurate in any respect).

6.1.2. Each of FEAC, Newco, Subscriber and each of the Placement Agents is entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and is irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby.

6.1.3. FEAC may request from Subscriber such additional information as FEAC may reasonably deem necessary to evaluate the eligibility of Subscriber to acquire the Subscribed Shares, and Subscriber shall provide such information as may be reasonably requested, to the extent within Subscriber’s possession and control or otherwise readily available to Subscriber, provided that FEAC agrees to keep confidential any such information provided by Subscriber.

6.1.4. Each of Subscriber, FEAC and Newco shall pay all of its own respective expenses in connection with this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein (it being agreed that all expenses related to any Registration Statement are for the account of FEAC to the extent provided in Section 4, and FEAC shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent and all of DTC’s fees associated with the issuance of the Subscribed Shares).

6.1.5. Each of Subscriber, FEAC and Newco shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement on the terms and conditions described therein no later than immediately prior to the Amalgamation Closing.

6.2. Subscriber hereby acknowledges and agrees that, except in respect of any stock lending program, it will not, nor will any person acting at Subscriber’s direction or pursuant to any understanding with Subscriber (including Subscriber’s controlled affiliates), directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, contract to sell, sell any option in, or engage in hedging activities or execute any “short sales” (as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act) with respect to, any Subscribed Shares or any securities of FEAC or any instrument exchangeable for or convertible into any Subscribed Shares or any securities of FEAC until the Amalgamation Closing (or such earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement in accordance with its terms). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing herein shall prohibit any entities under common management or that share an investment advisor with Subscriber (including Subscriber’s controlled affiliates and/or affiliates) that have no knowledge of this Subscription Agreement or of Subscriber’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby from entering into any Short Sales; (ii) in the case of a Subscriber that is a multimanaged investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Subscriber’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Subscriber’s assets, this Section 6.2 shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Subscribed Shares covered by this Subscription Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.2 shall not apply to (i) any sale (including the exercise of any redemption right) of securities of FEAC (A) held by Subscriber, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of Subscriber or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the execution of this Subscription Agreement or (B) purchased by Subscriber, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of Subscriber or any of its controlled affiliates in an open market transaction after the execution of this Subscription Agreement or (ii) ordinary course, non-speculative hedging transactions. FEAC acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Subscribed Shares may be pledged by Subscriber in connection with a bona fide margin agreement, provided that such pledge shall be (i) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that is effective under the Securities Act at the time of such pledge, and Subscriber effecting a pledge of the Subscribed Shares shall not be required to provide FEAC with any notice thereof; provided, however, that neither FEAC nor its counsel shall be required to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) in connection with any such pledge, other than providing any such lender of such margin agreement with an acknowledgment that the Subscribed Shares are not subject to any contractual lock up or prohibition on pledging, the form of such acknowledgment to be subject to review and comment by FEAC in all respects.

6.3. Notices. Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and either delivered personally, emailed or sent by overnight mail via a reputable overnight carrier, or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, and shall be deemed to be given and received (i) when so delivered personally, (ii) when sent, with no mail undeliverable or other rejection notice, if sent by email, or (iii) three (3) Business Days after the date of mailing to the address below or to such other address or addresses as such person may hereafter designate by notice given hereunder:

6.4. Entire Agreement. This Subscription Agreement and any amendments hereto constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof, including any commitment letter entered into relating to the subject matter hereof.

6.5. Modifications and Amendments. This Subscription Agreement may not be amended, modified, supplemented or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver is sought.

6.6. Newco Assumptions of Obligations. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof applicable to FEAC’s obligations hereunder, Newco acknowledges that, by virtue of and with effect from the FEAC Reorganization becoming effective, and without further action by FEAC, Newco or the Subscriber, the Assumption shall become effective so that Newco shall assume all of FEAC’s obligations under this Subscription Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligation to issue the Subscribed Shares and the obligations of FEAC set forth in Section 4 hereof and FEAC shall assign all of its rights under this Subscription Agreement to Newco. By virtue of, and with effect from, the FEAC Reorganization becoming effective, and without further action by FEAC, Newco or the Subscriber, (i) all surviving rights, covenants, and obligations of FEAC under this Subscription Agreement shall be rights, covenants, and obligations of Newco; and (ii) Newco shall be liable for any breach of any representation or warranty by FEAC set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The Subscriber hereby expressly agrees to and acknowledges the Assumption in accordance with the foregoing and the other terms hereof.

6.7. Assignment. Except pursuant to the Assumption, neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights, interests or obligations that may accrue to Subscriber (including Subscriber’s rights to purchase the Subscribed Shares) may be transferred or assigned without the prior consent of FEAC (or, following the Assumption, Newco); provided that Subscriber’s rights and obligations hereunder may be assigned to any fund or account managed by the same investment manager as Subscriber, without the prior consent of FEAC, provided that such assignee(s) agrees in writing to be bound by the terms hereof, and upon such assignment by a Subscriber, the assignee(s) shall become Subscriber hereunder and have the rights and obligations and be deemed to make the representations and warranties of Subscriber provided for herein to the extent of such assignment; provided further that, no assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder, including any assignment to any fund or account managed by the same investment manager as Subscriber.

6.8. Benefit. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. This Subscription Agreement shall not confer rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Placement Agents shall be third-party beneficiaries to the representations,

warranties, understandings and undertakings made by FEAC, Newco and Subscriber in this Subscription Agreement and as provided in Section 4.4.2, Section 6.15 and Section 9 and enGene shall be a third-party beneficiary with respect to the entirety of this Subscription Agreement and as provided in Section 4.4.

6.9. Governing Law. This Subscription Agreement, and any claim or cause of action hereunder based upon, arising out of or related to this Subscription Agreement (whether based on law, in equity, in contract, in tort or any other theory) or the negotiation, execution, performance or enforcement of this Subscription Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

6.10. Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, provided that if subject matter jurisdiction over the matter that is the subject of the legal proceeding is vested exclusively in the U.S. federal courts, such legal proceeding shall be heard in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (together with the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, “Chosen Courts”), in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Subscription Agreement. Each party hereby waives, and shall not assert as a defense in any legal dispute, that (i) such person is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts for any reason, (ii) such legal proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in the Chosen Courts, (iii) such person’s property is exempt or immune from execution, (iv) such legal proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or (v) the venue of such legal proceeding is improper. Each party hereby consents to service of process in any such proceeding in any manner permitted by Delaware law, further consents to service of process by nationally recognized overnight courier service guaranteeing overnight delivery, or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at its address specified pursuant to Section 6.3 and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which they might otherwise have to such manner of service of process. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 6.10, a party may commence any action, claim, cause of action or suit in a court other than the Chosen Courts solely for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by the Chosen Courts. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH OF THE PARTIES WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS ASSERTED IN ANY LEGAL DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED.

6.11. Severability. If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

6.12. No Waiver of Rights, Powers and Remedies. No failure or delay by a party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Subscription Agreement, and no course of dealing between the parties hereto, shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy of such party. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy under this Subscription Agreement by a party hereto, nor any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such right, power or remedy, shall preclude such party from any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The election of any remedy by a party hereto shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such party to pursue other available remedies. No notice to or demand on a party not expressly required under this Subscription Agreement shall entitle the party receiving such notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the party giving such notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without such notice or demand.

6.13. Remedies.

6.13.1. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if this Subscription Agreement is not performed or the Closing is not consummated in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damage. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to equitable relief, including in the form of an injunction or injunctions, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Subscription Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement in an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction as set forth in Section 6.10, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity, including money damages. The right to specific enforcement shall include the right of the parties hereto to cause the other parties hereto to cause the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated on the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The parties hereto further agree (i) to waive any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with any such equitable remedy, (ii) not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement pursuant to this Section 6.13 is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable law or inequitable for any reason and (iii) to waive any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

6.13.2. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 6.13 is an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby and without that right, the parties hereto would not have entered into this Subscription Agreement.

6.14. Survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenants. All representations and warranties made by the parties hereto, and all covenants and other agreements of the parties hereto, in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.

6.15. No Liability. Subscriber agrees that none of the Placement Agents shall be liable to it (including in contract, tort, under federal or state securities laws or otherwise) for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in good faith in connection with the Transactions and the purchase and sale of the Subscribed Shares hereunder.

On behalf of Subscriber and its affiliates, Subscriber releases the Placement Agents in respect of any Losses related to the Transactions and the purchase and sale of the Subscribed Shares hereunder. Subscriber agrees not to commence any litigation or bring any claim against any of the Placement Agents in any court or any other forum which relates to, may arise out of, or is in connection with, the Transactions and the purchase and sale of the Subscribed Shares hereunder. This undertaking is given freely and after obtaining independent legal advice, except for such party’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

6.16. Headings and Captions. The headings and captions of the various subdivisions of this Subscription Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify or affect the meaning or construction of any of the terms or provisions hereof.

6.17. Counterparts. This Subscription Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or any other form of electronic delivery, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

6.18. Construction. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The words “this Subscription Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Subscription Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance. If any party hereto has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which such party hereto has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party hereto is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant. All references in this Subscription Agreement to numbers of shares, per share amounts and purchase prices shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or the like occurring after the date hereof.

6.19. Mutual Drafting. This Subscription Agreement is the joint product of the parties hereto and each provision hereof has been subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of the parties and shall not be construed for or against any party hereto.

7. Cleansing Statement; Disclosure.

7.1. Newco shall use commercially reasonable efforts to publicly file a registration statement on Form S-4 with respect to the Transactions with the Commission as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Subscription Agreement (the “Disclosure Document”) disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Other Subscription Agreements and the Transactions and any other material nonpublic information that FEAC or its officers, directors, employees or agents has provided to Subscriber prior to the filing of the Disclosure Document. Upon the issuance of the Disclosure Document, to the actual knowledge of FEAC, Subscriber shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information received from FEAC, Newco, enGene or any of their officers, directors, employees or agents, and Subscriber shall no longer be subject to any confidentiality or similar obligations under any current agreement, whether written or oral, with FEAC, Newco, enGene, the Placement Agents or any of their respective affiliates, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

7.2. Notwithstanding anything in this Subscription Agreement to the contrary, FEAC and Newco shall not (and shall cause their officers, directors, employees and agents not to) publicly disclose the name of Subscriber or any affiliate or investment adviser of Subscriber, or include the name of Subscriber or any affiliate or investment adviser of Subscriber without the prior written consent (including by e-mail) of Subscriber (i) in any press release or marketing materials, or (ii) in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or trading market, except as required by the federal securities laws, rules or regulations and to the extent such disclosure is required by other laws, rules or regulations, at the request of the staff of the Commission or regulatory agency or under regulations of Nasdaq or other Exchange, as applicable, in which case FEAC and Newco shall provide Subscriber with prior written notice (including by e-mail) of such permitted disclosure, and shall reasonably consult with Subscriber regarding such disclosure.

8. Trust Account Waiver. In addition to the waiver of Newco pursuant to Section 8.17 of the Business Combination Agreement, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Subscriber acknowledges that FEAC has established a trust account containing the proceeds of its initial public offering and from certain private placements (collectively, with interest accrued from time to time thereon, the “Trust Account”). Subscriber acknowledges that (i) it has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and (ii) it shall have no right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account, in each case in connection with this Subscription Agreement, and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account that it may have in connection with this Subscription Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8 shall (x) serve to limit or prohibit Subscriber’s right to pursue a claim against FEAC for legal relief against assets held outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other equitable relief, (y) serve to limit or prohibit any claims that Subscriber may have in the future against FEAC’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds) or (z) be deemed to limit Subscriber’s right, title, interest or claim to the Trust Account by virtue of such Subscriber’s record or beneficial ownership of securities of FEAC, including, but not limited to, any redemption right with respect to any such securities of FEAC. In the event Subscriber has any Claim against FEAC under this Subscription Agreement, Subscriber shall pursue such Claim solely against FEAC and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the property or any monies in the Trust Account. Subscriber agrees and acknowledges that such waiver is material to this Subscription Agreement and has been specifically relied upon by FEAC to induce FEAC to enter into this Subscription Agreement and Subscriber further intends and understands such waiver to

be valid, binding and enforceable under applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the terms of this Section 8 apply to any money or other assets held outside the Trust Account. In the event Subscriber, in connection with this Subscription Agreement, commences any action which seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the funds held in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom or any of FEAC’s or Newco’s shareholders, whether in the form of monetary damages or injunctive relief, Subscriber shall be obligated to pay to FEAC and Newco all of their legal fees and costs in connection with any such action in the event that FEAC and Newco prevail in such action.

9. Non-Reliance. Subscriber acknowledges that it is not relying upon, and has not relied upon, any statement, representation or warranty made by any person, firm or corporation, (including, without limitation, enGene, any Placement Agent, any of their respective affiliates or any of their respective control persons, officers, directors or employees), other than the representations and warranties of FEAC and Newco expressly set forth in this Subscription Agreement, in making its investment or decision to invest in FEAC. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that none of (i) an Other Subscriber pursuant to any Other Subscription Agreement or any other agreement related to the PIPE Financing (including the controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents or employees of any such Other Subscriber) or (ii) enGene, the Placement Agents, their respective affiliates or any of their respective control persons, officers, directors, partners, agents or employees, shall be liable to Subscriber pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or any other agreement related to the PIPE Financing for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the PIPE Financing or with respect to any claim (whether in tort, contract, under federal or state securities laws or otherwise) for breach of this Subscription Agreement or in respect of any written or oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith, except as expressly provided herein, or for any actual or alleged inaccuracies, misstatements or omissions with respect to any information or materials of any kind furnished by FEAC, the Newco, the Placement Agents or any Non-Party Affiliate (as defined below) concerning FEAC, Newco, the Placement Agents, any of their controlled affiliates, this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “Non-Party Affiliates” means each former, current or future officer, director, employee, partner, member, manager, direct or indirect equityholder or affiliate of FEAC, Newco, the Placement Agents or any of FEAC’s, Newco’s or the Placement Agents’ controlled affiliates or any family member of the foregoing. The obligations of Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Subscriber or any other investor under the Other Subscription Agreements, and Subscriber shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement or any Other Subscriber or other investor under the Other Subscription Agreements. The decision of Subscriber to purchase Subscribed Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement has been made by Subscriber independently of any Other Subscriber or any other investor and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of FEAC or Newco or any of their respective affiliates or subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any Other Subscriber or investor or by any agent or employee of any Other Subscriber or investor, and neither Subscriber nor any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Other Subscriber or investor (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein or in any Other

Subscription Agreement, and no action taken by Subscriber or Other Subscriber or other investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Subscriber and any Other Subscribers or other investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that Subscriber and any Other Subscribers or other investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements. Subscriber acknowledges that no Other Subscriber has acted as agent for Subscriber in connection with making its investment hereunder and no Other Subscriber will be acting as agent of Subscriber in connection with monitoring its investment in the Subscribed Shares or enforcing its rights under this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Subscription Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Subscriber or investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

10. Rule 144. From and after such time as the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may allow Subscriber to sell securities of FEAC to the public without registration are available to holders of FEAC’s shares of common stock and for so long as Subscriber holds the Subscribed Shares, FEAC agrees to:

10.1. make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; and

10.2. file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of FEAC under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as FEAC remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

10.3. furnish to Subscriber so long as it owns Subscribed Shares, as promptly as practicable upon request, (x) a written statement by FEAC, if true, that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and (y) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit Subscriber to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

FEAC (or following the Assumption, Newco) shall, if requested by Subscriber, use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause the removal of any restrictive legend related to compliance with the federal securities laws set forth on the Subscribed Shares, (ii) request its legal counsel to deliver an opinion, if necessary, to the transfer agent in connection with the instruction under subclause (i) to the effect that removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected in compliance under the Securities Act, and (iii) issue Subscribed Shares without any such legend in certificated or book-entry form or by electronic delivery through The Depository Trust Company, at Subscriber’s option, if (a) Subscriber has sold or transferred Subscribed Shares pursuant to the effective Registration Statement or in compliance with Rule 144, or (b) Subscriber intends to sell or transfer Subscribed Shares pursuant to the effective Registration Statement or in compliance with Rule 144 promptly after such request to FEAC. FEAC’s obligation to remove legends under this paragraph may be conditioned upon Subscriber providing such undertakings, representations and documentation (including broker representation

letters) as are reasonably necessary and customarily required in connection with the removal of restrictive legends related to compliance with the federal securities laws. Subscriber agrees to disclose its beneficial ownership, as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, of Ordinary Shares to FEAC (or its successor) upon reasonable request to assist FEAC in making the determination described above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, FEAC will not be required to deliver any such opinion, authorization, certificate, or direction if it reasonably believes that removal of the legend could result in or facilitate transfers of securities in violation of applicable law.

4.	Issuance and Subscription.

4.1.

In consideration of the FEAC Shareholder’s performance of its obligations described herein, FEAC (or after the Assumption, Newco) agrees to issue and sell and the FEAC Shareholder agrees to subscribe for, on the Closing Date following the Can Merger Sub Share Sale and contingent upon the completion of each element of the Transactions (other than those Transactions that are scheduled to be completed following the Amalgamation Closing), including the substantially concurrent occurrence of the Amalgamation Closing, an additional [•] FEAC Class A Shares (or after the Assumption, Newco Shares, the “Additional Shares”) and [•] FEAC warrants (which shall be on terms substantially similar to the terms of the FEAC Public Warrants, the “FEAC PIPE Warrants”) or after the Assumption, warrants of Newco (which shall be on terms substantially similar to the FEAC PIPE Warrants, as adjusted for a Canadian public company, the “Newco Warrants” and, together with the Additional Shares, the “Additional Securities”), in each case on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the Additional Securities will be issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement.

4.2.

The consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Section 4 shall occur on the Closing Date, subject to the completion of each element of the Transactions (other than those Transactions that are scheduled to be completed following the Amalgamation Closing), including the substantially concurrent occurrence of the Amalgamation Closing. Upon written notice from (or on behalf of) FEAC to the FEAC Shareholder (the “Closing Notice”) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date that FEAC reasonably expects all conditions to the Amalgamation Closing to be satisfied (the “Expected Closing Date”), the FEAC Shareholder shall deliver to FEAC no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Expected Closing Date any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for FEAC (or, following the Assumption, Newco) to issue the Additional Securities including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such Additional Securities are to be issued, and if applicable, a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or the applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, following and subject to the Assumption, Newco shall issue to the FEAC Shareholder (or the funds and accounts designated by the FEAC Shareholder if so designated by the FEAC Shareholder, or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) or to a custodian designated by the FEAC Shareholder, as applicable, the Additional Securities, net of Additional Securities withheld by Newco in respect of Canadian withholding tax and in respect of any additional expenses or costs reasonably expected to be incurred by Newco in connection with the obligation to pay such Canadian withholding tax (including any fees paid to any agent to sell such withheld Additional Securities), free and clear of any liens or other restrictions whatsoever (other than those arising under state or federal securities laws or Canadian securities laws), which Additional Securities, unless otherwise determined by FEAC (or following the Assumption, Newco), shall be uncertificated, with record

ownership reflected only in the register of shareholders of Newco and shall provide evidence of such issuance from Newco’s transfer agent showing the FEAC Shareholder as the owner of the Additional Securities on and as of the Closing Date within two (2) Business Days of the Closing Date. If the Transactions (other than those Transactions that are scheduled to be completed following the Amalgamation Closing) are not consummated within two (2) Business Days after the Expected Closing Date, any Additional Securities that had been issued shall be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Newco shall be entitled to take such actions as are reasonably necessary to deduct and withhold (or cause to be deducted and withheld) any shares or other securities otherwise deliverable to the FEAC Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement on account, and in satisfaction of, any Taxes (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), and other amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Tax Law (each as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) in respect of the consideration payable to the FEAC Shareholder hereunder as well as any additional expenses or costs incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by Newco in connection with the obligation to pay any such Taxes (including any fees paid to any agent to sell such withheld Additional Securities). Newco is thus hereby authorized to retain, sell, and/or otherwise dispose of such shares or other securities otherwise deliverable to the FEAC Shareholder as are necessary to enable Newco to comply with such deduction and withholding requirement. The Parties shall cooperate reasonably and in good faith to consider any further arrangements that will enable Newco to satisfy its deduction and withholding obligations under applicable Tax Law in respect of the consideration payable to the FEAC Shareholder under this Agreement in a manner that is most commercially efficient and expedient for each Party.

4.3.

The obligations of FEAC (or, following the Assumption, Newco) pursuant to this Section 4 shall be subject to the satisfaction, or valid waiver by FEAC, of the following conditions: (i) the FEAC Shareholder shall have fully complied with, performed and satisfied its obligations set out in Sections 1-3 hereof, and shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all other covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Closing Date, (ii) the completion of each element of the Transactions (other than those Transactions that are scheduled to be completed following the Amalgamation Closing), including the substantially concurrent occurrence of the Amalgamation Closing, and (iii) all representations and warranties of the FEAC Shareholder contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) at and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties made as of a specific date, which shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) as of such date).

4.4.

The Additional Securities, and the shares underlying the FEAC PIPE Warrants or the Newco Warrants, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be “Registrable Securities” as such term is defined in, and for all purposes under, the form of Subscription Agreement attached to the Business Combination Agreement.

such account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to any distribution of the Additional Securities in any manner that would violate the securities laws of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction and (iv) is not acquiring the Additional Securities with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States or any other jurisdiction (and shall provide the requested information on Schedule I following the signature page hereto). The FEAC Shareholder has determined based on its own independent review and such professional advice as it deems appropriate that acquiring the Additional Securities and its participation in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (i) are fully consistent with its financial needs, objectives and condition, and (ii) comply and are fully consistent with all investment policies, guidelines and other restrictions applicable to it (if any). The FEAC Shareholder is not an entity formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Additional Securities. The FEAC Shareholder understands that the transfer of the Additional Securities meets (i) the exemptions from filing under FINRA Rule 5123(b)(1)(A) and (C) or (J) and (ii) the institutional customer exemption under FINRA Rule 2111(b).

(e)

The FEAC Shareholder understands that the Additional Securities are being transferred in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act, that the transfer to the FEAC Shareholder is being made in reliance on a private placement exemption from registration under the Securities Act, and that the Additional Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction.

The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges that the Additional Securities will not be immediately eligible for offer, resale, transfer, pledge or disposition pursuant to Rule 144 until at least one year from the filing by FEAC of the “Form 10 information” after the Closing Date and that the provisions of Rule 144(i) will generally apply to the Additional Securities. The FEAC Shareholder understands and agrees that the Additional Securities will be subject to the foregoing restrictions and, as a result, the FEAC Shareholder may not be able to readily resell the Additional Securities and may be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Additional Securities for an indefinite period of time. The FEAC Shareholder understands that it has been advised to consult independent legal counsel prior to making any transfer of any of the Additional Securities. The FEAC Shareholder has determined based on its own independent review and such professional advice as it deems appropriate that the Additional Securities are a suitable investment for the FEAC Shareholder, notwithstanding the substantial risks inherent in investing in or holding the Additional Securities, and that the FEAC Shareholder is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of the FEAC Shareholder’s investment. The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.

(f)

The FEAC Shareholder understands and agrees that the FEAC Shareholder is acquiring the Additional Securities directly from FEAC (or, after the Assumption, Newco). The FEAC Shareholder further acknowledges that there have been no representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made to the FEAC Shareholder by Sponsor, FEAC, Newco, enGene or any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives, expressly or by implication, other than, in the case of Sponsor only, those representations, warranties, covenants and agreements expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(g)

(i)

If the FEAC Shareholder is or is acting on behalf of a Plan, the FEAC Shareholder represents and warrants that none of FEAC, Newco, enGene or any of their respective affiliates (the “Transaction Parties”) has acted as the Plan’s fiduciary, or has been relied on for advice, with respect to its decision to acquire and hold the Additional Securities, and none of the Transaction Parties shall at any time be relied upon as the Plan’s fiduciary with respect to any decision to acquire, continue to hold or transfer the Additional Securities.

(j)

The FEAC Shareholder became aware of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement solely by means of direct contact between the FEAC Shareholder or one of its representatives, on the one hand, and FEAC and Newco or their representatives, on the other hand, as a result of a pre-existing relationship between the FEAC and one of the FEAC Shareholder’s representatives. The FEAC Shareholder did not become aware of the transfer of the Additional Securities, nor were the Additional Securities transferred to the FEAC Shareholder, by any general solicitation or general advertising. The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges that the Additional Securities were not transferred by any form of general solicitation or general advertising, including methods described in section 502(c) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

(k)

The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the ownership of the Additional Securities, including those set forth in the investor presentation provided by FEAC (as amended and supplemented as of the date hereof) and in each form, report, statement, schedule, prospectus, proxy, registration statement and other documents filed by FEAC with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The FEAC Shareholder is able to fend for itself in the transactions contemplated herein, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Additional Securities, has the ability at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risks of its prospective investment and can afford the complete loss of such investment, and the FEAC Shareholder has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as the FEAC Shareholder has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision. The FEAC Shareholder, alone, or together with any professional advisor(s), has analyzed and considered the risks of an investment in the Additional Securities and determined that the Additional Securities are a suitable investment. The FEAC Shareholder further acknowledges that the FEAC Shareholder shall be responsible for any of the FEAC Shareholder’s tax liabilities that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that neither, FEAC or Newco, nor any of their respective agents or affiliates, have provided any tax advice or any other representation or guarantee, whether written or oral, regarding the tax consequences of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(l)

The FEAC Shareholder understands and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the transfer of the Additional Securities or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of an investment in the Additional Securities and the foregoing authorities have not confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of any representation (and any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense).

The FEAC Shareholder represents and warrants that none of the FEAC Shareholder or any of its officers, directors, managers, managing members, general partners or any other person acting in a similar capacity or carrying out a similar function on its behalf is a. a person or entity named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or in any Executive Order issued by the President of the United States and administered by OFAC or any similar list of sanctioned persons administered by the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Canada, His Majesty’s Treasury (“HMT”), any individual European Union member state or the United Kingdom or any other relevant sanctions authority (collectively, “Sanctions Lists”) or a person or entity designated by any OFAC sanctions program, b. directly or indirectly 50% or more owned or otherwise controlled by, or acting on behalf of, one or more persons on a Sanctions List, c. organized, incorporated, established, located or resident in, a country or territory that is the target of country-wide or territory-wide economic or trade sanctions (currently Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, the Crimea region of Ukraine, the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic, the so-called Luhansk People’s Republic and any other Covered Region of Ukraine identified pursuant to Executive Order 14065, and non-government controlled areas of the Kherson and Zaporizhia region of Ukraine), or d. a non-U.S. shell bank or providing banking services indirectly to a non-U.S. shell bank. The representations, warranties and undertakings in this Section 5.3(m) will not apply to any party hereto to which Council Regulation (EC) No. 2271/96, as amended (the “Blocking Regulation”) applies, if and to the extent that such representation, warranty or undertaking is or would be invalid or unenforceable by reason of breach of any provision of the Blocking Regulation (or any law or regulation implementing such Blocking Regulation or any similar measure in any member state of the European Union or the United Kingdom). If the FEAC Shareholder is a financial institution subject to the Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. Section 5311 et seq.), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), the FEAC Shareholder represents that it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. The FEAC Shareholder also represents that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with sanctions programs administered by OFAC, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Canada, HMT, any European Union member state and the United Kingdom, including for the screening of its investors against the Sanctions Lists and the OFAC sanctions programs. The FEAC Shareholder further represents and warrants that, to the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by the FEAC Shareholder and used to purchase the Additional Securities were legally derived.

(n)

Except as expressly disclosed in a Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G (or amendments thereto) filed by the FEAC Shareholder with the Commission with respect to the beneficial ownership of FEAC’s securities, the FEAC Shareholder is not currently (and at all times through the Closing Date will refrain from being or becoming) a member of a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision) acting for the purpose of acquiring, holding or disposing of equity securities of FEAC or Newco, as applicable (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act).

(o)

No broker, finder or other financial consultant has acted on behalf of the FEAC Shareholder in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in such a way as to create any liability on FEAC or Newco.

(p)

The FEAC Shareholder agrees that, from the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date or the earlier termination of this Agreement, none of the FEAC Shareholder, its controlled affiliates, or any person or entity acting on behalf of the FEAC Shareholder or any of its controlled affiliates or pursuant to any understanding with the FEAC Shareholder or any of its controlled affiliates will engage in any Short Sales with respect to securities of FEAC or Newco, as applicable. For the purposes hereof, “Short Sales” shall include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges (other than pledges in the ordinary course of business as part of prime brokerage arrangements), forward sale contracts, options, puts,

calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), including through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) nothing herein shall prohibit any entities under common management or that share an investment advisor with the FEAC Shareholder (including the FEAC Shareholder’s controlled affiliates and/or affiliates) that have no knowledge of this Agreement or of the FEAC Shareholder’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby from entering into any Short Sales and (b) in the case the FEAC Shareholder is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of the FEAC Shareholder’s assets, this Section 5.3(p) shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to acquire the Additional Securities covered by this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 5.3(p) shall not apply to (i) any sale (including the exercise of any redemption right) of securities of FEAC or Newco, as applicable (A) held by the FEAC Shareholder, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of the FEAC Shareholder or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the execution of this Agreement or (B) purchased by the FEAC Shareholder, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of the FEAC Shareholder or any of its controlled affiliates in an open market transaction after the execution of this Agreement or (ii) ordinary course, non-speculative hedging transactions.

(q)

The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges that it is aware that in connection with, and immediately upon completion of, the Cayman Merger, each FEAC Class A Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Cayman Merger shall be exchanged for one Newco Share. The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges that the above will be effected as part of the Transactions without any further consent, vote, or approvals from the FEAC Shareholder, and to the extent that the FEAC Shareholder may have any such rights under Cayman Islands law, Canadian law or otherwise, the FEAC Shareholder effectively forfeits such rights hereby.

(r)

The FEAC Shareholder and the beneficial subscriber, if any, acknowledges that FEAC (or following the Assumption, Newco) may in the future be required by law to disclose the FEAC Shareholder’s or beneficial subscriber’s name and other information relating to this Agreement and the FEAC Shareholder’s subscription hereunder, on a confidential basis, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada).

(s)

The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that the sale and delivery of the Additional Securities is subject to applicable requirements under the securities laws and regulations of the provinces and territories of Canada (“Canadian Securities Laws”) and is conditional upon such sale being exempt from the requirements of Canadian Securities Laws of the province or territory in which it resides or may be deemed to reside as to the filing and delivery of a prospectus and that the Additional Securities have not been qualified under a prospectus under Canadian Securities Laws. The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that FEAC and ▇▇▇▇▇ may rely on the prospectus exemption available in respect of the transactions hereunder under Section 2.11 (Business combination and reorganization) of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exempt Distributions, or such other exemption or exemption ruling as it determines, upon the advice of counsel, to be advisable, in respect of the issuance of the Additional Securities. The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges that FEAC and Newco, as of the date hereof, are not “reporting issuers” in any jurisdiction in Canada, that the Additional Securities are subject to statutory resale restrictions under applicable Canadian Securities Laws of the province or territory in which the FEAC Shareholder resides or may be deemed to reside, which resale restrictions may apply outside of Canada, and the FEAC Shareholder covenants that it will not resell the Additional Securities except in compliance with such laws.

(t)

The FEAC Shareholder is eligible to acquire the Additional Securities pursuant to an exemption from the registration and prospectus requirements of Canadian Securities Laws.

(u)

The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that:

the FEAC Shareholder is not entitled, and will not take any action to acquire any entitlement, to vote, consent or otherwise approve in respect of the Transactions, whether arising under this Agreement, in respect of the right to acquire the Additional Securities, or otherwise, and notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that it is so entitled to vote, consent or otherwise

approve, shall exercise such entitlement to vote, consent or otherwise right of approval in favour of the approval, consent, ratification and adoption of any resolution in respect of the Transactions (and any other matters or actions necessary for the consummation of the Transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement), including without limitation at any meeting of securityholders of FEAC, Newco or any other person or entity (including in connection with any separate vote of any sub-group of securityholders of FEAC, Newco or any other person or entity that may be required to be held and of which sub-group the FEAC Shareholder forms part) called to vote upon the Transactions or at any adjournment or postponement thereof or in any other circumstances upon which a vote, consent or other approval (including written consent in lieu of a meeting) with respect to the Transactions is sought;

the FEAC Shareholder shall not take any other action of any kind which would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay the consummation of any of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement; and

the FEAC Shareholder waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any and all rights of appraisal, rights of dissent or similar rights that the FEAC Shareholder may have or acquire with respect to any resolution in respect of the Transactions or any other matters or actions necessary for the consummation of the Transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, and will not exercise any such right with respect to any such resolution which is waived hereby.

Newco Assumption of Obligations. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof applicable to FEAC’s obligations hereunder, Newco acknowledges that, by virtue of and with effect from the FEAC Reorganization becoming effective, and without further action by FEAC, Newco or the FEAC Shareholder, the Assumption shall become effective so that Newco shall assume all of FEAC’s obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligation to issue the Additional Securities and the obligations of FEAC set forth in Section 4 hereof and FEAC shall assign all of its rights under this Agreement to Newco. By virtue of, and with effect from, the FEAC Reorganization becoming effective, and without further action by FEAC, Newco or the FEAC Shareholder, (i) all surviving rights, covenants, and obligations of FEAC under this Agreement shall be rights, covenants, and obligations of Newco; and (ii) Newco shall be liable for any breach of any representation or warranty by FEAC set forth in this Agreement. The FEAC Shareholder hereby expressly agrees to and acknowledges the Assumption in accordance with the foregoing and the other terms hereof. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, by virtue of, and with effect from, the FEAC Reorganization and the Assumption becoming effective, all references herein (i) to FEAC, shall refer to Newco, and (ii) to the Additional Shares and FEAC PIPE Warrants shall refer to Newco Shares and Newco Warrants, respectively, of the corresponding number, rather than FEAC Class A Shares and FEAC PIPE Warrants, respectively.

(c)

This Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part, only by a duly authorized agreement in writing executed by each of the Parties in the same manner as this Agreement and which makes reference to this Agreement. The approval of this Agreement by the stockholders of any of the Parties shall not restrict the ability of the board of directors or managers (or other body performing similar functions) of any of the Parties to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 7 or to cause such Party to enter into an amendment to this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8(c).

(d)

(e)

Each of the Parties irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, provided that if subject matter jurisdiction over the matter that is the subject of the legal proceeding is vested exclusively in the U.S. federal courts, such legal proceeding shall be heard in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (together with the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, “Chosen Courts”), in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement. Each party hereby waives, and shall not assert as a defense in any legal dispute, that (i) such person is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts for any reason, (ii) such legal proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in the Chosen Courts, (iii) such person’s property is exempt or immune from execution, (iv) such legal proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or (v) the venue of such legal proceeding is improper.

FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED.

(f)

In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or any other form of electronic delivery, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

(h)

Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and either delivered personally, emailed or sent by overnight mail via a reputable overnight carrier, or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, and shall be deemed to be given and received (i) when so delivered personally, (ii) when sent, with no mail undeliverable or other rejection notice, if sent by email, or (iii) three (3) Business Days after the date of mailing to the address below or to such other address or addresses as such person may hereafter designate by notice given hereunder:

(i)

In addition to the waiver of Newco pursuant to Section 8.17 of the Business Combination Agreement, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the FEAC Shareholder acknowledges that FEAC has established a trust account containing the proceeds of its initial public offering and from certain private placements (collectively, with interest accrued from time to time thereon, the “Trust Account”). The FEAC Shareholder acknowledges that (i) it has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and (ii) it shall have no right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account, in each case in connection with this Agreement, and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account that it may have in connection with this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8(i) shall (x) serve to limit or prohibit the FEAC Shareholder’s right to pursue a claim against FEAC for legal relief against assets held outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other equitable relief, (y) serve to limit or prohibit any claims that the FEAC Shareholder may have in the future against FEAC’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds) or (z) be deemed to limit the FEAC Shareholder’s right, title, interest or claim to the Trust Account by virtue of the FEAC Shareholder’s record or beneficial ownership of securities of FEAC. In the event the FEAC Shareholder has any Claim against FEAC under this Agreement, the FEAC Shareholder shall pursue such Claim solely against FEAC and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the property or any monies in the Trust Account. The FEAC Shareholder agrees and acknowledges that such waiver is material to this Agreement and has been specifically relied upon by FEAC to induce FEAC to enter into this Agreement and the FEAC Shareholder further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable under applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the terms of this Section 8(i) apply to any money or other assets held outside the Trust Account. In the event the FEAC Shareholder, in connection with this Agreement, commences any action which seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the funds held in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom or any of FEAC’s or Newco’s shareholders, whether in the form of monetary damages or injunctive relief, the FEAC Shareholder shall be obligated to pay to FEAC and Newco all of their legal fees and costs in connection with any such action in the event that FEAC and Newco prevail in such action.

(j)

All representations and warranties made by the parties hereto, and all covenants and other agreements of the parties hereto, in this Agreement shall survive the consummation of the Transactions.

REGISTRATION

Section 2.1 Demand Registration.

2.1.1 Request for Registration. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1.5 and Section 2.4 hereof, at any time and from time to time following the Lock-Up Period applicable to any Holder, (i) Sponsor Holders who hold at least a majority in interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by all Sponsor Holders at such time, or (ii) enGene Holders holding at least a majority in interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by all enGene Holders at such time (such Holders described in clauses (i) and (ii), the “Demanding Holders”) may make a written demand for Registration of all or part of their Registrable Securities

on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not available to be used by the Company at such time, on Form S-1 or another appropriate form permitting Registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by such Demanding Holders), which written demand shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such Registration and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof (such written demand a “Demand Registration”). The Holders making a Demand Registration may request that the registration be made pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (a “Resale Shelf Registration). The Company shall, within five (5) days of the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, notify, in writing, all other Holders of Registrable Securities of such demand, and each such Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration (each such Holder that includes all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration, a “Demand Requesting Holder”) shall so notify the Company, in writing, within five (5) days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. Upon receipt by the Company of any such written notification from a Demand Requesting Holder(s) to the Company, such Demand Requesting Holder(s) shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration and the Company shall effect, as soon thereafter as practicable, the Registration of all Registrable Securities requested by the Demanding Holders and Demand Requesting Holders pursuant to such Demand Registration. Under no circumstances shall the Company be obligated to effect more than two Registrations for the enGene Holders and two Registrations for the Sponsor Holders pursuant to a Demand Registration under this Section 2.1.1.]

2.1.2 Holder Information. The Company’s obligations to include the Registrable Securities held by a Holder in any Registration Statement are contingent upon such Holder furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding the Holder, the securities of the Company held by the Holder and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities, and the Holder shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling shareholder in similar situations.

2.1.3 Effective Registration. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.1.1 above or any other part of this Agreement, a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration shall not count as a Registration unless and until (a) the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration has been declared effective by the Commission and remains effective for not less than 180 days (or such shorter period as shall terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold or withdrawn), or if such Registration Statement relates to an Underwritten Offering, such longer period as, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriter or Underwriters, a Prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of Registrable Securities by an Underwriter or dealer and (b) the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, further, however, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, an offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration is subsequently interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission, federal or state court or any other governmental agency, the Registration Statement with respect to such Registration shall be deemed not to have been declared effective for purposes of counting Registrations under Section 2.1.1 above unless and until (i) such stop

order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Demand Registration thereafter affirmatively elect to continue with such Registration and accordingly notify the Company in writing, but in no event later than five (5) days, of such election; provided, further, however, that the Company shall not be obligated or required to file another Registration Statement until the Registration Statement that has been previously filed with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration becomes effective or has been terminated.

2.1.4 Underwritten Offering. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1.5 and Section 2.4 hereof, if a Demanding Holder advises the Company as part of their Demand Registration that the offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering, then the right of such Demanding Holder or Demand Requesting Holder (if any) to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such Underwritten Offering and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering to the extent provided herein. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this Section 2.1.4 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Demanding Holder initiating the Demand Registration, which Underwriter(s) shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company.

2.1.5 Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration, in good faith, advises the Company, the Demanding Holder(s) and the Demand Requesting Holders (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holder(s) and the Demand Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, if any, as to which a Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other shareholders who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holder(s) (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders requested be included in such Underwritten Registration (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Registrable Securities that each Demand Requesting Holding (if any) has requested to be included in such Underwritten Registration (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demand Requesting Holding (if any) has requested to be included in such Underwritten Registration) and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Demand Requesting Holders have requested to be included in such Underwritten Registration that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), Common Shares or other

equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), Common Shares or other equity securities of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register in a Registration pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.1.6 Demand Registration Withdrawal. A Holder shall have the right to withdraw from a Registration pursuant to such Demand Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter(s) (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Registration (i) in the case of an Underwritten Offering, prior to the launch of the roadshow for the offering, and (ii) otherwise, prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Registration of their Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration. If a Demanding Holder initiating a Demand Registration or a majority-in-interest of the Demand Requesting Holders (if any) withdraws from a proposed offering pursuant to this Section 2.1.6, then such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration prior to its withdrawal under this Section 2.1.6.

Section 2.2 Piggyback Registration.

2.2.1 Piggyback Rights. If at any time or from time to time following the Lock-Up Period applicable to any Holder hereof the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into equity securities, for its own account or for the account of shareholders of the Company, other than a Registration Statement (i) filed pursuant to Section 2.1, (ii) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (iii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing shareholders, (iv) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company, (v) to register the offering of securities in connection with a transaction to be registered on Form S-4 or (vi) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter(s), if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter(s) of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested by a Holder pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 (to the extent that such Holder is not then subject to a Lock-Up Period) to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this Section 2.2.1 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company.

2.2.2 Reduction of Piggyback Registration. If the managing Underwriter(s) in an Underwritten Registration that is to be a Piggyback Registration, in good faith, advises the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing that the dollar amount or number of Common Shares that the Company desires to sell, taken together with (a) Common Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, (b) the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, and (c) Common Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:

(i) If the Registration is undertaken for the Company’s account, the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, Common Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing section (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.2.1 hereof, pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has so requested, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), Common Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of the Company, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and

(ii) If the Registration is pursuant to a request by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, Common Shares or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing section (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.2.1, pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested to be included in such Underwritten Registration, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), Common Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), Common Shares or other equity securities for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.2.3 Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration prior to (i) in the case of an Underwritten Offering, the date on which the roadshow for the offering is launched, and (ii) otherwise, the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Piggyback Registration. the Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this Section 2.2.3.

2.2.4 Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights.

2.3.1 Registration Statement Covering Resale of Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the right of any Holder to request a Resale Shelf Registration pursuant to Section 2.1.1, the Company shall prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the Commission as soon as practicable (but in any case no later than 15 calendar days after the Effective Date) a Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act or any successor thereto registering the resale from time to time by Holders of all of the Registrable Securities held by the Holders (the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”). The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable after filing, but no later than the earlier of (i) sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing (or ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” the Registration Statement) and (ii) fifteen (15) Business Days after the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review. The Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall be filed on any then applicable form. If the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is initially filed on Form S-1 and thereafter the Company becomes eligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, cause such Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be amended, or shall

file a new replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement, such that the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is on Form S-3. If any Resale Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2.3.1 is filed on Form S-3 and thereafter the Company becomes ineligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales, the Company shall promptly notify the Holders of such ineligibility and use its best efforts to file a shelf registration on an appropriate form as promptly as practicable to replace the shelf registration statement on Form S-3 and have such replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement declared effective as promptly as practicable and to cause such replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Resale Shelf Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Resale Shelf Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities; provided, however, that at any time the Company once again becomes eligible to use Form S-3, the Company shall cause such replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be amended, or shall file a new replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement, such that the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is once again on Form S-3. Once effective, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement that is required to be filed pursuant to this Section 2.3.1 and Prospectus included therein continuously effective and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available at all times until the earlier of (i) the third anniversary of the Closing, and (ii) as to any particular Holder, the date on which the Holder ceases to hold any Registrable Securities. The Registration Statement filed with the Commission pursuant to this Section 2.3.1 shall contain a Prospectus in such form as to permit any Holder to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect) at any time beginning on the effective date for such Registration Statement (subject to the Lock-Up Period applicable to such Holder, which shall control), and shall provide that such Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, Holders. The Resale Shelf Registration Statement filed hereunder may also register Common Shares other than Registrable Securities, including shares sold by the Company in one or more PIPE transactions and shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants.

2.3.2 Notification and Distribution of Materials. The Company shall notify the Holders in writing of the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as soon as practicable, and in any event within three (3) Business Days after the Resale Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective (which may be accomplished by the issuance of a press release with such information), and shall furnish to any Holder, without charge, at its request, such number of copies of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (including any amendments, supplements and exhibits), the Prospectus contained therein (including each preliminary prospectus and all related amendments and supplements) and any documents incorporated by reference in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or such other documents as the Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities in the manner described in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (to the extent any of such documents are not available on ▇▇▇▇▇).

2.3.3 SEC Cutback. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2.3, in the event the Commission informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the Holders thereof and use its reasonable best efforts to file amendments to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”) on Form S-3, or if Form S-3 is not then available to the Company for such registration statement, on such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available written or oral guidance, comments, requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the “SEC Guidance”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to further limit its Registrable Securities to be included on the Registration Statement, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders, subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders must be reduced first based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders. In the event the Company amends the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to the Company or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement.

2.3.4 Underwritten Shelf Takedown. At any time and from time to time after a Resale Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, to the extent such Resale Shelf Registration may be used for an underwritten offering, any of the Demanding Holders may request to sell all or any portion of the Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”); provided, however, that the Company shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include securities with a total offering price (including piggyback securities and before deduction of underwriting discounts) reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $10,000,000. All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to the Company, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Within five (5) days of receipt of this notice, the Company must notify all of the Holders of Registrable Securities of the Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Within five (5) days of delivery of this notice, Holders of Registrable Securities must notify the Company if they wish to participate in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown. The Company shall include in any Underwritten Shelf Takedown the securities requested to be included by any Holder within such specified timeframe (each a “Takedown Requesting Holder”). All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Shelf Takedown under this Section 2.3.4 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Takedown Requesting Holder (who must be reasonably acceptable to the Company).

2.3.5 Reduction of Underwritten Shelf Takedown. If the managing Underwriter(s) in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good faith, advise the Company and the Takedown Requesting Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Takedown Requesting Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders, on a Pro Rata basis, (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing section (i), the Registrable Securities of the Takedown Requesting Holders, on a Pro Rata basis, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), Common Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.3.6 Registrations effected by the Company pursuant to Section 2.3.1 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.1.

2.3.7 Under no circumstances shall the Company be obligated to effect more than three Underwritten Shelf Takedowns for the enGene Holders and three Underwritten Shelf Takedowns for the Sponsor Holders pursuant to Section 2.3.4].

Section 2.4 Restrictions on Registration Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not be obligated to (but may, at its sole option) file a Registration Statement pursuant to a Demand Registration request made under Section 2.1 during the period starting with the date thirty (30) days prior to Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date ninety (90) days after the effective date of, a Company initiated Registration and provided that Company has delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1.1 and that New Holdco continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Registration Statement to become effective.

Section 2.5 Other Registration Rights. The Company represents that, as of the date hereof and other than as set forth herein, no Person has the right to request or require it to register any equity securities issued by it, other than (i) such registration rights granted pursuant to the PIPE Financing, the Convertible Bridge Financing and the Non-Redemption Agreement, each as defined in the Business Combination Agreement, and (ii) such registration rights as applicable under the terms of the Warrants. The Company will not grant any Person any registration rights with respect to the equity of the Company that are prior in right or in conflict or inconsistent with the rights of the Holders as set forth in this Article II in any material respect (it being understood that this shall not preclude the grant of additional demand and piggyback registration rights in and of themselves so long as such rights are not prior in right to the rights under this Agreement).

ARTICLE III

COMPANY PROCEDURES

Section 3.1 General Procedures. If at any time on or after the Effective Time the Company is required to effect the Registration of Registrable Securities, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect such Registration to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible:

3.1.2 prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the Prospectus, as may be reasonably requested by the Holders or any Underwriter of Registrable Securities or as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus or are no longer outstanding;

3.1.3 prior to filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the Underwriter(s), if any, and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration, and such Holders’ legal counsel, copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus), and such other documents as the Underwriters and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration or the legal counsel for any such Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holders; provided, that the Company will not have any obligation to provide any document pursuant to this clause that is available on the Commission’s ▇▇▇▇▇ system;

3.1.4 prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its reasonable best efforts to: (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then otherwise so subject;

3.1.5 cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

3.1.6 provide a transfer agent or warrant agent, as applicable, and registrar for all such Registrable Securities no later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

3.1.7 advise each seller of such Registrable Securities, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued;

3.1.8 advise each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, promptly after the Company receives notice thereof, of the time when such registration statement has been declared effective or a supplement to any Prospectus forming a part of such registration statement has been filed (provided that any such notice may be made by the issuance of a press release including such information);

3.1.9 at least five (5) days prior to the filing of any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or Prospectus, furnish a copy thereof to each seller of such Registrable Securities or its counsel; provided, that the Company will not have any obligation to provide any document pursuant to this clause that is or will become available on the Commission’s ▇▇▇▇▇ system;

3.1.10 notify the Holders at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes a Misstatement, and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section 3.4 hereof;

3.1.11 permit a representative of the Holders, the Underwriter(s), if any, and any attorney or accountant retained by such Holders or Underwriter(s) to participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative, Underwriter(s), attorney or accountant in connection with the Registration; provided, however, that such representatives or Underwriter(s) enter into a confidentiality agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information;

3.1.12 in the event of an Underwritten Offering, request a customary “comfort” letter from the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, addressed to the Underwriter(s) and in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “comfort” letters as the managing Underwriter(s) may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders and such managing Underwriter;

3.1.13 in the event of an Underwritten Offering, request one or more customary legal opinions of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the Underwriter(s) and “negative assurance letters” covering such matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinions and letters are being given as the Underwriter(s) may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters;

3.1.14 in the event of any Underwritten Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter(s) of such offering;

3.1.15 make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission);

3.1.16 if a Registration, including an Underwritten Offering, use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter(s) in any Underwritten Offering; and

3.1.17 otherwise, in good faith, use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders, in connection with such Registration.

Section 3.2 Registration Expenses. All Registration Expenses shall be borne by the Company. It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders.

Section 3.3 Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offerings. No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

Section 3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. The Company shall promptly notify each of the Holders in writing if a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement and, upon receipt of such written notice from the Company, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until he, she or it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement, provided that the Company hereby covenants promptly to prepare and file any required supplement or amendment correcting any Misstatement promptly after the time of such notice and, if necessary, to request the immediate effectiveness thereof. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement or Prospectus included in any Registration Statement at any time (a) would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, (b) would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, (c) requires the Company to update the financial statements contained in such Registration Statement pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Commission through the filing

of a post-effective amendment which is subject to potential Commission review, or (d) in the good faith judgment of the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company, which judgment shall be documented in writing and provided to the Holders in the form of a written certificate signed by such officer, such filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement would be materially detrimental to the Company. the Company shall have the right to defer the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of any Registration Statement pursuant to (a), (b) or (c) for a period of not more than ninety (90) days in any three hundred and sixty (360)-day period. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities.

Section 3.5 Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, shall expend commercially reasonable efforts to (i) file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements), and (ii) take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Common Shares held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), including using commercially reasonable efforts to cause any legal opinions to be delivered.

ARTICLE IV

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

Section 4.1 Indemnification.

4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and agents and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriter(s), their officers and directors and each person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) such Underwriter(s) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) the Company against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriter(s), their officers, directors and each person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) such Underwriter(s) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.

4.1.3 Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided, however, that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or Affiliate of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution (pursuant to Section 4.1.5) to such party in the event the Company’s or such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall to the extent permitted by law contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this Section 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 4.1.2, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

ARTICLE V

LOCK-UP

Section 5.1 Lock-Up.

5.1.1 Each Holder agrees, and the Company agrees and shall cause each director and officer of the Company to agree, that, in connection with each Registration or sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.1, Section 2.2 or Section 2.3 conducted as an Underwritten Offering, if requested, to become bound by and to execute and deliver a customary lock-up agreement with the underwriter(s) of such Underwritten Offering restricting such applicable person or entity’s right to (a) Transfer, directly or indirectly, any equity securities of the Company held by such person or entity or (b) enter into any swap or other arrangement that Transfers to another any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities during the period commencing on the date of the final Prospectus relating to the Underwritten Offering and ending on the date specified by the underwriters (such period not to exceed ninety (90) days). The terms of such lock-up agreements shall be negotiated among the applicable Holders requested to enter into lock-up agreements in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Company and the underwriters and shall include customary exclusions from the restrictions on Transfer set forth therein, including that such restrictions on the applicable Holders shall be conditioned upon all officers and directors of the Company, as well as all such applicable Holders, being subject to the same restrictions; provided, however, to the extent any Holder is granted a release or waiver from the restrictions contained in this Section 5.1. and in such Holder’s lock-up

agreement prior to the expiration of the period set forth in such Holder’s lock-up agreement, then all applicable Holders shall be automatically granted a release or waiver from the restrictions contained in this Section 5.1 and the applicable lock-up agreements to which they are party to the same extent, on substantially the same terms as and on a pro rata basis with, the Holder to which such release or waiver is granted. The provisions of this Section 5.1 shall not apply to any Holder that then holds less than one percent (1%) of then total issued and outstanding Common Shares.

ARTICLE VI

Section 7.14 Corporate Opportunities. It is hereby acknowledged that the Sponsor Holders and their Affiliates participate in, and own and will own substantial equity interests in other entities (existing and future) that participate in, similar industries to the Company (the “Portfolio Companies”) and may make investments and enter into advisory service agreements and other agreements from time to time with such Portfolio Companies. Any individual who serves as a director, officer, employee, agent, partner, shareholder, member or manager of a Sponsor Holder may also serve as a director, officer, employee, agent, partner, shareholder or member of (i) such Sponsor Holder’s Affiliate or Portfolio Company or (ii) a different Sponsor Holder or such different Sponsor Holder’s Affiliate or Portfolio Company and, at any given time, such Sponsor Holder, its Affiliates or Portfolio Companies may be in direct or indirect competition with the Company and/or its Affiliates. The Company waives, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, the application of the doctrine of corporate opportunity (or any analogous doctrine) with respect to any Sponsor Holders, their Affiliates or Portfolio Companies or any of their directors (subject to compliance by such director with his or her fiduciary duties as a director of the Company (as such, a “Sponsor Director”) and Laws applicable to the Company or its directors). As a result of such waiver, none of Sponsor Holders, their Affiliates or Portfolio Companies, nor any of their directors (subject to compliance by a Sponsor Director with his or her fiduciary duties as a director of the Company) and Laws applicable to the Company or its directors), shall have any obligation to refrain from: (A) engaging in or managing the same or similar activities or lines of business as the Company or any of its Affiliates or developing or marketing any products or services that compete (directly or indirectly) with those of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (B) acquiring

assets in the same or similar areas of operation and lines of business of the Company; (C) investing in, owning or disposing of any (public or private) interest in any person engaged in the same or similar activities or lines of business as, or otherwise in competition with, the Company or any of its Affiliates (including a Sponsor Holder or their Affiliates, a “Competing Person”); (D) developing a business relationship with any Competing Person; or (E) entering into any agreement to provide any service(s) to any Competing Person or acting as director, officer, employee, agent, partner, shareholder, member, manager or advisor to, or other principal of, any Competing Person, regardless (in the case of each of clauses (A) through (E)) of whether such activities are in direct or indirect competition with the business or activities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (the activities described in clauses (A) through (D) are referred to herein as “Specified Activities”). To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company hereby renounces (for itself and on behalf of its subsidiaries) any interest or expectancy in, or in being notified of or offered an opportunity to participate in, any Specified Activity that may be presented to or become known to Sponsor, its Affiliates or Portfolio Companies or any Sponsor Director, other than any such Specified Activity that was learned, discovered or sourced solely in the course of a Sponsor Director acting in such Sponsor Director’s capacity as a director of the Company or any of its Affiliates.

This FEAC Voting Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of May 16, 2023, by and among Forbion European Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“FEAC”), Forbion Growth Sponsor FEAC I B.V., a Dutch private limited liability company (“Sponsor”), Forbion Growth Opportunities Fund I Cooperatief U.A., a cooperative association (coöperatie) with exempted liability incorporated in the Netherlands (“FGOF”), each of the directors and officers of FEAC (together with Sponsor and FGOF, the “Voting Parties” and each a “Voting Party”), enGene Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of Canada (“enGene”) and enGene Holdings Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of Canada that intends to continue to a company governed by the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, FEAC, enGene, the Company and certain other persons party thereto are entering into a Business Combination Agreement (as the same may be amended or modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, among other things, FEAC, enGene, the Company and the other parties thereto agreed to effect the Transactions set forth therein.

1. Definitions. As used herein, the term “Voting Shares” shall mean, taken together, all securities of FEAC beneficially owned (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, excluding shares of stock underlying unexercised options or warrants, but including any shares of stock acquired upon exercise of such options or warrants) (“Beneficially Owned” or “Beneficial Ownership”) by any Voting Party, including any and all securities of FEAC acquired and held in such capacity subsequent to the date hereof. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Business Combination Agreement.

2. Representations and Warranties of the Voting Parties. Each Voting Party on its own behalf hereby represents and warrants to each of enGene and the Company, severally and not jointly, with respect to such Voting Party and such Voting Party’s Beneficial Ownership of its Voting Shares set forth on Annex A as follows:

(a) Authority. Voting Party has all requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement, to perform fully Voting Party’s obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Voting Party. This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Voting Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by principles governing the availability of equitable remedies.

(d) Ownership of Shares. Except pursuant to the arrangements referred to in the following sentence, each Voting Party (i) Beneficially Owns its Voting Shares free and clear of all Liens (other than transfer restrictions under applicable securities laws) and (ii) has the sole power to vote or cause to be voted its Voting Shares. Except pursuant hereto and pursuant to (A) that certain Letter Agreement, dated as of December 9, 2021 (the “Insider Letter”), by and among FEAC and the Voting Parties other than FGOF, (B) that certain Warrant Agreement, dated as of December 9, 2021, by and between FEAC and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, (C) that certain Registration Rights Agreement dated as of December 9, 2021, by and between FEAC and Sponsor (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), and (D) the Sponsor and Insider Letter, dated as of even date herewith, by and between FEAC, the Company and the Voting Parties (the “Sponsor and Insider Letter”), there are no options, warrants or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character to which Voting Party is a party relating to the pledge, acquisition, disposition, transfer or voting of Voting Shares prior to the consummation of the Transactions and there are no voting trusts or voting agreements with respect to the Voting Shares. As of the date hereof, Voting Party does not Beneficially Own or otherwise have any direct or indirect interest in (i) any Voting Shares, other than the Voting Shares set forth on Annex A or (ii) any options, warrants or other rights to acquire any additional ordinary shares, or vote any ordinary shares, or any other equity interests, of FEAC (“FEAC Shares”) or any security exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into FEAC Shares, other than as set forth on Annex A and except for any Voting Shares underlying any FEAC Private Placement Warrants to be issued by FEAC to a Voting Party as payee under the Working Capital Loan Note and/or any Extension Loan Note following the election by such Voting Party to convert all or part of the outstanding principal amount of the Working Capital Loan Note or any Extension Loan Note in FEAC Private Placement Warrants in connection with the consummation of the Transactions, in each case in accordance with FEAC’s Governing Documents and the Trust Agreement.

3. Agreement to Vote Shares; Further Assurances.

(a) Prior to the earlier of (x) date on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms and (y) the Closing Date (the “Voting Period”), each Voting Party irrevocably agrees that it shall, at any meeting (or in connection with any request for action by written consent) of the shareholders of FEAC at which the matters described in clauses (i) and (ii) below are considered and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, (x) cause the Voting Shares that such Voting Party Beneficially Owns to be counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum, (y) vote or cause to be voted the Voting Shares that such Voting Party Beneficially Owns and (z) execute a written consent or consents if shareholders of FEAC are requested to vote their shares through the execution of an action by written consent, in each case to the extent such Voting Shares are entitled to vote thereon pursuant to FEAC’s Governing Documents: (i) in favor of (A) the Transaction Proposals and (B) any other matter reasonably necessary to the consummation of the Transactions and the other matters contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and considered and voted upon by the shareholders of FEAC; and (ii) against (other than as contemplated by the Transactions) (A) any proposal or offer from any Person (other than enGene or any of its Affiliates) concerning (1) a merger, consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization, share exchange or other business combination transaction involving FEAC, (2) the issuance or acquisition of shares or other equity securities of FEAC, or (3) the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of any significant portion of FEAC’s properties or assets; (B) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant or obligation of FEAC set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, or in any representation or warranty of FEAC set forth in the Business Combination Agreement becoming inaccurate; and (C) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, adversely affect or inhibit the timely consummation of the Transactions or the fulfillment of FEAC’s conditions under the Business Combination Agreement or change in any manner the voting rights of any class of shares of FEAC (including any amendments to the Governing Documents), except as contemplated by this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or the Transactions.

(b) During the term of this Agreement, each Voting Party irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the details of this Agreement being set out in the materials to be submitted to FEAC’s shareholders or otherwise to be prepared in connection with the FEAC Shareholders Meeting and for the form of this Agreement to be filed with the SEC and any other Governmental Entity, in connection with the Transactions.

5. Certain Covenants of Voting Party; Transfer and Encumbrance. During the Voting Period, each Voting Party will not, in each case other than as contemplated by the Transactions, (a) directly or indirectly, transfer (including by operation of law), sell, offer, exchange, assign, hedge, swap, convert, pledge or otherwise dispose of or encumber (“Transfer”) any of such Voting Party’s Voting Shares or enter into any contract, option or other agreement with respect to, or consent to, a Transfer of, any of such Voting Party’s Voting Shares or Voting Party’s voting or economic interest therein, (b) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (a), (c) knowingly take any action that would make any representation or warranty of such Voting Party contained herein untrue or inaccurate, or have the effect of preventing or disabling such Voting Party from performing its obligations under this Agreement or (d) take any action, nor permit its Representatives to take any action, to contest, oppose or interfere with the Cayman Merger or to otherwise contest or oppose any of the Transactions before any Governmental Entity, or to solicit proxies or become a participant in a solicitation in opposition to or competition with the FEAC Shareholder Approval or any of the Transactions. Any attempted Transfer of Voting Shares or any interest therein in violation of this Section 5 shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5 shall not prohibit a Transfer of Voting Shares by any Voting Party in compliance with Section 2(a) of the Sponsor and Insider Letter; provided, however, that in each case, the applicable transferees enter into a written joinder to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company and FEAC by which such applicable transferees agree to be bound by this Agreement.

6. Termination of Certain Agreements. Prior to the Closing Date, the Voting Parties shall take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to terminate the Registration Rights Agreement, effective as of and contingent upon the Transactions and the occurrence of the Closing Date, without any liability being imposed on FEAC, the Company or enGene following such termination.

7. Appraisal and Dissenters’ Rights. Each Voting Party hereby (a) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, and agrees not to assert or perfect, any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent (as applicable, or any similar rights) from the Transactions that Voting Party may have by virtue of ownership of the Voting Shares, including any dissenters’ rights under Section 238 of the Cayman Act, and (b) agrees not to commence or participate in any claim, derivative or otherwise, against FEAC, the Company or enGene or the members of their respective Boards of Directors relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Agreement or the Business Combination Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions, including any claim (i) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or (ii) alleging a breach of any fiduciary duty of the Board of Directors of FEAC, the Company or enGene in connection with this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or the Transactions.

8. Redemption Rights. During the Voting Period, if FEAC seeks shareholder approval for the Transactions, each Voting Party shall not (a) exercise any right to redeem any Voting Shares Beneficially Owned as of the date hereof or acquired and held in such capacity subsequent to the date hereof or (b) make any public statements with the intent to encourage any of FEAC’s shareholders to exercise any right to redeem any FEAC Class A Shares.

9. Insider Letter. Each party hereto that is a party to the Insider Letter hereby agrees that from the date hereof until the termination of this Agreement, none of them shall, or shall agree to, amend, modify or vary paragraphs 9(c) or 11 of the Insider Letter, except as otherwise expressly provided for by this Agreement and the other agreements entered into concurrently herewith in connection with the Transactions.

10. Additional Matters. Each Voting Party shall, from time to time, (i) execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional or further consents, documents and other instruments as FEAC, enGene or the Company may reasonably request for the purpose of effectively carrying out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Business Combination Agreement and (ii) refrain from exercising any veto right, consent right or similar right (whether under the Governing Documents of FEAC or the Cayman Act) which would impede, disrupt, prevent or otherwise adversely affect the consummation of the Transactions.

11. Termination. This Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the earliest to occur of (a) the Closing Date and (b) the date on which the Business Combination Agreement is terminated for any reason in accordance with its terms. Upon termination of this Agreement, no party shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities under this Agreement; provided, that nothing in this Section 11 shall relieve any party of liability for any breach of this Agreement occurring prior to termination and the provisions of Sections 13 through 16 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

12. No Agreement as Director or Officer. Nothing in this Agreement will limit or affect any actions or omissions taken by a Voting Party (or any Affiliate, securityholder, partner, director, officer or employee of Voting Party) in his, her or its capacity as a director or officer of FEAC. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed to prohibit, limit or restrict a Voting Party (or any Affiliate, partner or employee of Voting Party) from exercising his or her fiduciary duties as an officer or director to FEAC or its Subsidiaries.

13. Specific Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that (a) irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, (b) each party shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof and immediate injunctive relief and other equitable relief to prevent breaches, or threatened breaches, of this Agreement, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy and without bond or other security being required, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, (c) it may be difficult to prove damages with reasonable certainty, that it may be difficult to procure suitable substitute performance, and that injunctive relief and/or specific performance will not cause an undue hardship to the parties, (d) the existence of any other remedy contemplated by this Agreement does not diminish the availability of specific performance of the obligations hereunder or any other injunctive relief, and (e) in the event of any action by any other party for specific performance or injunctive relief, the first party will not assert that a remedy at law or other remedy would be adequate or that specific performance or injunctive relief in respect of such breach or violation should not be available on the grounds that money damages are adequate or any other grounds.

14. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Business Combination Agreement (and the agreements delivered concurrently herewith pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement) together constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements or representations, both written and oral, by or among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

15. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given: (a) on the date established by the sender as having been delivered personally; (b) one (1) Business Day after being sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier guaranteeing overnight delivery; (c) on the date delivered, if delivered by email of a pdf document; or (d) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid.

10.2 Resolution Instead of Annual General Meeting. If all the shareholders who are entitled to vote at an annual general meeting consent by a unanimous resolution under the Business Corporations Act to all of the business that is required to be transacted at that annual general meeting, the annual general meeting is deemed to have been held on the date of the unanimous resolution.

(a)

if and for so long as the Company is a public company, 21 days;

(b)

otherwise, 10 days.

10.5 Record Date for Notice. The directors may set a date as the record date for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of any meeting of shareholders. The record date must not precede the date on which the meeting is to be held by more than two months or, in the case of a general meeting requisitioned by shareholders under the Business Corporations Act, by more than four months.

The directors may determine that a meeting of shareholders shall be held entirely by means of telephonic, electronic or other communication facilities that permit all participants to participate in the meeting, whether by telephone, electronic or other communications medium. A meeting of shareholders may also be held at which some, but not necessarily all, persons entitled to attend may participate by means of such communications facilities, if the directors determine to make them available.

in any other case, one-third of the number of the current directors who were elected or appointed as directors other than under this Article 14.10.

Except as provided otherwise under these Articles or the Business Corporations Act, any director so appointed shall cease to hold office at the end of a term expiring on the first annual general meeting of the Company following the director’s appointment but is eligible for re-election or re-appointment for a subsequent three-year term.

directors need be given to such director and all meetings of the directors so held are deemed not to be improperly called or constituted by reason of notice not having been given to such director.

Such resolution may be in two or more counterparts which together are deemed to constitute one resolution in writing. A resolution passed in that manner is effective on the date stated in the resolution or on the latest date stated on any counterpart.

21.5 Manner of Paying Dividend. A resolution declaring a dividend may direct payment of the dividend wholly or partly in money or by the distribution of specific assets or of fully paid shares or of bonds, debentures or other securities of the Company or any other corporation, or in any one or more of those ways.

- 29 -

21.6 Settlement of Difficulties. If any difficulty arises in regard to a distribution under Article 21.5, the directors may settle the difficulty as they deem advisable, and, in particular, may:

(a)

set the value for distribution of specific assets;

determine that cash payments in substitution for all or any part of the specific assets to which any shareholders are entitled may be made to any shareholders on the basis of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of all parties; and

(c)

The sending of the cheque or the sending of the payment by electronic means or the sending of the payment by a method determined by the directors in an amount equal to the dividend or other distribution to be paid less any tax that the Company is required to withhold will satisfy and discharge the liability for the payment, unless payment is not made upon presentation, if applicable, or the amount of tax so deducted is not paid to the appropriate taxing authority.

-8-

(b) Source of Shares; Share Counting. Shares issued or transferred under the Plan may be authorized but unissued Common Shares or reacquired Common Shares, including shares purchased by the Company on the open market for purposes of the Plan. If and to the extent Options or SARs granted under the Plan (including options or SARs granted under the Prior Plan, if any), expire or are canceled, forfeited, exchanged or surrendered without having been exercised, or if any Share Awards, Share Units or Other Share-Based Awards (including options or SARs granted under the Prior Plan, if any) are forfeited, terminated or otherwise not paid in full, the shares subject to such Grants shall again be available for purposes of the Plan. If Common Shares otherwise issuable under the Plan are surrendered in payment of the Exercise Price of an Option, then the number of Common Shares available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced only by the net number of shares actually issued by the Company upon such exercise and not by the gross number of shares as to which such Option is exercised. Upon the exercise of any SAR under the Plan, the number of Common Shares available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced by only by the net number of shares actually issued by the Company upon such exercise. If Common Shares otherwise issuable under the Plan are withheld by the Company in satisfaction of the withholding taxes incurred in connection with the issuance, vesting or exercise of any Grant or the issuance of Common Shares thereunder, then the number of Common Shares available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced by the net number of shares issued, vested or exercised under such Grant, calculated in each instance after payment of such share withholding. To the extent any Grants are paid in cash, and not in Common Shares, any shares previously subject to such Grants shall again be available for issuance or transfer under the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, if shares are repurchased by the Company on the open market with the proceeds of the Exercise Price of Options, such shares may not again be made available for issuance under the Plan.

(c) Substitute Awards. Shares issued or transferred under Grants made pursuant to an assumption, substitution or exchange for previously granted awards of a company acquired by the Company in a transaction (“Substitute Awards”) shall not reduce the number of Common Shares available under the Plan and available shares under a shareholder approved plan of an acquired company (as appropriately adjusted to reflect the transaction) may be used for Grants under the Plan and shall not reduce the Plan’s share reserve (subject to applicable stock exchange listing and Code or Tax Act requirements).

(d) Individual Limits for Non-Employee Directors. Subject to adjustment as described below in Section 4(e), the maximum aggregate grant date value of Common Shares subject to Grants granted to any Non-Employee Director during any calendar year, taken together with any cash fees earned by such Non-Employee Director for services rendered during the calendar year, shall not exceed $500,000 in total value; provided, however, that with respect to the year during which the Non-Employee Director is first appointed or elected to the Board,

-9-

the maximum aggregate grant date value of Common Shares granted to such Non-Employee Director during the initial annual period, taken together with any cash fees earned by such Non-Employee Director for services rendered during such period, shall not exceed $750,000 in total value during the initial annual period. For purposes of this limit, the value of such Grants shall be calculated based on the grant date fair value of such Grants for financial reporting purposes.

(e) Adjustments. If there is any change in the number or kind of Common Shares outstanding by reason of (i) a stock dividend, spinoff, recapitalization, stock split, or combination or exchange of shares, (ii) a merger, amalgamation, reorganization or consolidation, (iii) a reclassification or change in par value, or (iv) any other extraordinary or unusual event affecting the outstanding Common Shares as a class without the Company’s receipt of consideration, or if the value of outstanding Common Shares is substantially reduced as a result of a spinoff or the Company’s payment of an extraordinary dividend or distribution, the maximum number and kind of Common Shares available for issuance under the Plan, the maximum amount of Grants which a Non-Employee Director may receive in any year, the number and kind of shares covered by outstanding Grants, the number and kind of shares issued and to be issued under the Plan, and the price per share or the applicable market value of such Grants shall be equitably adjusted by the Committee to reflect any increase or decrease in the number of, or change in the kind or value of, the issued Common Shares to preclude, to the extent practicable, the enlargement or dilution of rights and benefits under the Plan and such outstanding Grants; provided, however, that any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be eliminated. In addition, in the event of a Change of Control, the provisions of Section 12 shall apply. Any adjustments to outstanding Grants to individuals subject to U.S. income tax shall be consistent with Section 409A or Section 424 of the Code, to the extent applicable. The adjustments of Grants under this Section 4(e) shall include adjustment of shares, Exercise Price of Stock Options, base amount of SARs, Performance Goals or other terms and conditions, as the Committee deems appropriate. The Committee shall have the sole discretion and authority to determine what appropriate adjustments shall be made and any adjustments determined by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive.

(a) Eligible Persons. All Employees, Non-Employee Directors and Consultants shall be eligible to participate in the Plan.

However, an Incentive Stock Option may not be granted to an Employee who, at the time of grant, owns securities possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of securities of the Company, or any parent or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as defined in Section 424 of the Code, unless the Exercise Price per share is not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Shares on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Exercise Price of any Option granted to a Canadian Employee shall under no circumstances be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date the Option is granted.

(c) Option Term. The Committee shall determine the term of each Option. The term of any Option shall not exceed ten years from the date of grant. However, an Incentive Stock Option that is granted to an Employee who, at the time of grant, owns securities possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of securities of the Company, or any parent or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as defined in Section 424 of the Code, may not have a term that exceeds five years from the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that on the last business day of the term of an Option (other than an Incentive Stock Option), the exercise of the Option is prohibited by applicable law, including a prohibition on purchases or sales of Common Shares under the Company’s ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ policy, the term of the Option shall be extended for a period of 30 days following the end of the legal prohibition, unless the Committee determines otherwise.

(d) Exercisability of Options. Options shall become exercisable in accordance with such terms and conditions, consistent with the Plan, as may be determined by the Committee and specified in the Grant Instrument. The Committee may accelerate the exercisability of any or all outstanding Options at any time for any reason.

-11-

(e) Grants to Non-Exempt Employees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options granted to persons who are non-exempt employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, may not be exercisable for at least six months after the date of grant (except that such Options may become exercisable, as determined by the Committee, upon the Participant’s death, Disability or retirement, or upon a Change of Control or other circumstances permitted by applicable regulations).

(f) Termination of Employment or Service. Except as provided in the Grant Instrument, an Option may only be exercised while the Participant is employed by, or providing services to, the Employer (and in the case of a Canadian Employee, prior to a Termination Date). The Committee shall determine in the Grant Instrument under what circumstances and during what time periods a Participant may exercise an Option after termination of employment or service.

(g) Exercise of Options. A Participant may exercise an Option that has become exercisable, in whole or in part, by delivering a notice of exercise to the Company. The Participant shall pay the Exercise Price for an Option as specified by the Committee (i) in cash, (ii) unless the Committee determines otherwise, by delivering Common Shares owned by the Participant and having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise at least equal to the Exercise Price or by attestation (on a form prescribed by the Committee) to ownership of Common Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise at least equal to the Exercise Price, (iii) by payment through a broker in accordance with procedures permitted by Regulation T of the Federal Reserve Board, (iv) if permitted by the Committee, and solely with respect to Nonqualified Stock Options, by withholding Common Shares subject to the exercisable Option, which have a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the Exercise Price, or (v) by such other method as the Committee may approve. Common Shares used to exercise an Option shall have been held by the Participant for the requisite period of time necessary to avoid adverse accounting consequences to the Company with respect to the Option. Payment for the shares to be issued or transferred pursuant to the Option, and any required withholding taxes, must be received by the Company by the time specified by the Committee depending on the type of payment being made, but in all cases prior to the issuance or transfer of such shares.

(h) Limits on Incentive Stock Options. Each Incentive Stock Option shall provide that, if the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Common Shares on the date of the grant with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year, under the Plan or any other stock option plan of the Company or a parent or subsidiary, exceeds $100,000, then the Option, as to the excess, shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option.

Section 7. Share Awards

The Committee may issue or transfer Common Shares to an Employee, Non-Employee Director or Consultant under a Share Award, upon such terms as the Committee deems appropriate. The following provisions are applicable to Share Awards:

-12-

(a) General Requirements. Common Shares issued or transferred pursuant to Share Awards may be issued or transferred subject to restrictions or no restrictions, as determined by the Committee. The Committee may, but shall not be required to, establish conditions under which restrictions on Share Awards shall lapse over a period of time or according to such other criteria as the Committee deems appropriate, including, without limitation, restrictions based on the achievement of specific Performance Goals. The period of time during which the Share Awards will remain subject to restrictions will be designated in the Grant Instrument as the “Restriction Period.”

(b) Number of Shares. The Committee shall determine the number of Common Shares to be issued or transferred pursuant to a Share Award and the restrictions applicable to such shares.

(c) Requirement of Employment or Service. If the Participant ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Employer (or in the case of a Canadian Employee, a Termination Date occurs) during a period designated in the Grant Instrument as the Restriction Period, or if other specified conditions are not met, the Share Award shall terminate as to all shares covered by the Grant as to which the restrictions have not lapsed, and those Common Shares must be immediately returned to the Company. The Committee may, however, provide for complete or partial exceptions to this requirement as it deems appropriate.

(d) Restrictions on Transfer and Legend on Share Certificate. During the Restriction Period, a Participant may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of the shares of a Share Award except under Section 15. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Company will retain possession of certificates for shares of Share Awards until all restrictions on such shares have lapsed. Each certificate for a Share Award, unless held by the Company, shall contain a legend giving appropriate notice of the restrictions in the Grant. The Participant shall be entitled to have the legend removed from the share certificate covering the shares subject to restrictions when all restrictions on such shares have lapsed. The Committee may determine that the Company will not issue certificates for Share Awards until all restrictions on such shares have lapsed.

(e) Right to Vote and to Receive Dividends. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, during the Restriction Period, the Participant shall have the right to vote shares of Share Awards and to receive any dividends or other distributions paid on such shares, subject to any restrictions deemed appropriate by the Committee, including, without limitation, the achievement of specific Performance Goals. Dividends with respect to Share Awards that vest based on performance shall vest if and to the extent that the underlying Share Award vests, as determined by the Committee.

(f) Lapse of Restrictions. All restrictions imposed on Share Awards shall lapse upon the expiration of the applicable Restriction Period and the satisfaction of all conditions, if any, imposed by the Committee. The Committee may determine, as to any or all Share Awards, that the restrictions shall lapse without regard to any Restriction Period.

-13-

Section 8. Share Units

The Committee may grant Share Units, each of which shall represent one hypothetical Common Share, to an Employee, Non-Employee Director or Consultant upon such terms and conditions as the Committee deems appropriate. The following provisions are applicable to Share Units:

(a) Crediting of Units. Each Share Unit shall represent the right of the Participant to receive a Common Share or an amount of cash based on the value of a Common Share, if and when specified conditions are met. All Share Units shall be credited to bookkeeping accounts established on the Company’s records for purposes of the Plan.

(b) Terms of Share Units. The Committee may grant Share Units that vest and are payable if specified Performance Goals or other conditions are met, or under other circumstances. Share Units may be paid at the end of a specified performance period or other period, or payment may be deferred to a date authorized by the Committee. The Committee may accelerate vesting or payment, as to any or all Share Units at any time for any reason, provided such acceleration complies with 409A. The Committee shall determine the number of Share Units to be granted and the requirements applicable to such Share Units. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the vesting period for Share Units granted to a Canadian Employee shall, in all cases, be in compliance with the requirements pertaining to the exception to the application of the salary deferral arrangement rules in paragraph (k) of the definition of “salary deferral arrangement” in subsection 248(1) of the Tax Act, as such subsection may be amended or enacted from time to time.

(c) Requirement of Employment or Service. If the Participant ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Employer (or in the case of a Canadian Employee, a Termination Date occurs) prior to the vesting of Share Units, or if other conditions established by the Committee are not met, the Participant’s Share Units shall be forfeited. The Committee may, however, provide for complete or partial exceptions to this requirement as it deems appropriate.

(d) Payment With Respect to Share Units. Payments with respect to Share Units shall be made in cash, Common Shares or any combination of the foregoing, as the Committee shall determine.

(e) Canadian Employees. All Share Units granted to Canadian Employees shall be in compliance with the requirements pertaining to the exception to the application of the salary deferral arrangement rules in paragraph (k) of the definition of “salary deferral arrangement” in subsection 248(1) of the Tax Act, as such subsection may be amended or enacted from time to time.

Section 9. Stock Appreciation Rights

The Committee may grant SARs to an Employee, Non-Employee Director or Consultant separately or in tandem with any Option. The following provisions are applicable to SARs:

(a) General Requirements. The Committee may grant SARs to an Employee, Non-Employee Director or Consultant separately or in tandem with any Option (for all or a portion of the applicable Option). Tandem SARs may be granted either at the time the Option is granted or at any time thereafter while the Option remains outstanding; provided, however, that, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, SARs may be granted only at the time of the grant of the Incentive Stock Option. The Committee shall establish the base amount of the SAR at the

-14-

time the SAR is granted. The base amount of each SAR shall be equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value of a Common Share as of the date of grant of the SAR. The term of any SAR shall not exceed ten years from the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that on the last business day of the term of a SAR, the exercise of the SAR is prohibited by applicable law, including a prohibition on purchases or sales of Common Shares under the Company’s ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ policy, the term shall be extended for a period of 30 days following the end of the legal prohibition, unless the Committee determines otherwise.

(b) Tandem SARs. In the case of tandem SARs, the number of SARs granted to a Participant that shall be exercisable during a specified period shall not exceed the number of Common Shares that the Participant may purchase upon the exercise of the related Option during such period. Upon the exercise of an Option, the SARs relating to the Common Shares covered by such Option shall terminate. Upon the exercise of SARs, the related Option shall terminate to the extent of an equal number of Common Shares.

(c) Exercisability. A SAR shall be exercisable during the period specified by the Committee in the Grant Instrument and shall be subject to such vesting and other restrictions as may be specified in the Grant Instrument. The Committee may accelerate the exercisability of any or all outstanding SARs at any time for any reason. SARs may only be exercised while the Participant is employed by, or providing service to, the Employer (and in the case of a Canadian Employee, prior to a Termination Date) or during the applicable period after termination of employment or service (or in the case of a Canadian Employee, after Termination Date) as specified by the Committee. A tandem SAR shall be exercisable only during the period when the Option to which it is related is also exercisable.

(d) Grants to Non-Exempt Employees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SARs granted to persons who are non-exempt employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, may not be exercisable for at least six months after the date of grant (except that such SARs may become exercisable, as determined by the Committee, upon the Participant’s death, Disability or retirement, or upon a Change of Control or other circumstances permitted by applicable regulations).

(e) Value of SARs. When a Participant exercises SARs, the Participant shall receive in settlement of such SARs an amount equal to the value of the stock appreciation for the number of SARs exercised. The stock appreciation for a SAR is the amount by which the Fair Market Value of the underlying Common Shares on the date of exercise of the SAR exceeds the base amount of the SAR as described in subsection (a).

(f) Form of Payment. The appreciation in a SAR shall be paid in Common Shares, cash or any combination of the foregoing, as the Committee shall determine. For purposes of calculating the number of Common Shares to be received, Common Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of the SAR.

-15-

Section 10. Other Share-Based Awards

The Committee may grant Other Share-Based Awards, which are awards (other than those described in Sections 6 through 9) that are based on or measured by Common Shares, to any Employee, Non-Employee Director or Consultant, on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine. Other Share-Based Awards may be awarded subject to the achievement of Performance Goals or other criteria or other conditions and may be payable in cash, Common Shares or any combination of the foregoing, as the Committee shall determine.

Section 11. Dividend Equivalents

The Committee may grant Dividend Equivalents in connection with Share Units or Other Share-Based Awards. Dividend Equivalents may be paid currently or accrued as contingent cash obligations and may be payable in cash or Common Shares, and upon such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine. Dividend Equivalents with respect to Share Units or Other Share-Based Awards that vest based on performance shall vest and be paid only if and to the extent the underlying Share Units or Other Share-Based Awards vest and are paid, as determined by the Committee.

Section 12. Consequences of a Change of Control

(a) Assumption of Outstanding Grants. Upon a Change of Control where the Company is not the surviving corporation (or survives only as a subsidiary of another corporation), unless the Committee determines otherwise, all outstanding Grants that are not exercised or paid at the time of the Change of Control shall be assumed by, or replaced with grants (with respect to cash, securities, or a combination thereof) that have comparable terms by, the surviving corporation (or a parent or subsidiary of the surviving corporation). An assumption or substitution of any Grants shall be done in a manner consistent with the provisions of Sections 409A and, if applicable, 424 of the Code, for individuals subject to U.S. income tax. After a Change of Control, references to the “Company” or “Employer” as they relate to employment matters shall include the successor employer in the transaction, subject to applicable law.

(b) Other Alternatives. In the event of a Change of Control, if any outstanding Grants are not assumed by, or replaced with grants that have comparable terms by, the surviving corporation (or a parent or subsidiary of the surviving corporation), the Committee may (but is not obligated to) make adjustments to the terms and conditions of outstanding Grants, including, without limitation, taking any of the following actions (or combination thereof) with respect to any or all outstanding Grants, without the consent of any Participant: (i) the Committee may determine that outstanding Stock Options and SARs shall automatically accelerate and become fully exercisable and the restrictions and conditions on outstanding Share Awards, Share Units and Dividend Equivalents shall immediately lapse; (ii) the Committee may determine that Participants shall receive a payment in settlement of outstanding Share Units or Dividend Equivalents, in such amount and form as may be determined by the Committee; (iii) the Committee may require that Participants surrender their outstanding Stock Options and SARs in exchange for a payment by the Company, in cash or Common Shares as determined by the Committee, in an amount equal to the amount, if any, by which the then Fair Market Value of the Common Shares subject to the Participant’s unexercised Stock Options and SARs exceeds the Stock Option Exercise Price or SAR base amount, and (iv) after giving Participants an opportunity to exercise all of their outstanding Stock Options and SARs, the Committee may terminate any or all unexercised Stock Options and SARs at such time as the Committee deems appropriate. Such surrender, termination or payment shall take place as of the date of the

-16-

Change of Control or such other date as the Committee may specify. Without limiting the foregoing, if the per share Fair Market Value of the Common Shares does not exceed the per share Stock Option Exercise Price or SAR base amount, as applicable, the Company shall not be required to make any payment to the Participant upon surrender of the Stock Option or SAR and shall have the right to cancel any such Stock Option or SAR for no consideration.

Section 13. Deferrals

The Committee may permit or require a Participant to defer receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of shares that would otherwise be due to such Participant in connection with any Grant. If any such deferral election is permitted or required, the Committee shall establish rules and procedures for such deferrals and may provide for interest or other earnings to be paid on such deferrals. The rules and procedures for any such deferrals shall be consistent with applicable requirements of 409A.

Section 14. Withholding of Taxes

(a) Required Withholding. All Grants under the Plan shall be subject to applicable United States federal (including taxes under FICA), state and local, foreign country or other tax withholding requirements. The Employer may require that the Participant or other person receiving Grants or exercising Grants pay to the Employer an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax withholding requirements with respect to such Grants, or the Employer may deduct from other wages and compensation paid by the Employer the amount of any withholding taxes due with respect to such Grants.

(b) Share Withholding. The Committee may permit or require the Employer’s tax withholding obligation with respect to Grants paid in Common Shares to be satisfied by having shares withheld up to an amount that does not exceed the Participant’s applicable withholding tax rate for United States federal (including FICA), state and local, foreign country or other tax liabilities. The Committee may, in its discretion, and subject to such rules as the Committee may adopt, allow Participants to elect to have such share withholding applied to all or a portion of the tax withholding obligation arising in connection with any particular Grant. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, share withholding for taxes shall not exceed the Participant’s minimum applicable tax withholding amount.

Section 15. Transferability of Grants

(a) Nontransferability of Grants. Except as described in subsection (b) below, only the Participant may exercise rights under a Grant during the Participant’s lifetime. A Participant may not transfer those rights except (i) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or (ii) with respect to Grants other than Incentive Stock Options, pursuant to a domestic relations order. When a Participant dies, the personal representative or other person entitled to succeed to the rights of the Participant may exercise such rights. Any such successor must furnish proof satisfactory to the Company of his or her right to receive the Grant under the Participant’s will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

-17-

(b) Transfer of Nonqualified Stock Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may provide, in a Grant Instrument, that a Participant may transfer Nonqualified Stock Options to a permitted assign in compliance with the applicable securities laws, according to such terms as the Committee may determine; provided that the Participant receives no consideration for the transfer of an Option and the transferred Option shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the Option immediately before the transfer.

Section 16. Requirements for Issuance or Transfer of Shares

No Common Shares shall be issued or transferred in connection with any Grant hereunder unless and until all legal requirements applicable to the issuance or transfer of such Common Shares have been complied with to the satisfaction of the Committee. The Committee shall have the right to condition any Grant on the Participant’s undertaking in writing to comply with such restrictions on his or her subsequent disposition of the Common Shares as the Committee shall deem necessary or advisable, and certificates representing such shares may be legended to reflect any such restrictions. Certificates representing Common Shares issued or transferred under the Plan may be subject to such stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems appropriate to comply with applicable laws, regulations and interpretations, including any requirement that a legend be placed thereon.

Section 17. Amendment and Termination of the Plan

(a) Amendment. The Board may amend or terminate the Plan at any time; provided, however, that the Board shall not amend the Plan without shareholder approval if such approval is required in order to comply with the Code, the Tax Act or other applicable law, or to comply with applicable stock exchange requirements.

(b) No Repricing of Options or SARs. Except in connection with a corporate transaction involving the Company (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Shares, other securities or property), stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, change in control, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of Common Shares or other securities, or similar transactions), the Company may not, without obtaining shareholder approval, (i) amend the terms of outstanding Stock Options or SARs to reduce the Exercise Price of such outstanding Stock Options or base price of such SARs, (ii) cancel outstanding Stock Options or SARs in exchange for Stock Options or SARs with an Exercise Price or base price, as applicable, that is less than the Exercise Price or base price of the original Stock Options or SARs or (iii) cancel outstanding Stock Options or SARs with an Exercise Price or base price, as applicable, above the current stock price in exchange for cash or other securities.

(c) Termination of Plan. The Plan shall terminate on the day immediately preceding the tenth anniversary of its Effective Date, unless the Plan is terminated earlier by the Board or is extended by the Board with the approval of the shareholders.

(d) Termination and Amendment of Outstanding Grants. A termination or amendment of the Plan that occurs after a Grant is made shall not materially impair the rights of a Participant with respect to such Grant unless the Participant consents or unless the Committee acts under Section 18(f). The termination of the Plan shall not impair the power and authority of the Committee with respect to an outstanding Grant. Whether or not the Plan has terminated, an outstanding Grant may be terminated or amended under Section 18(f) or may be amended by agreement of the Company and the Participant consistent with the Plan.

-18-

Section 18. Miscellaneous

(a) Grants in Connection with Corporate Transactions and Otherwise. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to (i) limit the right of the Committee to make Grants under the Plan in connection with the acquisition, by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of the business or assets of any corporation, firm or association, including Grants to employees thereof who become Employees, or (ii) limit the right of the Company to grant stock options or make other awards outside of the Plan. The Committee may make a Grant to an employee of another corporation who becomes an Employee by reason of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of securities or property, reorganization or liquidation involving the Company, in substitution for a stock option or Share Awards grant made by such corporation. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may establish such terms and conditions of the new Grants as it deems appropriate, including setting the Exercise Price of Options or the base price of SARs at a price necessary to retain for the Participant the same economic value as the prior options or rights.

(b) Governing Document. The Plan shall be the controlling document. No other statements, representations, explanatory materials or examples, oral or written, may amend the Plan in any manner. The Plan shall be binding upon and enforceable against the Company and its successors and assigns.

(c) Funding of the Plan. The Plan shall be unfunded. The Company shall not be required to establish any special or separate fund or to make any other segregation of assets to assure the payment of any Grants under the Plan.

(d) Rights of Participants. Nothing in the Plan shall entitle any Employee, Non-Employee Director, Consultant or other person to any claim or right to receive a Grant under the Plan. Any Grant under the Plan shall be a one-time award that does not constitute a promise of future grants nor will it form part of a Participant’s standard compensation or be considered for the purpose of calculating any entitlements to vacation, benefits, notice of termination or payment in lieu of notice or as otherwise required by any other contract or applicable law. The Company, in its sole discretion, maintains the right to make available future Grants under the Plan. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any individual any rights to be retained by or in the employ of the Employer or any other employment rights.

(e) No Fractional Shares. No fractional Common Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Grant. Except as otherwise provided under the Plan, the Committee shall determine whether cash, other awards or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

-19-

(f) Compliance with Law.

(i) The Plan, the exercise of Options and SARs and the obligations of the Company to issue or transfer Common Shares under Grants shall be subject to all applicable laws and regulations, and to approvals by any governmental or regulatory agency as may be required. With respect to persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, it is the intent of the Company that the Plan and all transactions under the Plan comply with all applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors under the Exchange Act. In addition, it is the intent of the Company that Incentive Stock Options comply with the applicable provisions of Section 422 of the Code, and that, to the extent applicable, Grants comply with the requirements of 409A, to the extent applicable. To the extent that any legal requirement of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, 409A or Section 422 of the Code as set forth in the Plan ceases to be required under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, 409A or Section 422 of the Code, that Plan provision shall cease to apply. The Committee may revoke any Grant if it is contrary to law or modify a Grant to bring it into compliance with any valid and mandatory government regulation. The Committee may also adopt rules regarding the withholding of taxes on payments to Participants. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, agree to limit its authority under this Section.

(ii) The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of 409A, to the extent applicable. Each Grant shall be construed and administered such that the Grant either (A) qualifies for an exemption from the requirements of 409A or (B) satisfies the requirements of 409A. If a Grant is subject to 409A, (I) distributions shall only be made in a manner and upon an event permitted under 409A, (II) payments to be made upon a termination of employment or service shall only be made upon a “separation from service” under 409A, (III) unless the Grant specifies otherwise, each installment payment shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of 409A, and (IV) in no event shall a Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year in which a distribution is made except in accordance with 409A.

(iii) Any Grant that is subject to 409A and that is to be distributed to a Key Employee (as defined below) upon separation from service shall be administered so that any distribution with respect to such Grant shall be postponed for six months following the date of the Participant’s separation from service, if required by 409A. If a distribution is delayed pursuant to 409A, the distribution shall be paid within 15 days after the end of the six-month period. If the Participant dies during such six-month period, any postponed amounts shall be paid within 90 days of the Participant’s death. The determination of Key Employees, including the number and identity of persons considered Key Employees and the identification date, shall be made by the Committee or its delegate each year in accordance with Section 416(i) of the Code and the “specified employee” requirements of 409A.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or any Grant agreement to the contrary, each Participant shall be solely responsible for the tax consequences of Grants under the Plan, and in no event shall the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company have any responsibility or liability if a Grant does not meet any applicable requirements of 409A. Although the Company intends to administer the Plan to prevent taxation under 409A, the Company does not represent or warrant that the Plan or any Grant complies with any provision of federal, state, local or other tax law.

-20-

(g) Establishment of Subplans. The Board may from time to time establish one or more sub-plans under the Plan for purposes of satisfying applicable blue sky, securities or tax laws of various jurisdictions outside the United States or Canada. The Board shall establish such sub-plans by adopting supplements to the Plan setting forth (i) such limitations on the Committee’s discretion under the Plan as the Board deems necessary or desirable and (ii) such additional terms and conditions not otherwise inconsistent with the Plan as the Board shall deem necessary or desirable. All supplements adopted by the Board shall be deemed to be part of the Plan, but each supplement shall apply only to Participants within the affected jurisdiction and the Employer shall not be required to provide copies of any supplement to Participants in any jurisdiction that is not affected.

(h) Clawback Rights. All Grants (including any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by the Participant upon any receipt of any Grant or upon the receipt or resale of any shares of Company Stock underlying the Grant) under the Plan shall be subject to the provisions of any applicable policies implemented by the Board from time to time, including, any clawback or recoupment policies, share trading policies and other policies that may be implemented by the Board from time to time.

(i) Tax Act Elections. In the sole discretion of the Committee, the Company may make an election under subsection 110(1.1) of the Tax Act where applicable.

(j) Waiver of Damages. A grantee, who is a Canadian Employee, waives any and all rights to any Grants and to any compensation or damages in respect or in lieu thereof as a consequence of termination of the Participant’s employment or service to the Employer for any reason, or otherwise for any reason whatsoever insofar as those rights arise or may arise from the Participant ceasing to have rights with respect to such Grants upon a termination such Participant’s employment or service to the Employer.

(k) Governing Law. The validity, construction, interpretation and effect of the Plan and Grant Instruments issued under the Plan shall be governed and construed by and determined in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof.
