Ladies and Gentlemen:

Westport Fuel Systems Inc., an Alberta corporation (the “Company”), proposes, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, to issue and sell to the several underwriters named on Schedule I to this Agreement (the “Underwriters”), for whom you (the “Representatives”) are acting as representatives, an aggregate of 18,200,000 common shares (the “Firm Shares”) in the capital of the Company (the “Common Shares”). The respective amounts of the Firm Shares to be purchased by each of the several Underwriters are set forth opposite their names on Schedule I hereto. In addition, the Company proposes to grant to the Underwriters an option to purchase up to an additional 2,730,000 Common Shares (the “Option Shares”) from the Company for the purpose of covering over-allotments in connection with the sale of the Firm Shares. The Firm Shares and the Option Shares are collectively called the “Shares”.

The Company has prepared and filed with the securities regulatory authorities (the “Canadian Commissions”) in each of the provinces of Canada other than Québec (the “Qualifying Jurisdictions”), as well as in the province of Québec, in accordance with Multilateral Instrument 11-102 Passport System (“MI 11-102”) and National Policy 11-202 Process for Prospectus Reviews in Multiple Jurisdictions, a preliminary short form base shelf prospectus dated March 4, 2021 (the “Canadian Preliminary Base Prospectus”) and a final short form base shelf prospectus dated March 16, 2021 (the “Canadian Final Base Prospectus”), in respect of up to $400,000,000 aggregate initial offering price of common shares, preferred shares, subscription receipts, warrants, debt securities or units of the Company (collectively, the “Shelf Securities”). The British Columbia Securities Commission (the “Principal Regulator”) has issued a receipt for each of the Canadian Preliminary Base Prospectus and the Canadian Final Base Prospectus, which receipts evidence that receipts have been issued by the Ontario Securities Commission and that the Company has satisfied the conditions in MI 11-102 for the deemed issuance of a receipt by the Canadian Commissions for each of the Canadian Preliminary Base Prospectus and the Canadian Final Base Prospectus in each of the other provinces of Canada. The term “Canadian Base Prospectus” means the Canadian Final Base Prospectus, including any documents incorporated therein by reference and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof or included therein pursuant to Canadian Securities Laws (as hereinafter defined), at the time the Principal Regulator issued a receipt with respect thereto in accordance with Canadian Securities Laws, including National Instrument 44-101 Short Form Prospectus Distributions and National Instrument 44-102 Shelf Distributions (together, the “Canadian Shelf Procedures”). The Company has also prepared and filed with the Canadian Commissions in the Qualifying Jurisdictions, in accordance with the Canadian Shelf Procedures, a preliminary prospectus supplement, dated June 1, 2021 (the “Canadian Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”), relating to the distribution of the Shares, which excluded certain pricing information and other information specific to the offering and sale of the Shares the Company is permitted to exclude from such Canadian Preliminary Prospectus Supplement under the Canadian Shelf Procedures (the “Shelf Information”) (the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus Supplement together with the Canadian Base Prospectus, and unless the context otherwise requires, including any documents incorporated therein by reference and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof or included therein for the purposes of the distribution of the Shares pursuant to Canadian Securities Laws, the “Canadian Preliminary Prospectus”).

The Company has filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form F-10 (File No. 333-253892), including a base prospectus, relating to the Shelf Securities, including the Shares. The registration statement as amended at the time it became effective, including the information (if any) deemed to be part of the registration statement at the time of effectiveness under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including the Canadian Base Prospectus with such deletions therefrom and additions thereto as are permitted or required by Form F-10 and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and including exhibits to such registration statement and all documents incorporated by reference in the prospectus contained therein, and including any amendments thereto filed prior to the date hereof, each in the form heretofore delivered or to be delivered to the Representatives (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Registration Statement”), has become effective in such form pursuant to Rule 467(a) under the Securities Act. The preliminary base prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, contained in the Registration Statement as initially filed with the Commission, is hereinafter called the “U.S. Preliminary Base Prospectus”; the base prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, contained in the Registration Statement on the date hereof, is hereinafter called the “U.S. Base Prospectus”; the preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the offering of the Shares, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, filed with the Commission pursuant to General Instruction II.L of Form F-10 under the Securities Act on June 1, 2021 together with the U.S. Base Prospectus, is hereinafter called the “U.S. Preliminary Prospectus”.

In addition, the Company will prepare and file, as soon as possible and in any event within two business days after the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement (i) with the Canadian Commissions in the Qualifying Jurisdictions a final prospectus supplement (the “Canadian Final Prospectus Supplement”) relating to the distribution of the Shares, which includes the Shelf Information omitted from the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus Supplement (the Canadian Final Prospectus Supplement together with the Canadian Base Prospectus, and including any documents incorporated therein by reference and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof or included therein pursuant to Canadian Securities Laws (as defined herein), the “Canadian Final Prospectus”), and (ii) with the Commission, pursuant to General Instruction II.L of Form F-10, a final prospectus supplement relating to the distribution of the Shares (including all documents incorporated therein by reference, together with the U.S. Base Prospectus, the “U.S. Final Prospectus”).

The U.S. Preliminary Prospectus and the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus are referred to herein as the “Preliminary Prospectus”, and the U.S. Final Prospectus and the Canadian Final Prospectus are referred to herein as the “Final Prospectus”. Any amendment to the Canadian Final Prospectus, any amended or supplemental prospectus, any management information circular, financial statement, management’s discussion and analysis, annual information form, material change report or business acquisition report that may be filed by or on behalf of the Company under the securities laws of the Qualifying Jurisdictions prior to the expiry of the period of distribution of the Shares, where such document is deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Canadian Final Prospectus, is referred to herein collectively as the “Supplementary Material”. Any reference herein to any “amendment” or “supplement” to the U.S. Preliminary Prospectus or the U.S. Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include (i) the filing of any document with the Principal Regulator or the Commission after the date of the U.S. Preliminary Prospectus or the U.S. Final Prospectus, as the case may be, which is incorporated therein by reference or is otherwise deemed to be a part thereof or included therein by the rules and regulations of the Commission and (ii) any such document so filed.

The Company understands that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of the Shares, as set forth in and pursuant to the Statutory Prospectus (as hereinafter defined) and the Final Prospectus. The Company hereby confirms that the Underwriters and dealers have been authorized to distribute or cause to be distributed each Preliminary Prospectus, and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (as hereinafter defined) and are authorized to distribute the Final Prospectus (as from time to time amended or supplemented if the Company furnishes amendments or supplements thereto to the Underwriters).

1. Sale, Purchase, Delivery and Payment for the Shares. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements contained in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement:

(a) The Company agrees to issue and sell to each of the Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at a purchase price of $5.50 per share (the “Purchase Price”), the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter on Schedule I to this Agreement, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 7 hereof. The Company is advised by the Representatives that the Underwriters shall offer the Firm Shares to the public at the initial offering price of $5.50 (the “Public Offering Price”). The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters may offer the Firm Shares for sale to the public at a price less than the Public Offering Price after the Underwriters have made reasonable efforts to sell the Firm Shares at the Public Offering Price (which, for greater certainty, will not affect the Purchase Price payable to the Company pursuant to this Section 1(a)).

(b) The Company hereby grants to the several Underwriters an option to purchase, severally and not jointly (nor jointly and severally), all or any part of the Option Shares at the Purchase Price provided, however, that the amount paid by the Underwriters for any Option Shares shall be reduced by an amount per share equal to any dividends declared by the Company and payable on the Firm Shares but not payable on such Option Shares. The number of Option Shares to be purchased by each Underwriter shall be the same percentage (adjusted by the Representatives to eliminate fractions) of the total number of Option Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters as such Underwriter is purchasing of the Firm Shares. Such option may be exercised only to cover over-allotments in the sales of the Firm Shares by the Underwriters and may be exercised at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, commencing on the Firm Shares Closing Date (as defined below), and ending on the date that is 30 days after the Firm Shares Closing Date, in each case upon written, facsimile or e-mail notice, or verbal or telephonic notice confirmed by written, facsimile or e-mail notice, by the Representatives to the Company, as the case may be, setting forth the number of Option Shares to be purchased and the time and date (if other than the Firm Shares Closing Date) of such purchase.

(c) In consideration of the agreement on the part of the Underwriters to purchase the Shares and to offer them to the public pursuant to the Final Prospectus, the Underwriters shall be entitled to receive from the Company at the time of closing on the Firm Shares Closing Date or the Option Shares Closing Date (each such terms as defined herein), as applicable, a fee equal to 5.5% (exclusive of federal goods and services tax, harmonized sales tax and provincial sales tax, if applicable) of the gross proceeds to the Company from the Shares purchased on the Firm Shares Closing Date or the Option Shares Closing Date, as applicable (the “Underwriters’ Fee”). No Underwriters’ Fee shall be paid by the Company in respect of gross proceeds from the offering of Shares (up to a maximum of $2 million) to the current directors, officers or employees of the Company or to Xxxxx Xxxxxxx or any affiliate thereof. RBC Dominion Securities Inc. will be entitled to a syndicate position of no less than 40%, with a 75% allocation of a work fee (the “Work Fee”) and X.X. Xxxxxx Securities Canada Inc. will be entitled to a syndicate position of no less than 35%, with a 25% allocation of the Work Fee. The Work Fee shall be equal to 6.0% of the Underwriters’ Fee and shall be paid out of the Underwriters’ Fee in consideration of the services provided in assisting the Company in structuring the terms of the offering of the Shares prior to the payment by the Company of the remaining portion of the Underwriters’ Fee to the Underwriters. The Representatives will be entitled to appoint a selling group as appropriate to further broaden distribution of the Shares.

(d) Payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of the Firm Shares, in electronic or certificated form, shall be made immediately at the offices of RBC Dominion Securities Inc., 4th Floor – 000 Xxx Xx., Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx, X0X 0X0, at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time), on the fourth business day following the date of this Agreement or at such time on such other date, not later than ten business days after the date of this Agreement, as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Representatives (such time and date of delivery and payment are called the “Firm Shares Closing Date”). In addition, in the event that any or all of the Option Shares are purchased by the Underwriters, payment of the purchase price, and delivery of the Option Shares, in electronic or certificated form, shall be made at the above-mentioned offices, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company, on each date of delivery as specified in the notice from the Representatives to the Company (such time and date of delivery and payment are called the “Option Shares Closing Date”). The Firm Shares Closing Date and any Option Shares Closing Date are called, individually, a “Closing Date” and, together, the “Closing Dates”.

(e) Payment shall be made to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available funds against delivery of the Shares for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters.

(f) To the extent any Shares are sold to and purchased by any director or officer of the Company (or any affiliate thereof) that is ordinarily resident outside of Canada and the United States, the Company shall act as settlement agent for and on behalf of the Underwriters in respect of such sales and will, in such capacity, cause such Shares to be registered on the books of the Company’s transfer agent in the name of such director or officer or as otherwise directed by such director or officer on the Firm Shares Closing Date (or the Option Shares Closing Date in the case of the Option Shares), and will otherwise take such steps as are reasonably necessary to deliver such Shares to any such director or officer.

(g) Except as provided for in Section 1(f) above, all Shares shall be registered electronically through the non-certificated inventory system of CDS Clearing and Depositary Services Inc. and the Depository Trust Company, as applicable, or if not possible, by means of a certificate or certificates (the “Delivery Mode”) registered in such names and in such denominations as the Representatives shall request at least one full business days before the Firm Shares Closing Date or, in the case of Option Shares, on the day of notice of exercise of the option as described in Section 1(b) and shall be delivered by or on behalf of the Company to the Representatives for the account of such Underwriter. Except as provided for in Section 1(f) above, the Company will cause the delivery of the Shares through the Delivery Mode, on the Firm Shares Closing Date (or the Option Shares Closing Date in the case of the Option Shares).

2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to and agrees with each of the Underwriters and acknowledges that each of the Underwriters is relying upon such representations and warranties in connection its execution and delivery of this Agreement as of the date hereof, as of the Firm Shares Closing Date and as of each Option Shares Closing Date (if any), as follows:

(a) The Company is qualified in accordance with the provisions of NI 44-101 and NI 44-102 to file a short form base shelf prospectus in each of the Qualifying Jurisdictions and the entering into of this Agreement will not cause the final receipts for the Canadian Base Prospectus to no longer be effective. At the time of filing of the Registration Statement, the Company met, and as of the date hereof the Company meets, the general eligibility requirements for use of Form F-10 under the U.S. Securities Act. Any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, the Statutory Prospectus or the Final Prospectus required by this Agreement will be so prepared and filed by the Company and, as applicable, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause it to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued, and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened by the Commission. No order preventing or suspending the use of the Canadian Base Prospectus, U.S. Base Prospectus, the Canadian Preliminary Prospectus; the Canadian Final Prospectus, the U.S. Preliminary Prospectus, the U.S. Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus has been issued by the Commission or any Canadian Commission. The Canadian Preliminary Prospectus complied and the Canadian Final Prospectus, at the time of filing thereof with the Canadian Commissions, complied in all material respects and, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, will comply in all material respects with all applicable securities laws in the Qualifying Jurisdictions and the rules and regulations made thereunder together with applicable published national, multinational uniform, national and local instruments, policy statements, notices, blanket rulings, orders of the Canadian Commissions and all discretionary rulings and orders applicable to the Company, if any, of the Canadian Commissions (collectively, “Canadian Securities Laws”). The Canadian Final Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, as of its date, did not and, as of the applicable Closing Date, will not contain a misrepresentation, as defined under Canadian Securities Laws. The Canadian Final Prospectus and the U.S. Final Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, as of its date, did and, as of the applicable Closing Date, will contain full, true and plain disclosure of all material facts relating to the Shares and to the Company as required by Canadian Securities Laws and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. The representations and warranties set forth in the two immediately preceding sentences do not apply to statements in or omissions from the Canadian Final Prospectus and/or the U.S. Final Prospectus, as applicable, or any amendments or supplements thereto, made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to the Underwriters furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriters expressly for use therein (the “Underwriter Information”). The U.S. Final Prospectus, at the time first filed in accordance with General Instruction II.L. of Form F- 10, conformed in all material respects and, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, will conform in all material respects to the Canadian Final Prospectus, except for such deletions therefrom and additions thereto as are permitted or required by Form F-10, the Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission. The Company has delivered to the Underwriters one complete copy of each of the Canadian Final Base Prospectus and the Registration Statement and a copy of each consent of experts filed as a part thereof, and conformed copies of the Canadian Final Base Prospectus and the Registration Statement (without exhibits) and the Statutory Prospectus and the Final Prospectus, as may be amended or supplemented, in such quantities and at such places as the Underwriters have reasonably requested.

To its knowledge, the Company is not a “related issuer” or “connected issuer” (as those terms are defined in National Instrument 33-105 Underwriting Conflicts of the Canadian Securities Administrators) of any of the Underwriters.

(b) As of the Applicable Time (as hereinafter defined), no individual Issuer Free Writing Prospectus when considered together with the Statutory Prospectus included, includes or will include any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that this representation and warranty shall not apply to statements in or omissions in the Statutory Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.

(c) Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (as hereinafter defined), including any electronic road show (including without limitation any “bona fide electronic road show” as defined in Rule 433(h)(5) under the Securities Act) (each, a “Road Show”) (i) is identified in Schedule III hereto and (ii) complied when issued, and complies, in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the published rules and regulations thereunder (the “Rules”) and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. The Company has made at least one version of the Road Show available without restriction by means of graphic communication to any person, including any potential investor in the Shares (and if there is more than one version of a Road Show used in connection with the offering of the Shares that is a written communication, the version available without restriction was made available no later than the other versions).

(d) The Registration Statement has become effective pursuant to Rule 467(a) under the Securities Act and no stop order preventing or suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or suspending or preventing the use of any Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or any “free writing prospectus”, as defined in Rule 405 under the Rules, has been issued by the Commission and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are threatened under the Securities Act. Any required filing of any Preliminary Prospectus and/or the Final Prospectus and any supplement thereto pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules has been or will be made in the manner and within the time period required by such Rule 424(b). Any material required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Rules has been or will be made in the manner and within the time period required by such Rule 433(d).

(f) The Company is a “foreign private issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) and is entitled to use Form F-10 under the Securities Act to register the offering of the Shares under the Securities Act. The Company has prepared and filed with the Commission an appointment of agent for service of process upon the Company on Form F-X (the “Form F-X”).

(i) The Company has not withheld, and will not withhold, from the Underwriters any facts relating to the Company or to the offering of Shares that would reasonably be expected to be material to the prospective purchasers of the Shares.

(j) There are no reports or information that in accordance with the requirements of Canadian Securities Laws must be made publicly available in connection with the offering of the Shares that have not been made publicly available as required. There are no documents required to be filed with the Canadian Commissions in the Qualifying Jurisdictions in connection with the Canadian Final Prospectus that have not been filed as required pursuant to Canadian Securities Laws (other than those required to be filed after the date hereof pursuant to the Canadian Shelf Procedures). There are no contracts or other documents required to be described or filed in the Canadian Final Prospectus which have not been described or filed as required pursuant to Canadian Securities Laws.

(k) The financial statements of the Company (including all notes and schedules thereto) included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Statutory Prospectus and the Final Prospectus present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of and at the dates indicated and the results of their operations and cash flows for the periods specified; and such financial statements and related schedules and notes thereto, and the unaudited financial information filed with the Commission as part of the Registration Statement, have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), consistently applied throughout the periods involved. The summary and selected financial data and other financial information included in the Statutory Prospectus and Final Prospectus present fairly the information shown therein as at the respective dates and for the respective periods specified and have been presented on a basis consistent with the consolidated financial statements set forth in the Final Prospectus. No other financial statements or supporting schedules are required by the Securities Act or Canadian Securities Laws to be included in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus.

Except as disclosed in the Statutory Prospectus and the Final Prospectus, there has not been any “reportable event” (as that term is defined in National Instrument 51-102 Continuous Disclosure Obligations of the Canadian Securities Administrators) with the Auditor or any other prior auditor of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

(m) The Company and each of its subsidiaries, including each entity (corporation, partnership, joint venture, association or other business organization) controlled directly or indirectly by the Company (each, a “subsidiary”), is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent such concept exists in the relevant jurisdiction) under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of incorporation or organization (except where the failure of a subsidiary to be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined below)) and, except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect as it relates to the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary, each such entity has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as is currently being conducted as described in the Statutory Prospectus and the Final Prospectus, and to own, lease and operate its properties. All of the issued shares of capital stock of, or other ownership interests in, each subsidiary have been duly and validly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable, and, except as described in each of the Statutory Prospectus and the Final Prospectus, are owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company, free and clear of any lien, charge, mortgage, pledge, security interest, claim, limitation on voting rights, equity, trust or other encumbrance, preferential arrangement, defect or restriction of any kind whatsoever.

(xiii) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company will issue no press release or other communications directly or indirectly and hold no press conference with respect to the Company, the condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of any of them, or the offering of the Shares without the prior written consent of the Representatives, not to be unreasonably withheld, unless in the judgment of the Company and its counsel, and after notification to the Representatives, such press release or communication is required by law.

(xiv) The Company will apply the net proceeds from the offering of the Shares in the manner set forth under “Use of Proceeds” in the Final Prospectus and for no other purpose.

Additionally, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters have not and will not advise the Company or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company has consulted with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company or any other person with respect thereto, whether arising prior to or after the date hereof. Any review by the Underwriters of the Company, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions have been and will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of the Company. The Underwriters hereby expressly disclaim any fiduciary or similar obligations to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, either in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions, and the Company hereby confirms its understanding and agreement to that effect.

(iv) any order made or inquiry, investigation or proceeding commenced or threatened by any securities regulatory authority, stock exchange or by any competent authority which prevents or restricts the trading in or sale of the Company’s securities or the distribution of the Shares in any jurisdiction,

and this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly (nor jointly and severally), agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each director of the Company, and each officer of the Company who signs the Registration Statement, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such party may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Statutory Prospectus or the Final Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information; provided, however, that the obligation of each Underwriter to indemnify the Company (including any controlling person, director or officer thereof) shall be limited to the amount of the underwriting discount and commissions applicable to the Shares to be purchased by such Underwriter hereunder.

(c) Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding (including any governmental investigation) against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Section, notify each such indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding, enclosing a copy of all papers served. No indemnification provided for in Sections 5(a) and 5(b) shall be available to any party who shall fail to give notice as provided in this Section 5(c) if the party to whom notice was not given was unaware of the proceeding to which such notice would have related and was materially prejudiced by the failure to give such notice but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party of any such action, suit or proceeding shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than under this Section 5. In case any such action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in, undertake, conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing and at its own expense, and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and the approval by the indemnified party of such counsel, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses, except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ its counsel in any such action, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment of counsel by such indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them; or (iii) the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the commencement thereof, or, having assumed such defence, fails to pursue it diligently. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for (i) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Underwriters, and all of their respective officers, employees and agents, and all persons, if any, who control any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act or who are affiliates of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act and (ii) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Company, the officers of the Company who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either such Section. In the case of any such separate firm for the Underwriters and such officers, employees and agents, and such control persons and affiliates of any Underwriters, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Representatives. In the case of any such separate firm for the Company, officers of the Company and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Company. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested the indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by the indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. The indemnifying party shall not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and such settlement does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in Sections 5(a) or 5(b) is due in accordance with its terms but for any reason is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect to any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses (including any investigation, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claims asserted, but after deducting any contribution received by any person entitled hereunder to contribution from any person who may be liable for contribution) paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses: (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, or (ii) if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 5(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Shares shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Shares (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of each Final Prospectus, bear to the aggregate Public Offering Price of the Shares. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 5 are several in proportion to the respective number of Shares they have purchased hereunder, and not joint (nor joint and several).

(e) The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses paid or payable by an indemnified party and referred to in Section 5(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any such action, litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, (i) no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission and (ii) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 5 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity or otherwise. For purposes of this Section 5, each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties under this Section 5, notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission so to notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have hereunder or otherwise than under this Section 5. No party shall be liable for contribution with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or claim settled without its written consent. The Underwriter’s obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 5 are several in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments and not joint.

(f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 5 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, and any of their respective officers, employees or agents, any person controlling any Underwriter, or any affiliate of any Underwriter, or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Shares.

(g) The indemnifying party hereby acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to this Section 5, the Underwriters are contracting on their own behalf and as agents for their affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents and their respective affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Beneficiaries”). In this regard, each of the Underwriters will act as trustee for the Beneficiaries of the covenants of the indemnifying party under this Section 5 with respect to the Beneficiaries and accepts these trusts and will hold and enforce those covenants on behalf of the Beneficiaries.

6. Termination.

(a) Each Underwriter shall be entitled, at such Underwriter’s sole option, to terminate and cancel, without any liability on such Underwriters’ part, its obligations under this Agreement to purchase the Firm Shares and the Option Shares, if any, by giving written notice to that effect to the Company at any time at or before the Firm Shares Closing Date or the Option Shares Closing Date, as applicable, in the absolute discretion of such Underwriter, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Firm Shares Closing Date or the Option Shares Closing Date, as applicable: (i) there has occurred any material adverse change in the securities markets or any event, act or occurrence that has materially disrupted, or in the opinion of the Representatives, will in the future materially disrupt, the securities markets or there shall be such a material adverse change in general financial, political or economic conditions or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States or Canada is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Underwriter, inadvisable or impracticable to market the Shares or enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares; (ii) there has occurred any outbreak or material escalation of hostilities or acts of terrorism or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States or Canada is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Underwriter, inadvisable or impracticable to market the Shares or enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares; (iii) there shall have occurred any catastrophe, accident, natural disaster, public protest, war, outbreak or escalation of hostilities or terrorist action, or any change in financial markets, currency exchange rates or controls or any calamity or crisis, or any other occurrence of any nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, any material escalation of the COVID-19 pandemic or any other pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of infectious disease or similar global health crisis on or after June 1, 2021), that, in that Underwriter’s judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause, makes it, in that Underwriter’s judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Statutory Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus; (iv) there should develop, occur or come into effect or existence any event, action, state, condition or major financial occurrence of national or international consequence or any law or regulation which, in the opinion of that Underwriter, seriously adversely affects, or involves, or will seriously adversely affect, or involve, the financial markets or the business, operations or affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries (taken as a whole); (v) any law or regulation under or pursuant to any statute of Canada or of any province thereof, or of the United States or any state or territory thereof, is promulgated or changed which in the opinion of that Underwriter, acting in good faith, operates to prevent or materially restrict the distribution of the Shares or trading of the Shares or which, in the opinion of that Underwriter, acting in good faith, would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the market price or value of the Shares or a Material Adverse Effect, (vi) trading in the Shares or any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited or trading generally on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or the Toronto Stock Exchange has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required, by any of said exchanges or by such system or by order of the Commission, the Canadian Commissions, FINRA, or any other governmental or regulatory authority; (vii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in Canada or the United States shall have occurred (viii) any moratorium on commercial banking activities has been declared by Canadian or United States authorities; (ix) any inquiry, investigation or proceeding in relation to the Company or its directors or officers, whether formal or informal, is commenced, announced, or threatened, which, in the opinion of that Underwriter, acting in good faith, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (x) in the judgment of the Underwriter, there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Final Prospectus, any material adverse change or any change in material fact or any new material facts arise in respect of the Company and its subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the market price or value of the Shares or a Material Adverse Effect; or (xi) the Company is in breach of any material term, condition or covenant of this Agreement or any representation or warranty given by the Company in this Agreement is false or becomes false in any material respect.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any of its provisions, the Company shall not be under any liability to any Underwriter, and no Underwriter shall be under any liability to the Company, except that (y) if this Agreement is terminated by any Underwriter because of any failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of their counsel, subject to the limitation on reimbursable expenses in Section 4(b)) incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Shares or in contemplation of performing their obligations hereunder and (z) no Underwriter who shall have failed or refused to purchase the Shares agreed to be purchased by it under this Agreement, without some reason sufficient hereunder to justify cancellation or termination of its obligations under this Agreement, shall be relieved of liability to the Company, or to the other Underwriters, for damages occasioned by its failure or refusal.

7. Substitution of Underwriters. If any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to purchase on any Closing Date the Shares agreed to be purchased hereunder on such Closing Date, the Representatives shall have the right, within 36 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase such Shares on the terms contained herein. If, however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within such 36-hour period, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure another party or other parties satisfactory to the Underwriters to purchase such Shares on such terms. If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Shares of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the Representatives and the Company as provided above, the aggregate number of Shares which remains unpurchased on such Closing Date does not exceed one-tenth of the aggregate number of all the Shares that all the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such date, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the number of Shares which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder at such date and, in addition, to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase its pro rata share (based on the number of Shares which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Shares of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default. In any such case, either the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the applicable Closing Date for a period of not more than seven days in order to effect any necessary changes and arrangements (including any necessary amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or Final Prospectus or any other documents), and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendments to the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus which in the opinion of the Company and the Underwriters and their counsel may thereby be made necessary.

If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Shares of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the Representatives and the Company as provided above, the aggregate number of such Shares which remains unpurchased exceeds 10% of the aggregate number of all the Shares to be purchased at such date, then this Agreement, or, with respect to a Closing Date which occurs after the Firm Shares Closing Date, the obligations of the Underwriters to purchase and of the Company to sell the Option Shares to be purchased and sold on such date, shall terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter to the Company, and without liability on the part of the Company, except as provided in Sections 4(b), 5 and 6. The provisions of this Section 7 shall not in any way affect the liability of any defaulting Underwriter to the Company or the non-defaulting Underwriters arising out of such default. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this Section 7 with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Shares.

8. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolutions Regimes.

(a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity (as defined below) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime (as defined below), the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate (as defined below) of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights (as defined below) under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(c) For purposes of this Section 19.7 a “BHC Act Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k). “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. “U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of: (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder; and (ii) Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

9. Miscellaneous. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and contribution obligations of the Company and the several Underwriters, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company or any of their respective officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 5 hereof, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Shares. In addition, the provisions of Sections 3(k), 4(b), 5 and 6 shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

This Agreement has been and is made for the benefit of the Underwriters and the Company and their respective successors and assigns, and, to the extent expressed herein, for the benefit of persons controlling any of the Underwriters or the Company, and directors and officers of the Company, and their respective successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. The term “successors and assigns” shall not include any purchaser of Shares from any Underwriter merely because of such purchase.

This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the Company and the Underwriters with respect to the preparation of the Final Prospectus, the conduct of the offering of the Shares, and the purchase and sale of the Shares, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether written or oral, between those parties with respect to their respective rights and obligations in respect of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement.

Re:	Public Offering of Westport Fuel Systems Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned, a holder of common shares (“Common Shares”), or rights to acquire Common Shares, of Westport Fuel Systems Inc.

As Representatives of the several Underwriters

Re: Westport Fuel Systems Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Westport Fuel Systems Inc., a corporation incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the “Company”), in connection with the sale to you and the several underwriters for whom you are acting as representatives (the “Underwriters”) by the Company of [ ˜ ] common shares (the “Shares”) of the Company pursuant to the multijurisdictional disclosure system between the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and the provincial securities regulators in Canada. In the United States, the offering of the Shares will be made pursuant to a registration statement on Form F-10 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), filed with the Commission on March 4, 2021 (Registration No. 333-253892) (as so filed and as amended, the “Registration Statement”), a base prospectus dated March 16, 2021 included in the Registration Statement (the “Base Prospectus”), a preliminary prospectus supplement dated [ ˜ ], 2021, each document that the Company has identified as an “issuer free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rules 433 and 405 under the Act) and that is described on Exhibit A hereto (each, a “Specified IFWP”), a prospectus supplement dated [ ˜ ], 2021 (the “Prospectus Supplement” and, together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”), and an underwriting agreement dated [ ˜ ], 2021 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) between you, as representatives of the several Underwriters, and the Company. The reports and documents filed by the Company with the Commission and with the Canadian provincial regulatory authorities in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Island and Saskatchewan and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus are herein called the “Incorporated Documents.” Unless stated otherwise, references herein to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus exclude the Incorporated Documents. This letter is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 3(g) of the Underwriting Agreement.

B-1

As such counsel, we have examined such matters of fact and questions of law as we have considered appropriate for purposes of this letter, except where a specified fact confirmation procedure is stated to have been performed (in which case we have with your consent performed the stated procedure). We have examined, among other things, the following:

(a)

the Underwriting Agreement, the Registration Statement, the Specified IFWP, the Prospectus and the Incorporated Documents; and

(b) the agreements listed in Exhibit B hereto (the “Specified US Agreements”).

Except as otherwise stated herein, as to factual matters, we have, with your consent, relied upon the foregoing and upon oral and written statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others, including the representations and warranties of the Company in the Underwriting Agreement. We have not independently verified such factual matters.

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, including any endorsements, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies.

We are opining as to the effect on the subject transaction only of (a) the federal laws of the United States and (b) the internal laws of the State of New York, and we express no opinion with respect to the applicability to the opinions expressed herein, or the effect thereon, of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Except as otherwise stated herein, our opinions herein are based upon our consideration of only those statutes, rules and regulations which, in our experience, are normally applicable to registered public offerings of common stock. We express no opinion as to any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to the subject transactions because of the legal or regulatory status of any parties to the Underwriting Agreement or the legal or regulatory status of any of their affiliates. Various issues pertaining to Canadian laws and regulations are addressed in the opinion of Xxxxxxx Xxxxx LLP, separately provided to you. We express no opinion with respect to those matters herein, and to the extent elements of those opinions are necessary to the conclusions expressed herein, we have, with your consent, assumed such elements.

B-2

Subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth herein, as of the date hereof:

1. The execution and delivery of the Underwriting Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Shares by the Company to you pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement do not on the date hereof:

(i) result in the breach of or a default under any of the Specified US Agreements;

(ii) violate any federal or New York statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company; or

(iii) require any consents, approvals or authorizations to be obtained by the Company from, or any registrations, declarations or filings to be made by the Company with, any governmental authority under any federal or New York statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company on or prior to the date hereof that have not been obtained or made.

2. The Registration Statement has become effective under the Act. With your consent, based solely on a review of a list of stop orders on the Commission’s website at xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/xxxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxx.xxxxx at 9:00 a.m. New York City time on [ ˜ ], 2021, we confirm that no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Act and no proceedings therefor have been initiated by the Commission.

3. The Registration Statement, as of its most recent effective date, and the Prospectus, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, each appeared on their face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable form requirements for registration statements on Form F-10 under the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder; it being understood, however, that we express no view with respect to Regulation S-T or the financial statements, schedules or other financial data included in, incorporated by reference in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus. For purposes of this paragraph, we have assumed that the statements made in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus are correct and complete. We have also assumed that the Prospectus satisfies the rules and regulations of the Canadian provincial regulatory authorities in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Island, Saskatchewan and Quebec regarding the form and method of preparation of disclosure documents, with such deletions therefrom and additions thereto as are permitted or required by Form F-10 and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission.

4. The Company is not, and immediately after giving effect to the sale of the Shares in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement and the application of the proceeds as described in the Prospectus under the caption “Use of Proceeds,” will not be, required to be registered as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

B-3

We express no opinion or confirmation as to federal or state securities laws (except as expressly set forth in paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 as to federal securities laws), tax laws (except as set forth in our letter to you of even date with respect to certain tax matters), antitrust or trade regulation laws, insolvency or fraudulent transfer laws, antifraud laws, compliance with fiduciary duty requirements, pension or employee benefit laws, usury laws, environmental laws, margin regulations, laws and regulations relating to commodities trading, futures and swaps, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. rules, National Futures Association rules, the rules of any stock exchange, clearing organization, designated contract market or other regulated entity for trading, processing, clearing or reporting transactions in securities, commodities, futures or swaps, or export control, anti-money laundering, and anti-terrorism laws, and laws governing foreign investment in the United States (without limiting other laws or rules excluded by customary practice).

Insofar as our opinions require interpretation of the Specified US Agreements, with your consent, (i) we have assumed that all courts of competent jurisdiction would enforce such agreements in accordance with their plain meaning, (ii) we express no opinion with respect to a breach or default under any Specified US Agreement that would occur only upon the happening of a contingency and (iii) we express no opinion with respect to any matters which require the performance of a mathematical calculation or the making of a financial or accounting determination.

This letter is furnished only to you in your capacity as representatives of the several Underwriters in their capacity as underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement and is solely for the benefit of the Underwriters in connection with the transactions referenced in the first paragraph of this letter. This letter may not be relied upon by you or them for any other purpose, or furnished to, assigned to, quoted to, or relied upon by any other person, firm or other entity for any purpose (including any person, firm or other entity that acquires Shares or any interest therein from you or the other Underwriters) without our prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in our sole discretion.

Re: Westport Fuel Systems Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Westport Fuel Systems Inc., a corporation incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the “Company”), in connection with the sale to you and the several underwriters for whom you are acting as representatives (the “Underwriters”) by the Company of [ ˜ ] common shares (the “Shares”) of the Company pursuant to the multijurisdictional disclosure system between the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and the provincial securities regulators in Canada. In the United States, the offering of the Shares will be made pursuant to a registration statement on Form F-10 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), filed with the Commission on March 4, 2021 (Registration No. 333-253892) (as so filed and as amended, the “Registration Statement”), a base prospectus dated March 16, 2021 included in the Registration Statement (the “Base Prospectus”), a preliminary prospectus supplement dated [ ˜ ], 2021 (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement” and, together with the Base Prospectus, the “Preliminary Prospectus”), each document that the Company has identified as an “issuer free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rules 433 and 405 under the Act) and that is described on Exhibit A hereto (each, a “Specified IFWP”), a prospectus supplement dated [ ˜ ], 2021 (the “Prospectus Supplement” and, together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”), and an underwriting agreement dated [ ˜ ], 2021 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) between you, as representatives of the several Underwriters, and the Company. The reports and documents filed by the Company with the Commission and with the Canadian provincial regulatory authorities in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Island and Saskatchewan and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus are herein called the “Incorporated Documents.” Unless stated otherwise, references herein to the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus exclude the Incorporated Documents. This letter is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 3(g) of the Underwriting Agreement.

B-7

The primary purpose of our professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters or financial or quantitative information. Therefore, we are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in, or incorporated by reference in, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, any Specified IFWP, the Prospectus or the Incorporated Documents (except to the extent expressly set forth in our letter to you of even date with respect to certain tax matters) and have not made an independent check or verification thereof (except as aforesaid). However, in the course of acting as special counsel to the Company in connection with the preparation by the Company of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, each Specified IFWP, and the Prospectus, we reviewed the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, each Specified IFWP, the Prospectus and the Incorporated Documents and participated in conferences and telephone conversations with officers and other representatives of the Company, counsel for the Company, the independent public accountants for the Company, your representatives and your counsel, during which conferences and conversations the contents of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, each Specified IFWP, and the Prospectus (and portions of certain of the Incorporated Documents) and related matters were discussed. We also reviewed and relied upon certain corporate records and documents, letters from counsel and accountants and oral and written statements of officers and other representatives of the Company and others as to the existence and consequence of certain factual and other matters.

Based on our participation, review and reliance as described above, we advise you that no facts came to our attention that caused us to believe that:

	●	the Registration Statement, as of [ ˜ ], 2021 (together with the Incorporated Documents at that date), contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

	●	the Preliminary Prospectus, as of [ ˜ ] p.m. New York City Time on [ ˜ ], 2021 (together with the Incorporated Documents at that time and the Specified IFWP)contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or

	●	the Prospectus, as of its date or as of the date hereof (together with the Incorporated Documents at those dates), contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

B-8

it being understood that we express no belief with respect to the financial statements, schedules or other financial data included in, incorporated by reference in or omitted from, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, each Specified IFWP, the Prospectus or the Incorporated Documents.

The execution and delivery by the Company of, and the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement and the issuance of the Shares in accordance with the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, do not and will not create a state of facts which, after notice or lapse of time or both, will result in a breach of or default under, and do not and will not conflict with and do not and will not contravene: (i) any provisions of the articles, by-laws or resolutions of the shareholders or directors (or any committee thereof) of the Company; (ii) the laws of general application, including applicable Canadian Securities Laws, of the Province of British Columbia and the laws of general application of Canada applicable therein applicable to the sale of the Shares; or (iii) any of the agreements or instruments described in Schedule A hereto.
