ANNEX A

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PUBCO EXCHANGE WARRANTS

From and after the Effective Time, the form and provisions of the Warrants, the terms upon which they shall be issued and exercised, and the respective rights, limitation of rights, and immunities of Pubco and the holders of the Warrants, shall be as set forth in the following terms and conditions (these “Warrant Terms”).

1. Form and Registration of Warrants.

1.1 Form of Warrant. Each Warrant shall subsist in registered form only. If a physical certificate is issued in respect of a Warrant, then such certificate:

(a) shall be in substantially the form of Annex B to that certain Novation, Assumption and Amendment Agreement made and entered into on April 28, 2023, by and among Zapp Electric Vehicles Limited, Zapp Electric Vehicles Group Limited, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx and CIIG Capital Partners II, Inc. (the “Company Warrant Agreement”) the provisions of which are incorporated herein;

(b) shall be signed by, or bear the facsimile signature of, the Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operations Officer, Secretary or other principal officer of Pubco; and

(c) shall be invalid and of no effect and may not be exercised by the holder thereof, unless and until countersigned by Pubco in accordance with these Warrant Terms.

1.2 Registry Matters.

(a) Pubco shall maintain a register of warrantholders (the “Warrant Register”) recording the issuance, holder, denomination and transfer of the Warrants.

(b) Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant in accordance with and as permitted by these Warrant Terms, Pubco may deem and treat the person in whose name such Warrant is registered in the Warrant Register (the “Registered Holder”) as the absolute owner of such Warrant and of each Warrant represented thereby, for the purpose of any exercise thereof, and for all other purposes, and Pubco shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary

1.3 No Fractional Warrants. Pubco shall not issue fractional Warrants. If a holder of Warrants would be entitled to receive a fractional Warrant, Pubco shall round down to the nearest whole number the number of Warrants to be issued to such holder.

2. Duration of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised only during the period (the “Exercise Period”) commencing upon the Effective Time, and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 28, 2024 (the “Expiration Date”). Each outstanding Warrant not exercised on or before the Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under these Warrant Terms, shall cease at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date.

3. Terms of Exercise of Warrants.

3.1 Warrant Price. Each Warrant shall entitle the Registered Holder thereof, subject to the provisions of such Warrant and of these Warrant Terms, to purchase from Pubco the number of Pubco Common Shares stated therein, at the price per Pubco Common Share equal to the Warrant Price, being (i) $0.79 in relation to 2,280,979 Pubco Exchange Warrants (the “Tranche 1 Warrants”); and (ii) $4.49 in relation to 1,140,490 Pubco Exchange Warrants (the “Tranche 2 Warrants”), subject to the adjustments provided in Part 4 of these Warrant Terms. The term “Warrant Price” as used in these Warrant Terms shall mean the price per share at which Pubco Common Shares may be purchased at the time a Warrant is exercised.

Annex A - 1

3.2 Election to Purchase and Payment. Subject to the provisions of the Warrant and these Warrant Terms, a Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder thereof by delivering to Pubco (a) the Warrant Certificate, if any, evidencing the Warrants to be exercised, (b) an election to purchase (“Election to Purchase”) Pubco Common Shares pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant, in the form on the reverse of the Warrant Certificate, properly completed and executed by the Registered Holder (on the reverse of the Warrant Certificate, if any), and (c) payment in full of the relevant Warrant Price for each full Pubco Common Share as to which the Warrant is exercised and any and all applicable fees and taxes due in connection with the exercise of the Warrant, the exchange of the Warrant for the Pubco Common Shares and the issuance of such Pubco Common Shares, by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

3.3 Issuance of Pubco Common Shares. As soon as practicable after the valid exercise of any Warrant in accordance with Part 3.2 hereof and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant, Pubco shall issue to the Registered Holder of such Warrant a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of full Pubco Common Shares to which such Registered Holder is entitled pursuant to these Warrant Terms, registered in the name of such Warrantholder (or such other person as may be directed by the Warrantholder), and if such Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new book-entry position or countersigned Warrant, as applicable, for the number of Pubco Common Shares as to which such Warrant shall not have been exercised. If fewer than all the Warrants are exercised, a notation shall be made to the Warrant Register maintained by Pubco evidencing the balance of the Warrants remaining after such exercise.

3.4 Valid Issuance. All Pubco Common Shares issued upon the proper exercise of a Warrant in conformity with these Warrant Terms and organizational or constitutional documents of Pubco shall be validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable, unencumbered and free and clear of any security interests, claims (including pre-emptive rights), liens and encumbrances.

3.5 Date of Issuance. Upon due and proper exercise of a Warrant, Pubco shall make the necessary entries in the register of members of Pubco (and, if agreed between the Registered Holder and Pubco, issue a certificate) to reflect such Warrantholder as holder of the Pubco Common Shares issued in respect of the exercised Warrant. Each person in whose name any book-entry position in the register of members of Pubco or certificate, as applicable, for Pubco Common Shares is issued shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Pubco Common Shares on the date on which the Warrant, or book-entry position in the register of members of Pubco representing such Warrant, was surrendered and payment of the relevant Warrant Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate in the case of a certificated Warrant, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the register of members or share transfer books of Pubco or book-entry system of Pubco are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such Pubco Common Shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the register of members, share transfer books or book-entry system are open.

4. Adjustments.

4.1 Share Dividends and Splits. If following the Effective Time, and subject to the provisions of Part 4.6 below, the number of outstanding Pubco Common Shares is increased by a share dividend payable in Pubco Common Shares, or by a split up of Pubco Common Shares, or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such share dividend, split up or similar event, the number of Pubco Common Shares issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares of Pubco Common Shares.

Annex A - 2

4.2 Aggregation of Shares. If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Part 4.6 below, the number of issued and outstanding Pubco Common Shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination or reclassification of Pubco Common Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reclassification or similar event, the number of Pubco Common Shares issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in issued and outstanding Pubco Common Shares.

4.3 Adjustments in Warrant Price. Whenever the number of Pubco Common Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted, as provided in Parts 4.1 or 4.2 above, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of Pubco Common Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of Pubco Common Shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.

4.4 Replacement of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Pubco Common Shares (other than a change addressed in Parts 4.1 or 4.2 above or that solely affects the par value of such Pubco Common Shares), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of Pubco with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which Pubco is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Pubco Common Shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of Pubco as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which Pubco is wound up and subsequently dissolved, the Warrantholders shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the Warrants and in lieu of the Pubco Common Shares purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a winding up and dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the Warrantholder would have received if such Warrantholder had exercised his, her or its Warrant(s) immediately prior to such event; and if any reclassification also results in a change in Pubco Common Shares addressed in Parts 4.1 or 4.2 above, then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to Parts 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and this Part 4.4. The provisions of this Part 4.4 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers.

4.5 Notices of Changes in Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of Pubco Common Shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant, Pubco shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holders as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, which notice shall state the Warrant Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of Pubco Common Shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of a Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in Parts 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4, Pubco shall give written notice of the occurrence of such event to each holder of a Warrant as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, at the last address set forth for such holder in the Warrant Register, of the record date or the effective date of the event. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event unless there has been material prejudice to the Warrantholder as a result of failure to give such notice, or any defect therein.

Annex A - 3

4.6 No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Pubco shall not issue fractional Pubco Common Shares upon the exercise of Warrants. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Part 4, the holder of any Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, Pubco shall, upon such exercise, round down to the nearest whole number, the number of Pubco Common Shares to be issued to such holder.

4.7 Form of Warrant. The form of Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this Part 4, and Warrants issued after such adjustment may state the same Warrant Price and the same number of Pubco Common Shares as is stated in the Warrants as of immediately following the Effective Time; provided, however, that Pubco may at any time in its sole discretion make any change in the form of Warrant that Pubco may deem appropriate and that does not affect the substance thereof, and any Warrant thereafter issued or countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding Warrant or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

4.8 Other Events. In case any event shall occur affecting Pubco as to which none of the provisions of preceding subsections of this Part 4 are strictly applicable, but which would require an adjustment to the terms of the Warrants in order to (a) avoid an adverse impact on the Warrants and (b) effectuate the intent and purpose of this Part 4, then, in each such case, the board of directors of Pubco shall appoint a firm of independent public accountants, investment banking or other appraisal firm of recognized national standing, which shall give its opinion as to whether or not any adjustment to the rights represented by the Warrants is necessary to effectuate the intent and purpose of this Part 4 and, if they determine that an adjustment is necessary, the terms of such adjustment. Without prejudice to the foregoing, Pubco shall not take any action which would result in any adjustment to the Warrant Price if, after giving effect thereto, the Warrant Price would be decreased to such an extent that the Pubco Common Shares to be issued on exercise of any Warrants could not, under any applicable law then in effect, be legally issued as fully paid.

5. Transfer and Exchange of Warrants.

5.1 Restriction on Transfer. During the Exercise Period, without the prior written consent of the board of directors of Pubco, no holder of Warrants shall effect, undertake, enter into or announce any (a) sale of, offer to sell, contract or agreement to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant of any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agreement to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establishment or increase of a put equivalent position or liquidation with respect to or decrease of a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, with respect to, any Warrant, (b) entry into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Warrant, whether or not any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise, or (c) public announcement of any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (a) or (b). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of any conflict between the provisions in this Agreement and the provisions in the Investor Exchange and Support Agreement entered into as of November 22, 2022, by and among Pubco, the Company and others named therein (the “Investor Exchange Agreement”), the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

5.2 Registration of Transfer. Subject to Part 5.1 above, Pubco shall register the transfer, from time to time, of any outstanding Warrant upon the Warrant Register, upon surrender of such Warrant for transfer, in the case of certificated Warrants, properly endorsed with signatures properly guaranteed and accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants shall be issued and the old Warrant shall be cancelled by Pubco.

Annex A - 4

5.3 Procedure for Surrender of Warrants. Subject to Part 5.1 above, Warrants may be surrendered to Pubco, together with a written request for exchange or transfer, and thereupon Pubco shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Warrants as requested by the Registered Holder of the Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants; provided, however, that in the event that a Warrant surrendered for transfer bears a restrictive legend, Pubco shall not cancel such Warrant and issue new Warrants in exchange thereof until Pubco has received an opinion of counsel for Pubco stating that such transfer may be made and indicating whether the new Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend.

5.4 Fractional Warrants. Pubco shall not be required to effect any registration of transfer or exchange which shall result in the issuance of a warrant certificate or book-entry position for a fraction of a warrant.

5.5 Service Charges. No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Warrants.

5.6 Warrant Execution and Countersignature. Subject to Part 5.1 above, Pubco is hereby authorized to countersign and to deliver, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Warrants required to be issued pursuant to the provisions of this Part 5.

6. Other Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.

6.1 No Rights as Shareholder. A Warrant does not entitle the Registered Holder thereof to any of the rights of a shareholder of Pubco, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as shareholders in respect of general meetings or the appointment of directors of Pubco or any other matter.

6.2 Lost, Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants. If any Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed, Pubco may on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as they may in their discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination, tenor, and date as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of Pubco, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

6.3 Reservation of Ordinary Shares. Pubco shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued Pubco Common Shares that shall be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to this Agreement.

6.4 Examination of the Warrant Agreement. A copy of these Warrant Terms and of the Company Warrant Agreement may be obtained by the Warrantholder upon written request to Pubco. Pubco may require any such holder to submit such holder’s Warrant for inspection by Pubco.
