Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 3D Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and 3D at Depth, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of ___________, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”).

C. The Holder is the record and/or beneficial owner of equity securities of the Company, which will be exchanged for common stock of Nauticus pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

D. As a condition of, and as a material inducement for the Company to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Holder has agreed to execute and deliver this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Lock-Up.

(a) During the Lock-up Period (as defined below), the Holder irrevocably agrees that it, he or she will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Lock-up Shares (as defined below), enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such Lock-up Shares, whether any of these transactions are to be settled by delivery of any such Lock-up Shares, in cash or otherwise, publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, or engage in any Short Sales (as defined below) with respect to any security of Nauticus.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, Nauticus will (i) place an irrevocable stop order on all Lock-up Shares, including those which may be covered by a registration statement, and (ii) notify Nauticus’ transfer agent in writing of the stop order and the restrictions on such Lock-up Shares under this Agreement and direct Nauticus’ transfer agent not to process any attempts by the Holder to resell or transfer any Lock-up Shares, except in compliance with this Agreement.

(c) For purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.

(d) For purpose of this Agreement, the “Lock-up Period” means the period that ends 180 days after the closing date of the Transaction; provided, that, in the event Nauticus completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of Nauticus’ stockholders having the right to exchange their shares for common stock, cash, securities or other property, then the Lock-Up Shares shall be released from the restrictions set forth herein to the extent necessary to allow such Holder to participate in such transaction.

The restrictions set forth herein shall not apply to: (1) transfers or distributions to the Holder’s current or former general or limited partners, managers or members, stockholders, other equity holders or direct or indirect affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) or to the estates of any of the foregoing; (2) transfers by bona fide gift to a member of the Holder’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is the Holder or a member of the Holder’s immediate family for estate planning purposes; (3) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of the Holder; (4) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, in each case where such transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement; or (5) transfers or distributions of, or other transactions involving, securities other than the Lock-up Shares (including, without limitation, securities acquired in the Transaction Financing or in open market transactions); provided, no transfer hereunder shall be valid or effective unless such transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as if she were an original party hereto.

In addition, the restrictions set forth herein shall not apply to any bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation, business combination, stock purchase or other similar transaction or series of related transactions after the Closing Date, if such transaction or transactions would result in a Change of Control; provided that in the event that such tender offer, merger, consolidation, business combination, stock purchase or transaction or series of related transactions is not completed, the Lock-up Shares shall remain subject to the restrictions set forth herein. A “Change of Control” means (whether by tender offer, merger, consolidation, asset sale or other similar transaction, whether in one or a series of related transactions): (a) the sale of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of Nauticus and Nauticus subsidiaries to a third-party Nauticus; (b) a sale resulting in no less than a majority of the voting power of Nauticus being held by person that did not own a majority of the voting power prior to such sale; or (c) a merger, consolidation, recapitalization or reorganization of Nauticus with or into a third-party Nauticus that results in the inability of the pre-transaction equity holders to designate or elect a majority of the Board of Directors (or its equivalent) of the resulting entity or its parent company. In the event that all or a portion of the securities subject to any other lock-up agreement entered into, or otherwise applicable, in connection with the Transaction are released early from the restrictions of such other such other lock-up agreement (whether by release, waiver, amendment, modification, termination or otherwise), the Lock-up Shares subject to this Agreement shall be released on a pro rata basis.

2. Representations and Warranties. Each of the parties hereto, by their respective execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby represents and warrants to the others and to all third party beneficiaries of this Agreement that (a) such party has the full right, capacity and authority to enter into, deliver and perform its respective obligations under this Agreement, (b) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such party and is the binding and enforceable obligation of such party, enforceable against such party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (c) the execution, delivery and performance of such party’s obligations under this Agreement will not conflict with or breach the terms of any other agreement, contract, commitment or understanding to which such party is a party or to which the assets or securities of such party are bound. Nauticus represents and warrants that each stockholder of the Company holding at least two percent (2%) of the outstanding shares of capital stock (including options) of the Company has entered into a lock-up agreement or other form of agreement on substantially the same terms as the terms provided for in this Agreement; provided, however, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, have each entered into a lock-up agreement which provides, with respect to ten percent (10%) of his lock-up shares, the lock-up period will end on the earlier of (i) the effective date of a registration statement on which such lock-up shares are included or (ii) the period that ends 90 days after the closing date of the Transaction; provided, further, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ will enter into a Small Stockholder Lock-Up Agreement (as defined in the Merger Agreement) upon the Transaction closing unless such requirement is waived by the Chief Legal Officer of Nauticus at the closing.
