page 10

3     Conditions Precedent and pre-implementation steps

(c) The Conditions Precedent in clauses 3.1(e) (Independent Expert), 3.1(g) (No SPAC Prescribed Occurrence), 3.1(m) (Transaction Documents), 3.1(o) (ATO Ruling), 3.1(q) (CEF Agreement) and 3.1(u) (SPAC Representations and Warranties) are for the sole benefit of Carbon Revolution and may only be waived by Carbon Revolution (in its absolute discretion) in writing.

(d) The Condition Precedent in clause 3.1(b) (Restraints) is for the benefit of both the SPAC and Carbon Revolution and may only be waived by written agreement between the SPAC and Carbon Revolution (in each case in their respective absolute discretion).

(e) Waiver of a breach or non-satisfaction in respect of one Condition Precedent does not constitute:

(1) a waiver of breach or non-satisfaction of any other Condition Precedent resulting from the same event; or

(2) a waiver of breach or non-satisfaction of that Condition Precedent resulting from any other event.

3.4 Termination on failure of Condition Precedent

(a) If there is an event or occurrence that would, does, or will prevent any of the Conditions Precedent being satisfied (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if Carbon Revolution Shareholders do not agree to the Scheme at the Scheme Meeting by the requisite majorities), or if any of the Conditions Precedent will not otherwise be satisfied, by the earlier of:

(1) the time and date specified in this deed for the satisfaction of that Condition Precedent; and

(2) the End Date,

or such Condition Precedent is otherwise not satisfied by that specified time and date or by the End Date (as applicable), or it becomes more likely than not that the Scheme will not become Effective on or before the End Date, then any party may give the other parties written notice (Consultation Notice) within 5 Business Days after a relevant notice being given under clause 3.5(b) and the parties then must consult in good faith to:

(3) consider and, if agreed, determine, whether the Transaction may proceed by way of alternative means or methods or whether, in the case of a breach of the Condition Precedent in clause 3.1(f) (No Carbon Revolution Prescribed Occurrence), 3.1(g) (No SPAC Prescribed Occurrence) or 3.1(h) (No MergeCo Prescribed Occurrence), the breach or the effects of the breach is or are able to be remedied;

(4) consider changing and, if agreed, change, the date of the application made to the Court for an order under paragraph 411(4)(b) of the Corporations Act approving the Scheme or adjourning that application (as applicable) to another date agreed to in writing by the SPAC and Carbon Revolution (being a date no later than 5 Business Days before the End Date); or

page 11

3     Conditions Precedent and pre-implementation steps

(5) consider extending and, if agreed, extend, the time and date specified in this deed for the satisfaction of that Condition Precedent or End Date (as applicable),

respectively.

(b) Subject to clauses 3.4(c), 3.4(d) and 3.4(e), if the parties are unable to reach agreement under clause 3.4(a) within 5 Business Days after the date on which the Consultation Notice is given, then, unless:

(1) the relevant Condition Precedent has been waived in accordance with clause 3.3; or

(2) the party or parties (as applicable), entitled to waive the relevant Condition Precedent in accordance with clause 3.3 confirms in writing to the other parties that it will not rely on the event or occurrence that would or does prevent the relevant Condition Precedent from being satisfied, or would mean the relevant Condition Precedent would or will not otherwise be satisfied,

any Party may terminate this deed without any liability to the other parties because of that termination. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this clause 3.4(b) affects the obligation of Carbon Revolution or the SPAC to pay the Reimbursement Fee if it is required to do so under clause 11.

(c) A party may not terminate this deed pursuant to clause 3.4(b) if:

(1) the relevant occurrence or event, the failure of the Condition Precedent to be satisfied, or the failure of the Scheme to become Effective, arises out of a breach of clauses 3.2 or 3.5 by that party; or

(2) the relevant Condition Precedent is stated in clause 3.3 to be for the sole benefit of the other party.

(d) If the Condition Precedent in clause 3.1(c) (Shareholder approval) is not satisfied only because of a failure to obtain the majority required by sub-subparagraph 411(4)(a)(ii)(A) of the Corporations Act, then any party may by written notice to the other parties within 3 Business Days after the date of the conclusion of the Scheme Meeting require the approval of the Court to be sought, pursuant to the Court’s discretion in that sub-subparagraph, provided the party has, in good faith formed the view that the prospect of the Court exercising its discretion in that way is reasonable.  If such a notice is given, Carbon Revolution must make such submissions to the Court and file such evidence as counsel engaged by Carbon Revolution to represent it in Court proceedings related to the Scheme, in consultation with the SPAC, considers is reasonably required to seek to persuade the Court to exercise its discretion under sub-subparagraph 411(4)(a)(ii)(A) of the Act. If approval is given, the Condition Precedent in clause 3.1(c) (Shareholder approval) is deemed to be satisfied for all purposes.

(e) If the Court refuses to make an order approving the Scheme which satisfies the Condition Precedent in clause 3.1(d) (Court approval), at the SPAC’s request Carbon Revolution must appeal the Court’s decision to the fullest extent possible (except to the extent that the parties agree otherwise, or an independent Senior Counsel indicates that, in their view, an appeal would have negligible prospects of success before the End Date). Carbon Revolution may bring an appeal even if not requested by the SPAC. If any such appeal is undertaken at the request of the SPAC, the SPAC will bear Carbon Revolution’s costs of the appeal (including costs of the independent Senior Counsel) unless the parties otherwise agree. If any such appeal is undertaken by Carbon Revolution without the prior request from the SPAC, Carbon Revolution will bear the SPAC and MergeCo’s costs of the appeal unless the parties otherwise agree.

4     Transaction steps  

3.5 Certain notices relating to Conditions Precedent

If a party becomes aware of:

(a) the satisfaction of a Condition Precedent or of any material progress towards such satisfaction; or

(b) the happening of an event or occurrence that would, does, will, or would reasonably be likely to:

(1) prevent a Condition Precedent being satisfied; or

(2) mean that any Condition Precedent will not otherwise be satisfied,

before the time and date specified for its satisfaction (or being satisfied by the End Date, if no such time and date is specified) or such Condition Precedent is not otherwise satisfied by that time and date (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if Carbon Revolution Shareholders do not agree to the Scheme at the Scheme Meeting by the requisite majorities), it must advise the other party by notice in writing, as soon as possible (and in any event within 2 Business Days).

4 Transaction steps

4.1 Scheme

Carbon Revolution must propose the Scheme to Carbon Revolution Shareholders on and subject to the terms and conditions of this deed and the Scheme.

(a) In order to facilitate the provision of the Scheme Consideration, Carbon Revolution must provide, or procure the provision of, to MergeCo or a nominee of MergeCo a complete copy of the Carbon Revolution Share Register as at the Scheme Record Date (which must include the name, Registered Address and registered holding of each Scheme Shareholder as at the Scheme Record Date), within one Business Day after the Scheme Record Date.

page 13

5     Implementation    

(b) The details and information to be provided under clause 4.4(a) must be provided in such form as MergeCo or its nominee may reasonably require.

4.5 Equity Incentives

Despite any other provision of this deed:

(b) Carbon Revolution must ensure that all Equity Incentives which are not Carbon Revolution Shares have either been cancelled or exchanged, lapsed or vested and converted into Carbon Revolution Shares such that there are no outstanding Equity Incentives which are not Carbon Revolution Shares on issue as at the Scheme Record Date.

For the avoidance of doubt, the exercise of any discretion by the Carbon Revolution Board, or any other action, which is in accordance with this clause 4.5, will not be a Carbon Revolution Prescribed Occurrence or a breach of any provision of this deed, or give rise to any right to terminate this deed, and will be disregarded when assessing the operation of any other part of this deed.

4.6 Tax treatment

(a) No party has taken (or failed to take) any action or caused any action to be taken (or to fail to be taken) and will not take (or fail to take) any action or will cause any action to be taken (or to fail to be taken) (in each case other than any action provided for or prohibited by this deed), or has any knowledge of any fact or circumstance, that would reasonably be expected to prevent the Merger and the Scheme, as applicable, from qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment.

(b) Each party agrees to act in good faith consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment and will not take any position on any U.S. Tax Return or otherwise take any U.S. Tax reporting position inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, that the Intended Tax Treatment is not correct.

5 Implementation

10.4 Matching right

(a) Without limiting clause 10.1, during the Exclusivity Period, Carbon Revolution:

(1) must not, and must procure that each of its Related Bodies Corporate do not, enter into any legally binding agreement, arrangement or understanding (whether or not in writing) pursuant to which one or more of a Third Party, Carbon Revolution or any Related Body Corporate of Carbon Revolution proposes or propose to undertake or give effect to an actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal; and

(2) must procure that none of the Carbon Revolution Board Members change their recommendation in favour of the Scheme and the Capital Reduction, publicly recommend an actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal (or recommend against the Transaction) or make any public statement to the effect that they may do so at a future point (provided that a statement that no action should be taken by Carbon Revolution Shareholders pending the assessment of a Competing Proposal by the Carbon Revolution Board or the completion of the matching right process set out in this clause 10.4 shall not contravene this clause 10.4, provided that Carbon Revolution uses its best endeavours to procure that the Carbon Revolution Board publicly reaffirms its recommendation in favour of the Transaction when making any such statement and also subject to any change of recommendation by the Carbon Revolution Board that is permitted by clause 5.11(b)),

page 41

10     Exclusivity

unless:

(3) the Carbon Revolution Board acting in good faith and in order to satisfy what the Carbon Revolution Board Members consider to be their statutory or fiduciary duties (having received written legal advice from its external Australian legal advisers) determines that the Competing Proposal is, or would be reasonably likely to be, an actual, proposed or potential, Superior Proposal;

(4) Carbon Revolution has provided the SPAC with the material terms and conditions of the actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal (including price and form of consideration, conditions precedent, proposed deal protection arrangements and timetable) (in each case, to the extent known) and the identity of the Third Party making the actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal;

(5) Carbon Revolution has given the SPAC at least five Business Days after the date of the provision of the information referred to in clause 10.4(a)(4) to provide a matching or superior counter-proposal to the terms of the actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal; and

(6) the SPAC has not announced or otherwise formally proposed to Carbon Revolution a matching or superior counter-proposal to the terms of the actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal by the expiry of the five Business Day period in clause 10.4(a)(5).

(b) If the SPAC proposes to Carbon Revolution, or announces amendments to the Scheme or a new proposal that constitutes a matching or superior proposal to the actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal (SPAC Counterproposal) by the expiry of the five Business Day period in clause 10.4(a)(5), Carbon Revolution must procure that the Carbon Revolution Board considers the SPAC Counterproposal and if the Carbon Revolution Board, acting reasonably and in good faith, determines that the SPAC Counterproposal would provide an equivalent or superior outcome for Carbon Revolution Shareholders as a whole compared with the Competing Proposal, taking into account all of the terms and conditions of the SPAC Counterproposal, then Carbon Revolution and SPAC must use their best endeavours to agree the amendments to this deed, the Scheme and the Deed Poll (as applicable) that are reasonably necessary to reflect the SPAC Counterproposal and to implement the SPAC Counterproposal, in each case as soon as reasonably practicable, and Carbon Revolution must procure that each of the Carbon Revolution Board Members continues to recommend the Transaction (as modified by the SPAC Counterproposal) to Carbon Revolution Shareholders.

For the purposes of this clause 10.4, each successive material modification of any Competing Proposal or potential Competing Proposal will constitute a new Competing Proposal or potential Competing Proposal, and the procedures set out in this clause 10.4 must again be followed prior to any Carbon Revolution Group Member entering into any agreement,arrangement, understanding or commitment in respect of such Competing Proposal or potential Competing Proposal.

(c) Despite any other provision in this deed, a statement by Carbon Revolution or the Carbon Revolution Board to the effect that:

(1) the Carbon Revolution Board has determined that a Competing Proposal is a Superior Proposal and has commenced the matching right process set out in this clause 10.4; or

page 42

10     Exclusivity

(2) Carbon Revolution Shareholders should take no action pending the completion of the matching right process set out in this clause 10.4 (provided that Carbon Revolution uses its best endeavours to procure that the Carbon Revolution Board publicly re-affirms its recommendation in favour of the Transaction when making any such statement),

does not of itself:

(3) constitute a change, withdrawal, modification or qualification of the recommendation by the Carbon Revolution Board Members or an endorsement of a Competing Proposal;

(4) contravene this deed;

(5) give rise to an obligation to pay the Reimbursement Fee under clause 11.2; or

(6) give rise to a termination right under clause 12.1.

10.5 No current discussions regarding a Competing Proposal or SPAC Competing Transaction

Each of Carbon Revolution and the SPAC represents and warrants that, as at the date of this deed it and each of its Related Bodies Corporate:

(a) is not a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding with a Third Party entered into for the purpose of facilitating any actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal or SPAC Competing Transaction (as applicable);

(b) is not directly or indirectly participating in any discussions, negotiations or other communications, and has terminated any existing discussions, negotiations or other communications, in relation to any actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal or SPAC Competing Transaction (as applicable), or which could reasonably be expected to lead to a Competing Proposal or SPAC Competing Transaction (as applicable); and

(c) has ceased to provide or make available any non-public information to a Third Party where such information was provided for the purpose of facilitating, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Competing Proposal or SPAC Competing Transaction (as applicable).

10.6 Compliance with law

(a) If it is finally determined by a court, or the Takeovers Panel, that the agreement by the parties under this clause 10 or any part of it:

(1) constituted, or constitutes, or would constitute, a breach of the fiduciary or statutory duties of the Carbon Revolution Board;

(2) constituted, or constitutes, or would constitute, ‘unacceptable circumstances’ within the meaning of the Corporations Act; or

(3) was, or is, or would be, unlawful for any other reason,

then, to that extent (and only to that extent) Carbon Revolution or the SPAC (as applicable) will not be obliged to comply with that provision of clause 10.

(b) The parties:

page 43

10     Exclusivity

(1) must not make or cause to be made, any application to a court or the Takeovers Panel for or in relation to a determination referred to in this clause 10.6; and

(2) if any such application is made by a Third Party, use reasonable endeavours to defend or resist such application.

10.7 Provision of information

(a) Subject to clause 10.7(b), during the Exclusivity Period, Carbon Revolution must as soon as possible and in any event within two Business Days of it being disclosed or provided to a Third Party, make available to the SPAC:

(1) in the case of written materials, a copy of; and

(2) in any other case, a written statement of,

any material non-public information about the business or affairs of any member of the Carbon Revolution Group disclosed or otherwise provided to a Third Party in connection with such Third Party formulating, developing, or finalising, or assisting in the formulation, development or finalisation by that Third Party of, an actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal, which has not previously been provided to the SPAC.

(b) During the Exclusivity Period, Carbon Revolution must not, and must ensure that each of its Related Persons and Related Bodies Corporate and the Related Persons of those Related Bodies Corporate do not, directly or indirectly disclose or otherwise provide or make available any non-public information about the business or affairs of the Carbon Revolution Group to a Third Party in connection with an actual, proposed or potential Competing Proposal unless:

(1) permitted by clause 10.2; and

(2) before that information is disclosed or otherwise provided or made available to that Third Party, the Third Party has entered into a confidentiality agreement with Carbon Revolution that contains obligations on the Third Party that are on no less onerous terms in any material respect than the obligations of the SPAC under the Confidentiality Agreement.

10.8 Usual provision of information

Nothing in this clause 10 prevents Carbon Revolution from:

(a) making presentations or providing information to, engaging or negotiating the terms of any transaction with, Third Parties for the purposes of obtaining the Bridge Financing;

(b) providing any information to its Related Persons;

(c) providing any information to any Government Agency;

(b) a Competing Proposal of any kind is announced during the Exclusivity Period (whether or not such proposal is stated to be subject to any pre-conditions) and, within 12 months of the date of such announcement, the Third Party or any Associate of that Third Party:
