These initiatives reflect our vision to lead the automotive services sector through innovation, scale, and global reach, ultimately delivering sustainable value for our shareholders and partners.”

Under the Agreement, the Company will issue an additional Note in the principal amount of $500,000 on the effectiveness date of the registration statement registering the Class A ordinary shares of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”) underlying the Notes. The Warrants are exercisable for additional Notes in an aggregate principal amount of up to $24,000,000 every 90 days following the Closing Date. The Notes are convertible into the Company’s Ordinary Shares at a conversion price determined based on the closing sale price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares at the time of conversion, subject to adjustment as provided in the Notes.
