Execution Version

INVESTORS’ RIGHTS AGREEMENT

THIS INVESTORS’ RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of December 18, 2020, by and among Clever Leaves Holdings Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia, Canada (the “Company”), and the undersigned parties listed under Investors on the signature page hereto (each, an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”).

WHEREAS, the Company is party to that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2020 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “BCA”), by and among the Company, Schultze Special Purpose Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Schultze”), Novel Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Clever Leaves International Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia, Canada, pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into Schultze (with Schultze being the surviving entity) in exchange for Schultze’s stockholders receiving Common Shares of the Company as provided by the BCA; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the BCA, the Company has agreed to grant to the Investors certain rights with respect to nomination of directors and the registration of the Registrable Securities (as defined below) on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

2.1.1.       Request for Registration. At any time and from time to time on or after the expiration of the Lockup Period (as such term is defined in the Transaction Support Agreement), Investors holding at least a majority in interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by all Investors (such Investors, the “Initiating Holders”) may make a written demand for registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Registrable Securities (a “Demand Registration”). Any demand for a Demand Registration shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. The Company will notify all holders of Registrable Securities of the demand, and each holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the Demand Registration (each such holder including shares of Registrable Securities in such registration, a “Demanding Holder”) shall so notify the Company, and provide the information request by the Company to prepare the Registration Statement, within five (5) days after the receipt by the holder of the notice from the Company. Upon any such request and provision of such information, the Demanding Holders shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject to Section 2.1.4 and the provisos set forth in Section 3.1.1. The Company shall not be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of two (2) Demand Registrations under this Section 2.1.1 in respect of all Demand Registrations initiated by the Investors.

2.1.2.       Effective Registration. A registration will not count as a Demand Registration until the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective and the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court, the Registration Statement with respect to such Demand Registration will be deemed not to have been declared effective, 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 thereafter elect to continue the offering; provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated to file a second Registration Statement until a Registration Statement that has been filed is counted as a Demand Registration or is terminated. For the avoidance of doubt, any terminated Registration Statement shall be counted as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.1.

2.1.3.       Underwritten Offering. If a majority in interest of the Demanding Holders so elect and such holders so advise the Company as part of their written demand for a Demand Registration, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering. In such event, the right of any holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Initiating Holders.

2.1.4.       Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises, in its good faith opinion, the Company and the Demanding Holders that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other shares of Common Shares or other securities which the Company desires to sell and the shares of Common Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other shareholders of the Company who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such 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 shares, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Shares”), then the Company shall include in such registration: (i) first, the Registrable Securities as to which Demand Registration has been requested by the Initiating Holders (pro rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such person has requested be included in such registration, regardless of the number of shares held by each such person (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the shares of Common Shares or other securities that any other Demanding Holders desire to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the shares of Common Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares have not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the shares of Common Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

2.1.5.       Demand Registration Withdrawal. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwriting or are not entitled to include all of their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw from such offering by giving written notice to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration then such registration shall count as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.1.

2.2.1.       Piggy-Back Rights. If at any time on or after the date 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, by the Company for its own account or for shareholders of the Company for their account (or by the Company and by shareholders of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company, (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan or (v) for the registration of shares or equity securities underlying any Warrants, then the Company shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall 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 or Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Registrable Securities as such holders may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice, provided such holders also provide the information requested by the Company to prepare the Registration Statement within five (5) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration”). Subject to Section 2.2.2, the Company shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back Registration.

2.2.2.       Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities that in its good faith opinion the dollar amount or number of shares of Common Shares which the Company desires to sell, taken together with shares of 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, the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested under this Section 2.2, and the shares of Common Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then the Company shall include in any such registration:

(a)       If the registration is undertaken for the Company’s account: (A) the shares of Common Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Common Shares or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (C) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Common Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and

(b)       If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities, (A) first, the shares of Common Shares or other securities for the account of the demanding persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Common Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), collectively the shares of Common Shares or other securities comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the shares of Common Shares or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

2.2.3.       Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Company (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement.

2.2.4.       Registrations on Form S-3. The holders of Registrable Securities may at any time and from time to time request in writing that the Company register the resale of any or all of such Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration which may be available at such time (“Form S-3”) so long as such request covers at least $25 million worth of the market value of Common Shares; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect such request through an underwritten offering. Upon receipt of such written request, the Company will give written notice of the proposed registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities, and each holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in such registration on such Form S-3 shall so notify the Company, and provide the information request by the Company to prepare the Registration Statement, within five (5) days after the receipt by the holder of the notice from the Company. As soon as practicable thereafter, the Company shall effect the registration of all or such portion of such holder’s or holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company, if any; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.2.4: (i) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) if the holders of the Registrable Securities, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $25 million. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.2.4 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.1.

3.1.       Filings; Information. Whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof as expeditiously as reasonably possible, and in connection with any such request:

3.1.1.       Filing Registration Statement. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts after receipt of a request for a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement on any form for which the Company then qualifies or which counsel for the Company shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale of all Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof, and shall use its commercially reasonably efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and, upon request of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for the period required by Section 3.1.3; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to defer any Demand Registration for up to sixty (60) days, and any Piggy-Back Registration for such period as may be applicable to deferment of any demand registration to which such Piggy-Back Registration relates, in each case if the Company shall furnish to the holders a certificate signed by the President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such Registration Statement to be effected at such time; provided further, however, that the Company shall not have the right to exercise the right set forth in the immediately preceding proviso more than twice in any 365-day period in respect of a Demand Registration hereunder.

3.1.2.       Copies. The Company shall, prior to filing a Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to 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 holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration or legal counsel for any such holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such holders.

3.1.3.       Amendments and Supplements. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act in order to enable the disposition of all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such Registration Statement.

3.1.4.       Notification. After the filing of a Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly after such filing, notify the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement of such filing, and shall further notify such holders promptly and confirm such advice in writing in all events within five (5) business days of the occurrence of any of the following: (i) when such Registration Statement becomes effective; (ii) when any post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement becomes effective; (iii) the issuance or threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order; and (iv) any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or any prospectus relating thereto or for additional information or of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (a “Misstatement”), and promptly make available to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment; except that before filing with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, the Company shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement and to the legal counsel for any such holders, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed sufficiently in advance of filing to provide such holders and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comment thereon.

3.1.5.       State Securities Laws Compliance. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable 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 reasonably 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 reasonably 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 or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act.

3.1.6.       Agreements for Disposition. The Company shall enter into customary agreements (including, if applicable in an underwritten offering, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. No holder of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement shall be required to make any representations or warranties in the underwriting agreement except, if applicable, with respect to such holder’s organization, good standing, authority, title to Registrable Securities, lack of conflict of such sale with such holder’s material agreements and organizational documents, and with respect to written information relating to such holder that such holder has furnished in writing expressly for inclusion in such Registration Statement.

3.1.7.       Cooperation. The chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, the principal accounting officer of the Company and all other officers and members of the management of the Company shall cooperate fully in any offering of Registrable Securities hereunder, which cooperation shall include, without limitation, the preparation of the Registration Statement with respect to such offering and all other offering materials and related documents, and participation in meetings with Underwriters, attorneys, accountants and potential investors in an underwritten offering.

3.1.8.       Records. The Company shall make available for inspection by any seller of Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement, any Underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other professional retained by any such seller of Registrable Securities or any Underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, as shall be necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any of them in connection with such Registration Statement.

3.1.9.       Opinions and Comfort Letters. The Company shall obtain an opinion or comfort letter from the Company’s legal counsel and independent public accountants delivered to any Underwriter in the event of an underwritten offering, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by any opinions or comfort letters as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the participating holders.

3.1.10.       Earnings Statement. The Company shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and the Securities Act, and make available to its shareholders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of twelve (12) months, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

3.1.11.       Listing. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities included in any registration to be listed on such exchanges or otherwise designated for trading in the same manner as similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or designated.

3.1.12.       Road Show. If the registration involves the registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $25,000,000, the Company shall use its 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 in any underwritten offering.

3.1.13.       Other. The Company shall otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Investors, in connection with any Registration.

3.2.       Obligation to Suspend Distribution. Upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3.1.4(iv) or that a Registration Statement contains a Misstatement, each holder of Registrable Securities included in any Registration shall immediately discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder receives the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.1.4(iv) or is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus contained in such Registration Statement may be resumed, and, if so directed by the Company, each such holder will deliver to the Company all written copies, other than permanent file copies then in such holder’s possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. The Company shall immediately notify the holders of Registrable Securities of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.2.

3.3.       Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, any Piggy-Back Registration pursuant to Section 2.2, and any registration on Form S-3 effected pursuant to Section 2.2.4, and all of the following expenses incurred in performing or complying with its other obligations under this Agreement: (i) all registration and filing fees; (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or “blue sky” laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities); (iii) printing expenses; (iv) the Company’s internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees); (v) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities as required by Section 3.1.11; (vi) Financial Industry Regulatory Authority fees; (vii) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and reasonable fees and expenses for independent certified public accountants retained by the Company (including the expenses or costs associated with the delivery of any opinions or comfort letters requested pursuant to Section 3.1.9); (viii) the reasonable fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration and (ix) the reasonable and documented fees and expenses, not to exceed $75,000 in connection with any Registration Statement, of one legal counsel selected by the holders of a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities included in such registration. The Company shall have no obligation to pay any underwriting discounts or selling commissions attributable to the Registrable Securities being sold by the holders thereof, which underwriting discounts or selling commissions shall be borne by such holders. Additionally, in an underwritten offering, all selling shareholders and the Company shall bear the expenses of the Underwriter Pro Rata in proportion to the respective amount of shares each is selling in such offering.

3.4.       Information. The holders of Registrable Securities shall provide such information as may reasonably be requested by the Company, or the managing Underwriter, if any, in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement, including amendments and supplements thereto, in order to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 2 and in connection with the Company’s obligation to comply with federal, provincial and applicable state securities laws.

4.1.       Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, each Investor whose Registrable Securities are covered by a Registration Statement, such Investor’s officers, directors and each Person, if any, who controls such Investor (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, an “Investor Indemnified Party”), from and against any out-of-pocket expenses, losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, “Losses”), caused by any Misstatement or alleged Misstatement contained in any Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration; and the Company shall promptly reimburse the Investor Indemnified Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Investor Indemnified Party in connection with investigating and defending any such Loses; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Losses arises out of or is based upon any Misstatement made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company, in writing, by such selling holder expressly for use therein. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company also shall indemnify any Underwriter of the Registrable Securities, their officers, directors, and each person who controls such Underwriter to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Investor Indemnified Parties. It is agreed that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

4.2.       Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.4.3 hereof, each selling holder of Registrable Securities will, in the event that any registration is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling holder, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each Underwriter (if any), and each other selling holder and each other person, if any, who controls another selling holder or such Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any Losses, insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon any Misstatement or alleged Misstatement contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such selling holder expressly for use therein, and shall reimburse the Company, its directors and officers, and each other selling holder or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such Loss. Each selling holder’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling holder.

4.3.       Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any person of any notice of any Loss in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, such person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other person for indemnification hereunder, notify such other person (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the Loss; provided, however, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or action brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of such claim or action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that in any action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written advice of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of any Losses for which the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder if such settlement or judgment includes any non-monetary remedies, requires an admission of fault or culpability on the part of the Indemnified Party or does not include an unconditional release from all liability of the Indemnified Party in respect of such Losses.

4.4.       Contribution.

4.4.1.       If the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of any Loss referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such Loss. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the Misstatement relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such Misstatement.

4.4.2.       The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 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 the immediately preceding Section 4.4.1.

4.4.3.       The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any Loss referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

5.1.       Rule 144. The Company covenants that it shall file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and shall take such further action as the holders of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission.

6.1.       Director Nomination Rights.

6.1.1.       For so long as the Minimum Holding Condition is satisfied, the Investors holding a majority in interest of the SPAC Shares then outstanding (the “SPAC Majority Holders”) shall have the right to nominate, collectively, one person (the “Nominee”) to the Board of Directors for election to the Board of Directors by giving written notice to the Company not later than twenty (20) days after receiving notice of the date of the applicable meeting of shareholders provided to the Investors, provided that the Nominee has: (a) provided the Company with the Nominee’s written consent to a customary background check, which consent shall be provided promptly after the Nominee is proposed; (b) completed a reasonably satisfactory interview with the Nominating and Governance Committee (or similarly designated committee), which shall be completed as promptly as practicable following receipt of a completed director questionnaire; (c) provided the Company with a completed director questionnaire (in the form to be provided by the Company within three (3) business days of being identified) and such other information required as may be reasonably requested by the Board of Directors; (d) agreed to take all necessary action not be considered to be “overboarded” under the applicable policies of Institutional Shareholder Services, Inc. (“ISS”) and Glass Lewis & Co., LLC (“Glass Lewis”) as a result of his or her appointment to the Board of Directors; and (e) qualifies as an Independent Director. In the event the Nominating and Governance Committee declines to approve a Nominee, the SPAC Majority Holders may propose a new Nominee, subject to the approval process described above, until a Nominee is approved in accordance with this Section 6.1.1. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Minimum Holding Condition” shall be deemed to be satisfied until the first such time that Investors (together with their respective Affiliates) cease to Beneficially Own collectively a number of Common Shares equal to or greater than: (i) 50% of the total number of Common Shares held by the Investors on the date hereof (as the same may be adjusted by share splits, reverse splits, share dividends, recapitalizations or other similar events) and (ii) 2.0% of the then-issued and outstanding Common Shares, as determined on a fully diluted basis, including the Earn-Out Shares for so long as the Earn-Out Target Conditions pertaining to such Earn-Out Shares remain capable of being satisfied; provided that if the Investors do not satisfy clause (ii) of the Minimum Holding Condition at closing of the transactions contemplated by the BCA, the Minimum Holding Condition shall nevertheless be deemed to be satisfied until such time that the Investors (or any of their respective Affiliates) sell, transfer or otherwise divest any Common Shares, in which case the Minimum Holding Condition shall immediately cease to be satisfied.

6.1.2.       Following approval of a Nominee by the Board of Directors, the Company shall take all actions necessary to ensure that: (i) the applicable Nominee is included in the Board of Director’s slate of nominees to the shareholders of the Company for each election of directors and recommended by the Board of Directors at any meeting of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors; (ii) the Nominee up for election is included in the proxy statement prepared by management of the Company in connection with the Company’s soliciting proxies or consents in favor of the foregoing for every meeting of the shareholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board of Directors, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written resolution of the shareholders of the Company or the Board of Directors with respect to the election of members of the Board of Directors; and (iii) such Nominee receives the same level of support as is provided for the other director nominees of the Company with respect to the applicable meeting of stockholders or consent solicitation. In addition, each Investor agrees with the Company that such Investor shall vote in favor of each person to be appointed or nominated, as the case may be, for election to the Board of Directors and who has been recommended by the Board of Directors for such appointment or nomination at every meeting of the shareholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board of Directors, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written resolution of the shareholders of the Company or the Board of Directors with respect to the election of members of the Board of Directors.

6.1.3.       If a vacancy occurs because of the death, disability, disqualification, resignation or removal of a SPAC Director or for any other reason, and at such time, the Minimum Holding Condition is satisfied then SPAC Majority Holders shall be entitled to designate such person’s successor, and the Company shall, within ten (10) days of such designation, take all necessary actions within its control such that such vacancy shall be filled with such successor Nominee, it being understood that any such successor designee shall serve the remainder of the term of the director whom such designee replaces.

6.1.4.       If at any time, the Minimum Holding Condition cease to be satisfied, then within ten (10) days of such occurring, the SPAC Director shall tender his or her resignation to the Board of Directors for the Board of Director’s consideration. The Investors’ board designation right pursuant to this Section 6 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the first time the Investors cease to satisfy the Minimum Holding Condition and shall not be reinstated under any circumstances.

6.2.       Director Consent Rights. If (i) at the time of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the BCA, the Board of Directors is composed of five (5) or fewer directors, (ii) the Company proposes for the number of directors comprising the Board of Directors to be greater than five (5) directors and (iii) at the time the Company makes such proposal, the Minimum Holding Condition is satisfied, then prior to the nomination (or, if there is no nomination, the appointment) of a sixth individual to the Board of Directors (an “Additional Director”), the SPAC Majority Holders shall have the right to consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to the nomination (or, if there is no nomination, the appointment) of the Additional Director; provided, however, that such right to consent with respect to such Additional Director shall expire upon an Additional Director becoming a member of the Board of Directors in accordance with the requirements of this sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, if the SPAC Majority Holders do not provide consent to the nomination of an Additional Director in accordance with this Section 6.2 (and the refusal to provide consent was reasonable), the Company may propose a new Additional Director, and such nomination (or, if there is no nomination, the appointment) of such Additional Director shall be subject to the approval process described above, until the SPAC Majority Holders shall have consented to the nomination (or, if there is no nomination, the appointment) and such Additional Director shall have begun service as a member of the Board of Directors.

This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the Company hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by the Company in whole or in part.

Effective as of the Closing of the transactions contemplated by the BCA, Holdco shall be deemed to be “the Company” for all purposes of this Agreement.”

Section 3. Exhibit A to the Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the revised Exhibit A attached to this Amendment.

Section 4. All other provisions of the Agreement shall remain unaffected by the terms hereof.

Section 5. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the respective parties hereto and their legal representatives, successors and assigns.

Section 6. The Agreement and this Amendment constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as amended by this Amendment, the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

Section 7. This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each one of which shall constitute an original and may be delivered by facsimile transmission and together shall constitute one instrument.

Section 8. This Amendment shall for all purposes be deemed to be made under and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to conflicts of law principle that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereby agrees that any action, proceeding, or claim against it arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and irrevocably submits to such personal jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive.

AND WHEREAS, on March 12, 2020 the Issuer changed its name from Northern Swan Holdings, Inc. to “Clever Leaves International Inc.”;

AND WHEREAS, the Agent, the Issuer, the Guarantor, the other Secured Parties and GLAS USA LLC (the “Paying Agent”), among others, have entered into an amended and restated intercreditor and collateral agency agreement dated May 10, 2019 (as amended, amended and restated, renewed, extended, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor and Collateral Agency Agreement”) to secure and confirm the relative priority of the obligations owing to present and future Secured Parties;

AND WHEREAS, in connection with a corporate reorganization being completed by the Issuer and certain of its affiliates and subsidiaries, the Guarantor has agreed to execute and deliver this Guarantee in favour of the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the Noteholders agreeing to continue to extend certain credit in favour of the Issuer under the terms of the Notes, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

Article I - Definitions

For purposes of this Guarantee, capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Notes, and the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Agent” is defined in the Preamble hereof.

“Guaranteed Obligations” is defined in Section 2.01.

“Guarantor” is defined in the Preamble hereof.

“Secured Parties” means collectively, the Agent, the Noteholders and each of their respective successors and assigns and “Secured Party” means any of them.

“Taxes” means any and all present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, charges, fees or withholdings imposed, levied, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, together with any interest, additions to tax or penalties imposed thereon and with respect thereto.

Article II - AGREEMENT TO GUARANTEE OBLIGATIONS

The Guarantor, hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety,

all such obligations in subsections (a) and (b) above, whether now or hereafter existing, being referred to collectively as the “Guaranteed Obligations”. The Guarantor further agrees that all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations may be increased, extended, substituted, amended, renewed or otherwise modified without notice to or consent from the Guarantor and such actions shall not affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder.

Liability of the Guarantor to make payment under this Guarantee shall arise immediately upon delivery by the Agent to the Guarantor of a written demand for payment.

The Guarantor’s liability, whether as a guarantor, indemnitor, or primary obligor, bears interest from the date that the Agent makes demand, both before and after demand, default, or judgment and until actual payment in full, at the highest interest rate applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations, calculated and payable in accordance with the Notes. For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest applicable to amounts owing under this Guarantee will be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year. Whenever interest is to be calculated on the basis of any period of time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate determined by that calculation is equivalent is the rate so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in that calendar year and divided by that period of time.

The Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time all or part of any payment of any Guaranteed Obligation is voided, rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Secured Party or any other person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or any other Obligor or otherwise.

Article III - GUARANTEE ABSOLUTE AND UNCONDITIONAL; WAIVERS

The Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Notes and the other Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order of any Governmental Authority now or hereafter in effect.
