On September 21, 2022, the board of directors (the “Board”) of Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) appointed Erin Clift to the Board. Ms. Clift was appointed to serve as a Class II director with a term expiring at the Company’s second annual general meeting of shareholders.
The Board appointed Ms. Clift, who was determined to be an “independent director” as defined in the applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and the applicable rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), to the Board’s Audit Committee as a member of the Audit Committee. In connection with such appointment, Brian Pitz resigned his roles as member of the Audit Committee and member of the Board. Mr. Pitz will remain Chief Financial Officer. In connection with Mr. Pitz resignation, Nicholas Shekerdemian, a member of the Audit Committee, was determined to qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the rules of the Commission.
Ms. Clift, 49, previously served as Special Advisor to the Company. Ms. Clift is a business and marketing executive with more than 25 years of experience building global consumer brands, leading product, consumer and business marketing, global communications, revenue strategies, business development and partners. Ms. Clift has expertise in building passion brands, winning teams and successful businesses at companies going through rapid growth or radical evolution. Since October 2021, Ms. Clift has served as Chief Marketing Officer of CrossFit, LLC, one of the most recognizable global fitness brands with more than 13,000 affiliated gyms in 155 countries and host to the world’s largest athletic competition. In her role, Ms. Clift is responsible for evolving CrossFit's brand and business strategy to meet the changing needs of today’s fitness consumer. From December 2017 to September 2021, Ms. Clift served as the Chief Marketing Officer at Waze, where she was responsible for the world’s largest community based navigation platform fueled by over 150 million active Wazers in more than 185 countries. In that role, she had overall responsibility for the Waze brand, partnerships and marketing and external communications worldwide. Before joining Waze, Ms. Clift served as Chief Marketing Officer at Kik, a mobile messaging platform, from February 2016 to November 2017. During her tenure, she was instrumental in the creation of Kin, a cryptocurrency to serve as the foundation of a decentralized ecosystem of digital services. Prior to Kik, Ms. Clift was the Vice President, Global Marketing & Partnerships at Spotify from December 2011 to January 2016, where she was responsible for consumer and business marketing, revenue expansion and strategy, brand partnerships, and agency programs. Ms. Clift came to Spotify from AOL, where she was SVP, Global Sales Development responsible for advertising revenue growth and creating their Branded Entertainment platform.

She was inducted to the AAF Hall of Achievements in 2012 and was recently named as one of Forbes top 50 game changing marketers for 2019. The Board believes Mr. Clift is qualified to serve as a director due to her extensive managerial, operational and oversight experience.

Inflection Point Acquisition Corp.

Re: Initial Public Offering
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter (this “Letter Agreement”) is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered into by and among Inflection Point Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as representative (the “Representative”) of the several underwriters (each, an “Underwriter” and collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to the underwritten initial public offering (the “Public Offering”), of 32,975,000 (the “Units”), each comprised of one of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant (each, a “Warrant”) entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described in the Prospectus (as defined below). The Units were sold in the Public Offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 and prospectus (the “Prospectus”) filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and are listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 8 hereof.
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned member of the board of directors of the Company (the “Director”), hereby agrees with the Company as follows:
| 1. | The Director agrees that if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with such proposed Business Combination, she shall (i) vote any Ordinary Shares (as defined below) owned by her in favor of any proposed Business Combination and (ii) not redeem any Ordinary Shares owned by her in connection with such shareholder approval. If the Company seeks to consummate a proposed Business Combination by engaging in a tender offer, the Director agrees that she will not sell or tender any Ordinary Shares owned by her in connection therewith. |
| 2. | The Director hereby agrees that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering, or such later period approved by the Company’s shareholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Charter”), the Director shall take all reasonable steps to cause the Company to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten (10) business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering (the “Offering Shares”), at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (as defined below), including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish all Public Shareholders’ (as defined below) rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements of applicable law. The Director agrees to not propose any amendment to the Charter (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the required time period set forth in the Charter or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides its Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Offering Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares. |
| 3. | The Director acknowledges that she has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or any other asset of the Company as a result of any liquidation of the Company with respect to the Founder Shares held by her. The Director hereby further waives, with respect to any Ordinary Shares held by her, if any, any redemption rights she may have in connection with (a) the consummation of a Business Combination, including, without limitation, any such rights available in the context of a shareholder vote to approve such Business Combination, or (b) a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Charter (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the Company has not consummated a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Charter or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity or in the context of a tender offer made by the Company to purchase Offering Shares (although the Director and her affiliates shall be entitled to redemption and liquidation rights with respect to any Offering Shares they hold if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Charter). |
| 4. | The Director hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (i) the Underwriters and the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by the Director of her obligations under paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4(a) and 4(b) as applicable, of this Letter Agreement, (ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (iii) the non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach. |
| (a) | The Director agrees that she shall not Transfer any Founder Shares (or any Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion thereof) until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (B) subsequent to the Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Company’s initial Business Combination or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, amalgamation, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property (the “Founder Shares Lock-up Period”). |
| (b) | The Director agrees that she shall not Transfer any Private Placement Warrants (or any Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants), until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination (the “Private Placement Warrants Lock-up Period”, together with the Founder Shares Lock-up Period, the “Lock-up Periods”). |
| (c) | Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in paragraphs 7(a) and 7(b), Transfers of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and the Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants that are held by the Director or any of her permitted transferees (that have complied with this paragraph 7(c)), are permitted (a) to the Company’s officers or directors, any affiliate or family member of any of the Company’s officers or directors, any members or partners of the Sponsor or their affiliates, any affiliates of the Sponsor, or any employees of such affiliates; (b) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of such individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of such individual’s immediate family, an affiliate of such individual or to a charitable organization; (c) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of such individual; (d) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) by private sales or transfers made in connection with any forward purchase agreement or similar arrangement or in connection with the consummation of an initial Business Combination at prices no greater than the price at which the securities were originally purchased; (f) in the event of the Company’s liquidation prior to the completion of an initial Business Combination; (g) by virtue of the laws of the Cayman Islands or the Sponsor’s limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the Sponsor; or (h) in the event of the Company’s liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the Company’s completion of an initial Business Combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e) or (g), these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement with the Company agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions herein and the other restrictions contained in this Agreement (including provisions relating to voting, the Trust Account and liquidating distributions). |

| 6. | Except as disclosed in the Prospectus, neither the Sponsor nor any officer, nor any affiliate of the Sponsor or any officer, nor any director of the Company, including the Director, shall receive from the Company any finder’s fee, reimbursement, consulting fee, non-cash payments, monies in respect of any repayment of a loan or other compensation prior to, or in connection with any services rendered in order to effectuate, the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is), other than the following, none of which will be made from the proceeds held in the Trust Account prior to the completion of the initial Business Combination: repayment of a loan and advances up to an aggregate of $300,000 made to the Company by the Sponsor; payment to the Sponsor for certain office space, utilities, secretarial and administrative support as may be reasonably required by the Company for a total of $15,000 per month; payment of customary fees to members of the board of directors of the Company for director services; reimbursement for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating, negotiating and completing an initial Business Combination, and repayment of loans, if any, and on such terms as to be determined by the Company from time to time, made by the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or any of the Company’s officers or directors to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, provided, that, if the Company does not consummate an initial Business Combination, a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account may be used by the Company to repay such loaned amounts so long as no proceeds from the Trust Account are used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period. |
