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 us. Some of these factors include, but are not limited to: the success of new product or service offerings of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Group"), the Group's ability to attract new and retain existing customers, competitive pressures in the industry in which the Group operates, the Group's ability to achieve profitability despite a history of losses, the Group's ability to implement its growth strategies and manage its growth, the Group's ability to meet consumer expectations, the Group's ability to produce accurate forecasts of its operating and financial results, the Group's internal This Precontrols , fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the Group's ability to raise additional capital, media coverage of the Group, changes in the regulatory environments of the countries in which the Group operates or to which the Group is subject, general economic conditions in the countries in which the Group operates, the Group's ability to attract and retain senior management and skilled employees, the success of the Group's strategic alliances and acquisitions, changes in the Group's relationship with its current customers, suppliers and service providers, disruptions to information technology systems and networks, the Group's ability to protect its brand and the Group's reputation, the Group's ability to protect its intellectual property, potential and future litigation that the Group may be involved in, taxes or other liabilities that may be incurred or required subsequent to, or in connection with, the consummation of the Transaction. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward - looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. 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 should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results. 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. 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. 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, we caution you against relying on these forward - looking statements, and we qualify all of our forward - looking statements by these cautionary statements. Industry and Market Data This Presentation also contains information, estimates and other statistical data derived from third party sources (including Frost & Sullivan). Such information involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and due to the nature of the techniques and methodologies used in market research, Frost & Sullivan cannot guarantee the accuracy of such information. You are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. Neither SPAC nor the Company has independently verified such third party information, and makes no representation, express or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, reliability or availability of, such third party information. SPAC and the Company may have supplemented such information where necessary, taking into account publicly available information about other industry participants. Use of Projections and Historical Financial Information The 2021 historical financial data included in this Presentation has been derived from the Company's 2021 financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and are subject to updates based on an ongoing external audit in accordance with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") standards. In addition, the Company's financial data for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included in this Presentation is based on financial data derived from the Company's management accounts that have not been reviewed or audited and are subject to further review and updates. 3

ECARX shall reserve th e r ight to take legal action against such violations. | www.ecarxgroup.com Disclaimer This Presentation contains financial forecasts for the Company with respect to certain of its financial results for the fiscal years 202 2 through 2024 for illustrative purposes. Neither SPAC's nor the Company's independent auditors have audited, studied, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the projections for the purpose of their inclusion in this Presentation, and accordingly, they did not express any opinion or provide any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this Presentation. These projections are forward - looking statements and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results. In this Presentation, certain of the above - mentioned projected information has been provided for purposes of providing comparisons with historical data. The assumptions and estimates underlying the prospective financial 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 prospective financial information. While such information and projections are necessarily speculative, SPAC and the Company believe that the preparation of prospective financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection extends from the date of preparation. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the prospective results are indicative of the future performance of the Company or that actual results will not differ materially from those presented in the prospective financial information. The inclusion of prospective financial information in this Presentation should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results contained in the prospective financial information will be achieved. All subsequent written and oral forward - looking statements concerning the Company or SPAC, the Transaction or other matters and attributable to the Company or SPAC or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above. Non - GAAP Financial Measures This Presentation also includes references to non - GAAP financial measures such as adjusted EBITDA. Such non - GAAP measures should be considered only as supplemental to, and not as superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. SPAC and the Company believe these non - GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations. SPAC and the Company believe that the use of these non - GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends in and in comparing the Company's financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non - GAAP financial measures to investors. Management does not consider these non - GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. These non - GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non - GAAP financial measures. Additionally, to the extent that forward - looking non - GAAP financial measures are provided, they are presented on a non - GAAP basis without reconciliations of such forward - looking non - GAAP measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Additional Information In connection with the Transaction, the Company has filed a proxy statement/prospectus on Form F - 4. You are urged to read the proxy statement/prospectus and any other relevant documents filed with the SEC when they become available because, among other things, they will contain updates to the financial, industry and other information herein as well as important information about SPAC, the Company and the Transaction. Shareholders of SPAC will be able to obtain a free copy of the proxy statement (when filed), as well as other filings containing information about SPAC, the Company and the Transaction, without charge, at the SEC's website located at www.sec.gov. Participants in the Solicitation SPAC and the Company, and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from SPAC's shareholders in connection with the Transaction. A list of the names of such directors and executive officers and information regarding their interests in the Transaction is contained in the proxy statement. You may obtain free copies of these documents as described in the preceding paragraph. The definitive proxy statement will be mailed to shareholders of SPAC as of a record date to be established for voting on the Transaction when it becomes available.

The automotive intelligence industry is highly competitive, and ECARX may not be successful in competing in this industry. 7. ECARX had negative net cash flows from operations in the past and has not been profitable, which may continue in the future. 8. ECARX currently has a concentrated customer base with a limited number of key customers, particularly Geely Holding and its related parties.

ECARX is subject to risks and uncertainties associated with international operations, which may harm its business. 10.

ECARX relies on its business partners and other industry participants. Business collaboration with partners is subject to risks, and these relationships may not lead to significant revenue. Any adverse change in ECARX 's cooperation with its business partners could harm its business. 12. ECARX's business plans require a significant amount of capital. In addition, ECARX's future capital needs may require it to sell additional equity or debt securities that may dilute its shareholders or introduce covenants that may restrict its operations or its ability to pay dividends. 13. The COVID - 19 pandemic continues to impact ECARX's business and could materially and adversely affect its financial condition and results of operations. 14. ECARX is subject to risks relating to its restructuring. 15. ECARX may not be able to realize the potential financial or strategic benefits of business ventures, acquisitions or strategic investments or successfully integrate acquisition targets, which could harm its ability to grow its business, develop new products or sell its existing products. 16. ECARX may incur material losses and costs as a result of warranty claims, product recalls, and product liability that may be brought against it. 17. ECARX has limited insurance coverage, which could expose it to significant costs and business disruption. 18. ECARX's business depends substantially on the continued efforts of its executive officers, key employees and qualified personnel, and its operations may be severely disrupted if ECARX loses their services. 19. ECARX's management team has limited experience managing a public company. 20. ECARX may not succeed in continuing to establish, maintain, or strengthen its brand, and the brand and reputation of ECARX could be harmed by negative publicity with respect to itself, its directors, officers, employees, shareholders, peers, business partners, or the industry in general. 21. ECARX's revenues and financial results may be adversely affected by any economic slowdown in China as well as globally. 22. Heightened tensions in international relations, particularly between the United States and China, may adversely impact ECARX's business, financial condition, and results of operations 23. Natural disasters, terrorist activities, political unrest, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, rising inflation, and other global pandemic outbreaks could disrupt ECARX's production, delivery, and operations, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition, and results of operations. 24. If ECARX fails to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls, it may be unable to accurately report its results of operations, meet its reporting obligations or prevent fraud, which may have material and adverse effect to investor confidence and the market price of its shares. 25. ECARX depends on information technology to conduct its business. Any significant disruptions to its information technology systems or facilities, or to those of third parties with which it does business, such as disruptions caused by cyber - attacks, could adversely impact ECARX's business. 26.

All copyrights shall belong to ECARX. No person shall copy or distribute any or all part of the content in any way. ECARX shall reserve th e r ight to take legal action against such violations. | www.ecarxgroup.com Risk Factors Risks Relating to Intellectual Property 1. ECARX may need to defend itself against intellectual property right infringement claims, which may be time - consuming and would cause ECARX to incur substantial costs. 2. ECARX may not be able to prevent others from unauthorized use of its intellectual property, which could harm its business and competitive position. 3. As ECARX's patents may expire and may not be extended, ECARX's patent applications may not be granted, and ECARX's patent rights may be contested, circumvented, invalidated, or limited in scope, ECARX may not be effectively protected by its patent rights. In particular, ECARX may not be able to prevent others from developing or exploiting competing technologies, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition, and results of operations. 4. In addition to patented technologies, ECARX relies on its unpatented proprietary technologies, trade secrets, processes, and know - how. Risks Relating to Regulation and Doing Business in China 1. The PRC government has significant oversight and discretion over ECARX's business operations, and it may influence or intervene in ECARX's operations as part of its efforts to enforce PRC law, which could result in a material adverse change in ECARX's operations and the value of ECARX's securities. 2. Uncertainties in the PRC legal system and the interpretation and enforcement of PRC laws and regulations could limit the legal protections available to you and to ECARX, hinder ECARX's ability and the ability of any holder of its securities to offer or continue to offer such securities, result in a material adverse change to ECARX's business operations, and damage ECARX's reputation, which would materially and adversely affect ECARX's financial condition and results of operations and cause ECARX's securities to significantly decline in value or become worthless. 3. The approval of and filing with the CSRC or other PRC government authorities may be required in connection with this offering under PRC law, and, if so required, ECARX cannot predict whether or when it will be able to obtain such approval or complete such filing, and even if it obtains such approval, it could be rescinded. Any failure to or delay in obtaining such approval or complying with such filing requirements in relation to this offering, or a rescission of such approval, could subject ECARX to sanctions imposed by the CSRC or other PRC government authorities. 4. The PCAOB is currently unable to inspect ECARX's auditor in relation to their audit work performed for ECARX's financial statements and the inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections over ECARX's auditor deprives ECARX's investors with the benefits of such inspections. 5. Assuming the business combination is consummated in 2022, ECARX's securities may be prohibited from trading in the United States under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the HFCAA, in 2025 if the PCAOB is unable to inspect or fully investigate auditors located in China, or as early as 2024 if proposed changes to the law are enacted. The delisting of ECARX's securities, or the threat of their being delisted, may materially and adversely affect the value of your investment. 6. ECARX's business is subject to complex and evolving laws and regulations regarding cybersecurity, privacy, data protection and information security in China and elsewhere. Any privacy or data security breach or any failure to comply with these laws and regulations could damage its reputation and brand, result in negative publicity, legal proceedings, increased cost of operations, warnings, fines, service or business suspension, or otherwise harm its business and results of operations. 7. ECARX may be subject to anti - corruption, anti - bribery, anti - money laundering, financial and economic sanctions, and similar laws, and noncompliance with such laws can subject ECARX to administrative, civil, and criminal penalties, collateral consequences, remedial measures, and legal expenses, all of which could adversely affect its business, results of operations, financial condition, and reputation. 8. It may be difficult for overseas regulators to conduct investigations or collect evidence within China. 9. Fluctuations in exchange rates could have a material and adverse effect on ECARX's results of operations. 10. Governmental control of currency conversion may limit ECARX's ability to utilize its revenues effectively. 11.
