This Note is being made in connection with the Payee depositing funds equal to $295,519.23 into the Maker’s trust account in order for the Maker to extend its deadline to complete a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (an “Initial Business Combination”) by one (1) additional month from November 18, 2023 to December 18, 2023 (the “Extension”).

In the event of a Liquidation, all amounts due under this Note shall be repaid in cash only from funds held outside of the Maker’s trust account if any such funds are available. In the event the Maker consummates an Initial Business Combination, this Note may be repaid, at Nabors Energy Transition Sponsor LLC’s (the “Sponsor”) discretion, (a) in cash, (b) in Conversion Warrants (as defined below), pursuant to Section 14 herein, or (c) with a combination thereof. Absent reasonable prior written notice by the Sponsor to convert any amounts due under this Note into Conversion Warrants pursuant to Section 14 herein, this Note shall become due and payable in cash at the consummation of an Initial Business Combination.

3.            Interest. No interest shall accrue or be charged by the Payee on the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

4.            Remedy for Nonpayment.

EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES MAY APPLY TO THE TERMS HEREOF, THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN THE VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS NOTE. IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE INVOLVING THIS NOTE OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, THE UNDERSIGNED PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT VENUE FOR SUCH DISPUTE SHALL LIE IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

7.            Notices.

10.           Unconditional Waiver of Liability. The Maker hereby expressly and unconditionally waives, in connection with any suit, action or proceeding brought by the Payee, any and every right it may have to (a) injunctive relief, (b) a trial by jury, (c) interpose any counterclaim therein and (d) have the same consolidated with any other or separate suit, action or proceeding. Nothing herein contained shall prevent or prohibit the Maker from instituting or maintaining a separate action against the Payee with respect to any asserted claim.

11.           Severability. Any provision contained in this Note which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibitions or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

12.           Final Agreement. This Note represents the final agreement between the parties and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties.

13.           Trust Waiver. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Payee hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) in or to any distribution of or from the trust account that holds the proceeds from the Maker’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) and the proceeds from the sale of the warrants issued in a private placement in connection with the consummation of the IPO, as described in greater detail in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-256876) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the IPO and declared effective on November 16, 2021, and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the trust account for any reason whatsoever.

(a)            Notwithstanding anything contained in this Note to the contrary, upon receiving due notification by the Maker of the anticipated consummation of an Initial Business Combination, the Payee may elect to convert a portion or all of the unpaid principal balance under this Note into warrants (the “Conversion Warrants”). The total Conversion Warrants so issued shall be equal to: (x) the portion of the principal amount of this Note being converted pursuant to this Section 14, divided by (y) the conversion price of One Dollar ($1.00), rounded up to the nearest whole number of warrants. The Conversion Warrants shall be identical to the warrants issued by the Maker in a private placement in connection with the IPO. The Conversion Warrants and their underlying securities, and any other equity security of the Maker issued or issuable with respect to the foregoing by way of a share dividend or share split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, amalgamation, consolidation or reorganization, shall be entitled to customary registration rights.

(b)            Upon any partial conversion of the principal amount of this Note, (i) such principal amount shall be so converted and such converted portion of this Note shall become fully paid and satisfied, (ii) the Payee shall surrender and deliver this Note, duly endorsed, to the Maker or such other address which the Maker shall designate against delivery of the Conversion Warrants, (iii) the Maker shall promptly deliver a new duly executed Note to the Payee in the principal amount that remains outstanding, if any, after any such conversion and (iv) in exchange for any portion of the surrendered Note, and simultaneous with the surrender of this Note, the Maker shall, at the direction of the Payee, deliver to the Payee (or its members or their respective affiliates) (the Payee, or such other persons, are known herein as the “Holder” or “Holders”) the Conversion Warrants, which shall bear such legends as are required in the opinion of legal counsel to the Maker (or by any other agreement between the Maker and the Payee) and applicable state and federal securities laws, rules and regulations.
