Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Business Combination Agreement.

The Business Combination Agreement provides for, among other things, the consummation of the following transactions (the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, collectively, the “Business Combination”):

(i) CSTA will merge with and into Merger Sub 1 (the “Initial Merger”), with Merger Sub 1 being<br>the surviving company (as defined in the Cayman Act) and remaining a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo, and CSTA will cease to exist and<br>will be struck off the Register of Companies in the Cayman Islands. Immediately following the Initial Merger, Merger Sub 2 will become<br>a direct wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo and Merger Sub 2 will merge with and into HiTech, with HiTech being the surviving entity and<br>becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo, on the terms and subject to the conditions in the Business Combination Agreement;
(ii) each unit of CSTA (which was issued by CSTA in CSTA’s initial public offering or the exercise or<br>the underwriters’ overallotment option) issued and outstanding prior to the Initial Merger will be automatically detached and deemed<br>to consist of (y) one Class A ordinary share of CSTA, par value $0.0001 per share (the “CSTA Class A Ordinary Shares”) and<br>(z) one-third of a warrant of CSTA (“CSTA Warrant”);
--- ---
(iii) (A) each issued and outstanding Class B ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of CSTA (the “CSTA<br>Class B Ordinary Shares”) will automatically convert into a CSTA Class A Ordinary Share, and (B) each CSTA Class A Ordinary Share<br>(for clarity, including each converted CSTA Class B Ordinary Share) issued and outstanding will automatically be cancelled, cease to exist<br>and exchanged for one newly issued share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of PubCo (the “PubCo Common Shares”);

(iv) Intercompany amounts or obligations funded by Jindalee Lithium Limited, HiTech’s parent (“Jindalee”),<br>as a loan to HiTech, (a) existing as of September 3, 2025 will be settled at the Closing through the issuance of PubCo Loan Warrants,<br>with the number of PubCo Loan Warrants equal to (y) the principal amount outstanding under the applicable Existing Jindalee Intercompany<br>Amounts divided by (z) $1.50 and (b) incurred after that date and prior to the Closing in order to finance ordinary course operations<br>of HiTech or HiTech Transaction Expenses will, at Jindalee’s election prior to the Initial Merger Effective Time, either be settled<br>in cash or converted into PubCo Common Shares at a 15% discount to the IPO Price per Share;
--- ---
(v) (a) Existing Sponsor Loans will be converted at the Initial Closing, into PubCo Loan Warrants, with the<br>number of PubCo Loan Warrants equal to (y) the principal amount outstanding under the applicable Sponsor Loans divided by (z) $1.50, (b)<br>Continuing Sponsor Loans used to finance SPAC Transaction Expenses or Other Transaction Expenses that are due and payable prior to the<br>Acquisition Closing will be repaid in cash at the Acquisition Closing, and (c) Continuing Sponsor Non-Transaction Loans used other than<br>to finance SPAC Transaction Expenses or Other Transaction Expenses will be converted into PubCo Loan Warrants at the Initial Closing,<br>with the number of PubCo Loan Warrants equal to (y) the principal amount outstanding under the applicable Sponsor Loans divided by (z)<br>$1.50, immediately prior to the Initial Merger Effective Time;

If the Business Combination Agreement is validly terminated, none of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement will have any liability or any further obligation under the Business Combination Agreement, except in the case of a willful and material breach or fraud and for customary obligations that survive the termination thereof (such as confidentiality obligations); provided that, if the Business Combination Agreement is terminated (i) by written notice from CSTA or HiTech to the other upon the failure to obtain the Required Shareholder Approval at the Jindalee Shareholder Meeting duly convened therefor or at any adjournment or postponement thereof taken in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement or the Shareholder Support Agreement and (y) if Jindalee effected a Change of Company Recommendation prior to the Jindalee Shareholders Meeting at which a vote for the Required Parent Shareholder Approval was actually taken or (z) as a result of the failure to receive the Required Parent Shareholder Approval following such time as a certain Company Parent Acquisition Transaction occurred at the Jindalee level, (ii) by written notice from CSTA to HiTech prior to the receipt of the Required Parent Shareholder Approval if the Jindalee Board effects a Change of Company Recommendation, or (iii) by written notice from HiTech to CSTA prior to the receipt of the Required Parent Shareholder Approval if the Jindalee Board authorized HiTech or Jindalee to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement after the termination of this Agreement, to the extent permitted by and in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, HiTech will pay to CSTA its reasonable and documented expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions through the date the Business Combination Agreement is terminated, which will not exceed $6,000,000.

A copy of the Business Combination Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto. The Business Combination Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the respective parties made to each other as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the respective parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating such agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Business Combination Agreement are also modified in important part by the underlying disclosure schedules which are not filed publicly and which are subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to stockholders and were used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. CSTA does not believe that these schedules contain information that is material to an investment decision.

Convertible PreferredShare Purchase Agreement

Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, on April 9, 2026, Endurance Antarctica Partners II, LLC (the “Purchaser”), an affiliate of Antarctica Capital and the Sponsor, entered into a securities purchase agreement with Jindalee and HiTech (the “Convertible Preferred SPA”), pursuant to which the Purchaser (A) purchased from HiTech 1,550 shares of 12.0% Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”), having the rights and privileges set forth in the Certificate of Designation included as an exhibit to the Convertible Preferred SPA (the “Certificate of Designation”), for an aggregate purchase price of $1,550,000, and (B) committed to purchase $2,500,000 in newly issued equity or equity-linked securities of PubCo, on substantially the same terms as PIPE Financing Agreements to be executed in connection with the Business Combination, subject to certain terms and conditions, including that the “Minimum Cash Condition” in the Business Combination Agreement is satisfied and not waived (unless Purchaser consents to such waiver) at the time of the Closing. Pursuant to the Convertible Preferred SPA, the Preferred Stock will automatically be cancelled and exchanged for Preferred Stock of PubCo at the time of the Closing, and PubCo will issue a number of warrants to Purchaser or its permitted transferees that is equal to the Accrued Value (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) divided by the Conversion Price (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), in each case, measured as of the date of Closing (the “Warrants”). Such securities will be issued in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The PubCo Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants will be included as “Registrable Securities” under a Registration Rights Agreement to be entered into at the Closing.

If any securities are issued and sold in a PIPE in connection with the Business Combination with terms more favorable to the purchaser thereof than the terms set forth in the Convertible Preferred SPA applicable to Purchaser (including, without limitation, valuation, conversion price or mechanics, mandatory or optional redemption, discount, warrant coverage, liquidation preference, collateral, restrictive covenants, anti-dilution protection, or other economic or governance right), then the parties to the Convertible Preferred SPA have agreed, at the option of the Purchaser, to promptly amend any applicable documents to extend such more favorable term or terms to the Purchaser.

In connection with such purchase of Preferred Stock, Jindalee and Purchaser executed a Parent Guarantee, dated as of April 9, 2026, pursuant to which Jindalee agreed to guarantee HiTech’s payment obligation in connection with the mandatory redemption of the Preferred Stock and any Accrued Value (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) if the Business Combination Agreement is terminated.

5

The Preferred Stock will vote together with the PubCo Common Shares after the Closing and shall rank senior to all existing and future classes of equity securities with respect to dividend and liquidation rights. The Preferred Stock will accrue dividends daily at the rate of (a) if paid in kind, 12.0% per annum of the original issue price, plus the amount of previously accrued dividends paid in kind, or (b) if paid in cash, 10.0% per annum of the original issue price, plus the amount of previously accrued dividends. Such dividends compounded quarterly. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), the dividend rate shall automatically increase to 15.0% until such Event of Default is cured or waived. The initial conversion price for the Preferred Stock will be $1,000.00 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. Starting on the six month anniversary of the Closing and thereafter, on a quarterly basis through the second anniversary of the closing of the Closing, the conversion price will be subject to a downward adjustment based on the 20-day trailing volume-weighted average price of PubCo Common Shares, provided that the conversion price will not be reduced below $7.50 per share. Following the Closing, PubCo may redeem the Preferred Stock subject to certain premiums to the Accrued Value and the Preferred Stock will be redeemable at the option of the Purchaser at 100% of the Accrued Value after the fifth anniversary of the Closing. In the event of a change of control of PubCo after the Closing, PubCo will be required to offer to repurchase the Preferred Stock for cash at the greater of (i) the applicable call premium multiple of the Accrued Value, and (ii) the amount holder of the Preferred Stock would receive if the Preferred Stock were converted into PubCo Common Shares. Commencing on the day after the Closing, as long as the Purchaser owns at least 20% of the Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of the Closing, PubCo or any of its successors shall not, without the affirmative vote or action by written consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock then outstanding: (i) alter or change the rights, preferences, or privileges of the Preferred Stock; (ii) increase or decrease the authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock, or issue any additional shares thereof; (iii) create any new class or series of shares having rights, preferences, or privileges senior to or on parity with the Preferred Stock; or (iv) amend, replace, or repeal the certificate of incorporation or bylaws in a manner that adversely affects the Preferred Stock.

The Warrants to be issued at the Closing pursuant to the Convertible Preferred Share Purchase Agreement will expire five years from the Closing and will be initially exercisable at $11.50 per share, subject to the same anti-dilution and other adjustments applicable to the Preferred Stock.

The Convertible Preferred SPA, the Certificate of Designation, the form of Warrant, and the Parent Guarantee are filed with this Current Report as Exhibit 10.5, Exhibit 10.6 and Exhibit 10.7, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference, and the foregoing descriptions of such documents are qualified in their entirety by reference thereto.

These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to (1) statements regarding estimates and forecasts of financial, performance and operational metrics, projections of market opportunity, anticipated size of the lithium resources, expected support from Jindalee, expected NPV or post-tax IRR, and planned production per year; (2) references with respect to the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination and the projected future financial and operational performance of PubCo following the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of PubCo to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships and retain its management and key employees; (3) the sources and uses of cash of the Business Combination; (4) the anticipated capitalization and enterprise value of PubCo following the consummation of the Business Combination; (5) statements regarding PubCo’s operations following the Business Combination; (6) the amount of redemption requests made by CSTA’s public shareholders; (7) current and future potential commercial relationships; (8) plans, intentions or future operations of PubCo or HiTech, including relating to the finalization, completion of any studies, feasibility studies or other assessments or relating to attainment, retention or renewal of any assessments, permits, licenses or other governmental notices or approvals, or the commencement or continuation of any construction or operations of plants or facilities; (9) the ability of PubCo or CSTA to issue equity or equity-linked securities in the future or raise additional capital in a PIPE financing; (10) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Contracting Parties; (11) changes to the proposed structure of the Business Combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations; (12) the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards following the Business Combination; (13) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of CSTA, PubCo or HiTech; (14) the availability of federal, state or local government support, and risks related to extensive regulation, compliance obligations and rigorous enforcement by federal, state, and non-U.S. governmental authorities; and (15) expectations related to the terms and timing of the Business Combination and the ability of the parties to successfully consummate the Business Combination. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in the Current Report, and on the current expectations of the Contracting Parties’ management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Contracting Parties. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, as set forth in the slide entitled “Risk Factors” in the investor presentation published on the date hereof and those set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factor Summary” in CSTA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report”), and in those other documents that CSTA has filed, or that PubCo and CSTA will file, with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements.

69

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Sections 6.3, if the Company has received after the date of this Agreement a bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal that the Company Parent Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside counsel, constitutes a Superior Proposal, and such Company Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach Section 6.3 (other than a breach that is immaterial and results from a Company action that was not reasonably anticipated by the Company to result in such breach), the Company Parent Board may at any time prior to the receipt of the Required Parent Shareholder Approval, (i) effect a Change of Company Recommendation with respect to such Superior Proposal and/or (ii) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(g) to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement, in either case if the Company Parent Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisors that the failure to take such action would be likely to be a breach of its fiduciary duties or statutory duties to the stockholders of the Company Parent and subject to compliance with the requirements of this Section 6.3(e). The Company Parent may not effect a Change of Company Recommendation pursuant to this Section 6.3(e) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(g) to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement, unless the Company has provided to SPAC at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice (the “Notice Period”) of the Company Parent’s intention to take such action, which notice will include that (x) after complying in all respects with Section 6.3(a) (other than a breach that is immaterial and results from a Company action that was not reasonably anticipated by the Company to result in such breach), the Company Board and Company Parent Board (or any of their Affiliates) has received a bona fide unsolicited Company Acquisition Proposal that has not been withdrawn, (y) the Company Parent Board concluded in good faith that such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, and (z) an unredacted copy of such Superior Proposal and all related documentation (including the definitive transaction agreement (and related schedules and exhibits) to be entered into by the Company or Company Parent in respect of such Superior Proposal that are the basis of the Change of Company Recommendation or termination pursuant to Section 10.1(g), the identity of the Person or “group” of Persons making such Superior Proposal and, if applicable and to the extent received by the Company, financing documentation), and:

(i) during the Notice Period, if requested by SPAC, the Company will have, and will have caused its legal and financial advisors to have, engaged in good faith negotiations with the SPAC regarding any amendment to this Agreement proposed in writing by SPAC and intended to cause the relevant Company Acquisition Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal; and

(ii) the Company Parent Board will have considered in good faith any adjustments and/or proposed amendments to this Agreement (including a change to the price terms hereof) and the other agreements contemplated hereby that may be irrevocably offered in writing by SPAC (the “Proposed Changed Terms”) no later than 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the last day of the Notice Period (or such other time as mutually agreed by SPAC and the Company in writing) and have determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside counsel, that the Superior Proposal would continue to constitute a Superior Proposal and that the failure to take such action would likely constitute a breach of its fiduciary or statutory duties to the shareholders of the Company Parent if such Proposed Changed Terms were to be given effect, taking into account all of the terms and conditions of the Proposed Changed Terms and the Company Acquisition Proposal.

70

In the event of any material revisions to such Superior Proposal offered in writing by the party making such Superior Proposal (including any change in purchase price), the Company must deliver a new written notice to SPAC and must again comply with the requirements of this Section 6.3(e) with respect to such new written notice.

For clarity, an equity or similar investment by the Company Parent in the Company will not be considered a “Company Acquisition Proposal”.

71

(ii) “Company Board Recommendation” means a statement to the effect that Company Parent Board has unanimously recommended that the Company Parent’s shareholders vote in favor of the Transactions at the Company Parent Shareholders Meeting called for the purpose of voting to approve the Acquisition Merger, and that each Company Parent Board director intends to vote all shares of the Company Parent held or controlled by them, or that they direct, in favor of the Acquisition merger, which may be expressed to be in the absence of a Superior Proposal.

(iii) “Superior Proposal” means a bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach by the Company of Section 6.3 (other than a breach that is immaterial and unintentional) and was made by a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company, substituting in the definition thereof, “in excess of fifty percent (50%)” for each of “in excess of twenty percent (20%)” and “at least eighty percent (80%)”, and that the Company Parent Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, taking into account such factors as the Company Parent Board considers in good faith to be appropriate, (x) reasonably capable of being valued and consummated in accordance with its terms, taking into account all aspects of the Company Acquisition Proposal (including, among other things, the identity of the Third Party making such Company Acquisition Proposal, termination fees, expense reimbursement provisions, financing, market conditions, form of consideration, all financial, regulatory, legal and other aspects of such proposal and the conditionality, timing and certainty of consummation of such proposal), and (y) if completed substantially in accordance with its terms would likely be more favorable to the stockholders of the Company Parent (in their capacity as such) taking into account all aspects (including those items set forth above) of the Company Acquisition Proposal and any modification to such Superior Proposal and the Proposed Changed Terms proposed by SPAC in response to such Company Acquisition Proposal or otherwise and any consequence of such modification.

Any action taken by a Representative of the Company or Company Parent, acting on behalf of, at the direction of, or in concert with the Company or the Company Parent that would be a breach by the Company or the Company Parent of this Section 6.3 will be deemed to constitute a breach by the Company or Company Parent of this Section 6.3.

Section 6.4. D&O Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) From and after the Acquisition Closing, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company and PubCo will jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, SPAC and any Acquisition Entity (in each case, solely to the extent acting in his or her capacity as such and to the extent such activities are related to the business of the Company, its Subsidiaries, SPAC or such Acquisition Entity, respectively) (the “D&O Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any Action, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Acquisition Closing, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Acquisition Closing, to the fullest extent that the Company, its Subsidiaries, SPAC or such Acquisition Entity, respectively, would have been permitted under applicable Law and its respective Organizational Documents in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify such D&O Indemnified Parties (including the advancing of expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law). Without limiting the foregoing, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company and PubCo will, and will cause their Subsidiaries to, (i) maintain for a period of not less than six years from the Acquisition Closing provisions in its Organizational Documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries’ or SPAC’s and each Acquisition Entity’s, respectively, former and current officers, directors, employees, and agents that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of the Organizational Documents of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, SPAC or such Acquisition Entity, respectively, in each case, as of the date of this Agreement and (ii) not amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by Law.

72

(b) For a period of six years from the Acquisition Closing, each of PubCo, the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Company will (and the Surviving Corporation will cause its Subsidiaries to) maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (each a “D&O Insurance”) covering those Persons who are currently covered by the Company’s, any of its Subsidiaries’, SPAC’s or any Acquisition Entity’s, respectively, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (including, in any event, the D&O Indemnified Parties) on terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage, except that in no event will PubCo, the Surviving Corporation, its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Company be required to pay an annual premium for such insurance in excess of 300% of the aggregate annual premium payable by the Company, its Subsidiaries, SPAC or such Acquisition Entity, respectively, for such insurance policy for the year ended December 31, 2024, as the case may be; provided, however, that (i) each of PubCo, the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Company may cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six-year “tail” policy (each a “D&O Tail”) with respect to claims existing or occurring at or prior to the Acquisition Closing and if and to the extent such policies have been obtained prior to the Acquisition Closing with respect to any such Persons, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company and PubCo, respectively, will maintain such policies in effect and continue to honor the obligations thereunder, and (ii) if any claim is asserted or made within such six-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 6.4 will be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof. The costs of any D&O Insurance for the period after the Acquisition Closing Date, and the cost of any D&O Tail to the extent in effect following the Acquisition Closing Date, will be borne by PubCo and will not be a SPAC Transaction Expense.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 6.4 will survive the Acquisition Closing indefinitely and will be binding, jointly and severally, on the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company and PubCo and all of their respective successors and assigns. In the event that the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company, PubCo or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and will not be the continuing or surviving company or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company or PubCo, respectively, will ensure (and each of PubCo, the Surviving Company and the Surviving Corporation will cause its Subsidiaries to ensure) that proper provision will be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company or PubCo as the case may be, will succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 6.4.

73

(d) The provisions of Section 6.4(a) through (c): (i) are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each Person who is now, or who has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement or who becomes prior to the Acquisition Closing, a D&O Indemnified Party, his or her heirs and his or her personal representatives, (ii) will be binding on the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company and PubCo and their respective successors and assigns, (iii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have, whether pursuant to Law, Contract, Organizational Documents, or otherwise and (iv) will survive the consummation of the Acquisition Closing and will not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any D&O Indemnified Party without the consent of such D&O Indemnified Party.

Section 6.5. Notice of Developments. During the Interim Period, the Company will promptly (and in any event prior to the Acquisition Closing) notify SPAC in writing, and SPAC will promptly (and in any event prior to the Acquisition Closing) notify the Company in writing, upon any of the Group Companies or SPAC, as applicable, becoming aware (awareness being determined with reference to the Knowledge of the Company or the Knowledge of SPAC, as the case may be): (a) of the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event the occurrence or non-occurrence of which has caused or is reasonably likely to cause any condition to the obligations of any party to effect the Transactions not to be satisfied or (b) of any notice or other communication from any Governmental Authority which is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the Transactions or to materially delay the timing thereof. The delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.5 will not cure any breach of any representation or warranty requiring disclosure of such matter or any breach of any covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or otherwise limit or affect the rights of, or the remedies available to, SPAC or the Company, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any failure to give such notice pursuant to this Section 6.5 will not give rise to any liability of the Company or SPAC or be taken into account in determining whether the conditions in Article IX have been satisfied or give rise to any right of termination set forth in Article X.

Section 6.6. Financial Statements.

(a) The Company will deliver to SPAC, (i) as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, and in any event no later than June 30, 2026, the audited consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, the related audited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and cash flows of the Company for the years then ended (the financial statements described in this clause (i), the “Audited Financial Statements”), and (ii) as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of the applicable period, any other audited or unaudited consolidated balance sheets and the related audited or unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, and stockholders’ deficit and cash flows of the Group Companies as of and for a year-to-date period ended as of the end of any other different fiscal quarter (and as of and for the same period from the previous fiscal year) or fiscal year (and as of and for the prior fiscal quarter), as applicable that as of such date is required to be included in the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement (the financial statements described in this clause (ii) collectively with the Audited Financial Statements, the “Company Post-Signing Financial Statements”).

Each of SPAC, the Acquisition Entities and the Company will report the Transactions consistently with the Intended Tax Treatment and the immediately preceding sentence unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code or a change in applicable Law. The parties will cooperate with each other and their respective tax counsel to document and support the Tax treatment of each of the Mergers as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code (or, in the case of the acquisition Merger, as a contribution under Section 351(a) of the Code).

84

(b) If, in connection with the preparation and filing of the Proxy Statement/Registration Statement, the SEC requests or requires that Tax opinions be prepared and submitted in such connection, SPAC and the Company will deliver to Kirkland & Ellis LLP and Perkins Coie LLP customary Tax representation letters satisfactory to its counsel, dated and executed as of the date the Proxy Statement/Registration Statement will have been declared effective by the SEC and such other date(s) as determined reasonably necessary by such counsel in connection with the preparation and filing of the Proxy Statement/Registration Statement, and, if required, Kirkland & Ellis LLP will furnish an opinion, subject to customary assumptions and limitations, with respect to the Intended Income Tax Treatment as it applies to the Initial Merger and, if required, Perkins Coie LLP will furnish an opinion, subject to customary assumptions and limitations, with respect to the Intended Income Tax Treatment as it applies to the Acquisition Merger.

Other than with respect to any Stockholder Litigation where the parties identified in this sentence are adverse to each other or in the context of any Stockholder Litigation related to or arising out of a SPAC Acquisition Proposal, (a) prior to the Initial Closing, PubCo will give the Company and SPAC a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any such Stockholder Litigation (and consider in good faith the suggestions of SPAC in connection therewith) brought against PubCo, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors or officers and no such settlement will be agreed to without the Company’s and SPAC’s prior consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (b) SPAC will give the Company a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any such Stockholder Litigation (and consider in good faith the suggestions of the Company in connection therewith) brought against SPAC, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its directors or officers, and no such settlement will be agreed to without the Company’s prior consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

85

Section 8.6. Private Placement.

(a) During the period between the date of this Agreement and the Initial Closing, SPAC and the Company will use reasonable best efforts to obtain additional financing from investors (“PIPE Investors”) to make an investment in PubCo (or SPAC or the Company to be converted into PubCo at Closing) to purchase equity in the aggregate amount (inclusive of the $4.0 million of Sponsor financing, which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes the $1.5 million funded under convertible preferred equity issued by the Company to Sponsor) of $25.0 million (the “PIPE Investment Amount”) by entering into customary subscription agreements in the form and substance and on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Company and SPAC (the “PIPE Financing Agreements”), pursuant to which the PIPE Investors commit to make investments in PubCo (or SPAC or the Company (which will require reasonable consent of SPAC or the Company, as applicable) to be converted into PubCo at Closing) by way of subscribing for equity securities, debt securities or other equity-linked or convertible securities of the Company (the “PIPE Investments” or the “Private Placement”). In the event that one or more PIPE Financing Agreements is entered into by SPAC, PubCo or the Company (the “Financing Entity”) in connection with the Private Placement, (i) the Financing Entity may not modify or waive, or provide consent to modify or waive (including consent to termination, to the extent required), any provisions of any such PIPE Financing Agreement or any remedy thereunder, in each case, without the prior written consent of SPAC, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and the Company, as applicable, other than immaterial or ministerial modifications or waivers, (ii) the Financing Entity will use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and take reasonable best efforts to do, or cause to be done, all the things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by such PIPE Financing Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions described therein, including satisfying on a timely basis all conditions and covenants applicable to the Financing Entity and otherwise complying with its obligations thereunder, (iii) if all conditions in any such PIPE Financing Agreement (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but which conditions are then capable of being satisfied) have been satisfied, the Financing Entity will consummate the transactions contemplated by each such PIPE Financing Agreement at the time contemplated in the PIPE Financing Agreement, (iv) the Financing Entity will deliver notices to counterparties to each such PIPE Financing Agreement as required by and in the manner set forth therein in order to cause timely funding in advance of the Acquisition Closing, (v) the Financing Entity will enforce its rights under each such PIPE Financing Agreement to cause the applicable PIPE Investors to fund the amounts set forth therein and (vi) the Financing Entity will provide prompt written notice to the Company if any counterparty to any PIPE Financing Agreement notifies the Financing Entity of any breach of any representation or other agreement contained in any such Financing Agreement by such counterparty.

86

(b) Prior to the Initial Closing, the Company will, and will cause the Company Parent to, use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide to SPAC, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide, and will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to provide, all cooperation reasonably requested by SPAC that is customary in connection with completing the Private Placement (provided, that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), which commercially reasonable efforts will include, among other things, the Company’s (i) furnishing, reasonably promptly following receipt of a request therefore, information regarding the Company (including information to be used in the preparation of one or more information packages regarding the business, operations, financial projections and prospects of the Company) customary for such financing activities, to the extent reasonably available and subject to disclosure limitation for a public company, (ii) causing the Company Parent’s and the Company’s senior management and other representatives with appropriate seniority and expertise to participate in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, due diligence sessions and drafting sessions, (iii) taking all corporate actions, subject to the occurrence of the Initial Closing, reasonably requested by SPAC or any financing sources to permit the consummation of such financing activities, and (iv) cooperating with requests for due diligence to the extent customary and reasonable.

Section 8.7. U.S. Securities Exchange Listing Efforts.

(a) The Company and SPAC will use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause PubCo to satisfy the applicable U.S. Securities Exchange listing requirements by the Acquisition Closing, such as the shareholder distribution requirements relating to Round Lots and Round Lot Holders (each as defined in the applicable U.S. Securities Exchange Listing Rules), including through engaging a third party advisor. To the extent SPAC and the Company mutually determine to engage a Listing Advisor for this purpose, promptly following the date of this Agreement, the Company and SPAC will jointly engage a third party advisor (the “Listing Advisor”) with experience in identifying transaction counterparties for transactions that would result in PubCo satisfying applicable U.S. Securities Exchange listing rules, including the shareholder distribution requirements relating to Round Lots and Round Lot Holders (each as defined in the U.S. Securities Exchange Listing Rules).

(b) The Listing Advisor will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify and present to SPAC and PubCo one or more potential transaction counterparties that are willing to participate in a merger or similar transaction (a “Listing Transaction”) that, when taken together with PubCo’s existing and anticipated shareholder base, would result in PubCo satisfying applicable U.S. Securities Exchange listing rules, including the shareholder distribution requirements relating to Round Lots and Round Lot Holders (each as defined in the applicable U.S. Securities Exchange Listing Rules). SPAC, PubCo, and the Company will consult with each other in good faith regarding the selection of any such counterparty, and no such counterparty will be selected without the prior written consent of SPAC and the Company.

87

(c) Following the identification and selection of a Listing Transaction counterparty, SPAC and the Company will use commercially reasonable best efforts to negotiate, finalize, and execute a definitive agreement with such counterparty (the “Listing Transaction Agreement”), on terms reasonably satisfactory to SPAC and the Company, providing for the consummation of the Listing Transaction on terms substantially consistent with the purpose of this Section 8.7 and otherwise in compliance with applicable Law. The structure and terms of the Listing Transaction will be mutually agreed upon in good faith by SPAC and the Company.

(d) Each of SPAC, PubCo, the Company and the Acquisition Entities will use commercially reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other, the Listing Advisor, and any counterparty in connection with the Listing Transaction, including by providing such information and taking such actions as may be reasonably necessary to (i) obtain any required approvals, consents, or orders of any applicable Government Authority, (ii) prepare and file any notices, motions, or other documents required to be filed therewith, (iii) prepare any disclosure regarding the Listing Transaction for inclusion in the Proxy/Registration Statement, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary to consummate the Listing Transaction in accordance with the Listing Transaction Agreement and applicable Law.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the Listing Transaction contemplated by this Section 8.7 is not reasonably likely to be consummated on a timely basis or on terms reasonably satisfactory to SPAC and the Company, or (ii) SPAC and the Company mutually agree in writing that an alternative method or structure would be more effective or advisable in enabling PubCo to satisfy the applicable U.S. Securities Exchange listing rules described herein, then SPAC, PubCo, and the Company will use commercially reasonable best efforts to pursue such alternative methods or structures in lieu of, or in addition to, the Listing Transaction, on terms mutually agreed upon by SPAC and the Company (an “Alternative Listing Transaction”).

Section 8.8. U.S. Securities Exchange Listing. From the date of this Agreement through the closing of the Initial Merger, PubCo will promptly apply for, and along with SPAC and the Company, will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause, the PubCo Common Shares and public PubCo Converted Warrants to be issued in connection with the Transactions to be approved for listing on NASDAQ or other U.S. Securities Exchange and accepted for clearance by the Depository Trust Company, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Initial Closing Date. Subject to Section 11.6, the Company, on the one hand, and SPAC, on the other, will each be responsible for and pay one-half of the filing fees payable to NASDAQ in connection with the Transactions, including such filing fees payable by an Acquisition Entity.

Section 8.9. Services Agreement. Prior to the Initial Closing Date, Company Parent, the Company and SPAC will use reasonable best efforts to negotiate in good faith a customary and commercially reasonable services agreement, including pricing, with respect to the provision of services and assets from the Company Parent to the Company that are reasonably necessary to operate the Company business and operations and at substantially the same level of quality, timeliness, and priority as such services and assets, unless otherwise reasonably agreed to by SPAC, were provided to the Company during the twelve (12)-month period prior to the Initial Closing Date (the “Services”), which Services will include the third party vendor and other services being provided via agreement or arrangement with the Company Parent.

Article XI

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.1. Trust Account Waiver. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company and each Acquisition Entity acknowledges that it has read the publicly filed final prospectus of SPAC, filed with the SEC on January 26, 2021 (File No. 333-39945), including the Trust Agreement, and understands that SPAC has established the trust account described therein (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of SPAC’s public shareholders and that disbursements from the Trust Account are available only in the limited circumstances set forth therein. The Company and each Acquisition Entity further acknowledges and agrees that SPAC’s sole assets consist of the cash proceeds of SPAC’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) and private placements of its securities occurring simultaneously with the IPO, and that substantially all of these proceeds have been deposited in the Trust Account for the benefit of its public shareholders. Accordingly, the Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) and each Acquisition Entity hereby waives any past, present or future claim of any kind arising out of this Agreement against, and any right to access, the Trust Account, any trustee of the Trust Account or SPAC, to collect from the Trust Account any monies that may be owed to them by SPAC or any of its Affiliates for any reason whatsoever, and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account at any time for any reason whatsoever, including for any knowing and intentional breach by any of the parties to this Agreement of any of its representations or warranties as set forth in this Agreement, or such party’s material breach of any of its covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement, which material breach constitutes, or is a consequence of, a purposeful act or failure to act by such party with the knowledge that the taking of such act or failure to take such act would cause a material breach of this Agreement.

97

Section 11.11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Disclosure Letters) and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties to this Agreement relating to the Transactions and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Subsidiaries relating to the Transactions (including the Summary of Certain Proposed Terms and Conditions between SPAC and the Company, dated as of November 3, 2025).

Section 11.13. Publicity.

(a) All press releases or other public communications relating to the Transactions, and the method of the release for publication thereof, will prior to the Acquisition Closing, be subject to the prior mutual approval of SPAC and the Company; provided, that no such party will be required to obtain consent pursuant to this Section 11.13(a) to the extent any proposed release or statement is substantially equivalent to the information that has previously been made public without breach of the obligation under this Section 11.13(a).

(b) The restriction in Section 11.13(a) will not apply to the extent the public announcement is required by applicable securities Law, any Governmental Authority or stock exchange rule; provided, however, that in such an event, the party making the announcement will, to the extent practicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other party in advance as to its form, content and timing.

Section 11.14. Confidentiality. The existence and terms of this Agreement are confidential and may not be disclosed by either party hereto, their respective Affiliates or any Representatives of any of the foregoing, and will at all times be considered confidential and treated with the same degree of care that such party uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information of similar nature and importance (but in no event less than reasonable care) to protect the confidentiality of such information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence, each party will be permitted to disclose Confidential Information, including the Transaction Documents, the fact that the Transaction Documents have been signed and the status and terms of the Transactions to its existing or potential Affiliates, joint ventures, joint venture partners, shareholders, lenders, underwriters, financing sources and any Governmental Authority (including the applicable U.S. Securities Exchange ), and to the extent required, in regulatory filings, and their respective Representatives; provided that such parties entered into customary confidentiality agreements or are otherwise bound by fiduciary or other duties to keep such information confidential.

98

Section 11.15. Severability.

The parties hereto further agree that if any provision contained in this Agreement is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they will take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, will amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained in this Agreement that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties hereto.

Section 11.16. Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specific enforcement of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity. In the event that any Action will be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no party will allege, and each party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at law, and each party agrees to waiver any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection therewith.

Section 11.17. Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the Transactions may only be brought against, the Persons that are expressly named as parties hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party.

During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of (i) the Initial Closing and (ii) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Section 10.1 thereof, Sponsor, in its capacity as a shareholder of SPAC, hereby irrevocably agrees, at any meeting of the shareholders of SPAC duly called and convened in accordance with the Organizational Documents of SPAC, whether or not adjourned and however called, including at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting or otherwise, and in any action by written consent of the SPAC Shareholders, (i) to vote, or cause to be voted, or execute and return, or cause to be executed and returned, an action by written consent with respect to, as applicable, all of Sponsor’s SPAC Shares held of record or beneficially by Sponsor as of the date of this Agreement, or to which Sponsor acquires record or beneficial ownership after the date hereof and prior to the Initial Closing (collectively, the “Subject SPAC Equity Securities”) in favor of each of the Transaction Proposals, in each case, to the extent the Subject SPAC Equity Securities are entitled to vote thereon or consent thereto, (ii) when such meeting is held, appear at such meeting or otherwise cause the Subject SPAC Equity Securities to be counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum, (iii) to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, waive any dissenters, appraisal or other similar rights, whether such rights are afforded by Law or contract, in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and the Transaction Documents, including the Initial Merger, and (iv) to vote against, or cause to be voted against, or withhold consent, or cause consent to be withheld, with respect to, as applicable, (A) any SPAC Acquisition Proposal or (B) any transactions that would materially impede the consummation of the Transactions.

  2. Waiver of Anti-Dilution Protection. Sponsor hereby (a) waives, subject to, and conditioned upon, the occurrence of the Initial Closing (for itself and for its successors, heirs and assigns), and (b) agrees not to assert or perfect, any rights to adjustment or other anti-dilution protections with respect to the rate that the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares held by it convert into SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, including those set out in Article 17 of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of SPAC (the “SPAC Articles”), in connection with the Transactions or otherwise. SPAC hereby acknowledges and agrees to such waiver. For the avoidance of doubt in connection with the Transactions, the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares shall convert into SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-to-one basis.

  3. Sponsor Share Adjustment. Sponsor hereby agrees that immediately prior and subject to the Initial Closing Sponsor will irrevocably surrender to SPAC, all of the Sponsor Equity Securities other than the Retained Sponsor Equity Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, Sponsor will retain all of its SPAC Warrants and will not forfeit any SPAC Warrants.

(a) “Sponsor Equity Securities” means all of the SPAC Shares owned beneficially or of record by Sponsor as of the date of this Agreement.

(b) “Retained Sponsor Equity Securities” means (i) 7,633,750 SPAC Shares, minus (ii) 1,908,438 SPAC Shares, minus (iii) 500,000 SPAC Shares for every full increment of $2,500,000 by which the aggregate PIPE Investment Amount is below $25,000,000; provided that the Retained Sponsor Equity Securities will equal at least 4,500,000 SPAC Shares (even if the foregoing formula generates a number less than 4,500,000 SPAC Shares). For the purposes of the calculation of the PIPE Investment Amount, (x) the PIPE Investment Amount will include the PIPE Investments funded prior to or in connection with the Acquisition Closing and any amounts funded by Sponsor or its Affiliates pursuant to the PIPE Investment (and not Sponsor Loans), plus (y) if Sponsor or its applicable Affiliate does not breach its obligation to fund at least $4,000,000 of the PIPE Investment prior to or in connection with the Acquisition Closing (pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated on or about the date of this Agreement, among the Company Parent, the Company, PubCo and Sponsor’s Affiliate), the PIPE Investment Amount shall be deemed to include amounts that were offered by Third Party investors pursuant to bona fide term sheets and/or bona fide written offers from such Third Party investors and which had the same terms and conditions as the PIPE Investments by the PIPE Investors, but which the Company did not accept. For the avoidance of doubt, the calculation of Retained Sponsor Equity Securities shall be made one time in connection with the Initial Closing, and the Sponsor shall not be subject to any further forfeiture obligations thereafter.

  1. Sponsor Loans and SPAC Transaction and Other Expenses.

(a) If the amount of SPAC Transaction Expenses plus the amount outstanding under any Continuing Sponsor Transaction Loans to the extent used to finance amounts which would otherwise constitute SPAC Transaction Expenses had they not been paid exceed $6,000,000 in the aggregate, Sponsor will forfeit, in addition to the surrender or forfeiture of any Sponsor Equity Securities pursuant to Section 3, immediately prior to the Initial Closing an amount of Subject SPAC Equity Securities equal to (x) the excess over $6,000,000 divided by (y) $10.00.

(b) At the Acquisition Closing, Sponsor will exchange all Existing Sponsor Loans and Continuing Sponsor Non-Transaction Loans for PubCo Loan Warrants. The number of PubCo Loan Warrants to be issued pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall be equal to the principal amount outstanding under the applicable Sponsor Loans divided by $1.50.

(c) Prior to or at the Initial Closing, Sponsor will pay all SPAC Non-Transactional Expenses to the extent accrued prior to Closing (following SPAC’s compliance with Section 7.7 of the Business Combination Agreement), which payments will be reflected as Continuing Sponsor Non-Transaction Loans that will be subject to Section 4(b) above. For the avoidance of doubt, this obligation shall terminate in full upon the occurrence of the Initial Closing assuming the Sponsor shall have so paid such SPAC Non-Transactional Expenses accrued as of the Initial Closing, and the Sponsor shall have no obligation hereunder thereafter.

2
  1. Transfer of Lock-up Shares. Except with the prior written consent of the Company before the Acquisition Closing, and PubCo following the Acquisition Closing (such consent to be given or withheld in its sole discretion), from and after the date hereof, until the earlier of (i) twelve (12) months after the Acquisition Closing and (ii) the date following the Acquisition Closing on which PubCo (or its successor) completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction with an unaffiliated third party that results in all of PubCo’s (or such successor’s) shareholders having the right to exchange their securities for cash, securities or other property (the “Lock-up Period”), Sponsor agrees not to (a) Transfer or permit any Transfer of the PubCo Common Shares issued to Sponsor upon conversion of Sponsor’s SPAC Shares in connection with the Initial Merger and pursuant to Section 2.2(f) of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Lock-up Shares”), (b) enter into (i) any option, warrant, purchase right, or other Contract that could (either alone or in connection with one or more events or developments (including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions precedent)) require Sponsor to Transfer the Lock-up Shares or (ii) any voting trust, proxy or other Contract with respect to the voting or transfer of the Lock-up Shares or (c) enter into any Contract to take, or cause to be taken, any of the actions set forth in clauses (a) or (b) or (d) exercise any redemption rights with respect to any SPAC Shares held by it. For purposes of this Agreement, “Transfer” means any direct or indirect sale, transfer, distribution, assignment, pledge, mortgage, exchange, hypothecation, hedge, grant of a security interest or encumbrance in or disposition of an interest (whether with or without consideration, whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law or otherwise). In the event of any change in the shares of SPAC or PubCo, as the case may be, by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization, share split (including a reverse share split) or subdivision or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any dividend or distribution, merger or other similar change in capitalization, the term “Lock-up Shares” shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares as well as all such dividends and distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of such shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for the avoidance of doubt, under no circumstances shall any PubCo Warrants (or any converted shares thereto) or any shares (including SPAC Shares or PubCo Common Shares) received by Sponsor in connection with any PIPE Investment be considered Lock-Up Shares.

  2. Other Agreements.

(a) Sponsor agrees that Sponsor will be bound by and subject to Section 11.1 (Trust Account Waiver) of the Business Combination Agreement to the same extent as such provisions apply to the Company, as if Sponsor is directly party thereto.

(b) Sponsor understands and acknowledges that (i) SPAC, PubCo and the Company are entering into the Business Combination Agreement in reliance on Sponsor entering into this Agreement and agreeing to be bound by, and perform, or otherwise comply with, as applicable, the agreements, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement and (ii) but for the Sponsor entering into this Agreement and agreeing to be bound by, and perform, or otherwise comply with the agreements, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement, the SPAC, PubCo and the Company would not have entered into the Business Combination Agreement.

  1. Representations and Warranties of Sponsor. Sponsor represents and warrants, as of the date hereof to SPAC and the Company, as follows:

(a) Sponsor is an organization duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization.

3

(b) Sponsor has the requisite entity power and authority to perform its covenants, agreements and obligations hereunder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations hereunder that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement), and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate (or other similar) action on the part of Sponsor. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Sponsor and constitutes a valid, legal and binding agreement of Sponsor (assuming that this Agreement is duly authorized, executed and delivered by the other Parties hereto), enforceable against Sponsor in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other Laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and subject to general principles of equity).

(c) No consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required on the part of Sponsor with respect to Sponsor’s execution, delivery or performance of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations under this Agreement that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement) or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for any consents, approvals, authorizations, designations, declarations, waivers or filings, the absence of which would not prevent or materially impair the ability of Sponsor to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder in any material respect.

(d) None of the execution or delivery of this Agreement by Sponsor, the performance by Sponsor of any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations under this Agreement that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement) or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will, directly or indirectly (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) (i) result in any breach of any provision of Sponsor’s governing documents, (ii) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute a default or give rise to any right of termination, consent, cancellation, amendment, modification, suspension, revocation or acceleration under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Contract to which Sponsor is a party, (iii) violate, or constitute a breach under, any Governmental Order or applicable Law to which Sponsor or any of its properties or assets are bound or (iv) result in the creation of any Encumbrance upon the Subject SPAC Equity Securities, except, in the case of any of clauses (ii) through (iv) above, as would not prevent or materially impair the ability of Sponsor to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder in any material respect.

(e) Sponsor is the record and/or beneficial owner, as applicable, of the Subject SPAC Equity Securities and has valid, good and marketable title to the Subject SPAC Equity Securities, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Transfer restrictions under applicable securities Laws, under the Organizational Documents of SPAC or under that certain Letter Agreement, dated January 26, 2021, by and among the Company and its initial shareholders, directors and officers (as further amended by and among, SPAC, its directors and officers, the Sponsor and other parties thereto, on January 30, 2023)) (the “Letter Agreement”). Except for (i) 7,633,750 SPAC Ordinary Shares, (ii) 5,466,667 Private Placement Warrants and (iii) additional warrants, upon the repayment of outstanding loans as described in the SPAC SEC Filings, Sponsor does not own, beneficially or of record, any Equity Securities of SPAC or have the right to acquire any Equity Securities of SPAC (other than warrants that may be issued pursuant to promissory notes issued by the SPAC to the Sponsor). Except as disclosed in writing to the Company prior to the date of this Agreement, no Affiliate of Sponsor or Sponsor Related Party owns, beneficially or of record, any Equity Securities of SPAC or has the right to acquire any Equity Securities of SPAC (other than warrants that may be issued pursuant to promissory notes issued by the SPAC to the Sponsor).

4

(f) There is no Action pending or, to Sponsor’s knowledge, threatened in writing against or involving Sponsor or any of its Affiliates that, if adversely decided or resolved, would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair the ability of Sponsor to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement in any material respect or consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.

  1. Termination. This Agreement and all of its provisions will terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier of the (i) termination of the Lock-up Period or (ii) termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms. Upon such termination of this Agreement, all obligations of the Parties under this Agreement will terminate, without any liability or other obligation on the part of any Party hereto to any Person in respect hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby, and no Party hereto will have any claim against another (and no Person will have any rights against such Party), whether under contract, tort or otherwise, with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that the termination of this Agreement will not relieve any Party hereto from liability arising in respect of any willful and material breach of, or actual fraud, in connection with, this Agreement prior to such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sections 8 to 17 of this Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement. The representations and warranties in Section 7 of this Agreement will not survive the Acquisition Closing and will terminate and expire upon the occurrence of the Acquisition Closing (and there will be no liability after the Acquisition Closing in respect thereof).

  4. Amendments and Waivers; Assignment. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed by each Party hereto.

AGREEMENT


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, each intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

  1. Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting and Consent and Related Matters.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the execution of this Agreement, the Company Parent will prepare the notice of meeting, explanatory memorandum and proxy form to be provided to the Company Parent shareholders in respect of the Transactions, including the Required Parent Shareholder Approval (such documents, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Circular”). The Company Parent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to and resolve all comments received from the ASX concerning the Circular, and (ii) cause (x) the Circular, when released to the ASX and Parent Company Shareholders, to comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the ASX (including all necessary disclosures and voting exclusions required), Australian Law and the Company Parent’s Organizational Documents and (y) the ASX to issue a notice of no objection to the Circular on terms acceptable to the Company.

(b) If, at any time prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, any event or circumstance relating to SPAC or its respective officers or directors, should be discovered by SPAC which should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Circular, SPAC will promptly inform the Company Parent. If, at any time prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, any event or circumstance relating to the Company, the Company Parent, PubCo or the Acquisition Entities or their respective officers or directors, should be discovered by the Company Parent which should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Circular, the Company Parent will promptly inform SPAC. Thereafter, SPAC and the Company Parent will promptly cooperate in the preparation and filing of an appropriate amendment or supplement to the Circular describing or correcting such information and the Company Parent, if required by the ASX or applicable Law, will promptly submit such amendment or supplement to the ASX and, to the extent required by Law and subject to receiving a notice of no objection from the ASX with respect to such amendment or supplement, disseminate such amendment or supplement to the Company Parent shareholders in accordance with the requirements of Australian Law and the Company Parent’s Organizational Documents.

(c) Promptly following the date that the Proxy/Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act and the Company Parent’s receipt of the notice of no objection from the ASX with respect to the Circular, the Company Parent will duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, in accordance with the Company Parent’s Organizational Documents and applicable Law (including all relevant requirements under the ASX Listing Rules), to be held as promptly as reasonably practicable and, unless otherwise agreed by SPAC in writing, in any event not more than thirty-five (35) days following the date that the Proxy/Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act for the purpose of (i) obtaining all requisite approvals and authorizations from the Company Parent’s shareholders in connection with the Transactions, including the Required Parent Shareholder Approval (and including the approval of any adjournment or postponement of such meeting for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies for the purposes of the obtaining the Required Parent Shareholder Approval) and (ii) related and customary procedural and administrative matters to consummate the Transactions. The Company Parent will use its commercially reasonable efforts in accordance with Australian Law (x) to solicit from its shareholders proxies required to obtain the Required Parent Shareholder Approval and will take all other action necessary or advisable to obtain such proxies and the Required Parent Shareholder Approval and (B) to obtain the vote or consent of its shareholders required by and in compliance with all applicable Law and ASX listing rules and the Company Parent’s Organizational Documents. The Company Parent (x) will consult in good faith with SPAC regarding the record date and the date of the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting prior to determining such dates and (y) will not adjourn or postpone the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting without the prior written consent of SPAC (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, that the Company Parent will adjourn or postpone the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting (1) to the extent necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Circular that the Company Parent reasonably determines (following consultation in good faith with SPAC, except with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal, so long as the Company is, and continues to be, in compliance with Section 6.3 of the Business Combination Agreement) is necessary to comply with applicable Laws and ASX listing rules, is provided to the Company Parent Shareholders in advance of a vote on the adoption of the applicable Transaction Proposals, (2) if, as of the time that the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting is originally scheduled, there are insufficient shareholders or shares represented at such meeting (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business at the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, (3) if, as of the time that the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting is originally scheduled, adjournment or postponement of the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting is necessary to enable the Company Parent to solicit additional proxies required to obtain the Required Parent Shareholder Approval, or (4) to comply with applicable Law and ASX listing rules; provided further, however, that without the prior written consent of SPAC (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Company Parent will not adjourn or postpone on more than two (2) occasions and will not adjourn or postpone the date of the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting more than an aggregate of thirty (30) consecutive days.

2

(d) The Circular will include the Company Board Recommendation, and neither the Parent Board nor any committee thereof will withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify, or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify, the Company Board Recommendation, in each case subject to its right to a Change of Company Recommendation pursuant to the terms and conditions of, and subject to compliance with, Section 6.3 of the Business Combination Agreement.

(e) SPAC will furnish all information concerning itself, its Affiliates, Subsidiaries, officers, directors, managers, stockholders and other equityholders, and any information regarding such other matters as may be reasonably necessary in connection with the Circular.

(f) The Company Parent will (i) provide SPAC and SPAC’s counsel an opportunity (and in any event, at least five (5) Business Days) to review the Circular in advance of the Company Parent’s delivery of the Circular to the ASX, as well as any comments (including oral comments) the Company Parent or its counsel may receive from ASX or its staff with respect to the Circular promptly and within one (1) Australian Business Day after receiving those comments and (ii) consider in good faith and acting reasonably any proposed comments by SPAC regarding the Circular or any response to any comments or notices. The Company Parent will also promptly provide to SPAC any correspondence received by ASX or any other regulatory body (including ASIC and the Takeovers Panel) relating to the Transaction or the Circular.

(g) As promptly as practical, and in any event within one (1) Business Day, following the receipt of the Required Parent Shareholder Approval, the Company Parent, in the Company Parent’s capacity as a stockholder of the Company, will duly execute and deliver to the Company, and provide to the SPAC and PubCo, the Company Written Consent.

(h) The Company Parent hereby unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and commits to the SPAC that it shall do all things necessary and exercise all rights as the sole shareholder of the Company and in its individual capacity, to cause the Company to perform and comply, with each of the Company’s obligations, covenants and undertakings pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement. The Company Parent agrees that it will use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate in connection with the PIPE Financing, including taking the actions applicable to the Company Parent provided in Section 8.6(b) of the Business Combination Agreement.

(i) The Company Parent hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the SPAC, the due and punctual and full and complete payment and discharge of the Company’s obligation to pay the Company Termination Amount, if, when, as and to the extent due and payable under Section 10.3(a) of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). This guarantee shall be a guarantee of payment and not merely of collection. The liability of Company Parent hereunder is irrevocable, absolute and unconditional. This guarantee of Company Parent shall be a continuing guarantee and shall remain in full force and effect until the Guaranteed Obligations are discharged and paid in full in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement. SPAC shall not be required to exhaust remedies against the Company prior to proceeding against this guaranty.

(j) The Company Parent will lodge a notice in accordance with section 671B of the Corporations Act in connection with the Parent Shareholder Voting Agreements entered into as of the date hereof in connection with the Business Combination Agreement (the “Parent Shareholder Voting Agreements”) and which lodgement will include the voting power acquired by the SPAC and its relevant associates in connection with the Parent Shareholder Voting Agreements and be the form agreed to by the SPAC prior to lodgement.

3

(k) The Company Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to PubCo all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, officers, directors, and managers as may be reasonably necessary in connection with the filing of the Proxy/Registration Statement.

  1. Parent Loans and Company Transaction Expenses.

(a) At the Acquisition Closing, the Company Parent will exchange all Existing Parent Intercompany Amounts for PubCo Loan Warrants with the number of PubCo Loan Warrants equal to (i) the principal amount outstanding under the applicable Existing Parent Intercompany Amounts divided by (ii) $1.50.

(b) If elected by the Company Parent by delivery of written notice to PubCo and SPAC no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Acquisition Closing, at the Acquisition Closing, the Company Parent will exchange all Continuing Parent Intercompany Amounts for PubCo Common Shares at a 15% discount to the IPO Price per Share.

(c) The Company Parent agrees that the Company Parent will be bound by and subject to (i) Section 11.1 (Trust Account Waiver) of the Business Combination Agreement to the same extent as such provisions apply to the Company and (ii) Section 6.3 (Acquisition Proposals and Alternative Transactions) and Section 8.9 (Services) of the Business Combination Agreement as it applies to the Company Parent, in each case, as if the Company Parent is directly party thereto.

(d) The Company Parent acknowledges and agrees that (i) SPAC and the Company are entering into the Business Combination Agreement in reliance on the Company Parent entering into this Agreement and agreeing to be bound by, and perform, or otherwise comply with, as applicable, the agreements, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement and (ii) but for the Company Parent entering into this Agreement and agreeing to be bound by, and perform, or otherwise comply with the agreements, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement, the SPAC would not have entered into the Business Combination Agreement.

  1. Company Parent Representations and Warranties. The Company Parent represents and warrants to SPAC as follows:

(a) The Company Parent is an Australian public company limited by shares and is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (or the equivalent thereof, if applicable, in each case, with respect to the jurisdictions that recognize the concept of good standing or any equivalent thereof) under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization.

(b) The Company Parent has the requisite entity power and authority to perform its covenants, agreements and obligations hereunder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations hereunder that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement), and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate (or other similar) action on the part of the Company Parent. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company Parent and constitutes a valid, legal and binding agreement of the Company Parent (assuming that this Agreement is duly authorized, executed and delivered by the other Parties hereto), enforceable against the Company Parent in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other Laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and subject to general principles of equity).

4

(c) No consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required on the part of the Company Parent with respect to the Company Parent’s execution, delivery or performance of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations under this Agreement that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement) or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except those filings in connection with the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting and except for any consents, approvals, authorizations, designations, declarations, waivers or filings, the absence of which would not prevent or materially impair the ability of the Company Parent to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder in any material respect.

(d) None of the execution or delivery of this Agreement by the Company Parent, the performance by the Company Parent of any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations under this Agreement that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement) or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will, directly or indirectly (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) (i) result in any breach of any provision of the Company Parent’s governing documents, (ii) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute a default or give rise to any right of termination, consent, cancellation, amendment, modification, suspension, revocation or acceleration under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Contract to which the Company Parent is a party, (iii) violate, or constitute a breach under, any Governmental Order or applicable Law to which the Company Parent or any of its properties or assets are bound or (iv) result in the creation of any Encumbrance upon the Owned Shares, except, in the case of any of clauses (ii) through (iv) above, as would not prevent or materially impair the ability of the Company Parent to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder in any material respect.

(e) The Company Parent is the record and beneficial owner of the Owned Shares and has valid, good and marketable title to the Owned Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than transfer restrictions under applicable securities Laws and under the Organizational Documents of the Company). Except for the Owned Shares, the Company Parent does not own, beneficially or of record, any Equity Securities of the Company or have the right to acquire any Equity Securities of the Company. No Affiliate of the Company Parent or Company Parent Related Party owns, beneficially or of record, any Equity Securities of the Company or has the right to acquire any Equity Securities of the Company. Except for the Owned Shares and any Equity Securities that may be issued in connection with the PIPE Financing, there are no other Equity Securities of the Company issued or outstanding. The Company Parent has the sole right to vote (and provide consent in respect of, as applicable) the Owned Shares and, except for this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or any proxy given for purposes of voting in favor of the Transaction Proposals, the Company Parent is not party to or bound by (i) any option, warrant, purchase right, or other contract that would (either alone or in connection with one or more events, developments or events (including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions precedent)) require the Company Parent to transfer any of the Owned Shares or (ii) any voting trust, proxy or other contract with respect to the voting or transfer of any of the Owned Shares in a manner inconsistent with the requirements of this Agreement.

(f) There is no Action pending or, to the Company Parent’s knowledge, threatened in writing against or involving the Company Parent or any of the Company Parent’s Affiliates that, if adversely decided or resolved, would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair the ability of the Company Parent to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement in any material respect or consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.

5

(g) The Company Parent understands and acknowledges that SPAC is entering into the Business Combination Agreement in reliance upon the Company Parent’s execution and delivery of this Agreement.

  1. Lock-up of Owned Shares. Except with the prior written consent of SPAC (such consent to be given or withheld in its sole discretion), from and after the date hereof, until the earlier of (i) twelve (12) months after the Acquisition Closing and (ii) the date following the Acquisition Closing on which PubCo (or its successor) completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction with an unaffiliated third party that results in all of PubCo’s (or such successor’s) shareholders having the right to exchange their securities for cash, securities or other property (the “Lock-up Period”), the Company Parent agrees not to (a) Transfer or permit any Transfer of the Owned Shares, (b) enter into (i) any option, warrant, purchase right, or other Contract that could (either alone or in connection with one or more events or developments (including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions precedent)) require the Company Parent to Transfer the Owned Shares or (ii) any voting trust, proxy or other Contract with respect to the voting or transfer of the Owned Shares, or (c) enter into any Contract to take, or cause to be taken, any of the actions set forth in clauses (a) or (b). For purposes of this Agreement, “Transfer” means any, direct or indirect, sale, transfer, distribution, assignment, pledge, mortgage, exchange, hypothecation, hedge, grant of a security interest or encumbrance in or disposition of an interest (whether with or without consideration, whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law or otherwise).

  2. Dividends, Distributions, Etc. In the event of any change in the shares of the Company or PubCo, as the case may be, by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization, share split (including a reverse share split) or subdivision or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any dividend or distribution, merger or other similar change in capitalization, the term “Owned Shares” shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares as well as all such dividends and distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of such shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such transaction.

  3. Termination. This Agreement and all of its provisions will terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier of the (i) termination of the Lock-up Period or (ii) termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms. Upon such termination of this Agreement, all obligations of the Parties under this Agreement will terminate, without any liability or other obligation on the part of any Party hereto to any Person in respect hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby, and no Party hereto will have any claim against another (and no Person will have any rights against such Party), whether under contract, tort or otherwise, with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that the termination of this Agreement will not relieve either Party from liability arising in respect of any willful and material breach of, or actual fraud, in connection with, of this Agreement prior to such termination or relieve the obligations of the Company Parent under Section 1(i) and Section 6 to 15 of this Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement. The representations and warranties in Section 3 of this Agreement will not survive the Acquisition Closing and will terminate and expire upon the occurrence of the Acquisition Closing (and there will be no liability after the Acquisition Closing in respect thereof).

  4. Fiduciary Duties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (a) the Company Parent makes no agreement or understanding herein in any capacity other than in the Company Parent’s capacity as a record holder and beneficial owner of the Owned Shares, and not in any other capacity and (b) nothing herein will be construed to limit or affect any action or inaction by any director of the Company Parent serving as a member of the board of directors of any Group Company or as a fiduciary of any Group Company, in each case, acting in such person’s capacity as a director or fiduciary of such Group Company.

    6

  5. No Recourse.  Except for claims pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement or any other Transaction Document by any party(ies) thereto against any other party(ies) thereto on the terms and subject to the conditions therein and except for claims based on or for fraud, each Party agrees that (a) this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any action for breach of this Agreement may only be made against, the Parties, and no claims of any nature whatsoever (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising under or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation hereof or its subject matter, or the transactions contemplated hereby will be asserted against the Company or any Company Affiliate (other than the Party hereto, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein) or any SPAC, SPAC Affiliate or Sponsor Affiliate, and (b) none of the Company, any Company Affiliate (other than the Party hereto, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein) nor SPAC, any SPAC Affiliate nor any Sponsor Affiliate will have any Liability arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation hereof or its subject matter, or the transactions contemplated hereby, including with respect to any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) for breach of this Agreement, except, in each case, as provided herein or in any Transaction Document to which such entity is a party.

  6. Amendments and Waivers; Assignment. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed by the Company Parent and SPAC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof nor will any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder will be assignable by any Party without SPAC’s prior written consent (in the case of the Company Parent) and the Company Parent’s written consent (in the case of SPAC) (in each case, to be withheld or given in its sole discretion). Any attempted assignment of this Agreement not in accordance with the terms of this Section 9 will be void.

  7. Notices. All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder will be in writing and will be given (and will be deemed to have been duly given) (i) by delivery in person, (ii) by e-mail (having obtained electronic delivery confirmation thereof (i.e., an electronic record of the sender that the email was sent to the intended recipient thereof without an “error” or receipt of a similar message that such email was not deliverable or not received by such intended recipient)), or (iii) by nationally recognized overnight delivery service to the other Parties as follows:

Execution Version

PARENT SHAREHOLDER VOTING AGREEMENT

This PARENT SHAREHOLDER VOTING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of April 9, 2026, by and between Jindalee Lithium Limited, an Australian public company limited by shares (the “Company Parent”) and the undersigned shareholder of the Company Parent executing this Agreement (the “Shareholder”). Each of the Company Parent and the Shareholder are sometimes referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein will have the meanings ascribed to them in the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below).

RECITALS


WHEREAS, Constellation Acquisition Corp I, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands (“SPAC”), HiTech Minerals Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company Parent (the “Company”) and certain other Persons party thereto entered into a Business Combination Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as it may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Business Combination Agreement”).


WHEREAS, Shareholder is the record and beneficial owner of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Company Parent (“Ordinary Shares”).


WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement to the willingness of SPAC and the Company to enter into the Business Combination Agreement, SPAC, the Company Parent and the Shareholder are entering into this Agreement.

AGREEMENT


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, each intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. Agreement to Vote. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of (i) the Acquisition Closing and (ii) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Section 10.1 thereof, Shareholder, in its capacity as a shareholder of Company Parent and on behalf of itself, hereby irrevocably agrees, at any meeting of the shareholders of Company Parent duly called and convened in accordance with the Organizational Documents of Company Parent, whether or not adjourned and however called, including at the Company Parent Shareholders’ Meeting or otherwise, and in any action by written consent of the Company Parent shareholders, (i) to vote, or cause to be voted, or execute and return, or cause to be executed and returned, an action by written consent with respect to, as applicable, all of the Ordinary Shares held of record or beneficially by Shareholder as of the date of this Agreement, or to which Shareholder acquires record or beneficial ownership after the date hereof and prior to the Acquisition Closing, other than the Excluded Ordinary Shares (collectively, the “Owned Shares”) in favor of each of the Transaction Proposals, in each case, to the extent the Owned Shares are entitled to vote thereon or consent thereto, (ii) when such meeting is held, appear at such meeting or otherwise cause the Owned Shares to be counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum, in each case, with respect to clause (i) and (ii), and (iii) (y) to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, waive any dissenters, appraisal or other similar rights, whether such rights are afforded by Law or Contract, in respect of the Transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and the Transaction Documents, including the Acquisition Merger and (z) to the extent permitted by Law, not to commence or participate in, and take all actions necessary to opt out of, any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or otherwise, against the Company or its Affiliates relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or the consummation of the Transaction, including any claim challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or alleging a breach of fiduciary duty of the board of directors of Company Parent or the Company in connection with this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or the Transaction, and (iv) to vote against, to cause to be voted against or withhold consent, or cause consent to be withheld, with respect to, as applicable, any (x) Company Acquisition Proposal or (y) transactions that would materially impede the consummation of the Transactions.

The obligations in clause 1 do not apply to the Excluded Ordinary Shares. The “Excluded Ordinary Shares” are such number of Ordinary Shares held of record or beneficially by Shareholder that are acquired after the date of this Agreement, including as a result of the exercise of any options to acquire Ordinary Shares, which would, having regard to all Parent Shareholder Voting Agreements entered into between a shareholder and Parent Company, give the Parent Company or SPAC “voting power” (as defined in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (“Corporations Act”) in more than 19.99% in Parent Company or otherwise contravene section 606 of the Corporations Act.

2. Other Agreements.

(a) The Shareholder agrees that the Shareholder will be bound by and subject to Section 11.1 (Trust Account Waiver) of the Business Combination Agreement to the same extent as such provisions apply to the Company, as if the Shareholder is directly party thereto.

(b) The Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that (i) SPAC and the Company are entering into the Business Combination Agreement in reliance on the Shareholder entering into this Agreement and agreeing to be bound by, and perform, or otherwise comply with, as applicable, the agreements, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement and (ii) but for the Shareholder entering into this Agreement and agreeing to be bound by, and perform, or otherwise comply with the agreements, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement, the SPAC would not have entered into the Business Combination Agreement.

3. Shareholder Representations and Warranties. The Shareholder represents and warrants to Company Parent as follows:

(a) If the Shareholder is an entity, the Shareholder is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (or the equivalent thereof, if applicable, in each case, with respect to the jurisdictions that recognize the concept of good standing or any equivalent thereof) under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization.

(b) If the Shareholder is an entity, the Shareholder has the requisite entity power and authority to perform its covenants, agreements and obligations hereunder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations hereunder that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement), and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; and the execution and delivery of this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate (or other similar) action on the part of the Shareholder. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Shareholder and constitutes a valid, legal and binding agreement of the Shareholder (assuming that this Agreement is duly authorized, executed and delivered by the other Parties hereto), enforceable against the Shareholder in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other Laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and subject to general principles of equity).

(c) No consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required on the part of the Shareholder with respect to the Shareholder’s execution, delivery or performance of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except as required by the ASX Listing Rules and section 671B of the Corporations Act or for any consents, approvals, authorizations, designations, declarations, waivers or filings, the absence of which would not prevent or materially impair the ability of the Shareholder to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder in any material respect.

- 2 -

(d) None of the execution or delivery of this Agreement by the Shareholder, the performance by the Shareholder of any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations under this Agreement that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement) or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will, directly or indirectly (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) (i) if the Shareholder is an entity, result in any breach of any provision of the Shareholder’s governing documents, (ii) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute a default or give rise to any right of termination, consent, cancellation, amendment, modification, suspension, revocation or acceleration under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Contract to which the Shareholder is a party, (iii) violate, or constitute a breach under, any Governmental Order or applicable Law to which the Shareholder or any of its properties or assets are bound or (iv) result in the creation of any Encumbrance upon the Owned Shares, except, in the case of any of clauses (ii) through (iv) above, as would not prevent or materially impair the ability of the Shareholder to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder in any material respect.

(e) The Shareholder is the record and beneficial owner of the Owned Shares and has valid, good and marketable title to the Owned Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than transfer restrictions under applicable securities Laws and the Organizational Documents of Company Parent). Except for the Owned Shares set forth on Schedule I hereto, the Shareholder does not own, beneficially or of record, any Equity Securities of the Company Parent or have the right to acquire any Equity Securities of the Company Parent. The Shareholder has the sole right to vote (and provide consent in respect of, as applicable) the Owned Shares and, except for this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or any proxy given for purposes of voting in favor of the Transaction Proposals, the Shareholder is not party to or bound by (i) any option, warrant, purchase right, or other contract that would (either alone or in connection with one or more developments or events (including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions precedent)) require the Shareholder to transfer any of the Owned Shares or (ii) any voting trust, proxy or other contract with respect to the voting or transfer of any of the Owned Shares in a manner inconsistent with the requirements of this Agreement.

(f) There is no Action pending or, to the Shareholder’s knowledge, threatened in writing against or involving the Shareholder or any of the Shareholder’s Affiliates that, if adversely decided or resolved, would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair the ability of the Shareholder to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.

4. Transfer of Owned Shares. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of (i) the Acquisition Closing and (ii) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Section 10.1 thereof, the Shareholder agrees not to (a) Transfer any of the Owned Shares, (b) enter into (i) any option, warrant, purchase right, or other Contract that could (either alone or in connection with one or more events or developments (including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions precedent)) require the Shareholder to Transfer the Owned Shares or (ii) any voting trust, proxy or other Contract with respect to the voting or transfer of the Owned Shares, or (c) enter into any Contract to take, or cause to be taken, any of the actions set forth in clauses (a) or (b). For purposes of this Agreement, “Transfer” means any, direct or indirect, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, mortgage, exchange, hypothecation, grant of a security interest or encumbrance in or disposition of an interest (whether with or without consideration, whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law or otherwise).

5. Termination. This Agreement and all of its provisions will terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier of (a) the Acquisition Effective Time or (b) the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms. Upon such termination of this Agreement, all obligations of the Parties under this Agreement will terminate, without any liability or other obligation on the part of any Party hereto to any Person in respect hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby, and no Party hereto will have any claim against another (and no Person will have any rights against such Party), whether under contract, tort or otherwise, with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that the termination of this Agreement will not relieve either Party from liability in respect of any willful and material breach of, or actual fraud, in connection with, this Agreement prior to such termination. Section 5 to 14 of this Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement.

6. Fiduciary Duties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (a) the Shareholder makes no agreement or understanding herein in any capacity other than in such Shareholder’s capacity as a record holder and beneficial owner of the Owned Shares, and not in such Shareholder’s capacity as a director of any Group Company and (b) nothing herein will be construed to limit or affect any action or inaction by such Shareholder or any representative of such Shareholder serving as a member of the board of directors of any Group Company or as a fiduciary of any Group Company, in each case, acting in such person’s capacity as a director or fiduciary of such Group Company.

7. No Recourse. Except pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement or any other Transaction Document by any party(ies) thereto against any other party(ies) thereto on the terms and subject to the conditions therein and except for claims based on or for fraud, each Party agrees that (a) this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any action for breach of this Agreement may only be made against, the Parties, and no claims of any nature whatsoever (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising under or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation hereof or its subject matter, or the transactions contemplated hereby will be asserted against the Company or any Company Affiliate (other than the Party hereto, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein) or any SPAC, SPAC Affiliate or Sponsor Affiliate, and (b) none of the Company, any Company Affiliate (other than the Party hereto, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein) or any SPAC, SPAC Affiliate or Sponsor Affiliate will have any Liability arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation hereof or its subject matter, or the transactions contemplated hereby, including with respect to any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) for breach of this Agreement, except, in each case, as provided herein or in any other Transaction Document to which they are party.

8. Amendments and Waivers; Assignment. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed by the Shareholder, SPAC and the Company Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof nor will any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder will be assignable by any Party without SPAC’s and Company Parent’s prior written consent (in the case of the Shareholder) and the Shareholder’s written consent (in the case of SPAC or the Company Parent) (in each case, to be withheld or given in its sole discretion).

Each of the Class B Holder, SPAC and the Company are sometimes referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.” Capitalized terms used but not defined herein will have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below).

RECITALS


WHEREAS, SPAC, the Company and certain other Persons party thereto are entering into a Business Combination Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as it may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Business Combination Agreement”).


WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement to the willingness of SPAC and the Company to enter into the Business Combination Agreement, SPAC, the Company and the Class B Holder are entering into this Agreement.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, each intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

  1. Agreement to Vote. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of (i) the Initial Closing and (ii) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Section 10.1 thereof, the Class B Holder, in their individual capacity as a shareholder of SPAC, hereby irrevocably agrees, at any meeting of the shareholders of SPAC duly called and convened in accordance with the Organizational Documents of SPAC, whether or not adjourned and however called, including at the SPAC Shareholders’ Meeting or otherwise, and in any action by written consent of the SPAC Shareholders, (i) to vote, or cause to be voted, or execute and return, or cause to be executed and returned, an action by written consent with respect to, as applicable, all of their SPAC Shares held of record or beneficially by the Class B Holder as of the date of this Agreement, as set forth in Exhibit A, or to which the Class B Holder acquires record or beneficial ownership after the date hereof and prior to the Initial Closing (collectively, the “Subject SPAC Equity Securities”) in favor of each of the Transaction Proposals, in each case, to the extent the Subject SPAC Equity Securities are entitled to vote thereon or consent thereto, (ii) when such meeting is held, appear at such meeting or otherwise cause the Subject SPAC Equity Securities to be counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum, (iii) to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, waive any dissenters, appraisal or other similar rights, whether such rights are afforded by Law or contract, in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Transactions”) and the Transaction Documents, including the Initial Merger, and (iv) to vote against, or cause to be voted against, or withhold consent, or cause consent to be withheld, with respect to, as applicable, (A) any SPAC Acquisition Proposal or (B) transactions that would materially impede the consummation of the Transactions.

  2. Waiver of Anti-Dilution Protection. The Class B Holder hereby (a) waives, subject to, and conditioned upon, the occurrence of the Initial Closing (for itself and for its successors, heirs and assigns), and (b) agrees not to assert or perfect, any rights to adjustment or other anti-dilution protections with respect to the rate that the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares held by them convert into SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares, including those set out in Article 17 of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of SPAC, in connection with the Transactions or otherwise. SPAC hereby acknowledges and agrees to such waiver. For the avoidance of doubt in connection with the Transactions, the SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares shall convert into SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-to-one basis.

  3. Transfer of Lock-Up Shares.

(a) Except with the prior written consent of the Company before the Acquisition Closing, and PubCo following the Acquisition Closing (such consent to be given or withheld in its sole discretion), the Class B Holder agrees that it will not Transfer any SPAC Class B Ordinary Shares (or any PubCo Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof) until the earlier of (i) twelve (12) months after the Acquisition Closing and (ii) following the Acquisition Closing (x) if the closing price of the PubCo Common Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Acquisition Closing or (y) the date on which PubCo (or its successor) completes a liquidation, merger, amalgamation, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of PubCo’s (or such successor’s) shareholders having the right to exchange their PubCo Common Shares for cash, securities or other property (the “Lock-Up Period”). “Transfer” means the (a) sale of, offer to sell, contract or agreement to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant of any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agreement to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establishment or increase of a put equivalent position or liquidation with respect to or decrease of a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder with respect to, any security, (b) entry into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any security, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise, or (c) public announcement of any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (a) or (b).

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in paragraph 3(a), Transfers of the SPAC Class B Ordinary Share (or any PubCo Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof) that are held by the Class B Holder is permitted (a) to the SPAC’s officers or directors, any affiliate or family member of any of the SPAC’s officers or directors, any affiliate of the Sponsor or to any members of the Sponsor or any of their affiliates; (b) by gift to a member of the Class B Holder’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of such Class B Holder’s immediate family, an affiliate of such individual or to a charitable organization; (c) by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of such Class B Holder; (d)  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 Acquisition Closing at prices no greater than the price at which the securities were originally purchased; or (f) in the event of the SPAC’s liquidation prior to the completion of an initial business combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e), these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement with PubCo agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions herein.

(c) None of the execution or delivery of this Agreement by the Class B Holder, the performance by the Class B Holder of any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations under this Agreement that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement) or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will, directly or indirectly (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) (i) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute a default or give rise to any right of termination, consent, cancellation, amendment, modification, suspension, revocation or acceleration under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Contract to which the Class B Holder is a party, (ii) violate, or constitute a breach under, any Governmental Order or applicable Law to which the Class B Holder or any of their properties or assets are bound or (iii) result in the creation of any Encumbrance upon their Subject SPAC Equity Securities, except, in the case of any of clauses (i) through (iii) above, as would not prevent or materially impair the ability of the Class B Holder to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of their covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder in any material respect.

3

9

(b) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Purchaser, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the same by the other parties hereto, this Agreement shall constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors generally and by the availability of equitable remedies.

Section 5311 et seq.), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), the Purchaser maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. To the extent required, the Purchaser maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed for the screening of its investors against the OFAC sanctions programs, including the OFAC List.

Article 4

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1 Transfer Restrictions.

(a) The Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1, of a legend on any of the Securities in the following form:

NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS CONVERTIBLE HAS BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

Subject to the terms of the Certificate of Designations, the Company and PubCo each acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, the Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties; provided, however, that, as a prerequisite to such pledge, the Purchaser shall (x) provide notice to the Company or PubCo, as applicable, of such pledge or transfer at least five (5) Business Days prior thereto and (y) cause to be delivered to the Company or PubCo, as applicable, customary legal opinions of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party and pledgor as shall be reasonably requested by the Company or PubCo, as applicable, in connection therewith. Thereafter, at the Purchaser’s expense, the Company or PubCo, as applicable, will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities or the Transfer Agent may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities, including, if the Securities are subject to registration pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of selling securityholders thereunder.

12

(b) Certificates (or reasonable evidence of issuance by book entry, as applicable) evidencing the Underlying Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof): (i) following the Effective Date, (ii) following any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144 or an effective registration statement or (iii) as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Designation. In connection with the removal of the legend on any Underlying Shares pursuant to the preceding sentence, PubCo shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent or Purchaser promptly, and in the case of clause (ii), as reasonably necessary to allow for T+1 settlement of such sales. If all or any shares of Preferred Stock are converted or any portion of a Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Underlying Shares, or if such Underlying Shares may be sold under Rule 144 and PubCo is then in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable), or if the Underlying Shares may be sold under Rule 144 without the requirement for PubCo to be in compliance with the current public information required under required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) as to such Underlying Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) or as provided in the Certificate of Designation or Warrants, then such Underlying Shares shall be initially issued free of all legends, provided that PubCo and its counsel may request customary representations from any Holder in connection with such issuance of Underlying Shares without legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4.1. Certificates for Underlying Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by the Purchaser. PubCo shall cause the Transfer Agent to waive any medallion guarantee requirement to effect the de-legending or transfer of the Securities by the Purchaser.

(c) The Purchaser agrees with the Company and PubCo that the Purchaser will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates (or reasonable evidence of issuance by book entry, as applicable) representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company’s and PubCo’s reliance upon this understanding.

(d) The Underlying Securities held by Purchaser or its transferees, whether issued or to be issued, shall be considered “Registrable Securities,” or such other similar term, under the Registration Rights Agreement.

4.2 Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company and PubCo each acknowledge that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company and PubCo each further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, its obligation to issue the Underlying Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company or PubCo may have against the Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Company or PubCo.

13

4.3 Furnishing of Information; Public Information. Until the time that the Purchaser does not own any Securities, following the Business Combination Consummation, PubCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the registration of the Common Stock under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to timely file all reports required to be filed by PubCo pursuant to the Exchange Act.

4.4 Integration. Neither the Company nor PubCo shall sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any applicable stock exchange such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

4.5 Conversion and Exercise Procedures. Each of the form of Notice of Exercise included in the Warrants and the form of Notice of Conversion included in the Certificate of Designation set forth the totality of the procedures required of the Purchaser in order to exercise the Warrants or convert its Preferred Stock. Without limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original Notice of Exercise or Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise or Notice of Conversion form be required in order to exercise the Warrants or convert its Preferred Stock. No additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required of the Purchaser to exercise its Warrants or convert its Preferred Stock. PubCo shall honor exercises of the Purchaser’s Warrants and conversions of the Purchaser’s Preferred Stock and shall deliver Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.

4.6 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity.

14

(b) If, on any date following the Business Combination Consummation, the number of authorized but unissued (and otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than 100% of (i) the Required Minimum on such date, minus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents, then the board of directors of PubCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to amend the Company’s certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to at least the Required Minimum at such time (minus the number of shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents), as soon as possible and in any event not later than the 75^th^ day after such date, provided that the Company will not be required at any time to authorize a number of shares of Common Stock greater than the maximum remaining number of shares of Common Stock that could possibly be issued after such time pursuant to the Transaction Documents. If at any time after the Business Combination Consummation, the Purchaser is unable to convert Preferred Stock or exercise a Warrant solely as a result of PubCo not having sufficient authorized and unissued Common Stock, it shall constitute an Event of Default under the Certificate of Designation.

(c) PubCo shall, as applicable: (i) in connection with the initial listing of the Common Stock at the Business Combination Consummation, take all steps reasonably necessary to cause the Underlying Shares to be approved for listing or quotation on the applicable stock exchange and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing or quotation of the Common Stock. PubCo agrees to maintain the eligibility of the Common Stock for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the Depository Trust Company or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic transfer.

4.10 Blue Sky Filings. The Company and PubCo shall take such action as the Company and PubCo shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to the Purchaser at the Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States.

4.11 Parent Guarantee. The Parent hereby acknowledges and agrees to satisfy in full its obligation under the “Parent Guarantee” described in Section 8(c) of the Certificate of Designation, and that such obligation is unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction.

4.12 Tax Matters.

(a) The Company, Parent and PubCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Purchaser to structure any redemption or repurchase of Preferred Stock permitted under the Certificate of Designation to be treated as a payment in exchange for stock pursuant to Section 302 of the Code.

(b) For so long as Purchaser owns equity or securities convertible into equity in the Company, prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company shall not be liquidated, merged, or converted into a limited liability company, or otherwise enter into a transaction, in each case if the Company ceases to exist as an entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (and state and local Tax purposes, where applicable), without Purchaser’s prior written approval.

15

(c) The Company and PubCo will pay any and all transfer, documentary, sales, use, registration and other similar Taxes incurred in connection with this Agreement and the issuance and purchase of the Preferred Stock.

4.13 Business Combination Consummation. The following actions shall be taken at, and subject to, the Business Combination Consummation:

(a) The Preferred Stock issued by Company will automatically be cancelled, cease to exist and exchanged for Preferred Stock of PubCo on a one-to-one basis, pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, free and clear of all Liens, other than restrictions under the securities laws.

(b) If any securities are issued and sold pursuant to the “Private Placement” contemplated in the Business Combination Agreement, whether prior to or at the Business Combination Consummation, with any term more favorable to the purchaser thereof than the terms set forth in the Transaction Documents applicable to Purchaser (including, without limitation, valuation, conversion price or mechanics, mandatory or optional redemption, discount, warrant coverage, liquidation preference, collateral, restrictive covenants, anti-dilution protection, or other economic or governance right), then the parties hereto shall, at the option of the Purchaser, promptly amend any applicable Transaction Document to incorporate such more favorable term or terms.

(c) PubCo shall issue to the Purchaser a number of Warrants that is equal to the Accrued Value (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) divided by the Conversion Price (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), in each case, measured as of the date of the Business Combination Consummation, free and clear of all Liens, other than restrictions under the securities laws.

(d) Purchaser shall purchase $2,500,000 in newly issued equity or equity-linked securities of PubCo, on substantially the same terms as the other “PIPE Investors” in the “Private Placement”, as set forth in the “PIPE Financing Agreements,” as each term is contemplated in the Business Combination Agreement; subject to (i) satisfaction or waiver by the Company of the conditions to the Business Combination Consummation set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, provided, however, that Purchaser’s obligation under this clause shall be conditioned on the “Minimum Cash Condition” in the Business Combination Agreement being satisfied at the Business Combination Consummation, and not waived (unless Purchaser consents to such waiver); (ii) no applicable governmental authority having enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or having entered into any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the PIPE Financing Agreements illegal or otherwise enjoining, restraining or prohibiting consummation of (x) the sale, purchase and issuance of any securities pursuant to any PIPE Financing Agreements or (y) the Business Combination; (iii) customary representations and warranties of PubCo in the PIPE Financing Agreements being true and correct in all material respects at and as of the closing date under the PIPE Financing Agreements (other than (A) representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects and (B) for those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date); and (iv) PubCo having performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all obligations, covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement and the PIPE Financing Agreements to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the closing date under the PIPE Financing Agreements.

18

5.12 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

5.13 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever the Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company, PubCo or the Parent do not timely perform their related obligations within the periods therein provided, then the Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided, however, that, in the case of (x) a rescission of a conversion of the Purchaser’s Preferred Stock, the Purchaser shall be required to return any Conversion Shares subject to any such rescinded conversion or (y) a recission of an exercise of a Warrant, the Purchaser shall be required to return any Warrant Shares subject to any exercise notice concurrently with the return to the Purchaser of the aggregate exercise price paid to PubCo for such shares and the restoration of the Purchaser’s right to acquire such shares pursuant to the Purchaser’s Warrant (including, issuance of a replacement warrant certificate evidencing such restored right).

5.15 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the Purchaser, Parent, Company and PubCo will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any Action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

5.16 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that Parent, Company or PubCo makes a payment or payments to the Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or the Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to Parent, Company or PubCo, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), as applicable, then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

19

5.17 Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, Company or PubCo hereby agree not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any Action or Proceeding that may be brought by the Purchaser in order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of Parent, Company or PubCo under the Transaction Documents for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that Company or PubCo may be obligated to pay under the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents from the effective date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by Company or PubCo to the Purchaser with respect to Indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents, such excess shall be applied by the Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such Indebtedness or be refunded to Company or PubCo, as applicable, the manner of handling such excess to be at the Purchaser’s election.

5.18 Liquidated Damages. Any obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of Company or PubCo and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.

5.19 Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

5.20 Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement. In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires: (i) whenever required by the context, any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa; (ii) “including” (and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding or succeeding such term and shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation”; and (iii) the words “herein”, “hereto” and “hereby” and other words of similar import in this Agreement shall be deemed in each case to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular portion of this Agreement.

(i) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the Holders of shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, and in the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event, the Holders of shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the consideration payable to stockholders in such Deemed Liquidation Event or out of the Available Proceeds (as defined below), as applicable, before any payment shall be made to the holders of Common Stock or other Junior Securities by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share equal to the greater of (i) redemption price calculated pursuant to Section 8(a) or (ii) such amount per share as would have been payable had all shares of Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock pursuant to Section 6 immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution, winding up or Deemed Liquidation Event based on the then effective rate of conversion and without giving effect to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation or any other limitations on conversion set forth herein.

The aggregate amount which a holder of a share of Preferred Stock is entitled to receive under Sections 5(b)(i) and 5(b)(ii) is hereinafter referred to as the “Preferred Stock Liquidation Amount.”

A-12

(c) Deemed Liquidation Events.

(i) In the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event, if the Corporation does not effect a dissolution of the Corporation under the Nevada Revised Statutes within ninety (90) days after such Deemed Liquidation Event, then (i) the Corporation shall send a written notice to each Holder of Preferred Stock no later than the ninetieth (90^th^) day after the Deemed Liquidation Event advising such Holders of their right (and the requirements to be met to secure such right) pursuant to the terms of the following clause to require the redemption of such shares of Preferred Stock, and (ii) if the Holders so request in a written instrument delivered to the Corporation not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after such Deemed Liquidation Event, the Corporation shall use the consideration received by the Corporation for such Deemed Liquidation Event (net of any retained liabilities associated with the assets sold or technology licensed, or any other expenses associated with the Deemed Liquidation Event or the dissolution of the Corporation, in each case as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation), together with any other assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, all to the extent permitted by Nevada law governing distributions to stockholders (the “Available Proceeds”), on the one hundred fiftieth (150^th^) day after such Deemed Liquidation Event, to redeem all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to the Preferred Stock Liquidation Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a redemption pursuant to the preceding sentence, if the Available Proceeds are not sufficient to redeem all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall redeem a pro rata portion of each Holder’s shares of Preferred Stock to the fullest extent of such Available Proceeds, based on the respective amounts that would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares to be redeemed if the Available Proceeds were sufficient to redeem all such shares, and shall redeem the remaining shares as soon as it may lawfully do so under Nevada law governing distributions to stockholders. The provisions of Section 8 shall apply, with such necessary changes in the details thereof as are necessitated by the context, to the redemption of the Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 5(c)(i). Prior to the distribution or redemption provided for in this Section 5(c)(i), the Corporation shall not expend or dissipate the consideration received for such Deemed Liquidation Event, except to discharge expenses incurred in connection with such Deemed Liquidation Event.

(ii) In any Deemed Liquidation Event, if Available Proceeds are in a form of property other than in cash, the value of such distribution shall be deemed to be the fair market value of such property. The determination of fair market value of such property shall be made in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, provided that to the extent such property consists of securities, the fair market value of such securities shall be determined as follows:

For securities not subject to investment letters or other similar restrictions on free marketability covered by Section 5(c)(iii) below, the value shall be the VWAP of such securities.

A-13

(iii) The method of valuation of securities subject to investment letters or other similar restrictions on free marketability (other than restrictions arising solely by virtue of a stockholder’s status as an affiliate or former affiliate) shall take into account an appropriate discount (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation) from the market value as determined pursuant to Section 5(c)(ii) above so as to reflect the approximate fair market value thereof.

(iv) If any portion of the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Corporation is payable only upon satisfaction of contingencies (the “Additional Consideration”), (a) the portion of such consideration that is not Additional Consideration (such portion, the “Initial Consideration”) shall be allocated in accordance with the foregoing Section 5(b) and this Section 5(c) as if the Initial Consideration were the only consideration payable in connection with such Deemed Liquidation Event; and (b) any Additional Consideration which becomes payable to the stockholders of the Corporation upon satisfaction of such contingencies shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Sections 5(b) and 5(c) after taking into account the previous payment of the Initial Consideration as part of the same transaction. For the purposes of this Section 5(c)(iv), consideration placed into escrow or retained as a holdback to be available for satisfaction of indemnification or similar obligations in connection with such Deemed Liquidation Event shall be deemed to be Additional Consideration.

Each share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible at any time and from time to time following the Business Combination Closing Date at the option of the Holder thereof, into that number of whole shares of Common Stock (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6(d)) determined by dividing the Accrued Value of such share of Preferred Stock by the Conversion Price.

If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion to the Corporation is deemed delivered hereunder.

To effect conversions of shares of Preferred Stock, a Holder shall not be required to surrender the certificate(s) representing the shares of Preferred Stock to the Corporation unless all of the shares of Preferred Stock represented thereby are so converted, in which case such Holder shall deliver the certificate representing such shares of Preferred Stock promptly following the Conversion Date at issue.

(iii) Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Corporation’s obligation to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by a Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by such Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Corporation or any violation or alleged violation of law by such Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Corporation to such Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Corporation of any such action that the Corporation may have against such Holder. In the event a Holder shall elect to convert any or all of the Accrued Value of its Preferred Stock, the Corporation may not refuse conversion based on any claim that such Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and/or enjoining conversion of all or part of the Preferred Stock of such Holder shall have been sought and obtained, and the Corporation posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of 150% of the Accrued Value of Preferred Stock which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Corporation shall issue Conversion Shares and, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Corporation fails to deliver to a Holder such Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 6(c)(i) by 10th Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date applicable to such conversion, the Corporation shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $5,000 of Accrued Value of Preferred Stock being converted, $25 per Trading Day (increasing to $50 per Trading Day on the third Trading Day and increasing to $100 per Trading Day on the sixth Trading Day after such damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after the 10th Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such Conversion Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for the Corporation’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit a Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.

A-16

(iv) Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Conversion Shares Upon Conversion. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Corporation fails for any reason unrelated to the actions of the Holder or its Affiliates to deliver to a Holder the applicable Conversion Shares by the Share Delivery Date pursuant to Section 6(c)(i), and if after such Share Delivery Date such Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Conversion Shares which such Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Corporation shall (A) pay in cash to such Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by such Holder) the amount, if any, by which (x) such Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (excluding any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of such Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) the shares of Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Preferred Stock submitted for conversion (in which case, such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Corporation had timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 6(c)(i). For example, if a Holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of shares of Preferred Stock with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares (including any applicable brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Corporation shall be required to pay such Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Corporation written notice indicating the amounts payable to such Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon the request of the Corporation, evidence of the amount of such loss. If a Holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $9,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of shares of Preferred Stock with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares (including any applicable brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000, under clause (A) of the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall not be required to pay Holder any amount. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a Buy-In, the Holder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to purchase shares at the lowest available price, paying the lowest reasonably available brokerage commission. The Holder shall provide the Corporation written notice indicating the amounts payable to such Holder in respect of the Buy-In and evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Corporation’s failure to timely deliver Conversion Shares upon conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

(v) Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Preferred Stock as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the other Holders of the Preferred Stock), not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 7) upon the conversion of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock (assuming for such purpose a Conversion Price equal to $7.50 and any such conversions are made without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein). The Corporation covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and, if a Registration Statement is then effective under the Securities Act, shall be registered for public resale in accordance with such Registration Statement (subject to such Holder’s compliance with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement).

(vi) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Corporation shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but consistent with the provisions of this subsection with respect to fractional Conversion Shares, nothing shall prevent any Holder from converting fractional shares of Preferred Stock.

A-17

(vii) Transfer Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of Conversion Shares on conversion of this Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such Conversion Shares, providedthat the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such Conversion Shares upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holders of such shares of Preferred Stock and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver such Conversion Shares unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

(d) Beneficial Ownership Limitation. A Holder may notify the Corporation in writing in the event it elects to be subject to the provisions contained in this Section 6(d); however, no Holder shall be subject to this Section 6(d) unless he, she or it makes such election. If the election is made, (i) the Corporation shall not effect any conversion of the Preferred Stock, and such Holder shall not have the right to convert all or any portion of the Preferred Stock, to the extent that, after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, such Holder (together with such Holder’s Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own in excess of 4.9%, 9.9% or 19.9% of the Corporation’s Common Stock (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”) and (ii) the Corporation shall not permit the Holder to vote, and such Holder shall not have the right vote pursuant to Section 4(b) of this Certificate of Designation, all or any portion of the Preferred Stock that such Holder is not permitted to convert pursuant to the preceding clause (i) (provided, however, that such Holder shall retain the right to vote pursuant to Section 4(c) of this Certificate of Designation to the extent that retaining such right does not cause such Holder to be deemed to beneficially own Conversion Shares within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Accrued Value of Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Corporation subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, the Preferred Stock or the Warrants) beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 6(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 6(d) applies, the determination of whether the Preferred Stock is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of how many shares of Preferred Stock are convertible shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be such Holder’s determination of whether the shares of Preferred Stock may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and how many shares of the Preferred Stock are convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, each Holder will be deemed to represent to the Corporation each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Corporation shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Holder shall provide the Corporation with any information reasonably requested by the Corporation in connection with this Beneficial Ownership Limitation and the provisions related thereto, in each case with respect to the Corporation’s reporting obligations pursuant to the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other federal or state securities regulations. For purposes of this Section 6(d), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Corporation’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Corporation or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Corporation or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request (which may be via email) of a Holder, the Corporation shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Corporation, including the Preferred Stock, by such Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Corporation, a Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation applicable to such Holder, provided, however, that any such increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the sixty-first (61^st^) day after such notice is delivered to the Corporation. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 6(d) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor Holder of Preferred Stock.

A-18

Section 7. Certain Adjustments.

(a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Corporation, at any time while this Preferred Stock is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any other Common Stock Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Corporation upon conversion of, or payment of a dividend on, this Preferred Stock or any cash distributions), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Corporation, then each of the Conversion Price and the Floor Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Corporation) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 7(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

(b) VWAP Reset. If on the twenty-first Trading Day ending on a Measurement Date, the VWAP (the “Measurement Price”) is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, then the Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the greater of (x) the Measurement Price and (y) $7.50.

(c) Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Issuance of Common Stock. If and whenever after the Business Combination Closing Date until the first date on which no shares of Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 7(c) is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Corporation), other than in connection with any Exempt Issuance, for a consideration per share (the “NewIssuance Price”) less than the Conversion Price then in effect (the “Applicable Price”, and each such issue, sale or deemed issuance or sale, a “Dilutive Issuance”), then, immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price; provided, however, that such an adjustment to the Conversion Price shall not be made unless the Corporation has cumulatively issued more than $3,000,000 in one or more Dilutive Issuances. For all purposes of the foregoing (including, without limitation, determining the adjusted Conversion Price and the New Issuance Price under this Section 7(c)), the following shall be applicable:

(i) Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per share received by the Corporation for Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 7(c)(ii), relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing:

a. the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the issue of<br>such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments<br>relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the<br>Corporation upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options<br>for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible<br>Securities, by
A-19
b. the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without<br>regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 7(c)(ii)<br>upon the issuance of such Options or Convertible Securities.

(ii) Deemed Issuance of Options and Convertible Securities.

a. If the Corporation at any time or from time to time shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities<br>or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or Convertible<br>Securities, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction<br>of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent<br>adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor,<br>the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued as of the time of<br>such issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date.
b. If the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable<br>upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible<br>into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock increases or decreases at any time (other than (i) proportional changes in conversion<br>or exercise prices, as applicable, in connection with an event referred to in Section 7(a) above and (ii) automatic adjustments to such<br>terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security which are not more favorable to the holder<br>thereof than the anti-dilution and similar provisions set forth herein), the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such increase or<br>decrease shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities<br>provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate (as the case<br>may be) at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 7(c), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security<br>that was outstanding as of the date of first issuance of a share of Preferred Stock are increased or decreased in the manner described<br>in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise,<br>conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant<br>to this Section 7(c)(ii) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Conversion Price then in effect.

A-20

(iii) Calculation of Consideration Received. In case any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the Corporation, together comprising one integrated transaction, (x) the Options will be deemed to have been issued for the Option Value of such Options and (y) the other securities issued or sold in such integrated transaction shall be deemed to have been issued or sold for the difference of (I) the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation less any consideration paid or payable by the Corporation pursuant to the terms of such other securities of the Corporation, less (II) the Option Value. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration other than cash received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount received by the Corporation therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Corporation will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Corporation will be the VWAP of such publicly traded securities on the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Corporation is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Corporation and the Required Holders. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Business Days after the tenth (10th) day following the Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Corporation and the Required Holders. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Corporation.

(iv) Record Date. If the Corporation takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase (as the case may be).

A-21

(v) Expiration or Termination of Options or Convertible Securities. Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised Option or unconverted or unexchanged Convertible Securities (or portion thereof) which resulted (either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Section 7(c), the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price as would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Securities (or portion thereof) never been issued.

(d) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(b) or Section 7(c) above, if at any time the Corporation grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holders will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of such Holder’s Preferred Stock (without regard to any limitations on conversion hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation). To the extent that the issue price of such Purchase Rights would result in an adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 7(c), such adjustment shall not occur to the extent the Holders participate in such offering of Purchase Rights and acquire their pro rata portion of such Purchase Rights on the applicable terms.

(e) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Preferred Stock is outstanding, if the Corporation declares or makes any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), in each such case, the Holders shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holders would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Preferred Stock (without regard to any limitations on conversion hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever such grant, issuance or sale, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

A-22

(f) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time after the Business Combination Closing while this Preferred Stock is outstanding, (i) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Person, (ii) the Corporation (and all of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Corporation or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Corporation, (iv) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (other than as a result of a stock split, combination or reclassification of shares of Common Stock covered by Section 7(a)), or (v) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires 50% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Corporation (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Preferred Stock, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 6(d) on the conversion of this Preferred Stock), the number of shares of capital stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Corporation, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “AlternateConsideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Preferred Stock is convertible immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 6(d) on the conversion of this Preferred Stock). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Corporation shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Preferred Stock following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Corporation or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall file a new Certificate of Designation with the same terms and conditions and issue to the Holders new preferred stock consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holders’ right to convert such preferred stock into Alternate Consideration. The Corporation shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Corporation is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate of Designation and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7(e) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holders and approved by the Holders (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder of this Preferred Stock, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Preferred Stock a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Preferred Stock which is convertible for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon conversion of this Preferred Stock (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Preferred Stock) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with a conversion price which applies the Conversion Price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Preferred Stock immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holders. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Certificate of Designation and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Corporation” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Corporation and shall assume all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate of Designation and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Corporation herein.

A-23

(g) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 7 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 7, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Corporation) issued and outstanding.

(h) Notice to the Holders.

(i) Adjustment to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 7, the Corporation shall promptly deliver to each Holder by facsimile or email a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

(ii) Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder. If (A) the Corporation shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Corporation shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Corporation shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Corporation shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Corporation is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation (and all of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property or (E) the Corporation shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, then, in each case, the Corporation shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Preferred Stock, and shall cause to be delivered by email to each Holder at its email address as it shall appear upon the stock books of the Corporation, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Corporation or any of the Subsidiaries, the Corporation shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K, unless determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation that such filing would be harmful to the Corporation at such time, in which case the Corporation shall file such 8-K as soon as is reasonably practicable in its discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the conversion rights of any Holder, each Holder shall remain entitled to convert the Accrued Value of this Preferred Stock (or any part hereof) during the twenty (20)-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

Section 8. Redemption.

(a) Redemption by the Corporation. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8 and unless prohibited by applicable law governing distributions to stockholders, the Corporation may, in its sole discretion, redeem all or a portion of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock:

(i) on or after the Business Combination Closing but prior to the first anniversary of the Business Combination Closing, at a redemption price per share equal to 150% of the Accrued Value;

A-24

(ii) on or after the first anniversary of the Business Combination Closing but prior to the second anniversary of the Business Combination Closing, at a redemption price per share equal to 140% of the Accrued Value;

(iii) on or after the second anniversary of the Business Combination Closing but prior to the third anniversary of the Business Combination Closing, at a redemption price per share equal to 130% of the Accrued Value;

(vi) on or after the fifth anniversary of the Business Combination Closing, at a redemption price per share equal to 100% of the Accrued Value.

If, on the date of such redemption, applicable law governing distributions to stockholders prevents the Corporation from redeeming all shares of Preferred Stock scheduled to be redeemed, the Corporation shall be entitled to ratably redeem the maximum number of shares that it may redeem consistent with such law and any Preferred Stock not so redeemed shall remain outstanding. The Corporation shall provide written notice (the “Corporation Notice”) by e-mail and first class mail postage prepaid, to each Holder of record (determined at the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the day on which the Corporation Notice is given) of the Preferred Stock to be redeemed, at the address last shown on the records of the Corporation for such Holder, notifying such Holder of the redemption to be effected, specifying the number of shares to be redeemed from such Holder, specifying the date of such redemption, the redemption price, the place at which payment may be obtained and calling upon such Holder to surrender to the Corporation, in the manner and at the place designated, his, her or its certificate or certificates representing the shares to be redeemed; provided that the date of redemption shall be not less than 15 days from the date of the Corporation Notice. Except as otherwise provided herein, on or after the applicable date of redemption, each Holder of Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall surrender to the Corporation the certificate or certificates representing such shares, in the manner and at the place designated in the Corporation Notice, and thereupon the price of redemption of such shares shall be payable to the order of the person whose name appears on such certificate or certificates as the owner thereof and each surrendered certificate shall be cancelled. In the event less than all the shares represented by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Holder shall remain entitled to convert its Preferred Stock (or any part thereof) during the 15-day period commencing on the date of the Corporation Notice through the applicable date of redemption at the then-current Conversion Price.

A-25

(b) Redemption by the Holders.

(i) Unless prohibited by applicable law governing distribution to stockholders, shares of Preferred Stock shall be redeemed by the Corporation at a purchase price equal to the Accrued Value (the “Redemption Price”), if at any time and from time to time after the fifth (5^th^) anniversary of the Business Combination Closing, the Holder delivers to the Corporation a written notice demanding redemption of some or all of its shares of Preferred Stock (the “Redemption Request”). Upon receipt of a Redemption Request, the Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to apply all of its assets to pay any such Redemption Price, and to no other corporate purpose, until the Redemption Price has been paid in full, except to the extent prohibited by Nevada law governing distributions to stockholders.

(ii) Not more than 5 days after the date of receipt of the Redemption Request, the Corporation shall send written notice of the mandatory redemption (the “Redemption Notice”) to each Holder of record of Preferred Stock. The 20th day after the date of the Redemption Notice shall be referred to as the “Redemption Date.” The Redemption Notice shall state:

a. the number of shares of Preferred Stock held by the Holder that the Corporation shall redeem on the Redemption<br>Date;
b. the Redemption Date and the Redemption Price;
--- ---
c. the date upon which the Holder’s right to convert such shares terminates; and
--- ---
d. for Holders of shares in certificated form, that the Holder is to surrender to the Corporation, in the<br>manner and at the place designated, his, her or its certificate or certificates representing the shares of Preferred Stock to be redeemed.
--- ---

(iii) On the Redemption Date, the Corporation shall redeem the Preferred Stock owned by each Holder. If on the Redemption Date Nevada law governing distributions to stockholders prevents the Corporation from redeeming all shares of Preferred Stock to be redeemed, the Corporation shall ratably redeem the maximum number of shares that it may redeem consistent with such law, and shall redeem the remaining shares as soon as it may lawfully do so under such law. In the event that any portion of the Redemption Price has not been paid within five (5) Business Days following the Redemption Date, interest on such unpaid portion of the Redemption Price shall accrue thereon until such amount is paid in full at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) 15.0% per annum and (ii) the maximum rate permitted under applicable law (the “AdditionalInterest”). Such Additional Interest shall be paid by the Corporation, in its sole discretion, in cash or in shares of Common Stock; provided that (i) for the avoidance of doubt, any principal or interest paid by the Corporation with respect to a redemption pursuant to Section 8(c) shall be payable solely in cash; (ii) the Corporation cannot elect to pay any such Additional Interest in shares of Common Stock if such issuance would result in any Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation; and (iii) the Corporation cannot elect to pay such Additional Interest in shares of Common Stock unless such shares of Common Stock have been registered for resale under the Securities Act substantially concurrently to such issuance to the applicable Holders or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is available for a public resale.

A-26

(c) Mandatory Redemption if BCA Terminated. If, prior to the Business Combination Closing, the Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms for any reason (a “BCA Termination”), then the Corporation shall (i) as soon as practicable thereafter, deliver to the Holders written notice of the BCA Termination (the “BCA Termination Notice”), which notice shall include the information set forth in Section 8(b)(ii)(a), (b), and (d) above, except that the Redemption Date stated therein shall be not later than twenty (20) Business Days after the date of the BCA Termination, and (ii) redeem the Preferred Stock in its entirety on the Redemption Date set forth in the BCA Termination Notice. The provisions of Section 8(b)(iii) shall apply to a redemption under this Section 8(c). The Corporation’s obligation to redeem the Preferred Stock under this Section 8(c) shall be guaranteed by the Parent Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to any BCA Termination, all the closing conditions to the Business Combination Agreement are satisfied or (except with respect to the Minimum Cash Condition (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement)) waived, and the Holder is in breach of its PIPE Financing Obligation, then the Corporation shall not be required to redeem the Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 8(c).

(d) Fundamental Transaction Redemption Offer. Following the Business Combination Closing, if the Corporation proposes to enter into a Fundamental Transaction, then it shall offer to redeem all of the Preferred Stock upon consummation of such Fundamental Transaction for cash equal to the greater of (i) the applicable redemption price calculated pursuant to Section 8(a) and (ii) the amount of Alternate Consideration the Holders would receive in the Fundamental Transaction. The redemption procedures under Sections 8(b)(ii) and 8(b)(iii) shall apply to this Section 8(d).

(e) Rights Subsequent to Redemption. Upon the redemption of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 8(a), Section 8(b), Section 8(c) or Section 8(d), all rights with respect to such shares of Preferred Stock shall immediately terminate, except with respect to the right of the Holders to receive the applicable redemption price with respect to such shares of Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 8(a), Section 8(b), Section 8(c) or Section 8(d), as applicable.

Section 9. Miscellaneous.

(a) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holders hereunder including, without limitation, any Notice of Conversion, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by e-mail, or sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Corporation, at the address or email address most recently provided to Holders by the Corporation for purposes of notice hereunder Attention: Ian Rogers, 241 Ridge Street, Suite 210, Reno, Nevada 89501, e-mail address: Ian@jindaleelithium.com, or such other e-mail address or address as the Corporation may specify for such purposes by notice to the Holders delivered in accordance with this Section 9.

A-27

(b) Absolute Obligation. Except as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Certificate of Designation shall alter or impair the obligation of the Corporation, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay liquidated damages and accrued dividends, as applicable, on the shares of Preferred Stock at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

(c) Lost or Mutilated Preferred Stock Certificate. If a Holder’s Preferred Stock certificate shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Corporation shall issue or cause to be issued, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of a mutilated certificate, or in lieu of or in substitution for a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, a new certificate for the shares of Preferred Stock so mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such certificate, and of the ownership hereof reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation (which shall not include the posting of any bond). The applicant for a new certificate under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement certificate.

(d) Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Certificate of Designation shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof. All legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Certificate of Designation (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in Clark County, Nevada (City of Las Vegas) (the “NevadaCourts”). The Corporation and each Holder hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Nevada Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such Nevada Courts, or such Nevada Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. The Corporation and each Holder hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Certificate of Designation and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. The Corporation and each Holder hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Certificate of Designation or the transactions contemplated hereby. If the Corporation or any Holder shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Certificate of Designation, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

A-28

(e) Amendment. This Certificate of Designation (or any provision hereof) may be amended by obtaining the affirmative vote at a meeting duly called for such purpose, or written consent without a meeting in accordance with the Nevada Revised Statutes, of the Holders, voting separately as a single class, and with such other stockholder approval, if any, as may then be required pursuant to the NRS and the Corporation’s articles of incorporation; provided, however, and notwithstanding anything in this Certificate of Designation to the contrary, no provision of this Certificate of Designation shall be amended to the extent any such amendment would disproportionately, materially and adversely modify any rights of any Holder (as compared to the rights of the other Holders) that holds more than two percent of the issued and outstanding Preferred Stock, unless any such Holder shall have previously consented in writing to such amendment or voted to approve such amendment at a meeting; provided that if any securities are issued and sold pursuant to the “Private Placement” contemplated in the Business Combination Agreement, whether prior to or at the Business Combination Consummation, with any term more favorable to the purchaser thereof than the terms set forth in this Certificate of Designation, the Purchase Agreement, the Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement, and the exhibits and schedules thereto, applicable to the Holder (including, without limitation, valuation, conversion price or mechanics, discount, warrant coverage, liquidation preference, anti-dilution protection, or other economic or governance right), then the Corporation shall, at the option of the Holder, promptly amend any applicable Transaction Document, including this Certificate of Designation, to incorporate such more favorable term or terms (the “MFN Amendment Requirement”).

(f) Waiver. Any waiver by the Corporation or a Holder of a breach of any provision of this Certificate of Designation shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Certificate of Designation or a waiver by any other Holders. The failure of the Corporation or a Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Certificate of Designation on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party (or any other Holder) of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Certificate of Designation on any other occasion. Any waiver by the Corporation or a Holder must be in writing.

(g) Severability. If any provision of this Certificate of Designation is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Certificate of Designation shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law.

A-29

(h) Next Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

(i) Headings. The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Certificate of Designation and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

(j) Status of Converted or Redeemed Preferred Stock. Shares of Preferred Stock may only be issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. If any shares of Preferred Stock shall be converted, redeemed or reacquired by the Corporation, such shares shall resume the status of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock and shall no longer be designated as 12.0% Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock.

(k) Tax Withholding. The Corporation agrees that, provided that each Holder delivers to the Corporation a properly executed IRS Form W-9 or other certification satisfactory to the Corporation certifying as to such Holder’s status (or the status of such Holder’s beneficial owner(s)) as a United States person (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) and such Holder’s (or such beneficial owners’) eligibility for complete exemption from backup withholding (“U.S. Person Certification”), under current law the Corporation (including any paying agent of the Corporation) shall not be required to, and shall not, withhold on any payments or deemed payments to any such Holder. Subject to Section 9(l), in the event that any Holder fails to deliver to the Corporation such properly executed U.S. Person Certification, the Corporation reasonably believes that a previously delivered U.S. Person Certification is no longer accurate and/or valid, or there is a change in law that affects the withholding obligations of the Corporation, the Corporation and its paying agent shall be entitled to withhold taxes on all payments made to the relevant Holder in the form of cash or otherwise treated, in the Corporation’s reasonable discretion, as a dividend for U.S. federal tax purposes or to request that the relevant Holder promptly pay the Corporation in cash any amounts required to satisfy any withholding tax obligations, in each case, to the extent the Corporation or its paying agent determines in good faith it is required to deduct and withhold tax on payments to the relevant Holder under applicable law; provided, that the Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the relevant Holder of any required withholding tax reasonably in advance of the date of the relevant payment and give such Holder reasonable opportunity to establish an exemption from, or a reduced rate of, withholding prior to making such payment.

(l) Tax Treatment. Each holder of Preferred Stock and the Corporation shall not treat the Preferred Stock as “preferred stock” within the meaning of Section 305 of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.305-5 for United States federal income tax and withholding tax purposes, and the Corporation and each holder of Preferred Stock that no holder of Preferred Stock nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to include in income any dividend income for U.S. federal income Tax purposes by reason of the application of Section 305 of the Code to the Preferred Stock except to the extent of the amount of any dividends accruing on the Preferred Stock that are declared and paid in cash. Absent a change in law or a contrary determination (as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”)), no holder of Preferred Stock nor the Corporation shall not take any position (including on any IRS Form 1099) inconsistent for applicable tax purposes with such treatment.

Warrant Shares: [_______]^1^ Initial Exercise Date: [_______], 202[●]

THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, [_____________] or its assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on [_____], 202[●]^2^ (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from US Elemental Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), up to [______] shares (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “PurchaseAgreement”), dated as of April 9, 2026, by and among the Company, HiTech Minerals, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and the purchaser signatory thereto, including the Certificate of Designation attached as Exhibit A thereto.

Section 2. Exercise.

(a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency that the Company may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company), as applicable, of a duly executed facsimile copy or PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto (the “Notice of Exercise”). Not later than the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein) following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver to the Company the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of thisWarrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the WarrantShares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated onthe face hereof.

^1^ To be a number equal to the Accrued Value (as defined in the<br>Certificate of Designation) divided by the Conversion Price (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), in each case, measured as<br>of the date of the Business Combination Consummation.
^2^ To be the date that is five years from the date of the Business<br>Combination Consummation.

(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $11.50, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “ExercisePrice”).

(c) Cashless Exercise. This Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time after the Initial Exercise Date by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing ((A-B) multiplied by (X)) by (A), where:

(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;

(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and

(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the characteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).

Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the bid price of the Common Stock for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for the 20 Trading Days preceding such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for the 20 Trading Days preceding such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the average of the highest closing bid price per share and the lowest closing ask price per share of the Common Stock for the 20 Trading Days preceding such date, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

2

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the Termination Date, this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2(c). Furthermore, if (A-B) is less than zero, then the number of Warrant Shares to be delivered to the Holder shall equal zero.

(d) Mechanics of Exercise.

(i) Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system if the Company is then a participant in such system and there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, (or reasonable evidence of issuance by book entry of ownership of the Warrant Shares) registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the later of (i) the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, and (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”); provided, however, in any event, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver Warrant Shares until it has received the aggregate Exercise Price therefor (other than in the case of a cashless exercise). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received no later than the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

(ii) Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

(iii) Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date (subject to receipt of the aggregate Exercise Price for the applicable exercise (other than in the case of a cashless exercise)), then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise prior to the delivery of the Warrant Shares.

(iv) No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

(v) Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares pursuant to the terms of this Warrant.

(vi) Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner intended to prevent the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

(e) Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Holder may notify the Company in writing in the event it elects to be subject to the provisions contained in this Section 2(e); however, the Holder shall not be subject to this Section 2(e) unless he, she or it makes such election. If the election is made, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own in excess of 4.9%, 9.9% or 19.9% of the Company’s Common Stock (as specified in the Holder’s notice pursuant to which the Holder elects to be subject to this Section) (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder, its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and, of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable up to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s good faith determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination and shall have no liability for exercises of this Warrant that are not in compliance with the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination and shall have no liability for exercises of the Warrant that are not in compliance with the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation applicable to the Holder, provided, however, that any such increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

Section 3. Certain Adjustments.

(a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant or any cash distributions), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

(b) VWAP Reset. If on the twenty-first Trading Day ending on a Measurement Date, the VWAP (the “Measurement Price”) is less than the Exercise Price then in effect, then the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the greater of (x) the Measurement Price and (y) $7.50.

(c) Adjustment Upon Issuance of Common Stock. If and whenever after the Closing Date, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 3(c) is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company), other than in connection with any Exempt Issuance, for a consideration per share (the “NewIssuance Price”) less than the Exercise Price then in effect (the “Applicable Price”, and each such issue, sale or deemed issuance or sale, a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price; provided, however, that such an adjustment to the Conversion Price shall not be made unless the Company has cumulatively issued more than $3,000,000 in one or more Dilutive Issuances.

For purposes of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under this Section 3(c), the following shall be applicable:

(i) Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per share received by the Company for Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 3(c)(ii), relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing: (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Company upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by (y) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 3(c)(ii) upon the issuance of such Options or Convertible Securities.

5

(ii) Deemed Issuance of Options and Convertible Securities. If the Company at any time or from time to time shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or Convertible Securities, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date.

(iii) Change in Option Price. If, after the Initial Exercise Date, the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock increases or decreases at any time, (other than (x) proportional changes in conversion or exercise prices, as applicable, in connection with an event referred to in Section 3(a) above and (y) automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security which are not more favorable to the holder thereof than the anti-dilution and similar provisions set forth herein), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price, which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 3(c)(iii), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the Initial Exercise Date are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(c) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect.

(iv) Calculation of Consideration Received. In case any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction, (x) the Options will be deemed to have been issued for the Option Value of such Options and (y) the other securities issued or sold in such integrated transaction shall be deemed to have been issued or sold for the difference of (I) the aggregate consideration received by the Company less any consideration paid or payable by the Company pursuant to the terms of such other securities of the Company, less (II) the Option Value. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration other than cash received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the closing sale price of such publicly traded securities on the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Company and a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Business Days after the tenth (10th) day following the Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

6

(v) Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

(vi) Expiration or Termination of Options or Convertible Securities. Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised Option or unconverted or unexchanged Convertible Securities (or portion thereof) which resulted (either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of Section 3(b), the Exercise Price shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price as would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Securities (or portion thereof) never been issued.

(d) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a), (b) and (c) above, if at any time after the Initial Exercise Date the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, any applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding any applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding any applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitation). To the extent that the issue price of such Purchase Rights would result in an adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 3(c) above, such adjustment shall not occur to the extent the Holder participates in such offering of Purchase Rights and acquires its pro rata portion of such Purchase Rights on the applicable terms.

(e) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time after the Initial Exercise Date as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, any applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding any applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding any applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

7

(f) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time after the Initial Exercise Date while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company (and all of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole), directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (other than as a result of a stock split, combination or reclassification of shares of Common Stock covered by Section 3(a)), or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires 50% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction; provided, that if holders of Common Stock of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Common Stock will be deemed to have received common stock or ordinary shares of the Successor Entity (which Successor Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction. “BlackScholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the greater of (i) the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (ii) the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3(f), (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five Business Days of the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(f) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the Exercise Price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

8

(g) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

(h) Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 3(a), the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment (without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein).

(i) Notice to Holder.

(i) Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by facsimile or email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

(ii) Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by facsimile or email to the Holder at its last facsimile number or email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided to the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K, unless determined by the board of directors of the Company that such filing would be harmful to the Company at such time, in which case the Company shall file such 8-K as soon as is reasonably practicable in its discretion. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

9

(j) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant, subject to the prior written consent of the Holder, reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Company.

Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.

(a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

(b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Initial Exercise Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

(c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “WarrantRegister”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

(d) Transfer Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be either (i) registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws or (ii) eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information requirements pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer, that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, comply with the provisions of Section 5.7 of the Purchase Agreement.

(e) Representation by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.

10

Section 5. Miscellaneous.

(a) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3.

(b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

(c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

(d) Authorized Shares.

(i) The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant (without regard to any limitation on exercise set forth herein and assuming an Exercise Price equal to the lower of (i) $7.50 and (ii) the Exercise Price then in effect). The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant.

(ii) Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its Certificate of Incorporation (or any Certificate of Designation thereto) or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

PARENT GUARANTEE

This PARENT GUARANTEE, dated as of April 9, 2026 (this “Guarantee”), is made and entered into by Jindalee Lithium Limited, an Australian public company (the “Guarantor”), in favor of Endurance Antarctica Partners II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Purchaser”), in connection with the transactions contemplated by that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof, by and among the Guarantor, the Purchaser and HiTech Minerals Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Guarantee shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to issue and sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser has agreed to purchase from the Company the Preferred Stock, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein;


WHEREAS, the terms of the Preferred Stock are set forth in the Certificate of Designation;

WHEREAS, the Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Guarantor;

WHEREAS, Section 8(c) of the Certificate of Designation contemplates that if, prior to the Business Combination Consummation, the Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, then the Company will redeem the Preferred Stock and any Accrued Value in its entirety (the “BCA Termination Redemption”) and that the Company’s obligation to redeem such Preferred Stock in connection with the BCA Termination Redemption will be guaranteed by Guarantor;

WHEREAS, the Guarantor will obtain benefits as a result of the execution and performance of the Purchase Agreement by the Company and the Purchaser, and, as an inducement for the Company and the Purchaser to enter into and effect the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Guarantor has agreed to enter into this Guarantee.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in consideration of the Company and the Purchaser entering into the Purchase Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged), and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

(1) The Guarantor hereby absolutely, fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, to the Purchaser the performance by the Company of its obligations with respect to the BCA Termination Redemption if, as and when such performance becomes due under the terms of the Certificate of Designation and the Purchase Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

(2) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall arise only if (a) a Guaranteed Obligation has become due and payable in accordance with the Purchase Agreement and the Certificate of Designation, (b) the Company has failed to pay or perform such Guaranteed Obligation when due, and (c) such failure continues beyond twenty (20) Business Days following the date of the BCA Termination Notice. No later than the twenty-first (21^st^) Business Day following the date of the BCA Termination Notice (the “Payment Due Date”), the Guarantor shall promptly perform, or cause to be performed, or pay, or cause to be paid, to the Purchaser such unpaid or unperformed Guaranteed Obligations in the manner prescribed in the Purchase Agreement and Certificate of Designation as if the Guarantor was the Company.

(3) This Guarantee is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guarantee of the full and punctual performance by the Company of the Guaranteed Obligations, notwithstanding any amendment, modification or supplementation of the Purchase Agreement or any other circumstances that might constitute a defense available to the Guarantor (other than (i) the defense that the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid or performed in full in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the Certificate of Designation or (ii) the defense that the BCA Termination Redemption has not become due and payable in accordance with Section 8(c) of the Certificate of Designation). For the avoidance of doubt, the Guarantor shall not be entitled to assert any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or reduction that may be available to the Company arising out of or relating to (a) any breach by the Purchaser or the Company of their respective representations, warranties, or covenants under the Purchase Agreement, or (b) any condition to closing under the Purchase Agreement that has not been satisfied or waived, in each case, except to the extent such defense directly relates to the calculation of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations or the determination that the BCA Termination Redemption has become due and payable. No waiver of any breach of any provision shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision, nor shall any waiver be implied from any course of dealing. No extension of time for performance of any obligations or other acts hereunder shall be deemed to be an extension of the time for performance of any other obligations or any other acts. The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (a) any defense based upon or arising by reason of any lack of authority of the officers, directors or any agents of the Company or the Guarantor; (b) promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guarantee; (c) any right to require the Purchaser to proceed against the Company, or pursue any other remedy in the Purchaser’s power before proceeding against the Guarantor; (d) any defense based upon or arising by reason of the application of the statute of limitations to any claim against the Company or the Guarantor; and (e) any right of subrogation and any right to enforce any remedy which the Purchaser now has or may hereafter have against the Company. The Guarantor agrees that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, and that, but for this Guarantee and such waivers, the Purchaser would not have entered into the Purchase Agreement. Any breach of the covenants set forth in this Section shall constitute a default under this Guarantee, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies available hereunder, under the Purchase Agreement, the Certificate of Designation or at law or in equity.

(4) The Guarantor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Purchaser as follows: (i) the Guarantor has all requisite power, authority and legal capacity to execute and deliver this Guarantee and perform its obligations hereunder; (ii) the execution and delivery of this Guarantee has been duly authorized by all required action by the Guarantor and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting or relating to creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles; (iii) neither the Guarantor’s execution and delivery of this Guarantee nor the performance by the Guarantor of its obligations hereunder will violate or conflict with (a) the organizational documents of the Guarantor, (b) violate any Law applicable to, binding upon or enforceable against the Guarantor, (c) result in any material breach of, or constitute a material default (or an event which would, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, constitute a material default) under, or give rise to a right of payment under or the right to terminate any contract to which the Guarantor is a party or is bound, (d) result in the creation or imposition of any lien or encumbrance upon any of the material property or material assets of the Guarantor or (e) require the consent or approval of any governmental authority or any other person; and (iv) the Guarantor shall maintain, at all times, consolidated net assets (as determined in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards) of not less than value of the Guaranteed Obligations (the “Minimum Net Worth”). The Guarantor shall promptly notify the Purchaser in writing if the Guarantor’s consolidated net assets fall below the Minimum Net Worth.

Compelling Project Economics

MANAGEMENT COMMENTS

“Establishing US Elemental as a U.S.-listed company represents an important milestone in unlocking the value of our U.S. lithium assets,” commented Ian Rodger, Chief Executive Officer of Jindalee and incoming Chief Executive Officer of US Elemental.

“We believe the McDermitt Project is one of the largest lithium resources in the United States, and this Transaction is expected to position the Company  to access the capital and strategic partnerships needed to advance development. We believe a U.S. listing provides stronger alignment with investors, policy initiatives and industrial partners focused on building a secure domestic critical minerals supply chain,” Rodger concluded.

Chandra Patel, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Constellation and Managing Partner of Antarctica Capital, said:

“We believe US Elemental offers investors exposure to a significant U.S. lithium resource at an important time for the industry. Demand for battery materials continues to grow and there is increasing emphasis on developing domestic sources of supply. The McDermitt Project, combined with the team’s experience and the scale of the resource, creates a strong platform for long-term growth. In addition, we believe our track record as a constructive and value-added sponsor makes us compelling partners to enable the Company to successfully execute its public listing and become an industry leader.”

Transaction Overview

Jindalee Lithium Limited (Jindalee, the Company; ASX: JLL, OTCQX: JNDAF) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned United States (US) operating subsidiary, HiTech Minerals, Inc. (HiTech), has entered into a binding Business Combination Agreement (BCA) with Constellation Acquisition Corp I (Constellation) (OTCPK: CSTAF), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), sponsored by Antarctica Capital, LLC (Antarctica), pursuant to which newly-formed US Elemental Inc. (US Elemental) is expected to become a NASDAQ listed company holding Jindalee’s US assets (Transaction).

Upon completion, HiTech will become a wholly owned subsidiary of US Elemental, which will own the McDermitt Lithium Project in Oregon, one of the largest lithium resources in the US^1^ (McDermitt Project, Project). Jindalee is expected to retain a majority interest of 80% or more in US Elemental at completion, subject to customary adjustments including financing outcomes and Constellation shareholder redemptions.

The Transaction implies a pro forma enterprise value for US Elemental of approximately US$571 million, including an implied equity valuation of US$500 million for Jindalee’s US assets (see Annexure C). The Transaction also contemplates a capital raise of approximately US$20-30 million, which includes a binding US$4.0 million commitment from an affiliate of Antarctica, of which approximately US$1.5 million to be funded immediately upon signing of the BCA and a further US$2.5 million is committed for funding at completion, pursuant to a funding agreement executed in connection with the BCA (see summary of terms in Annexure A).

PO Box 1033, West Perth, WA 6872 F: +61 9321 7950

Completion of the Transaction is subject to customary regulatory and closing conditions, including approval by Constellation shareholders, approval of the Transaction by Jindalee’s shareholders for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 11.4, and satisfaction of the minimum cash condition (US$14M net of certain expenses).

Upon completion of the Transaction, US Elemental is expected to be listed on NASDAQ and provide a US-listed platform to support advancement of the McDermitt Project and the broader US Elemental strategy. The Transaction will be implemented through a series of mergers involving Constellation, US Elemental, and merger subsidiaries.

Commenting on the execution of the BCA, Jindalee’s Managing Director and CEO Ian Rodger said:

“Execution of the Business CombinationAgreement represents a key milestone in advancing our strategy to access US capital markets to support development of the McDermitt Project.The proposed Transaction and US listing of US Elemental is expected to improve our ability to fund the next phase of work, including infilldrilling, advanced metallurgical optimisation and feasibility level studies.

Since signing the Letter of Intent with Constellation^2^late last year, lithium market conditions have improved, supported by growing demand from battery energy storage systems, while US Governmentsupport for critical minerals development has continued to build momentum. Investor interest in US Elemental has been strong, alongsidethe previously announced non-binding term sheet for an up to US$100M Equity Line of Credit to be provided by L1 Capital Global OpportunitiesMaster Fund^3^, reinforcing our confidence in both the timing and strategic rationale for the Transaction.

Importantly, the Transaction is structuredso that Jindalee retains majority ownership of the Project, while establishing a funding pathway aligned with its scale and long-termdevelopment.

Our focus remains on advancing the McDermittProject in a disciplined and technically robust manner, with capital directed toward clearly defined work programs that underpin permitting,engineering confidence and long-term development decisions.”

Commenting on the execution of the BCA, Chandra Patel, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Constellation and Managing Partner of Antarctica Capital, said:

“We believe US Elemental offers investorsexposure to a significant US lithium resource at an important time for the industry. Demand for battery materials continues to grow andthere is increasing emphasis on developing domestic sources of supply. The McDermitt Project, combined with the US Elemental team’sexperience and the scale of the resource, creates a strong platform for long-term growth. In addition, we believe our track record asa constructive and value-added sponsor makes us compelling partners to enable US Elemental to successfully execute its public listingand become an industry leader.”

Key Terms of the BCA

A copy of the BCA, which sets out the terms and conditions of the Transaction, is attached to this announcement.

In summary, the Transaction will be implemented through a two-step merger structure whereby Constellation will merge with a wholly owned subsidiary of US Elemental, and HiTech will subsequently merge with a separate subsidiary of US Elemental, with HiTech surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of US Elemental following completion. The proforma corporate structure is included in Annexure B.

| --- | --- |

Under the terms of the BCA, HiTech ordinary shareholders, being Jindalee, will receive 50 million common shares in US Elemental as consideration for the acquisition of HiTech. These ordinary shares are initially valued at US$10 per share, equating to an implied equity value of US$500 million. Jindalee is expected to retain a majority equity interest in US Elemental following completion, with precise ownership outcomes subject to customary adjustments, including Constellation shareholder redemptions and actual equity issued pursuant to financing arrangements.

The Transaction contemplates a capital raise of US$20-30 million, with proceeds expected to fund certain transaction costs, US Elemental working capital and Project activities, including a large infill drill program and feasibility study work streams. In connection with signing of the BCA, a binding Funding Agreement has been executed with an affiliate of Constellation’s sponsor, Antarctica, providing approximately US$1.5 million immediately and a further US$2.5 million committed for funding at completion. The key terms of the Funding Agreement are summarised in Annexure A.

Completion of the Transaction is subject to satisfaction of a minimum cash condition of US$14 million net of certain transaction expenses, which is intended to ensure US Elemental has sufficient funding available at completion. The minimum cash condition is expected to be met through additional capital raising (described above). Certain loans advanced by Jindalee to HiTech prior to completion will be converted to US Elemental warrants and certain other loans by Jindalee may, at Jindalee’s election, be repaid in cash or converted into equity in US Elemental on agreed terms at completion.

Upon completion of the Transaction, the board of directors of US Elemental is expected to comprise nominees of both Jindalee and Constellation, reflecting customary governance arrangements for a de-SPAC transaction. Jindalee will have majority representation on the post-completion board, ensuring ongoing involvement in the strategic direction and oversight of US Elemental.

Completion of the Transaction is subject to various regulatory and closing conditions, including approval by Constellation shareholders, approval by Jindalee shareholders (including for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 11.4), listing approval by NASDAQ, receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, completion of audited and Securities and Exchange Commission**(SEC**) compliant financial statements, effectiveness of the relevant US registration statement, satisfaction of the minimum cash condition (which may be waived by Jindalee), and the absence of material adverse change events (for both Jindalee and the SPAC).

The BCA includes customary exclusivity, representations and warranties, and covenants for a transaction of this nature. It also includes provisions permitting Jindalee to consider a superior proposal, subject to customary fiduciary out and matching right provisions. In certain circumstances where the Transaction does not proceed following a superior proposal, a capped reimbursement of Constellation’s transaction costs may be payable.  Either party may terminate the BCA if the transaction is not completed within 9 months of its execution.

The BCA also contains customary 12-month lock-up arrangements in respect of certain US Elemental securities held by Jindalee and Antarctica following completion.

Strategic Rationale and Unanimous Recommendationof the Board

The board of Jindalee (Board) believes the Transaction represents a strategically important step in advancing the Company’s previously announced strategy to position its US assets within a US domiciled, US listed corporate structure. Establishing US Elemental as the holding company for the McDermitt Project is intended to create better alignment with US capital markets, policy priorities and investor bases that are increasingly focused on domestic critical minerals supply.

| Jindalee Signs BCA to List McDermitt on NASDAQ – April 2026 | 3 |

| --- | --- |

The proposed NASDAQ listing of US Elemental is expected to enhance access to US institutional and strategic capital, which the Board considers critical to supporting the next phase of project advancement. The McDermitt Project has reached a stage where significant capital is required to fund infill drilling, advance metallurgical optimisation and feasibility level studies, and the Transaction is intended to improve funding of these activities in a manner consistent with the scale and strategic importance of the Project.

The Board also considers the Transaction to be well aligned with the evolving US regulatory and policy environment, with Lithium and Magnesium designated as critical minerals and in an environment where there is increasing government support for domestic supply chains. Structuring the Project within a NASDAQ listing is expected to strengthen US Elemental’s position with respect to government agencies, potential funding programs and strategic counterparties.

Importantly, the Transaction is structured to allow Jindalee shareholders to retain meaningful exposure to the long-term value of the McDermitt Project, with Jindalee expected to retain a majority ownership interest in US Elemental following completion, providing continued participation in project upside, whilst accessing the benefits of a US public listing.

Overall, the Board believes the Transaction provides a pathway to accelerate development of the McDermitt Project, enhance funding optionality and maintain alignment between Jindalee and its shareholders as the Project progresses toward feasibility and potential development.

Each member of the Board considers that the Transaction is in the best interests of Jindalee shareholders and intends to vote all Shares they own or control in favour of the Transaction.

Additionally, Jindalee has received a binding commitment from each of Mr Lindsay Dudfield, Mr Dudfield and Mrs Yvonne Dudfield (as trustees of the LD Dudfield Pension Fund) and Jopan Management Pty Ltd, a company owned by Mr Dudfield’s wife, which as at the date of this announcement, together hold or control approximately 20,094,514 Shares or 19.61% of Jindalee’s issued capital on an undiluted basis, that they each intend to vote, or cause to be voted, all Shares that they hold or control in favour of the Transaction in the absence of a Superior Proposal or an Intervening Event (as those terms are defined in the BCA).


Shareholder Approvals

Jindalee intends to convene a general meeting to seek shareholder approval for the Transaction for the purpose of Listing Rule 11.4.

A notice of meeting for the Transaction and its related matters will be circulated to shareholders in due course.

Jindalee shareholders do not need to take any action at this time.

INVESTOR PRESENTATION | 3 U.S. DisclaimersContinued Forward - Looking Statements Continued ( 9 ) the ability of NewCo to issue equity or equity - linked securities in the future; ( 10 ) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Contracting Parties ; ( 11 ) changes to the proposedstructure of the Potential Business Combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations ; (12 ) the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards following the Potential Business Combination ; ( 13 ) the risk that the PotentialBusiness Combination disrupts current plans and operations of the Company ; ( 14 ) the availability of federal, state or local governmentsupport, and risks related to extensive regulation, compliance obligations and rigorous enforcement by federal, state, and non - U .S . governmental authorities ; and ( 15 ) expectations related to the terms and timing of the Potential Business Combination and theability of the parties to successfully consummate the Potential Business Combination . These statements are based on various assumptions,whether or not identified in these Presentation Materials, and on the current expectations of the Contracting Company’s managementand are not predictions of actual performance . These forward - looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and arenot intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statementof fact or probability . Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions . Manyactual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Contracting Parties . These forward - looking statements are subject toa number of risks and uncertainties, as set forth in the slide entitled “Risk Factors” in the appendix to these PresentationMaterials and those set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward - LookingStatements and Risk Factor Summary” in Constellation’s Annual Report on Form 10 - K for the year ended December 31 , 2024, and in those other documents that Constellation has filed, or that Constellation and NewCo will file, with the U . S . Securities andExchange Commission (the “SEC”) . If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results coulddiffer materially from the results implied by these forward - looking statements . The risks and uncertainties above are not exhaustive,and there may be additional risks that none of the Contracting Parties presently know or that they currently believe are immaterial thatcould also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward - looking statements . In addition, forward looking statementsreflect relevant Contracting Parties’ expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of these PresentationMaterials . Each of the Contracting Parties anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause those assessments to change. However, while the Contracting Parties may elect to update these forward - looking statements at some point in the future, each ofthe Contracting Parties specifically disclaim any obligation to do so . These forward - looking statements should not be relied uponas representing any of the Contracting Parties’ assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of these Presentation Materials. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward - looking statements . Use of Projections The projections, estimatesand targets in these Presentation Materials are forward - looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subjectto significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond any of the Contracting Party's control . See "Forward - LookingStatements" above . The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected, expected or target results are inherently uncertain and aresubject to a wide variety of significant business, economic, regulatory, competitive, technological and other risks and uncertaintiesthat could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in such projections, estimates and targets . The projectionsare for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results . The assumptionsand estimates underlying the prospective information are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business,economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the prospectiveinformation . While all projections, estimates and targets are necessarily speculative, each of the Contracting Parties believe thatthe preparation of prospective information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection, estimateor target extends from the date of preparation . Accordingly, there can be no assurance that prospective results are indicative of futureperformance or that actual results will not differ materially from any results presented or indicated in the prospective information. The inclusion of projections, estimates and targets in these Presentation Materials should not be regarded as an indication that anyof the Contracting Parties, or their representatives, considered or consider the financial projections, estimates and targets to be areliable prediction of future events . Neither the independent auditors of Constellation nor the independent registered public accountingfirm or mining consultants or engineers of the Jindalee , NewCo or the Company has audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedureswith respect to the projections for the purpose of their inclusion in these Presentation Materials, and accordingly, neither of themexpressed an opinion or provided any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of these Presentation Materials . Non- GAAP Measures These Presentation Materials include certain financial measures not presented in accordance with United States generallyaccepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) . These non - GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance inaccordance with GAAP and may exclude items are significant in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial results . Therefore,these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows from operations or other measuresof profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP . You should be aware that the Company’s presentation of these measures maynot be comparable to similarly - titled measures used by other companies . Jindalee and the Company believe these non - GAAP measuresof financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relatingto the Company’s financial condition and results of operations . These Presentation Materials also include certain projectionsof non - GAAP financial measures . Due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of some ofthe information excluded from these projected measures, together with some of the excluded information not being ascertainable or accessible,Jindalee and the Company are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparableGAAP financial measures without unreasonable effort . Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable GAAP measures is included andno reconciliation of the forward - looking non - GAAP financial measures is included . Important Information and Where to Find It Inconnection with a Potential Business Combination, Constellation, Jindalee , the Company and NewCo are expected to prepare a registrationstatement on Form S - 4 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the SEC by NewCo , which will include preliminaryand definitive proxy statements to be distributed to Constellation’s shareholders in connection with Constellation’s solicitationfor proxies for the vote by Constellation’s shareholders in connection with the Potential Business Combination and other mattersas described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer of the securities of NewCo in connectionwith the completion of the Potential Business Combination . After the Registration Statement has been filed and declared effective, Constellationwill mail a definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents to its shareholders as of the record date to be established for votingon the Potential Business Combination . Constellation’s shareholders and other interested persons are advised to read, once available,the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus and any amendments thereto, and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, in connection withConstellation’s solicitation of proxies for its extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to be held to approve, among otherthings, the Potential Business Combination, because these documents will contain important information about Constellation, Jindalee, the Company, NewCo and the Potential Business Combination . Shareholders may also obtain a copy of the preliminary or definitive proxystatement, once available, as well as other documents filed with the SEC regarding the Potential Business Combination and other documentsfiled with the SEC by Constellation and NewCo , without charge, at the SEC’s website located at www . sec . gov or by directinga request to Constellation Acquisition Corp I, 1290 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10104 .

INVESTOR PRESENTATION | 5 Australian| Non - U.S. Disclaimers These Presentation Materials have been prepared by the Contracting Parties to assist interested parties in makingtheir own evaluation with respect the “Potential Business Combination” . These Presentation Materials provide general backgroundinformation about the Contracting Parties’ activities . That information is current at the date of these Presentation Materialsand remains subject to change without notice . Certain information in these Presentation Materials has been derived from third partiesand though the Contracting Parties have no reason to believe that it is not accurate, reliable, or complete, it has not been independentlyaudited or verified by the Contracting Parties . Except to the extent required by law, the Contracting Parties make no representationor warranty as to the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of information in this document and do not take responsibility for updatingany information or correcting any errors or omissions which may become apparent after these Presentation Materials are released . ThesePresentation Materials are for information purposes only and is a summary and does not purport to be complete nor does it contain allthe information which would be required in, nor is it, a prospectus, product disclosure statement, or other disclosure document underAustralian law or any other law (and will not be lodged with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission or any foreign regulator)and is not, and does not constitute, an invitation or offer of securities for subscription, purchase, or sale in any jurisdiction . ThePre - Feasibility Study, including the production target and the forecast financial information derived from the production target, referredto in these Presentation Materials (PFS) was first released to the ASX by Jindalee (ASX : JLL) on 19 November 2024 (PFS Announcement). These Presentation Materials include summary excerpts from the PFS and do not purport to be all - inclusive or complete and shouldbe read together with the PFS Announcement . Jindalee confirms that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning theproduction target and the forecast financial information derived from the production target, in the PFS Announcement continue to applyand have not materially changed . Shareholders and prospective investors should be aware that the PFS and these Presentation Materialsdo not include any forecast financial information in respect of the period after the initial 40 years of the Processing Schedule (postsingle commission and ramp up year), as the Contracting Parties cannot, at this stage, provide forecast financial information for thatsubsequent period . These Presentation Materials contain certain forward - looking statements, including forecast financial information. Forward - looking statements include but are not limited to statements concerning the Contracting Parties’ current expectations,estimates, and projections about the industry in which Contracting Parties’ operate and beliefs and assumptions regarding the ContractingParties’ future performance . When used in this document, the words such as “anticipate,” “could,” “plan,”“estimate,” “expects,” “seeks,” “intends,” “may,” “potential,”“should,” and similar expressions are forward - looking statements . Although the Contracting Parties’ believe thatthat they has a reasonable basis for those forward looking statements and forecast financial information, including the use of a flatU . S . $ 24 , 000 /t lithium carbonate price in the PFS, the production target set out in these Presentation Materials and the financialinformation based on it, such statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which arebeyond the control of Contracting Parties’ and no assurance can be given that actual results will be consistent with these forward- looking statements . The basis for that conclusion is contained throughout the PFS Announcement and all material assumptions, includingthe JORC modifying factors, upon which the forward - looking statements and forecast financial information are based, are disclosed inthe PFS Announcement and these Presentation Materials should be read together with the PFS Announcement . To achieve the range of outcomesindicated in the PFS, the PFS estimates that funding in the order of $ 3 . 02 B in construction capital will be required . Shareholdersand investors should be aware that there is no certainty that Jindalee / US Elemental will be able to raise the required funding whenneeded and it is possible that such funding may only be available on terms that may be highly dilutive or otherwise adversely affectJindalee and US Elemental’s shareholders’ exposure to the McDermitt Lithium Project (the “Project”) economics. Specifically, as outlined in the PFS Announcement, Jindalee / US Elemental intends to pursue potential third - party partnerships (withparties who have the potential to be joint venture partners in the Project) to advance the Project and may pursue other value realizationstrategies such as a sale or partial sale of the Project or underlying future commodity streams . If it does so, such arrangements maymaterially reduce Jindalee / US Elemental’s proportionate ownership of the Project and/ or adversely affect Jindalee and US Elementalshareholders’ exposure to the Project economics . Statements in these Presentation Materials regarding the Company’s business,which are not historical facts, are forward - looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties . These include, among others,risks and uncertainties related to Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates, production targets, forecast financial information, lithiumcarbonate prices, capital and operating costs, risks related to results of current or planned exploration activities, changes in marketconditions, obtaining appropriate approvals to undertake exploration activities in the portfolio of projects, changes in explorationprograms and budgets based upon the results of exploration, future prices of minerals resources ; grade or recovery rates ; accidents,labour disputes, and other risks of the mining industry ; delays in obtaining government approvals or financing or in the completionof development or construction activities ; movements in the share price of investments and the timing and proceeds realized on futuredisposals of investments, force majeure events, as well as those factors detailed in the PFS Announcement or, from time to time, in Jindalee’sinterim and annual financial statements and reports, all of which are available for review on ASX at asx . com . au and OTC Markets atotcmarkets . com . Although the Contracting Parties have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, eventsor results to differ materially from those described in forward - looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results andfuture events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements . Accordingly, readers should not place undue relianceon forward - looking statements . To the extent permitted by law, the Contracting Parties and their officers, employees, related bodiescorporate and agents disclaim all liability, direct, indirect or consequential (and whether or not arising out of the negligence, default,or lack of care of the Contracting Parties and/or any of their agents) for any loss or damage suffered by a recipient or other personsout of, or in connection with, any use or reliance on these Presentation Materials or information .

(the “Company”) and their consolidated entities prior to the PotentialBusiness Combination, and for periods following the closing of the Potential Business Combination refer to NewCo as the combined companyand its subsidiaries. The risks presented below are non - exhaustive descriptions of certain of the general risks related to the businessof the Company, Constellation and NewCo and the Potential Business Combination, and such list is not exhaustive. The list below has beenprepared solely for purposes of inclusion in these Presentation Materials and not for any other purpose. You should carefully considerthese risks and uncertainties and should carry out your own diligence and consult with your own financial and legal advisors concerningthe risks presented by an investment in the Company and the Potential Business Combination. Risks relating to the business of Constellation,Jindalee , the Company, the Potential Business Combination and the business of NewCo will be disclosed in future documents filed or furnishedby Constellation or NewCo with the SEC, including the documents filed or furnished in connection with the Potential Business Combination.The risks presented in such filings will be consistent with SEC filings typically relating to a public company, including wit h respectto the business and securities of Jindalee , the Company, Constellation and NewCo and the Potential Business Combination, and may differsignificantly from, and be more extensive than, those presented below. Risks Related to Our Business and Our Industry • Our businessoperates in the mining exploration and development industry. Our project is at the development stage, and there are no guarantees thatdevelopment of the project into a mine will occur or that such development will result in the commercial extraction of mineral deposits.In addition, even if an economic mineral deposit is mined, we may not realize profits from our development activities in the short, mediumor long term. • The economic viability of our project and its development remains subject to various factors, including, in thenear term, the delivery of a definitive feasibility study which supports the project economics. To date, we have received a positivepreliminary feasibility study, which has a lower level of confidence than a definitive feasibility study, but which has resulted in thedefinitive feasibility study being commissioned in respect of the project. The information presented in in these Presentation Materialsis based solely on the preliminary feasibility study. • There can be no assurance that we will deliver a definitive feasibilitystudy that supports the economic viability of the project moving forward or that the assumptions used in the definitive feasibility studyto underpin the viability of the project (including, but not limited to, the prices of lithium carbonate) will remain true and correctin the future. • Our future performance is difficult to evaluate because we have a limited operating history in the mining, energyand resources sector, including in the battery metals industry. • Our long - term success will depend ultimately on implementingour business strategy and operational plan, as well as our ability to generate revenue, achieve and maintain profitability and developpositive cash flows from our mining activities. • Our business strategy is to develop the McDermitt Project to produce lithiumdomestically. Consequently, our growth depends upon the continued growth in lithium demand and in lithium - ion batteries. • Thedevelopment and adoption of new battery technologies that rely on inputs other than lithium compounds could significantly impact ourprospects and future revenues. • Our long - term success depends, in part, on our ability to negotiate and enter into sales agreementswith, and deliver our product to, third party customers on commercially viable terms. There can be no assurance that we will be successfulin securing such agreements. • Exchange rate fluctuations may materially affect our results of operations and financial condition.• We may seek to raise further funds through equity or debt financing, joint ventures, production sharing arrangements or othermeans. Consequently, we depend on our ability to successfully access the capital and financial markets. Any inability to access the capitalor financial markets may limit our ability to fund our ongoing operations, execute our business plan or pursue investments that we mayrely on for future growth. • Changes in technology or other developments could adversely affect demand for lithium compounds orresult in preferences for substitute products. • Our possible future revenues will be mainly derived from the sale of lithium andmagnesium products. Consequently, our success largely depends on the market price of lithium remaining higher than our costs of any futureproduction (assuming successful exploration and development of the project). • When compared to many industrial and commercialoperations, mining exploration and development projects are high risk and subject to uncertainties. Each mineral resource is unique andthe nature of the mineralization, and the occurrence and grade of the lithium, as well as its behavior during mining, can never be whollypredicted. Our mineral resource estimates may be materially different from mineral quantities we may ultimately recover, our life - of- mine estimates may prove inaccurate and market price fluctuations and changes in operating and capital costs may render mineral resourcesuneconomic to mine. • The industry in which we operate is subject to domestic and global competition. We have no influence or controlover the activities or actions of our competitors, which activities or actions may negatively affect the operating and financial performanceof our projects and business. • If we fail to retain our key personnel or if we fail to attract additional qualified personnel,we may not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth and our business could suffer. • Any failure by management to managegrowth properly could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. • Land reclamationand mine closure may be burdensome and costly. • Our success depends on developing and maintaining relationships with local communitiesand stakeholders. • We are exposed to general economic conditions and the fluctuations of interest and inflation rates may havean adverse effect on our business. • Our business may be adversely affected by force majeure events outside our control, includinglabor unrest, civil disorder, war, subversive activities or sabotage, extreme weather conditions, fires, floods, explosions or othercatastrophes, epidemics or quarantine restrictions. Note: All amounts are in U.S.$ unless stated otherwise.

INVESTOR PRESENTATION | 34 Risk FactorsRisks Related to Legal, Compliance and Regulations • If we receive federal monies, we could become subject to additional federalregulations. This could delay timing and increase costs. • We will be required to obtain governmental permits and approvals toconduct development and mining operations, a process which is often costly and time - consuming. There is no certainty that all necessarypermits and approvals for our planned operations will be granted. • Our failure to comply with applicable anti - corruption, anti- bribery, anti - money laundering and similar laws and regulations could negatively impact our reputation and results of operations.• Our operations are subject to environmental, health and safety regulations, which could impose additional costs and compliancerequirements, and we may face claims and liability for breaches, or alleged breaches, of such regulations and other applicable laws.• The impacts of climate change may adversely affect our operations and/or result in increased costs to comply with changes inregulations. • We face opposition from organizations that oppose mining which may disrupt or delay our mining projects. •The requirements of being a public company in the U.S. may strain our resources and divert management’s attention, and the increasesin legal, accounting and compliance expenses that will result from being a public company in the U.S. may be greater than we anticipate.• Our business could be adversely affected by trade tariffs or other trade barriers. • We are exposed to possible litigationrisks, including mining permit disputes (including in respect of access and/or validity of tenure), environmental claims, occupationalhealth and safety claims and employee claims. Further, we may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future that may resultin litigation. Current or future litigation or administrative proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our business, financialcondition and results of operations. Risks Related to Operations • The development of mining operations at the McDermitt Projectis dependent on a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. If we commence production at the project, our operations maybe disrupted by a variety of risks and hazards that could have a material adverse effect on our future operating costs, financial conditionand ability to develop and operate a mine. • The occurrence of significant events against which the Company may not be fully insuredcould have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. • The threat of global economic,capital markets and credit disruptions pose risks to our business. Risks Related to Intellectual Property and Technology • Ourfailure to protect our intellectual property rights may undermine our competitive position, and litigation to protect our intellectualproperty rights may be costly. • We may need to defend ourselves against claims that we infringe, have misappropriated, or otherwiseviolate the intellectual property rights of others, which may be time - consuming and would cause us to incur substantial costs. •Any unauthorized access to, disclosure, or theft of personal information we gather, store, or use could harm our reputation and subjectus to claims or litigation. • A failure of our information technology and data security infrastructure could adversely affect ourbusiness and operations. Risks Related to Future Performance and Resource Estimates • Actual capital costs, operating costs, productionand economic returns may differ significantly from those we have anticipated and future development activities may not result in profitablemining operations. • Mining projects such as ours have no operating history on which to base estimates of future operating costsand capital requirements. Before operations commence, any projections we may produce are based upon estimates and assumptions made atthe time they were prepared. If these estimates or assumptions prove to be incorrect or inaccurate, our actual operating results maydiffer materially from our forecasted results. • Our resource estimates may change significantly when new information or techniquesbecome available. In addition, by their very nature, resource estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations, whichmay prove to be inaccurate. As further information becomes available through additional fieldwork and analysis, our estimates, if any,are likely to change and these changes may result in a reduction in our resources. These changes may also result in alterations to ourdevelopment and mining plans, which may, in turn, adversely affect our operations. Risk Related to Land Access • The Company maybe required to negotiate access arrangements and pay compensation to land owners, local authorities, traditional land users and otherswho may have an interest in the area covered by tenure. The Company’s ability to resolve access and compensation issues may havea negative impact on the future success and financial performance of the Company’s operations. Risk Related to Tenures •In relation to tenures which the Company has an interest in or will in the future acquire, there may be areas of indigenous owned land.Where such rights exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to such tenures (through obtaining consent of any relevant landowner),or to progress such tenures from the exploration phase to the development and mining phases of operations may be adversely affected.Risk Related to Sediment - Hosted Lithium Deposit • The McDermitt Lithium Project is a sediment - hosted lithium deposit and theCompany is not aware of any commercially operating lithium sediment presently anywhere in the world. Jindalee has completed a comprehensivemetallurgical testwork program as part of the McDermitt Lithium Project Pre - Feasibility Study in November 2024, encompassing all majorprocessing stages from beneficiation through to the production of battery - grade lithium carbonate. While the results of this work providean increased level of confidence in the technical viability of the proposed flowsheet, further optimisation and pilot - scale testingwill be required to finalise process design parameters and confirm the scalability of the flowsheet to commercial production. There remainsno assurance that lithium production can ultimately be achieved on an economically viable basis or at all. Note: All amounts are in U.S.$unless stated otherwise.
