Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements included in this Presentation are forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this Presentation, including statements as to future results of operations and financial position, planned products and services, business strategy and plans, objectives of management for future operations of the Company, market size and growth opportunities, competitive position and technological and market trends, are forward-looking statements. Some of these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking words, including “anticipate,” “expect,” “suggests,” “plan,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimates,” “targets,” “projects,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “may,” “will,” “forecast” or other similar expressions. All forward-looking statements are based upon current estimates and forecasts and reflect the views, assumptions, expectations, and opinions of SPAC and the Company as of the date of this Presentation, and are therefore subject to a number of factors, risks and uncertainties, some of which are not currently known to SPAC or the Company. Some of these factors include, but are not limited to: the company’s success in the highly competitive automotive market, the Company’s reliance on Geely Holding, the Company’s ability to maintain the “Lotus” brand, the Company’s limited number of orders, the Company’s limited number of models, the Company’s dependency on consumers’ demand and willingness for electronic vehicles and passenger vehicles, unforeseen changes of the Company’s industry and technology, the Company’s dependency of suppliers, cost increases or disruptions of raw materials and other components , and the global shortage in the supply of semiconductor chips. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of this Presentation and the “Risk Factors” section of the proxy statement/prospectus on Form F-4 relating to the Transaction filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and other documents filed from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In light of these factors, risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this Presentation may not occur, and any estimates, assumptions, expectations, forecasts, views or opinions set forth in this Presentation should be regarded as preliminary and for illustrative purposes only and accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. SPAC and the Company assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law. Moreover, the Company operates in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, and new risks may emerge from time to time. It is not possible to predict all risks, nor assess the impact of all factors on the Company’s business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause the Company’s actual results, performance or financial condition to be materially different from the expected future results, performance of financial condition. In addition, the analyses of SPAC and the Company contained herein are not, and do not purport to be, appraisals of the securities, assets or business of the Company, SPAC or any other entity. There may be additional risks that neither SPAC nor the Company presently knows or that SPAC and the Company currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s or SPAC’s assessment as of any date subsequent to the date of this Presentation. More generally, SPAC and the Company caution you against relying on these forward-looking statements, and SPAC and the Company qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. DISCLAIMER (1/2)

| 3 Industry and Market Data This Presentation also contains information, estimates and other statistical data derived from third party sources including Oliver Wyman, LLC. Such information involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and due to the nature of the techniques and methodologies used in market research, Oliver Wyman, LLC cannot guarantee the accuracy of such information. You are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. Neither SPAC nor the Company have commissioned any of the industry publications or other reports generated by third-party providers that are referred to in this Presentation. SPAC and the Company may have supplemented such information where necessary, taking into account publicly available information about other industry participants. Presentation of Financial Data The financial information and data contained in this Presentation has not been audited in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) or prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act (“Regulation S-X”). Accordingly, such information and data may not be included in, may be adjusted in, or may be presented differently in, any proxy statement, prospectus or other report or document filed or to be filed or furnished by the Company or SPAC with the SEC. Neither SPAC nor the Company can assure you that, had the financial information and data included in this Presentation been compliant with Regulation S-X and audited in accordance with PCAOB standards, there would not be differences, which differences could be material. This Presentation includes certain financial information of the Company that has not been audited or reviewed by the Company's independent auditor. In addition, certain projections or forecasts for the Company included in this Presentation are based on such unaudited and unreviewed financial information. Upon completion of the Company auditor's review or audit of the financial information included in this Presentation, it is possible that changes to the financial information and/or projections or forecasts included in this Presentation may be necessary. Therefore, undue reliance should not be placed on such financial information, projections or forecasts. Use of Projections This Presentation contains financial forecasts for the Company with respect to certain of its financial results for the fiscal years 2023-2025 for illustrative purposes. Neither SPAC’s nor the Company’s independent auditors have audited, studied, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the projections for the purpose of their inclusion in this Presentation, and accordingly, they did not express any opinion or provide any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this Presentation. These projections are forward-looking statements and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results. The assumptions and estimates underlying the prospective financial information are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the prospective financial information. While such information and projections are necessarily speculative, SPAC and the Company believe that the preparation of prospective financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection extends from the date of preparation. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the prospective results are indicative of the future performance of the Company or that actual results will not differ materially from those presented in the prospective financial information. The inclusion of prospective financial information in this Presentation should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results contained in the prospective financial information will be achieved. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning the Company or SPAC, the Transaction or other matters and attributable to the Company or SPAC or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This Presentation also includes non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA. Such non-GAAP measures should be considered only as supplemental to, and not as superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. SPAC and the Company believe these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. SPAC and the Company believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends in and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. Management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Additionally, to the extent that forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are provided, they are presented on a non-GAAP basis without reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Additional Information In connection with the Transaction, the SPAC will be required to file a preliminary and definitive proxy statement, which may include a registration statement, and other relevant documents with the SEC. You are urged to read the proxy statement/prospectus and any other relevant documents filed with the SEC when they become available because, among other things, they will contain updates to the financial, industry and other information herein as well as important information about SPAC, the Company and the Transaction. Shareholders of SPAC will be able to obtain a free copy of the proxy statement when filed, as well as other filings containing information about SPAC, the Company and the Transaction, without charge, at the SEC’s website located at www.sec.gov. Participants in the Solicitation SPAC and the Company, and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from SPAC’s shareholders in connection with the Transaction. A list of the names of such directors and executive officers and information regarding their interests in the Transaction will be contained in the proxy statement. You may obtain free copies of these documents as described in the preceding paragraph. The definitive proxy statement will be mailed to shareholders of SPAC as of a record date to be established for voting on the Transaction when it becomes available. Participants in Solicitation SPAC, the Company and their respective directors, executive officers, other members of management, and employees, under SEC rules, may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from SPAC' shareholders in connection with the Transaction.

DISCLAIMER (2/2)

| 4 Risks Relating to Lotus Tech's Business and Industry 1. The automotive market is highly competitive, and we may not be successful in competing in this industry. 2. Our reliance on a variety of arrangements with Geely Holding, including agreements related to research and development, procurement, manufacturing, and engineering, could subject us to risks. 3. We may not succeed in continuing to maintain and strengthen our brand, and our brand and reputation could be harmed by negative publicity with respect to us, our directors, officers, employees, shareholders, peers, business partners, or our industry in general. 4. We have a limited operating history and our ability to develop, manufacture, and deliver automobiles of high quality and appeal to customers, on schedule, and on a large scale is unproven and still evolving. 5. We have not been profitable and had negative net cash flows from operations. If we do not effectively manage our cash and other liquid financial assets, execute our plan to increase profitability and obtain additional financing, we may not be able to continue as a going concern. 6. Forecasts and projections of our operating and financial results relies in large part upon assumptions and analyses developed by our management. If these assumptions or analyses prove to be incorrect, our actual operating results may be materially different from those forecasted or projected. 7. We have received a limited number of orders for Eletre, some of which may be cancelled by customers despite their deposit payment and online confirmation. 8. We currently depend on revenues generated from a limited number of vehicle models. 9. Any delays in the manufacturing and launch of the commercial production vehicles in our pipeline could have a material adverse effect on our business. 10. Our vehicles are subject to homologations and motor vehicle safety standards and the failure to acquire homologations or satisfy mandated safety standards in jurisdictions we operate would materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. 11. Our future growth is dependent on the demand for, and upon consumers’ willingness to adopt luxury electric vehicles, which is associated with consumers’ demand for automobile and luxury vehicles, and adoption of new energy vehicles. 12. Our sales depend in part on our ability to establish and maintain confidence in our business prospects among consumers, analysts and others within our industry. 13. Our industry and its technology are rapidly evolving and may be subject to unforeseen changes. Developments in alternative technologies or improvements in electric vehicles technology may materially and adversely affect the demand for our electric vehicles. 14. We are subject to risks associated with autonomous driving technology and uncertain and evolving regulations pertaining autonomous driving in jurisdictions we operate. 15. We are dependent on suppliers, many of whom are our single source suppliers for the components they supply. 16. We could experience cost increases or disruptions in supply of raw materials or other components used in our vehicles. 17. The global shortage in the supply of semiconductor chips may disrupt our operations and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. 18. We plan to expand our business and operations internationally to various jurisdictions in which we do not currently operate and where we have limited operating experience, all of which exposes us to business, regulatory, political, operational and financial risk. 19. We may be unable to adequately control the costs associated with our operations. 20. If we fail to manage our growth effectively, we may not be able to market and sell our vehicles successfully. 21. Our business plans require a significant amount of capital. In addition, our future capital needs may require us to obtain additional equity or debt financing that may dilute our shareholders or introduce covenants that may restrict our operations or our ability to pay dividends. 22. If our suppliers fail to use ethical business practices and comply with applicable laws and regulations, our brand image could be harmed due to negative publicity. 23. We may not be able to expand our physical sales network cost-efficiently. Our distribution model is different from the currently predominant distribution model for automakers, and its long-term viability is unproven. 24. Our vehicles may not perform in line with customer expectations and may contain defects. Risks Relating to Doing Business in China 1. Failure to meet the PRC government’s complex regulatory requirements on and significant oversight over our business operation could result in a material adverse change in our operations and the value of our securities. 2. We may be adversely affected by the complexity, uncertainties and changes in regulations of mainland China on automotive as well as internet-related businesses and companies. 3. The approval of and filing with the CSRC or other PRC government authorities may be required in connection with this Business Combination or our listing under laws of mainland China, and, if so required, we cannot predict whether or when we will be able to obtain such approval or complete such filing, and even if we obtain such approval, it could be rescinded. Any failure to or delay in obtaining such approval or complying with such filing requirements in relation to offering, or a rescission of such approval, could subject us to sanctions imposed by the CSRC or other PRC government authorities. 4. The PCAOB had historically been unable to inspect our auditor in relation to their audit work. 5. Our securities may be prohibited from trading in the United States under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the HFCAA, if the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely auditors located in China. The delisting of our securities, or the threat of their being delisted, may materially and adversely affect the value of your investment. 6. Additional disclosure requirements to be adopted by and regulatory scrutiny from the SEC in response to risks related to companies with substantial operations in China, which could increase our compliance costs, subject us to additional disclosure requirements, and/or suspend or terminate our future securities offerings, making capital-raising more difficult. 7. China’s M&A Rules and certain other regulations establish complex procedures for certain acquisitions of PRC companies by foreign investors, which could make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions in China. 8. Substantial uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation and implementation of newly enacted 2019 PRC Foreign Investment Law and its Implementation Rules. 9. Regulation of loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental control of currency conversion may delay or prevent us from making loans to or make additional capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business. 10. We may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our PRC subsidiaries to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have, and any limitation on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to make payments to us could have a material and adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business. RISK FACTORS (1/2)

| 5 Risks Relating to Intellectual Property and Legal Proceedings 1. We may need to defend ourselves against intellectual property right infringement, misappropriation, or other claims, which may be time -consuming and would cause us to incur substantial costs. 2. We may not be able to prevent others from unauthorized use of our intellectual property, which could harm our business and competitive position. 3. We may not be able to adequately obtain or maintain our proprietary and intellectual property rights in our data or technology. 4. As our patents may expire and may not be extended, our patent applications may not be granted, and our patent rights may be contested, circumvented, invalidated, or limited in scope, our patent rights may not protect us effectively. In particular, we may not be able to prevent others from developing or exploiting competing technologies, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. 5. In addition to patented technologies, we rely on our unpatented proprietary technologies, trade secrets, processes, and know -how. Risks Relating to LCAA and the Business Combination 1. LCAA’s current directors’ and executive officers’ affiliates own LCAA Shares that will be worthless if the Business Combination is not approved. Such interests may have influenced their decision to approve the Business Combination. 2. The process of taking a company public by means of a business combination with a special purpose acquisition company is different from taking a company public through a traditional initial public offering and may create risks for LCAA’s unaffiliated investors. 3. The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) may delay, prevent, or impose conditions on the Business Combination. 4. The Founder Shareholders agreed to vote in favor of the Business Combination, regardless of how LCAA Public Shareholders vote. 5. LCAA is dependent upon its directors and officers and their loss could adversely affect LCAA’s ability to complete the Business Combination. The foregoing summarizes certain of the general risks related to Lotus Tech and LCAA, and such list is not exhaustive .. The foregoing list has been prepared solely for purpose of assisting interested parties in making their own evaluation with respect to the Business Combination and not for any other purpose .. You should carefully consider these risks and uncertainties together with the other available information and should carry out your own diligence and consult with your own financial and legal advisors .. A more expansive description of the key risk factors is filed with the SEC as part of the Form F - 4 registration statement referred to above and in subsequent filings with the SEC, and such risk factors will be more extensive than, and may differ significantly from, the above summary ..
