By accepting participation in the Plan, based on the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Participation Agreement and as evidenced by my signature below, I represent, agree and acknowledge the following:

I have been provided with the consolidated Plan document and summary description and have reviewed and had an opportunity to ask questions of the Company,

I have either consulted with my personal tax or financial planning advisor and/or lawyer regarding the legal and tax consequences of my participation in the Plan, or I knowingly decline to do so,

I will rely solely on my advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents regarding the tax consequences of my participation and, furthermore, I am solely responsible for any tax liability that may arise as a result of my participation in the Plan,

I irrevocably waive any and all rights related to severance or benefits provided in connection with my termination of employment or service under any and all prior agreements and plans sponsored or provided by the Company or any of its affiliates (including but not limited to the Participant Notice under the Atieva USA, Inc.

I find that the consideration offered to me in this Participation Agreement and the Plan is sufficient for me to waive such rights.
