Explanation of Responses:

( 1 )As described in the issuer's registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-235158) (the "Registration Statement") under the heading "Description of Securities--Founder Shares," the shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class B Common Stock"), will automatically be converted into shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class A Common Stock"), at the time of the issuer's initial business combination, on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments described therein and have no expiration date. ( 2 )These shares represent Class B Common Stock held by CIIG Management LLC (the "Sponsor") that were acquired pursuant to a subscription agreement by and between the Sponsor and the issuer. On November 20, 2019, the issuer effected a stock dividend of 1.125 shares for each share of Class B Common Stock outstanding. On November 21, 2019, the Sponsor and the issuer entered into a cancellation agreement pursuant to which the Sponsor forfeited 646,875 shares of Class B Common Stock. The Class B Common Stock owned by the Sponsor includes up to 759,375 shares that are subject to forfeiture in the event the underwriters of the issuer's initial public offering do not exercise in full their over-allotment option as described in the issuer's Registration Statement. ( 3 )As a managing member of the Sponsor, the reporting person may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the shares of Class B Common Stock held directly by the Sponsor, and disclaims any beneficial ownership of the reported shares other than to the extent of any pecuniary interest he may have therein, directly or indirectly.

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
