NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.                   Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, at the Closing (as defined below), each Subscriber hereby severally (but not jointly) agrees to subscribe for and purchase, and the Company hereby agrees to issue and sell to the Subscriber, upon the payment of the respective Purchase Price, the Subscribed Notes set forth for each such Subscriber on Exhibit A attached hereto (such subscription and issuance, the “Subscription”). Each Subscriber has the right to designate, in accordance with Section 2(b), using a designation notice in a form to be agreed between the Company and the Lead Subscriber (such notice, a “Designation Notice”), that some or all of its Subscribed Notes be issued in the name of and delivered to an affiliate or any investment fund or separately managed accounts which such Subscriber or its affiliates controls or manages. Each Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that, as a result of the Domestication, the Subscribed Notes that will be issued pursuant hereto shall be securities of a Delaware corporation (and not securities of a Cayman Islands exempted company).

2.                   Closing.

a.            The consummation of each Subscription contemplated hereby (each, a “Closing”) shall occur on the Closing Date following the Domestication and substantially concurrently with the BCA Closing.

b.            At least twelve (12) Business Days before the anticipated Closing Date, the Company shall deliver written notice to each Subscriber (the “Closing Notice”) specifying (i) the anticipated Closing Date, (ii) such Subscriber’s Purchase Price, (iii) the wire instructions for delivery of such Subscriber’s Purchase Price to an escrow account of a third party escrow agent mutually acceptable to the Company and the Lead Subscriber (defined below) (the “Escrow Agent” and such account, the “Escrow Account”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in an escrow agreement (which escrow agreement shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Company and the Lead Subscriber (as defined below), and entered into by the Company, each Subscriber and the Escrow Agent prior to the Subscribers funding into the Escrow Account as contemplated hereunder), and (iv) its good faith belief that each of the closing conditions set forth in Sections 2(c) and (2)(e) will be satisfied on or prior to Closing. No later than two (2) Business Days after receiving the Closing Notice (and in any event at least three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date), each Subscriber shall deliver to the Company such information as is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the Company to issue the Subscribed Notes to the Subscriber (or its respective designee(s) as set forth in the Designation Notice), including, without limitation, a duly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or appropriate Form W-8. Each Subscriber shall deliver to the Company, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, one or more duly completed Designation Notices, if applicable, and each Subscriber shall deliver to the Escrow Account its respective Purchase Price in cash via wire transfer, which shall be delivered to the Company on the Closing Date against delivery by the Company to the Subscriber (or its respective designee(s), as applicable) of the respective Subscribed Notes in book entry form, to the extent the Notes are eligible, pursuant to the DWAC procedures of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), which will act as securities depository for the Notes, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions (other than those arising under the Indenture, this Subscription Agreement or state or federal securities laws), in the name of a custodian designated by the Subscribers (or its respective designee(s), as applicable), which custodian shall have properly posted such DWAC for release by the Trustee through the facilities of DTC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Subscriber shall be obligated to deliver to the Escrow Account its respective Purchase Price only following completion of a customary investigation required under such Subscriber’s “Know your Customer” or Anti-Money Laundering Laws (as defined below) compliance policies or its anti-money laundering policies, provided that such Subscriber shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to complete such investigation as promptly as practicable following the date hereof. In the event that the consummation of the Transactions does not occur within three (3) Business Days after the anticipated Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, the Escrow Agent shall promptly (but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter) return the funds so delivered by each Subscriber (or its respective designee(s), as applicable) by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account specified by such Subscriber (or its respective designee(s), as applicable). The failure of the Closing to occur on the Closing Date shall not, in and of itself, terminate this Subscription Agreement or otherwise relieve any party of any of its obligations hereunder, including the obligation of the Subscriber to purchase the Subscribed Notes at the Closing. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is closed.

c.             The Closing with respect to each Subscriber shall be subject to the satisfaction or valid waiver (to the extent a valid waiver is capable of being issued) by the Company, on the one hand, and such Subscriber, on the other hand, of the conditions that, on the Closing Date:

In no event shall the Company be responsible for reimbursement of any fees or expenses of any party if the Transactions are not consummated.

f.       Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Subscribers hereunder (other than the Subscribed Notes acquired hereunder, if any) may be transferred or assigned. Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Company hereunder may be transferred or assigned (provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company may transfer the Subscription Agreement and its rights (but not obligations) hereunder solely in connection with the consummation of the Transactions and exclusively to another entity under the control of, or under common control with, the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Subscriber may delegate its rights as set forth in the Designation Notice, and may further assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates (including other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of such Subscriber) or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, provided that no such assignment shall relieve such Subscriber of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations, unless the Company has given its prior written consent to such relief, and such assignee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms hereof.

g.       Each of the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.

h.       This Subscription Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of such modification, waiver, or termination is sought; provided, that (i) Section 3, Section 4, this Section 7(h), Section 7(j) and Section 7(t) of this Subscription Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived in a manner that is material and adverse to the Placement Agents without the written consent of the Placement Agents, and (ii) the Lead Subscriber may amend, modify or waive this Subscription Agreement on behalf of, and as it relates to, all Subscribers unless such amendment, modification or waiver materially, adversely and disproportionately impacts a Subscriber, in which case such Subscriber’s written consent shall also be required.

i.       This Subscription Agreement (including Annex A hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof, except that any confidentiality agreement with respect to the undersigned or its affiliates shall remain in full force and effect.

j.       Benefit.

(i)        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.

(ii)       The parties hereto agree that the Placement Agents are express third-party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement to the extent expressly provided in Section 3, Section 4, Section 7(h), this Section 7(j) and Section 7(t) of this Subscription Agreement. Prior to the Closing, Subscriber agrees to promptly notify the Company and the Placement Agents if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties of Subscriber set forth herein are no longer accurate. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that each purchase by Subscriber of Subscribed Notes from the Company will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein (as modified by any such notification) by Subscriber as of the time of such purchase.

k.       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.

l.       This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

m.       Remedies.

(i)                 The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise.

(ii)               Each of the parties hereto shall be entitled to seek and obtain equitable relief, without proof of actual damages, including an injunction or injunctions or order for specific performance to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement to cause each the Subscriber to fund the respective portion of its Purchase Price and cause the Closing to occur if the conditions in Section 2 of this Subscription Agreement have been satisfied or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waived. The parties hereto further agree (A) to waive any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with any such equitable remedy, (B) not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement pursuant to this paragraph (m) is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable law or inequitable for any reason and (C) to waive any defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. In any dispute arising out of or related to this Subscription Agreement, or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby, or any transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the applicable adjudicating body shall award to the prevailing party, if any, the documented costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the dispute and the enforcement of its rights under this Subscription Agreement or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby and, if the adjudicating body determines a party to be the prevailing party under circumstances where the prevailing party won on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the adjudicating body may award the prevailing party an appropriate percentage of the documented costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the adjudication and the enforcement of its rights under this Subscription Agreement or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby or thereby.

(iii)             If (A) the Company consummates its initial “Business Combination” (as defined in its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, dated July 27, 2020), with or among Tempo, Compass, Whizz, or any of their respective affiliates or subsidiaries (any such initial Business Combination, the “Business Combination”) and (B) this Subscription Agreement is terminated for any reason other than (x) a termination by the Company as a result of the Lead Subscriber’s breach of its obligations thereunder or (y) a termination on account of the Closing occurring and the Company issuing the Notes to the Subscribers, the Lead Subscriber shall be entitled to a termination fee in an amount equal to 3.5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Subscribed Notes, to be paid by the Company or any other successor to the Company immediately following and as a condition subsequent to the closing of the Business Combination. In no event shall Tempo or the Company be responsible for payment of any termination fee if the Business Combination is not consummated. This Section 7(m)(iii) shall survive the termination of this Subscription Agreement.

n.       This Subscription Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws that would otherwise require the application of the law of any other state.

o.       EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OR RELATED TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY AFFILIATE OF ANY OTHER SUCH PARTY, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT.

p.       The parties agree that all disputes, legal actions, suits and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Subscription Agreement must be brought exclusively in the state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in the state and county of New York (collectively the “Designated Courts”). Each party hereby consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Designated Courts. No legal action, suit or proceeding with respect to this subscription agreement may be brought in any other forum. Each party hereby irrevocably waives all claims of immunity from jurisdiction and any objection which such party may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding in any Designated Court, including any right to object on the basis that any dispute, action, suit or proceeding brought in the Designated Courts has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum or venue. Each of the parties also agrees that delivery of any process, summons, notice or document to a party hereof in compliance with Section 7(a) of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in a Designated Court with respect to any matters to which the parties have submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above.

q.       This Subscription Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim, action, suit or other legal proceeding based upon, arising out of, or related to this Subscription Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Subscription Agreement, may only be brought against the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, manager, member, partner, stockholder, affiliate, agent, attorney or other representative of any party hereto or of any affiliate of any party hereto, or any of their successors or permitted assigns, shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of any party hereto under this Subscription Agreement or for any claim, action, suit or other legal proceeding based on, in respect of or by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby.

r.       The Company shall, by 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately following the date of this Subscription Agreement, issue one or more press releases or file with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (collectively, the “Disclosure Document”) disclosing, to the extent not previously publicly disclosed, all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and the Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Subscriber or any affiliate or investment advisor of any Subscriber, or include the name of any Subscriber or any affiliate or investment advisor of any Subscriber in any press release or in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or trading market, without the prior written consent (including by e-mail) of such Subscriber, and shall omit or redact such Subscriber’s signature page to omit its name and any other identifying information in any such press release or filing, except (i) to the extent required by the federal securities laws, rules or regulations (subject to Commission request as provide in clause (ii) in the case of federal securities laws), (ii) to the extent such disclosure is required by other laws, rules or regulations, in each case, at the request of the staff of the Commission or regulatory agency or under NASDAQ regulations or (iii) to the extent such announcements or other communications contain only information previously disclosed in public statement, press release or other communication previously approved in accordance with this Section 7(r); provided, in the case of (i) and (ii), the Company shall provide the Subscribers with prior written notice (including by e-mail) of such permitted disclosure, and shall reasonably consult with the Subscribers regarding such disclosure.

s.       The obligations of the Subscribers under this Subscription Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Subscriber, and each Subscriber shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement. The decision of each Subscriber to purchase Subscribed Notes pursuant to this Subscription Agreement has been made by such 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 the Company or any of its 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 such 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, and no action taken by the Subscriber or investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Subscribers and other investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Subscribers and 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. Each Subscriber acknowledges that no other Subscriber has acted as agent for the Subscriber in connection with making its investment hereunder and no other Subscriber will be acting as agent of the Subscriber in connection with monitoring its investment in the Subscribed Notes or enforcing its rights under this Subscription Agreement. Each 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.

t.       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, the Placement Agents, any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing), other than the statements, representations and warranties of the Company expressly contained in Section 3 of this Subscription Agreement, in making its investment or decision to invest in Company. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that none of (i) any other investor pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or any Other Subscription Agreement (including Subscriber’s affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing) or (ii) the Placement Agents, their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing, shall have any liability to Subscriber or to any other Subscriber pursuant to, arising out of or relating to this Subscription Agreement, the negotiation hereof or thereof or its subject matter, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including, without limitation, with respect to any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Subscribed Notes or with respect to any claim (whether in tort, contract 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, 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 the Company, Tempo, the Placement Agents or any Non-Party Affiliate (as defined below) concerning the Company, the Company, the Placement Agents, any of their respective 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 the Company, Tempo, any Placement Agent or any of the Company’s, Tempo’s or the Placement Agents’ controlled affiliates or any family member of the foregoing. 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 connection with the sale of Subscribed Notes pursuant to this Subscription Agreement. On behalf of Subscriber and its affiliates, Subscriber releases the Placement Agents in respect of any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements related to the sale of Subscribed Notes pursuant to this Subscription Agreement. 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 sale of Subscribed Notes pursuant to this Subscription Agreement. This undertaking is given freely and after obtaining independent legal advice. This Section 7(t) shall survive any termination of this Subscription Agreement.  The Placement Agents have introduced the Subscribers to the Company in reliance on each Subscriber’s understanding and agreement to this Section 7(t).

8.       Subscriber Covenant. Each Subscriber hereby agrees that, from the date of this Subscription Agreement, none of such Subscriber, its controlled affiliates, or any person or entity acting on behalf of such Subscriber or any of its controlled affiliates or pursuant to any understanding with such Subscriber or any of its controlled affiliates will engage in any Short Sales with respect to securities of the Company prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of this Section 8, “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), and sales and other transactions through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing herein shall prohibit other entities under common management with such Subscriber that have no knowledge of this Subscription Agreement or of such Subscriber’s participation in the Transactions (including such Subscriber’s controlled affiliates and/or affiliates) from entering into any Short Sales and (ii) 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 and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Subscriber’s assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Subscribed Notes covered by this Subscription Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Brookfield Asset Management Inc. nor any of its controlled affiliates shall be deemed to have any knowledge of this Subscription Agreement or of any Subscriber’s participation in the Transactions except to the extent such entities cross the ethical wall in place between Subscribers, on the one hand, and Brookfield and its controlled affiliates, on the other hand.

Re:     Board Observer and Confidentiality Agreement

Dear Mr. Abdi and Ms. Weiss:

Reference is made to that certain Subscription Agreement, dated as of January 18, 2021, by and among (i) ACE Convergence Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares, which entity shall migrate to and domesticate as Tempo Automation Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, prior to the Closing (the “Company”), (ii) Tempo Automation, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Tempo”) (solely for purposes of the agreements and obligations set forth in Section 7(e) of the Subscription Agreement), and (iii) each of the subscribers signatory thereto (the “Subscribers”) (as the same may be amended or modified from time to time, the “Subscription Agreement”), pursuant to which Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. and/or one or more of its affiliates or affiliated investment funds and/or managed or controlled accounts (collectively, “Oaktree”) has subscribed for, and agreed to purchase from the Company, at the Closing, $175 million in aggregate principal amount of 13% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”) having the terms set forth in that certain Indenture, to be dated as of Closing Date, by and between the Company, as issuer and U.S. Bank, National Association, as trustee (in substantially the form attached to the Subscription Agreement as Exhibit B thereto, the “Indenture”). Capitalized terms used herein, but not defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Subscription Agreement.

In connection with the execution of the Subscription Agreement by Oaktree (as Subscribers), and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each of the parties hereby acknowledges and agrees, on behalf of itself, as follows:

1.             Agreements.

(a)           Right to Appoint Board Observers.

(i)                 Commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date Oaktree no longer holds or controls Notes in an aggregate principal amount that is at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased by Oaktree on the Closing Date (but subject to Section 1(a)(vi) hereof), Oaktree shall have the right (but not the obligation) to appoint up to two (2) individuals to attend, as board observers and participants in a nonfiduciary and non-voting capacity, who may be investment professionals or any other person employed by or associated with Oaktree and/or a third party (each such individual, an “Observer”), each meeting of the board of directors of the Company and any duly authorized committee thereof (the “Board” and each such meeting, including a committee meeting, a “Meeting”). Neither Oaktree nor any such Observer (i) shall have any duties (fiduciary or otherwise) to the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of its or their respective stockholders or other equityholders or owners or to any other holder of Notes, and (ii) except as described in Section 1 and Section 2 of this letter agreement, no obligations to the Company under this letter agreement.

(ii)              Each Observer shall be entitled to participate in discussions of any matters presented at any Meeting, but shall not be entitled to vote on any such matters. The Company shall (x) provide each Observer with reasonable advance written notice of the time, place, telephonic (or other remote access) information and agenda for each Meeting (but in no event shall such notice be given to each Observer later than the time at which such notice is provided to the Board) and, in the case of any proposed action by written consent in lieu of a Meeting, shall provide each Observer with copies of all consent materials no later than the time that such materials are provided to the Board, (y) provide each Observer with copies of all minutes of each Meeting and all written consents in lieu of any Meeting promptly after such Meeting has been adjourned or such consent has been executed, as applicable, and (z) provide each Observer with copies of all documents, materials and other information given to any member of any Board no later than the time at which any member of such Board is provided with such documents, materials or other information. The failure to deliver notice, or materials, to each Observer in connection with such Observer’s right to attend and/or review materials with respect to, any meeting of the Board shall not, of itself, impair the validity of any action taken by the Board at such meeting. Each Observer shall be required to execute or otherwise become subject to any codes of conduct and policy with respect to compliance with securities laws as the Company may reasonably require (including with respect to prohibitions on “tipping” under the federal securities laws regardless of whether the Observer is determined to owe any fiduciary duty to the Company). Each Observer and Oaktree shall agree to maintain the confidentiality of all non-public information and proceedings of the Board and any committee of the Board and to comply with, and be bound by, in all respects, the terms and conditions of the confidentiality provisions of Section 4 of this letter agreement (the “Confidentiality Provisions”), which agreement shall, with respect to any Observer, be evidenced either in a joinder to this letter agreement or in a writing in such other form as is reasonably acceptable to the Company that is executed by the Observer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Observer shall not be entitled to receive portions of any materials relating to, or be in attendance for any portion of any Meetings or other discussions relating to, topics for which the Board makes a reasonable good faith determination that the disclosure of such materials to such Observer, or the attendance at such portions of such Meetings or other discussions by such Observer, as applicable, (1) will constitute a waiver of the attorney client privilege to which the Company is entitled, (2) will result in a violation of applicable law or regulation by the Company, or (3) would provide the Observer with access to information that directly relates to the Company’s strategy, negotiating position or obligations specifically related to Oaktree or that otherwise involves or is reasonably expected to involve a conflict of interest with the Observer or Oaktree or any of their respective affiliates.

(iii)            Oaktree may from time to time and at any time, in its sole discretion and by providing the Company with prior written notice thereof (including by e-mail), remove and replace either Observer with a new Observer. The Company shall have the right to approve any such new Observer that, at the time of appointment, is not an employee of Oaktree or any of its affiliates, provided that such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event any Observer ceases to be an employee of Oaktree or any of its affiliates, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, Oaktree will remove and replace such Observer with another Observer pursuant to this Section 1(a)(iii).

(iv)            The reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by each Observer (or any substitute individual) in connection with attendance at Meetings or otherwise, including, but not limited to, the reasonable travel and lodging costs, shall be paid by the Company after receipt of a written request by the Observer for such payment in accordance with the Company’s normal expense reimbursement policies and procedures.

(v)              The initial Observers shall be the individuals specified in a written notice (including by e-mail) delivered on or after the Closing Date, which individuals shall be employees of Oaktree or any of its affiliates unless otherwise approved in writing by the Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(vi)             Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Oaktree shall be permitted to assign one (1) Observer seat to any transferee of its Notes that (together with its affiliates) acquires at least two-thirds of the total principal amount of Notes purchased by Oaktree on the Closing Date, in either a single transaction or a series of transactions, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 1(a), by executing a joinder to this letter agreement, certifying as to such transferee’s holdings of its Notes and delivering such joinder to the Company. Upon delivery of any such joinder to the Company, all references to “Oaktree” in this Agreement, solely with respect to any Observer appointed by such transferee, shall be deemed to refer to such transferee. Oaktree (or its transferee, as applicable), shall be responsible for any breach by its respective Observer(s) of the Confidentiality Providers but shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, be responsible for any such breach by an Observer that was not appointed by it. In the event that Oaktree assigns an Observer right to a transferee, Oaktree’s right to appoint the remaining Observer shall terminate once Oaktree no longer holds or controls at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes that Oaktree purchased on the Closing Date, and the right of Oaktree’s transferee to appoint an Observer shall terminate once such transferee no longer holds or controls at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased by Oaktree on the Closing Date.

(b)          Liquidity Reporting. No later than five (5) Business Days (as defined in the Indenture) following the end of each calendar month, the Company shall certify in writing to Oaktree (or any of its transferees that own or control at least $25,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Notes) the Cash Amount (as defined in the Indenture) (and the component parts thereof) as of the end of each day of such calendar month and whether on each such calendar day the Cash Amount exceeded the Required Cash Amount (as defined in the Indenture).

(c)           Access; Inspection Rights. For so long as Oaktree (or any of its transferees) holds or controls Notes in an aggregate principal amount that is at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased by Oaktree on the Closing Date, Oaktree (and/or any transferee (together with its affiliates) that holds, or will hold following such transfer, at least $50 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes):

(i)                 shall be entitled (i) to visit and inspect any of the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’ respective properties, (ii) to examine any corporate, financial and operating records of the Company (or any of its subsidiaries), and make copies thereof or abstracts therefrom, and (iii) to discuss the Company’s business, operations, affairs, finances and accounts with its officers, directors and employees, in each case at the reasonable expense of the Company and at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably desired, upon reasonable advance written notice (which may be by e-mail) to the Company; provided that, Oaktree shall not exercise such rights more often than one time during any calendar quarter; and

(ii)              the Company shall provide written notice and consult with Oaktree (or any such transferee) prior to making a determination that any amounts are treated as distributions with respect to the Notes under section 305 of the Code and prior to withholding any taxes with respect to such amounts; provided, that such right to consultation shall be deemed satisfied if, following the delivery of such notice, (i) the Company has made due and reasonable efforts to consult with Oaktree (or any such transferee), and (ii) Oaktree (or any such transferee) has not responded to the Company within thirty (30) days of such delivery.

2.             Effectiveness. This letter agreement shall become effective automatically, and without any further action by any party hereto or any other person, upon the occurrence of the Closing under the Subscription Agreement.

3.             Representations. Each of the Company, Tempo and Oaktree represents and warrants that it is duly authorized and has the corporate and legal power and authority to enter into this letter agreement and take the acts and actions described herein.

4.             Confidentiality.

(a)           As used in this letter agreement, subject to Section 4(c) below, “Confidential Information” means any and all non-public financial information or other non-public information concerning the Company, its subsidiaries and their affiliates that may hereafter be disclosed to the Observer by the Company, its subsidiaries, their affiliates or by any of the directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, advisors or other representatives (including financial advisors, accountants or legal counsel) (the “Representatives”) of the Company or its subsidiaries, including all notices, minutes, consents, materials, ideas or other information (to the extent constituting information concerning the Company, its subsidiaries and their affiliates that is non-public financial information or other non-public information) provided to the Observer.

(b)          Except to the extent permitted by this Section 4(b) or by Section 4(c) or Section 4(d) below, Oaktree shall instruct its Observers and, solely to the extent the Observer is an employee of Oaktree, Oaktree shall cause such Observer, to keep such Confidential Information strictly confidential and not use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than in connection with his or her role as an Observer; provided, that each Observer may share Confidential Information with Oaktree and its affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, advisors, legal counsel and other representatives, as well as with any Permitted Transferee that holds, or will hold following such transfer, at least $50 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (each such transferee, a “Permitted Recipient”) who (a) have a need to know such information and (b) are informed of the confidential nature of such information. Oaktree and the other Permitted Recipients shall keep such Confidential Information strictly confidential and shall not use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than monitoring Oaktree’s investment in the Company and exercising Oaktree’s rights as an investor in the Company and its rights under this letter agreement; provided, however, that, subject to Section 4(e) below, the foregoing shall not apply to the extent Oaktree, its affiliates, or any of the Permitted Recipients or the Observer is requested or compelled to disclose Confidential Information by statute, rule, regulation, arbitral or judicial or regulatory process or otherwise requested by any governmental authority.

No later than five (5) Business Days (as defined in the Indenture) following the end of each calendar quarter, the Company shall certify in writing to Tor the Cash Amount (as defined in the Indenture) (and the component parts thereof) as of the end of the last day of such calendar quarter.

(b)        Access; Inspection Rights. For so long as Tor (or any of its transferees) holds or controls at least $25,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Notes, Tor (or such transferee) shall be entitled (i) to visit and inspect any of the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’ respective properties, (ii) to examine any corporate, financial and operating records of the Company (or any of its subsidiaries), and make copies thereof or abstracts therefrom, and (iii) to discuss the Company’s business, operations, affairs, finances and accounts with its officers, directors and employees, in each case at the reasonable expense of the Company and at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably desired, upon reasonable advance written notice (which may be by e-mail) to the Company; provided that Tor (or such transferee) shall not exercise such rights more often than one time during any calendar quarter.

2.        Effectiveness. This letter agreement shall become effective automatically, and without any further action by any party hereto or any other person, upon the occurrence of the Closing under the Subscription Agreement.

3.         Representations. Each of the Company, Tempo and Tor represents and warrants that it is duly authorized and has the corporate and legal power and authority to enter into this letter agreement and take the acts and actions described herein.

4.         Confidentiality.

(a)         As used in this letter agreement, subject to Section 4(c) below, “Confidential Information” means any and all non-public financial information or other non-public information concerning the Company, its subsidiaries and their affiliates that may hereafter be disclosed to Tor by the Company, its subsidiaries, their affiliates or by any of the directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, advisors or other representatives (including financial advisors, accountants or legal counsel) (the “Representatives”) of the Company or its subsidiaries, including all notices, minutes, consents, materials, ideas or other information (to the extent constituting information concerning the Company, its subsidiaries and their affiliates that is non-public financial information or other non-public information) provided to Tor.

(b)        Except to the extent permitted by this Section 4(b) or by Section 4(c) or Section 4(d) below, Tor shall keep such Confidential Information strictly confidential and shall not use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than monitoring Tor’s investment in the Company and exercising Tor’s rights as an investor in the Company and its rights under this letter agreement; provided, that Tor may share Confidential Information with its affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, advisors, legal counsel and other representatives (each, a “Permitted Recipient”) who (a) have a need to know such information and (b) are informed of the confidential nature of such information; provided, further, that, subject to Section 4(e) below, the foregoing shall not apply to the extent Tor or any of the Permitted Recipients is requested or compelled to disclose Confidential Information by statute, rule, regulation, arbitral or judicial or regulatory process or otherwise requested by any governmental authority.

(c)         The term “Confidential Information” does not include information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than (a) as a result of a disclosure by Tor in violation of this letter agreement or (b) in violation of a confidentiality obligation to the Company or its subsidiaries known to Tor, (ii) is or becomes available to Tor or the Permitted Recipients on a non-confidential basis from a source not known by Tor or any of its affiliates to have an obligation of confidentiality to the Company or its subsidiaries, (iii) was already known to Tor or any of its affiliates or the Permitted Recipients at the time of disclosure, or (iv) is independently developed by Tor or any of its affiliates or the Permitted Recipients without reference to any Confidential Information disclosed to Tor.

(e)        In the event that Tor or any of the Permitted Recipients is required or compelled by statute, rule, regulation, arbitral or judicial process or otherwise requested by any governmental or regulatory authority to disclose the Confidential Information, Tor (or, if applicable, such Permitted Recipient) shall use commercially reasonable efforts, to the extent permitted and practicable, to provide the Company with prompt prior written notice of such requirement so that the Company or its subsidiaries or their affiliates may seek, at such their sole expense and cost, an appropriate protective order. If in the absence of a protective order, Tor or any of its affiliates or any Permitted Recipient is nonetheless legally required or compelled to disclose Confidential Information, such person may disclose only the portion of the Confidential Information or other information that it is so legally required or compelled or requested to be disclosed.

(f)         All Confidential Information disclosed by the Company, its subsidiaries or their Representatives to Tor is and will remain the property of the Company, so long as such information remains Confidential Information.

(g)        It is understood and acknowledged that neither the Company, its subsidiaries nor any Representative makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the Confidential Information or any component thereof.

(h)         Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the obligations of this Section 4 will automatically expire one (1) year after the termination of this letter agreement.

Interest shall commence with the date hereof and shall continue on the outstanding unpaid principal until paid in full or converted. Interest on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days for the actual number of days elapsed.

1.             Maturity. Unless earlier converted pursuant to the conversion provisions set forth herein, all outstanding principal and accrued interest under this Note (the “Outstanding Amount”) shall be due and payable by the Company on demand by the Lender at any time after November 15, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”).

2.             Priority. This Note will be subordinate in right of payment to all current and future Company indebtedness to banks, leasing or equipment financing institutions and other financial institutions engaged in the business of lending money, which is for money borrowed or purchase or leasing of equipment in the case of lease or other equipment financing, whether or not secured.

3.             Conversion of the Note. The Outstanding Amount will convert into securities of ACE Convergence Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company that will domesticate as a Delaware corporation prior to the closing of the Transactions (as defined below) (the “Issuer”), upon the earlier to occur of the closing of the Transactions and the closing of the first Qualified Financing (as defined below) following any termination of the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below), as applicable, in accordance with the following:

(a) effective upon the closing of the Transactions, the Outstanding Amount shall automatically be converted into shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Issuer at a conversion price of $10.00 per share, with any resulting fraction of a share rounded down to the nearest whole share. No payment will be made to Lender in lieu of any fractional shares to which Lender would otherwise have been entitled, and such amounts shall be extinguished without any further payment on the part of the Company. The “Transactions” means, collectively, the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 13, 2021 (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among the Issuer, Tempo and ACE Convergence Subsidiary Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer (“Tempo Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, among other things, Tempo Merger Sub will merge with and into Tempo, with Tempo surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer. Lender hereby agrees to execute and become party to all customary agreements that the Company reasonably requests in connection with the Transactions. As promptly as practicable after the conversion of this Note, the Company at its expense shall issue and deliver to the holder of this Note, upon surrender of this Note by Lender to the Company, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion. Upon the conversion of this Note, Lender shall have no further rights under such Note, whether or not such Note is surrendered; and

(b) effective upon the closing of the first Qualified Financing (as defined below) following any termination of the Business Combination Agreement, the Outstanding Amount shall automatically be converted into shares of the same class and series of capital stock of the Company issued to other investors in the Qualified Financing (the “Conversion Shares”) at a conversion price equal to the price paid per share for the Equity Securities (as defined below) by the other investors in the Qualified Financing (the “Conversion Price”), with any resulting fraction of a share rounded down to the nearest whole share. No payment will be made to Lender in lieu of any fractional shares to which Lender would otherwise have been entitled, and such amounts shall be extinguished without any further payment on the part of the Company.

The Company shall notify Lender in writing of the anticipated occurrence of a Qualified Financing at least five days prior to the closing date of the Qualified Financing, notifying Lender of the conversion to be effected and the terms under which the Equity Securities of the Company are anticipated to be sold in such Qualified Financing. The issuance of Conversion Shares pursuant to the conversion of this Note shall be upon and subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the Equity Securities sold in the Qualified Financing. Lender hereby agrees to execute and become party to all customary agreements that the Company reasonably requests in connection with such Qualified Financing. As promptly as practicable after the conversion of this Note, the Company at its expense shall issue and deliver to the holder of this Note, upon surrender of this Note by Lender to the Company, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion.

12.9         Delay or Omission; Waiver of Presentment. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right under this Note shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right of Lender, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver on any one occasion be deemed a bar to or waiver of the same or any other right on any future occasion. The Company and every endorser or guarantor of this Note, regardless of the time, order or place of signing, hereby waives presentment, demand, protest and notices of every kind and assents to any permitted extension of the time of payment and to the addition or release of any other party primarily or secondarily liable hereunder.

12.15       California Corporate Securities Law. THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THIS AGREEMENT HAS NOT BEEN QUALIFIED WITH THE COMMISSIONER OF CORPORATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE ISSUANCE OF SUCH SECURITIES OR THE PAYMENT OR RECEIPT OF ANY PART OF THE CONSIDERATION FOR SUCH SECURITIES PRIOR TO SUCH QUALIFICATION IS UNLAWFUL, UNLESS THE SALE OF SECURITIES IS EXEMPT FROM QUALIFICATION BY SECTION 25100, 25102 OR 25105 OF THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATIONS CODE. THE RIGHTS OF ALL PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT ARE EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON SUCH QUALIFICATION BEING OBTAINED, UNLESS THE SALE IS SO EXEMPT.

12.16       No Usury. This Note is hereby expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever, whether by reason of deferment or advancement of loan proceeds, acceleration of maturity of the loan evidenced hereby, or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender hereunder for the loan, use, forbearance or detention of money exceed the maximum interest rate permitted by the laws of the State of California. If at any time the performance of any provision hereof involves a payment exceeding the limit of the price that may be validly charged for the loan, use, forbearance or detention of money under applicable law, then automatically and retroactively, ipso facto, the obligation to be performed shall be reduced to such limit, it being the specific intent of the Company and Lender that all payments under this Note be credited first to interest as permitted by law, but not in excess of (a) the agreed rate of interest set forth herein or (b) that permitted by law, whichever is the lesser, and the balance toward the reduction of principal. The provisions of this Section 12.16 shall never be superseded or waived and shall control every other provision of this Note.
