REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTION

XPENG’s mission is to drive smart electric vehicle (EV) transformation with technology, shaping the mobility experience of the future. We have foreseen that with the advent of autonomous driving and machine intelligence, the current four-wheeled transportation will be gradually transformed. We expect that a substantial part of XPENG’s research and development of smart EV will be related to intelligent robotics. To achieve this, it is essential for XPENG to have long-term and consistent planning and investment in product research and development.

Dogotix has been dedicated to research and development of robots with human-robot interaction functions since its incorporation. With a remarkable focus on cutting-edge technology, Dogotix aims to revolutionize the way humans and robots interact and collaborate. As of the date of the Share Purchase Agreements, Dogotix has built up a strong team of engineers and researchers and accumulated 246 intellectual properties, covering motion control, robotic arm control, robot autonomous navigation, motor and transmission design, robot integrated hardware design, human-robot interaction and voice control. Upon completion of the Transaction, XPENG will have full ownership and control over Dogotix, which will enable XPENG to dedicate to the research and development of general-purpose humanoid intelligent robots.

The Directors (including independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the terms of the Transaction contemplated under the Share Purchase Agreements are fair and reasonable, on normal commercial terms and in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

As Mr. Xiaopeng He holds equity interests in Dogotix and Mr. Fei Yang served as a partner of IDG Capital, both Mr. Xiaopeng He and Mr. Fei Yang have abstained from voting on the Board resolution in respect of the Share Purchase Agreements and the Transaction. Save for the above, to the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, no other Director had a material interest in or shall abstain from voting on Board resolution in respect of the Share Purchase Agreements and the Transaction.
