Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements included in this Presentation are forward-looking statements. All statements other
than statements of historical fact contained in this Presentation, including statements as to future
results of operations and financial position, planned products and services, business strategy and plans,
objectives of management for future operations of the Company, market size and growth
opportunities, competitive position and technological and market trends, are forward-looking
statements. Some of these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking
words, including “anticipate,” “expect,” “suggests,” “plan,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimates,” “targets,”
“projects,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “may,” “will,” “forecast” or other similar expressions. All
forward-looking statements are based upon current estimates and forecasts and reflect the views,
assumptions, expectations, and opinions of SPAC and the Company as of the date of this Presentation,
and are therefore subject to a number of factors, risks and uncertainties, some of which are not
currently known to SPAC or the Company. Some of these factors include, but are not limited to: the
company’s success in the highly competitive automotive market, the Company’s reliance on Geely
Holding, the Company’s ability to maintain the “Lotus” brand, the Company’s limited number of
orders, the Company’s limited number of models, the Company’s dependency on consumers’ demand
and willingness for electronic vehicles and passenger vehicles, unforeseen changes of the Company’s
industry and technology, the Company’s dependency of suppliers, cost increases or disruptions of raw
materials and other components , and the global shortage in the supply of semiconductor chips. The
foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties
described in the “Risk Factors” section of this Presentation and the “Risk Factors” section of the proxy
statement/prospectus on Form F-4 relating to the Transaction filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and other documents filed from time to time with the SEC. These filings
identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results
to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In light of these factors,
risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this Presentation
may not occur, and any estimates, assumptions, expectations, forecasts, views or opinions set forth in
this Presentation should be regarded as preliminary and for illustrative purposes only and accordingly,
undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. SPAC and the Company
assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.
Moreover, the Company operates in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, and new
risks may emerge from time to time. It is not possible to predict all risks, nor assess the impact of all
factors on the Company’s business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may
cause the Company’s actual results, performance or financial condition to be materially different from
the expected future results, performance of financial condition. In addition, the analyses of SPAC and
the Company contained herein are not, and do not purport to be, appraisals of the securities, assets or
business of the Company, SPAC or any other entity. There may be additional risks that neither SPAC
nor the Company presently knows or that SPAC and the Company currently believe are immaterial that
could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s or SPAC’s
assessment as of any date subsequent to the date of this Presentation. More generally, SPAC and the
Company caution you against relying on these forward-looking statements, and SPAC and the Company
qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.
