SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED April 7, 2023

PROXY STATEMENT FOR

EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS OF

THE GROWTH FOR GOOD ACQUISITION CORPORATION

(A CAYMAN ISLANDS EXEMPTED COMPANY)

PROSPECTUS FOR

69,531,250 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OF

THE GROWTH FOR GOOD ACQUISITION CORPORATION

(AFTER ITS DOMESTICATION AS A CORPORATION INCORPORATED IN

THE STATE OF DELAWARE),

THE CONTINUING ENTITY FOLLOWING THE DOMESTICATION,

WHICH WILL BE RENAMED “ZERONOX HOLDINGS, INC.”

IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER DESCRIBED HEREIN

The board of directors of The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“G4G” and, after the Domestication as described below, “New ZeroNox”), has unanimously approved (1) the domestication of G4G as a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”); (2) the merger of G4G Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of G4G, with and into Zero Nox, Inc. (“ZeroNox”), a Wyoming corporation (the “Merger,” together with the Domestication, the “Business Combination”), with ZeroNox surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New ZeroNox, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 7, 2023, by and among G4G, Merger Sub and ZeroNox, attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A (the “Merger Agreement”), as more fully described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus; and (3) the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and documents related thereto. As a result of the Merger, G4G will change its name to “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.”

As a result of and upon the effective time of the Domestication, among other things, (1) each of the then issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of G4G (the “G4G Class A ordinary shares”), will convert automatically into one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New ZeroNox (the “New ZeroNox common stock”), (2) each of the then issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of G4G (the “G4G Class B ordinary shares”), will convert automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock (which shares are not being registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part), (3) each of the then issued and outstanding warrants of G4G (the “G4G warrants”) will convert automatically into one warrant to acquire one share of New ZeroNox common stock (the “New ZeroNox warrants”) pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, dated as of December 9, 2021 (the “Warrant Agreement”), between G4G and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), as warrant agent, (4) each of the then issued and outstanding units of G4G (the “G4G units”) will separate automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock, one-half of one New ZeroNox warrant and one New ZeroNox right and (5) each of the then issued and outstanding rights of G4G (the “G4G rights”) will convert automatically into one right to acquire one-sixteenth (1/16) of one share of New ZeroNox common stock (the “New ZeroNox rights”) upon the consummation of the business combination. Accordingly, this proxy statement/prospectus covers (1) 32,425,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock to be issued in the Domestication and (2) 13,050,000 New ZeroNox warrants to be issued in the Domestication.

At the effective time of the Merger, among other things, all outstanding shares of ZeroNox common stock, on an aggregate fully-diluted basis, including shares of ZeroNox common stock underlying options to purchase shares of ZeroNox common stock (the “ZeroNox Options”) and convertible notes of ZeroNox convertible into or exchangeable for shares of ZeroNox common stock (the “ZeroNox Convertible Notes”), outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be cancelled in exchange for (in the case of ZeroNox Options, converted to) the right to receive, or the reservation of, an aggregate of 22.5 million shares of New ZeroNox common stock (at a deemed value of $10.00 per share), representing a pre-transaction equity value of ZeroNox of $225 million (such total number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock, the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”). Specifically, each share of ZeroNox common stock as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be canceled and converted into (A) the right to receive a number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Merger Consideration by (y) the aggregate fully diluted number of shares of ZeroNox common stock (“Exchange Ratio”), and (B) the right to receive Earnout Shares (as defined below) to the extent due and issuable pursuant to the Merger Agreement. See “BCA Proposal — The Merger Agreement — Consideration — Aggregate Merger Consideration.”

Table of Contents

At the effective time of the Merger, each ZeroNox Option that is then outstanding will be converted into an option to purchase shares of New ZeroNox common stock (“New ZeroNox Options”), upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are in effect with respect to such ZeroNox Option immediately prior to the effective time, except that (a) such New ZeroNox Option will provide the right to purchase that whole number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the number of shares of ZeroNox common stock subject to such ZeroNox Option, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, and (b) the exercise price per share for each such New ZeroNox Option will be equal to the exercise price per share of such ZeroNox Option, divided by the Exchange Ratio (the exercise price per share, as so determined, being rounded down to the nearest full cent); provided, however, that the conversion of any such ZeroNox Options that are “incentive stock options” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) will be made in a manner that is intended to be consistent with Treasury Regulations Section 1.424-1, and the conversion of any such ZeroNox Options will be made in a manner such that such conversion will not constitute a “modification” of any such ZeroNox Options for purposes of Section 409A or Section 424 of the Code, as applicable. Accordingly, this proxy statement/prospectus also relates to the issuance of 1,766,550 shares of New ZeroNox common stock upon the exercise of the New ZeroNox Options following the Merger. See “BCA Proposal — The Merger Agreement — Consideration — Treatment of ZeroNox Options.”

The Merger Agreement also provides, among other things, that the existing holders of ZeroNox stock may receive an earnout payment (the “Earnout Shares”) following the closing of the Merger of up to 7,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, in three equal tranches of 2,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, subject to certain share price achievement triggers, for the period from the Closing Date until December 31, 2027. See “BCA Proposal — The Merger Agreement — Consideration — Earnout Shares.”

It is anticipated that, immediately following the Merger and related transactions, (1) existing public shareholders of G4G will own 25,300,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, representing approximately 46.7% of outstanding New ZeroNox common stock, (2) existing shareholders of ZeroNox will own 22,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, representing approximately 41.6% of outstanding New ZeroNox common stock (inclusive of shares of ZeroNox common stock issuable in respect of the ZeroNox Options and the ZeroNox Convertible Notes) and (3) the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G will collectively own 11.7% of outstanding New ZeroNox common stock (assuming the 7,125,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock converted from 6,325,000 G4G Class B ordinary shares and 800,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units held by the Sponsor were fully vested and the Sponsor forfeited 790,625 shares pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement). These percentages assume (i) that no public shareholders of G4G exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Merger and (ii) that New ZeroNox issues, or reserves in respect of ZeroNox Options and ZeroNox Convertible Notes outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger that will be converted into New ZeroNox Options, and New ZeroNox common stock, respectively, as part of the Aggregate Merger Consideration in an aggregate of 22,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement. If the actual facts are different from these assumptions, the percentage ownership retained by G4G’s existing shareholders in the combined company will be different.

The G4G units, G4G Class A ordinary shares, G4G rights and G4G warrants are currently listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “GFGDU,” “GFGD,” “GFGDR” and “GFGDW,” respectively. G4G will apply for listing, to be effective at the closing of the Business Combination, of New ZeroNox common stock and New ZeroNox warrants on the Nasdaq under the proposed symbols “ZNOX” and “ZNOXW” respectively. It is a condition of the consummation of the Business Combination described above that G4G receives confirmation from Nasdaq that the securities have been approved for listing on Nasdaq, but there can be no assurance such listing conditions will be met or that G4G will obtain such confirmation from Nasdaq. If such listing conditions are not met or if such confirmation is not obtained, the Business Combination described above will not be consummated unless the Nasdaq condition set forth in the Merger Agreement is waived by the applicable parties.

This proxy statement/prospectus provides shareholders of G4G with detailed information about the proposed Business Combination and other matters to be considered at the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders. We encourage you to read this entire document, including the Annexes and other documents referred to herein, carefully and in their entirety. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 52 of this proxy statement/prospectus.

NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES REGULATORY AGENCY HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE TRANSACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, PASSED UPON THE MERITS OR FAIRNESS OF THE MERGER OR RELATED TRANSACTIONS OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THE DISCLOSURE IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY CONSTITUTES A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

This proxy statement/prospectus is dated , 2023,

THE GROWTH FOR GOOD ACQUISITION CORPORATION

A Cayman Islands Exempted Company

12 E 49th Street, 11th Floor

New York, New York 10017

Dear The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation Shareholders:

You are cordially invited to attend the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “extraordinary general meeting”) of The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“G4G” and, after the Domestication, as described below, “New ZeroNox”), to be held a Eastern Time, on, 2023, at the offices of located at , or virtually via live webcast at , or at such other time, on such other date and at such other place to which the meeting may be adjourned. Whilst shareholders are encouraged to attend the meeting virtually, it is a requirement under Cayman Islands law for there to be a physical location of the meeting. You will be permitted to attend the extraordinary general meeting in person only to the extent consistent with, or permitted by, applicable law and directives of public health authorities.

Only shareholders who held ordinary shares of G4G at the close of business on , 2023 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting and at any adjournments thereof.

At the extraordinary general meeting, G4G shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve and adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 7, 2023 (as the same may be amended, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among G4G, G4G Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”) and Zero Nox, Inc. (“ZeroNox”), a copy of which is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A. The Merger Agreement provides for, among other things, following the Domestication of G4G to Delaware as described below, the merger of Merger Sub with and into ZeroNox (the “Merger”), with ZeroNox surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of G4G, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement as more fully described elsewhere in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

As described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, shareholders of G4G will also be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to amend by special resolution G4G’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association, effective as of immediately prior to the Domestication, to eliminate from the Amended and Restated Articles of Association the limitation that G4G may not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in G4G having net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001 or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to G4G’s initial business combination (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal”).

As a condition to the consummation of the Merger, the board of directors of G4G has unanimously approved a change of G4G’s jurisdiction of incorporation by deregistering as an exempted company by way of continuation out of the Cayman Islands and domesticating as a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Domestication” and, together with the Merger, the “Business Combination”), subject to obtaining the approval of the shareholders of G4G. As described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, shareholders of G4G will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Domestication (the “Domestication Proposal”). As a result of the consummation of the Business Combination, G4G will change its name to “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.”

As a result of and upon the effective time of the Domestication, (1) each of the then issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of G4G (the “G4G Class A ordinary shares”), will convert automatically into one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New ZeroNox (the “New ZeroNox common stock”), (2) each of the then issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of G4G (the “G4G Class B ordinary shares”), will convert automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock (which shares are not being registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part), (3) each of the then issued and outstanding warrants of G4G (the “G4G warrants”) will convert automatically into one warrant to acquire one share of New ZeroNox common stock (the “New ZeroNox warrants”) pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, dated as of December 9, 2021 (the “Warrant Agreement”), between G4G and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), as warrant agent, (4) each of the then issued and outstanding units of G4G (the “G4G units”) will separate automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock, one-half of one New ZeroNox warrant and one New ZeroNox right and (5) each of the then issued and outstanding rights of G4G (the “G4G rights”) will convert automatically into one right to acquire one-sixteenth (1/16) of one share of New ZeroNox common stock (the “New ZeroNox rights”) upon the consummation of the business combination. As used herein, “public shares” shall mean the G4G Class A ordinary shares (including those that underlie the G4G units) that were registered pursuant to the Registration Statements on Form S-1 (333-261369) and the shares of New ZeroNox common stock issued as a matter of law upon the conversion thereof on the effective date of the Domestication. For further details, see “Domestication Proposal.”

Shareholders of G4G will also be asked to consider and vote upon (1) five separate proposals to approve material differences between G4G’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (as may be amended from time to time, the “Cayman Constitutional Documents”) and the proposed certificate of incorporation and bylaws of New ZeroNox (collectively, the “Organizational Documents Proposals”), (2) a proposal to elect seven (7) directors who, upon consummation of the Business Combination, will be the directors of New ZeroNox (the “Director Election Proposal”), (3) a proposal to approve, for purposes of complying with the applicable rules of Nasdaq, the issuance of New ZeroNox common stock to the ZeroNox Shareholders pursuant to the Merger Agreement (the “Stock Issuance Proposal”), (4) a proposal to approve and adopt The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation 2023 Incentive Award Plan (the “Incentive Award Plan Proposal”) and (5) a proposal to approve the adjournment of the extraordinary general meeting to a later date or dates, for reasons including but not limited to, permitting further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for the approval of one or more proposals at the extraordinary general meeting (the “Adjournment Proposal”). The Business Combination will be consummated only if the BCA Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposals, the Director Election Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal and the Incentive Award Plan Proposal (collectively, the “Condition Precedent Proposals”) are approved at the extraordinary general meeting. Each of the Condition Precedent Proposals is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any other proposal. Each of these proposals is more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, which each shareholder is encouraged to read carefully and in its entirety.

At the effective time of the Merger, among other things, all outstanding shares of ZeroNox common stock, on an aggregate fully-diluted basis, including shares of ZeroNox common stock underlying options to purchase shares of ZeroNox common stock (the “ZeroNox Options”) and convertible notes of ZeroNox convertible into or exchangeable for shares of ZeroNox common stock (the “ZeroNox Convertible Notes”), outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be cancelled in exchange for (in the case of ZeroNox Options, converted to) the right to receive, or the reservation of, an aggregate of 22.5 million shares of New ZeroNox common stock (at a deemed value of $10.00 per share), representing a pre-transaction equity value of ZeroNox of $225 million (such total number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock, the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”). Specifically, each share of ZeroNox common stock as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be canceled and converted into (A) the right to receive a number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Merger Consideration by (y) the aggregate fully diluted number of shares of ZeroNox common stock (“Exchange Ratio”), and (B) the right to receive Earnout Shares (as defined below) to the extent due and issuable pursuant to the Merger Agreement. See “BCA Proposal — The Merger Agreement — Consideration — Aggregate Merger Consideration.”

The Merger Agreement also provides, among other things, that the existing holders of ZeroNox stock may receive an earnout payment (the “Earnout Shares”) following the closing of the Merger of up to 7,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, in three equal tranches of 2,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, subject to certain share price achievement triggers, for the period from the closing date of the Merger (the “Closing Date”) until December 31, 2027. See “BCA Proposal — The Merger Agreement — Consideration — Earnout Shares.”

In connection with the Business Combination, certain related agreements have been, or will be entered into on or prior to the Closing Date, including (i) the Sponsor Support Agreement (ii) ZeroNox Support Agreement and (iii) the Registration Rights Agreement. For additional information, see “BCA Proposal — Related Agreements” in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

Pursuant to the Cayman Constitutional Documents, a holder of public shares (a “public shareholder”), which excludes shares held by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G, may request that G4G redeem, upon commencement of the Business Combination and immediately prior to the Domestication, all or a portion of such shareholder’s public shares for cash to be paid promptly

Table of Contents

following the closing of the Business Combination. Holders of units must elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares, warrants and rights prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares, warrants and rights, or if a holder holds units registered in its own name, the holder must contact the transfer agent directly and instruct it to do so. Public shareholders may elect to redeem their public shares even if they vote “for” the BCA Proposal or any other Condition Precedent Proposal. If the Business Combination is not commenced, the public shares will be returned to the respective holder, broker or bank. If a public shareholder properly exercises its right to redeem all or a portion of the public shares that it holds and timely delivers its shares to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, then G4G will redeem, upon commencement of the Business Combination and immediately prior to the Domestication, such public shares for a per-share price, payable in cash promptly following the closing of the Business Combination, equal to the pro rata portion of the trust account established at the consummation of our initial public offering (the “trust account”), net of taxes payable, calculated as of two business days prior to the Closing Date. For illustrative purposes, as of March 31, 2023, based on fund in the trust account totaling $259,522,722.80, this would have amounted to approximately $9.94 per issued and outstanding public share. If a public shareholder exercises its redemption rights in full, then it will be electing to exchange its public shares for cash and will no longer own public shares. The redemption takes place immediately prior to the Domestication when a redeeming shareholder’s G4G Class A Ordinary Shares are canceled in exchange for the right to receive the cash consideration described above; accordingly, it is G4G ordinary shares that will be redeemed. See “Extraordinary General Meeting of G4G — Redemption Rights” in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your public shares for cash.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such public shareholder or any other person with whom such public shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its public shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares. Accordingly, if a public shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.

The Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G have agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and to waive their redemption rights in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination with respect to any ordinary shares held by them, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Sponsor Support Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2023, a copy of which is attached as Annex B to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”). The ordinary shares held by the Sponsor will be excluded from the pro rata calculation used to determine the per-share redemption price. As of the date of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and such directors and officers of G4G collectively own approximately 20% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

The Merger Agreement is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions as described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. There can be no assurance that the parties to the Merger Agreement would waive any such provision of the Merger Agreement. In addition, in no event will G4G redeem public shares in an amount that would cause New ZeroNox’s net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) to be less than $5,000,001, except in the event that its governing documents shall have been amended to remove such requirement prior to or concurrently with the Closing, which is a limitation under the Cayman Constitutional Documents that is proposed to be removed pursuant to Proposal No. 2 of this proxy statement/prospectus.

G4G is providing the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus and accompanying proxy card to G4G’s shareholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the extraordinary general meeting and at any adjournments of the extraordinary general meeting. Information about the extraordinary general meeting, the Business Combination and other related business to be considered by G4G’s shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting is included in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. Whether or not you plan to attend the extraordinary general meeting, all of G4G’s shareholders are urged to read the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and other documents referred to therein, carefully and in their entirety. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 52 of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

After careful consideration, the board of directors of G4G has unanimously approved the Business Combination and unanimously recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” adoption of the Merger Agreement, and approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination, and “FOR” all other proposals presented to G4G’s shareholders in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. When you consider the recommendation of these proposals by the board of directors of G4G, you should keep in mind that G4G’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section entitled “BCA Proposal — Interests of G4G’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination” in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus for a further discussion of these considerations.

Table of Contents

The approval of each of the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposals and the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. The BCA Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Award Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal require the affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. Under the terms of the Cayman Constitutional Documents, prior to the closing of G4G’s initial business combination, only the holders of the G4G Class B ordinary shares are entitled to vote on the election of directors to our board of directors. Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G agreed to vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Therefore, the Director Election Proposal is expected to be approved by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G at the extraordinary general meeting.

Your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the extraordinary general meeting, please vote as soon as possible by following the instructions in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus to make sure that your shares are represented at the extraordinary general meeting. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to follow the instructions provided to you by your bank, broker or other nominee to ensure that your shares are represented and voted at the extraordinary general meeting. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will be consummated only if the Condition Precedent Proposals are approved at the extraordinary general meeting. Each of the Condition Precedent Proposals is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any other proposal.

If you sign, date and return your proxy card(s) without indicating how you wish to vote, your proxy will be voted FOR each of the proposals presented at the extraordinary general meeting. If you fail to return your proxy card(s) or fail to instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote, and do not attend the extraordinary general meeting in person, the effect will be, among other things, that your shares will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the extraordinary general meeting and will not be voted. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. If you are a shareholder of record and you attend the extraordinary general meeting and wish to vote in person, you may withdraw your proxy and vote in person.

TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS, YOU MUST DEMAND IN WRITING THAT YOUR PUBLIC SHARES ARE REDEEMED FOR A PRO RATA PORTION OF THE FUNDS HELD IN THE TRUST ACCOUNT (NET OF TAXES PAYABLE) AND DELIVER YOUR SHARES TO G4G’S TRANSFER AGENT AT LEAST TWO BUSINESS DAYS PRIOR TO THE VOTE AT THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING. YOU MAY DELIVER YOUR SHARES BY EITHER DELIVERING YOUR SHARE CERTIFICATE TO THE TRANSFER AGENT OR BY DELIVERING YOUR SHARES ELECTRONICALLY USING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY’S DWAC (DEPOSIT WITHDRAWAL AT CUSTODIAN) SYSTEM. IF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION IS NOT COMMENCED, THEN THESE SHARES WILL BE RETURNED TO YOU OR YOUR ACCOUNT. IF YOU HOLD THE SHARES IN STREET NAME, YOU WILL NEED TO INSTRUCT THE ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE AT YOUR BANK OR BROKER TO WITHDRAW THE SHARES FROM YOUR ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO EXERCISE YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS.

On behalf of G4G’s board of directors, I would like to thank you for your support and look forward to the successful completion of the Business Combination.

Sincerely,

Each of Proposals No. 1 and 3 through 11 (collectively, the “Condition Precedent Proposals”) is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any other proposal set forth in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

These items of business are described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, which we encourage you to read carefully and in its entirety before voting.

Only holders of record of ordinary shares at the close of business on , 2023 are entitled to notice of and to vote and have their votes counted at the extraordinary general meeting and any adjournment of the extraordinary general meeting.

The accompanying proxy statement/prospectus and extraordinary general meeting proxy card is being provided to G4G’s shareholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the extraordinary general meeting and at any adjournment of the extraordinary general meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the extraordinary general meeting, all of G4G’s shareholders are urged to read the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and the documents referred to herein, carefully and in their entirety. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 52 of the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.

After careful consideration, the board of directors of G4G has unanimously approved the Business Combination and unanimously recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the BCA Proposal, the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal,

Table of Contents

the Domestication Proposal, and approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger Agreement, and “FOR” all other proposals presented to G4G’s shareholders in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. When you consider the recommendation of these proposals by the board of directors of G4G, you should keep in mind that G4G’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section entitled “BCA Proposal��— Interests of G4G’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination” in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus for a further discussion of these considerations.

Pursuant to the Cayman Constitutional Documents, a holder of public shares of G4G (a “public shareholder”), which excludes shares held by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G, may request that G4G redeem, upon commencement of the Business Combination and immediately prior to the Domestication, all or a portion of its public shares for cash to be paid promptly following the closing of the Business Combination. As a holder of public shares, you will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:

(i)

(a) hold public shares, or (b) if you hold public shares through units, elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares, public warrants and rights prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares;

(ii)

submit a written request to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, that G4G redeem all or a portion of your public shares for cash to be paid promptly following the closing of the Business Combination; and

(iii)

deliver your public shares to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, physically or electronically through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).

Holders must complete the procedures for electing to redeem their public shares in the manner described above prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on , 2023 (two business days before the extraordinary general meeting) in order for their shares to be redeemed.

If a public shareholder properly exercises its right to redeem all or a portion of the public shares that it holds and timely delivers its shares to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, then G4G will redeem, upon commencement of the Business Combination and immediately prior to the Domestication, such public shares for a per-share price, payable in cash promptly following the closing of the Business Combination, equal to the pro rata portion of the trust account established at the consummation of our initial public offering (the “trust account”), net of taxes payable, calculated as of two business days prior to the commencement of the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of March 31, 2023, based on fund in the trust account totaling $259,522,722.80, this would have amounted to approximately $9.94 per issued and outstanding public share. If a public shareholder exercises its redemption rights in full, then it will be electing to exchange its public shares for cash and will no longer own public shares. The redemption takes place immediately before the Domestication when a redeeming shareholder’s G4G Class A Ordinary Shares are canceled in exchange for the right to receive the cash consideration described above; accordingly, it is G4G ordinary shares that will be redeemed. See “Extraordinary General Meeting of G4G — Redemption Rights” in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your public shares for cash.

G4G Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and shareholder of G4G (the “Sponsor”), and certain directors and officers of G4G have agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and to waive their redemption rights in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination with respect to any ordinary shares held by them, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Sponsor Support Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2023, a copy of which is attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex B (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”). The ordinary shares held by the Sponsor will be excluded from the pro rata calculation used to determine the per-share redemption price.

Table of Contents

As of the date of the accompanying proxy statement/ prospectus, the Sponsor and such directors and officers of G4G collectively own approximately 20% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

The Merger Agreement is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain other closing conditions as described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. There can be no assurance that the parties to the Merger Agreement would waive any such provision of the Merger Agreement. In addition, in no event will G4G redeem public shares in an amount that would cause New ZeroNox’s net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) to be less than $5,000,001, except in the event that its governing documents shall have been amended to remove such requirement prior to or concurrently with the Closing, which is a limitation under the Cayman Constitutional Documents that is proposed to be removed pursuant to Proposal No. 2 of this proxy statement/prospectus.

The approval of each of the Domestication Proposal, Organizational Documents Proposals and the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. The BCA Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Award Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal require the affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G agreed to vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Under the terms of the Cayman Constitutional Documents, prior to the closing of G4G’s initial business combination, only the holders of the G4G Class B ordinary shares are entitled to vote on the election of directors to our board of directors. Therefore, the Director Election Proposal is expected to be approved by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G at the extraordinary general meeting.

If you sign, date and return your extraordinary general meeting proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, your proxy will be voted FOR each of the proposals presented at the extraordinary general meeting. If you fail to return your extraordinary general meeting proxy card or fail to instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote, and do not attend the extraordinary general meeting in person, the effect will be, among other things, that your shares will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the extraordinary general meeting and will not be voted. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. If you are a shareholder of record and you attend the extraordinary general meeting and wish to vote in person, you may withdraw your proxy and vote in person.

MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA

This proxy statement/prospectus includes industry and market data obtained from periodic industry publications, third-party studies and surveys, as well as from filings of public companies in our industry and internal company surveys. These sources include government and industry sources. Industry publications and surveys generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable. Although we believe the industry and market data to be reliable as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, this information could prove to be inaccurate. Industry and market data could be wrong because of the method by which sources obtained their data and because information cannot always be verified with complete certainty due to the limits on the availability and reliability of raw data, the voluntary nature of the data gathering process and other limitations and uncertainties. Each publication, study and report speaks as of its original publication date (and not as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus). Certain of these publications, studies and reports were published before the COVID-19 pandemic and therefore do not reflect any impact of COVID-19 on any specific market or globally. In addition, we do not know all of the assumptions regarding general economic conditions or growth that were used in preparing the forecasts from the sources relied upon or cited herein.

G4G shareholders are being asked to consider and vote upon, among other proposals, a proposal to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement, which G4G refers to as the “BCA Proposal” and a proposal to approve the Domestication, which G4G refers to as the “Domestication Proposal.” The Merger Agreement provides for, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into ZeroNox, with ZeroNox surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New ZeroNox, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement as more fully described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A and you are encouraged to read it in its entirety. See the section entitled “BCA Proposal” for more detail.

As a condition to the Merger, G4G will change its jurisdiction of incorporation by effecting a deregistration by way of continuation out of the Cayman Islands under the Cayman Islands Companies Act and a domestication under Section 388 of the DGCL, pursuant to which G4G’s jurisdiction of incorporation will be changed from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware. As a result of and upon the effective time of the Domestication, (1) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G Class A ordinary shares will convert automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock; (2) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G Class B ordinary shares will convert automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock; (3) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G warrants will convert automatically into one warrant to acquire one share of New ZeroNox common stock (the “New ZeroNox warrant”), pursuant to the Warrant Agreement; (4) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G units will separate automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock, one-half of one New ZeroNox warrant and one New ZeroNox right and (5) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G rights will convert automatically into one right to acquire one-sixteenth (1/16) of one share of New ZeroNox common stock (the “New ZeroNox rights”) upon the consummation of the Business Combination. See “Domestication Proposal” for additional information.

Shareholders of G4G will also be asked to consider and vote upon certain other proposals at the extraordinary general meeting. Please see “What proposals are shareholders of G4G being asked to vote upon?” below.

Proposal No. 2: a proposal to amend G4G’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association, effective as of immediately prior to the Domestication, to eliminate from the Amended and Restated Articles of Association the limitation that G4G may not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in G4G having net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001 or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to G4G’s initial business combination (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal”);

Table of Contents

G4G will hold the extraordinary general meeting to consider and vote upon these proposals. This proxy statement/prospectus contains important information about the Business Combination and the other matters to be acted upon at the extraordinary general meeting. Shareholders of G4G should read it carefully.

Table of Contents

After careful consideration, G4G’s board of directors has determined that the BCA Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, each of the Organizational Documents Proposals, the Director Election Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Award Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders, and unanimously recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” each of those proposals, if presented to the extraordinary general meeting.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of G4G’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. In addition, G4G’s officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section entitled “BCA Proposal — Interests of G4G’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination” for a further discussion of these considerations.

Q:Are the proposals conditioned on one another?

Yes. The Business Combination is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals at the extraordinary general meeting. Each of the Condition Precedent Proposals is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any other proposal.

Q:Why is G4G proposing the Business Combination?

A:	G4G was organized to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination, with one or more businesses or entities.

ZeroNox is a clean energy technology company and the leading provider of electrification products and services for the off-highway electric vehicles (“OHEVs”) market. Founded in 2017 and based in the central valley of California, ZeroNox is committed to developing and deploying energy technologies that are cleaner, higher performing, and cost effective. ZeroNox’s business contributes to three of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, namely Goal 7 – ensuring access to affordable clean energy; Goal 9 – promoting sustainable industry and infrastructure, and Goal 13, taking urgent action to combat climate change.

Based on its due diligence investigations of ZeroNox and the industry in which it operates, including the financial and other information provided by ZeroNox in the course of G4G’s due diligence investigations, the G4G board of directors (the “G4G Board”) believes that the Business Combination with ZeroNox is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders and presents an opportunity to increase shareholder value. However, there is no assurance of this. See “BCA Proposal — G4G’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Business Combination” for additional information.

Although the G4G Board believes that the Business Combination with ZeroNox presents a unique business combination opportunity and is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders, the G4G Board did consider the following uncertainties and risk and other potentially negative factors concerning the merger including, but not limited to, the following:

●

Macroeconomic Risks. Macroeconomic uncertainty and the effects it could have on the combined company’s revenues;

●

COVID-19. Uncertainties regarding the potential impacts of the COVID-19 virus, including with respect to potential operational disruptions, labor disruptions, increased costs, and impacts to demand related thereto;

●

Redemption Risk. The potential that a significant number of G4G stockholders elect to redeem their shares prior to the consummation of the merger and pursuant to G4G’s existing memorandum and articles of association, which would potentially make the merger more difficult or impossible to complete;

●

Stockholder Vote. The risk that G4G’s stockholders may fail to provide the votes necessary to effect the merger;

●

Closing Conditions. The fact that the completion of the merger is conditioned on the satisfaction of certain closing conditions that are not within G4G’s control;

Table of Contents

●

Litigation. The possibility of litigation challenging the merger or that an adverse judgment granting permanent injunctive relief could indefinitely enjoin consummation of the merger;

●

Listing Risks. The challenges associated with preparing ZeroNox, a private entity, for the applicable disclosure and listing requirements to which G4G will be subject as a publicly traded company on the Nasdaq;

●

Benefits May Not Be Achieved. The risks that the potential benefits of the merger may not be fully achieved or may not be achieved within the expected timeframe;

●

Liquidation of G4G. The risks and costs to G4G if the merger is not completed, including the risk of diverting management focus and resources from other business combination opportunities, which could result in G4G being unable to effect a business combination by the end date agreed between the parties in the merger agreement;

●

Growth Initiatives May Not be Achieved. The risk that the growth initiatives may not be fully achieved or may not be achieved within the expected timeframe;

●

Fees and Expenses. The fees and expenses associated with completing the merger; and

●

Other Risks Factors. Various other risk factors associated with the business of ZeroNox, as described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” appearing elsewhere in this proxy statement.

In addition to considering the factors described above, the G4G Board also considered that certain of the officers and directors of G4G may have interests in the business combination as individuals that are in addition to, and that may be different from, the interests of the G4G stockholders, including the matters described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Interests of G4G Directors and Officers in the Merger.” However, the G4G Board concluded that the potentially disparate interests would be mitigated because (i) these interests were disclosed in the prospectus for the IPO and would be included in this proxy statement/prospectus, (ii) these disparate interests would exist with respect to a business combination with any target company, and (iii) this business combination was structured so that the business combination may be completed even if G4G public stockholders redeem a substantial portion of the G4G Class A shares.

The G4G Board concluded that the potential benefits that it expected G4G and its shareholders to achieve as a result of the merger outweighed the potentially negative and other factors associated with the merger. Accordingly, the G4G Board unanimously determined that the merger and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, were advisable and in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders. The G4G Board realized that there can be no assurance about future results, including results considered or expected as disclosed in the foregoing reasons.

These factors are discussed in greater detail in the section titled “BCA Proposal — G4G’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Business Combination,” as well as in the sections entitled “Risk Factors — Risks Related to ZeroNox’s Business and Industry.”

Q:	What will ZeroNox Shareholders receive in return for G4G’s acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of ZeroNox?

At the effective time of the Merger, among other things, all outstanding shares of ZeroNox common stock, on an aggregate fully-diluted basis, including shares of ZeroNox common stock underlying the ZeroNox Options and the ZeroNox Convertible Notes, outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be cancelled in exchange for (in the case of ZeroNox Options, converted to) the right to receive, or the reservation of, an aggregate of 22.5 million shares of New ZeroNox common stock (at a deemed value of $10.00 per share), representing a pre-transaction equity value of ZeroNox of $225 million (such total number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock, the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”). Specifically, each share of ZeroNox common stock as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be canceled and converted into (A) the right to receive a number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Merger Consideration by (y) the aggregate fully diluted number of shares of ZeroNox common stock (“Exchange Ratio”), and (B) the right to receive Earnout Shares to the extent due and issuable pursuant to the Merger Agreement. For further details, see “BCA Proposal — The Merger Agreement — Consideration — Aggregate Merger Consideration.”

Table of Contents

effect with respect to such ZeroNox Option immediately prior to the effective time, except that (a) such New ZeroNox Option will provide the right to purchase that whole number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the number of shares of ZeroNox common stock subject to such ZeroNox Option, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, and (b) the exercise price per share for each such New ZeroNox Option will be equal to the exercise price per share of such ZeroNox Option, divided by the Exchange Ratio (the exercise price per share, as so determined, being rounded down to the nearest full cent); provided, however, that the conversion of any such ZeroNox Options that are “incentive stock options” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) will be made in a manner that is intended to be consistent with Treasury Regulations Section 1.424-1, and the conversion of any such ZeroNox Options will be made in a manner such that such conversion will not constitute a “modification” of any such ZeroNox Options for purposes of Section 409A or Section 424 of the Code, as applicable. Accordingly, this proxy statement/prospectus also relates to the issuance of 1,766,550 shares of New ZeroNox common stock upon the exercise of the New ZeroNox Options following the Merger. See “BCA Proposal — The Merger Agreement — Consideration — Treatment of ZeroNox Options.”

Q:What is the value of the consideration to be received in the Merger?

The exact value of the consideration to be received by holders of equity interests of ZeroNox at the Closing will depend on the price of G4G ordinary shares as of such time and the aggregate fully diluted number of shares of ZeroNox common stock as of such time, and will not be known with certainty until the Closing.

For informational purposes only, assuming (i) a purchase price of $225.0 million, (ii) aggregate fully diluted number of shares of ZeroNox common stock as of Closing of 20,138,742 (and a resulting Exchange Ratio of approximately 1.12) and (iii) a market price of G4G ordinary shares of $10.26 per share (based on the closing price of G4G ordinary shares on Nasdaq on March 31, 2023, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus), if the Closing had occurred on March 31, 2023, then, giving effect to the Domestication, all outstanding shares of ZeroNox common stock, on an aggregate fully-diluted basis, including shares of ZeroNox common stock underlying the ZeroNox Options and the ZeroNox Convertible Notes, outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, would have been canceled and converted into the right to receive 22.5 million shares of New ZeroNox common stock with an aggregate market value (based on the market price of G4G ordinary shares as of such date) of approximately $225.0 million.

We have provided the above calculations for informational purposes only based on the assumptions set forth above. The actual Exchange Ratio will be determined at the Closing pursuant to the formula and terms set forth in the Merger Agreement. The aggregate fully diluted number of shares of ZeroNox common stock as of Closing, and the market price of G4G ordinary shares assumed for purposes of the foregoing illustration are each subject to change, and the actual values for such inputs at the time of the Closing could result in the actual Exchange Ratio and the value of the consideration to be received by holders of equity interests in ZeroNox being more or less than the amounts reflected above. We urge you to obtain current market quotations for G4G ordinary shares.

The 25,300,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock into which the 25,300,000 G4G Class A ordinary shares collectively held by G4G’s public shareholders will automatically convert in connection with the Merger (as a direct result of the Domestication), if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had an aggregate market value of approximately $259,578,000 based upon the closing price of $10.26 per public share on the Nasdaq on March 31, 2023, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. The 12,650,000 New ZeroNox warrants into which the 12,650,000 public warrants will automatically convert in connection with the Merger (as a direct result of the Domestication), if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had an aggregate market value of approximately $948,750 based upon the closing price of $0.075 per public warrant on the Nasdaq on March 31, 2023, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. Based on the above assumed prices, the aggregate value G4G public shareholders and public warrant holders will receive with the Business Combination and related transactions is approximately $260,526,750. The 5,534,375 shares of New ZeroNox common stock into which the 5,534,375 Founder Shares held by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G will automatically convert in connection with the Merger (as a direct result of the Domestication, following the forfeiture of 790,625 Founder Shares pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement and assuming no redemptions), if unrestricted, fully vested and freely tradable, would have had an aggregate market value of approximately $56,782,688 based

upon the closing price of $10.26 per public share on the Nasdaq on March 31, 2023, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. The 4,534,375 shares of New ZeroNox common stock into which the 4,534,375 Founder Shares held by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G will automatically convert in connection with the Merger (as a direct result of the Domestication, following the forfeiture of 1,790,625 Founder Shares pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement and assuming maximum redemptions), if unrestricted, fully vested and freely tradable, would have had an aggregate market value of approximately $46,522,688 based upon the closing price of $10.26 per public share on the Nasdaq on March 31, 2023, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. The 800,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock into which the 800,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units held by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G will automatically convert in connection with the Merger (as a direct result of the Domestication), if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had an aggregate market value of approximately $8,208,000 based upon the closing price of $10.26 per public share on the Nasdaq on March 31, 2023, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. The 400,000 New ZeroNox warrants into which the 400,000 private placement warrants held by the Sponsor will automatically convert in connection with the Merger (as a direct result of the Domestication), if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had an aggregate market value of approximately $30,000 based upon the closing price of $0.075 per public warrant on the Nasdaq on March 31, 2023, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. Based on the current price, the aggregate value Sponsor and related parties will receive with the Business Combination and related transactions for the Founder Shares, private placement warrants and Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units held by the Sponsor is approximately $65,020,688 (assuming no redemptions) or $54,760,688 (assuming maximum redemptions).

Q:	What equity stake will current G4G shareholders and ZeroNox Shareholders hold in New ZeroNox immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination?

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there are 32,425,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, which includes 6,325,000 Founder Shares held by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G, 800,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying private placement units held by the Sponsor, and 25,300,000 Class A ordinary shares. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there is outstanding an aggregate of 13,050,000 warrants, which includes the 400,000 private placement warrants held by the Sponsor and 12,650,000 public warrants. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one G4G Class A ordinary share and, following the Domestication, will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one share of New ZeroNox common stock. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, 25,300,000 rights, each entitling the holder thereof to receive one-sixteenth (1/16) of one public share upon the consummation of G4G’s Business Combination, are issued and outstanding. Therefore, as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus (without giving effect to the Business Combination), the G4G fully diluted share capital would be 45,475,000.

It is anticipated that, immediately following the Merger and related transactions, (1) existing public shareholders of G4G will own 25,300,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, representing approximately 46.7% of outstanding New ZeroNox common stock, (2) existing shareholders of ZeroNox will own 22,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, representing approximately 41.6% of outstanding New ZeroNox common stock (inclusive of shares of ZeroNox common stock issuable in respect of the ZeroNox Options and the ZeroNox Convertible Notes) and (3) the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G will collectively own 11.7% of outstanding New ZeroNox common stock (assuming the 7,125,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock converted from 6,325,000 G4G Class B ordinary shares and 800,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units held by the Sponsor were fully vested and the Sponsor forfeited 790,625 shares pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement). These percentages assume (i) that no public shareholders of G4G exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Merger and (ii) that New ZeroNox issues, or reserves in respect of ZeroNox Options and ZeroNox Convertible Notes outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger that will be converted into New ZeroNox Options and New ZeroNox common stock, respectively, as part of the Aggregate Merger Consideration in an aggregate of 22,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement. If the actual facts are different from these assumptions, the percentage ownership retained by G4G’s existing shareholders in the combined company will be different.

Q:	How has the announcement of the Business Combination affected the trading price of the G4G Class A ordinary shares?

The closing prices of the (i) G4G units and G4G Class A ordinary shares as of March 6, 2023, (ii) G4G warrants as of March 7, 2023 and (iii) G4G rights as of March 3, 2023, in each case, the last trading day of such security before announcement of the execution of the Merger Agreement, were $10.30, $10.19, $0.0815 and $0.12, respectively. The closing prices of the G4G units, G4G Class A ordinary shares, G4G warrants and G4G rights as of March 31, 2023, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, were $10.40, $10.26, $0.075 and $0.18, respectively.

Q:	Will the Company obtain new financing in connection with the Business Combination?

A:	The Company is in discussion with equity facilities, strategic investors and inventory financing lenders, but the Company has not procured additional financing sources at this time.

Although there are currently no definitive agreements in place, the Company may enter into agreements where, among other things, G4G’s Sponsor or its affiliates may purchase G4G shares in open market or private transactions outside of the redemption process, for purposes of (i) meeting Nasdaq’s initial listing requirements, such as stockholder’s equity, unrestricted publicly held shares and/or market value of unrestricted publicly held shares, (ii) maintaining funds in the trust account at the time of Closing, and (iii) working capital post-Business Combination, all of which increase the likelihood that the Business Combination will close. ZeroNox may also raise capital through private equity offerings or offerings of securities convertible into its equity in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination. However, there is no assurance that ZeroNox will be able to raise sufficient capital prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. Following the closing of the Business Combination, New ZeroNox will need to raise sufficient capital or debt to sustain its operations and service its existing debt obligations. Pursuant to a letter agreement between ZeroNox and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (“Chardan”) dated March 7, 2023, Chardan has agreed to undertake reasonable efforts to negotiate a purchase agreement and related agreements pursuant to which Chardan will offer New ZeroNox a three-year standing equity facility (the “Facility”) to enable New ZeroNox to raise an aggregate amount of up to $60,000,000 from time to time by putting registered freely-tradable shares of its common

Table of Contents

stock, subject to certain conditions precedent and volume limitations. See “Material Agreement – Agreement with Chardan.” There is no assurance that New ZeroNox will be able to raise sufficient capital or debt to sustain its operations and service its existing debt obligations, or that such financing will be on terms that are favorable to the combined company. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to ZeroNox’s Business and Industry — “We will require substantial additional capital to fund our business operations in the short term and also to develop and grow our business, and we may be unable to adequately control the costs associated with our operations, and that could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our operations, including our product development or commercialization efforts” and “Risk Factors — Additional Risks Related to Ownership of New ZeroNox Common Stock Following the Business Combination and New ZeroNox Operating as a Public Company — We will need to raise additional capital through equity offerings or offerings of securities convertible into our equity. The failure to raise capital as needed could harm New ZeroNox’s business, operating results and financial condition. Any sales of securities will dilute our stockholders’ ownership interests, may reduce the value of New ZeroNox’s common stock, and may introduce covenants that will restrict our operations or our ability to pay dividends.”

Q:	Will G4G inform the public shareholders if financing sources other than those currently disclosed become available to G4G after this proxy statement/prospectus is distributed?

If alternative financing sources become available to G4G after the mailing of this proxy statement/prospectus, G4G will, as appropriate and in compliance with the securities laws, publicly disclose that fact to the public shareholders and otherwise comply with the applicable proxy and disclosure rules.

If financing sources other than those currently disclosed become available after the mailing of this proxy statement/prospectus and are disclosed by G4G to the public shareholders, will the public shareholders have an opportunity to change their votes related to the Proposals set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus and/or approve the alternative financing sources?

Prior to and at the extraordinary general meeting, the public shareholders will have the opportunity to change their votes related to the Proposals set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. After the extraordinary general meeting, the public shareholders will not have an opportunity to change their votes related to the Proposals set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. The public shareholders are only able to vote on the Proposals set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. The public shareholders may, to the extent they learn about any alternative financing source in advance of the extraordinary general meeting, make use of that information in connection with their vote on the Proposals set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus, but the public shareholders may not vote on the alternative financing sources directly. To the extent that the public shareholders learn about any alternative financing following the extraordinary general meeting, the public shareholders will not be able to make use of that information in connection with their vote on the Proposals set forth in this proxy statement/proposal. After the extraordinary general meeting, the public shareholders will not have an opportunity to change their votes related to the Business Combination and/or approve any additional financing sources that G4G or New ZeroNox secures. See “Risk Factors — Additional Risks Related to Ownership of New ZeroNox Common Stock Following the Business Combination and New ZeroNox Operating as a Public Company — We will need to raise additional capital through equity offerings or offerings of securities convertible into our equity. The failure to raise capital as needed could harm New ZeroNox’s business, operating results and financial condition. Any sales of securities will dilute our stockholders’ ownership interests, may reduce the value of New ZeroNox’s common stock, and may introduce covenants that will restrict our operations or our abilty to pay dividends.”

Q:	Why is G4G proposing the Domestication?

Our board of directors believes that there are significant advantages to us that will arise as a result of a change of G4G’s domicile to Delaware. Further, the G4G Board believes that any direct benefit that the DGCL provides to a corporation also indirectly benefits its stockholders, who are the owners of the corporation. The G4G Board believes that there are several reasons why a reincorporation in Delaware is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, including, (i) the prominence, predictability and flexibility of the DGCL, (ii) Delaware’s well-established principles of corporate governance and (iii) the increased ability for Delaware corporations to attract and retain qualified directors. Each of the foregoing are discussed in greater detail in the section entitled “Domestication Proposal — Reasons for the Domestication.”

To effect the Domestication, G4G will file an application for deregistration with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies, together with the necessary accompanying documents, and file a certificate of incorporation and a certificate of corporate domestication with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, under which G4G will be domesticated and continue as a Delaware corporation.

Table of Contents

The approval of the Domestication Proposal is a condition to the closing of the Merger under the Merger Agreement. The approval of the Domestication Proposal requires a special resolution under the Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

Q:What amendments will be made to the current constitutional documents of G4G?

The consummation of the Business Combination is conditioned, among other things, on the Domestication. Accordingly, in addition to voting on the Business Combination, G4G’s shareholders are also being asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Domestication and replace G4G’s Cayman Constitutional Documents, in each case, under the Cayman Islands Companies Act, with the Proposed Organizational Documents, in each case, under the DGCL, which differ materially from the Cayman Constitutional Documents in the following respects:

Table of Contents


	The Cayman Constitutional Documents	The Proposed Organizational Documents
Authorized Shares (Organizational Documents Proposal A)	The Cayman Constitutional Documents authorize 500,000,000 shares, consisting of 479,000,000 G4G Class A ordinary shares, 20,000,000 G4G Class B ordinary shares and 1,000,000 preference shares.	The Proposed Organizational Documents authorize shares, consisting of shares of New ZeroNox common stock and shares of New ZeroNox preferred stock.
	See paragraph 8 of the Existing Memorandum.	See Article Fourth of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation.
Authorize the Board of Directors to Issue Preferred Stock Without Stockholder Consent (Organizational Documents Proposal B)	The Cayman Constitutional Documents authorize the issuance of 1,000,000 preference shares with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the G4G Board (except (i) to the extent it may affect the ability of G4G to carry out a conversion of G4G Class B ordinary shares on the Closing Date, as contemplated by the Existing Articles, and (ii) G4G may not issue additional shares that would entitle the holders thereof to (a) receive funds from the trust account or (b) vote on any initial business combination or on any other proposal presented to shareholders prior to or in connection with the completion of G4G’s initial business combination, as specified in Article 2.2 of the Existing Articles). Accordingly, the G4G Board is empowered under the Cayman Constitutional Documents, without shareholder approval, to issue preference shares with dividend, liquidation, redemption, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of ordinary shares (subject to the limitations referred to above).	The Proposed Organizational Documents authorize the Board to issue all or any shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix for each such series such voting powers, full or limited, and such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as the Board may determine.
	See paragraph 9 of the Existing Memorandum and Articles 2 and 17 of the Existing Articles.	See Article Fifth, subsection (B) of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation.
Exclusive Forum (Organizational Documents Proposal C)	The Cayman Constitutional Documents adopt the Cayman Islands as the exclusive forum for certain shareholder litigation, unless G4G consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum.	The Proposed Organizational Documents adopt Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation.
	See Article Twelfth of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation.
Takeovers by Interested Stockholders (Organizational Documents Proposal D)	The Cayman Constitutional Documents do not provide restrictions on takeovers of G4G by a related shareholder following a business combination.	The Proposed Organizational Documents will have New ZeroNox elect not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL relating to takeovers by interested stockholders but will provide other similar restrictions regarding takeovers by interested stockholders.
	See Article Tenth of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation.
Corporate Name (Organizational Documents Proposal E)	The Cayman Constitutional Documents provide that the name of the company is “The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation”	The Proposed Organizational Documents provide that the name of the corporation will be “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.”
	See paragraph 1 of the Existing Memorandum.	See Article First of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation.

Table of Contents

	The Cayman Constitutional Documents	The Proposed Organizational Documents
Perpetual Existence (Organizational Documents Proposal E)	The Cayman Constitutional Documents provide that if G4G does not consummate a business combination (as defined in the Cayman Constitutional Documents) by June 14, 2023 (or September 14, 2023 if extended by resolution of the directors of G4G, or as may be otherwise extended, in each case in accordance with the Cayman Constitutional Documents), G4G will cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up and will redeem the public shares and liquidate G4G’s trust account.	The Proposed Organizational Documents do not include any provisions relating to New ZeroNox’s ongoing existence; the default under the DGCL will make New ZeroNox’s existence perpetual.
	See Article 36 of the Existing Articles.	Default rule under the DGCL.
Provisions Related to Status as Blank Check Company (Organizational Documents Proposal E)	The Cayman Constitutional Documents include various provisions related to G4G’s status as a blank check company prior to the consummation of a business combination.	The Proposed Organizational Documents do not include such provisions related to G4G’s status as a blank check company, which no longer will apply upon consummation of the Merger, as G4G will cease to be a blank check company at such time
	See Article 36 of the Existing Articles

Q:How will the Domestication affect my ordinary shares, warrants, rights and units?

As a result of and upon the effective time of the Domestication, (1) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G Class A ordinary shares, will convert automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock, (2) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G Class B ordinary shares, will convert automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock, (3) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G warrants will convert automatically into one New ZeroNox warrant pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, (4) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G units will separate automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock, one-half of one New ZeroNox warrant and one New ZeroNox right and, (5) each of the then issued and outstanding rights of G4G (the “G4G rights”) will convert automatically into one right to acquire one-sixteenth of one share of New ZeroNox common stock (the “New ZeroNox rights”) upon the consummation of the business combination. See “Domestication Proposal” for additional information.

Q:	What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication?

Any G4G Class A Ordinary Shares that are redeemed pursuant to the redemption rights described herein will be canceled prior to the Domestication, and will not be exchanged for New ZeroNox common stock pursuant to the Domestication. Accordingly, shareholders that exercise their redemption rights with respect to their G4G Class A Ordinary Shares are not expected to be subject to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication described below with respect to such redeemed shares.

As discussed more fully under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” it is intended that the Domestication will constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(l)(F) of the Code. Assuming that the Domestication so qualifies, and subject to the “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) rules discussed below and under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” U.S. Holders (as defined in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) will be subject to Section 367(b) of the Code and, as a result:

●

A U.S. Holder whose G4G Class A ordinary shares have a fair market value of less than $50,000 on the date of the Domestication will not recognize any gain or loss and will not be required to include any part of G4G’s earnings in income;

●

A U.S. Holder whose G4G Class A ordinary shares have a fair market value of $50,000 or more and who, on the date of the Domestication, owns (actually or constructively) less than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of G4G stock entitled to vote and less than 10% of the total value of all classes of G4G stock will generally recognize gain (but not loss) on the exchange of G4G Class A ordinary shares for New ZeroNox common stock pursuant to the Domestication. As an alternative to recognizing gain, such U.S. Holder may file an election to include in income as a deemed dividend the “all earnings and profits amount” (as defined in the Treasury Regulations under Section 367 of the Code) attributable to its G4G Class A ordinary shares provided certain other requirements are satisfied; and

Table of Contents

●

A U.S. Holder who on the date of the Domestication, owns (actually or constructively) 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of G4G stock entitled to vote or 10% or more of the total value of all classes of G4G stock will generally be required to include in income as a deemed dividend all earnings and profits amount attributable to its G4G Class A ordinary shares.

G4G does not expect to have significant cumulative earnings and profits, if any, on the date of the Domestication.

As discussed more fully under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” G4G believes that it is likely classified as a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In such case, notwithstanding the foregoing U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication, proposed Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code (which have a retroactive effective date), if finalized in their current form, generally would require a U.S. Holder to recognize gain on the exchange of G4G Class A ordinary shares or warrants for New ZeroNox common stock or warrants pursuant to the Domestication. Any such gain would be taxable income with no corresponding receipt of cash in the Domestication. The tax on any such gain would be imposed at the rate applicable to ordinary income and an interest charge would apply based on a complex set of rules. However, it is difficult to predict whether, in what form, and with what effective date, final Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code may be adopted and how any such Treasury Regulations would apply. Importantly, however, U.S. Holders that make or have made certain elections discussed further under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — PFIC Considerations — QEF Election and Mark-to-Market Election” with respect to their G4G Class A ordinary shares are generally not subject to the same gain recognition rules under the currently proposed Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code. Currently, there are no elections available with respect to G4G warrants, and the application of the PFIC rules to G4G warrants is unclear. For a more complete discussion of the potential application of the PFIC rules to U.S. Holders as a result of the Domestication, see “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

Each U.S. Holder of G4G Class A ordinary shares or warrants is urged to consult its own tax advisor concerning the application of the PFIC rules, including the proposed Treasury Regulations, to the exchange of G4G Class A ordinary shares and warrants for New ZeroNox common stock and warrants pursuant to the Domestication.

Additionally, the Domestication may cause Non-U.S. Holders (as defined in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) to become subject to U.S. federal income withholding taxes on any amounts treated as dividends paid in respect of such Non-U.S. Holder’s New ZeroNox common stock after the Domestication.

The tax consequences of the Domestication are complex and will depend on a holder’s particular circumstances. All holders are urged to consult their tax advisor regarding the tax consequences to them of the Domestication, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and Non-U.S. tax laws. For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of the Domestication, see “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

Q:Do I have redemption rights?

If you are a holder of public shares, you have the right to request that we redeem all or a portion of your public shares for cash provided that you follow the procedures and deadlines described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. Public shareholders may elect to redeem all or a portion of the public shares held by them regardless of if or how they vote in respect of the BCA Proposal. If you wish to exercise your redemption rights, please see the answer to the next question: “How do I exercise my redemption rights?”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such public shareholder or any other person with whom such public shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its public shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares. Accordingly, if a public shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.

The Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to all of the G4G ordinary shares held by them in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination. Such shares will be excluded from the pro rata calculation used to determine the per-share redemption price.

Q:How do I exercise my redemption rights?

A:	If you are a public shareholder and wish to exercise your right to redeem the public shares, you must:

(i)

(a) hold public shares, or (b) if you hold public shares through units, elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares, warrants and rights prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares;

(ii)

(iii)

deliver your public shares to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, physically or electronically through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).

The address of Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, is listed under the question “Who can help answer my questions?” below.

Public shareholders will be entitled to request that their public shares be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the amount then on deposit in the trust account calculated as of two business days prior to the commencement of the Business Combination including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us (net of taxes payable). For illustrative purposes, as of March 31, 2023, based on fund in the trust account totaling $259,522,722.80, this would have amounted to approximately $9.94 per issued and outstanding public share. However, the proceeds deposited in the trust account could become subject to the claims of G4G’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the public shareholders, regardless of whether such public shareholder votes or, if they do vote, irrespective of if they vote for or against the BCA Proposal. Therefore, the per share distribution from the trust account in such a situation may be less than originally expected due to such claims. Whether you vote, and if you do vote irrespective of how you vote, on any proposal, including the BCA Proposal, will have no impact on the amount you will receive upon exercise of your redemption rights. It is expected that the funds to be distributed to public shareholders electing to redeem their public shares will be distributed promptly after the consummation of the Business Combination.

Any request for redemption, once made by a holder of public shares, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and thereafter, with G4G’s consent, until the time the vote is taken with respect to the BCA Proposal at the extraordinary general meeting. If you deliver your shares for redemption to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, and later decide prior to the extraordinary general meeting not to elect redemption, you may request that G4G’s transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically) to you. You may make such request by contacting Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, at the phone number or address listed at the end of this section.

Any corrected or changed written exercise of redemption rights must be received by Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, prior to the vote taken on the BCA Proposal at the extraordinary general meeting. No request for redemption will be honored unless the holder’s public shares have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to Continental, G4G’s agent, at least two business days prior to the vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

If a holder of public shares properly makes a request for redemption and the public shares are delivered as described above, then, upon commencement of the Business Combination and immediately prior to the Domestication, G4G will redeem the public shares for a pro rata portion of funds deposited in the trust account, calculated as of two business days prior to the commencement of the Business Combination, to be paid promptly following the closing of the Business Combination. The redemption will take place immediately before the Domestication; accordingly, it is G4G Class A ordinary shares that will be redeemed.

Table of Contents

If you are a holder of public shares and you exercise your redemption rights, such exercise will not result in the loss of any warrants that you may hold.

Q:	If I am a holder of units, can I exercise redemption rights with respect to my units?

No. Holders of issued and outstanding units must elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares, warrants and rights prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If you hold your units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, you must notify your broker or bank that you elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares, warrants and rights, or if you hold units registered in your own name, you must contact Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, directly and instruct them to do so. You are requested to cause your public shares to be separated and delivered to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, by 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on , 2023 (two business days before the extraordinary general meeting) in order to exercise your redemption rights with respect to your public shares.

Q:	What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising my redemption rights?

It is expected that a U.S. Holder (as defined in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) that exercises its redemption rights to receive cash from the trust account in exchange for its G4G Class A Ordinary Shares will generally be treated as selling such G4G Class A Ordinary Shares resulting in the recognition of capital gain or capital loss. There may be certain circumstances, however, in which the redemption may be treated as a distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes depending on the amount of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares that such U.S. Holder owns or is deemed to own (including through the ownership of warrants). For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of an exercise of redemption rights, see “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

Because any redemptions of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares will occur immediately prior to the Domestication, holders exercising redemption rights will be subject to the tax consequences of the U.S. federal income tax rules relating to PFICs, which are discussed more fully below under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

All holders considering exercising redemption rights are urged to consult their tax advisor on the tax consequences to them of an exercise of redemption rights, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and Non-U.S. tax laws.

Q:	What happens to the funds deposited in the trust account after consummation of the Business Combination?

Following the closing of G4G’s initial public offering, a total of $253,000,000, comprised of proceeds from G4G’s initial public offering and the sale of the private placement warrants, was placed in the trust account. As of March 31, 2023, funds in the trust account totaled $259,522,722.80 and were invested in U.S. government treasury obligations with maturities of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. These funds will remain in the trust account, except for the withdrawal of interest to fund G4G’s working capital requirements, and/or to pay taxes, if any, until the earliest of (1) the completion of a business combination (including the closing of the Business Combination), (2) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Cayman Constitutional Documents to modify the substance or timing of G4G’s obligation to provide holders of our Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with G4G’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if it does not complete a business combination by June 14, 2023 (or September 14, 2023 if extended by resolution of the directors of G4G, or as may be otherwise extended, in each case in accordance with the Cayman Constitutional Documents) or with respect to any other provision relating to certain of the shareholders’ rights, and (3) the redemption of all of the public shares if G4G is unable to complete a business combination by June 14, 2023 (or September 14, 2023, or any such other extended date, as applicable), subject to applicable law.

Upon commencement of the Business Combination, the funds deposited in the trust account will be released to pay holders of G4G public shares who properly exercise their redemption rights; to pay transaction fees and expenses associated with the Business Combination; and for working capital and general corporate purposes of New ZeroNox following the Business Combination. See “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus — Sources and Uses of Funds for the Business Combination.”

Table of Contents

Q:	What happens if a substantial number of the public shareholders vote in favor of the BCA Proposal and exercise their redemption rights?

Our public shareholders are not required to vote in respect of the Business Combination in order to exercise their redemption rights. Accordingly, the Business Combination may be consummated even though the funds available from the trust account and the number of public shareholders are reduced as a result of redemptions by public shareholders.

In no event will we redeem public shares in an amount that would cause New ZeroNox’s net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) to be less than $5,000,001, except in the event that its governing documents shall have been amended to remove such requirement prior to or concurrently with the Closing, which is a limitation under the Cayman Constitutional Documents that is proposed to be removed pursuant to Proposal No. 2 of this proxy statement/prospectus.

Q:What conditions must be satisfied to complete the Business Combination?

The Merger Agreement is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions, including, among others, (i) approval by G4G’s shareholders of the Business Combination and related agreements and transactions, (ii) receipt of the ZeroNox Equityholder Approval, which was obtained and delivered to G4G on March 24, 2023 by a shareholder vote by the requisite equityholders of ZeroNox, (iii) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus forms a part, (iv) the receipt of certain regulatory approvals (including, but not limited to, approval for listing on Nasdaq of the shares of New ZeroNox common stock to be issued in connection with the Merger), and (v) the absence of any injunctions.

Other conditions to ZeroNox’s obligations to consummate the Merger include, among others, that as of the Closing, the Domestication has been completed.

For more information about conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination, see “BCA Proposal — The Merger Agreement.”

Q:When do you expect the Business Combination to be completed?

It is currently expected that the Business Combination will be consummated in the second half of 2023. This date depends, among other things, on the approval of the proposals to be put to G4G shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting. However, such meetings could be adjourned if the Adjournment Proposal is adopted at the extraordinary general meeting, and G4G elects to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for the approval of one or more proposals at the extraordinary general meeting. For a description of the conditions for the completion of the Business Combination, see “BCA Proposal — The Merger Agreement.”

Q:	What happens if the Business Combination is not consummated?

G4G will not complete the Domestication to Delaware unless all other conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination have been satisfied or waived by the parties in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. If G4G is not able to complete the Business Combination with ZeroNox by the Liquidation Date and is not able to complete another business combination by such date, in each case, as such date may be extended pursuant to the Cayman Constitutional Documents, G4G will: (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses and which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law; and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

Table of Contents

Q:	Do I have appraisal or dissenters’ rights in connection with the proposed Business Combination and the proposed Domestication?

A:	Neither G4G shareholders nor G4G warrant holders have appraisal or dissenters’ rights in connection with the Business Combination or the Domestication under the Cayman Islands Companies Act or under the DGCL.

Q:	What do I need to do now?

G4G urges you to read this proxy statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and the documents referred to herein, carefully and in their entirety and to consider how the Business Combination will affect you as a shareholder. G4G’s shareholders should then vote as soon as possible in accordance with the instructions provided in this proxy statement/prospectus and on the enclosed proxy card.

Q:	How do I vote?

If you are a holder of record of ordinary shares on the record date for the extraordinary general meeting, you may vote in person (including virtually) at the extraordinary general meeting, or by submitting a proxy for the extraordinary general meeting. You may submit your proxy by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card, in the accompanying pre-addressed postage-paid envelope. Pursuant to Article 13 of the Existing Articles, the form of appointment of a proxy and any accompanying authority (or an electronic record of the same) must be received by G4G not less than 48 hours before the extraordinary general meeting. If you hold your shares in “street name,” which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or nominee, you should contact your broker, bank or nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. In this regard, you must provide the broker, bank or nominee with instructions on how to vote your shares or, if you wish to virtually attend the extraordinary general meeting and vote in person, obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank or nominee.

Q:	If my shares are held in “street name,” will my broker, bank or nominee automatically vote my shares for me?

No. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the “beneficial holder” of the shares held for you in what is known as “street name.” If this is the case, this proxy statement/prospectus may have been forwarded to you by your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, or its agent, and you may need to obtain a proxy form from the institution that holds your shares and follow the instructions included on that form regarding how to instruct your broker, bank or nominee as to how to vote your shares. Under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares with respect to non-discretionary matters unless you provide instructions on how to vote in accordance with the information and procedures provided to you by your broker, bank, or nominee. We believe all the proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary and therefore your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares without your instruction. Your bank, broker, or other nominee can vote your shares only if you provide instructions on how to vote. As the beneficial holder, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee as to how to vote your shares and you should instruct your broker to vote your shares in accordance with directions you provide. If you do not provide voting instructions to your broker on a particular proposal on which your broker does not have discretionary authority to vote, your shares will not be voted on that proposal. This is called a “broker non-vote.” A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

Q:	When and where will the extraordinary general meeting be held?

The extraordinary general meeting will be held at , Eastern Time, on , 2023 at the offices of located at , or virtually via live webcast at , or such other date, time and place to which such meeting may be adjourned or postponed, to consider and vote upon the proposals. While shareholders are encouraged to attend the meeting virtually, it is a requirement under Cayman Islands law for there to be a physical location of the meeting. You will be permitted to attend the extraordinary general meeting in person only to the extent consistent with, or permitted by, applicable law and directives of public health authorities.

Q:Who is entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting?

G4G has fixed , 2023 as the record date for the extraordinary general meeting. If you were a shareholder of G4G at the close of business on the record date, you are entitled to vote on matters that come before the extraordinary general meeting. However, a shareholder may only vote his or her shares if he or she is present in person (including virtually) or is represented by proxy at the extraordinary general meeting.

Q:	How many votes do I have?

G4G shareholders are entitled to one vote at the extraordinary general meeting for each ordinary share held of record as of the record date. The Sponsor, the directors and officers of G4G or their respective affiliates who held G4G shares prior to the initial public offering of G4G (“G4G initial shareholders”) have ten votes for every share they hold on the Domestication Proposal. As of the close of business on the record date for the extraordinary general meeting, there were ordinary shares issued and outstanding, of which were issued and outstanding public shares.

Q:	What constitutes a quorum?

A quorum of G4G shareholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present at the extraordinary general meeting if the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting are represented in person or by proxy. As of the record date for the extraordinary general meeting, ordinary shares would be required to achieve a quorum.

Q:	What vote is required to approve each proposal at the extraordinary general meeting?

A:	The following votes are required for each proposal at the extraordinary general meeting:

(i)

BCA Proposal: The approval of the BCA Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

(ii)

Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal: The approval of the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under the Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

Table of Contents

(iii)

Domestication Proposal: The approval of the Domestication Proposal requires a special resolution under the Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

(iv)

Organizational Documents Proposals: The separate approval of each of the Organizational Documents Proposals requires a special resolution under the Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

(v)

Director Election Proposal: The approval of the Director Election Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

(vi)

Stock Issuance Proposal: The approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

(vii)

Incentive Award Plan Proposal: The approval of the Incentive Award Plan Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

(viii)

Adjournment Proposal: The approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

Q:	What are the recommendations of the G4G Board?

The G4G Board believes that the BCA Proposal and the other proposals to be presented at the extraordinary general meeting are in the best interest of G4G’s shareholders, and unanimously recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” the BCA Proposal, “FOR” the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, “FOR” the Domestication Proposal, “FOR” each of the separate Organizational Documents Proposals, “FOR” the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the Incentive Award Plan Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, in each case, if presented to the extraordinary general meeting.

Q:How does the Sponsor intend to vote their shares?

Unlike some other blank check companies in which the initial shareholders agree to vote their shares in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the public shareholders in connection with an initial business combination, the Sponsor and all of its directors and officers have agreed to vote all the Founder Shares and any other public shares they may hold in favor of all the proposals being presented at the extraordinary general meeting. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and G4G’s directors and officers collectively own approximately 20% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that the Sponsor, the existing shareholders of ZeroNox or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors, or respective affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. The purpose of such share purchases and other transactions would be to (x) increase the likelihood of approving the Condition Precedent Proposals and (y) limit the number of public shares electing to redeem, including to satisfy any redemption threshold.

Entering into any such arrangements may have a depressive effect on G4G’s ordinary shares (e.g., by giving an investor or holder the ability to effectively purchase shares at a price lower than market, such investor or holder may therefore become more likely to sell the shares he or she owns, either at or prior to the Business Combination). If such transactions are effected, the consequence could be to cause the Business Combination to be consummated in circumstances where such consummation could not otherwise occur. Purchases of shares by the persons described above would allow them to exert more influence over the approval of the proposals to be presented at the extraordinary general meeting and would likely increase the chances that such proposals would be approved. G4G will file or submit a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose any material arrangements entered into or significant purchases made by any of the aforementioned persons that would affect the vote on the proposals to be put to the extraordinary general meeting or the redemption threshold. Any such report will include descriptions of any arrangements entered into or significant purchases by any of the aforementioned persons.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of G4G’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. In addition, G4G’s officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section entitled “BCA Proposal — Interests of G4G’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination” for a further discussion of these considerations.

Q:What happens if I sell my G4G ordinary shares before the extraordinary general meeting?

The record date for the extraordinary general meeting is earlier than the date of the extraordinary general meeting and earlier than the date that the Business Combination is expected to be completed. If you transfer your public shares and/or public warrants after the applicable record date, but before the extraordinary general meeting, unless you grant a proxy to the transferee, you will retain your right to vote at such extraordinary general meeting, but the transferee, and not you, will have the ability to redeem such shares (if done so on a timely basis).

Q:	Who is G4G’s sponsor?

A:	G4G’s sponsor is G4G Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The Sponsor currently owns 6,325,000 Founder Shares. Yana Watson Kakar, Rahul Kakar and David Birnbaum are the managing members of the Sponsor.

The parties do not believe that any of the above facts or relationships regarding the Sponsor would, by themselves, subject a business combination to regulatory review, including review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”), nor do the parties believe that if such a review were conceivable that, based solely on such facts or relationships, such business combination ultimately would be prohibited.

However, if a business combination were to become subject to regulatory review and approval requirements, including pursuant to foreign investment regulations and review by governmental entities such as CFIUS, such business combination may be delayed or ultimately prohibited. For more information, see the section entitled “Risk Factors — G4G may not be able to complete an initial business combination with certain potential target companies if a proposed transaction with the target company may be subject to review or approval by regulatory authorities pursuant to certain U.S. or foreign laws or regulations.”

Q:May I change my vote after I have mailed my signed proxy card(s)?

Yes. Shareholders may send later-dated, signed proxy card(s) to G4G at G4G’s address set forth below so that such proxy card(s) received by G4G prior to the vote at the extraordinary general meeting (which is scheduled to take place on , 2023) or virtually attend the extraordinary general meeting, in person and vote. Shareholders and public warrant holders also may revoke their proxy by sending a notice of revocation to G4G, which must be received by G4G at least 48 hours prior to the vote at the extraordinary general meeting. However, if your shares are held in “street name” by your broker, bank or another nominee, you must contact your broker, bank or other nominee to change your vote.

Q:	What happens if I fail to take any action with respect to the extraordinary general meeting?

If you fail to take any action with respect to the extraordinary general meeting and the Business Combination is approved by shareholders and the Business Combination is consummated, you will become a stockholder or warrant holder of New ZeroNox. If you fail to take any action with respect to the extraordinary general meeting and the Business Combination is not approved, you will remain a shareholder or warrant holder of G4G. However, if you fail to vote with respect to the extraordinary general meeting, you will nonetheless be able to elect to redeem your public shares in connection with the Business Combination (if you do so on a timely basis).

Q:	What should I do with my share certificates, warrant certificates or unit certificates?

A:	Our shareholders who exercise their redemption rights must deliver (either physically or electronically) their share certificates to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, prior to the extraordinary general meeting.

Our warrant holders should not submit the certificates relating to their warrants. Public shareholders who do not elect to have their public shares redeemed for the pro rata share of the trust account should not submit the certificates relating to their public shares.

Upon the Domestication, holders of G4G units, Class A ordinary shares, Class B ordinary shares and warrants will receive shares of New ZeroNox common stock and New ZeroNox warrants, as the case may be, without needing to take any action and, accordingly, such holders should not submit any certificates relating to their units, Class A ordinary shares (unless such holder elects to redeem the public shares in accordance with the procedures set forth above), Class B ordinary shares or warrants.

Q:What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

Shareholders may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this proxy statement/prospectus and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a holder of record and your shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card for each applicable meeting. Please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive in order to cast a vote with respect to all of your ordinary shares.

Q:	Who will solicit and pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the extraordinary general meeting?

G4G will pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the extraordinary general meeting. G4G has engaged Morrow Sodali LLC (“Morrow”) to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the extraordinary general meeting. G4G has agreed to pay Morrow a fee of $30,000, plus disbursements. G4G will also reimburse banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries representing beneficial owners of G4G Class A ordinary shares for their expenses in forwarding soliciting materials to beneficial owners of G4G Class A ordinary shares and in obtaining voting instructions from those owners. G4G’s directors and officers may also solicit proxies by telephone, by facsimile, by mail, on the Internet or in person. They will not be paid any additional amounts for soliciting proxies.

Q:	Where can I find the voting results of the extraordinary general meeting?

A:	The preliminary voting results will be expected to be announced at the extraordinary general meeting. G4G will publish final voting results of the extraordinary general meeting in a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days after the extraordinary general meeting.

The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation is a blank check company incorporated on July 2, 2021, as a Cayman Islands exempted company, for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. G4G has neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenue to date. Based on G4G’s business activities, it is a “shell company” as defined under the Exchange Act because it has no operations and nominal assets consisting almost entirely of cash.

On December 14, 2021, G4G consummated its initial public offering of its units, with each unit consisting of one G4G Class A ordinary share, one-half of one public warrant and one G4G right entitling the holder thereof to receive one-sixteenth of one share of G4G Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of G4G’s initial business combination. Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, G4G completed the sale of 800,000 private placement units at a purchase price of $10.00 per private placement unit to the Sponsor generating gross proceeds to G4G of $8.0 million.

Following the closing of G4G’s initial public offering, a total of $253.0 million ($10.00 per unit) of the net proceeds from its initial public offering and the sale of the private placement warrants was placed in the trust account. The proceeds held in the trust account may be invested by the trustee only in U.S. government treasury obligations with maturities of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. As of March 31, 2023, funds in the trust account totaled $259,522,722.80. These funds will remain in the trust account, except for the withdrawal of interest to fund G4G’s working capital requirements, and/or to pay taxes, if any, until the earliest of (1) the completion of a business combination (including the closing of the Business Combination), (2) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Cayman Constitutional Documents to modify the substance or timing of G4G’s obligation to provide holders of our Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with G4G’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if it does not complete a business combination by June 14, 2023 (or September 14, 2023 if extended by resolution of the directors of G4G, or as may be otherwise extended, in each case in accordance with the Cayman Constitutional Documents) or with respect to any other provision relating to certain of the shareholders’ rights, and (3) the redemption of all of the public shares if G4G is unable to complete a business combination by June 14, 2023 (or September 14, 2023, or any such other extended date, as applicable), subject to applicable law.

Proposals to be Put to the Shareholders of G4G at the Extraordinary General Meeting

The following is a summary of the proposals to be put to the extraordinary general meeting of G4G and certain transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Each of the proposals below, except the Adjournment Proposal, is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any other proposal set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will be consummated only if the Condition Precedent Proposals are approved at the extraordinary general meeting.

BCA Proposal

As discussed in this proxy statement/prospectus, G4G is asking its shareholders to approve by ordinary resolution and adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 7, 2023, by and among G4G, Merger Sub and ZeroNox (the “Merger Agreement”), a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A. The Merger Agreement provides for, among other things, following the Domestication of G4G to Delaware as described below (including the change of G4G’s name to “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.”), the merger of Merger Sub with and into ZeroNox (the “Merger”), with ZeroNox surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New ZeroNox, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement as more fully described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. After consideration of the factors identified and discussed in the section entitled “BCA Proposal — G4G’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Business Combination,” The G4G Board concluded that the Business Combination met all of the requirements disclosed in the prospectus for G4G’s initial public offering, including that the business of ZeroNox and its subsidiaries had a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in trust (net of amounts disbursed to management for working capital purposes and excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount held in trust). For more information about the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, see “BCA Proposal.”

Aggregate Merger Consideration

At the effective time of the Merger, among other things, all outstanding shares of ZeroNox common stock, on an aggregate fully-diluted basis, including shares of ZeroNox common stock underlying the ZeroNox Options and the ZeroNox Convertible Notes, outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be cancelled in exchange for (in the case of ZeroNox Options, converted to) the right to receive, or the reservation of, an aggregate of 22.5 million shares of New ZeroNox common stock (at a deemed value of $10.00 per share), representing a pre-transaction equity value of ZeroNox of $225 million (such total number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock, the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”). Specifically, each share of ZeroNox common stock as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be canceled and converted into (A) the right to receive a number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Merger Consideration by (y) the aggregate fully diluted number of shares of ZeroNox common stock (“Exchange Ratio”), and (B) the right to receive Earnout Shares to the extent due and issuable pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal

As discussed in this proxy statement/prospectus, G4G will ask its shareholders to approve by special resolution the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal. The Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, if approved, will amend G4G’s Existing Articles, effective as of immediately prior to the Domestication, to eliminate from the Existing Articles the limitation that G4G may not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in G4G having net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001 or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to G4G’s initial business combination (the “Redemption Limitation”) in order to allow the Company to redeem public shares irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation. For additional information, see “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal.”

Domestication Proposal

As discussed in this proxy statement/prospectus, G4G will ask its shareholders to approve by special resolution the Domestication Proposal. The Domestication Proposal, if approved, will authorize a change of G4G’s jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware. Accordingly, while G4G is currently governed by the Cayman Islands Companies Act, upon the Domestication, New ZeroNox will be governed by the DGCL. As a condition to closing the Business Combination, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the board of directors of G4G has unanimously approved the Domestication Proposal. There are differences between Cayman Islands corporate law and Delaware corporate law as well as the Cayman Constitutional Documents and

Table of Contents

the Proposed Organizational Documents. Accordingly, G4G encourages shareholders to carefully review the information in “Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights.”

As a result of and upon the effective time of the Domestication, (1) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G Class A ordinary shares will convert automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock; (2) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G Class B ordinary shares will convert automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock; (3) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G warrants will convert automatically into one warrant to acquire one share of New ZeroNox common stock (the “New ZeroNox warrant”), pursuant to the Warrant Agreement; (4) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G units will separate automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock, one-half of one New ZeroNox warrant and one New ZeroNox right and (5) each of the then issued and outstanding rights of G4G rights will convert automatically into one right to acquire one-sixteenth (1/16) of one share of New ZeroNox common stock (the “New ZeroNox rights”) upon the consummation of the Business Combination. See “Domestication Proposal” for additional information.

Organizational Documents Proposals

If the BCA Proposal and the Domestication Proposal are approved, G4G will ask its shareholders to approve by special resolution five separate proposals (collectively, the “Organizational Documents Proposals”) in connection with the replacement of the Cayman Constitutional Documents with the Proposed Organizational Documents. The G4G Board has unanimously approved each of the Organizational Documents Proposals and believes such proposals are necessary to adequately address the needs of New ZeroNox after the Business Combination. Approval of each of the Organizational Documents Proposals is a condition to the consummation of the Business Combination. A brief summary of each of the Organizational Documents Proposals is set forth below. These summaries are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the Proposed Organizational Documents.

(A) Organizational Documents Proposal A — to authorize the change in the authorized share capital of G4G from $50,000 divided into 479,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “G4G Class A ordinary shares”), 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B ordinary shares” and, together with the Class A ordinary shares, the “ordinary shares”), and 1,000,000 preference shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “G4G Preference Shares”), to shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New ZeroNox (the “New ZeroNox common stock”) and shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New ZeroNox (the “New ZeroNox preferred stock”);

(B) Organizational Documents Proposal B — to authorize the board of directors of New ZeroNox to issue any or all shares of New ZeroNox preferred stock in one or more classes or series, with such terms and conditions as may be expressly determined by New ZeroNox’s board of directors and as may be permitted by the DGCL;

(C) Organizational Documents Proposal C — to authorize the adoption of Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation;

(D) Organizational Documents Proposal D — to authorize the election not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL and, instead, be governed by a provision substantially similar to Section 203 of the DGCL; and

(E) Organizational Documents Proposal E — to authorize all other changes in connection with the amendment and replacement of Cayman Constitutional Documents with the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and Proposed Bylaws in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination (copies of which attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D and Annex E, respectively), including (1) changing the corporate name from “The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation” to “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.,” (2) making New ZeroNox’s corporate existence perpetual and (3) removing certain provisions related to G4G’s status as a blank check company that will no longer be applicable upon consummation of the Business Combination, all of which the G4G Board believes is necessary to adequately address the needs of New ZeroNox after the Business Combination.

The Proposed Organizational Documents differ in certain material respects from the Cayman Constitutional Documents and G4G encourages shareholders to carefully review the information set out in the section entitled “Organizational Documents Proposals” and the full text of the Proposed Organizational Documents of New ZeroNox.

Director Election Proposal

Assuming the BCA Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, each of the Organizational Documents Proposals, the Stock Issuance Proposal and the Incentive Award Plan Proposal, G4G’s shareholders are also being asked to approve by ordinary resolution the Director Election Proposal. Under the terms of the Cayman Constitutional Documents, prior to the closing of G4G’s initial business combination,

Table of Contents

only the holders of the G4G Class B ordinary shares are entitled to vote on the election of directors to our board of directors. Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G agreed to vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Therefore, the Director Election Proposal is expected to be approved by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G at the extraordinary general meeting. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the Board will consist of seven (7) directors, including (A) two (2) individuals to be designated by the Sponsor as directors, (B) four (4) individuals to be designated by ZeroNox as directors and (C) one (1) independent director designated mutually by the Sponsor and ZeroNox, as listed in the section titled “Management of New ZeroNox Following the Business Combination,” subject to Nasdaq requirements. For additional information on the proposed directors, see “Director Election Proposal.”

Stock Issuance Proposal

Assuming the BCA Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, each of the Organizational Documents Proposals, the Director Election Proposal and the Incentive Award Plan Proposal are approved, G4G’s shareholders are also being asked to approve by ordinary resolution the Stock Issuance Proposal.

Incentive Award Plan Proposal

Assuming the BCA Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposals, the Director Election Proposal and the Stock Issuance Proposal are approved, G4G’s shareholders are also being asked to approve by ordinary resolution the 2023 Plan, in order to comply with the applicable rules of Nasdaq and the Internal Revenue Code. For additional information, see “Incentive Award Plan Proposal.”

Adjournment Proposal

If, based on the tabulated vote, there are not sufficient votes at the time of the extraordinary general meeting to authorize G4G to consummate the Business Combination (because any of the Condition Precedent Proposals have not been approved), the G4G Board may submit a proposal to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies. For additional information, see “Adjournment Proposal.”

Ownership of New ZeroNox following Business Combination

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there are 32,425,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, which includes the 6,325,000 Founder Shares held by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G, 800,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units held by the Sponsor, and 25,300,000 Class A ordinary shares. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there is outstanding an aggregate of 13,050,000 warrants, which includes the 400,000 private placement warrants held by the Sponsor and 12,650,000 public warrants. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one G4G Class A ordinary share and, following the Domestication, will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one share of New ZeroNox common stock. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, 25,300,000 rights, each entitling the holder thereof to receive one-sixteenth (1/16) of one public share upon the consummation of G4G’s Business Combination, are issued and outstanding. Therefore, as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus (without giving effect to the Business Combination), the G4G fully diluted share capital would be 45,475,000.

It is anticipated that, immediately following the Merger and related transactions, (1) existing public shareholders of G4G will own 25,300,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, representing approximately 46.7% of outstanding New ZeroNox common stock, (2) existing shareholders of ZeroNox will own 22,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, representing approximately 41.6% of outstanding New ZeroNox common stock (inclusive of shares of ZeroNox common stock issuable in respect of the ZeroNox Options and the ZeroNox Convertible Notes) and (3) the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G will collectively own 11.7% of outstanding New ZeroNox common stock (assuming the 7,125,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock converted from 6,325,000 G4G Class B ordinary shares and 800,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units held by the Sponsor were fully vested and the Sponsor forfeited 790,625 shares pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement). These percentages assume (i) that no public shareholders of G4G exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Merger and (ii) that New ZeroNox issues, or reserves in respect of ZeroNox Options and ZeroNox Convertible Notes outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger that will be converted into New ZeroNox Options and New ZeroNox common stock, respectively, as part of the Aggregate Merger Consideration in an aggregate of 22,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement. If the actual facts are different from these assumptions, the percentage ownership retained by G4G’s existing shareholders in the combined company will be different.

Date, Time and Place of Extraordinary General Meeting of G4G’s Shareholders

The extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of G4G will be held at , Eastern Time, on , 2023, at the offices of located at , or virtually via live webcast at , to consider and vote upon the proposals to be put to the extraordinary general meeting, including if necessary, the Adjournment Proposal, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the extraordinary general meeting, any of the Condition Precedent Proposals have not been approved.

While shareholders are encouraged to attend the meeting virtually, it is a requirement under Cayman Islands law for there to be a physical location of the meeting. You will be permitted to attend the extraordinary general meeting in person only to the extent consistent with, or permitted by, applicable law and directives of public health authorities.

Voting Power; Record Date

G4G shareholders will be entitled to vote or direct votes to be cast at the extraordinary general meeting, if they owned ordinary shares at the close of business on , 2023, which is the “record date” for the extraordinary general meeting. Shareholders will have one vote for each ordinary share owned at the close of business on the record date. G4G initial shareholders have ten votes for every share they hold on the Domestication Proposal. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. As of the close of business on the record date, there were ordinary shares issued and outstanding, of which were issued and outstanding public shares.

Quorum and Vote of G4G Shareholders

A quorum of G4G shareholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present at the G4G extraordinary general meeting if the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting are represented in person or by proxy. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

Table of Contents

As of the record date for the extraordinary general meeting, ordinary shares would be required to achieve a quorum.

The Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G have agreed to vote all of their ordinary shares in favor of the proposals being presented at the extraordinary general meeting. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and such directors and officers of G4G collectively own approximately 20% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

The proposals presented at the extraordinary general meeting require the following votes:

●

Domestication Proposal: The approval of the Domestication Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

●

Organizational Documents Proposals: The separate approval of each of the Organizational Documents Proposals requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting.

●

Redemption Rights

Pursuant to the Cayman Constitutional Documents, a public shareholder may request that G4G redeem, upon commencement of the Business Combination and immediately prior to the Domestication, all or a portion of its public shares for cash to be paid promptly following the closing of the Business Combination. As a holder of public shares, you will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:

●

(a) hold public shares or (b) if you hold public shares through units, elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares, warrants and rights prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares;

●

submit a written request to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), G4G’s transfer agent, that G4G redeem all or a portion of your public shares for cash to be paid promptly following the closing of the Business Combination; and

Table of Contents

●

deliver your public shares to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.

Holders of units must elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares, warrants and rights prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares, warrants and rights, or if a holder holds units registered in its own name, the holder must contact Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, directly and instruct them to do so. Public shareholders may elect to redeem all or a portion of the public shares held by them regardless of if or how they vote in respect of the BCA Proposal. If the Business Combination is not commenced, the public shares will be returned to the respective holder, broker or bank. If a public shareholder properly exercises its right to redeem all or a portion of the public shares that it holds and timely delivers its shares to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, then G4G will redeem, upon commencement of the Business Combination and immediately prior to the Domestication, such public shares for a per-share price, payable in cash promptly following the closing of the Business Combination, equal to the pro rata portion of the trust account (net of taxes payable), calculated as of two business days prior to the commencement of the Business Combination. For illustrative purposes, as of March 31, 2023, based on fund in the trust account totaling $259,522,722.80, this would have amounted to approximately $9.94 per issued and outstanding public share. If a public shareholder exercises its redemption rights in full, then it will be electing to exchange its public shares for cash and will no longer own public shares. The redemption takes place immediately before the Domestication when a redeeming shareholder’s G4G Class A ordinary shares are canceled in exchange for the right to receive the cash consideration described above; accordingly, it is G4G ordinary shares that will be redeemed. See “Extraordinary General Meeting of G4G — Redemption Rights” in this proxy statement/prospectus for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your public shares for cash.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such public shareholder or any other person with whom such public shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its public shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares. Accordingly, if a public shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.

Holders of the warrants will not have redemption rights with respect to the warrants.

Appraisal or Dissenters’ Rights

Neither G4G shareholders nor G4G warrant holders have appraisal or dissenters’ rights in connection with the Business Combination or the Domestication under the Cayman Islands Companies Act or under the DGCL.

Proxy Solicitation

Proxies may be solicited by mail, telephone or in person. G4G has engaged Morrow Sodali LLC to assist in the solicitation of proxies.

If a shareholder grants a proxy, it may still vote in person if it revokes its proxy before the extraordinary general meeting. A shareholder also may change its vote by submitting a later-dated proxy as described in the section entitled “Extraordinary General Meeting of G4G — Revoking Your Proxy.”

Interests of G4G’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination

When you consider the recommendation of the G4G Board in favor of approval of the proposals in this proxy statement/prospectus, you should keep in mind that the Sponsor and G4G’s directors and executive officers have interests in the Business Combination that may be different from, or in addition to, those of G4G shareholders and warrant holders generally. The G4G Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in approving the terms of the Business Combination and in recommending to G4G’s shareholders that they vote to approve the Business Combination. See the section entitled “BCA Proposal — Interests of G4G’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination” for a discussion of these considerations.

Table of Contents

Interests of ZeroNox’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination

When you consider the recommendation of the G4G Board in favor of approval of the BCA Proposal, you should keep in mind that ZeroNox’s directors and executive officers may have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of ZeroNox’s shareholders generally. See the section entitled “BCA Proposal — Interests of ZeroNox’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination” for a discussion of these considerations.

Board of Directors following the Business Combination

Upon completion of the Business Combination, New ZeroNox’s board of directors will be comprised of seven (7) directors, including (A) two (2) individuals to be designated by the Sponsor as directors, (B) four (4) individuals to be designated by ZeroNox as directors and (C) one (1) independent director designated mutually by the Sponsor and ZeroNox. Please see the section entitled “Management of New ZeroNox After the Business Combination” for additional information.

Recommendation to Shareholders of G4G

The G4G Board believes that the BCA Proposal and the other proposals to be presented at the extraordinary general meeting are in the best interest of G4G’s shareholders and unanimously recommends that its shareholders vote “FOR” the BCA Proposal, “FOR” the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, “FOR” the Domestication Proposal, “FOR” the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” each of the separate Organizational Documents Proposals, “FOR” the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the Incentive Award Plan Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, in each case, if presented to the extraordinary general meeting.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations

For a discussion summarizing the U.S. federal income tax considerations of the Domestication and exercise of redemption rights, please see “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

Expected Accounting Treatment of the Business Combination

The Business Combination is expected to be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, G4G is expected to be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the financial statements of New ZeroNox will represent a continuation of the financial statements of ZeroNox, with the Business Combination being treated as the equivalent of ZeroNox issuing stock for the net assets of G4G, accompanied by a recapitalization whereby no goodwill or other intangible assets are recorded, with net assets of G4G being presented at historical costs. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be presented as those of ZeroNox. ZeroNox has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

●ZeroNox Shareholders will have the largest voting interest in the post-combination company under the 50%, 75%, and maximum redemption scenarios;

●The board of directors of the post-combination company will have seven (7) directors, including (A) two (2) individuals to be designated by the Sponsor as directors, (B) four (4) individuals to be designated by ZeroNox as directors and (C) one (1) independent director designated mutually by the Sponsor and ZeroNox;

●ZeroNox management will hold executive management roles (including Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, among others) for the post-combination company and be responsible for the day-to-day operations;

●

ZeroNox’s name will be the name of the combined company; and the intended strategy of the post-combination entity will continue ZeroNox’s current strategy of being a leader in the electrification of commercial and industrial off-highway vehicles industry.

Table of Contents

Expected Accounting Treatment of the Domestication

There will be no accounting effect or change in the carrying amount of the consolidated assets and liabilities of the Company as a result of the Domestication. The business, capitalization, assets and liabilities and financial statements of New ZeroNox immediately following the Domestication will be the same as those of G4G immediately prior to the Domestication.

Regulatory Matters

Neither G4G nor ZeroNox is aware of any material regulatory approvals or actions that are required for completion of the Business Combination. It is presently contemplated that if any such additional regulatory approvals or actions are required, those approvals or actions will be sought. There can be no assurance, however, that any additional approvals or actions will be obtained.

Emerging Growth Company

G4G is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act, and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in G4G’s periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. G4G has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, G4G, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make it difficult or impossible to compare G4G’s financial results with the financial results of another public company that is either not an emerging growth company or is an emerging growth company that has chosen not to take advantage of the extended transition period exemptions because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

G4G will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of G4G’s initial public offering, (b) in which G4G has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion or (c) in which G4G is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of G4G’s common equity that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter and (2) the date on which G4G has issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” will have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

Risk Factors

In evaluating the proposals to be presented at the G4G extraordinary general meeting, a shareholder should carefully read this proxy statement/prospectus and especially consider the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors.” Some of the risks related to New ZeroNox’s business and industry and the risks of the combined company are summarized below:

●

We are an early stage company with a history of losses. We expect to incur significant expenses and may have continuing losses for the foreseeable future.

●

Our limited operating history makes evaluating our business and future prospects difficult and may increase the risk of your investment.

●

Our future growth depends on our target markets’ willingness to adopt electric vehicles and our battery technologies, and various economic factors.

●

We may not be able to successfully engage target customers or convert early trial deployments with truck fleets into meaningful orders or additional deployments in the future.

Table of Contents

●

The benefits of our OHEV to customers and projected return on investment have not been substantiated through long-term trials or use.

●

If our vehicles fail to perform as expected, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected, as would be the event of any product liability claims or product recalls.

●

We will require substantial additional capital to develop and grow our business, and we may be unable to adequately control the costs associated with our operations, and that could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our operations, including our product development or commercialization efforts.

●

We have no issued patents for our proprietary technologies at this time.

●

Our success depends on third-party suppliers, some of which are limited source suppliers.

●

Developments in alternative technologies or improvements in the internal combustion engine may materially adversely affect the demand for our OHEVs.

●

Our financial results may vary significantly from period to period due to fluctuations in our operating costs, product demand and other factors.

●

We have entered and may continue to enter into agreements and non-binding purchase orders, letters of intent and memoranda of understanding or similar agreements for sales of our vehicles, which are cancellable at the option of our customers for reasons including our failure to meet certain performance or validation milestones.

●

We may experience significant delays in the design, manufacturing and wide-spread deployment of our OHEVs and our Iron Vault energy storage system, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

●

Our ability to develop our vehicles of sufficient quality and appeal to customers on schedule and on a large scale will require significant capital expenditures and is unproven and still evolving.

●

Our vehicles use lithium-ion battery cells, a class of batteries which have been observed to catch fire or vent smoke and flame.

●

Increases in costs, disruption of supply or shortage of materials, in particular for lithium-ion battery cells, semiconductors and other key components, could harm our business.

●

We and our contract manufacturing partners may rely on complex machinery for the manufacture of our vehicles and battery packs, which involves a significant degree of risk and uncertainty in terms of operational performance and costs.

●

The performance characteristics of our vehicles and battery packs may vary, including due to factors outside of our control, which could harm our ability to develop, market and deploy our vehicles.

●

The unavailability, reduction or elimination of government and economic incentives due to policy changes or government regulation could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

●

Future changes to regulatory requirements may have a negative impact upon our business.

●

Ongoing impacts from COVID-19 or another pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease may materially and adversely impact Nauticus’ business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

●

Changes in U.S. trade policy, including the imposition of tariffs and the resulting consequences, could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

●

We are subject to governmental export and import controls and laws that could subject us to liability if we are not in compliance with such laws.

●

We are subject to U.S. and foreign anti-corruption and anti-money laundering laws and regulations. We can face criminal liability and other serious consequences for violations, which can harm our business.

SELECTED UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following summary unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial data (the “Summary Pro Forma Information”) gives effect to the Business Combination and related transactions. The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, G4G will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination will be reflected as the equivalent of ZeroNox issuing shares for the net assets of G4G, followed by a recapitalization whereby no goodwill or other intangible assets are recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of ZeroNox. There will be no accounting effect or change in the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities as a result of the Business Combination. The summary unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 gives effect to the Business Combination as if it had occurred on December 31, 2022. The summary unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 gives effect to the Business Combination as if they had occurred on January 1, 2022.

The Summary Pro Forma Information has been derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the more detailed unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included in the section titled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” in this proxy statement/prospectus and the accompanying notes thereto. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based upon, and should be read in conjunction with, the historical financial statements and related notes of G4G and ZeroNox for the applicable periods included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. The Summary Pro Forma Information has been presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what ZeroNox’s financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the Business Combination been completed as of the dates indicated. In addition, the Summary Pro Forma Information does not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of ZeroNox following the reverse recapitalization.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the assumptions below with respect to the potential redemption into cash of G4G ordinary shares:

●

Assuming No Redemptions: This scenario assumes that no additional public stockholders of G4G exercise redemption rights with respect to their public shares for a pro rata share of the funds in the trust account.

●

Assuming Maximum Redemptions and that Proposal No. 2 is not approved: This scenario assumes that 21,910,100 G4G public shares are redeemed for their pro rata share of the cash in the trust account, which is the maximum amount that can be redeemed. This scenario gives effect to G4G share redemptions for aggregate redemption payments of approximately $222.5 million at a redemption price of approximately $10.15 based on the investments held in the trust account as of December 31, 2022.

MARKET PRICE AND DIVIDEND INFORMATION

Holders of the units, public shares and public warrants should obtain current market quotations for their securities. The market price of G4G’s securities could vary at any time before the Business Combination.

Holders

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus there were one holder of record of G4G Class A ordinary shares, one holder of record of G4G Class B ordinary shares, two holders of record of G4G units, one holder of record of G4G warrants and one holder of record of G4G rights. See “Beneficial Ownership of Securities.”

Dividend Policy

G4G has not paid any cash dividends on its Class A ordinary shares to date and does not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of the Business Combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon the revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition of New ZeroNox subsequent to completion of the Business Combination. The payment of any cash dividends subsequent to the Business Combination will be within the discretion of New ZeroNox’ board of directors. The G4G Board is not currently contemplating and does not anticipate declaring stock dividends nor is it currently expected that the board of directors of New ZeroNox will declare any dividends in the foreseeable future. Further, the ability of New ZeroNox to declare dividends may be limited by the terms of financing or other agreements entered into by New ZeroNox or its subsidiaries from time to time.

Price Range of ZeroNox’s Securities

Risks Related to ZeroNox’s Business and Industry

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this subsection to “we,” “us” or “our” refer to the business of ZeroNox prior to Closing, which will be the business of New ZeroNox and its subsidiaries following Closing. The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in these risk factors, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and future prospects of New ZeroNox, in which event the market price of New ZeroNox common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.

We are an early stage company with a history of losses. We expect to incur significant expenses and may have continuing losses for the foreseeable future.

We incurred a net loss of approximately $7.6 million and $4.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. Although we were incorporated in October 2017, we did not develop our first prototype until late 2018 and commercialize our first products until January 2019. Since 2019, we have delivered and sold approximately 800 Off Highway Electric Vehicles (including Tuatara UTVs, Ion hospitality carts and PEAK forklifts). We expect to continue to incur operating and net losses each quarter until we have begun a large scale delivery of our “Powered by ZeroNox” brand of Off Highway Electric Vehicles (“OHEVs”) and have realized increased market adoption of our electric powertrain and battery technologies. Even if we can successfully develop our vehicles and attract additional customers, there can be no assurance that we will be able to generate net income. Future profitability is dependent upon, among other things, the successful development and acceptance of our OHEVs, electric powertrain and battery technologies, which may not occur.

We expect the rate at which we will incur losses to be significantly higher in future periods as we:

●continue to design, develop, market, commercialize and sell our vehicles and services;

●

continue to utilize and develop potential new relationships with third-party partners for supply and design to manufacturing, and manufacturing;

●build up inventories of parts and components for our vehicles;

●expand our design, development, installation and servicing capabilities;

●further develop our proprietary battery storage technology;

●increase our sales and marketing activities and develop our distribution network

●increase our general and administrative functions to support our growing operations and to operate as a public company; and

●expand our facility to enhance our efficiency and capabilities for assembly of our vehicles.

Because we will incur the costs and expenses from these efforts before we receive any incremental revenues with respect thereto, our losses in future periods will be significant. In addition, we may find that these efforts are more expensive than we currently anticipate or that these efforts may not result in additional revenues, which would further increase our losses.

ZeroNox’s independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about ZeroNox’s ability to continue as a “going concern.”

We have incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and have a stockholders’ deficit of approximately $6.3 million at December 31, 2022. We expect to continue to incur net losses and use cash in operations for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. As of December 31, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $493,176. We believe that our current capital resources are not sufficient to meet our current immediate capital needs and we will require additional capital in order to operate our business in the short term. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months.

We have funded our activities primarily through equity and debt financing and will be required to raise additional capital to meet our operating and debt obligations when they come due. We depend on our ability to raise additional funding through equity and/or debt financing to continue operations for the next twelve months and cannot make any assurances that any financing will be available to us and, if available, on acceptable terms or at all. This raises substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. If we raise additional capital through public or private equity offerings or offerings of securities convertible into our equity, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted and the terms of any such securities may have a preference over our common stock.

We rely on a few customers to generate revenue and a loss of any key customer will have material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

As of December 31, 2022, we have one customer accounting for approximately 17% of our accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2021, we have five customers accounting for approximately 69% of our accounts receivable. One customer represented approximately 14% of gross revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022. Until we can successfully broaden and diversify our customer base, we may continue to rely on only a few customers to generate our revenues. Although it is our strategy to market our products and services to a larger number of OEMs and fleet owners and to obtain sales orders in larger scale, there is no assurance that our strategy or efforts will be successful. If we fail to generate revenue from our a broader customer base, our reliance on just a few customers may continue for an extended period of time, and the loss of any key customer will have material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition

We will require substantial additional capital to fund our business operations in the short term and also to develop and grow our business, and we may be unable to adequately control the costs associated with our operations, and that could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our operations, including our product development or commercialization efforts.

We will require substantial additional capital to fund our business operations in the short term and also to develop and grow our business, including developing our products and services, establishing or expanding design, research and development, assembly, sales and service facilities and building our brand. We have incurred, and expect to incur, significant expenses, including (i) raw material procurement costs, freight and shipping costs, research and development expenses (including what is related to developing and commercializing our vehicles), sales and distribution expenses as we build our brand and market our products and services, (ii) general and administrative expenses as we scale our operations, and (iii) expenses related to investigating new areas of product demand; and (iv) costs to operate as a public company, all of which will impact our profitability. However, our ability to become profitable in the future will not only depend on our ability to complete the design and development of our OHEVs to meet projected performance metrics, identify and investigate new areas of product demand and successfully market our OHEVs, but also to sell our OHEVs at prices needed to achieve our expected margins. If we are unable to control costs and efficiently design, develop, market, deploy, distribute and service our OHEVs, electrification conversion kits and other products, and successfully commercialize our prototype products and gain greater adoption of our electric powertrain and battery technology, our margins, profitability and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

We expect to continue to expend substantial resources for the foreseeable future in order to fund our sales and marketing efforts and expand our business, infrastructure and systems. In addition, other unanticipated costs may arise. Because the commercialization expenditures needed to meet our sales objectives are highly uncertain, we cannot reasonably estimate the actual amount necessary to successfully commercialize and deliver the “Powered by ZeroNox” brand of products and future brands, including Iron Vault, on a large scale. We also expect to incur additional costs as we operate as a public company, hire additional personnel and expand our operations. If we are unable to adequately control the costs associated with our operations, we may be forced to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our operations, including our product development or commercialization efforts.

We have incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations and have an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2022 of $6.3 million, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2022, we had cash

Table of Contents

and cash equivalents of $493,176. We believe that our current capital resources are not sufficient to meet our current immediate capital needs and we will require additional capital in order to operate our business in the short term. We will be required to raise additional capital to meet our operating and debt obligations when they come due. If we raise additional capital through public or private equity offerings or offerings of securities convertible into our equity, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted and the terms of any such securities may have a preference over our common stock.

If we are unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, we will be required to take actions to address our liquidity needs which may include the following: significantly reduce operating expenses and delay, reduce the scope of, or discontinue some of our development programs, commercialization efforts or other aspects of our business plan, or a combination of the above. As a result, our ability to achieve profitability or to respond to competitive pressures would be significantly limited and may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and/or our ability to fund our scheduled obligations on a timely basis or at all.

Our limited operating history makes evaluating our business and future prospects difficult and may increase the risk of your investment.

Although we were incorporated in October 2017, we did not develop our first prototype until late 2018 and commercialize our first products until January 2019. We have a very limited operating history on which investors can base an evaluation of our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. There are no assurances that we will be able to secure future business with customers. You must consider the risks and difficulties we face as an early-stage company with a limited operating history. If we do not successfully address these risks, our business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results may be materially and adversely harmed.

It is difficult to predict our future revenues and appropriately budget for our expenses, as we have limited insight into trends that may emerge and affect our business. In the event that actual results differ from our estimates or we adjust our estimates in future periods, our operating results and financial position could be materially affected. The projected financial information appearing elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus has been prepared by our management and reflects current estimates of future performance and incorporates certain financial and operational assumptions, including but not limited to the following:

●raising sufficient working capital as needed;

●

successful conversion of early trial deployment into sale orders (which usually requires our satisfaction of certain performance and validation milestones mandated by the OEMs or fleet owners);

●ordering products and components with manufacturers on time;

●no major shipping delays from our suppliers due to factory closures or supply chain constraints;

●no major shifts in fleet owners’ purchasing patterns or trends;

●no major service or warranty related issues that could negatively affect customer satisfaction or brand reputation;

●growth in our customer base among OEMs and fleet owners, and in distributor and dealership network;

●expansion into OEMs’ other product lines,

●successful incubation, development and deployment of clean energy technologies; and

●successful new products launch.

The projected results depend on the successful implementation of our management’s growth strategies and are based on assumptions and events over which we have little control. The assumptions underlying such projected information require the exercise of judgement and may not occur, and are subject to uncertainty due to the effects of economic, business, competitive, regulatory, legislative, political and other changes. For more information regarding ZeroNox’s projections, please see the section entitled, “Proposal 1 — The BCA Proposal —Projected Financial Information.”

Our future growth depends on our target markets’ willingness to adopt electric vehicles, electrification conversion kits and our battery technologies, and various economic factors.

While electric vehicles (“EVs”) have become mainstream in the traditional automotive industry, adjacent alternative vehicle markets for OHEVs such as UTVs, ATVs, forklifts, heavy-duty trucks and tractor/agricultural machinery are relatively nascent. Our growth is highly dependent upon the adoption by our target markets of our electric vehicles and battery technologies. Therefore, we are subject to an elevated risk of any reduced demand for alternative fuel vehicles, generally, and EVs and battery technologies in particular. If our target markets do not adopt our EVs and battery technologies and/or such vehicles and technologies generally, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results will be negatively impacted.

Our growth depends on our ability to produce, sell and provide services that meet the needs of our customers, which are subject to various factors, including but not limited to the following:

●

the difference in the initial purchase price of commercial EVs and technologies compared to those with internal combustion engines;

●

impact of government and other subsidies and incentives designed to promote the purchase of EVs;

●

the total cost of ownership of the vehicle over its expected life, which includes the initial purchase price and ongoing operating and maintenance costs;

●

the availability and terms of financing options for purchases of vehicles and, for commercial electric vehicles, financing options for battery systems;

●

the availability of tax and other governmental incentives to purchase and operate EVs and future regulations requiring increased use of nonpolluting vehicles;

●

government regulations and economic incentives promoting fuel efficiency and alternate forms of energy;

●

fuel prices, including volatility in the cost of diesel;

●

the cost and availability of other alternatives to diesel fueled vehicles, such as vehicles powered by natural gas;

●

commercial electric vehicle quality, performance and safety (particularly with respect to lithium-ion battery packs);

●

the quality and availability of service for the vehicle, including the availability of replacement parts;

●

the limited range over which commercial electric vehicles may be driven on a single battery charge;

●

electric grid capacity and reliability; and

●

macroeconomic factors.

If we are unable to successfully develop new EVs and services in our target markets, address new market segments or develop a significantly broader customer base, it would have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

We may not be able to successfully engage target customers or convert trial deployments with truck fleets into meaningful orders or additional deployments in the future.

Our success, and our ability to increase revenue and operate profitably, depends in part on our ability to identify target customers and to convert trial deployments with truck fleets into meaningful orders or additional deployments in the future. Our vehicles have been delivered to certain customers on an early trial deployment basis, where such customers have the ability to evaluate whether these OHEVs meet their performance and other requirements before they commit to order or additional deployments in the future. If we are unable to meet customers’ performance requirements or industry specifications, meet the performance and validation milestones

Table of Contents

mandated by the fleet owners or OEM, identify new target customers or convert early trial deployments in truck fleets into orders or obtain additional deployments in the future, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results may be materially adversely affected.

The benefits of our OHEVs to customers and projected return on investment have not been substantiated through long-term trials or use.

Our core products’ benefits to customers and projected return on investment have not been substantiated through long-term trials or use. We currently have a limited frame of reference by which to evaluate the performance of our OHEVs upon which our business prospects depend. There can be no assurance that our vehicles will provide the expected long-term benefits to customers. Our vehicles may not perform consistently with customers’ expectations. Any failure of our products and service offerings to perform as expected could harm our reputation and result in adverse publicity, lost revenue, delivery delays, product recalls, product liability claims and significant warranty and other expenses and could have a material adverse impact on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

If our vehicles fail to perform as expected, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

Our vehicles may not perform in a manner that is consistent with our customers’ expectations for a variety of reasons. Some of our prototype vehicles experienced maintenance problems, which resulted in increased service costs and management time spent to address the problem and support the customer relationship.

Vehicles that we produce and sell in the future also may contain defects in design and manufacture that cause them not to perform as expected or that may require repair. Further, the performance of our vehicles may be negatively impacted by other factors, such as limitations inherent in existing battery technology and extreme weather conditions. If defects in our vehicles exist or our vehicle technologies do not perform over time in the manner we expect, we could be required to incur significant costs to fix such defects, replace vehicle systems and/or conduct recalls of our vehicles, which could adversely affect our brand, business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Any product defect or other failure of our commercial electric vehicles to perform as expected could result in customer losses, adverse publicity, lost revenue, delivery delays, product recalls, product liability claims, harm to our brand and reputation, and significant warranty and other expenses, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

We have no issued patents for our proprietary technologies at this time. Our patent applications, including that for ZeroNox Electronic Powertrain Platform (“ZEPP”) and our Iron Vault energy storage system, may not be granted, and if so, that may have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from commercially exploiting products similar to ours.

We cannot be certain that we are the first inventor of the subject matter disclosure or the first to file a patent application for our proprietary technology, including for ZEPP and Iron Vault energy storage system. If another party has filed a patent application of the same or similar subject matter as we have, we may not be entitled to the protection sought by the patent application. We also cannot be certain whether the claims included in a patent application will ultimately be allowed in the applicable issued patent. Further, the scope of protection of issued patent claims is often difficult to determine. As a result, we cannot be certain that the patent applications that we file will issue, or that our issued patents will afford protection against competitors with similar technology. In addition, our competitors may design around our issued patents, which may adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Our business may be adversely affected if we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights from unauthorized use by third parties.

We currently do not have any issued patents for our proprietary electric powertrain or battery technologies. Failure to adequately protect our intellectual property rights could result in our competitors offering similar products, potentially resulting in the loss of some of our competitive advantage and a decrease in our revenue, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. Our success depends, at least in part, on our ability to protect our core technology and intellectual property. To accomplish this, we will rely on a combination of patents, trade secrets (including know-how), employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements, copyrights, trademarks, intellectual property licenses and other contractual rights to establish and protect our rights in our technology.

Table of Contents

The protection of our intellectual property rights will be important to our future business opportunities. However, the measures we take to protect our intellectual property from unauthorized use by others may not be effective for various reasons, including the following:

●

as noted below, any patent applications we submit may not result in the issuance of patents;

●

the scope of our patents that may subsequently issue may not be broad enough to protect our proprietary rights;

●

our patents, even if issued, may be challenged or invalidated by third parties;

●

our employees or business partners may breach their confidentiality, non-disclosure and non-use obligations to us;

●

third parties may independently develop technologies that are the same or similar to ours;

●

the costs associated with enforcing patents, confidentiality and invention agreements or other intellectual property rights may make enforcement impracticable; and

●

current and future competitors may circumvent or otherwise design around our patents.

Patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws vary throughout the world. Some foreign countries, such as Ghana and other countries in Africa, do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the U.S. Further, policing the unauthorized use of our intellectual property rights in foreign jurisdictions may be difficult. Therefore, our intellectual property rights may not be as strong or as easily enforced outside of the U.S.

Also, while we have registered and applied for trademarks in an effort to protect our investment in our brand and goodwill with customers, competitors may challenge the validity of those trademarks and other brand names in which we have invested. Such challenges can be expensive and may adversely affect our ability to maintain the goodwill gained in connection with a particular trademark.

Our success depends on third-party suppliers, some of which are limited source suppliers. The inability of these suppliers, due to increased demand or other factors, to deliver necessary components of our vehicles and battery packs at prices and quantities we require, performance and specifications acceptable to us, could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

We rely on third-party suppliers for the provision and development of many of the key components and materials used in our vehicles and battery packs. While we plan to obtain components from multiple sources whenever possible, some of the components used in our products will be purchased by us from a single or limited number of sources. Our third-party suppliers may not be able to meet their product specifications and performance characteristics, which would impact our ability to achieve our product specifications and performance characteristics as well. A supplier’s failure to supply parts in a timely manner or to supply parts that meet our quality, quantity or cost requirements or specifications or inability to obtain alternative sources of similar components could materially adversely affect our business. We do not know when or whether we will secure long-term supply and relationships with any supplier or partner, or whether such relationships will be on terms that will allow us to achieve our objectives. If we are unable to obtain components and materials used in our products from our suppliers or if our suppliers decide to create or supply competing products, our business could be adversely affected. While we believe that we can establish alternate supply relationships and can obtain or engineer replacement components for our limited source components, we may be unable to do so in the short term, or at all, at prices or quality levels that are favorable to us. In addition, if these suppliers experience substantial financial difficulties, cease operations, or otherwise face business disruptions, we may be required to provide substantial financial support to ensure supply continuity or would have to take other measures to ensure components and materials remain available. Any disruption could affect our ability to deliver vehicles and could increase our costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. In 2021 and 2022 and for reasons related to COVID, we experienced delays in manufacturing due to closure of manufacturing plants, and delays in shipping due to shortage of shipping containers and backlog at the ports.

The market for our vehicles and technologies is rapidly changing and subject to various factors that may negatively impact our results of operations.

The market for alternative fuel vehicles is rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, price competition, additional competitors, evolving government regulation and industry standards, frequent new vehicle announcements and changing demands and behaviors within our target markets. Factors that may influence the adoption of alternative fuel vehicles, and specifically EVs, include:

●

perceptions about EVs quality, safety, design, performance and cost;

●

adverse events or accidents that are linked to the quality or safety of EVs;

●

the limited range over which EVs may be driven on a single battery charge;

●

the decline of an EV’s range resulting from deterioration over time in the battery’s ability to hold a charge;

●

concerns about electric grid capacity and reliability, which could derail our past and present efforts to promote EVs as a practical solution to vehicles which require gasoline or diesel;

●

the availability of alternative fuel vehicles, including plug-in hybrid EVs;

●

improvements in the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine;

●

the relative environmental consciousness of consumers;

●

volatility in the cost of oil and gasoline;

●

consumers’ perceptions of the dependency of the United States on oil from unstable or hostile countries, and government regulations;

●

economic incentives promoting fuel efficiency and alternate forms of energy;

●

access to charging stations, standardization of EV charging systems and consumers’ perceptions about convenience and cost to charge an EV;

●

the availability of tax and other governmental incentives to purchase and operate EVs or future regulation requiring increased use of nonpolluting vehicles;

●

political bent of Congress and the President for regulations impacting the promotion of clean technologies;

●

perceptions about and the actual cost of alternative fuel; and

●

macroeconomic factors.

The influence of any of the factors described above may cause current or potential customers not to purchase our OHEVs or battery technologies, which would negatively impact our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

Developments in alternative technologies or improvements in the internal combustion engine may materially adversely affect the demand for our OHEVs and battery technologies.

Significant developments in alternative technologies, such as advanced diesel, ethanol, fuel cells or compressed natural gas, or improvements in the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine, may materially and adversely affect our business and prospects, in ways that are difficult to assess or that we are unable to anticipate. If we fail to develop new or enhanced technologies or processes, or to react to changes in existing technologies, our OHEVs and battery technologies may lose competitiveness which could lead to decreased revenue.

Table of Contents

EV technology is rapidly evolving and may be subject to unforeseen changes which could adversely affect the demand for our OHEVs.

The EV technology is rapidly evolving and we may be unable to keep up with changes or alternatives to electricity as a fuel source and, as a result, our competitiveness may suffer. Developments in alternative technologies, such as advanced diesel, ethanol, hybrids, fuel cells, or compressed natural gas, or improvements in the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine, may materially and adversely affect our business and prospects in ways we do not currently anticipate. As technologies evolve, particularly battery cell technology, we may have to make changes to our products, which may also negatively impact the market adoption of our existing products. Any failure by us to successfully react to changes in existing technologies could materially harm our competitive position and growth prospects.

If we are unable to keep up with advances in EV technology, we may suffer a decline in our competitive position.

There are companies in the electric vehicle industry that have developed or are developing vehicles and technologies that compete or will compete with our vehicles. There are no assurances that traditional auto makers such as Daimler, Ford, General Motors, and Volvo will not enter into the OHEV market and compete with us. We also cannot assure you that our competitors will not be able to duplicate our technology or provide products and services similar to ours more efficiently. Our research and development efforts, including the time and resources devoted to our Zeronox Clean Technology Incubator, may be insufficient to adapt to changes in, or create necessary, technology to be competitive. Any failure by us to keep up with advances in EV technology, particularly battery technology, would result in a decline in our competitive position which would materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition.

The OHEV market is highly competitive, and we may not be successful in competing in this market.

We face intense competition in bringing our OHEVs to market. We face competition from many different sources in the OHEV market including existing major commercial vehicle OEMs, such as Polaris and John Deere, as well as new companies that are developing alternative fuel and electric commercial vehicles. Many of our current and potential competitors, including Xos, Inc. and Proterra Inc., may have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing and other resources than we do and may be able to devote greater resources to the design, development, manufacturing, distribution, promotion, sale and support of our products, including our OHEVs. Additionally, our competitors may also have substantially greater financial resources and name recognition, longer operating histories, larger sales forces, broader customer and industry relationships and other resources than we do. These competitors also compete with us in recruiting and retaining qualified research and development, sales, marketing and management personnel, as well as in acquiring technologies complementary to, or necessary for, our vehicles. Additional mergers and acquisitions activities may result in even more resources being concentrated in our competitors. In addition, we also compete with manufacturers of vehicles with internal combustion engines. There are no assurances that customers will choose our vehicles over those of our competitors, or over internal combustion engines vehicles. We expect additional competitors to enter the market as well.

We expect competition in our OHEV market to intensify from our existing and future competitors in the future considering increased demand and regulatory push for EV and alternative fuel commercial vehicles.

The demand for electric vehicles depends, in part, on the continuation of current trends resulting from dependence on fossil fuels. Extended periods of low gasoline or other petroleum-based fuel prices could adversely affect demand for our vehicles, which would adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

We believe that much of the present and projected demand for EVs results from concerns about volatility in the cost of gasoline and other petroleum-based fuel, the dependency of the United States on oil from unstable or hostile countries, government regulations and economic incentives promoting fuel efficiency and alternative forms of energy, as well as the belief that climate change results in part from the burning of fossil fuels. If the cost of gasoline and other petroleum-based fuel decreased significantly, the outlook for the long-term supply of oil to the United States improved, the government eliminated or modified its regulations or economic incentives related to fuel efficiency and alternative forms of energy, or if there is a change in the perception that the burning of fossil fuels negatively impacts the environment, the demand for electric vehicles could be reduced, and our business and revenue may be harmed. In addition, demand for our offerings may be negative impacted if stay at home orders related to the COVID-19 pandemic persist or are adopted by additional markets.

Gasoline and other petroleum-based fuel prices have been extremely volatile, and we believe this continuing volatility will persist. Lower gasoline or other petroleum-based fuel prices over extended periods of time may lower the perception in government and the private sector that cheaper, more readily available energy alternatives should be developed and produced. If gasoline or other petroleum-

Table of Contents

based fuel prices remain at deflated levels for extended periods of time, the demand for EVs may decrease, which would have an adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Our financial results may vary significantly from period to period due to fluctuations in our operating costs, product demand and other factors.

We expect our period-to-period financial results to vary based on our operating costs and product demand. For instance, our product sales to the farming and agricultural market have historically exhibited seasonality. Our products, such as UTVs and electrification conversion kits, are often used for customers’ activities related to farming, transportation, cultivation, and irrigation. Demand for our products used for such activities tend to be more prevalent in the spring and fall seasons when planting and harvesting occur. As a result, our sales tend to be higher in those periods and lower in the winter season when there is less demand for our products. As we continue to diversify our customer base, we expect more consistent revenue streams from the fleet owners and OEMs outside of the agricultural market. However, there is no assurance that we may not continue to face some challenges related to seasonality of sales, such as cash flow fluctuations, inventory management, production planning and operating expenses, which we anticipate will fluctuate as the pace at which we continue to design, develop new vehicles, increase manufacturing or assembly capacity and establish or expand design, research and development, manufacturing/assembly, sales and service facilities.

Our revenues from period to period may also fluctuate as we identify and investigate areas of demand, adjust volumes and add new products based on market demand and margin opportunities, develop and introduce new vehicles or introduce existing vehicles to new markets for the first time. As a result of these factors, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our financial results, especially in the short term, are not necessarily meaningful and that these comparisons cannot be relied upon as indicators of future performance. Moreover, our financial results may not meet expectations of equity research analysts, ratings agencies or investors, who may be focused only on quarterly financial results. If any of this occurs, the trading price of New ZeroNox common stock could fall substantially, either suddenly or over time.

Our operating and financial results forecast relies in large part upon assumptions and analyses developed by us. If these assumptions or analyses prove to be incorrect, our actual operating results may be materially different from our forecasted results.

The projected financial and operating information appearing elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus reflect current estimates of future performance and incorporate certain financial and operational assumptions, including cost of goods sold, inflation, retail and wholesale prices, market demand, supply chain, product development cycles, manufacturing capacity, raw material availability, labor availability, and working capital. These assumptions are preliminary and there can be no assurance that the actual results upon which our assumptions are based will be in line with our expectations. The projections cover multiple years and such financial projections, by their nature, become subject to greater uncertainty with each succeeding year. Given our limited commercial experience, it is likely that many of these assumptions will prove incorrect. The projections are forward-looking statements that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. See “Risk Factors,” “ZeroNox’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” In addition, whether actual operating and financial results and business developments will be consistent with our expectations and assumptions as reflected in our forecast depends on a number of factors, many of which are outside our control, including, but not limited to:

●

whether we can obtain sufficient capital to sustain and grow our business;

●

our ability to manage our growth;

●

whether we can manage relationships with key suppliers and partners;

●

the timing and costs of new and existing marketing and promotional efforts;

●

competition, including from established and future competitors;

●

the timing and costs of each vehicle delivery;

●

whether customers will adopt our electric powertrain and battery storage technologies;

●

our ability to retain existing key management, to integrate recent hires and to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel;

Table of Contents

●

the overall strength and stability of domestic and international economies;

●

demand for our current products and services;

●

regulatory, legislative and political changes; and

●

consumer requirements and preferences.

Unfavorable changes in any of these or other factors, most of which are beyond our control, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial results. For more information regarding ZeroNox’s projections, please see the section entitled “Proposal 1 — The BCA Proposal —Projected Financial Information.”

We are subject to risks associated with strategic alliances with our key suppliers and product development partners, and may not be able to identify adequate strategic relationship opportunities, or form strategic relationships, in the future.

We have entered into non-binding memoranda of understanding and letters of intent (“MOUs”) with certain key manufacturers, suppliers and development partners to form strategic alliances with such third parties, and may in the future enter into additional strategic alliances or joint ventures or minority equity investments, in each case with various third parties for the manufacture of our vehicles. There is no guarantee that any of our MOUs would lead to any binding agreements or lasting or successful business relationships with such key suppliers and development partners. If these strategic alliances are established, they may subject us to several risks, including risks associated with sharing proprietary information, non-performance by the third-party and increased expenses in establishing new strategic alliances, any of which may materially and adversely affect our business. We may have limited ability to monitor or control the actions of these third parties and, to the extent any of these strategic third parties suffer negative publicity or harm to their reputation from events relating to our business. We may also suffer negative publicity or harm to our reputation by virtue of our association with any such third-party.

Strategic business relationships will be an important factor in the growth and success of our business. However, there are no assurances that we will be able to continue to identify or secure suitable business relationship opportunities in the future or our competitors may capitalize on such opportunities before we do. Moreover, identifying such opportunities could require substantial management time and resources, and negotiating and financing relationships involves significant costs and uncertainties. If we are unable to successfully source and execute on strategic relationship opportunities in the future, our overall growth could be impaired, and our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

We have entered and may continue enter into agreements, purchase orders, letters of intent and memoranda of understanding or similar agreements for the sale of our vehicles that include various cancellation rights in favor of the customer. For example, we have entered into binding distribution and purchase agreements for the purchase of vehicles; however, they are subject to the further entry into a definitive agreement with final pricing, warranty coverage and other terms. These purchase obligations may also be cancelled if ZeroNox has failed to meet the performance or validation milestones specified in such agreements. As a result, we cannot assure you that we will be able to enter into a definitive agreement that will result in additional revenue to ZeroNox. In addition, we have entered and may continue to enter into purchase orders, letters of intent and memoranda of understanding or similar agreements that are not binding on our customer and may also be subject to modification and cancellation provisions. Any of these adverse actions related to these agreements, purchase orders, letters of intent, memoranda of understanding or any future customer contracts could harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

If we are unable to train fleet owners and OEMs on the safe and appropriate use of our products, we may be unable to achieve our expected growth.

It is critical to the success of our commercialization efforts to train a sufficient number of fleet owners and OEMs and provide them with adequate instruction in the safe and appropriate use of our products. This training process may take longer than expected and may therefore affect our ability to increase sales. Following completion of training, we rely on the trained customers to advocate the benefits of our products in the marketplace. Convincing our customers to dedicate the time and energy necessary for adequate training is challenging, and we cannot assure you that we will be successful in these efforts. If we cannot attract potential new customers to our

Table of Contents

education and training programs, we may be unable to achieve our expected growth. If our customers are not properly trained, they may misuse or ineffectively use our products. This may also result in, among other things, customers’ dissatisfaction of our products, negative publicity or lawsuits against us, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business and reputation.

Although we were incorporated in October 2017, we did not develop our first prototype until late 2018 and commercialize our first products until January 2019. Currently our Iron Vault and battery modularity is in development and testing phases. Large scale deliveries of our OHEVs to customers is not expected to begin until 2024 and may occur later or not at all. We have developed a prototype of the Iron Vault 10.75kWh energy storage system which is currently being tested and we plan to offer our Iron Vault energy storage system later this year. Any delay in the financing, design, development, manufacturing and release of our vehicles and energy storage system could materially damage our brand, business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. There are often delays in the design, development, manufacturing and release of new products, and to the extent we delay the launch of our products, our growth prospects could be adversely affected as we may fail to grow our market share. We will continue to rely on our third-party contract manufacturing partners to build our vehicles at scale, and if they are not able to manufacture the vehicles that meet our specifications, we will need to partner with other contract manufacturers or look for some other options, which may cause us to incur additional costs and delay deployment of our vehicles. Furthermore, we rely on third-party suppliers for the provision and development of many of the key components and materials used in our vehicles, and to the extent we experience any delays, we may need to seek alternative suppliers. If we experience delays by our third-party outsourcing partners or suppliers, we could experience delays in delivering on our timelines.

Our ability to develop our vehicles of sufficient quality and appeal to customers on schedule and on a large scale will require significant capital expenditures and is unproven and still evolving.

Although we have sold our OHEVs to a number of customers in the past, we have limited experience commercializing our vehicles on a large scale and may not be able to do so efficiently and effectively. A key element of our long-term business strategy is the continued growth in sales, marketing, training, customer service and maintenance and servicing operations, including hiring personnel with the necessary experience. Managing and maintaining these operations is expensive and time consuming, and an inability to leverage such an organization effectively or at all could inhibit potential sales and the penetration and adoption of our products into new markets. In addition, certain decisions we make regarding staffing in these areas in an effort to maintain an adequate spending level could have unintended negative effects on our revenues, such as weakening the sales, marketing and maintenance and servicing infrastructures or lowering the quality of customer service.

Our future business depends in large part on our ability to execute our plans to design, develop, manufacture, market, deploy and service our vehicles, which will require significant capital expenditures. Our continued development of our vehicles and battery packs are and will be subject to risks, including with respect to:

●

long- and short-term durability of our vehicles and battery packs to withstand day-to-day wear and tear;

●

compliance with environmental, workplace safety and similar regulations;

●

delays in delivery of components by our suppliers;

●

the compatibility of our electrification conversion kits with future vehicle designs;

●

our ability to attract, recruit, hire and train skilled employees;

●

quality controls, particularly as we plan to expand our manufacturing/assembly capabilities;

●

delays or disruptions in our supply chain;

●

other delays and cost overruns; and

●

our ability to secure additional funding, if necessary.

Table of Contents

We have no experience to date in high volume manufacturing of our vehicles and battery packs, and currently rely and will continue to rely on third-party contract manufacturing partners to manufacture our vehicles, and to supply critical components and systems, which expose us to a number of risks and uncertainties outside our control.

As of February 2023, we have partnered with third-party contract manufacturer partners to manufacture up to approximately 8,000 OHEVs per year once fully ramped up. We do not know whether we or our current or future third-party contract manufacturing partners will be able to develop efficient, automated, low-cost manufacturing capabilities and processes that will enable us to meet the quality, price, engineering, design and manufacturing standards, as well as the manufacturing volumes, required to successfully mass market our vehicles and battery packs. Even if we and our third-party contract manufacturing partners are successful in developing our high volume manufacturing capability and processes, we do not know whether we will be able to do so in a manner that avoids significant delays and cost overruns, including as a result of factors beyond our control such as problems with suppliers and vendors, or force majeure events, or in time to meet our product commercialization and manufacturing schedules or to satisfy the requirements of customers and potential customers. If our third-party contract manufacturing partners were to experience delays, disruptions, capacity constraints or quality control problems in our manufacturing operations, product shipments could be delayed or rejected or our customers could consequently elect to change product demand. These disruptions would negatively impact our revenues, competitive position and reputation. In addition, our current or future third-party contract manufacturing partners may rely on certain state tax incentives that may be subject to change or elimination in the future, which could result in additional costs and delays in manufacturing if a new manufacturing site must be obtained. Further, if we are unable to successfully manage our relationship with our third-party contract manufacturing partners, the quality and availability of our vehicles and battery packs may be harmed. Our third-party contract manufacturing partners could, under some circumstances, decline to accept new purchase orders from or otherwise reduce their business with us. If our third-party contract manufacturing partners stopped manufacturing our vehicles or battery packs for any reason or reduced their manufacturing capacity, we may be unable to replace the lost manufacturing capacity on a timely and comparatively cost-effective basis, which would adversely impact our operations and ability to meet delivery timelines.

Because we outsource the manufacturing of our vehicles, the cost, quality and availability of third-party contract manufacturing operations is essential to successfully manufacture of our vehicles and battery packs. Our reliance on third-party contract manufacturing partners exposes us to a number of risks which are outside our control, including:

●

unexpected increases in manufacturing costs;

●

interruptions in shipments if a third-party contract manufacturing partner is unable to complete production in a timely manner;

●

inability to control delivery schedules;

●

inability to control manufacturing levels and to meet minimum volume commitments to our customers;

●

inability to control manufacturing yield; and

●

inability to maintain adequate manufacturing capacity.

The manufacturing facilities of our third-party contract manufacturing partners and the equipment used to manufacture our vehicles and battery packs would be costly to replace and could require substantial lead time to replace and qualify for use. The manufacturing facilities of our third-party contract manufacturing partners may be harmed or rendered inoperable by natural or man-made disasters, including earthquakes, flooding, fire and power outages, or by health epidemics, such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic, which may render it difficult or impossible for us to manufacture our vehicles or battery packs for some period of time. The inability to manufacture our vehicles or the backlog that could develop if the manufacturing facilities of our third-party contract manufacturing partners are inoperable for even a short period of time may result in the loss of customers or harm our reputation.

Although we promote ethical business practices and our operations personnel periodically visit and monitor the operations of our third-party contract manufacturing partners, we do not control our third-party manufacturing partners or their labor and other legal compliance practices, including their environmental, health and safety practices. If our current or future third-party contract manufacturing partners violate U.S. or foreign laws or regulations, we may be subjected to extra duties, significant monetary penalties, adverse publicity, the seizure and forfeiture of products that we are attempting to import or the loss of our import privileges. The effects of these factors could render the conduct of our business in a particular country undesirable or impractical and have a negative impact on our operating results.

If we fail to manage our growth effectively, we may not be able to further design, develop, manufacture and market our vehicles or battery packs successfully.

Any failure to manage our growth effectively could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. We intend to expand our operations significantly. We expect our future expansion to include:

●

expanding the management team;

●

hiring and training new personnel;

●

expanding our product offering;

●

controlling expenses and investments in anticipation of expanded operations;

●

establishing or expanding design, research and development, manufacturing, sales, distribution, and service facilities;

●

implementing and enhancing administrative infrastructure, systems and processes; and

●

expanding into new markets.

As of February 2023, we had 43 full-time employees. We intend to continue to hire a significant number of additional personnel across a variety of functions including, but not limited to, sales, marketing, servicing, product, engineering, supply chain, manufacturing and operations. Competition for individuals with experience designing, manufacturing and servicing OHEVs is intense, and we may not be able to attract, integrate, train, motivate or retain additional highly qualified personnel. The failure to attract, integrate, train, motivate and retain these additional employees could seriously harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Our vehicles use lithium-ion battery cells, a class of batteries which have been observed to catch fire or vent smoke and flame.

Our battery packs use lithium-ion battery cells. On rare occasions, lithium-ion battery cells can rapidly release the energy they contain by venting smoke and flames in a manner that can ignite nearby materials as well as other lithium-ion battery cells. While we have taken measures to enhance the safety of our battery designs, a field or testing failure of our vehicles could occur in the future, which could subject us to lawsuits, product recalls, or redesign efforts, all of which would be time-consuming and expensive. Also, negative public perceptions regarding the suitability of lithium-ion battery cells for automotive applications or any future incident involving lithium-ion battery cells such as a vehicle or other fire, even if such incident does not involve our vehicles, could seriously harm our business.

In addition, our manufacturing partners and suppliers are expected to store a significant number of lithium-ion battery cells at their facilities. Any mishandling of battery cells may cause disruption to the operation of such facilities. A safety issue or fire related to the battery cells could disrupt operations or cause manufacturing delays. Such damage or injury could lead to adverse publicity and potentially a safety recall. Moreover, any failure of a competitor’s EV or energy storage product may cause indirect adverse publicity for us and our vehicles. Such adverse publicity could negatively affect our brand and harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Increases in costs, disruption of supply or shortage of materials, in particular for lithium-ion battery cells, and other key components, could harm our business.

We and our suppliers may experience increases in the cost of or a sustained interruption in the supply or shortage of materials. Any such increase, supply interruption or shortage could materially and negatively impact our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. We and our suppliers use various materials in their businesses and products, including for example lithium-ion battery cells and steel, and the prices for these materials fluctuate. The available supply of these materials may be unstable, depending on market conditions and global demand, including as a result of increased production of electric vehicles by our competitors, and could adversely affect our business and operating results. For instance, we are exposed to multiple risks relating to lithium-ion battery cells. These risks include:

●

an increase in the cost, or decrease in the available supply, of materials used in the battery cells;

Table of Contents

●

disruption in the supply of battery cells due to quality issues or recalls by battery cell manufacturers; and

●

fluctuations in the value of any foreign currencies in which battery cell and related raw material purchases are or may be denominated against the U.S. dollar.

Our business is dependent on the continued supply of battery cells for the battery packs used in our vehicles. Any disruption in the supply of battery cells from our suppliers could disrupt production of our vehicles. Furthermore, fluctuations or shortages in petroleum and other economic conditions may cause us to experience significant increases in freight charges and material costs. Substantial increases in the prices for our materials or prices charged to it, such as those charged by suppliers of battery cells or other key components, would increase our operating costs, and could reduce our margins if the increased costs cannot be recouped through increased vehicle sales. Any attempts to increase vehicle prices in response to increased material costs could result in cancellations of orders and reservations and therefore materially and adversely affect our brand, image, business, prospects and operating results.

We and our third-party contract manufacturing partners may rely on complex machinery, for the manufacture and assembly of our vehicles, which will involve a significant degree of uncertainty and risk in terms of operational performance and costs. Our facilities and the facilities of our third-party contract manufacturing partners and suppliers consist of large-scale machinery combining many components. These components may suffer unexpected malfunctions from time to time and will depend on repairs and spare parts to resume operations, which may not be available. Unexpected malfunctions of these components may significantly affect the intended operational efficiency. Operational performance and costs can be difficult to predict and are often influenced by factors outside of our control, such as, but not limited to, scarcity of natural resources, environmental hazards and remediation, costs associated with decommissioning of machines, labor disputes and strikes, difficulty or delays in obtaining governmental permits, damages or defects in electronic systems, industrial accidents, fire, seismic activity and natural disasters. Should operational risks materialize, it may result in the personal injury to or death of workers, the loss of manufacturing equipment, damage to manufacturing facilities, monetary losses, delays and unanticipated fluctuations in production, environmental damage, administrative fines, increased insurance costs and potential legal liabilities, all which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results.

The performance characteristics of our vehicles and battery packs may vary, including due to factors outside of our control, which could harm our ability to develop, market and deploy our vehicles.

The performance characteristics of our vehicles and battery packs, including expected range, may vary, including due to factors outside of our control. Our vehicles and battery packs are subject to further design and development in order to improve them, and there are no assurances that they will be able to meet their projected performance characteristics. External factors may also impact the performance characteristics of our vehicles and battery packs, including, but not limited to, driver behavior, speed, terrain, hardware efficiency, payload, vehicle and weather conditions. These external factors as well as any operation of our vehicles and battery packs other than as intended, may affect performance of our OHEVs and battery packs, including range and longevity.

In addition, our OHEVs may contain defects in design and manufacturing that may cause them not to perform as expected or may require repair. We currently have a limited frame of reference by which to evaluate the performance of our vehicles upon which our business prospects depend. There can be no assurance that we will be able to detect and fix any defects in our vehicles. We may experience recalls in the future, which could adversely affect our brand and could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. Our vehicles may not perform consistent with customers’ expectations or consistent with other vehicles which may become available.

If the average performance of our vehicles and battery packs, including the usable life of a battery pack, is less than ours or our customers’ expectations, or if there are product defects or any other failure of our vehicles and battery packs to perform as expected, our reputation could be harmed, which could result in adverse publicity, lost revenue, delivery delays, product recalls, negative publicity, product liability claims and significant warranty and other expenses and could have a material adverse impact on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Insufficient reserves to cover future part replacement needs or other vehicle repair requirements, including any potential software upgrades, could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

We will need to maintain reserves to cover part replacement and other vehicle repair needs, including any potential software upgrades or warranty claims. If our reserves are inadequate to cover future maintenance requirements on our vehicles, our business,

Table of Contents

prospects, financial condition and operating results could be materially and adversely affected. We may become subject to significant and unexpected expenses as well as claims from our customers, including loss of revenue or damages. There can be no assurances that then-existing reserves will be sufficient to cover all claims.

We may become subject to product liability claims, including possible class action and derivative lawsuits, which could harm our financial condition and liquidity if we are not able to successfully defend or insure against such claims.

Product liability claims, even those without merit or those that do not involve our vehicles, could harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. The automobile industry in particular experiences significant product liability claims, and we face inherent risk of exposure to claims in the event our vehicles do not perform or are claimed to not have performed as expected. As is true for other EV suppliers, we expect in the future that our vehicles will be involved in crashes resulting in death or personal injury. Additionally, product liability claims that affect our competitors or suppliers may cause indirect adverse publicity for us and our vehicles.

A successful product liability claim against us could require us to pay a substantial monetary award. Moreover, a product liability claim against us or our competitors could generate substantial negative publicity about our vehicles and business and could have a material adverse effect on our brand, business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. We may self-insure against the risk of product liability claims for vehicle exposure, meaning that any product liability claims will likely have to be paid from company funds, not by insurance.

Future product recalls could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Any product recall in the future, may result in negative publicity, damage our brand and materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. In the future, we may, voluntarily or involuntarily, initiate a recall if any of our vehicles, or components thereof, prove to be defective or noncompliant with applicable federal motor vehicle safety standards. If a large number of vehicles or components are the subject of a recall or if needed replacement parts are not in adequate supply, we may not be able to deploy recalled vehicles for a significant period of time. These types of disruptions could jeopardize our ability to fulfill existing contractual commitments or satisfy demand for our vehicles and could also result in the loss of business to our competitors. Such recalls also involve significant expense and diversion of management attention and other resources, which could adversely affect our brand image, as well as our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. Additionally, problems and defects experienced by other electric vehicles from other manufacturers could by association have a negative impact on perception and customer demand for our vehicles or battery packs.

If we are unable to establish and maintain confidence in our long-term business prospects among customers and analysts and within our industry, then our financial condition, operating results, business prospects and access to capital may suffer materially.

Customers may be less likely to purchase our vehicles if they are not convinced that our business will succeed or that our service and support and other operations will continue in the long term. Similarly, suppliers and other third parties will be less likely to invest time and resources in developing business relationships with us if they are not convinced that our business will succeed. Accordingly, in order to build and maintain our business, we must maintain confidence among customers, suppliers, analysts, ratings agencies and other parties in our vehicles, long-term financial viability and business prospects. Maintaining such confidence may be particularly complicated by certain factors including those that are largely outside of our control, such as our limited operating history, customer unfamiliarity with our vehicles, any delays in scaling manufacturing, delivery and service operations to meet demand, competition and uncertainty regarding the future of hybrid electric and vehicles, including our vehicles and our manufacturing and sales performance compared with market expectations, as well as negative publicity with respect to our competitors.

We have limited experience servicing our vehicles and our integrated software. If we are unable to adequately service our vehicles, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

Servicing EVs is different than servicing vehicles with internal combustion engines and requires specialized skills, including high voltage training and servicing techniques. If we are unable to roll out and establish a widespread service network that complies with applicable laws, customer satisfaction could be adversely affected, which in turn could materially and adversely affect our reputation and thus our sales, results of operations and prospects.

Our customers will also depend on our customer support team to resolve technical and operational issues relating to the integrated software underlying our vehicles. As we continue to grow, additional pressure may be placed on our customer support team or partners, and we may be unable to respond quickly enough to accommodate short-term increases in customer demand for technical support. We also may be unable to modify the future scope and delivery of our technical support to compete with changes in the technical support

Table of Contents

provided by our competitors. Increased customer demand for support, without corresponding revenue, could increase costs and negatively affect our operating results. If we are unable to successfully address the service requirements of our customers or establish a market perception that we do not maintain high-quality support, we may be subject to claims from our customers, including loss of revenue or damages, and our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

Our OHEVs rely on software and hardware that is highly technical, and if these systems contain errors, bugs or vulnerabilities, or if we are unsuccessful in addressing or mitigating technical limitations in our systems, our business could be adversely affected.

Our OHEVs rely on software and hardware that is highly technical and complex and will require modification and updates over the life of the vehicle. In addition, our vehicles depend on the ability of such software and hardware to store, retrieve, process and manage immense amounts of data. Our software and hardware may contain, errors, bugs or vulnerabilities, and our systems are subject to certain technical limitations that may compromise our ability to meet our objectives. Some errors, bugs or vulnerabilities inherently may be difficult to detect and may only be discovered after the code has been released for external or internal use. Errors, bugs, vulnerabilities, design defects or technical limitations may be found within our software and hardware. Although we attempt to remedy any issues we observe in our vehicles as effectively and rapidly as possible, such efforts may not be timely, may hamper production or may not be to the satisfaction of our customers. Additionally, if we are able to deploy updates to the software addressing any issues but our over-the-air update procedures fail to properly update the software, our customers would then be responsible for installing such updates to the software and their software will be subject to these vulnerabilities until they do so. If we are unable to prevent or effectively remedy errors, bugs, vulnerabilities or defects in our software and hardware, we may suffer damage to our reputation, loss of customers, loss of revenue or liability for damages, any of which could adversely affect our business and financial results.

We may need to defend ourselves against intellectual property infringement claims or misappropriation claims, which may be time-consuming and expensive and, if adversely determined, could limit our ability to commercialize our vehicles.

Companies, organizations or individuals, including our competitors, may own or obtain patents, trademarks or other proprietary rights that could prevent or limit our ability to make, use, develop or deploy our vehicles, which could make it more difficult for us to operate our business. We may receive inquiries from patent, copyright or trademark owners inquiring whether we infringe upon their proprietary rights. We may also be the subject of more formal allegations that we have misappropriated such parties’ trademark, trade secrets or other proprietary rights. See “Legal Proceedings.” Companies owning patents or other intellectual property rights relating to battery packs, electric motors, fuel cells or electronic power management systems may allege infringement or misappropriation of such rights. In response to a determination that we have infringed upon or misappropriated a third-party’s intellectual property rights, we may be required to do one or more of the following:

●

cease development, sales or use of our products that incorporate the asserted intellectual property;

●

pay substantial damages;

●

obtain a license from the owner of the asserted intellectual property right, which license may not be available on reasonable terms or available at all; or

●

re-design one or more aspects or systems of our vehicles.

A successful claim of infringement or misappropriation against us could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. Even if we are successful in defending against these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and demand on management resources.

We may not be able to obtain or agree on acceptable terms and conditions for all or a significant portion of the government grants, loans and other incentives for which we may apply. As a result, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected.

We anticipate applying for federal and state grants, loans and tax incentives under government programs designed to stimulate the economy and support the production of alternative fuel and electric vehicles and related technologies. We anticipate that in the future there will be new opportunities for us to apply for grants, loans and other incentives from federal, state and foreign governments. Our ability to obtain funds or incentives from government sources is subject to the availability of funds under applicable government programs and approval of our applications to participate in such programs. The application process for these funds and other incentives

Table of Contents

will likely be highly competitive. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in obtaining any of these additional grants, loans and other incentives or that we will be eligible for certain tax or other economic incentives.

Any reduction, elimination or discriminatory application of government subsidies and economic incentives because of policy changes, the reduced need for such subsidies and incentives due to the perceived success of the electric vehicle industry or other reasons may result in the diminished competitiveness of the alternative fuel and electric vehicle industry generally or our vehicles. While certain tax credits and other incentives for alternative energy production, alternative fuel and electric vehicles have been available in the past, there is no guarantee these programs will be available in the future. If current tax incentives are not available in the future, our financial position could be harmed.

Our success will depend on our key executive officers and other key personnel.

Our success will be largely dependent upon the continued employment of our key executive officer and other key personnel, particularly Vonn Christenson and Robert Cruess. The loss of Vonn Christenson and Robert Cruess’ services could have a material adverse effect on the implementation of our business plan. If we lose the services of our key executives, we would need to devote substantial resources to finding replacements, and until replacements were found, we would be operating without the skills or leadership of such personnel, any of which could have a significant adverse effect on our business. The unexpected loss of or failure to retain one or more of our key employees could adversely affect our business.

In addition, our future operating results will substantially depend upon our ability to attract and retain highly qualified management, financial, technical and administrative personnel. Experienced and highly skilled employees are in high demand and competition for these employees can be intense, and our ability to hire, attract and retain them depends on our ability to provide competitive compensation. We may not be able to attract, assimilate, develop or retain qualified personnel in the future, and our failure to do so could adversely affect our business, including the execution of our business strategy. Any failure by our management team and our employees to perform as expected may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

We, our outsourcing partners and our suppliers are subject to substantial regulation and unfavorable changes to, or failure by us, our outsourcing partners or our suppliers to comply with, these regulations could substantially harm our business and operating results.

We and our vehicles as well as our third-party outsourcing partners and our suppliers are or will be subject to substantial regulation under foreign, federal, state and local laws. We continue to evaluate requirements for licenses, approvals, certificates and governmental authorizations necessary to manufacture, deploy or service our vehicles in the jurisdictions in which we plan to operate and intend to take such actions necessary to comply. We may experience difficulties in obtaining or complying with various licenses, approvals, certifications and other governmental authorizations necessary to manufacture, deploy or service our vehicles in any of these jurisdictions.

If we, our third-party outsourcing partners or our suppliers are unable to obtain or comply with any of the licenses, approvals, certifications or other governmental authorizations necessary to carry out our operations in the jurisdictions in which we currently operate, or those jurisdictions in which we plan to operate in the future, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected. We expect to incur significant costs in complying with these regulations. Regulations related to the electric and alternative energy vehicle industry are evolving and we face risks associated with changes to these regulations, including, but not limited to:

●

increased support for other alternative fuel systems, which could have an impact on the acceptance of our vehicles; and

●

increased sensitivity by regulators to the needs of established automobile manufacturers with large employment bases, high fixed costs and business models based on the internal combustion engine, which could lead them to pass regulations that could reduce the compliance costs of such established manufacturers or mitigate the effects of government efforts to promote alternative fuel vehicles.

To the extent the laws change, our vehicles may not comply with applicable foreign, federal, state or local laws, which would have an adverse effect on our business. Compliance with changing regulations could be burdensome, time consuming and expensive. To the

Table of Contents

extent compliance with new regulations is cost prohibitive, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

Future changes to regulatory requirements may have a negative impact upon our business.

While our vehicles are subject to substantial regulation under federal, state and local laws, we believe that our vehicles are compliant with all applicable laws. However, to the extent the laws change, new laws are introduced, or if we introduce new vehicles in the future, some or all of our vehicles may not comply with applicable international federal, state or local laws. Further, certain federal, state and local laws and industry standards currently regulate electrical and electronics equipment. Although standards for electric vehicles are not yet generally available or accepted as industry standards, our vehicles may become subject to international, federal, state, and local regulation in the future. Compliance with these regulations could be burdensome, time consuming, and expensive. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our profitability by offsetting any increased costs of complying with future regulatory requirements.

Ongoing impacts from COVID-19 or another pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease may materially and adversely impact our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as well as other possible health pandemics, epidemics or outbreaks may materially and adversely impact our business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results. The pandemic has resulted in government authorities implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, stay-at-home or shelter-in-place orders, and business shutdowns. These measures may adversely impact our employees and operations and the operations of our suppliers, vendors and business partners, and may negatively impact our sales and marketing activities and the delivery schedule of our vehicles. In addition, various aspects of our business cannot be conducted remotely, including the testing and assembly of our vehicles. The spread of COVID-19 has also created a disruption in the manufacturing, delivery and overall supply chain of vehicle manufacturers and suppliers and has led to a global decrease in vehicle sales and usage in markets around the world.

We also depend on third-party suppliers and manufacturers in foreign countries. The COVID-19 pandemic could limit the ability of our customers, suppliers, vendors and business partners to perform, including third-party suppliers’ ability to provide components and materials used in our vehicles. We may also experience an increase in the cost of raw materials used in our manufacture of vehicles. Depending upon the duration of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the associated business interruptions, our customers, suppliers, manufacturers and partners may suspend or delay their engagement with us, which could result in a material adverse effect on its financial condition and ability to meet current timelines. Our response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic may prove to be inadequate and we may be unable to continue our operations in the manner we had prior to the outbreak, and may endure interruptions, reputational harm, delays in our product development and shipments, all of which could have an adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. In addition, when the pandemic subsides, we cannot assure you as to the timing of any economic recovery, which could continue to have a material adverse effect on our target markets and our business.

If the security of the personal information, confidential or proprietary information that we (or our service providers or vendors) collect, store or process is compromised or is otherwise accessed or acquired without authorization, our reputation may be harmed and we may be exposed to liability and loss of business, which could materially adversely affect our financial performance and results of operations or prospects.

We plan to collect, store, transmit and otherwise process data from vehicles, customers, employees and others as part of our business and operations, which may include personal, confidential or proprietary information. We also work with partners and third-party service providers or vendors that collect, store and process such data on our behalf and in connection with our vehicles. There can be no assurance that any security measures that we or our third-party service providers or vendors have implemented will be effective against current or future threats to such data. In addition, some of our employees are working remotely, which may pose additional data security risks. If a compromise of data were to occur, we may become liable under our contracts with other parties and under applicable law for damages and incur penalties and other costs to respond to, investigate and remedy such an incident. Our systems, networks and physical facilities could be breached, or data could otherwise be compromised. Third parties may also exploit vulnerabilities in, or obtain unauthorized access to, platforms, systems, networks and/or physical facilities utilized by our service providers and vendors.

Our vehicles contain complex information technology systems and built-in data connectivity to accept and install periodic remote updates to improve or update functionality. We have designed, implemented and tested security measures intended to prevent unauthorized access to our information technology networks, our vehicles and related systems. However, unauthorized actors may attempt to gain access to modify, alter and use such networks, vehicles and systems to gain control of or to change our vehicles’ functionality, user interface and performance characteristics, or to gain access to data stored in or generated by the vehicle. A significant

breach of our third-party service providers’ or vendors’ or our own network security and systems could have serious negative consequences for our business and future prospects, including possible fines, penalties and damages, reduced customer demand for our vehicles, regulatory investigations, litigation and harm to our reputation and brand. The risk of breach of our security measures or those of our third-party service providers and vendors has been heightened by advances in computer and software capabilities and the increasing sophistication of hackers who employ complex techniques, including, without limitation, the theft or misuse of personal information, counterfeiting, “phishing” or social engineering incidents, ransomware, extortion, publicly announcing security breaches, account takeover attacks, denial or degradation of service attacks and malware. Because the techniques used by bad actors change frequently, we or our third-party service providers or vendors may be unable to anticipate these techniques or implement adequate preventive measures. The costs to respond to a security breach and/or to mitigate any security vulnerabilities that may be identified could be significant, our efforts to address these problems may not be successful, and these problems could result in unexpected interruptions, delays, cessation of service, disrupt management’s attention, negative publicity or other harm to our business. We could be required to fundamentally change our business activities and practices in response to a security breach or related regulatory actions or litigation, which could have an adverse effect on our business.

We may have contractual and other legal obligations to notify individuals, regulatory authorities and others of security breaches involving certain types of data. Such laws may be inconsistent or change. New laws governing data breaches may be adopted. In addition, our agreements with certain customers may require us to notify them in the event of a security breach. Such mandatory disclosures are costly, could lead to negative publicity, divert management’s attention, result in penalties or fines, result in litigation, may cause our customers to lose confidence in the effectiveness of our security measures and require us to expend significant capital and other resources to respond to and alleviate problems caused by the actual or perceived security breach.

A security breach may cause us to breach our customer contracts. Our agreements with certain customers may require us to use industry-standard or reasonable measures to safeguard personal information. We also may be subject to laws that require us to use industry-standard or reasonable security measures to safeguard personal information. A security breach could lead to claims by our customers or other relevant stakeholders that we have failed to comply with such legal or contractual obligations. As a result, we could be subject to legal action or our customers could end their relationships with us. There can be no assurance that the limitations of liability in our contracts would be enforceable or adequate or would otherwise protect us from liabilities or damages.

We may not have adequate insurance coverage for security incidents or breaches or other failures to comply with obligations governing data privacy or security. The successful assertion of one or more large claims against us that exceeds our available insurance coverage, or results in changes to our insurance policies (including premium increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements), could have an adverse effect on our business. In addition, we cannot be sure that our existing insurance coverage will continue to be available on acceptable terms or that our insurers will not deny coverage as to any future claim.

We are subject to evolving laws, regulations, standards, policies, and contractual obligations related to data privacy and security, and our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations could harm our reputation, subject us to significant fines and liability, or otherwise adversely affect our business.

We may be subject to or affected by a number of federal, state and local laws and regulations, as well as contractual obligations and industry standards regarding the confidentiality, protection, and appropriate use of personal, proprietary or confidential information. Such obligations govern our collection, storage, retention, destruction, protection, use, processing, transmission, sharing and disclosure of personal information including that of our employees, customers and others. The global data protection landscape is rapidly evolving, and implementation standards and enforcement practices are likely to remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. We may not be able to monitor and react to all developments in a timely manner. Such frameworks could require notification of data breaches, restrict our use of governed information and hinder our ability to acquire new customers or market to existing customers.

In the United States, these frameworks include the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”), and other state and federal laws relating to privacy and data security. For example, California requires connected devices to maintain minimum information security standards. Additionally, the CCPA establishes a privacy framework for covered businesses, including an expansive definition of personal information and data privacy rights for California residents. The CCPA includes a framework with potentially severe statutory damages and private rights of action. The CCPA requires covered businesses to provide new disclosures to California residents, provide them new ways to opt-out of the sale of personal information, and provides a private right of action and potential statutory damages for data breaches. As we expand our operations, the CCPA may increase our compliance costs and potential liability. Some observers have noted that the CCPA could mark the beginning of a trend toward more stringent privacy legislation in the United States. Other jurisdictions in the United States have begun to propose similar laws. Compliance with any applicable privacy or data security laws and regulations is a rigorous and time-intensive process, and we may be required to put in place additional mechanisms to comply with such laws and

Table of Contents

regulations. Moreover, California voters recently approved the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, or CPRA, that went into effect on January 1, 2023. It is expected that the CPRA will, among other things, give California residents the ability to limit the use of their sensitive information, provide for penalties for CPRA violations concerning California residents under the age of 16, and establish a new California Privacy Protection Agency to implement and enforce the law. These laws exemplify our vulnerability to the evolving regulatory environment related to personal information.

We publish privacy policies and other documentation regarding our collection, processing, use and disclosure of personal information and/or other confidential information. Although we endeavor to comply with our published policies and other documentation, we may at times fail to do so or may be perceived to have failed to do so. Moreover, despite our efforts, we may not be successful in achieving compliance if our employees, contractors, service providers or vendors fail to comply with our published policies and documentation. Such failures can subject us to potential local, state and federal action if they are found to be deceptive, unfair, or misrepresentative of our actual practices.

Complying with privacy and data protection laws and regulations or other obligations may cause us to incur substantial operational costs or require us to change our business practices. Despite our efforts to bring practices into compliance with these laws and regulations, we may not be successful in our efforts to achieve compliance either due to internal or external factors such as resource allocation limitations or a lack of vendor cooperation. Because the interpretation and application of privacy and data protection laws are uncertain, it is possible that these laws and other actual or alleged legal obligations, such as contractual or self-regulatory obligations, may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent with our existing data management practices or in a manner inconsistent across the jurisdictions in which we operate. Noncompliance could result in proceedings against us by governmental and regulatory entities, customers, data subjects or others. Any inability to adequately address privacy or information security concerns, even if unfounded, or comply with applicable privacy or data protection laws, regulations, and policies, could result in additional cost and liability to us, damage our reputation, necessitate a change in our business practices, inhibit sales, and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

We are subject to various environmental laws and regulations that could impose substantial costs upon us.

Our operations are and will be subject to international, federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, including laws relating to the use, handling, storage, disposal of and human exposure to hazardous materials. Environmental and health and safety laws and regulations can be complex, and, while we are striving for compliance with all of them, we have limited experience in compliance. Moreover, we expect that we will be affected by future amendments to such laws or other new environmental and health and safety laws and regulations which may require us to change our operations, potentially resulting in a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. These laws can give rise to liability for administrative oversight costs, cleanup costs, property damage, bodily injury, fines and penalties. Capital and operating expenses needed to comply with environmental laws and regulations can be significant, and violations may result in substantial fines and penalties, third-party damages, suspension of production or a cessation of our operations.

Contamination at properties we own, will own or operate, we formerly owned or operated or to which hazardous substances were sent by us, may result in liability for us under environmental laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, which can impose liability for the full amount of remediation-related costs without regard to fault, for the investigation and cleanup of contaminated soil and ground water, for building contamination and impacts to human health and for damages to natural resources. The costs of complying with environmental laws and regulations and any claims concerning noncompliance, or liability with respect to contamination in the future, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or operating results.

Our ability to use net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes may be limited in connection with the Business Combination or other ownership changes.

We have incurred losses during our history and do not expect to become profitable soon and may never achieve profitability. To the extent that we and New ZeroNox continue to generate taxable losses, unused losses will carry forward to offset future taxable income, if any, until such unused losses expire, if at all.

Under the Tax Act, as modified by the CARES Act, U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards generated in taxable periods beginning after December 31, 2017, may be carried forward indefinitely, but the deductibility of such net operating loss carryforwards in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2020, is limited to 80% of taxable income. It is uncertain if and to what extent various states will conform to the Tax Act or the CARES Act.

Table of Contents

In addition, our and New ZeroNox’s net operating loss carryforwards are subject to review and possible adjustment by the IRS, and state tax authorities. Under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), these federal net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes may become subject to an annual limitation in the event of certain cumulative changes in our or New ZeroNox’s ownership. An “ownership change” pursuant to Section 382 of the Code generally occurs if one or more stockholders or groups of stockholders who own at least 5% of a company’s stock increase their ownership by more than 50 percentage points over their lowest ownership percentage within a rolling three-year period. The ability of us or New ZeroNox utilize net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes to offset future taxable income or tax liabilities may be limited as a result of ownership changes, including potential changes in connection with the Business Combination or other transactions. Similar rules may apply under state tax laws. We have not yet determined the amount of the cumulative change in our ownership resulting from the Business Combination or other transactions, or any resulting limitations on our ability to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes. If we or New ZeroNox earn taxable income, such limitations could result in increased future income tax liability to us or New ZeroNox and our future cash flows could be adversely affected. We have recorded a full valuation allowance related to our net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of the ultimate realization of the future benefits of those assets.

Changes in U.S. trade policy, including the imposition of tariffs and the resulting consequences and trade war with China, could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

The U.S. government has previously imposed tariffs on certain foreign goods, including vehicle parts, which have resulted in increased costs for goods imported into the United States. In response to these tariffs, a number of U.S. trading partners have imposed retaliatory tariffs on a wide range of U.S. products, which makes it more costly for us to export our vehicles to those countries. Any change in government policy in this regard may result in substantial regulatory uncertainty regarding international trade and trade policy.

U.S. policies have called for substantial changes to trade agreements, have increased tariffs on certain goods imported into the U.S. and have raised the possibility of imposing significant, additional tariff increases. If we are unable to pass price increases on to our customer base or otherwise mitigate the costs, or if demand for our exported vehicles decreases due to the higher cost, our operating results could be materially adversely affected. While we cannot predict the extent to which the U.S. or other countries will impose quotas, duties, tariffs, taxes or other similar restrictions upon the import or export of our products in the future, a “trade war” of this nature or other governmental action related to tariffs or international trade agreements could have an adverse impact on demand for our services, sales and clients and affect the economies of the U.S. and various countries, having an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Some of our OEMs are in China. See section entitled, “Information About ZeroNox – Material Agreements.”

We are subject to governmental export and import controls and laws that could subject us to liability if we are not in compliance with such laws.

Our vehicles are subject to export control, import and economic sanctions laws and regulations, including the U.S. Export Administration Regulations, U.S. Customs regulations and various economic and trade sanctions regulations administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. Exports of our vehicles and technology must be made in compliance with these laws and regulations. If we fail to comply with these laws and regulations, we and certain of our employees could be subject to substantial civil or criminal penalties, including the possible loss of export or import privileges; fines, which may be imposed on us and responsible employees or managers; and, in extreme cases, the incarceration of responsible employees or managers.

In addition, changes to our vehicles, or changes in applicable export control, import, or economic sanctions laws and regulations may create delays in the introduction and sale of our vehicles and solutions or, in some cases, prevent the export or import of our vehicles to certain countries, governments, or persons altogether. Any change in export, import, or economic sanctions laws and regulations, shift in the enforcement or scope of existing laws and regulations, or change in the countries, governments, persons, or technologies targeted by such laws and regulations, could also result in decreased use of our vehicles, as well as our decreased ability to export or market our vehicles to potential customers. Any decreased use of our vehicles or limitation on our ability to export or market our vehicles would likely adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, the U.S. domestic bribery statute contained in 18 U.S.C. § 201, the U.S. Travel Act, the USA PATRIOT Act and possibly other anti-bribery and anti-money laundering laws in countries in which we conduct activities. Anti-corruption laws are interpreted broadly and prohibit companies and their employees, agents,

Table of Contents

contractors and other collaborators from authorizing, promising, offering or providing, directly or indirectly, improper payments or anything else of value to recipients in the public or private sector. We can be held liable for the corrupt or other illegal activities of our employees, agents, contractors and other collaborators, even if we do not explicitly authorize or have actual knowledge of such activities. Any violations of the laws and regulations described above may result in substantial civil and criminal fines and penalties, imprisonment, the loss of export or import privileges, debarment, tax reassessments, breach of contract and fraud litigation, reputational harm and other consequences.

Risks Related to the Business Combination and G4G

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this subsection to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to G4G prior to the consummation of the Business Combination and New ZeroNox following the consummation of the Business Combination.

We have no operating history and no operating revenues, and you have no basis on which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective.

Because we lack an operating history, you have no basis upon which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective of completing our initial business combination with one or more target businesses. We have no plans, arrangements or understandings with any prospective target business concerning a business combination and may be unable to complete our initial business combination. If we fail to complete our initial business combination, we will never generate any operating revenues.

The Sponsor and members of our management team have agreed to vote in favor of such initial business combination, regardless of how our public shareholders vote.

The Sponsor and members of our management team also may from time to time purchase G4G Class A ordinary shares prior to our initial business combination. Our Cayman Constitutional Documents provide that, if we seek shareholder approval, we will complete our initial business combination only if we obtain the approval of an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at a general meeting. As a result, in addition to our initial shareholders’ Founder Shares, we would need 9,487,501, or 37.5% (assuming all issued and outstanding shares are voted), or 1,581,251, or 6.25% (assuming only the minimum number of shares representing a quorum are voted), of the 25,300,000 public shares issued and outstanding as of March 20, 2023 to be voted in favor of an initial business combination in order to have our initial business combination approved. Accordingly, if we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination, the agreement by our Sponsor and each member of our management team to vote in favor of our initial business combination will increase the likelihood that we will receive the requisite shareholder approval for such initial business combination.

Our ability to seek an alternative business combination is limited even if we determined the Business Combination is no longer in our shareholders’ best interest.

If we do not obtain shareholder approval at the extraordinary general meeting, ZeroNox can continually obligate us to hold additional extraordinary general meetings to vote on the Condition Precedent Proposals until the earlier of such shareholder approval being obtained and the Agreement End Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement). This could limit our ability to seek an alternative business combination that our shareholders may prefer after such initial vote.

Since the Sponsor and G4G’s directors and executive officers have interests that are different, or in addition to (and which may conflict with), the interests of our shareholders, a conflict of interest may have existed in determining whether the Business Combination with ZeroNox is appropriate as our initial business combination. Such interests include that Sponsor will lose its entire investment in us if our business combination is not completed.

number of Founder Shares issued was determined based on the expectation that such Founder Shares would represent 20% of the issued and outstanding shares (excluding G4G Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units) upon completion of the initial public offering. Up to 825,000 Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option on December 14, 2021, none of the shares were forfeited and none of the 6,325,000 G4G Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding remain subject to forfeiture (excluding such shares subject to forfeiture pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement). The Founder Shares (including G4G Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion thereof) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder.

●

Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, G4G completed the private sale of an aggregate of 800,000 private placement units to the Sponsor for a purchase price of $10.00 per private placement unit, generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000. Each private placement unit consists of one G4G Class A ordinary share, and one-half of one redeemable warrant with each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one G4G Class A ordinary share for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The private placement units (including G4G Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrant included therein) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder until 30 days after the completion of an initial business combination.

●

The Sponsor (including its representatives and affiliates) and G4G’s directors and officers, are, or may in the future become, affiliated with entities that are engaged in a similar business to G4G. The Sponsor and G4G’s directors and officers are not prohibited from sponsoring, or otherwise becoming involved with, any other blank check companies prior to G4G completing its initial business combination. Moreover, certain of G4G’s directors and officers have time and attention requirements for investment funds of which affiliates of the Sponsor are the investment managers. G4G’s directors and officers also may become aware of business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to G4G, and the other entities to which they owe certain fiduciary or contractual duties. Accordingly, they may have had conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. These conflicts may not be resolved in G4G’s favor and such potential business opportunities may be presented to other entities prior to their presentation to G4G, subject to applicable fiduciary duties under the Cayman Islands Companies Act. G4G’s Cayman Constitutional Documents provide that G4G renounces its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer of G4G.

●

G4G’s existing directors and officers will be eligible for continued indemnification and continued coverage under G4G’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination and pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

●

Yana Watson Kakar and Dana Barsky, current directors of G4G, are expected to be directors of New ZeroNox after the consummation of the Business Combination. As such, in the future, each of Ms. Kakar and Ms. Barsky may receive fees for her service as a director, which may consist of cash or stock-based awards, and any other remuneration that the New ZeroNox board of directors determines to pay to its non-employee directors.

●

The Sponsor may transfer certain of its G4G Class B ordinary shares to G4G’s directors or advisors, or their affiliates, in conjunction with an initial business combination in the event such parties bring specific target company, industry or market expertise, as well as insights or relationships that G4G believe are necessary in order to locate, assess, negotiate and consummate an initial business combination. In addition, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on G4G’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. G4G audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by G4G to the Sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on G4G’s behalf.

●

Prior to the closing of G4G’s initial public offering, the Sponsor loaned G4G $237,784 under an unsecured promissory note, which were used for a portion of the expenses of the initial public offering. The loans were fully repaid upon the closing of the initial public offering.

●

Table of Contents

used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into private placement units at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. The units would be identical to the private placement units. The terms of such loans by G4G’s officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. G4G does not expect to seek loans from parties other than the Sponsor, its affiliates or G4G’s management team as G4G does not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in the trust account.

●

After G4G’s initial business combination, members of G4G’s management team who remain with G4G may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to G4G’s shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, furnished to G4G’s shareholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of distribution of such tender offer materials or at the time of a general meeting held to consider an initial business combination, as applicable, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation.

●

G4G has entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which the Sponsor is entitled to certain registration rights with respect to the private placement units, the units issuable upon conversion of working capital loans (if any), G4G Class A ordinary shares and warrants contained therein and G4G Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the foregoing. G4G will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of G4G’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. In addition, G4G’s officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section entitled “BCA Proposal — Interests of G4G’s Directors and Officers in the Business Combination” for a further discussion of these considerations.

The personal and financial interests of the Sponsor and G4G’s directors and officers may have influenced their motivation in identifying and selecting ZeroNox as a business combination target, completing an initial business combination with ZeroNox and influencing the operation of the business following the initial business combination. In considering the recommendations of the G4G Board to vote for the proposals, its shareholders should consider these interests.

Our letter agreement with the Sponsor, directors, officers and senior advisors may be amended without shareholder approval.

Our letter agreement with the Sponsor, directors, officers and senior advisors contains provisions relating to transfer restrictions of our Founder Shares and private placement units, the vesting of 25% of the Founder Shares held by the Sponsor, indemnification of the trust account, waiver of redemption rights and participation in liquidating distributions from the trust account. The letter agreement may be amended without shareholder approval. While we do not expect our board to approve any amendment to the letter agreement prior to our initial business combination, it may be possible that our board, in exercising its business judgment, and subject to its fiduciary duties, chooses to approve one or more amendments to the letter agreement. Any such amendments to the letter agreement would not require approval from our shareholders and may have an adverse effect on the value of an investment in our securities.

The exercise of G4G’s directors’ and executive officers’ discretion in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the Business Combination may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes to the terms of the Business Combination or waivers of conditions are appropriate and in G4G’s shareholders’ best interest.

In the period leading up to the Closing, events may occur that, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, would require G4G to agree to amend the Merger Agreement, to consent to certain actions taken by ZeroNox or to waive rights that G4G is entitled to under the Merger Agreement. Such events could arise because of changes in the course of ZeroNox’s business or a request by ZeroNox to undertake actions that would otherwise be prohibited by the terms of the Merger Agreement. In any of such circumstances, it would be at G4G’s discretion to grant its consent or waive those rights. The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of the directors or officers described in the preceding risk factors (and described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus) may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) or officers(s) between what he, she or they may believe is best for G4G and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining whether or not to take the requested action.

We and ZeroNox will incur significant transaction and transition costs in connection with the Business Combination.

We and ZeroNox have both incurred and expect to incur significant, non-recurring costs in connection with consummating the Business Combination and operating as a public company following the consummation of the Business Combination. We and ZeroNox may also incur additional costs to retain key employees. Certain transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement (including the Business Combination), including all legal, accounting, consulting, investment banking and other fees, expenses and costs, will be paid by New ZeroNox following the closing of the Business Combination.

Our ability to successfully effect the Business Combination and to be successful thereafter will be totally dependent upon the efforts of our key personnel, some of whom may join us following the Business Combination. The loss of key personnel could negatively impact the operations and profitability of our post-combination business.

Our ability to successfully effect the Business Combination is dependent upon the efforts of our key personnel. We believe our success depends on the continued service of our key personnel, at least until we have consummated our initial business combination. None of our officers is required to commit any specified amount of time to our affairs and, accordingly, they will have conflicts of interest in allocating management time among various business activities, including identifying potential business combinations and monitoring the related due diligence. If our officers’ and directors’ other business affairs require them to devote more substantial amounts of time to their other business activities, it could limit their ability to devote time to our affairs and could have a negative impact on our ability to consummate our initial business combination. In addition, we do not have any key-man insurance on the life of, any of our officers. The unexpected loss of the services of our key personnel could have a detrimental effect on us.

The role of our and ZeroNox’s key personnel after the Business Combination, however, remains to be determined. Although some of our key personnel serve in senior management or advisory positions following the Business Combination, it is likely that most of, if not all, the management of ZeroNox will remain in place. These individuals may be unfamiliar with the requirements of operating a public company which could cause us to have to expend time and resources helping them become familiar with such requirements. This could be expensive and time-consuming, and could lead to various regulatory issues which may adversely affect our operations.

The officers and directors of ZeroNox may resign upon completion of the Business Combination. The loss of our or ZeroNox’s key personnel could negatively impact the operations and profitability of our post-combination business.

The role of our and ZeroNox’s key personnel upon the completion of the Business Combination cannot be ascertained at this time. Although we contemplate that certain members of our and ZeroNox’s management team will remain associated with New ZeroNox following our Business Combination, it is possible that members of the management of ZeroNox will not wish to remain in place.

Our management may not be able to maintain control of a target business after the Business Combination. Upon the loss of control of a target business, new management may not possess the skills, qualifications or abilities necessary to profitably operate such business.

We have structured our initial business combination so that the post-business combination company in which our public shareholders own shares will own less than 100% of the equity interests or assets of a target business. As a result of the issuance of a substantial number of new Class A ordinary shares, our shareholders immediately prior to such transaction could own less than a majority of our outstanding Class A ordinary shares subsequent to such transaction. In addition, other minority shareholders may subsequently combine their holdings resulting in a single person or group obtaining a larger share of the company’s shares than we initially acquired. Accordingly, this may make it more likely that our management will not be able to maintain control of the target business.

The announcement of the proposed Business Combination could disrupt New ZeroNox’s relationships with its customers, suppliers, business partners and others, as well as its operating results and business generally.

Whether or not the Business Combination and related transactions are ultimately consummated, as a result of uncertainty related to the proposed transactions, risks relating to the impact of the announcement of the Business Combination on New ZeroNox’s business include the following:

●

its employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles, which might adversely affect New ZeroNox’s ability to retain and hire key personnel and other employees;

Table of Contents

●

customers, suppliers, business partners and other parties with which New ZeroNox maintains business relationships may experience uncertainty about its future and seek alternative relationships with third parties, seek to alter their business relationships with New ZeroNox or fail to extend an existing relationship with New ZeroNox; and

●

New ZeroNox has expended and will continue to expend significant costs, fees and expenses for professional services and transaction costs in connection with the proposed Business Combination.

If any of the aforementioned risks were to materialize, they could lead to significant costs which may impact New ZeroNox’s results of operations and cash available to fund its business.

Subsequent to our completion of the Business Combination, New ZeroNox may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on our financial condition, results of operations and the price of our securities, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.

Even if we conduct extensive due diligence on ZeroNox, we cannot assure you that this diligence will identify all material issues with the particular business, that it would be possible to uncover all material issues through a customary amount of due diligence or that factors outside of ZeroNox’s business and outside of our control will not later arise. As a result of these factors, we may be forced to later write-down or write-off assets, restructure our operations or incur impairment or other charges that could result in our reporting losses. Even if our due diligence successfully identifies certain risks, unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize in a manner not consistent with our preliminary risk analysis. Even though these charges may be non-cash items and not have an immediate impact on our liquidity, the fact that we report charges of this nature could contribute to negative market perceptions about us or our securities. In addition, charges of this nature may cause us to violate net worth or other covenants to which we may be subject as a result of assuming pre-existing debt held by a target business or by virtue of our obtaining post-combination debt financing. Accordingly, any holders who choose to retain their securities following the business combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their securities. Such holders are unlikely to have a remedy for such reduction in value.

We may have a limited ability to assess the management of ZeroNox and, as a result, may affect the Business Combination with ZeroNox whose management may not have the skills, qualifications or abilities to manage a public company.

When evaluating the desirability of effecting the Business Combination with ZeroNox, our ability to assess the ZeroNox’s management may be limited due to a lack of time, resources or information. Our assessment of the capabilities of the ZeroNox’s management, therefore, may prove to be incorrect and such management may lack the skills, qualifications or abilities we suspected. Should the ZeroNox’s management not possess the skills, qualifications or abilities necessary to manage a public company, the operations and profitability of the post-combination business may be negatively impacted. Accordingly, any holders who choose to retain their securities following the business combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their securities. Such holders are unlikely to have a remedy for such reduction in value.

Any due diligence in connection with the Business Combination may not reveal all relevant considerations or liabilities of ZeroNox, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

The due diligence undertaken with respect to the Business Combination may not reveal all relevant facts that may be necessary to evaluate such transaction or to formulate a business strategy. Furthermore, the information provided during due diligence may not be adequate or accurate. As part of the due diligence process, we will also make subjective judgments regarding the results of operations, financial condition and prospects of a potential initial business combination, and these judgments may be inaccurate.

Due diligence conducted in connection with the Business Combination may not result in the Business Combination being successful. If the due diligence investigation fails to identify material information regarding an opportunity, or if we consider such material risks to be commercially acceptable relative to the opportunity, and we proceed with the Business Combination, our company may subsequently incur substantial impairment charges or other losses. In addition, following the Business Combination, we may be subject to significant, previously undisclosed liabilities of the acquired business that were not identified during due diligence and which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We may issue notes or other debt securities, or otherwise incur substantial debt, to complete the Business Combination, which may adversely affect our leverage and financial condition and, thus, negatively impact the value of our shareholders’ investment in us.

We may choose to incur substantial debt to complete the Business Combination. We and our officers have agreed that we will not incur any indebtedness unless we have obtained from the lender a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to the

Table of Contents

monies held in the trust account. As such, no issuance of debt will affect the per-share amount available for redemption from the trust account. Nevertheless, the incurrence of debt could have a variety of negative effects, including:

●

default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an initial business combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;

●

acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we make all principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain covenants that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;

●

our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt is payable on demand;

●

our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the debt is outstanding;

●

our inability to pay dividends on our Class A ordinary shares;

●

using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our Class A ordinary shares if declared, expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;

●

limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate;

●

increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and

●

limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our strategy and other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.

The unaudited pro forma financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus may not be indicative of what New ZeroNox’s actual financial position or results of operations would have been.

The unaudited pro forma financial information in this proxy statement/prospectus is presented for illustrative purposes only and has been prepared based on a number of assumptions including, but not limited to, G4G being treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes in the Business Combination, the total debt obligations and the cash and cash equivalents of ZeroNox on the Closing Date and the number of G4G Class A ordinary shares that are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination. Accordingly, such pro forma financial information may not be indicative of New ZeroNox’s future operating or financial performance and New ZeroNox’s actual financial condition and results of operations may vary materially from New ZeroNox’s pro forma results of operations and balance sheet contained elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus, including as a result of such assumptions not being accurate. See “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”

The ZeroNox projected financial information considered by G4G may not be realized, which may adversely affect the market price of New ZeroNox common stock following the completion of the Business Combination.

In performing its financial analyses, G4G relied on, among other things, certain information, including the forecasts and financial projections described in the section titled “BCA Proposal — Projected Financial Information.” The ZeroNox forecasts and financial projections were prepared by, or at the direction of, the management of ZeroNox. None of these projections or forecasts were prepared with a view towards public disclosure or compliance with the published guidelines of the SEC, U.S. GAAP or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of financial forecasts. These projections and forecasts are inherently based on various estimates and assumptions that are subject to the judgment of those preparing them. These projections and forecasts are also subject to significant economic, competitive, industry and other uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict and many of which are beyond the control of ZeroNox. There can be no assurance that ZeroNox’s financial condition, including its cash flows or results of operations will be consistent with those set forth in such projections and forecasts, which could have an adverse impact on the market price of New ZeroNox common stock or the financial position of ZeroNox following the Business Combination.

The Sponsor, directors, executive officers, advisors and their affiliates may elect to purchase public shares, rights or warrants, which may influence a vote on the Business Combination and reduce the public “float” of our Class A ordinary shares or public warrants.

If we seek shareholder approval of the Business Combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with the Business Combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Sponsor, directors, executive officers, advisors or their affiliates may purchase public shares, rights or warrants in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the completion of the Business Combination, although they are under no obligation to do so. However, they have no current commitments, plans or intentions to engage in such transactions and have not formulated any terms or conditions for any such transactions. None of the funds in the trust account will be used to purchase public shares, rights or warrants in such transactions.

In the event that the Sponsor, directors, executive officers, advisors or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. The purpose of any such transaction could be to (1) vote in favor of the business combination and thereby increase the likelihood of obtaining shareholder approval of the business combination, (2) reduce the number of public warrants outstanding or vote such warrants on any matters submitted to the warrant holders for approval in connection with our initial business combination, (3) reduce the number of rights outstanding or vote such rights on any matters submitted to the rights holders for approval in connection with our initial business combination or (4) satisfy a closing condition in an agreement with a target that requires us to have a minimum net worth or a certain amount of cash at the closing of our initial business combination, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. Any such purchases of our securities may result in the completion of our initial business combination that may not otherwise have been possible. In addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of the G4G Class A ordinary shares, rights or public warrants may be reduced and the number of beneficial holders of our securities may be reduced, which may make it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of our securities on a national securities exchange. Any such purchases will be reported pursuant to Section 13 and Section 16 of the Exchange Act to the extent such purchasers are subject to such reporting requirements.

If a shareholder fails to receive notice of our offer to redeem our public shares in connection with our initial business combination, or fails to comply with the procedures for tendering its shares, such shares may not be redeemed.

We will comply with the proxy rules or tender offer rules, as applicable, when conducting redemptions in connection with our initial business combination. Despite our compliance with these rules, if a shareholder fails to receive our proxy solicitation or tender offer materials, as applicable, such shareholder may not become aware of the opportunity to redeem its shares. In addition, the proxy solicitation or tender offer materials, as applicable, that we will furnish to holders of our public shares in connection with our initial business combination will describe the various procedures that must be complied with in order to validly redeem or tender public shares. In the event that a shareholder fails to comply with these procedures, its shares may not be redeemed.

In connection with the Closing, we are not registering the shares of New ZeroNox common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants under the Securities Act or any state securities laws at this time, and such registration may not be in place when an investor desires to exercise warrants, thus precluding such investor from being able to exercise its warrants and resell the underlying shares.

We are not registering the shares of New ZeroNox common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants under the Securities Act or any state securities laws at this time. However, under the terms of the Warrant Agreement, we have agreed that, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of our initial business combination, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the issuance of such shares, and we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days after the closing of our initial business combination and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those shares of New ZeroNox common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed. We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so if, for example, any facts or events arise which represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement or prospectus, the financial statements contained or incorporated by reference therein are not current, complete or correct or the SEC issues a stop order. If New ZeroNox’s common stock is at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event we so elect, we will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any warrant, or issue securities or other compensation in exchange for the warrants in the event that we are unable to register or qualify the shares underlying the warrants under applicable state securities laws and no exemption is available. If the issuance of the shares upon exercise of the warrants is not so registered or qualified or exempt from registration or qualification, the holder of such warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In such event, holders

Table of Contents

who acquired their warrants as part of a purchase of units will have paid the full unit purchase price solely for the shares of New ZeroNox common stock included in the units. There may be a circumstance where an exemption from registration exists for holders of our private placement warrants to exercise their warrants while a corresponding exemption does not exist for holders of the public warrants. In such an instance, the Sponsor and its permitted transferees (which may include our directors and executive officers) would be able to exercise their warrants and sell the ordinary shares underlying their warrants while holders of our public warrants would not be able to exercise their warrants and sell the underlying ordinary shares. If and when the warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying shares of New ZeroNox common stock for sale under all applicable state securities laws. As a result, we may redeem the warrants as set forth above even if the holders are otherwise unable to exercise their warrants.

If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the trust account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per public share.

Our placing of funds in the trust account may not protect those funds from third-party claims against us. Although we will seek to have all vendors, service providers (other than our independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses and other entities with which we do business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the trust account for the benefit of our public shareholders, such parties may not execute such agreements, or even if they execute such agreements, they may not be prevented from bringing claims against the trust account, including, but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain advantage with respect to a claim against our assets, including the funds held in the trust account. If any third-party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the trust account, our management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will enter into an agreement only with a third-party that has not executed a waiver if management believes such third-party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to us than any alternative.

Examples of possible instances where we may engage a third-party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third-party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason. Upon redemption of our public shares, if we have not completed our initial business combination by the Liquidation Date, or upon the exercise of a redemption right in connection with our initial business combination, we will be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against us within the 10 years following redemption. Accordingly, the per-share redemption amount received by public shareholders could be less than the $10.00 per public share initially held in the trust account, due to claims of such creditors. Pursuant to the letter agreement which is filed by reference with this Report, our Sponsor has agreed it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a third-party (other than our independent auditors) for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the trust account to below the lesser of (a) $10.00 per public share and (b) the actual amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account if less than $10.00 per public share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay our tax obligations; provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third-party or prospective target business that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account nor will it apply to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of the initial public offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Moreover, in the event an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third-party, our Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims.

However, we have not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor have we independently verified whether our Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and we believe our Sponsor’s only assets are securities of our company. Therefore, we cannot assure you that our Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the trust account, the funds available for our initial business combination and redemptions could be reduced to less than $10.00 per public share. In such event, we may not be able to complete our initial business combination, and you would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any redemption of your public shares. None of our officers or directors will indemnify us for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

Table of Contents

The securities in which we invest the proceeds held in the trust account could bear a negative rate of interest, which could reduce the interest income available for payment of taxes or reduce the value of the assets held in trust such that the per share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share.

The proceeds held in the trust account may only be invested in direct U.S. Treasury obligations only having a maturity of 185 days or less, or in certain money market funds which invest only in direct U.S. Treasury obligations. While short-term U.S. Treasury obligations currently yield a positive rate of interest, they have briefly yielded negative interest rates in recent years. Central banks in Europe and Japan pursued interest rates below zero in recent years, and the Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve has not ruled out the possibility that it may in the future adopt similar policies in the United States. In the event of very low or negative yields, the amount of interest income (which we may withdraw to pay income taxes, if any) would be reduced. In the event we are unable to complete our initial business combination, our public shareholders are entitled to receive their pro-rata share of the proceeds held in the trust account, plus any interest income. If the balance of the trust account is reduced below $261,000,000 as a result of negative interest rates, the amount of funds in the trust account available for distribution to our public shareholders may be reduced below $10.00 per share. Negative interest rates could also reduce the amount of funds we have available to complete our initial business combination.

Our directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of our Sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the trust account available for distribution to our public shareholders.

In the event the proceeds in the trust account are reduced below the lesser of (a) $10.00 per public share and (b) the actual amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account if less than $10.00 per public share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay our tax obligations, and our Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, our independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against our Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While we currently expect that our independent directors would take legal action on our behalf against our Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to us, it is possible that our independent directors in exercising their business judgment and subject to their fiduciary duties may choose not to do so in any particular instance. If our independent directors choose not to enforce these indemnification obligations, the amount of funds in the trust account available for distribution to our public shareholders may be reduced below $10.00 per public share.

We may not have sufficient funds to satisfy indemnification claims of our directors and executive officers.

We have agreed to indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law. However, our officers and directors have agreed to waive any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the trust account and to not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason whatsoever (except to the extent they are entitled to funds from the trust account due to their ownership of public shares in the event we do not consummate an initial business combination within the completion window). Accordingly, any indemnification provided will be able to be satisfied by us only if (a) we have sufficient funds outside of the trust account or (b) we consummate an initial business combination. Our obligation to indemnify our officers and directors may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against our officers or directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against our officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our shareholders. Furthermore, a shareholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against our officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

If, after we distribute the proceeds in the trust account to our public shareholders, we file a bankruptcy or winding-up petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or winding-up petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, a bankruptcy or insolvency court may seek to recover such proceeds, and the members of our board of directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to our creditors, thereby exposing the members of our board of directors and us to claims of punitive damages.

If, after we distribute the proceeds in the trust account to our public shareholders, we file a bankruptcy or winding-up petition, or an involuntary bankruptcy or winding-up petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy or insolvency laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance, preference or disposition.” As a result, a bankruptcy or insolvency court could seek to recover some or all amounts received by our shareholders. In addition, our board of directors may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to our creditors and/or having acted in bad faith, thereby exposing itself and us to claims of punitive damages, by paying public shareholders from the trust account prior to addressing the claims of creditors.

Table of Contents

If, before distributing the proceeds in the trust account to our public shareholders, we file a bankruptcy or winding-up petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or winding-up petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of our shareholders and the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our shareholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.

If, before distributing the proceeds in the trust account to our public shareholders, we file a bankruptcy or winding-up petition, or an involuntary bankruptcy or winding-up petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the trust account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law, and may be included in our bankruptcy or insolvency estate, and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our shareholders. To the extent any bankruptcy or insolvency claims deplete the trust account, the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our shareholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.

Our shareholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against us to the extent of distributions received by them upon redemption of their shares.

If we are forced to enter into an insolvent liquidation, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed as an unlawful payment if it was proved that, immediately following the date on which the distribution was made, we were unable to pay our debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. As a result, a liquidator could seek to recover some or all amounts received by our shareholders. Furthermore, our directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to us or our creditors and/or may have acted in bad faith, thereby exposing themselves and our company to claims, by paying public shareholders from the trust account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. We cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against us for these reasons. We and our directors and officers who knowingly and willfully authorized or permitted any distribution to be paid out of our share premium account while we were unable to pay our debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business would be guilty of an offense, and may be liable for a fine of $18,292.68 and imprisonment for five years in the Cayman Islands.

We may not hold an annual general meeting until after the consummation of our initial business combination.

In accordance with Nasdaq corporate governance requirements, we are not required to hold an annual general meeting until one year after our first fiscal year end following our listing on Nasdaq. There is no requirement under the Cayman Islands Companies Act for us to hold annual or extraordinary general meetings to appoint directors. Until we hold an annual general meeting, public shareholders may not be afforded the opportunity to appoint directors and to discuss company affairs with management. Our board of directors is divided into three classes, with only one class of directors being appointed in each year and each class (except for those directors appointed prior to our first annual general meeting) serving a three-year term.

You will not be permitted to exercise your warrants unless we register and qualify the issuance of the underlying G4G Class A ordinary shares or certain exemptions are available.

Pursuant to terms of the warrant agreement, we have agreed that, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days after the closing of our initial business combination, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement related to the initial public offering, or a new registration statement covering the issuance of such shares, and we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days after the closing of our initial business combination, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed. We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so if, for example, any facts or events arise which represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement or prospectus, the financial statements contained or incorporated by reference therein are not current, complete or correct, or the SEC issues a stop order. If the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants are not registered under the Securities Act in accordance with the above requirements, we will be required to permit holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, in which case the number of Class A ordinary shares that you will receive upon cashless exercise will be based on a formula. However, no warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and we will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available. Notwithstanding the above, if our Class A ordinary shares are, at the time of any exercise of a warrant, not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, and, in the event we so elect, we will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. Exercising the warrants on a cashless basis could have the effect of reducing the potential “upside” of the holder’s investment in our company because the warrant holder will hold a smaller number of Class A ordinary

Table of Contents

shares upon a cashless exercise of the warrants they hold. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any warrant, or issue securities or other compensation in exchange for the warrants in the event we are unable to register or qualify the shares underlying the warrants under applicable state securities laws and no exemption is available. If the issuance of the shares upon exercise of the warrants is not so registered or qualified, nor exempt from registration or qualification, the holder of such warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such warrant, and such warrant may have no value and may expire worthless. In such event, holders who acquired their warrants as part of a purchase of units will have paid the full Unit purchase price solely for the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units. There may be a circumstance where an exemption from registration exists for holders of our private placement warrants to exercise their warrants while a corresponding exemption does not exist for holders of the public warrants that were included as part of the units. In such an instance, our Sponsor and its permitted transferees (which may include our directors and executive officers) would be able to exercise their warrants and sell the ordinary shares underlying their warrants, while holders of our public warrants would not be able to exercise their warrants and sell the underlying ordinary shares. If and when the warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right, even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying Class A ordinary shares for sale under all applicable state securities laws. As a result, we may redeem the warrants as set forth above, even if the holders are otherwise unable to exercise their warrants.

The grant of registration rights to the Sponsor may make it more difficult to complete the Business Combination, and the future exercise of such rights may adversely affect the market price of G4G Class A ordinary shares.

The Sponsor and its permitted transferees can demand that we register the resale of the Class A ordinary shares into which Founder Shares are convertible, the private placement units and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants, and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of such warrants.

The registration and availability of such a significant number of securities for trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A ordinary shares. In addition, the existence of the registration rights may make our initial business combination more costly or difficult to conclude. This is because the shareholders of the target business may increase the equity stake they seek in the combined entity or ask for more cash consideration to offset the negative impact on the market price of our securities that is expected when the securities owned by our Sponsor or its permitted transferees are registered for resale.

We do not have a specified maximum redemption threshold. The absence of such a redemption threshold may make it possible for us to complete the Business Combination with which a substantial majority of our shareholders do not agree.

The Cayman Constitutional Documents do not provide a specified maximum redemption threshold, except that in no event will we redeem our public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to our initial business combination, either prior to or upon consummation of an initial business combination, which is a limitation under the Cayman Constitutional Documents that is proposed to be removed pursuant to Proposal No. 2 of this proxy statement/prospectus. As a result, we may be able to complete the Business Combination even though a substantial majority of our public shareholders do not agree with the transaction and have redeemed their shares or, if we seek shareholder approval of the Business Combination and do not conduct redemptions in connection with the Business Combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, have entered into privately negotiated agreements to sell their shares to our Sponsor, officers, directors, advisors or their affiliates. In the event the aggregate cash consideration we would be required to pay for all Class A ordinary shares that are validly submitted for redemption plus any amount required to satisfy cash conditions pursuant to the terms of the proposed business combination exceed the aggregate amount of cash available to us, we will not complete the business combination or redeem any shares, all Class A ordinary shares submitted for redemption will be returned to the holders thereof and instead we may search for an alternate business combination.

Our initial shareholders hold a substantial interest in us and will control the election and removal of members of our board of directors prior to the Business Combination. As a result, our initial shareholders may exert a substantial influence on actions requiring a shareholder vote, potentially in a manner that you do not support, and will control our board.

Our initial shareholders own, on an as-converted basis, 20% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares (excluding the Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units). Accordingly, they may exert a substantial influence on actions requiring a shareholder vote, potentially in a manner you do not support, including amendments to our Cayman Constitutional Documents. If our initial shareholders purchase any additional Class A ordinary shares in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, this would increase their control. Neither our Sponsor nor, to our knowledge, any of our officers or directors, has any current intention to purchase

Table of Contents

additional securities, other than as disclosed in the prospectus related to the initial public offering. Factors that would be considered in making such additional purchases would include consideration of the current trading price of our Class A ordinary shares.

In addition, our board of directors, whose members were appointed by our Sponsor, is and will be divided into three classes, each of which will generally serve for a term of three years with only one class of directors being appointed in each year. We may not hold an annual general meeting to appoint new directors prior to the completion of our initial business combination, in which case all of the current directors will continue in office until at least the completion of the business combination. If there is an annual general meeting, as a consequence of our “staggered” board of directors, only a minority of the board of directors will be considered for appointment, and our initial shareholders will control the outcome, as only holders of our Class B ordinary shares will have the right to vote on the appointment or removal of directors prior to our initial business combination. Holders of our public shares will have no right to vote on the election or removal of directors during such time. In addition, holders of our Class B ordinary shares, will, in a vote to continue the Company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands (which requires, pursuant to our Cayman Constitutional Documents, approval of a special resolution, meaning either the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares who attend and vote at a general meeting, or a unanimous written resolution of all of our shareholders entitled to vote), entitle the holders to 10 votes for every founder share. These provisions of our Cayman Constitutional Documents may only be amended by a special resolution, which shall include the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the Class B ordinary shares. As a result, you do not have any influence over the election or removal of directors or our continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands prior to our initial business combination. Accordingly, our initial shareholders, including our Sponsor, will continue to exert control at least until the completion of our initial business combination. In addition, we have agreed not to enter into a definitive agreement regarding the business combination without the prior consent of our Sponsor.

Our management’s ability to require holders of our public warrants to exercise such public warrants on a cashless basis will cause holders to receive fewer Class A ordinary shares upon their exercise of the public warrants than they would have received had they been able to exercise their public warrants for cash.

If we call our public warrants for redemption after the redemption criteria have been satisfied, our management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise its public warrants (including any public warrants held by the Sponsor, officers, directors or their permitted transferees) to do so on a “cashless basis.” If our management chooses to require holders to exercise their public warrants on a cashless basis, the number of G4G Class A ordinary shares received by a holder upon exercise will be fewer than it would have been had such holder exercised their public warrants for cash. This will have the effect of reducing the potential “upside” of the holder’s investment in us.

Our warrant agreement and rights agreement designate the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of our warrants and rights, respectively, which could limit the ability of warrant or rights holders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with our company.

Our warrant and rights agreements provide that, subject to applicable law, (a) any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the warrant agreement, including under the Securities Act, will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, (b) any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the rights agreement will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and (c) in each case, we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. We will waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, these provisions of the warrant and rights agreements do not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are the sole and exclusive forum. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any of our warrants or rights, as applicable, shall be deemed to have notice of, and consented to, the forum provisions in our warrant and rights agreement, as applicable. If any action, the subject matter of which is within the scope of the forum provisions of the warrant or rights agreement, as applicable, is filed in a court other than a court of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (a “foreign action”) in the name of any holder of our warrants or rights, as applicable, such holder shall be deemed to have consented to: (i) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of New York in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the forum provisions (an “enforcement action”), and (ii) having service of process made upon such warrant holder or rights holder, as applicable, in any such enforcement action by service upon such warrant or rights holder’s counsel in the foreign action as agent for such warrant holder or right holder, as applicable.

This choice-of-forum provision may limit a warrant or right holder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with our company, which may discourage such lawsuits. Alternatively, if a court were to find these provisions of our warrant or rights agreements to be inapplicable or unenforceable with respect to one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, and result in a diversion of the time and resources of our management and board of directors.

Past performance by our management team or their respective affiliates may not be indicative of future performance of an investment in us.

Information regarding performance is presented for informational purposes only. Any past experience or performance of our management team and their respective affiliates is not a guarantee of either (a) our ability to successfully identify and execute a transaction, or (b) success with respect to any business combination that we may consummate. You should not rely on the historical record of our management team or their respective affiliates as indicative of the future performance of an investment in us or the returns we will, or are likely to, generate going forward.

After Closing, warrants will become exercisable for New ZeroNox common stock, which would increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to our shareholders.

Outstanding warrants to purchase shares of New ZeroNox common stock will become exercisable in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement governing those securities. Under the current terms of the Warrant Agreement these warrants will become exercisable at any time commencing on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination and 12 months from the closing of our initial public offering. The exercise price of these warrants will be $11.50 per share. To the extent such warrants are exercised, additional shares of New ZeroNox common stock will be issued, which will result in dilution to the holders of New ZeroNox common stock and increase the number of shares eligible for resale in the public market. Sales of substantial numbers of such shares in the public market or the fact that such warrants may be exercised could adversely affect the market price of New ZeroNox common stock. However, there is no guarantee that the public warrants will ever be in the money prior to their expiration, and as such, the public warrants may expire worthless.

We may redeem your unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your warrants worthless.

We have the ability to redeem issued and outstanding public warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per warrant if, among other things, the last reported sale price of Class A ordinary shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders (the “Reference Value”) equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted). If and when the public warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. As a result, we may redeem the public warrants as set forth above, even if the holders are otherwise unable to exercise the public warrants. Redemption of the issued and outstanding public warrants could force you to (a) exercise your public warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for you to do so, (b) sell your public warrants at the then-current market price when you might otherwise wish to hold your public warrants, or (c) accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the issued and outstanding public warrants are called for redemption, we expect would be substantially less than the market value of your public warrants.

In addition, we have the ability to redeem the outstanding warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.10 per warrant if, among other things, the Reference Value equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted). In such a case, the holders will be able to exercise their warrants prior to redemption for a number of Class A ordinary shares determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of our Class A ordinary shares. The value received upon exercise of the warrants (1) may be less than the value the holders would have received if they had exercised their warrants at a later time where the underlying share price is higher and (2) may not compensate the holders for the value of the warrants.

Our rights and warrants may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A ordinary shares and make it more difficult to effectuate the Business Combination.

We issued warrants to purchase 12,650,000 of our Class A ordinary shares, at a price of $11.50 per whole share, and 25,300,000 rights entitling the holder thereof to receive one-sixteenth (1/16) of one Class A Ordinary Share upon the consummation of our initial

Table of Contents

business combination as part of the Units sold in the initial public offering, and, simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, we issued in a private placement an aggregate of 800,000 private placement units. The private placement units have underlying warrants to purchase an aggregate of 400,000 Class A ordinary shares. Both warrants will be exercisable to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. In addition, if the Sponsor, its affiliates or a member of our management team makes any working capital loans, it may convert up to $1,500,000 of such loans into up to an additional 150,000 private placement units, at the price of $10.00 per unit. We may also issue Class A ordinary shares in connection with our redemption of our warrants.

To the extent we issue ordinary shares for any reason, including to effectuate a business combination, the potential for the issuance of a substantial number of additional Class A ordinary shares upon exercise of these warrants could make us a less attractive acquisition vehicle to a target business. Such warrants, when exercised, will increase the number of issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares and reduce the value of the Class A ordinary shares issued to complete the business transaction. Therefore, our warrants may make it more difficult to effectuate a business transaction or increase the cost of acquiring the target business.

The private placement warrants are identical to the warrants sold as part of the units except that, so long as they are held by our Sponsor or its permitted transferees: (1) they will not be redeemable by us; (2) they (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by our Sponsor until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination; (3) they may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis; and (4) the holders thereof (including with respect to the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants) are entitled to registration rights.

Because each unit contains one-half of one redeemable warrant and only a whole warrant may be exercised, the units may be worth less than units of other blank check companies.

Each unit contains one-half of one redeemable warrant. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, no fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units, and only whole units will trade. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued to the warrant holder. This is different from other blank check companies whose units include one ordinary share and one whole warrant or a greater fraction of one whole warrant to purchase one share. We have established the components of the units in this way in order to reduce the dilutive effect of the warrants upon completion of a business combination since the warrants will be exercisable in the aggregate for one-half of the number of shares compared to units that each contain a whole warrant to purchase one share, thus making us, we believe, a more attractive merger partner for target businesses. Nevertheless, this unit structure may cause our units to be worth less than if a unit included one whole warrant or a greater fraction of one whole warrant to purchase one share.

An active trading market for our securities may not develop or be sustained, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of our securities.

The price of our securities may vary significantly due to one or more potential business combinations and general market or economic conditions, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, an active trading market for our securities may never develop or, if developed, it may not be sustained. You may be unable to sell your securities unless a market can be established and sustained.

The Nasdaq may not list New ZeroNox’s securities on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in New ZeroNox’s securities and subject New ZeroNox to additional trading restrictions.

In connection with the Business Combination, in order to continue to maintain the listing of our securities on the Nasdaq, we will be required to demonstrate compliance with the Nasdaq’s initial listing requirements, which are more rigorous than the Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements. We will apply to have New ZeroNox’s securities listed on the Nasdaq upon consummation of the Business Combination.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet all initial listing requirements. Even if New ZeroNox’s securities are listed on the Nasdaq, New ZeroNox may be unable to maintain the listing of its securities in the future.

If New ZeroNox fails to meet the initial listing requirements and the Nasdaq does not list its securities on its exchange, ZeroNox would not be required to consummate the Business Combination. In the event that ZeroNox elected to waive this condition, and the

Table of Contents

Business Combination was consummated without New ZeroNox’s securities being listed on the Nasdaq or on another national securities exchange, New ZeroNox could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

●

a limited availability of market quotations for New ZeroNox’s securities;

●

reduced liquidity for New ZeroNox’s securities;

●

a determination that New ZeroNox common stock is a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in New ZeroNox common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for New ZeroNox’s securities;

●

a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and

●

a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” If New ZeroNox’s securities were not listed on the Nasdaq, such securities would not qualify as covered securities and we would be subject to regulation in each state in which we offer our securities because states are not preempted from regulating the sale of securities that are not covered securities.

You are not entitled to protections normally afforded to investors of many other blank check companies, because we are exempt from certain SEC rules such as Rule 419.

We are exempt from certain rules promulgated by the SEC related to certain blank check companies, such as Rule 419. Accordingly, shareholders will not be afforded the benefits or protections of those rules. Among other things, this means our units were immediately tradable and we will have a longer period of time to complete our initial business combination than companies subject to Rule 419. Moreover, if the initial public offering were subject to Rule 419, that rule would prohibit the release of any interest earned on funds held in the trust account to us unless and until the funds in the trust account were released to us in connection with our completion of an initial business combination.

Our ability to complete the Business Combination may be frustrated by global events, including the COVID 19 pandemic, geopolitical turmoil and the implementation of economic sanctions, economic or industry sector downturns, and the overall status of debt and equity markets.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and other events (such as terrorist attacks, global hostilities, natural disasters or a significant outbreak of other infectious diseases) could have, an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets worldwide, and the business of ZeroNox with which we consummate the Business Combination could be materially and adversely affected.

Additionally, in February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s ability to consummate a business combination are not yet determinable.

If the disruptions posed by COVID-19, the military action commenced by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, or other matters of global concern continue for an extensive period of time, our ability to consummate a business combination, or the operations of a target business with which we ultimately consummate a business combination, may be materially and adversely affected.

In addition, our ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Table of Contents

The outbreak of COVID-19 and other events may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this “Risk Factors” section, such as those related to the market for our securities.

G4G’s and ZeroNox’s ability to consummate the Business Combination, and the operations of New ZeroNox following the Business Combination, may be materially adversely affected by the geopolitical conditions resulting from the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and subsequent sanctions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities and the status of debt and equity markets, as well as protectionist legislation in our target markets.

United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the escalation of geopolitical tensions and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia in February 2022. In response to such invasion, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine during the ongoing military conflict, increasing geopolitical tensions with Russia. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. Although the length and impact of the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine is highly unpredictable, the conflict could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions. Additionally, Russian military actions and the resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets.

Any of the abovementioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine and subsequent sanctions, could adversely affect our search for a business combination and any target business with which we may ultimately consummate a business combination. The extent and duration of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, resulting sanctions and any related market disruptions are impossible to predict, but could be substantial, particularly if current or new sanctions continue for an extended period of time or if geopolitical tensions result in expanded military operations on a global scale. Any such disruptions may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 20, 2022. If these disruptions or other matters of global concern continue for an extensive period of time, our ability to consummate a business combination, or the operations of a target business with which we may ultimately consummate a business combination, may be materially adversely affected.

In addition, the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, and the impact of sanctions against Russia and the potential for retaliatory acts from Russia, could result in increased cyber-attacks against U.S. companies.

If the Merger does not qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code, U.S. Holders of ZeroNox common stock may be required to pay substantial U.S. federal income taxes.

If the Merger does not qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, then a U.S. Holder that exchanges its ZeroNox common stock for New ZeroNox common stock may recognize gain in connection with the Merger and may be subject to substantial U.S. federal income taxes. For more information on the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger to U.S. Holders of ZeroNox securities, see “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders — U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger to U.S. Holders of ZeroNox Securities.”

G4G may not be able to complete an initial business combination with certain potential target companies if a proposed transaction with the target company may be subject to review or approval by regulatory authorities pursuant to certain U.S. or foreign laws or regulations.

Certain acquisitions or business combinations may be subject to review or approval by regulatory authorities pursuant to certain U.S. or foreign laws or regulations, which may cause such acquisitions or business combinations to be delayed or ultimately prohibited. In the event that such regulatory approval or clearance is not obtained, or the review process is extended beyond the period of time that would permit an initial business combination to be consummated with G4G, G4G may not be able to consummate a business combination with such target.

In the United States, among other things, the U.S. Federal Communications Act prohibits foreign individuals, governments, and corporations from owning more than a specified percentage of the capital stock of a broadcast, common carrier, or aeronautical radio

station licensee. Certain mergers that may affect competition may require certain filings and review by the Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission, and investments or acquisitions that may affect national security are subject to review by CFIUS.

CFIUS is an interagency committee authorized to review certain transactions involving direct or indirect foreign investment in the United States by foreign persons in order to determine the effect of such transactions on the national security of the United States. Among other things, CFIUS is empowered to require certain foreign investors to make mandatory filings, to charge filing fees related to such filings and to self-initiate national security reviews of foreign direct and indirect investments in U.S. companies if the parties to that investment choose not to file voluntarily. If CFIUS determines that an investment threatens national security, CFIUS has the power to impose restrictions on the investment or recommend that the President prohibit and/or unwind it. Whether CFIUS has jurisdiction to review an acquisition or investment transaction depends on, among other factors, the nature and structure of the transaction, the nationality of the parties, the level of beneficial ownership interest and the nature of any information or governance rights involved.

In connection with its initial business combination, G4G may determine that it will submit to CFIUS review on a voluntary basis, or to proceed with the transaction without submitting to CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing the transaction. CFIUS may decide to block or delay such initial business combination, or impose conditions with respect to such initial business combination, which may delay or prevent G4G from consummating such initial business combination.

Outside the United States, laws or regulations may affect G4G’s ability to consummate a business combination with potential target companies incorporated or having business operations in jurisdiction where national security considerations, involvement in regulated industries (including telecommunications), or in businesses relating to a country’s culture or heritage may be implicated.

U.S. and foreign regulators generally have the power to deny the ability of the parties to consummate a transaction or to condition approval of a transaction on specified terms and conditions, which may not be acceptable to G4G or a target. In such event, G4G may not be able to consummate a transaction with that potential target.

As a result of these various restrictions, the pool of potential targets with which G4G could complete an initial business combination may be limited and G4G may be adversely affected in terms of competing with other SPACs that do not have similar ownership issues. Moreover, the process of government review could be lengthy. Because G4G has only a limited time to complete its initial business combination, G4G’s failure to obtain any required approvals within the requisite time period may require G4G to liquidate. If G4G liquidates, G4G public shareholders may only receive $10.00 per share, and G4G warrants will expire worthless. This will also cause you to lose any potential investment opportunity in a target company and the chance of realizing future gains on your investment through any price appreciation in the combined company.

If we are deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act, we may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult for us to complete the Business Combination.

If we are deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act, our activities may be restricted, including:

●

restrictions on the nature of our investments; and

●

restrictions on the issuance of securities, each of which may make it difficult for us to complete our initial business combination.

In addition, we may have imposed upon us burdensome requirements, including:

●

registration as an investment company with the SEC;

●

adoption of a specific form of corporate structure; and

●

reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy and disclosure requirements and other rules and regulations that we are currently not subject to.

In order not to be regulated as an investment company under the Investment Company Act, unless we can qualify for an exclusion, we must ensure we are engaged primarily in a business other than investing, reinvesting or trading of securities, and that our activities do not include investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading “investment securities” constituting more than 40% of our assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. Our business will be to identify and complete a

Table of Contents

business combination and thereafter to operate the post-transaction business or assets for the long term. We do not plan to buy businesses or assets with a view to resale or profit from their resale. We do not plan to buy unrelated businesses or assets or to be a passive investor.

We do not believe that our principal activities will subject us to the Investment Company Act. To this end, the proceeds held in the trust account may only be invested in U.S. government treasury obligations with maturities of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the trust agreement, the trustee is not permitted to invest in other securities or assets. By restricting the investment of the proceeds to these instruments, and by having a business plan targeted at acquiring and growing businesses for the long term (rather than on buying and selling businesses in the manner of a merchant bank or private equity fund), we intend to avoid being deemed an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act. The trust account is intended as a holding place for funds pending the earliest to occur of either: (a) the completion of our initial business combination; (b) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend our Cayman Constitutional Documents (i) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide holders of our Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by the Liquidation Date or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of our Class A ordinary shares; or (c) absent our completing an initial business combination by the Liquidation Date, our return of the funds held in the trust account to our public shareholders as part of our redemption of the public shares. If we do not invest the proceeds as discussed above, we may be deemed to be subject to the Investment Company Act. If we were deemed to be subject to the Investment Company Act, compliance with these additional regulatory burdens would require additional expenses for which we have not allotted funds and may hinder our ability to complete a business combination. If we have not consummated our initial business combination within the required time period, our public shareholders may receive only approximately $10.00 per public share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of our trust account, and our rights and warrants will expire worthless.

We may issue additional Class A ordinary shares or preference shares to complete the Business Combination or under an employee incentive plan after completion of the Business Combination. We may also issue Class A ordinary shares upon the conversion of the Founder Shares at a ratio greater than one-to-one at the time of our initial business combination as a result of the anti-dilution provisions contained in our Cayman Constitutional Documents. Any such issuances would dilute the interest of our shareholders and likely present other risks.

Our Cayman Constitutional Documents authorize the issuance of up to 479,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares, and 1,000,000 preference shares, par value $0.0001 per share. As of March 20, 2023, there were 452,900,000 and 13,675,000 authorized but unissued Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares, respectively, available for issuance which amount does not take into account shares reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding rights, warrants or shares issuable upon conversion of the Class B ordinary shares, if any. The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares (which such Class A ordinary shares delivered upon conversion will not have any redemption rights or be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account if we fail to consummate an initial business combination) at the time of our initial business combination or earlier at the option of the holders thereof, as described herein and in our Cayman Constitutional Documents. As of March 20, 2023, there were no preference shares issued and outstanding.

We may issue a substantial number of additional Class A ordinary shares or preference shares to complete the Business Combination or under an employee incentive plan after completion of the Business Combination. We may also issue Class A ordinary shares in connection with our redeeming the warrants or upon conversion of the Class B ordinary shares at a ratio greater than one-to-one at the time of our initial business combination as a result of anti-dilution provisions. However, our Cayman Constitutional Documents provide, among other things, that prior to or in connection with the Business Combination, we may not issue additional shares that would entitle the holders thereof to (a) receive funds from the trust account or (b) vote on any initial business combination or on any other proposal presented to shareholders prior to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination. These provisions of our Cayman Constitutional Documents, like all provisions of our Cayman Constitutional Documents, may be amended with a shareholder vote. The issuance of additional ordinary or preference shares:

●

may significantly dilute the equity interest of public investors, which dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the Class B ordinary shares resulted in the issuance of Class A ordinary shares on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the Class B ordinary shares;

●

may subordinate the rights of holders of Class A ordinary shares if preference shares are issued with rights senior to those afforded our Class A ordinary shares;

Table of Contents

●

could cause a change in control if a substantial number of Class A ordinary shares are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors;

●

may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us by diluting the share ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of us;

●

may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Units, Class A ordinary shares, rights and/or warrants; and

●

may not result in adjustment to the exercise price of our warrants.

Compliance obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may make it more difficult for us to effectuate the Business Combination, require substantial financial and management resources, and increase the time and costs of completing an acquisition.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we evaluate and report on our system of internal controls beginning with this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Only in the event we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, or an accelerated filer and no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, will we be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on our internal control over financial reporting. The fact that we are a blank check company makes compliance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act particularly burdensome on us as compared to other public companies because a target business with which we seek to complete our initial business combination may not be in compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding adequacy of its internal controls. The development of the internal control of any such entity to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may increase the time and costs necessary to complete any such acquisition.

Provisions in our Cayman Constitutional Documents may inhibit a takeover of us, which could limit the price investors might be willing to pay in the future for our Class A ordinary shares and could entrench management.

Our Cayman Constitutional Documents contain provisions that may discourage unsolicited takeover proposals that shareholders may consider to be in their best interests. These provisions will include a staggered board of directors, the ability of our board of directors to designate the terms of and issue a new series of preference shares, and the fact that prior to the completion of our initial business combination, only holders of our Class B ordinary shares, which have been issued to our Sponsor, are entitled to vote on the appointment of directors, which may make more difficult to remove management and may discourage transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing market prices for our securities.

Cyber incidents or attacks directed at us could result in information theft, data corruption, operational disruption and/or financial loss.

We depend on digital technologies, including information systems, infrastructure and cloud applications and services, including those of third parties with which we may deal. Sophisticated and deliberate attacks on, or security breaches in, our systems or infrastructure, or the systems or infrastructure of third parties or the cloud, could lead to corruption or misappropriation of our assets, proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data. As an early stage company without significant investments in data security protection, we may not be sufficiently protected against such occurrences. We may not have sufficient resources to adequately protect against, or to investigate and remediate any vulnerability to, cyber incidents. It is possible that any of these occurrences, or a combination of them, could have adverse consequences on our business and could lead to financial loss.

Since only holders of the Founder Shares will have the right to vote on the appointment of directors, upon the listing of our shares on Nasdaq, Nasdaq may consider us to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of Nasdaq rules and, as a result, we may qualify for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements.

Only holders of our Founder Shares have the right to vote on the appointment of directors. As a result, Nasdaq may consider us to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of Nasdaq corporate governance standards. Under Nasdaq corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that:

●

we have a board that includes a majority of “independent directors,” as defined under the rules of the Nasdaq; and

Table of Contents

●

we have a compensation committee of our board that is comprised entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities.

We do not intend to utilize these exemptions and intend to comply with the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq, subject to applicable phase-in rules. However, if we determine in the future to utilize some or all of these exemptions, you will not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all Nasdaq corporate governance requirements.

Additional Risks Related to Ownership of New ZeroNox Common Stock Following the Business Combination and New ZeroNox Operating as a Public Company

We will need to raise additional capital through equity offerings or offerings of securities convertible into our equity. The failure to raise capital as needed could harm New ZeroNox’s business, operating results and financial condition. Any sales of securities will dilute our stockholders’ ownership interests, may reduce the value of New ZeroNox’s common stock, and may introduce covenants that will restrict our operations or our ability to pay dividends.

Although ZeroNox was incorporated in October 2017, it did not commercialize its products till January 2019. The fact that ZeroNox has a limited operating history means it has limited historical data on the demand for its vehicles. As a result, our future capital requirements may be uncertain and actual capital requirements may be different from those we currently anticipate. We and ZeroNox cannot be certain when or if the operations of ZeroNox will generate sufficient cash to fund its ongoing operations or the growth of its business. We expect our capital expenditures to continue to be significant in the foreseeable future as we expand our business, and that our level of capital expenditures will be significantly affected by customer demand for our vehicles, fleet electrification and other services. We may need to seek equity or debt financing to finance a portion of our capital expenditures. Such financing might not be available to us in a timely manner or on terms that are acceptable, or at all.

Our ability to obtain the necessary financing to carry out our business plan is subject to a number of factors, including general market conditions and market acceptance of our products and services. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms and conditions of such financing unattractive or unavailable to us. If we are unable to raise sufficient funds, we will have to significantly reduce our spending, delay or cancel our planned activities or substantially change our corporate structure. We might not be able to obtain any funding, and we might not have sufficient resources to conduct our business as projected, both of which could mean that we would be forced to curtail or discontinue our operations.

In addition, our future capital needs and other business reasons could require us to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. If New ZeroNox incurs debt, the debt holders could have rights senior to holders of New ZeroNox common stock to make claims on New ZeroNox’s assets. The terms of any debt could restrict New ZeroNox’s operations, including its ability to pay dividends on New ZeroNox’s common stock. If New ZeroNox issues additional equity securities following the Closing, stockholders will experience dilution, and the new equity securities could have rights senior to those of New ZeroNox common stock. Because the decision to issue securities in the future will depend on numerous considerations, including factors beyond New ZeroNox’s control, New ZeroNox cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of any future issuances of debt or equity securities. As a result, stockholders will bear the risk of future issuances of debt or equity securities reducing the value of their New ZeroNox common stock and diluting their interest.

If we cannot raise additional funds when we need or want them, our operations and prospects could be negatively affected.

We will incur increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management will devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.

If we complete the Business Combination and become a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company, and these expenses may increase even more after New ZeroNox is no longer an emerging growth company, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act. As a public company, New ZeroNox will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, as well as rules adopted, and to be adopted, by the SEC and Nasdaq. New ZeroNox’s management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. Moreover, we expect these rules and regulations to substantially increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. The increased costs will increase New ZeroNox’s net loss. For example, we expect these rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be forced to accept reduced policy limits or incur substantially higher costs to maintain the same or similar coverage. We cannot predict or estimate the amount or timing of additional costs it may incur to

respond to these requirements. The impact of these requirements could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors, our board committees or as executive officers.

Our management as a group has little experience in operating a public company.

We do not currently have a chief financial officer with public company experience, although we have hired a new chief financial officer who is scheduled to join our executive team in late April, 2023. Our management team may not successfully or effectively manage its transition to a public company that will be subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under federal securities laws. Our executive officers as a group have little experience in the management of a publicly traded company. Their lack of experience in dealing with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies could be a significant disadvantage in that it is likely that an increasing amount of their time may be devoted to these activities which will result in less time being devoted to the management and growth of New ZeroNox. New ZeroNox will need to recruit additional persons to join its management team in order to handle the increased demands of running a public company, but its efforts may not be successful. We may not have adequate personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in the accounting policies, practices or internal control over financial reporting required of public companies. Failure by our management team to perform as expected may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results.

If we fail to establish and maintain proper and effective internal control over financial reporting, as a public company our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements could be impaired, investors or analysts may lose confidence in our financial reporting, the trading price of New ZeroNox common stock may decline and we could face regulatory investigations or actions.

Following completion of the Business Combination, New ZeroNox will be required to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act beginning with the annual report for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, which will require New ZeroNox management to certify financial and other information in New ZeroNox’s quarterly and annual reports and provide an annual management report on the effectiveness of New ZeroNox’s internal control over financial reporting. When we lose our status as an “emerging growth company” and become an “accelerated filer” or a “large accelerated filer,” an attestation of the independent registered public accounting firm will also be required. As a private company, we have not previously been required to conduct an internal control evaluation and assessment. The rules governing the standards that must be met for management to assess internal control over financial reporting are complex and require significant documentation, testing and possible remediation.

To comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the requirements of being a reporting company under the Exchange Act and any complex accounting rules in the future, New ZeroNox, as the combined company, may need to, among other things, upgrade ZeroNox’s legacy information technology systems; implement additional financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures; and hire additional accounting and finance staff. If New ZeroNox is unable to hire the additional accounting and finance staff necessary to comply with these requirements, it may need to retain additional outside consultants, which may result in significant additional expenses.

We and, following completion of the Business Combination, New ZeroNox cannot assure you that there will not be additional material weaknesses in our or its internal control over financial reporting now or in the future. Any failure to maintain internal control over financial reporting could severely inhibit New ZeroNox’s ability to accurately report its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. If New ZeroNox is unable to conclude that its internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if its independent registered public accounting firm determines that New ZeroNox has a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of its financial reports, the market price of its common stock could significantly decline, and it could be subject to sanctions or investigations by Nasdaq, the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Failure to remedy any material weakness in New ZeroNox’s internal control over financial reporting, or to implement or maintain other effective control systems required of public companies, could also restrict its future access to the capital markets.

Risks Related to the Consummation of the Domestication

The Domestication may result in adverse tax consequences for holders of G4G Class A ordinary shares, warrants and units.

U.S. Holders (as defined in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as a result of the Domestication. Additionally, Non-U.S. Holders (as defined in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” below) may become subject to withholding tax on any amounts treated as dividends paid on New ZeroNox common stock after the Domestication.

Table of Contents

A U.S. Holder who on the day of the Domestication beneficially owns (actually or constructively) G4G Class A ordinary shares with a fair market value of less than $50,000 on the date of the Domestication will not recognize any gain or loss and will not be required to include any part of our earnings in income. A U.S. Holder who on the day of the Domestication beneficially owns (actually or constructively) G4G Class A ordinary shares with a fair market value of $50,000 or more, but less than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of G4G stock entitled to vote and less than 10% or more of the total value of all classes of G4G stock, generally will recognize gain (but not loss) in respect of the Domestication as if such U.S. Holder exchanged its G4G Class A ordinary shares for New ZeroNox common stock in a taxable transaction, unless such U.S. Holder elects in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations to include in income as a deemed dividend the “all earnings and profits amount” (as defined in the Treasury Regulations under Section 367 of the Code) attributable to the G4G Class A ordinary shares held directly by such U.S. Holder. A U.S. Holder who on the day of the Domestication beneficially owns (actually or constructively) 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of G4G stock entitled to vote or 10% or more of the total value of all classes of G4G stock, will generally be required to include in income as a deemed dividend the “all earnings and profits amount” (as defined in the Treasury Regulations) attributable to the G4G Class A ordinary shares held directly by such U.S. Holder.

Additionally, proposed Treasury Regulations with a retroactive effective date have been promulgated under Section 1291(f) of the Code which generally require that, a U.S. person who disposes of stock of a PFIC (including for this purpose exchanging warrants for newly issued warrants in the Domestication) must recognize gain equal to the excess of the fair market value of such PFIC stock over its adjusted tax basis, notwithstanding any other provision of the Code. Because we are a blank check company with no current active business, we believe that it is likely that G4G is classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, these proposed Treasury Regulations, if finalized in their current form, would generally require a U.S. Holder of G4G Class A ordinary shares to recognize gain on the exchange of G4G Class A ordinary shares for New ZeroNox common stock pursuant to the Domestication unless such U.S. Holder has made certain tax elections with respect to such U.S. Holder’s G4G Class A ordinary shares. Proposed Treasury Regulations, if finalized in their current form would also apply to a U.S. Holder who exchanges G4G warrants for newly issued New ZeroNox warrants; currently, however, the election mentioned above does not apply to G4G warrants (for discussion regarding the unclear application of the PFIC rules to G4G warrants, see “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — PFIC Considerations”). Any gain recognized from the application of the PFIC rules described above would be taxable income with no corresponding receipt of cash. The tax on any such gain would be imposed at the rate applicable to ordinary income and an interest charge would apply based on complex rules designed to offset the tax deferral to such U.S. Holder on the undistributed earnings, if any, of G4G. It is not possible to determine at this time whether, in what form, and with what effective date, final Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code may be adopted or how any such Treasury Regulations would apply.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the rights of holders of New ZeroNox common stock arising under the DGCL as well as Proposed Organizational Documents will differ from and may be less favorable than the rights of holders of G4G Class A ordinary shares arising under the Cayman Islands Companies Act as well as our current memorandum and articles of association.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the rights of holders of New ZeroNox common stock will arise under the Proposed Organizational Documents as well as the DGCL. Those new organizational documents and the DGCL contain provisions that differ in some respects from those in our current memorandum and articles of association and the Cayman Islands Companies Act and, therefore, some rights of holders of New ZeroNox common stock could differ from the rights that holders of G4G Class A ordinary shares currently possess. For instance, while class actions are generally not available to shareholders under Cayman Islands Companies Act, such actions are generally available under the DGCL. This change could increase the likelihood that New ZeroNox becomes involved in costly litigation, which could have a material adverse effect on New ZeroNox.

In addition, there are differences between the new organizational documents of New ZeroNox and the current constitutional documents of G4G. For a more detailed description of the rights of holders of New ZeroNox common stock and how they may differ from the rights of holders of G4G Class A ordinary shares, please see “Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights.” The forms of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and the Proposed Bylaws of New ZeroNox are attached as Annex D and Annex E, respectively, to this proxy statement/prospectus and we urge you to read them.

Delaware law and New ZeroNox’s Proposed Organizational Documents contain certain provisions, including anti-takeover provisions, that limit the ability of stockholders to take certain actions and could delay or discourage takeover attempts that stockholders may consider favorable.

The Proposed Organizational Documents that will be in effect upon consummation of the Business Combination, and the DGCL, contain provisions that could have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying, or preventing an acquisition that stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. These provisions could also limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock, and therefore depress the

Table of Contents

trading price of New ZeroNox common stock. These provisions could also make it difficult for stockholders to take certain actions, including electing directors who are not nominated by the current members of New ZeroNox’s board of directors or taking other corporate actions, including effecting changes in our management. Among other things, the Proposed Organizational Documents include provisions regarding:

●

the ability of New ZeroNox’s board of directors to issue shares of preferred stock, including “blank check” preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer;

●

the New ZeroNox proposed certificate of incorporation will prohibit cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates;

●

the limitation of the liability of, and the indemnification of, New ZeroNox’s directors and officers;

●

the ability of New ZeroNox’s board of directors to amend the bylaws, which may allow New ZeroNox’s board of directors to take additional actions to prevent an unsolicited takeover and inhibit the ability of an acquirer to amend the bylaws to facilitate an unsolicited takeover attempt; and

●

advance notice procedures with which stockholders must comply to nominate candidates to New ZeroNox’s board of directors or to propose matters to be acted upon at a stockholders’ meeting, which could preclude stockholders from bringing matters before annual or special meetings of stockholders and delay changes in New ZeroNox’s board of directors and also may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of New ZeroNox.

These provisions, alone or together, could delay or prevent hostile takeovers and changes in control or changes in New ZeroNox’s board of directors or management.

The provisions of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation requiring exclusive forum in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware for certain types of lawsuits may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers.

New ZeroNox’s Proposed Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and unless New ZeroNox consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, in the event that the Chancery Court does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware or other state courts of the State of Delaware) will be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action, suit or proceeding brought on New ZeroNox’s behalf, (ii) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or stockholder of New ZeroNox to New ZeroNox or New ZeroNox’s stockholders, (iii) any action, suit or proceeding arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or New ZeroNox’s bylaws or New ZeroNox’s certificate of incorporation (as either may be amended from time to time), (iv) any action, suit or proceeding as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or (v) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim against New ZeroNox or any current or former director, officer or stockholder governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the proposed certificate of incorporation will provide that the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Similarly, Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

These provisions may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against New ZeroNox’s directors and officers. The enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other companies’ certificates of incorporation has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that, in connection with any applicable action brought against New ZeroNox, a court could find the choice of forum provisions contained in the proposed certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable in such action.

Risks if the Adjournment Proposal is Not Approved

Table of Contents

If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved, and an insufficient number of votes have been obtained to authorize the consummation of the Business Combination and the Domestication, our board of directors will not have the ability to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting to a later date in order to solicit further votes, and, therefore, the Business Combination will not be approved, and, therefore, the Business Combination may not be consummated.

Our board of directors is seeking approval to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting to a later date or dates if, at the extraordinary general meeting, based upon the tabulated votes, there are insufficient votes to approve each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved, our board of directors will not have the ability to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting to a later date and, therefore, will not have more time to solicit votes to approve the Condition Precedent Proposals. In such events, the Business Combination would not be completed.

Risks if the Domestication and the Business Combination are not Consummated

If we are not able to complete the Business Combination with ZeroNox by the Liquidation Date nor able to complete another business combination by such date, we would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and we would redeem our Class A ordinary shares and liquidate the trust account. Our public shareholders may receive only approximately $10.00 per public share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of our trust account and our rights and warrants will expire worthless.

We may not be able to complete the Business Combination by the Liquidation Date, nor able to complete another business combination by such date. Our ability to complete our initial business combination may be negatively impacted by general market conditions, volatility in the capital and debt markets and the other risks described herein. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic and COVID-19 variants continue to affect both the U.S. and other jurisdictions and, while the extent of the impact of the pandemic on us will depend on future developments, it could limit our ability to complete our initial business combination, including as a result of increased market volatility, decreased market liquidity and third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to us or at all. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively impact businesses we may seek to acquire. If we have not completed our initial business combination by the Liquidation Date, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our income taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then-outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. Our Cayman Constitutional Documents provide that, if we wind up for any other reason prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, we will follow the foregoing procedures with respect to the liquidation of the trust account as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, subject to applicable Cayman Islands law. In either such case, our public shareholders may receive only $10.00 per public share, or less than $10.00 per public share, on the redemption of their shares, and our rights and warrants will expire worthless.

You will not have any rights or interests in funds from the trust account, except under certain limited circumstances. To liquidate your investment, therefore, you may be forced to sell your public shares and/or public warrants, potentially at a loss.

Our public shareholders will be entitled to receive funds from the trust account only upon the earliest to occur of: (a) our completion of an initial business combination, and then only in connection with those Class A ordinary shares that such shareholder properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein; (b) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend our Cayman Constitutional Documents (i) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide holders of our Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by the Liquidation Date or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of our Class A ordinary shares; and (c) the redemption of our public shares if we have not completed our initial business combination by the Liquidation Date, subject to applicable law and as further described herein. Public shareholders who redeem their Class A ordinary shares in connection with a shareholder vote described in clause (b) in the preceding sentence shall not be entitled to funds from the trust account upon the subsequent completion of an initial business combination or liquidation if we have not completed our initial business combination by the Liquidation Date, with respect to such Class A ordinary shares so redeemed. In no other circumstances will a public shareholder have any right or interest of any kind in the trust account.

Table of Contents

Holders of rights and warrants will not have any right to the proceeds held in the trust account with respect to the rights and warrants, respectively. Accordingly, to liquidate your investment, you may be forced to sell your public shares, rights and/or warrants, potentially at a loss.

Changes in laws or regulations or how such laws or regulations are interpreted or applied, or a failure to comply with any laws or regulations, may adversely affect our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination, and results of operations.

We are subject to laws and regulations enacted by national, regional and local governments. In particular, we are required to comply with certain SEC and other legal requirements. Compliance with, and monitoring of, applicable laws and regulations may be difficult, time consuming and costly. Those laws and regulations, and their interpretation and application, may also change from time to time, including as a result of changes in economic, political, social and government policies, and those changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, investments and results of operations. In addition, a failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, as interpreted and applied, could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination, and results of operations.

On March 30, 2022, the SEC issued proposed rules that would, among other items, impose additional disclosure requirements in business combination transactions involving SPACs and private operating companies; amend the financial statement requirements applicable to business combination transactions involving such companies; update and expand guidance regarding the general use of projections in SEC filings, as well as when projections are disclosed in connection with proposed business combination transactions; increase the potential liability of certain participants in proposed business combination transactions; and impact the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act. These rules, if adopted, whether in the form proposed or in revised form, may materially adversely affect our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination and may increase the costs and time related thereto.

If we have not completed our initial business combination by the Liquidation Date, our public shareholders may be forced to wait beyond such timeframe before redemption from our trust account.

If we have not completed our initial business combination within the Liquidation Date, which ends June 14, 2023 (or September 14, 2023 at the election of the Company, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the deposit of a total of $2,530,000 into the trust account) or as extended by the Company’s shareholders in accordance with our Cayman Constitutional Documents, the proceeds then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our income taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), will be used to fund the redemption of our public shares, as further described herein. Any redemption of public shareholders from the trust account will be effected automatically by function of our Cayman Constitutional Documents prior to any voluntary winding up. If we are required to wind up, liquidate the trust account and distribute such amount therein, pro rata, to our public shareholders, as part of any liquidation process, such winding up, liquidation and distribution must comply with the applicable provisions of the Cayman Islands Companies Act. In that case, investors may be forced to wait beyond June 15, 2023 (or September 15, 2023) before the redemption proceeds of our trust account become available to them, and they receive the return of their pro rata portion of the proceeds from our trust account. We have no obligation to return funds to investors prior to the date of our redemption or liquidation unless, prior thereto, we consummate our initial business combination or amend certain provisions of our Cayman Constitutional Documents, and only then in cases where investors have sought to redeem their Class A ordinary shares. Only upon our redemption or any liquidation will public shareholders be entitled to distributions if we do not complete our initial business combination and do not amend certain provisions of our Cayman Constitutional Documents. Our Cayman Constitutional Documents provide that, if we wind up for any other reason prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, we will follow the foregoing procedures with respect to the liquidation of the trust account as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, subject to applicable Cayman Islands law.

If the funds not being held in the trust account are insufficient to allow us to operate throughout to the Liquidation Date, we may be unable to complete our initial business combination.

The funds available to us outside of the trust account may not be sufficient to allow us to operate to the Liquidation Date, assuming that our initial business combination is not completed during that time. We have incurred, and expect to incur significant costs in pursuit of our acquisition plans. Management’s plans to address this need for capital through potential loans from certain of our affiliates are discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” However, our affiliates are not obligated to make loans to us in the future, and we may not be able to raise additional financing from unaffiliated parties necessary to fund our expenses. Any such event in the future may negatively impact the analysis regarding our ability to continue as a going concern at such time.

Table of Contents

Of the funds available to us, we could use a portion to pay fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business. We could also use a portion of the funds as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision (a provision in letters of intent or merger agreements designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies or investors on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination, although we do not have any current intention to do so. If we entered into a letter of intent or a merger agreement where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity from a target business and were subsequently required to forfeit such funds (whether as a result of our breach or otherwise), we might not have sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conduct due diligence with respect to, a target business. If we have not consummated our initial business combination within the required time period, our public shareholders may receive only an estimated $10.00 per public share, or possibly less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of our trust account and our warrants will expire worthless. See “— If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the trust account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per public share” and other risk factors herein.

OPINION OF MARSHALL & STEVENS, G4G’S INDEPENDENT VALUATION PROVIDER

On February 14, 2023, G4G engaged Marshall & Stevens Transaction Advisory Services LLC (“Marshall & Stevens”) to (1) determine a reasonable range of values for the Acquired Business immediately prior to the Transaction and, for purposes of NASDAQ Listing Rule 5101-2(b), whether such values represent at least 80% of the value of the cash assets held in its trust account, excluding taxes payable on the interest earned on such account and assuming the company has no liabilities (including contingent liabilities that could result in claims against such assets) at the time of such advice and (2) provide an analysis as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to G4G and, through their ownership in G4G, G4G’s Class A stockholders of the purchase price to be paid in connection with the anticipated acquisition by G4G of one hundred percent of the equity and equity equivalents (“equity”) and/or all or substantially all of the assets and business (the “business”) of ZeroNox. On February 23, 2023 and March 7, 2023, G4G’s board of directors (the “G4G Board”) met to review the proposed merger. During these meetings, Marshall & Stevens reviewed with the G4G Board certain financial analyses as described below and rendered its oral opinion to the G4G Board, which opinion was confirmed by delivery of a written opinion, dated March 7, 2023 (the “Marshall & Stevens Opinion”), to the effect that, based upon a valuation date of March 5, 2023 and based on and subject to the matters described in its opinion, the purchase price being paid for ZeroNox in the transaction was fair, from a financial point of view, to G4G and, through their ownership in G4G, G4G’s Class A stockholders.

The full text of Marshall & Stevens Opinion, which sets forth, among other things, the assumptions made, matters considered and limitations on the scope of review undertaken by Marshall & Stevens in rendering its opinion, is attached as Annex I and is incorporated into this proxy statement/prospectus by reference in its entirety. Holders of the common stock are encouraged to read this opinion carefully in its entirety. Marshall & Stevens’ opinion was provided to the G4G Board for its information in connection with its evaluation of the fairness, from a financial point of view, to G4G and, through their ownership in G4G, G4G’s Class A stockholders of the purchase price to be paid in connection with the anticipated acquisition of ZeroNox, does not address any other aspect of the merger and does not constitute a recommendation to any stockholder as to how such stockholder should vote or act with respect to any matters relating to the merger. The summary of Marshall & Stevens’ opinion in this proxy statement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the opinion.

In arriving at its opinion, Marshall & Stevens:

●

reviewed the draft Merger Agreement dated March 7, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”);

●

reviewed certain operating and financial information relating to ZeroNox’s business and prospects, including financial statements for the three years ended December 31, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and projections for the years ending December 31, 2023 through December 31, 2024, all as prepared by ZeroNox’s management and provided to Marshall & Stevens;

●

spoke with certain members of ZeroNox’s management regarding ZeroNox’s operations, financial condition, future prospects and projected operations and performance and regarding the merger;

●

participated in discussions with the G4G Board and its counsel regarding ZeroNox’s projected financials results, among other matters;

●

reviewed certain business, financial and other information regarding ZeroNox that was furnished to Marshall & Stevens by ZeroNox through its management;

●

reviewed certain other publicly available financial data for certain companies that Marshall & Stevens deemed relevant for purposes of its analysis and publicly available transaction prices and premiums paid in other transactions that it deemed relevant for purposes of its analysis;

●

performed an income approach through a discounted cash flow analysis based on the projected financial information provided by ZeroNox’s management;

●

performed a market approach through implementing the guideline public company method; and

●

conducted such other financial studies, analyses and inquiries as it deemed appropriate.

Table of Contents

In connection with its review, Marshall & Stevens relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, the accuracy and completeness of all data, material and other information furnished or otherwise made available to it, discussed with or reviewed by it, or publicly available, and did not assume any responsibility with respect to such data, material and other information. In addition, ZeroNox’s management advised Marshall & Stevens, and Marshall & Stevens assumed, that ZeroNox’s projected financial information provided to Marshall & Stevens was reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of ZeroNox’s future financial results and condition. In evaluating fairness, Marshall & Stevens assumed a fair market value for G4G shares of $10.00 per share (the estimated redemption value of such shares). This value was used, with the consent of the G4G Board, due to the fact that G4G is a special purpose acquisition company with only limited trading history and no material operations or assets other than cash or cash equivalent and an as yet to be approved merger agreement. Accordingly, Marshall & Stevens did not perform an independent analysis regarding the fair market value of the common stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

Marshall & Stevens expressed no opinion with respect to such forecasts and projections or the assumptions on which they are based. Marshall & Stevens also relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, that there has been no material change in ZeroNox’s assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business or prospects since the date of the most recent financial statements provided to Marshall & Stevens, and that there is no information or facts that would make the information reviewed by Marshall & Stevens incomplete or misleading. Marshall & Stevens also assumed that ZeroNox is not party to any material pending transaction, including, without limitation, any external financing (other than in connection with the merger), recapitalization, acquisition or merger, divestiture or spin-off (other than the merger or other publicly disclosed transactions).

Marshall & Stevens relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, that (a) the representations and warranties of all parties to the agreements identified in the Merger Agreement and all other related documents and instruments that are referred to therein are true and correct, (b) each party to each such agreement, document or instrument will perform all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed by such party, (c) all conditions to the completion of the merger will be satisfied without waiver thereof and (d) the merger will be completed in a timely manner in accordance with the terms described in the agreements provided to Marshall & Stevens, without any amendments or modifications thereto or any adjustment to the aggregate consideration (through offset, reduction, indemnity claims, post-closing purchase price adjustments or otherwise). Marshall & Stevens also relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, that all governmental, regulatory and other consents and approvals necessary for the completion of the merger will be obtained and that no delay, limitations, restrictions or conditions will be imposed.

Marshall & Stevens was not requested to make, and did not make, any physical inspection or independent appraisal or evaluation of any of the assets, properties or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of ZeroNox, G4G or any other party. Furthermore, Marshall & Stevens did not undertake independent analysis of any potential or actual litigation, governmental investigation, regulatory action, possible unasserted claims or other contingent liabilities to which ZeroNox or G4G is a party or may be subject.

Marshall & Stevens’ opinion addressed only the fairness, from a financial point of view, to G4G and, through their ownership in G4G, G4G’s Class A stockholders of the purchase price to be paid in connection with the anticipated acquisition of ZeroNox and did not address any other aspect or implication of the merger or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into in connection with the merger or otherwise. Marshall & Stevens was engaged to provide an independent fairness opinion. Marshall & stevens was not engaged to be, nor performed services of, a financial advisor to G4G. Marshall & Stevens’ opinion was necessarily based upon information made available to it as of the date of the opinion and financial, economic, market and other conditions as they existed and could be evaluated on the date of the opinion. Marshall & Stevens’ opinion did not address the relative merits of the merger as compared to alternative transactions or strategies that might be available to G4G, nor did it address G4G’s underlying business decision to proceed with the merger. Except as described herein, the G4G Board imposed no other limitations on Marshall & Stevens with respect to the investigations made or procedures followed in rendering the opinion.

In preparing its opinion to the G4G Board , Marshall & Stevens performed a variety of financial and comparative analyses, including those described below that were the material financial analyses reviewed with the G4G Board in connection with Marshall & Stevens’ opinion. The summary of Marshall & Stevens’ analyses described below is not a complete description of such analyses underlying Marshall & Stevens’ opinion. The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process involving various determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of financial analysis and the application of those methods to the particular circumstances and, therefore, a fairness opinion is not readily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. Marshall & Stevens arrived at its ultimate opinion based on the results of all analyses undertaken by it and assessed as a whole and did not draw, in isolation, conclusions from or with regard to any one factor or method of analysis. Accordingly, Marshall & Stevens believes that its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses and factors or focusing on information presented in tables and charts, without considering all analyses and factors or the narrative description of the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying its analyses and opinion.

In its analyses, Marshall & Stevens considered industry performance, general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond ZeroNox’s control. No company, transaction or business used in Marshall & Stevens’ analyses as a comparison is identical to ZeroNox or the proposed merger, and an evaluation of the results of those analyses is not entirely mathematical. Rather, the analyses involve complex considerations and judgments concerning financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the acquisition, public trading or other values of the companies, business segments or transactions analyzed. The estimates contained in Marshall & Stevens’ analyses and the ranges of valuations resulting from any particular analysis are not necessarily indicative of actual values or predictive of future results or values, which may be significantly more or less favorable than those suggested by the analyses. In addition, analyses relating to the value of businesses or securities do not purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which businesses or securities actually may be sold. Accordingly, the estimates used in, and the results derived from, Marshall & Stevens’ analyses are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty.

Marshall & Stevens was not requested to, and it did not, recommend the specific consideration payable in the merger, which consideration was determined between G4G and ZeroNox, and the decision to enter into the merger was solely that of the G4G Board. Marshall & Stevens’ opinion and financial analyses were only one of many factors considered by the G4G Board in its evaluation of the merger and should not be viewed as determinative of the views of the G4G Board or G4G’s management with respect to the merger or the merger consideration.

The following is a summary of the material financial analyses reviewed with the G4G Board in connection with Marshall & Stevens’ opinion.

Fees Paid to Marshall & Stevens

Marshall & Stevens was engaged on a fixed fee basis and their compensation is not contingent upon the completion of the transaction. Marshall & Stevens provided no additional services associated with the transaction and has provided no other services for G4G.

Discounted Cash Flow Method

Using the financial projections provided by ZeroNox management, Marshall & Stevens performed an income approach via discounted cash flow method. The major inputs and assumptions used in Marshall & Stevens’s discounted cash flow method were as follows:

●

ZeroNox provided the projections through financial year 2024, which was extrapolated to 2032 by Marshall & Stevens reflecting a deceleration in revenue growth coupled with stable earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) margins, as the basis for the Discounted Cash Flow analysis. The duration of the projection provided assumes a time period by which a high-growth company could achieve a stabilized long term growth rate.

●

A weighted average cost of capital (WACC) was used as the discount rate in Marshall & Stevens’s analysis and applied to debt free, after-tax cash flows. The WACC was calculated to be approximately 25.0% and was determined based upon a cost of equity of approximately 29.0% and an after-tax cost of debt of approximately 7.9%.

●

A cost of equity was determined using a 20-year U.S. treasury rate of 2.8%, Equity Risk Premium of 6.2% (Kroll Cost of Capital Navigator 2022 (“KCOC”)), Re-levered Equity beta of 1.04 based upon the median beta of the commercial EV and ICE based Guideline Companies discussed below, a size premium of 4.8% based upon KCOC data for the 10^th decile, and a company specific risk premium of 15.0% based upon anticipated forecast and execution risk.

●

After-tax cost of debt was determined using B rated bond yields and a tax rate of 28.0%.

●

The debt-to-capital ratio was estimated at 20.0% and the equity-to-capital ratio was estimated at 80.0% using input from the Guideline Companies discussed below.

●

Estimated income tax expense of 28.0% of pre-tax income;

●

Capital expenditures for projected year 2023 to 2024 were based upon of ZeroNox’s projected capital expenditures, and remaining capital expenditures were projected at 1.0% of net revenue based on discussions with ZeroNox and projected Guideline Company levels;

101

●

Working capital requirements for projected year 2023 to 2024 were based upon ZeroNox’s projected balance sheets, and remaining working capital requirements were estimated based on discussions with ZeroNox, the Company’s historical debt-free, cash-free working capital, as well as the Guideline Companies’ historical debt-free, cash-free working capital levels;

●

The terminal value was calculated using the Gordon Growth Model and based upon a WACC of 25.0% and terminal growth rate of 3.0%.

Marshall & Stevens also performed sensitivity analysis (Sensitivity Scenario) utilizing the projections, which included varying the EBITDA margins in the projections.

Marshall & Stevens first determined the enterprise value of ZeroNox, which is defined as the market value of invested capital (total equity plus total debt), less cash. The indication of enterprise value for ZeroNox using the discounted cash flow method and the projections was estimated to be between $245,000,000 and $290,000,000. Marshall & Stevens subsequently determined the fair value of equity by adding the estimated cash balance and subtracting the estimated debt balance as of the valuation date. The indication of equity value for ZeroNox using the discounted cash flow method and projections was estimated to be between approximately $240,000,000 and $285,000,000.

Guideline Public Company Analysis

Marshall & Stevens reviewed and analyzed selected historical and projected information about ZeroNox provided by ZeroNox’s management and compared this information to certain financial information of nineteen (19) publicly traded companies that Marshall & Stevens deemed to be reasonably comparable to ZeroNox (each a “Guideline Company” or “Comp” and, collectively, the “Guideline Companies” or “Comps”). For the Guideline Companies, Marshall & Stevens based their selection on discussions with management and industry research. The criteria for selecting the Guideline Companies were mainly based on each Guideline Company’s industry and business description. We then segmented the Comps into two segments, “Commercial EV” and “Commercial ICE.” For the Commercial EV based Comps, we selected companies that operate in the commercial electric vehicle (“EV”) space primarily in the U.S. with products that are used in both on-highway and in off-highway applications. For the Commercial internal combustion engine (“ICE”) based Comps, we considered mature commercial ICE companies that are also currently investing in the EV space.

Business descriptions and financial information are provided below for the selected Guideline Companies. The descriptions of these companies and the financial information for such companies set out below are derived from publicly available information and are summary in nature. Shareholders are referred to, and these summaries are qualified in full by reference to, the public reports filed by these companies with the SEC. Marshall & Stevens has conducted no due diligence as to the truthfulness, accuracy or completeness of this information and makes no representation or warranty as to any such matter.

Marshall & Stevens reviewed, among other data points, the Guideline Companies’ enterprise value (“EV”) as a multiple of revenue and a multiple of EBITDA for the second (“CY 2024”), third (“CY 2025”) and fourth (“CY 2026”) year forecast for each Guideline Company. The multiples were size-adjusted based on a comparison to the respective deciles, and the respective equity risk premium, to which each Guideline Company was classified compared to the 10^th decile utilized for ZeroNox. The base value multiples selected were based upon the comparative expected growth and margin performance relative to the Guideline Company forecasts. We quantitatively considered the execution risk of the projections as an offset in the consideration of the multiple selections. Higher weighting was applied to the 2024 enterprise value to revenue and enterprise value to EBITDA indications given the forecast information provided by ZeroNox management.

The overall range of enterprise value as determined by the guideline public company method was approximately $235,000,000 to $285,000,000 (rounded). After adjusting for net debt, the indicated equity value range for ZeroNox under the guideline public company method was estimated to be between approximately $230,000,000 and $280,000,000.

Guideline Transaction Analysis

The market transaction method is a variation of the market approach where transactions involving the actual sale or purchase of the ZeroNox’s enterprise value, or the enterprise value of similar companies are analyzed to provide an indication of fair value. In the present instance, our transaction search did not yield any comparable transactions, so we did not consider the Guideline Transaction Method in the formation of our opinion.

Reconciled Conclusion of Value

Marshall & Stevens considered the discounted cash flow method and the guideline public company method. A 50% weighting was placed on the discounted cash flow method given the detailed forecast provided by ZeroNox management. As discussed above, the indication of value under the Sensitivity Scenario was used for sensitivity testing only and was assigned no weight in the final value conclusion. A 50% weighting was placed on the guideline public company method given the current market information and relevancy of the Guideline Companies. Further, no weighting was assigned on the guideline transaction method due to a lack of comparable transactions within the industry coupled with insufficient deal pricing indications.

Giving the weighing discussed above, Marshall & Stevens concluded to a final equity value range of approximately $235,000,000 to $285,000,000.

Estimated Fair Value of the Earnout and Total Consideration

Because the transaction consideration includes a contingent earnout, Marshall & Stevens performed an analysis of such earnout to compute its fair value as of the valuation date for purposes of determining the total consideration paid. Such analysis uses a probability-based Monte Carlo simulation approach, which uses such inputs as the risk-free rate and volatility, to determine the expected fair value of the maximum designated shares (7,500,000 shares) referenced in the Merger Agreement that will be granted based upon the Acquiror common stock, as defined in the Merger Agreement, meeting certain stock price targets in each earnout period as stated in the Merger Agreement. Based on 100,000 simulation trials, Marshall & Stevens estimated the fair value of the earnout to be approximately $45,000,000 for the 7,500,000 shares.

Therefore, the total consideration range was comprised of (a) the upfront equity consideration range of $225,000,000 plus (b) the fair value of the earnout $45,000,000 for a total consideration range of $270,000,000.

Projected Financial Information

ZeroNox’s management provided projections of revenue, cost of goods sold, operating expenses, depreciation, capital expenditures, and working capital, for the financial years ending 2023 through 2024. Marshall & Stevens then extended and extrapolated such projections to a steady state period that ended in 2032.

ZeroNox does not as a matter of course make public projections as to future revenue, earnings, subscribers, financial condition or other results. However, ZeroNox’s senior management prepared and provided to ZeroNox’s board of directors, ZeroNox’s financial advisors and G4G certain internal, unaudited prospective financial information in connection with the evaluation of the merger (the “projections”). A summary of certain key aspects of the projections are set forth below.

The inclusion of the below information should not be regarded as an indication that ZeroNox, G4G, their respective boards of directors or their respective affiliates, advisors or other representatives, or any other recipient of this information, considered — or now considers — it to be necessarily predictive of actual future results.

The unaudited prospective financial information is subjective in many respects. As a result, there can be no assurance that the prospective results will be realized or that actual results will not be significantly higher or lower than estimated. Since the unaudited prospective financial information covers multiple years, that information by its nature becomes less predictive with each successive year.

While presented in this proxy statement/prospectus with numeric specificity, the information set forth in the summary below was based on numerous variables and assumptions that are inherently uncertain and may be beyond the control of ZeroNox’s management, including, among other things, the matters described in “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors.” ZeroNox believes the assumptions in the prospective financial information were reasonable at the time the financial information was prepared, given the information ZeroNox had at the time. However, important factors that may affect actual results and cause the results reflected in the prospective financial information not to be achieved include, among other things, risks and uncertainties relating to ZeroNox’s business, industry performance, the regulatory environment, and general business and economic conditions.

The prospective financial information also reflects assumptions as to certain business decisions that are subject to change. The projections were not prepared with a view toward public disclosure or compliance with the published guidelines of the SEC, or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for the preparation and presentation of financial forecasts but, in the view of ZeroNox’s management, each was prepared on a reasonable basis, reflects the best available estimates and judgments as of the time of preparation, and presents, to the best of ZeroNox’s management’s knowledge and belief, the expected course of action and the expected future financial performance of ZeroNox as of the time of preparation. However, this information is not fact and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results, and readers of this proxy statement/prospectus, including investors or holders, are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the prospective financial information, including in making a decision regarding the transaction, as the projections may be materially different than actual results. The projections should be evaluated, if at all, in conjunction with the historical financial statements and other information regarding ZeroNox and G4G included in this proxy statement/prospectus and in G4G’s other filings with the SEC.

No independent auditors have audited, reviewed, examined, compiled nor applied agreed-upon procedures with respect to the accompanying prospective financial information and, accordingly, none of ZeroNox, G4G or any of their independent auditors express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto or its achievability, and assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, the prospective financial information. The audit reports included in this proxy statement/prospectus relate to historical financial information. They do not extend to the prospective financial information and should not be read to do so.

Except as required by applicable securities laws, ZeroNox does not intend to make publicly available any update or other revision to the prospective financial information. The prospective financial information does not take into account any circumstances or events occurring after the date that information was prepared. The projections were requested by, and disclosed to, G4G for use as a component in its overall evaluation of ZeroNox and are included in this proxy statement/prospectus on that account. ZeroNox has not warranted the accuracy, reliability, appropriateness or completeness of the financial projections to anyone, including G4G. None of ZeroNox, G4G nor any of their respective affiliates, officers, directors, advisors or other representatives has made or makes any representation to any ZeroNox equityholder, G4G stockholder or any other person regarding ultimate performance of ZeroNox compared to the information contained in the prospective financial information or that financial and operating results will be achieved. Accordingly, the financial projections should not be looked at as “guidance” of any sort.

Certain of the measures included in the prospective financial information may be considered non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and non-GAAP financial measures as used by ZeroNox may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts used by other companies. Financial measures provided to a financial advisor in connection with a business combination transaction are excluded from the definition of non-GAAP financial measures and therefore are not subject to SEC rules regarding disclosures of non-GAAP financial measures, which would otherwise require a reconciliation of a non-GAAP financial measure to a GAAP financial measure. Accordingly, we have not provided a reconciliation of the financial measures included in the prospective financial information to the relevant GAAP financial measures.

Management’s 2023 and 2024 projections were prepared based on information available at the time the projections were developed and reflect numerous assumptions, including those related to general business, economic, market, regulatory, and financial conditions, as well as other factors that are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond ZeroNox’s control. These assumptions consider various risk factors, as detailed in the “Risk Factors” section.

In preparing these projections, management considered many factors specific to ZeroNox’s business including, but not limited to:

●

Expected and, in some cases, growth in contracted revenue from existing relationships with OEMs and fleet owners;

●

Adoption rates of electric vehicles across different vehicle categories;

●

Expansion of our distribution network facilitated by existing relationships;

●

Potential cost inflation in parts and components;

●

Anticipated volume discounts; and

●

Projected increase in operating costs, including headcounts, to support anticipated growth.

For the years prior to 2023, ZeroNox’s primary focus was on its Tuatara, ION, and PEAK product lines, which accounted for over 90% of its revenue during those fiscal years. These brands enabled early adoption and iterative improvement of the company’s technology and services. ZeroNox expects revenue growth from these existing product lines as the company enters into more product development or other collaborative relationships with dealerships and distributors, and converts more trial deployment into actual sales orders.

In 2021, ZeroNox’s management team identified an opportunity to leverage the underlying ZEPP platform in their existing brands for fleet conversions and direct sales to existing OHEV OEMs. The ZEPP comprises critical components for vehicle electrification, including the electric motor, motor controller, lithium-iron battery, battery management system, on-board charger, telematics, and display screen. Consequently, ZeroNox began executing contracts and MOUs, and develop prototypes for The Jospong Group of Companies in Ghana (“Jospong”), a large Japanese OEM of agricultural machines and utility vehicles, and LS Mtron Ltd., a Korean manufacturer of agricultural machines (“LS Mtron”).

ZeroNox’s projections for market and revenue growth to build on its momentum rely on several factors:

●

Existing collaborations: ZeroNox has collaborations on Tuatara, PEAK, Iron Vault, with LS Mtron, a large Japanese OEM of agricultural machines and utility vehicles, and Jospong, which are expected to drive revenue growth through sales of electrified vehicles and vehicle platforms integrated with the ZeroNox Powertrain Platform (ZEPP).

108

Table of Contents

●

Expansion of the distribution network: The company currently distributes through around 50 dealerships in the US and plans to expand to nearly 1,500 dealership locations as a result of recent contracts with OEMs, and anticipated increase in its market reach.

●

Adoption rates of electric vehicles: Revenue growth depends on the increasing adoption of electric vehicles across different vehicle categories as the market shifts toward sustainable transportation solutions.

●

Product launches and innovation: ZeroNox anticipates revenue growth through (i) the introduction of new products, such as PEAK forklifts, (ii) the commercial launch of Iron Vault, and (iii) sales to LS Mtron, the large Japanese OEM , and Zoomlion pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement with Jospong for electrification of 1,000 refuse trucks in Ghana.

●

Economies of scale and cost improvements: As the company grows and increases production volumes, ZeroNox expects to achieve economies of scale, leading to cost improvements and better EBITDA margins.

●

Investment in sales & marketing, research & development, and general & administrative expenses: Planned overhead investments in these areas will support the company’s anticipated growth by enhancing its market presence, product offerings, and overall operational efficiency.

ZeroNox’s revenue projections contained herein are based on assumptions that are both quantitative and qualitative, some of which are not quantifiable. The qualitative assumptions are based on ZeroNox’s key personnel in production, sales, procurement, and operations to arrive at forecasts. Moreover, the projections are based on ZeroNox’s historical operations, in addition to the projection that ZeroNox would retain current customers, grow current customers through offering additional products, and attract new customers, which is based on its key personnel’s qualitative assumptions. Where quantifiable assumptions were used, they related primarily to either the historical performance of ZeroNox’s relationships with OEMs and fleet owners, and actual increases in revenue from those collaborations, as well as assumptions to support projected growth. There can be no certainty or assurances that such projected growth will be achieved.

Purpose of the G4G Extraordinary General Meeting

At the extraordinary general meeting, G4G is asking holders of ordinary shares to:

●

consider and vote upon a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution and adopt the Merger Agreement attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A, pursuant to which, among other things, following the Domestication of G4G to Delaware, Merger Sub will merge with and into ZeroNox, with ZeroNox surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of G4G in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement as more fully described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus (the “BCA Proposal”);

●

consider and vote upon a proposal to amend by special resolution G4G’s Existing Articles to eliminate from the Existing Articles the limitation that G4G may not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in G4G having net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001 or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to G4G’s initial business combination (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal”);

●

consider and vote upon a proposal to approve by special resolution, assuming the BCA Proposal is approved and adopted, the change of G4G’s jurisdiction of incorporation by deregistering as an exempted company by way of continuation out of the Cayman Islands and domesticating as a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Domestication Proposal”);

●

consider and vote upon the following five separate proposals (collectively, the “Organizational Documents Proposals”) to approve by special resolution, assuming the BCA Proposal and the Domestication Proposal are approved and adopted, the following material differences between the Cayman Constitutional Documents and the Proposed Organizational Documents:

●

to authorize the change in the authorized share capital of G4G from $50,000 divided into 479,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “G4G Class A ordinary shares”), 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B ordinary shares” and, together with the Class A ordinary shares, the “ordinary shares”), and 1,000,000 preference shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “G4G Preference Shares”), to shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New ZeroNox (the “New ZeroNox common stock”) and shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New ZeroNox (the “New ZeroNox preferred stock”) (“Organizational Documents Proposal A”);

Table of Contents

●

to authorize the adoption of Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation (“Organizational Documents Proposal C”);

●

to authorize the election not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL and, instead, be governed by a provision substantially similar to Section 203 of the DGCL (“Organizational Documents Proposal D”);

●

to authorize all other changes in connection with the amendment and replacement of Cayman Constitutional Documents with the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and Proposed Bylaws in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination (copies of which attached to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D and Annex E, respectively), including (1) changing the corporate name from “The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation” to “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.,” (2) making New ZeroNox’s corporate existence perpetual and (3) removing certain provisions related to G4G’s status as a blank check company that will no longer be applicable upon consummation of the Business Combination, all of which the G4G Board believes is necessary to adequately address the needs of New ZeroNox after the Business Combination (“Organizational Documents Proposal E”);

●

consider and vote upon a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution, to elect seven (7) directors who, upon consummation of the Business Combination, will be the directors of New ZeroNox (the “Director Election Proposal”);

●

consider and vote upon a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution for purposes of complying with the applicable rules of Nasdaq, the issuance of New ZeroNox common stock to the New ZeroNox stockholders pursuant to the Merger Agreement (the “Stock Issuance Proposal”);

●

consider and vote upon a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution, The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation 2023 Incentive Award Plan (the “Incentive Award Plan Proposal” and, collectively with the BCA Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposals and the Stock Issuance Proposal, the “Condition Precedent Proposals”); and

●

consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the adjournment of the extraordinary general meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for the approval of one or more proposals at the extraordinary general meeting (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

Each of the Condition Precedent Proposals is cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon the approval of any other proposal set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Recommendation of G4G Board of Directors

The G4G Board believes that the BCA Proposal and the other proposals to be presented at the extraordinary general meeting are in the best interest of G4G’s shareholders and unanimously recommends that its shareholders vote “FOR” the BCA Proposal, “FOR” the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, “FOR” the Domestication Proposal, “FOR” the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, “FOR” each of the separate Organizational Documents Proposals, “FOR” the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the Incentive Award Plan Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, in each case, if presented at the extraordinary general meeting.

Record Date; Who is Entitled to Vote

G4G shareholders will be entitled to vote or direct votes to be cast at the extraordinary general meeting, if they owned ordinary shares, at the close of business on , 2023, which is the “record date” for the extraordinary general meeting. Shareholders will have one vote for each ordinary share owned at the close of business on the record date. G4G initial shareholders have ten votes for every share they hold on the Domestication Proposal. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. G4G warrants do not

111

Table of Contents

have voting rights in the extraordinary general meeting. As of the close of business on the record date, there were ordinary shares issued and outstanding, of which were issued and outstanding public shares.

The Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G have agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Sponsor Support Agreement, and waive their redemption rights in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination with respect to any ordinary shares held by them. The ordinary shares held by the Sponsor will be excluded from the pro rata calculation used to determine the per-share redemption price. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor and such directors and officers of G4G collectively own approximately 20% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

Quorum

A quorum of G4G shareholders is necessary to hold valid meetings. A quorum will be present at the extraordinary general meeting if the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting are represented in person or by proxy. As of the record date for the extraordinary general meeting, ordinary shares would be required to achieve a quorum.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Proxies that are marked “abstain” and proxies relating to “street name” shares that are returned to G4G but marked by brokers as “not voted” will be treated as shares present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum on all matters, but they will not be treated as shares voted on the matter. Under the rules of various national securities exchanges, your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares with respect to non-discretionary matters unless you provide instructions on how to vote in accordance with the information and procedures provided to you by your broker, bank, or nominee. We believe all the proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary and therefore your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares without your instruction.

An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the BCA Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. The BCA Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the BCA Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

The approval of the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under the Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. The Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

The approval of the Domestication Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. The Domestication Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Domestication Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

The approval of each of the Organizational Documents Proposals requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. Each of the Organizational Documents Proposals is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Organizational Documents Proposals will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

extraordinary general meeting. The Director Election Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Director Election Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

The approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. The Stock Issuance Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Stock Issuance Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

The approval of the Incentive Award Plan Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. The Incentive Award Plan Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Incentive Award Plan Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

Voting Your Shares

Each G4G ordinary share that you own in your name entitles you to one vote at the extraordinary general meeting. G4G initial shareholders have ten votes for every share they hold on the Domestication Proposal. Each proxy card shows the number of ordinary shares that you own.

There are two ways to vote your ordinary shares at the extraordinary general meeting:

●

You can vote by signing and returning the enclosed proxy card(s). If you vote by proxy card(s), your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card(s), will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card(s). If you sign and return the proxy card(s) but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares will be voted as recommended by the G4G Board “FOR” the BCA Proposal, “FOR” the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, “FOR” the Domestication Proposal, “FOR” each of the separate Organizational Documents Proposals, “FOR” the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the Incentive Award Plan Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, in each case, if presented to the extraordinary general meeting. Votes received after a matter has been voted upon at the extraordinary general meeting will not be counted.

●

You can attend the extraordinary general meeting and vote in person. You will receive a ballot when you arrive. However, if your shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or another nominee, you must get a valid legal proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee. That is the only way G4G can be sure that the broker, bank or nominee has not already voted your shares.

Revoking Your Proxy

If you are a G4G shareholder and you give a proxy, you may revoke it at any time before it is exercised by doing any one of the following:

●

you may send another proxy card with a later date (provided that the new proxy card must be received by G4G not less than 48 hours before the extraordinary general meeting);

●

you may notify G4G in writing before the extraordinary general meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or

●

you may attend the extraordinary general meeting, revoke your proxy, and vote online, as indicated above.

Who Can Answer Your Questions About Voting Your Shares

If you are a shareholder and have any questions about how to vote or direct a vote in respect of your ordinary shares, you may call Morrow Sodali LLC, G4G’s proxy solicitor, by calling (800) 662-5200 or banks and brokers can call collect at (203) 658-9400, orrowsodali.com.

Redemption Rights

●

deliver your public shares to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.

Therefore, the election to exercise redemption rights occurs prior to the Domestication and the redemption is with respect to the G4G public shares that an electing public shareholder holds immediately prior to the Domestication. For the purposes of Article 36.5 of G4G’s memorandum and articles of association and the Cayman Islands Companies Act, the exercise of redemption rights shall be treated as an election to have such public shares repurchased for cash and references in this proxy statement/prospectus to “redemption” or “redeeming” shall be interpreted accordingly. Upon commencement of the Business Combination and immediately prior to the Domestication, G4G shall satisfy the exercise of redemption rights by redeeming the corresponding public shares issued to the public shareholders that validly exercised their redemption rights.

Holders of units must elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares, warrants and rights prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares, warrants and rights, or if a holder holds units registered in its own name, the holder must contact Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, directly and instruct them to do so. Public shareholders may elect to redeem all or a portion of the public shares held by them, regardless of if or how they vote in respect of the BCA Proposal. If the Business Combination is not commenced, the public shares will be returned to the respective holder, broker or bank. If a public shareholder properly exercises its right to redeem all or a portion of the public shares that it holds and timely delivers its shares to Continental, G4G’s transfer agent, then G4G will redeem, upon commencement of the Business Combination and immediately prior to the Domestication, such public shares for a per-share price, payable in cash promptly following the closing of the Business Combination, equal to the pro rata portion of the trust account, calculated as of two business days prior to the Closing Date (net of taxes payable). For illustrative purposes, as of March 31, 2023, based on fund in the trust account totaling $259,522,722.80, this would have amounted to approximately $9.94 per issued and outstanding public share. If a public shareholder exercises its redemption rights in full, then it will be electing to exchange its public shares for cash and will no longer own public shares. The redemption takes place immediately prior to the Domestication when a redeeming shareholder’s G4G Class A Ordinary Shares are canceled in exchange for the right to receive the cash consideration described above; accordingly, it is G4G ordinary shares that will be redeemed.

If you hold the shares in “street name,” you will have to coordinate with your broker to have your shares certificated or delivered electronically. New ZeroNox public shares that have not been tendered (either physically or electronically) in accordance with these procedures will not be redeemed for cash. There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through DTC’s DWAC (deposit withdrawal at custodian) system. The transfer agent will typically charge the tendering broker $80 and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming shareholder. In the event the proposed business combination is not consummated this may result in an additional cost to shareholders for the return of their shares.

114

Table of Contents

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such public shareholder or any other person with whom such public shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its public shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares. Accordingly, if a public shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.

Holders of the warrants will not have redemption rights with respect to the warrants.

The closing price of public shares on March 31, 2023, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, was $10.26. As of March 31, 2023, funds in the trust account totaled $259,522,722.80 and were invested in U.S. government treasury obligations with maturities of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Prior to exercising redemption rights, public shareholders should verify the market price of the public shares as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their public shares in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price. G4G cannot assure its shareholders that they will be able to sell their public shares in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its securities when its shareholders wish to sell their shares.

Appraisal or Dissenters’ Rights

Neither G4G’s shareholders nor G4G’s warrant holders have appraisal or dissenters’ rights in connection with the Business Combination or the Domestication under the Cayman Islands Companies Act or under the DGCL.

Proxy Solicitation Costs

G4G is soliciting proxies on behalf of its board of directors. This solicitation is being made by mail but also may be made by telephone or in person. G4G and its directors, officers and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other electronic means. G4G will bear the cost of the solicitation.

G4G has hired Morrow Sodali LLC to assist in the proxy solicitation process. G4G will pay that firm a fee of $30,000 plus disbursements.

G4G will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward the proxy materials to their principals and to obtain their authority to execute proxies and voting instructions. G4G will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses.

G4G Initial Shareholders

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there are 32,425,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, which includes the 6,325,000 Founder Shares held by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G 800,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units held by the Sponsor, and 25,300,000 Class A ordinary shares. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there is outstanding an aggregate of 13,050,000 warrants, which includes the 400,000 private placement warrants held by the Sponsor and 12,650,000 public warrants. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one G4G Class A ordinary share and, following the Domestication, will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one share of New ZeroNox common stock. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, 25,300,000 rights, each entitling the holder thereof to receive one-sixteenth (1/16) of

115

Table of Contents

one public share upon the consummation of G4G’s Business Combination, are issued and outstanding. Therefore, as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus (without giving effect to the Business Combination), the G4G fully diluted share capital would be 45,475,000.

The Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G have agreed to vote all of their ordinary shares in favor of the proposals being presented at the extraordinary general meeting.

At any time at or prior to the Business Combination, subject to applicable securities laws (including with respect to material nonpublic information), the Sponsor, the existing shareholders of ZeroNox or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors or respective affiliates may (i) purchase public shares from institutional and other investors who vote, or indicate an intention to vote, against any of the Condition Precedent Proposals, or elect to redeem, or indicate an intention to redeem, public shares, (ii) execute agreements to purchase such shares from such investors in the future, or (ii) enter into transactions with such investors and others to provide them with incentives to acquire public shares, vote their public shares in favor of the Condition Precedent Proposals or not redeem their public shares. Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such shareholder, although still the record holder of G4G’s shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that the Sponsor, the existing shareholders of ZeroNox or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors, or respective affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. The purpose of such share purchases and other transactions would be to increase the likelihood of (1) satisfaction of the requirement that holders of a majority of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting, vote in favor of the BCA Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, Incentive Award Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal (if presented), (2) satisfaction of the requirement that holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting, vote in favor of the Domestication Proposal and the Organizational Documents Proposals, (3) otherwise limiting the number of public shares electing to redeem and (4) G4G’s net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) being at least $5,000,001, which is a limitation under the Cayman Constitutional Documents that is proposed to be removed pursuant to Proposal No. 2 of this proxy statement/prospectus. Entering into any such arrangements may have a depressive effect on the ordinary shares (e.g., by giving an investor or holder the ability to effectively purchase shares at a price lower than market, such investor or holder may therefore become more likely to sell the shares he or she owns, either at or prior to the Business Combination).

If such transactions are effected, the consequence could be to cause the Business Combination to be consummated in circumstances where such consummation could not otherwise occur. Purchases of shares by the persons described above would allow them to exert more influence over the approval of the proposals to be presented at the extraordinary general meeting and would likely increase the chances that such proposals would be approved. We will file or submit a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose any material arrangements entered into or significant purchases made by any of the aforementioned persons that would affect the vote on the proposals to be put to the extraordinary general meeting or the redemption threshold. Any such report will include descriptions of any arrangements entered into or significant purchases by any of the aforementioned persons.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 — BCA PROPOSAL

G4G is asking its shareholders to approve by ordinary resolution and adopt the Merger Agreement. G4G shareholders should read carefully this proxy statement/prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement/prospectus. Please see the subsection entitled “The Merger Agreement” below for additional information and a summary of certain terms of the Merger Agreement. You are urged to read carefully the Merger Agreement in its entirety before voting on this proposal.

Because G4G is holding a shareholder vote on the Merger, G4G may consummate the Merger only if it is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of ordinary shares that are voted on the resolution at the extraordinary general meeting.

The Merger Agreement

This subsection of the proxy statement/prospectus describes the material provisions of the Merger Agreement, but does not purport to describe all of the terms of the Merger Agreement. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement/prospectus. You are urged to read the Merger Agreement in its entirety because it is the primary legal document that governs the Merger.

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the respective parties made to each other as of the date of the Merger Agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the respective parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the Merger Agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement are also modified in part by the underlying disclosure letters (the “disclosure letters”), which are not filed publicly and which are subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to shareholders and were used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. We do not believe that the disclosure letters contain information that is material to an investment decision. Additionally, the representations and warranties of the parties to the Merger Agreement may or may not have been accurate as of any specific date and do not purport to be accurate as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. Accordingly, no person should rely on the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement or the summaries thereof in this proxy statement/prospectus as characterizations of the actual state of facts about G4G, ZeroNox or any other matter.

Structure of the Merger

On March 7, 2023, G4G entered into the Merger Agreement with Merger Sub and ZeroNox, pursuant to which, among other things, following the Domestication, (i) Merger Sub will merge with and into ZeroNox, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and ZeroNox will be the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of G4G and (ii) G4G will change its name to ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.

Prior to and as a condition of the Merger, pursuant to the Domestication, G4G will change its jurisdiction of incorporation by effecting a deregistration under the Cayman Islands Companies Act and a domestication under Section 388 of the DGCL, pursuant to which G4G’s jurisdiction of incorporation will be changed from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware. For more information, see “The Domestication Proposal.”

Consideration

Aggregate Merger Consideration

At the effective time of the Merger, among other things, all outstanding shares of ZeroNox common stock, on an aggregate fully-diluted basis, including shares of ZeroNox common stock underlying the ZeroNox Options and the ZeroNox Convertible Notes, outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be cancelled in exchange for (in the case of ZeroNox Options, converted to) the right to receive, or the reservation of, an aggregate of 22.5 million shares of New ZeroNox common stock (at a deemed value of $10.00 per share), representing a pre-transaction equity value of ZeroNox of $225 million (such total number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock, the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”). Specifically, each share of ZeroNox common stock as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be canceled and converted into (A) the right to receive a number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Merger Consideration by (y) the aggregate fully diluted number of shares of ZeroNox common stock (“Exchange Ratio”), and (B) the right to receive Earnout Shares to the extent due and issuable pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

Treatment of ZeroNox Options

At the effective time of the Merger, among other things, all options to purchase shares of ZeroNox common stock (“ZeroNox Options”) will be converted into options to purchase shares of New ZeroNox common stock (“New ZeroNox Options”). Accordingly, this proxy statement/prospectus also relates to the issuance of 1,766,550 shares of New ZeroNox common stock acquired pursuant toupon the exercise of the New ZeroNox Options following the Merger.

Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each ZeroNox Option will provide the right to purchase a number of whole shares of New ZeroNox common stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (i) the number of shares of ZeroNox common stock subject to the applicable ZeroNox Option multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio. The exercise price for each New ZeroNox Option will equal (i) the exercise price of the applicable ZeroNox Option divided by (ii) the Exchange Ratio; provided, however, that the conversion of any such ZeroNox Options that are “incentive stock options” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) will be made in a manner that is intended to be consistent with Treasury Regulations Section 1.424-1, and the conversion of any such ZeroNox Options will be made in a manner such that such conversion will not constitute a “modification” of any such ZeroNox Options for purposes of Section 409A or Section 424 of the Code, as applicable.

Immediately prior to the Closing, the board of directors of ZeroNox shall amend the Zero Nox, Inc. 2017 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan, as amended (the “2017 Plan”) and take all other necessary actions, effective as of immediately prior to the Closing, in order to provide that no new ZeroNox options will be granted under the 2017 Plan.

At the effective time of the Merger, New ZeroNox shall assume all obligations of the ZeroNox under the 2017 Plan, each outstanding New ZeroNox Option and the agreements evidencing the grants thereof. The agreements evidencing the grants of such New ZeroNox Options shall continue in effect on substantially the same terms and conditions (subject to the adjustments required by the Merger Agreement).

Background to the Business Combination

G4G is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands under the name “The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation” on July 2, 2021. G4G was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (each of the foregoing, a “business combination”). Though our efforts to identify a prospective target business were not limited to any particular industry or geographic region, our efforts were focused on partnering with an inclusive and environmentally sustainable company with strong business fundamentals and high growth potential. The business combination with ZeroNox is a result of an extensive search for a potential transaction utilizing the experience of G4G’s management team and board of directors. The terms of the merger agreement are the result of an arm’s length negotiation between representatives of G4G and ZeroNox.

The following chronology summarizes the key meetings and events that led to the signing of the merger agreement. The following chronology does not purport to catalogue every conversation among representatives of G4G, ZeroNox and other parties.

On December 14, 2021, G4G completed its initial public offering (the “IPO”). Prior to the consummation of the IPO, neither G4G, nor anyone on its behalf, contacted any prospective target business or had any substantive discussions, formal or otherwise, with respect to a transaction with G4G.

131

Table of Contents

From the date of G4G’s IPO through the signing of the merger agreement with ZeroNox on March 7, 2023, G4G’s management contacted, and were contacted by, a number of individuals and entities with respect to business combination opportunities.

As part of this process, management of G4G considered and evaluated over 150 potential acquisition targets in a wide variety of industry sectors, including clean energy, carbon tech, green materials and industry, e-mobility and transport, sustainable food and agritech, and others well-positioned to scale in the net zero transition of the global economy, and evaluated such companies’ financials, business models and competitors and illustrative transaction structures to effect a business combination. In connection with such evaluation, representatives of G4G had discussions regarding certain transaction structures with the members of management and/or the boards of directors of certain potential acquisition targets. From the date of G4G’s IPO through December 7, 2022, G4G entered into non-disclosure agreements with 45 of those potential acquisition targets, and submitted non-binding indications of interest to 14 potential acquisition targets following evaluation of, and discussions with, each such potential acquisition target.

Of the 14 potential acquisition targets that received indications of interest, management of G4G engaged in significant due diligence and detailed discussions directly with the senior executives and/or shareholders of ZeroNox and nine other potential acquisition targets. G4G did not pursue a potential transaction with the other potential acquisition targets for a variety of factors, including (i) the inability to reach a mutually acceptable valuation, (ii) G4G’s determination that each business did not represent as attractive a target as ZeroNox due to a combination of business prospects, strategy, management teams, transaction structure, likelihood of execution and valuation, and (iii) decisions of such potential acquisition targets to pursue potential alternative transactions.

In January 2022, G4G engaged in discussions with one of those potential acquisition targets. Company A is a battery technology company focused on the high energy density battery market. Over an approximately 3-month period, G4G management held discussions and meetings with Company A management, including on-site visits at Company A’s executive offices and operating facilities. After completing its analysis, G4G determined that Company A did not represent the best opportunity for a successful business combination, and management decided to focus on alternative opportunities.

In March 2022, G4G engaged in discussions with another potential acquisition target. Company B is a transportation technology company engaged in the commercial transport market. Over an approximately 7-month period, G4G management held discussions and meetings with Company B management. During its analysis of Company B, G4G determined that Company B needed to achieve certain future milestones in order for a successful business combination, and G4G management decided to focus on alternative opportunities until such milestones were achieved.

In July 2022, G4G engaged in discussions with another potential acquisition target, with which it had previously held preliminary conversations earlier in 2022. Company C is a sustainable materials company serving a variety of end markets. Over an approximately 3-month period, G4G management held discussions and meetings with Company C management. Concurrently, G4G management advanced outreach and discussions with certain select potential PIPE investors in connection with the contemplated transaction with Company C. In October 2022, following in-depth discussions with its financial and legal advisors, potential PIPE investors and management of Company C, Company C management determined that a private placement solution represented the best solution for its immediate funding needs, and G4G management decided to focus on alternative opportunities.

During the fall of 2022, G4G continued to explore and evaluate acquisition opportunities.

In November 2022, G4G engaged in discussions with another potential acquisition target. Company D is a clean energy company engaged in the renewable natural gas market. In November 2022, G4G entered into a non-disclosure agreement with Company D and began to conduct certain business diligence, subsequent to which management of G4G delivered to management of Company D a non-binding indication of interest. From November 2022 through December 2022, G4G management held discussions and meetings with Company D management. After completing its analysis, G4G determined that Company D did not represent the best opportunity for a successful business combination, and management decided not to continue discussions with Company D because it had reached a preliminary understanding on the terms of a transaction with ZeroNox, and considered a transaction with ZeroNox to be more compelling.

G4G decided to pursue a potential acquisition of ZeroNox because it determined that ZeroNox represented a compelling opportunity in light of ZeroNox’s strong management team, business fundamentals and path to rapid scale, first mover advantage, capital-efficient business model, strong partner manufacturing and distribution capabilities, and focus on sustainability. Compared to ZeroNox, G4G and its advisors did not consider the other alternative acquisition targets that G4G evaluated to be as compelling when taking into consideration their business prospects, strategy, management teams, structure, likelihood of execution and valuation considerations.

On December 23, 2023, management of G4G continued to discuss the revised term sheet with management of ZeroNox and representatives of Chardan.

On December 26, 2023, Ms. Barsky, Ms. Kakar and Mr. Harrigan of G4G sent to Messrs.

The term sheet provided for a 30-day exclusivity period, subject to extension, which the parties subsequently extended twice for an additional 30-day period each time.

G4G’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Business Combination

On March 7, 2023 the G4G Board, among other things, (i) approved the Merger Agreement and related transaction agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) determined that the Business Combination is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders and (iii) recommended that G4G’s shareholders approve the Merger Agreement and the BCA Proposal.

The G4G Board, in evaluating the merger, consulted with G4G’s management and its legal and other advisors. In reaching its unanimous resolution (i) that the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are advisable and in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders and (ii) to recommend that the stockholders adopt the merger agreement and approve the business combination and the transactions contemplated thereby, the G4G Board considered a range of factors, including, but not limited to, the factors discussed below.

In light of the number and wide variety of factors considered in connection with its evaluation of the merger, the G4G Board did not consider it practicable to, and did not attempt to, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors that it considered in reaching its determination and supporting its decision. The G4G Board viewed its decision as being based on all of the information available and the factors presented to and considered by it. In addition, individual directors may have given different weight to different factors. This explanation of G4G’s reasons for the merger and all other information presented in this section is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under “Forward-Looking Statements.”

The G4G Board considered a number of factors pertaining to the merger as generally supporting its decision to enter into the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including, but not limited to, the following material factors:

●

First Mover Advantage: ZeroNox has a first mover advantage in meeting the large, growing and underserved demand for electric off-highway vehicles;

●

Business Model: ZeroNox has a purpose-built business model to be capital efficient and profitable in a global addressable market;

●

Other Alternatives. The G4G Board believes, after a thorough review of other business combination opportunities reasonably available to G4G, that the proposed merger represent the best potential business combination for G4G and the most attractive opportunity for G4G’s management to accelerate its business plan based upon the process utilized to evaluate and assess other potential acquisition targets, and the G4G Board’s belief that such process has not presented a better alternative; and

●

The G4G Board also considered a variety of uncertainties and risk and other potentially negative factors concerning the merger including, but not limited to, the following:

●

Macroeconomic Risks. Macroeconomic uncertainty and the effects it could have on the combined company’s revenues;

●

Closing Conditions. The fact that the completion of the merger is conditioned on the satisfaction of certain closing conditions that are not within G4G’s control;

●

Litigation. The possibility of litigation challenging the merger or that an adverse judgment granting permanent injunctive relief could indefinitely enjoin consummation of the merger;

●

Benefits May Not Be Achieved. The risks that the potential benefits of the merger may not be fully achieved or may not be achieved within the expected timeframe;

The preceding discussion of the information and factors considered by the G4G Board is not intended to be exhaustive but includes the material factors considered by the G4G Board. In view of the complexity and wide variety of factors considered by the G4G Board in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination, the G4G Board as a whole did not consider it practicable to, nor did it attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors it took into account in reaching its decisions. In considering the factors described above, individual members of the G4G Board may have given different weight to different factors. The G4G Board considered the information and factors as a whole and overall considered the information and factors to be favorable to, and in support of, its determinations and recommendations.

This explanation of the reasons for the G4G Board’s approval of the Business Combination, and all other information presented in this section, is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Marshall & Stevens rendered its opinion to the G4G Board that, as of March 7, 2023 and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions set forth therein, the purchase price being paid by G4G for ZeroNox in the Business Combination was fair, from a financial point of view, to G4G and, through their ownership in G4G, G4G’s Class A stockholders.

occurring after the date that information was prepared. The projections were requested by, and disclosed to, G4G for use as a component in its overall evaluation of ZeroNox and are included in this proxy statement/prospectus on that account. ZeroNox has not warranted the accuracy, reliability, appropriateness or completeness of the financial projections to anyone, including G4G. None of ZeroNox, G4G nor any of their respective affiliates, officers, directors, advisors or other representatives has made or makes any representation to any ZeroNox equityholder, G4G stockholder or any other person regarding ultimate performance of ZeroNox compared to the information contained in the prospective financial information or that financial and operating results will be achieved. Accordingly, the financial projections should not be looked at as “guidance” of any sort.


	2023			2024
Revenues	$	24,401,403		$	236,844,494
Growth rate		154.6	%		870.6	%

EBITDA margin		NM			22.5	%

Capital Expenditures	$	390,000		$	540,000

In preparing these projections, management considered many factors specific to ZeroNox’s business including, but not limited to:

●

Expected and, in some cases, growth in contracted revenue from existing relationships with OEMs and fleet owners;

●

Adoption rates of electric vehicles across different vehicle categories;

●

Expansion of our distribution network facilitated by existing relationships;

●

Potential cost inflation in parts and components;

●

Anticipated volume discounts; and

●

Projected increase in operating costs, including headcounts, to support anticipated growth.

Table of Contents

ZeroNox’s projections for market and revenue growth to build on its momentum rely on several factors:

●

Existing relationships: ZeroNox has agreements with LS Mtron, a large Japanese OEM, and Jospong, which we expect to drive revenue growth through sales of electrified vehicles and vehicle platforms integrated with the ZeroNox Powertrain Platform (ZEPP).

●

Expansion of the distribution network: ZeroNox currently distributes through 54 dealerships in the U.S. and plans to expand to nearly 1,500 dealership locations due to recent contracts, increasing its market reach.

●

Product launches and innovation: ZeroNox anticipates revenue growth through the introduction of new products, such as PEAK forklifts, and the commercial launch of Iron Vault, LS Mtron, a a large Japanese OEM, and the Zoom Lion contract for 1,000 refuse truck conversions.

●

Economies of scale and cost improvements: As the company grows and increases production volumes, it expects to achieve economies of scale, leading to cost improvements and better EBITDA margins.

●

EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS, BY INCLUDING IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS A SUMMARY OF THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS FOR ZERONOX, EACH OF G4G AND ZERONOX UNDERTAKES NO OBLIGATIONS AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY RESPONSIBILITY TO UPDATE OR REVISE, OR PUBLICLY DISCLOSE ANY UPDATE OR REVISION TO, THESE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS TO REFLECT CIRCUMSTANCES OR EVENTS, INCLUDING UNANTICIPATED EVENTS, THAT MAY HAVE OCCURRED OR THAT MAY OCCUR AFTER THE PREPARATION OF THESE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS, EVEN IN THE EVENT THAT ANY OR ALL OF THE ASSUMPTIONS UNDERLYING THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS ARE SHOWN TO BE IN ERROR OR CHANGE.

Satisfaction of 80% Test

It is a requirement under the Cayman Constitutional Documents and the Nasdaq listing requirements that any business acquired in an initial business combination have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance of the funds in the trust account (net of amounts disbursed to management for working capital purposes, if permitted, and excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount held in trust) at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for an initial business combination. Based on the pre-money valuation of $225.0 million for ZeroNox compared to the approximately $253.0 million in the trust account, the G4G Board determined that this requirement was met. The board determined that the consideration being paid in the Business Combination, which amount was negotiated at arms-length, was fair to and in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders and appropriately reflected ZeroNox’s value. In reaching this determination, the board concluded that it was appropriate to base such valuation in part on qualitative factors such as management strength and depth, competitive positioning, customer relationships, and technical skills, as well as quantitative factors such as its potential for future growth in revenue and profits. The G4G Board believes that the financial skills and background of its members qualify it to conclude that the acquisition of ZeroNox met this requirement.

Interests of G4G’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination

●

On July 15, 2021, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share, to cover certain of the offering and formation costs in consideration of 6,325,000 G4G Class B ordinary shares, which were issued to the sponsor on July 15, 2021. The number of Founder Shares issued was determined based on the expectation that such Founder Shares would represent 20% of the issued and outstanding shares (excluding G4G Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units) upon completion of the initial public offering. Up to 825,000 Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option on December 14, 2021, none of the shares were forfeited and none of the 6,325,000 G4G Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding remain subject to forfeiture (excluding such shares subject to forfeiture pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement). The Founder Shares (including G4G Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion thereof) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder.

●

●

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of G4G’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan G4G funds as may be required. If G4G complete an initial business combination, G4G may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the trust account released to G4G. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, G4G may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into private placement units at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. The units would be identical to the private placement units. The terms of such loans by G4G’s officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. G4G does not expect to seek loans from parties other than the Sponsor, its affiliates or G4G’s management team as G4G does not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in the trust account.

●

Our initial shareholders owned, on an as-converted basis, 20% of our outstanding ordinary shares (excluding the Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units) immediately following the completion of the initial public offering. The Sponsor and members of our management team also may from time to time purchase G4G Class A ordinary shares prior to our initial business combination. Our Cayman Constitutional Documents provide that, if we seek shareholder approval, we will complete our initial business combination only if we obtain the approval of an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at a general meeting. As a result, in addition to our initial shareholders’ Founder Shares, we would need 9,487,501, or 37.5% (assuming all issued and outstanding shares are voted), or 1,581,251, or 6.25% (assuming only the minimum number of shares representing a quorum are voted), of the 25,300,000 public shares issued and outstanding as of March 20, 2023 to be voted in favor of an initial business combination in order to have our initial business combination approved. Accordingly, if we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination, the agreement by our Sponsor and each member of our management team to vote in favor of our initial business combination will increase the likelihood that we will receive the requisite shareholder approval for such initial business combination.

Interests of ZeroNox’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination

When you consider the recommendation of the G4G Board in favor of approval of the BCA Proposal, you should keep in mind that ZeroNox’s directors and executive officers may have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of ZeroNox’s shareholders generally. These interests include, among other things, the interests listed below:

●

Immediately following the Merger and related transactions, ZeroNox’s current officers and directors will own in the aggregate 7,380,550 shares, representing approximately 13.6% of total outstanding New ZeroNox common stock (assuming no redemptions), estimated to be approximately $75.7 million based on the closing price of G4G common stock of $10.26 per share as of March 31, 2023.

●

All of ZeroNox’s current executive officers are expected to become executive officers and serve as the executive officers of New ZeroNox upon the closing of the Business Combination.

●

The following individuals who are currently members of ZeroNox’s board of directors are expected to become members of New ZeroNox’s board of directors upon the closing of the Business Combination: Vonn Christenson, Robert Cruess, Kelley Ivancovich, and Eugene Arthur Cuelho, Jr.

Expected Accounting Treatment of the Business Combination

ZeroNox Shareholders will have the largest voting interest in the post-combination company under the 50%, 75%, and maximum redemption scenarios;

●

The board of directors of the post-combination company will have seven (7) directors, including (A) two (2) individuals to be designated by the Sponsor as directors, (B) four (4) individuals to be designated by ZeroNox as directors and (C) one (1) independent director designated mutually by the Sponsor and ZeroNox;

●

The intended strategy of the post-combination entity will continue ZeroNox’s current strategy of being a leader in the electrification of commercial and industrial off-highway vehicles industry.

Regulatory Matters

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the BCA Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

The BCA Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the BCA Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

Resolution

The full text of the resolution to be passed is as follows:

“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that the Company’s entry into the Merger Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, G4G Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of G4G, and Zero Nox, Inc. (“ZeroNox”), a Wyoming corporation, a copy of which is attached to the proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A, pursuant to which, among other things, following the Domestication of G4G to Delaware as described in the proxy statement/prospectus relating to the extraordinary general meeting, the merger of Merger Sub with and into ZeroNox (the “Merger”), with ZeroNox surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New ZeroNox, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, be approved, ratified and confirmed in all respects.”

Recommendation of G4G’s Board of Directors

THE G4G BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE G4G SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE BCA PROPOSAL.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of G4G’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. In addition, G4G’s officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section entitled “— Interests of G4G’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination” for a further discussion of these considerations.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 — REDEMPTION LIMITATION AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

Overview

The Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal would amend G4G’s Existing Articles, effective as of immediately prior to the Domestication, to eliminate from the Existing Articles the limitation that G4G may not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in G4G having net tangible assets or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to G4G’s initial business combination of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation”) in order to allow the Company to redeem public shares irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation.

Reasons for the removal of the Redemption Limitation

Our board of directors believes it is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders for G4G to be allowed to carry out redemptions in connection with the BCA Proposal, irrespective of whether such redemptions would exceed the Redemption Limitation.

If the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal is approved, we plan to file the amendment with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies pursuant to the Cayman Companies Act and, assuming the BCA Proposal is approved, redeem public shares in the redemption, irrespective of whether such redemptions exceed the Redemption Limitation.

If the BCA Proposal is approved but the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal is not approved, we will not redeem public shares to the extent that accepting all properly submitted redemption requests would cause us to have less than $5,000,001 of net tangible assets. In the event that the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal is not approved and we receive notice of redemptions of public shares approaching or in excess of the Redemption Limitation, we and/or the Sponsor expect to take action to increase our net tangible assets to avoid the Redemption Limitation, which may include, at our and our Sponsor’s option and in our and its sole discretion, any, several or all of the following actions: (a) attempting to secure waivers of certain of our significant liabilities, including the deferred underwriting fees; (b) cancelling or terminating other significant liabilities, such as the outstanding private placement warrants; (c) entering into non-redemption agreements with certain of our significant shareholders; (d) purchasing public shares in the open market (subject to applicable law and regulation); and (e) obtaining a capital contribution from our Sponsor, which could result in the issuance of new G4G Class A ordinary shares. Any G4G Class A ordinary shares purchased by the Sponsor in the open market or from us would not be voted in connection with the proposals.

If the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal is not approved and the Redemption Limitation is exceeded, either because we do not take action to increase our net tangible assets or because our attempt to do so is not successful, then we will not proceed with the Redemption Limitation Amendment and we will not redeem any public shares in the redemption. In such case, the Existing Articles would prevent G4G from being able to consummate the Business Combination even if all other conditions to closing are met. Accordingly, public shares which a public shareholder elects to redeem but which are not redeemed shall be returned to such public shareholder or such public shareholder’s account and such public shareholder will retain the right to have their public shares redeemed for cash if the Company has not completed an initial business combination by the Liquidation Date.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

The Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

Resolution

The full text of the resolution to be passed is as follows:

“RESOLVED, as a special resolution, that, effective as of immediately prior to the Domestication (as defined in the proxy statement/prospectus relating to the extraordinary general meeting), article 36.5(c) of the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association as currently in effect be deleted in its entirety.”

Recommendation of G4G’s Board of Directors

THE G4G BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE G4G SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE REDEMPTION LIMITATION AMENDMENT PROPOSAL.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of G4G’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. In addition, G4G’s officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder. See the section entitled “— Interests of G4G’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Business Combination” for a further discussion of these considerations.

PROPOSAL NO. 3 — DOMESTICATION PROPOSAL

Overview

As discussed in this proxy statement/prospectus, if the BCA Proposal is approved, then G4G is asking its shareholders to approve the Domestication Proposal. Under the Merger Agreement, the approval of the Domestication Proposal is also a condition to the consummation of the Merger. If, however, the Domestication Proposal is approved, but the BCA Proposal is not approved, then neither the Domestication nor the Merger will be consummated.

As a condition to Closing the Merger, the board of directors of G4G has unanimously approved a change of G4G’s jurisdiction of incorporation by deregistering as an exempted company by way of continuation out of the Cayman Islands and domesticating as a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. In accordance with G4G’s Plan of Domestication (included as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this proxy statement/prospectus is a part), to effect the Domestication, G4G will file an application for deregistration with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies, together with the necessary accompanying documents, and file a certificate of incorporation and a certificate of corporate domestication with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, under which G4G will be domesticated and continue as a Delaware corporation.

As a result of and upon the effective time of the Domestication, (1) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G Class A ordinary shares will convert automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock, (2) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G Class B ordinary shares will convert automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock, (3) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G warrants will convert automatically into one New ZeroNox warrant, pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, (4) each of the then issued and outstanding G4G units will separate automatically into one share of New ZeroNox common stock, one-half of one New ZeroNox warrant and one New ZeroNox right and (5) each of the then issued and outstanding rights of G4G (the “G4G rights”) will convert automatically into one right to acquire one-sixteenth of one share of New ZeroNox common stock (the “New ZeroNox rights”) upon the consummation of the business combination.

The Domestication Proposal, if approved, will approve a change of G4G’s jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware. Accordingly, while G4G is currently governed by the Cayman Islands Companies Act, upon the Domestication, New ZeroNox will be governed by the DGCL. We encourage shareholders to carefully consult the information set out below under “Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights.” Additionally, we note that if the Domestication Proposal is approved, then G4G will also ask its shareholders to approve the Organizational Documents Proposals (discussed below), which, if approved, will replace G4G’s current memorandum and articles of association under the Cayman Islands Companies Act with a new certificate of incorporation and bylaws of New ZeroNox under the DGCL. The Proposed Organizational Documents differ in certain material respects from the Cayman Constitutional Documents and we encourage shareholders to carefully consult the information set out below under “Organizational Documents Proposals,” the Cayman Constitutional Documents of G4G, attached hereto as Annex H and the Proposed Organizational Documents of New ZeroNox, attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D and Annex E.

Reasons for the Domestication

Our board of directors believes that there are significant advantages to us that will arise as a result of a change of our domicile to Delaware. Further, our board of directors believes that any direct benefit that the DGCL provides to a corporation also indirectly benefits its stockholders, who are the owners of the corporation.

The board of directors of G4G believes that there are several reasons why a reincorporation in Delaware is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders. As explained in more detail below, these reasons can be summarized as follows:

●

Prominence, Predictability, and Flexibility of Delaware Law. For many years, Delaware has followed a policy of encouraging incorporation in its state and, in furtherance of that policy, has been a leader in adopting, construing, and implementing comprehensive, flexible corporate laws responsive to the legal and business needs of corporations organized under its laws. Many corporations have chosen Delaware initially as a state of incorporation or have subsequently changed corporate domicile to Delaware. Because of Delaware’s prominence as the state of incorporation for many major corporations, both the legislature and courts in Delaware have demonstrated the ability and a willingness to act quickly and effectively to meet changing business needs. The DGCL is frequently revised and updated to accommodate changing legal and business needs and is more comprehensive, widely used and interpreted than other state corporate laws. This favorable corporate and regulatory environment is attractive to businesses such as ours.

149

●

Well-Established Principles of Corporate Governance. There is substantial judicial precedent in the Delaware courts as to the legal principles applicable to measures that may be taken by a corporation and to the conduct of a company’s board of directors, such as under the business judgment rule and other standards. Because the judicial system is based largely on legal precedents, the abundance of Delaware case law provides clarity and predictability to many areas of corporate law. We believe such clarity would be advantageous to New ZeroNox, its board of directors and management to make corporate decisions and take corporate actions with greater assurance as to the validity and consequences of those decisions and actions. Further, investors and securities professionals are generally more familiar with Delaware corporations, and the laws governing such corporations, increasing their level of comfort with Delaware corporations relative to other jurisdictions. The Delaware courts have developed considerable expertise in dealing with corporate issues, and a substantial body of case law has developed construing Delaware law and establishing public policies with respect to corporate legal affairs. Moreover, Delaware’s vast body of law on the fiduciary duties of directors provides appropriate protection for New ZeroNox’s stockholders from possible abuses by directors and officers.

●

Increased Ability to Attract and Retain Qualified Directors. Reincorporation from the Cayman Islands to Delaware is attractive to directors, officers, and stockholders alike. New ZeroNox’s incorporation in Delaware may make New ZeroNox more attractive to future candidates for our board of directors, because many such candidates are already familiar with Delaware corporate law from their past business experience. To date, we have not experienced difficulty in retaining directors or officers, but directors of public companies are exposed to significant potential liability. Thus, candidates’ familiarity and comfort with Delaware laws — especially those relating to director indemnification (as discussed below) — draw such qualified candidates to Delaware corporations. Our board of directors therefore believes that providing the benefits afforded directors by Delaware law will enable New ZeroNox to compete more effectively with other public companies in the recruitment of talented and experienced directors and officers. Moreover, Delaware’s vast body of law on the fiduciary duties of directors provides appropriate protection for our stockholders from possible abuses by directors and officers.

The frequency of claims and litigation pursued against directors and officers has greatly expanded the risks facing directors and officers of corporations in carrying out their respective duties. The amount of time and money required to respond to such claims and to defend such litigation can be substantial. While both Cayman and Delaware law permit a corporation to include a provision in its governing documents to reduce or eliminate the monetary liability of directors for breaches of fiduciary duty in certain circumstances, we believe that, in general, Delaware law is more developed and provides more guidance than Cayman law on matters regarding a company’s ability to limit director liability. As a result, we believe that the corporate environment afforded by Delaware will enable the surviving corporation to compete more effectively with other public companies in attracting and retaining new directors.

Expected Accounting Treatment of the Domestication

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Domestication Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. G4G initial shareholders have ten votes for every share they hold on the Domestication Proposal. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

The Domestication Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Domestication Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

PROPOSALS NO. 4 - 8 — ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS PROPOSALS

If the Domestication Proposal is approved and the Business Combination is to be consummated, G4G will replace the Cayman Constitutional Documents, under the Cayman Islands Companies Act, with a proposed new certificate of incorporation (the “Proposed Certificate of Incorporation”) and proposed new bylaws (the “Proposed Bylaws” and, together with the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation, the “Proposed Organizational Documents”) and change the name of G4G, in each case, under the DGCL.

G4G’s shareholders are asked to consider and vote upon and to approve by special resolution five separate proposals (collectively, the “Organizational Documents Proposals”) in connection with the replacement of the Cayman Constitutional Documents with the Proposed Organizational Documents. The Organizational Documents Proposals are conditioned on the approval of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Organizational Documents Proposals will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

The Proposed Organizational Documents differ materially from the Cayman Constitutional Documents. The following table sets forth a summary of the principal changes proposed between the Existing Memorandum and the Existing Articles and the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and Proposed Bylaws for New ZeroNox. This summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the Cayman Constitutional Documents of G4G, attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex H, the complete text of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D and the complete text of the Proposed Bylaws, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex E. All shareholders are encouraged to read each of the Proposed Organizational Documents in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms. Additionally, as the Cayman Constitutional Documents are governed by the Cayman Islands Companies Act and the Proposed Organizational Documents will be governed by the DGCL, we encourage shareholders to carefully consult the information set out under the “Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights” section of this proxy statement/prospectus.

PROPOSAL NO. 4 — ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS PROPOSAL A — APPROVAL OF AUTHORIZATION OF CHANGE TO AUTHORIZED SHARE CAPITAL, AS SET FORTH IN THE PROPOSED ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS

Overview

G4G is asking its shareholders to authorize the change in the authorized share capital of G4G from (i) $50,000 divided into 479,000,000 G4G Class A ordinary shares, 20,000,000 G4G Class B ordinary shares and 1,000,000 preference shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of G4G (the “G4G Preference Shares”) to (ii) shares of New ZeroNox common stock and shares of New ZeroNox preferred stock.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, New ZeroNox will issue or, as applicable, reserve for issuance in respect of ZeroNox Options outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing that will be converted into awards based on New ZeroNox common stock, an aggregate of shares of New ZeroNox common stock to ZeroNox Shareholders.

In order to ensure that New ZeroNox has sufficient authorized capital for future issuances, the G4G Board has approved, subject to shareholder approval, that the Proposed Organizational Documents of New ZeroNox change the authorized share capital of G4G from (i) 479,000,000 G4G Class A ordinary shares, 20,000,000 G4G Class B ordinary shares and 1,000,000 G4G Preference Shares to (ii) shares of New ZeroNox common stock and shares of New ZeroNox preferred stock.

This summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the Proposed Organizational Documents of New ZeroNox, copies of which are attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D and Annex E. All stockholders are encouraged to read the Proposed Organizational Documents in their entirety for a more complete description of their terms.

Reasons for the Amendments

The principal purpose of this proposal is to provide for an authorized capital structure of New ZeroNox that will enable it to continue as an operating company governed by the DGCL. Our board of directors believes that it is important for us to have available for issuance a number of authorized shares of common stock and preferred stock sufficient to support our growth and to provide flexibility for future corporate needs.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of Organizational Documents Proposal A requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as votes cast at the extraordinary general meeting. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

Organizational Documents Proposal A is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if each of the Condition Precedent Approvals is not approved, the Organizational Documents Proposal A will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

PROPOSAL NO. 5 — ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS PROPOSAL B — APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL REGARDING ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK OF NEW ZERONOX AT THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ SOLE DISCRETION, AS SET FORTH IN THE PROPOSED ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS

Overview

G4G is asking its shareholders to authorize the board of directors of New ZeroNox to issue any or all shares of New ZeroNox preferred stock in one or more classes or series, with such terms and conditions as may be expressly determined by New ZeroNox’s board of directors and as may be permitted by the DGCL.

If Organizational Documents Proposal B is approved, the number of authorized shares of preferred stock of New ZeroNox will be shares. Approval of this Organizational Documents Proposal B will allow for issuance of any or all of these shares of preferred stock from time to time at the discretion of the board of directors, as may be permitted by the DGCL, and without further stockholder action. The shares of preferred stock would be issuable for any proper corporate purpose, including, among other things, future acquisitions, capital raising transactions consisting of equity or convertible debt, stock dividends or issuances under current and any future stock incentive plans, pursuant to which we may provide equity incentives to employees, officers and directors, and in certain instances may be used as an antitakeover defense.

Reasons for the Amendments

Our board of directors believes that these additional shares will provide us with needed flexibility to issue shares in the future in a timely manner and under circumstances we consider favorable without incurring the risk, delay and potential expense incident to obtaining stockholder approval for a particular issuance.

Authorized but unissued preferred stock may enable the board of directors to render it more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of New ZeroNox and thereby protect continuity of or entrench its management, which may adversely affect the market price of New ZeroNox and its securities. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, for example, the board of directors was to determine that a takeover proposal was not in the best interests of New ZeroNox, such preferred stock could be issued by the board of directors without stockholder approval in one or more private placements or other transactions that might prevent or render more difficult or make more costly the completion of any attempted takeover transaction by diluting voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder group, by creating a substantial voting bloc in institutional or other hands that might support the position of the board of directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise. Allowing New ZeroNox’s board of directors to issue the authorized preferred stock on its own volition will enable New ZeroNox to have the flexibility to issue such preferred stock in the future for financing its business, for acquiring other businesses, for forming strategic partnerships and alliances and for stock dividends and stock splits. New ZeroNox currently has no such plans, proposals, or arrangements, written or otherwise, to issue any of the additional authorized stock for such purposes.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of Organizational Documents Proposal B requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as votes cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

Organizational Documents Proposal B is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Organizational Documents Proposal B will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

PROPOSAL NO. 6 — ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS PROPOSAL C — APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL

REGARDING ADOPTION OF DELAWARE AS THE EXCLUSIVE FORUM

FOR CERTAIN STOCKHOLDER LITIGATION

Overview

G4G is asking its shareholders to authorize the adoption of Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation.

Assuming the BCA Proposal and the Domestication Proposal are approved, our shareholders are also being asked to approve Organizational Documents Proposal C, which is, in the judgment of our board of directors, necessary to adequately address the needs of New ZeroNox after the Business Combination.

If Organizational Documents Proposal C is approved, the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware (the “Court of Chancery”) will be the sole and exclusive forum (or, in the event that the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware or other state courts of the State of Delaware) for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring (i) any derivative action, suit or proceeding brought on New ZeroNox’s behalf, (ii) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or stockholder of New ZeroNox to New ZeroNox or New ZeroNox’s stockholders, (iii) any action, suit or proceeding arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation or the Proposed Bylaws (as either may be amended from time to time), (iv) any action, suit or proceeding as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery, or (v) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim against New ZeroNox or any current or former director, officer or stockholder governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation will provide that the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Similarly, Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of the foregoing is filed in a court other than a court located within the State of Delaware (a “Foreign Action”) in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the provisions related to exclusive forum described above (an “Enforcement Action”) and (ii) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such Enforcement Action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.

Reasons for the Amendments

Adopting Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation is intended to assist New ZeroNox in avoiding multiple lawsuits in multiple jurisdictions regarding the same matter. The ability to require such claims to be brought in a single forum will help to assure consistent consideration of the issues, the application of a relatively known body of case law and level of expertise and should promote efficiency and cost-savings in the resolutions of such claims. Our board of directors believes that the Delaware courts are best suited to address disputes involving such matters given that after the Domestication, New ZeroNox will be incorporated in Delaware. Delaware law generally applies to such matters and the Delaware courts have a reputation for expertise in corporate law matters. Delaware offers a specialized Court of Chancery to address corporate law matters, with streamlined procedures and processes, which help provide relatively quick decisions. This accelerated schedule can minimize the time, cost and uncertainty of litigation for all parties. The Court of Chancery has developed considerable expertise with respect to corporate law issues, as well as a substantial and influential body of case law construing Delaware’s corporate law and long-standing precedent regarding corporate governance. This provides stockholders and the post-combination company with more predictability regarding the outcome of intra- corporate disputes. In the event the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the other state courts located in Delaware would be the most appropriate forums because these courts have more expertise on matters of Delaware law compared to other jurisdictions; provided that these exclusive forum provisions will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or to any claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

Table of Contents

Adopting U.S. federal district courts as the exclusive forum for resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act is intended to assist the Company in resolving such disputes in a consistent manner with greater uniformity of procedures and precedents. The ability to require such claims to be brought within a single judicial system will help to assure consistent consideration of the issues, encourage consistent application of a relatively known body of case law and perceived level of expertise. Our board of directors believes that the U.S. federal district courts are best suited to address disputes involving actions arising under the Securities Act given that the Securities Act is promulgated by the federal government. This provides stockholders and the post-combination company with more predictability regarding the outcome of disputes arising under the Securities Act.

In addition, this amendment would promote judicial fairness and avoid conflicting results, as well as make the post-combination company’s defense of applicable claims less disruptive and more economically feasible, principally by avoiding duplicative discovery.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of Organizational Documents Proposal C requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

Organizational Documents Proposal C is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Organizational Documents Proposal C will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

G4G is asking its shareholders to authorize the election not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL and, instead, be governed by a provision substantially similar to Section 203 of the DGCL.

Assuming the BCA Proposal and the Domestication Proposal are approved, our shareholders are also being asked to approve Organizational Documents Proposal D, which is, in the judgment of our board of directors, necessary to adequately address the needs of New ZeroNox after the Business Combination.

If Organizational Documents Proposal D is approved, the Proposed Organizational Documents will cause New ZeroNox to not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL and, instead, include a provision in the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation that is substantially similar to Section 203 of the DGCL. Under Article X of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation, for so long as New ZeroNox’s securities are registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), New ZeroNox will not be able to engage in a business combination with any “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that a person becomes an “interested stockholder” (as defined in the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation), unless: (a) before such stockholder becomes an “interested stockholder,” the board of directors approves either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; (b) upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the outstanding voting stock of New ZeroNox at the time of the transaction, excluding for purposes of determining the outstanding voting stock (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) those shares owned by (i) persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or (c) at the time or after the stockholder became an interested stockholder, the business combination is approved by board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the outstanding voting stock of New ZeroNox which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

Reasons for the Amendments

Our board of directors intends to shield stockholders from the coerciveness of front-end loaded two- tier offers by preventing the offeror from effecting the second step of the offer unless the target’s board of directors approves such transaction.

New ZeroNox will not be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, an anti-takeover law. Section 203 is a default provision of the DGCL that prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination, such as a merger, with “interested stockholders” (a person or group owning 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock) for three years following the date that a person becomes an interested stockholder, unless: (i) before such stockholder becomes an “interested stockholder,” the board of directors approves the Business Combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; (ii) upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation at the time of the transaction (excluding stock owned by certain persons); or (iii) at the time or after the stockholder became an interested stockholder, the board of directors and at least two-thirds of the disinterested outstanding voting stock of the corporation approves the transaction. While Section 203 is the default provision under the DGCL, the DGCL allows companies to opt out of Section 203 of the DGCL by including a provision in their certificate of incorporation expressly electing not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL.

Our board of directors has elected to opt out of Section 203, but the board of directors believes that it is in the best interests of stockholders to have protections similar to those afforded by Section 203. These provisions will encourage any potential acquiror to negotiate with the board of directors and therefore provides an opportunity to possibly obtain a higher purchase price than would otherwise be offered in connection with a proposed acquisition of New ZeroNox. Such provisions may make it more difficult for an acquirer to consummate certain types of unfriendly or hostile corporate takeovers or other transactions involving New ZeroNox that have not been approved by the board of directors. The board of directors believes that while such provisions will provide some measure

160

Table of Contents

of protection against an interested stockholder that is proposing a two-tiered transaction structure that is unduly coercive, it would not ultimately prevent a potential takeover that enjoys the support of stockholders and will also help to prevent a third party from acquiring “creeping control” of New ZeroNox without paying a fair premium to all stockholders.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of Organizational Documents Proposal D requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

Organizational Documents Proposal D is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Organizational Documents Proposal D will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

PROPOSAL NO. 8 — ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS PROPOSAL E — APPROVAL OF OTHER CHANGES IN CONNECTION WITH ADOPTION OF THE PROPOSED ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS

Overview

G4G is asking its shareholders to authorize all other changes in connection with the replacement of Cayman Constitutional Documents with the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and Proposed Bylaws in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination (copies of which are attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D and Annex E, respectively), including (1) changing the corporate name from “The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation” to “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.,” (2) making New ZeroNox’s corporate existence perpetual and (3) removing certain provisions related to G4G’s status as a blank check company that will no longer be applicable upon consummation of the Business Combination, all of which the G4G Board believes is necessary to adequately address the needs of New ZeroNox after the Business Combination.

Assuming the BCA Proposal and the Domestication Proposal are approved, our shareholders are also being asked to approve Organizational Documents Proposal E, which is, in the judgment of our board of directors, necessary to adequately address the needs of New ZeroNox after the Business Combination.

The Proposed Organizational Documents will not contain provisions related to a blank check company (including those related to operation of the trust account, winding up of G4G’s operations should G4G not complete a business combination by a specified date, and other such blank check-specific provisions as are present in the Cayman Constitutional Documents) because following the consummation of the Merger, New ZeroNox will not be a blank check company.

Approval of each of the Organizational Documents Proposals, assuming approval of each of the other Condition Precedent Proposals, will result, upon the Domestication, in the wholesale replacement of the Cayman Constitutional Documents with New ZeroNox’s Proposed Organizational Documents. While certain material changes between the Cayman Constitutional Documents and the Proposed Organizational Documents have been unbundled into distinct organizational documents proposals or otherwise identified in this Organizational Documents Proposal E, there are other differences between the Cayman Constitutional Documents and Proposed Organizational Documents (arising from, among other things, differences between the Cayman Islands Companies Act and the DGCL and the typical form of organizational documents under each such body of law) that will be approved (subject to the approval of the aforementioned related proposals and consummation of the Business Combination) if our shareholders approve this Organizational Documents Proposal E. Accordingly, we encourage shareholders to carefully review the terms of the Proposed Organizational Documents of New ZeroNox, attached hereto as Annex D and Annex E as well as the information provided in the “Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights” section of this proxy statement/prospectus.

Reasons for the Amendments

Corporate Name

Our board of directors believes that changing the post-business combination corporate name from “The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation” to “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.” is desirable to reflect the Business Combination with ZeroNox and to clearly identify New ZeroNox as the publicly traded entity.

Perpetual Existence

Our board of directors believes that making New ZeroNox’s corporate existence perpetual is desirable to reflect the Business Combination. Additionally, perpetual existence is the usual period of existence for public corporations, and our board of directors believes that it is the most appropriate period for New ZeroNox following the Business Combination.

Provisions Related to Status as Blank Check Company

The elimination of certain provisions related to G4G’s status as a blank check company is desirable because these provisions will serve no purpose following the Business Combination. For example, the Proposed Organizational Documents do not include the requirement to dissolve New ZeroNox and allows it to continue as a corporate entity with perpetual existence following consummation of the Business Combination. Perpetual existence is the usual period of existence for public corporations, and the G4G Board believes it is the most appropriate period for New ZeroNox following the Business Combination. In addition, certain other provisions in G4G’s current certificate require that proceeds from G4G’s initial public offering be held in the trust account until a business combination or

162

Table of Contents

liquidation of G4G has occurred. These provisions cease to apply once the Business Combination is consummated and are therefore not included in the Proposed Organizational Documents.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of Organizational Documents Proposal E requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands Companies Act, being the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered nondiscretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

Organizational Documents Proposal E is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Organizational Documents Proposal E will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

PROPOSAL NO. 9 — DIRECTOR ELECTION PROPOSAL

Overview

G4G is asking holders of its Class B ordinary shares to consider and vote upon a proposal, assuming the BCA Proposal, the Domestication Proposal and the Organizational Documents Proposals are approved, to elect seven (7) directors, including (A) two (2) individuals to be designated by the Sponsor as directors, (B) four (4) individuals to be designated by ZeroNox as directors and (C) one (1) independent director designated mutually by the Sponsor and ZeroNox, who, upon consummation of the Business Combination, will be the directors of New ZeroNox (“Director Election Proposal”).

Nominees

As contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Board of New ZeroNox following the Business Combination will consist of seven (7) directors, including:

(A)two (2) individuals to be designated by the Sponsor as directors, who are expected to be Yana Watson Kakar and Dana Barsky, and will thereafter be designated, nominated and elected as contemplated by the Proposed Organizational Documents,

(B)four (4) individuals to be designated by ZeroNox as directors, who are expected to be Vonn Christenson, Robert Cruess, Kelley Ivancovich and Eugene Arthur Cuelho, Jr., and will thereafter be designated, nominated and elected as contemplated by the Proposed Organizational Documents, and

(C)one (1) independent director designated mutually by the Sponsor and ZeroNox, who is expected to be , and will thereafter be designated, nominated and elected as contemplated by the Proposed Organizational Documents.

Accordingly, our board of directors has nominated each of Yana Watson Kakar, Dana Barsky, Vonn Christenson, Robert Cruess, Kelley Ivancovich, Eugene Arthur Cuelho, Jr. and to serve as our directors upon the consummation of the Business Combination, with to serve as the Chairperson of the board of directors, in each case, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Proposed Organizational Documents. For more information on the experience of each of these director nominees, please see the section titled “Management of New ZeroNox Following the Business Combination” of this proxy statement/prospectus.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Director Election Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. Under the terms of the Cayman Constitutional Documents, prior to the closing of G4G’s initial business combination, only the holders of the G4G Class B ordinary shares are entitled to vote on the election of directors to our board of directors. Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G agreed to vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Therefore, the Director Election Proposal is expected to be approved by the Sponsor and certain directors and officers of G4G at the extraordinary general meeting. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

The Director Election Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Director Election Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

PROPOSAL NO. 10 — STOCK ISSUANCE PROPOSAL

Overview

G4G is asking its shareholders to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve by ordinary resolution, assuming the BCA Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposals and the Director Election Proposal are approved, for the purposes of complying with the applicable rules of the Nasdaq, the issuance of shares of New ZeroNox common stock to (b) shares of New ZeroNox common stock to the ZeroNox Shareholders pursuant to the Merger Agreement (the “Stock Issuance Proposal”).

Reasons for the Approval for the Stock Issuance Proposal

G4G is seeking shareholder approval in order to comply with Rules 5635(a), (b), and (d), as applicable, of the Nasdaq Listed Company Manual.

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), shareholder approval is required prior to the issuance of common stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, in connection with the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company, if such securities are not issued in a public offering and (i) the common stock has, or will have upon issuance, voting power equal to or in excess of 20% of the voting power outstanding before the issuance of such securities, or (ii) the number of shares of common stock to be issued is or will be equal to or in excess of 20% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding before the issuance of such securities. The aggregate number of shares of common stock that G4G will issue in the Business Combination will exceed 20% of both the voting power and the shares of New ZeroNox common stock outstanding before such issuance, and for this reason, G4G is seeking the approval of its shareholders for the foregoing issuances.

Second, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b), shareholder approval is required prior to the issuance of securities when the issuance or potential issuance will result in a change in control of the company. Here, the issuance of common stock to the equityholders of New ZeroNox will result in a change of control of G4G. Accordingly, G4G is seeking the approval of its shareholders for such issuances.

In the event that this proposal is not approved by G4G shareholders, the Business Combination cannot be consummated. In the event that this proposal is approved by G4G shareholders, but the Merger Agreement is terminated (without the Business Combination being consummated) prior to the issuance of shares of New ZeroNox common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement, such shares of New ZeroNox common stock will not be issued.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting.

The Stock Issuance Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Stock Issuance Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

Resolution

The full text of the resolution to be passed is as follows:

“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that, for the purposes of complying with the applicable provisions of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635, the issuance of shares of New ZeroNox common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement, including to ZeroNox Shareholders, be approved in all respects.”

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of G4G’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of G4G and its shareholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. In addition, G4G’s officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a shareholder.

PROPOSAL NO. 11 — INCENTIVE AWARD PLAN PROPOSAL

Overview

G4G is asking its shareholders to approve by ordinary resolution The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation 2023 Incentive Award Plan (the “2023 Plan”) and the material terms thereunder. The G4G Board approved the 2023 Plan, prior to the G4G extraordinary general meeting, subject to shareholder approval at the G4G extraordinary general meeting. The 2023 Plan will become effective as of the date immediately prior to the Closing, subject to approval by the G4G shareholders.

The 2023 Plan is described in more detail below. A copy of the 2023 Plan is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex F.

The 2023 Plan

The principal purpose of the 2023 Plan is to attract, retain and motivate selected employees, consultants and directors through the granting of stock-based compensation awards and cash-based performance bonus awards. Equity awards and equity-linked compensatory opportunities are intended to motivate high levels of performance and align the interests of directors, employees and consultants with those of shareholders by giving directors, employees and consultants the perspective of an owner with an equity or equity-linked stake in our company and providing a means of recognizing their contributions to our success. The G4G Board believes that equity awards are necessary for the post-combination company to remain competitive in its industry and are essential to recruiting and retaining highly qualified employees.

Summary of the 2023 Plan

This section summarizes certain principal features of the 2023 Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the 2023 Plan.

Eligibility and Administration

Options, restricted stock units and other stock-based and cash-based awards under the 2023 Plan may be granted to individuals who are then our officers, employees or consultants or are the officers, employees or consultants of any of our subsidiaries. Such awards also may be granted to our directors. Only employees of our company or any of our subsidiaries may be granted incentive stock options (“ISOs”). Following the consummation of the Business Combination, New ZeroNox is expected to have approximately employees, consultants and non-employee directors who will be eligible to receive awards under the 2023 Plan.

The compensation committee of our board of directors is expected to administer the 2023 Plan unless our board of directors assumes authority for administration. The compensation committee must consist of at least three members of our board of directors, each of whom is intended to qualify as a “non-employee director” for purposes of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act and an “independent director” within the meaning of the rules of the applicable stock exchange, or other principal securities market on which shares of our common stock are traded. The 2023 Plan provides that the board or compensation committee may delegate its authority to grant awards to employees (other than executive officers and certain senior executives of the company) to a committee consisting of one or more members of our board of directors or one or more of our officers, other than awards made to our non-employee directors, which must be approved by our full board of directors.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the 2023 Plan, the administrator has the authority to select the persons to whom awards are to be made, to determine the number of shares to be subject to awards and the terms and conditions of awards, and to make all other determinations and to take all other actions necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2023 Plan. The administrator is also authorized to adopt, amend or rescind rules relating to administration of the 2023 Plan. Our board of directors may at any time remove the compensation committee as the administrator and revest in itself the authority to administer the 2023 Plan. The full board of directors will administer the 2023 Plan with respect to awards to non-employee directors.

Shares Available for Awards

Under the 2023 Plan, shares of our common stock will be initially reserved for issuance pursuant to a variety of stock-based compensation awards, including stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance bonus awards, performance stock unit awards, dividend equivalents and other stock or cash based awards.

168

Table of Contents

The following counting provisions will be in effect for the share reserve under the 2023 Plan:

●

to the extent that an award terminates, expires or lapses for any reason or an award is settled in cash without the delivery of shares, any shares subject to the award at such time will be available for future grants under the 2023 Plan;

●

to the extent shares are tendered or withheld to satisfy the tax withholding obligation with respect to any award, such shares will not be available for future grants under the 2023 Plan;

●

to the extent shares are tendered or withheld in payment of the exercise price of a stock option award or not issued in connection with stock settlement of a SAR, such shares will not be available for future grants under the 2023 Plan;

●

the payment of dividend equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding awards will not be counted against the shares available for issuance under the 2023 Plan; and

●

to the extent permitted by applicable law or any exchange rule, shares issued in assumption of, or in substitution for, any outstanding awards of any entity acquired in any form of combination by us or any of our subsidiaries will not be counted against the shares available for issuance under the 2023 Plan.

The 2023 Plan also provides that the sum of the grant date fair value of all equity-based awards and the maximum that may become payable pursuant to a cash-based award to any individual for services as a non-employee director during any calendar year may not exceed $500,000. The closing price of G4G Class A ordinary shares on Nasdaq as of March 31, 2023, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, was $10.26 per share.

Types of Awards

The 2023 Plan provides that the administrator may grant or issue stock options, SARs, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance bonus awards, performance stock units, other stock- or cash-based awards and dividend equivalents, or any combination thereof. Each award will be set forth in a separate agreement with the person receiving the award and will indicate the type, terms and conditions of the award.

●

Non-Qualified Stock Options (“NSOs”) provide for the right to purchase shares of our common stock at a specified price that may not be less than fair market value on the date of grant, and usually will become exercisable (at the discretion of the administrator) in one or more installments after the grant date, subject to the participant’s continued employment or service with us and/or subject to the satisfaction of corporate performance targets and individual performance targets established by the administrator. NSOs may be granted for any term specified by the administrator that does not exceed ten years.

●

Incentive Stock Options will be designed in a manner intended to comply with the provisions of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and will be subject to specified restrictions contained in the Code. Among such restrictions, ISOs must have an exercise price of not less than the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant, may only be granted to employees, and must not be exercisable after a period of ten years measured from the date of grant. In the case of an ISO granted to an individual who owns (or is deemed to own) at least 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our capital stock, the exercise price must be at least 110% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant and the ISO must not be exercisable after a period of five years measured from the date of grant.

●

Restricted Stock may be granted to any eligible individual and made subject to such restrictions as may be determined by the administrator. Restricted stock, typically, may be forfeited for no consideration or repurchased by us at the original purchase price if the conditions or restrictions on vesting are not met. In general, restricted stock may not be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions are removed or expire. Holders of restricted stock, unlike recipients of options, will have voting rights and will have the right to receive dividends, if any, prior to the time when the restrictions lapse, however, dividends will not be released until restrictions are removed or expire.

●

Restricted Stock Units may be awarded to any eligible individual, typically without payment of consideration, but subject to vesting conditions based on continued employment or service or on performance criteria established by the administrator. Like restricted stock, restricted stock units may not be sold, or otherwise transferred or hypothecated, until vesting conditions are removed or expire. Unlike restricted stock, stock underlying restricted stock units will not be issued until the restricted stock

169

Table of Contents

units have vested, and recipients of restricted stock units generally will have no voting or dividend rights prior to the time when vesting conditions are satisfied.

●

Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted in connection with stock options or other awards, or separately. SARs granted in connection with stock options or other awards typically will provide for payments to the holder based upon increases in the price of our common stock over a set exercise price. The exercise price of any SAR granted under the 2023 Plan must be at least 100% of the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of grant. SARs under the 2023 Plan will be settled in cash or shares of our common stock, or in a combination of both, at the election of the administrator.

●

Performance Bonus Awards and Performance Stock Units are denominated in cash or shares/unit equivalents, respectively, that are linked to the attainment of one or more performance or other criteria as established and determined by the administrator.

●

Other Stock or Cash Based Awards are awards of cash, fully vested shares of our common stock and other awards valued wholly or partially by referring to, or otherwise based on, shares of our common stock. Other stock or cash based awards may be granted to participants and may also be available as a payment form in the settlement of other awards, as standalone payments and as payment in lieu of base salary, bonus, fees or other cash compensation otherwise payable to any individual who is eligible to receive awards. The administrator will determine the terms and conditions of other stock or cash based awards, which may include vesting conditions based on continued service, performance and/or other conditions.

●

Dividend Equivalents represent the right to receive the equivalent value of dividends paid on shares of our common stock and may be granted in tandem with awards other than stock options or SARs. Dividend equivalents are converted to cash or shares by such formula and such time as determined by the administrator. Dividend equivalents may be paid currently or credited to an account for the applicable participant, settled in cash or shares, and subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the award with respect to which the dividend equivalents are granted. In addition, dividend equivalents with respect to an awards subject to vesting will either (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law, not be paid or credited or (ii) be accumulated and subject to vesting to the same extent as the related award.

Any award granted under the 2023 Plan may be granted as a performance award, meaning that the award will be subject to vesting and/or payment based on the attainment of specified performance goals.

Certain Transactions

In the event of any nonreciprocal transaction with our shareholders (such as a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off or recapitalization through a large, nonrecurring cash dividend), that affects the number or kind of outstanding shares of our common stock (or other securities) or the share price of our common stock, and that causes a change in the per-share value of the common stock underlying outstanding awards under the 2023 Plan, the administrator will equitably adjust the terms of the 2023 Plan and each outstanding award as it deems appropriate to reflect such transaction, which may include (i) making adjustments to the number and type of shares subject to each outstanding award or with respect to which awards may be granted under the 2023 Plan; (ii) making adjustments to the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and any applicable performance targets or criteria included in, outstanding awards; and (iii) granting new awards or making cash payments to participants.

Further, in the event of any corporate transaction (such as a stock dividend or other distribution, reorganization, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, recapitalization, repurchase, liquidation, dissolution, or sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets, or other similar corporate transaction or event, other unusual or nonrecurring transaction or event affecting us or our financial statements, or any change in any applicable law or accounting principles), the administrator may take certain actions specified in the 2023 Plan in order to (x) prevent the dilution or enlargement of the potential benefits intended to be made available under the 2023 Plan or with respect to any award granted or issued thereunder, (y) to facilitate such corporate transaction or event, or (z) give effect to such changes in applicable law or accounting principles.

In the event of a change in control (as defined in the 2023 Plan), to the extent that the successor entity does not assume or substitute for an outstanding award (other than any portion subject to performance-based vesting), then all such awards will become fully vested and, if applicable, exercisable, in connection with the transaction. The impact of a change in control on portions of an award subject to performance-based vesting will generally be governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement or administrator discretion in the absence of such terms and conditions.

Amendment and Termination

Our board of directors may terminate, amend or suspend the 2023 Plan at any time and from time to time. However, we must generally obtain shareholder approval to the extent required by applicable law, rule or regulation (including any applicable stock exchange rule). No amendments to outstanding awards that materially and adversely affect a participant’s rights under the award may be made without participant consent, except in connection with certain transactions (such as equity restructurings, corporate transactions, or a change in control) or to preserve the intended tax treatment of the participant’s award. The administrator does not have the authority to amend any outstanding option or SAR to reduce its exercise price per share or cancel any option or SAR in exchange for cash or another award, in each case, without shareholder approval.

No ISOs may be granted pursuant to the 2023 Plan after the tenth anniversary of the date our board of directors approved the 2023 Plan, and no additional annual share increases to the 2023 Plan’s aggregate share limit will occur from and after such anniversary. Any award that is outstanding on the termination date of the 2023 Plan will remain in force according to the terms of the 2023 Plan and the applicable award agreement.

Foreign Participants, Claw-back Provisions, Transferability and Participant Payments

The administrator may modify awards granted to participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States or establish subplans or procedures to address differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such foreign jurisdictions. All awards will be subject to recoupment by the company to the extent required to comply with applicable law or any claw-back, recoupment or similar policy of the company (whether or not such policy was in place at the time an award was granted). Except as the administrator may determine or provide in an award agreement, awards under the 2023 Plan are generally non-transferrable, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or, subject to the administrator’s consent, pursuant to a domestic relations order, and are generally exercisable only by the participant. With regard to tax withholding obligations arising in connection with awards under the 2023 Plan, and exercise price obligations arising in connection with the exercise of stock options under the 2023 Plan, the administrator may, in its discretion, accept cash, wire transfer or check, shares of common stock that meet specified conditions, a promissory note, a “market sell order,” such other consideration as the administrator deems suitable, or any combination of the foregoing.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a general summary under current law of the principal United States federal income tax consequences related to awards under the 2023 Plan. This summary deals with the general federal income tax principles that apply and is provided only for general information. Some kinds of taxes, such as state, local and foreign income taxes and federal employment taxes, are not discussed. This summary is not intended as tax advice to participants, who should consult their own tax advisors.

●

Non-Qualified Stock Options. If an optionee is granted an NSO under the 2023 Plan, the optionee should not have taxable income on the grant of the option. Generally, the optionee should recognize ordinary income at the time of exercise in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares acquired on the date of exercise, less the exercise price paid for the shares. The optionee’s basis in the common stock for purposes of determining gain or loss on a subsequent sale or disposition of such shares generally will be the fair market value of our common stock on the date the optionee exercises such option. Any subsequent gain or loss will be taxable as a long-term or short-term capital gain or loss. We or our subsidiaries or affiliates generally should be entitled to a federal income tax deduction at the time and for the same amount as the optionee recognizes ordinary income.

●

Incentive Stock Options. A participant will generally not recognize taxable income upon grant or exercise of an ISO. However, the excess of the fair market value of the shares of our common stock received upon exercise over the option exercise price is an item of tax preference income potentially subject to the alternative minimum tax. If stock acquired upon exercise of an ISO is held for a minimum of two years from the date of grant and one year from the date of exercise and otherwise satisfies the ISO requirements, the gain or loss (in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value on the date of disposition and the exercise price) upon disposition of the stock will be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss, and we will not be entitled to any deduction. If the holding period requirements are not met, the ISO will be treated as one that does not meet the requirements of the Code for ISOs and the participant will recognize ordinary income at the time of the disposition equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise over the exercise price (or if less, the amount realized in the disposition over the exercise price), with any remaining gain or loss being treated as capital gain or capital loss. We or our subsidiaries or affiliates generally are not entitled to a federal income tax deduction upon either the exercise of an ISO or upon disposition of the shares acquired pursuant to such exercise, except to the extent that the participant recognizes ordinary income on disposition of the shares.

●

Other Awards. The current federal income tax consequences of other awards authorized under the 2023 Plan generally follow certain basic patterns: SARs are taxed and deductible in substantially the same manner as NSOs; nontransferable restricted stock subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture results in income recognition equal to the excess of the fair market value over the price paid, if any, only at the time the restrictions lapse (unless the recipient elects to accelerate recognition as of the date of grant through a Code Section 83(b) election, in which case ordinary income is recognized on the date of grant in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant over the price paid, if any); restricted stock units, dividend equivalents and other stock or cash based awards are generally subject to tax at the time of payment. We or our subsidiaries or affiliates generally should be entitled to a federal income tax deduction at the time and for the same amount as the participant recognizes ordinary income.

Limitation on the Employer’s Compensation Deduction

If an award is accelerated under the 2023 Plan in connection with a “change in ownership or control” (as this term is used under Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder) of the company, the company may not be permitted to deduct the portion of the compensation attributable to the acceleration (“parachute payments”) if it exceeds certain threshold limits under the Code (and certain related excise taxes may be triggered). Furthermore, Section 162(m) of the Code limits the deduction certain employers may take for otherwise deductible compensation payable to certain executive officers of the employer to the extent the compensation paid to such an officer for the year exceeds $1 million.

Section 409A of the Code

Certain types of awards under the 2023 Plan may constitute, or provide for, a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code. Unless certain requirements set forth in Section 409A of the Code are complied with, holders of such awards may be taxed earlier than would otherwise be the case (e.g., at the time of vesting instead of the time of payment) and may be subject to an additional 20% penalty tax (and, potentially, certain interest, penalties and additional state taxes). To the extent applicable, the 2023 Plan and awards granted under the 2023 Plan are intended to be structured and interpreted in a manner intended to either comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Code and the Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance that may be issued under Section 409A of the Code. To the extent determined necessary or appropriate by the administrator, the 2023 Plan and applicable award agreements may be amended to further comply with Section 409A of the Code or to exempt the applicable awards from Section 409A of the Code.

New Plan Benefits

The benefits or amounts that may be received by or allocated to participants under the 2023 Plan will be determined at the discretion of the administrator and are not currently determinable. The value of future awards granted under the 2023 Plan will depend on a number of factors, including the fair market value of the common stock on future dates, the exercise decisions made by the participants and the extent to which any applicable performance goals necessary for vesting or payment are achieved.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Incentive Award Plan Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the extraordinary general meeting. An abstention will be counted towards the quorum requirement but will not count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting. A broker non-vote will not be counted towards the quorum requirement, as we believe all proposals presented to the shareholders will be considered non-discretionary, or count as a vote cast at the extraordinary general meeting

The Incentive Award Plan Proposal is conditioned on the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals. Therefore, if any of the Condition Precedent Proposals is not approved, the Incentive Award Plan Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of ordinary shares.

Resolution

The full text of the resolution to be passed is as follows:

“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that the Company’s adoption of The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation 2023 Incentive Award Plan and any form award agreements thereunder, be approved, ratified and confirmed in all respects.”

PROPOSAL NO. 12 — ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL

The Adjournment Proposal allows the G4G Board to submit a proposal to approve, by ordinary resolution, the adjournment of the extraordinary general meeting to a later date or dates, for reasons including but not limited to, permitting further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event, based on the tabulated votes, there are not sufficient votes at the time of the extraordinary general meeting to approve the Condition Precedent Proposals. The purpose of the Adjournment Proposal is to permit further solicitation of proxies and votes and to provide additional time for the Sponsor and New ZeroNox and their respective stockholders to make purchases of ordinary shares or other arrangements that would increase the likelihood of obtaining a favorable vote on the proposals to be put to the extraordinary general meeting.

Consequences if the Adjournment Proposal is Not Approved

If the Adjournment Proposal is presented to the extraordinary general meeting and is not approved by the shareholders, the G4G Board may not be able to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting to a later date in the event that, based on the tabulated votes, there are not sufficient votes at the time of the extraordinary general meeting to approve the Condition Precedent Proposals.

U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a summary discussion of U.S. federal income tax considerations (i) of the Domestication to holders of G4G Class A ordinary shares, G4G warrants, and G4G rights (collectively, the “G4G securities”), (ii) of the exercise of redemption rights by holders of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares, (iii) of the Merger to U.S. Holders of ZeroNox common stock (the “ZeroNox securities”), and (iv) of the ownership and disposition of New ZeroNox common stock and New ZeroNox warrants (collectively, the “New ZeroNox securities”) received in the Business Combination to U.S. and Non-U.S. Holders.

This section applies only to holders that hold G4G securities or ZeroNox securities and, after the completion of the Business Combination, New ZeroNox securities, as “capital assets” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to holders in light of their particular circumstances or status including:

●

financial institutions or financial services entities;

●

broker-dealers;

●

taxpayers that are subject to the mark-to-market accounting rules;

●

tax-exempt entities;

●

governments or agencies or instrumentalities thereof;

●

insurance companies;

●

regulated investment companies or real estate investment trusts;

●

expatriates or former long-term residents of the United States;

●

persons that actually or constructively own five percent or more of our voting shares or five percent or more of the total value of all classes of our shares, except as specifically discussed under the caption heading “— Effects of Section 367 to U.S. Holders”;

●

persons that acquired our securities pursuant to an exercise of employee share options, in connection with employee share incentive plans or otherwise as compensation;

●

persons that hold our securities as part of a straddle, constructive sale, hedging, conversion or other integrated or similar transaction;

●

persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

●

controlled foreign corporations; or

●

passive foreign investment companies.

This discussion is based on the Code, proposed, temporary and final Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code, and judicial and administrative interpretations thereof, all as of the date hereof. All of the foregoing is subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the tax considerations described herein. This discussion does not address U.S. federal taxes other than those pertaining to U.S. federal income taxation (such as estate or gift taxes, the alternative minimum tax or the Medicare tax on investment income), nor does it address any aspects of U.S. state or local or Non-U.S. taxation.

We have not and do not intend to seek any rulings from the IRS regarding the Business Combination or any other related matters. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not take positions inconsistent with the considerations discussed below or that any such positions would not be sustained by a court.

175

Table of Contents

As used in this proxy statement/prospectus, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of G4G securities or ZeroNox securities, and, after the Business Combination, New ZeroNox securities received in the Business Combination, that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

●

an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

●

a corporation (or other entity that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is created or organized (or treated as created or organized) in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

●

an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

●

a trust if (i) a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (ii) it has a valid election in place to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

A “Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of G4G securities or ZeroNox securities, and, after the Business Combination, New ZeroNox securities received in the Business Combination, that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, an individual, corporation, estate or trust that is not a U.S. Holder.

This discussion does not consider the tax treatment of partnerships or other pass-through entities or persons who hold our securities through such entities. If a partnership (or any entity or arrangement so characterized for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds G4G securities or ZeroNox securities, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of such partnership and a person treated as a partner of such partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A holder that is a partnership and the partners in such partnership should consult their own tax advisors with regard to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the transactions described herein.

THIS SUMMARY DOES NOT PURPORT TO BE A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OR DESCRIPTION OF ALL POTENTIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DOMESTICATION, MERGER, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF NEW ZERONOX SECURITIES AND THE EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS. IN ADDITION, THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX TREATMENT OF THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF G4G SECURITIES, ZERONOX SECURITIES OR NEW ZERONOX SECURITIES MAY BE AFFECTED BY MATTERS NOT DISCUSSED HEREIN AND DEPENDS IN SOME INSTANCES ON DETERMINATIONS OF FACT AND INTERPRETATIONS OF COMPLEX PROVISIONS OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAW FOR WHICH NO CLEAR PRECEDENT OR AUTHORITY MAY BE AVAILABLE. HOLDERS OF G4G SECURITIES OR ZERONOX SECURITIES SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AND OF THE OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF NEW ZERONOX SECURITIES AFTER THE BUSINESS COMBINATION, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

U.S. Holders

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Domestication to U.S. Holders of G4G Securities

Any G4G Class A Ordinary Shares that are redeemed pursuant to the redemption rights described herein will be canceled prior to the Domestication, and will not be exchanged for New ZeroNox common stock pursuant to the Business Combination. Accordingly, such an exercise of redemption rights is expected to be treated as a redemption of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares that may be subject to the PFIC rules, as further discussed below.

Subject to such PFIC rules, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares that exercises its redemption rights to receive cash from the trust account in exchange for all or a portion of its G4G Class A Ordinary Shares will depend on whether the redemption qualifies as a sale of such shares redeemed under Section 302 of the Code or is treated as a distribution under Section 301 of the Code, as well as on whether such holder has made a timely QEF Election or mark-to-market election (each as discussed below).

The redemption of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares will generally qualify as a sale of such shares redeemed if such redemption (i) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the redeeming U.S. Holder, (ii) results in a “complete termination” of such U.S. Holder’s

176

Table of Contents

interest in us or (iii) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to such U.S. Holder. These tests are explained more fully below.

For purposes of such tests, a U.S. Holder takes into account not only G4G Class A Ordinary Shares actually owned by such U.S. Holder, but also G4G Class A Ordinary Shares that are constructively owned by such U.S. Holder. A redeeming U.S. Holder may constructively own, in addition to G4G Class A Ordinary Shares owned directly, G4G Class A Ordinary Shares owned by certain related individuals and entities in which such U.S. Holder has an interest or that have an interest in such U.S. Holder, as well as any G4G Class A Ordinary Shares such U.S. Holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option, which would generally include G4G Class A Ordinary Shares which could be acquired pursuant to the exercise of the warrants or rights.

The redemption of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares will generally be “substantially disproportionate” with respect to a redeeming U.S. Holder if the percentage of the respective entity’s outstanding voting shares that such U.S. Holder actually or constructively owns immediately after the redemption is less than 80 percent of the percentage of the respective entity’s outstanding voting shares that such U.S. Holder actually or constructively owned immediately before the redemption. Prior to the Business Combination, the G4G Class A Ordinary Shares may not be treated as voting shares for this purpose and, consequently, this substantially disproportionate test may not be applicable. There will be a complete termination of such U.S. Holder’s interest if either (i) all of the G4G Class A Ordinary Shares actually or constructively owned by such U.S. Holder are redeemed or (ii) all of the G4G Class A Ordinary Shares actually owned by such U.S. Holder are redeemed and such U.S. Holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of any G4G securities owned by certain family members and such U.S. Holder does not constructively own any other shares of the respective entity. The redemption of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend if it results in a “meaningful reduction” of such U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in the respective entity. Whether the redemption will result in a meaningful reduction in such U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest will depend on the particular facts and circumstances applicable to it. The IRS has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a small minority shareholder in a publicly held corporation who exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction.”

Redemption Treated as a Sale of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares Under Section 302 of the Code

If any of the tests above is satisfied, the redemption will generally be treated as sale of a U.S. Holder’s G4G Class A Ordinary Shares. Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, a U.S. Holder treated as selling G4G Class A Ordinary Shares will generally recognize capital gain or loss. The amount of gain or loss recognized will generally be equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received in such sale and (ii) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the shares disposed of.

Under tax law currently in effect, long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders are generally subject to U.S. federal income tax at a reduced rate of tax. Capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the relevant securities exceeds one year. However, it is unclear whether the redemption rights with respect to the G4G Class A Ordinary Shares may prevent the holding period for such shares from commencing prior to the termination of such rights. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Redemption Treated as a Distribution Under Section 301 of the Code

If none of the above tests is satisfied, a redemption will be treated as a distribution under Section 301 of the Code with respect to G4G Class A Ordinary Shares. Such distribution will generally be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent the distribution is paid out of G4G’s current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Distributions in excess of any such earnings and profits will generally be applied against and reduce the U.S. Holder’s basis in its other G4G securities (but not below zero) and, to the extent in excess of such basis, will be treated as capital gain from the sale or exchange of such redeemed shares. After the application of those rules, any remaining tax basis a U.S. Holder has in the redeemed G4G Class A Ordinary Shares will be added to the adjusted tax basis in such holder’s remaining G4G securities. If there are no remaining G4G securities, a U.S. Holder should consult its tax advisors as to the allocation of any remaining basis.

Any dividend will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from U.S. corporations. If G4G is, or was in its preceding taxable year, a PFIC (as discussed below under “PFIC Considerations”), dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals) generally would not constitute “qualified dividend income,” which is taxed at the lower applicable capital gains rate.

177

Table of Contents

ALL U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF A REDEMPTION OF ALL OR A PORTION OF THEIR G4G CLASS A ORDINARY SHARES PURSUANT TO AN EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE APPLICATION OF THE PFIC RULES.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders of G4G Securities of Exercising Redemption Rights

Any G4G Class A Ordinary Shares that are redeemed pursuant to the redemption rights described herein will be canceled prior to the Domestication, and will not be exchanged for New ZeroNox common stock pursuant to the Domestication. Accordingly, shareholders that exercise their redemption rights with respect to their G4G securities are not expected to be subject to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication described below with respect to such redeemed shares.

The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication will depend primarily upon whether the domestication qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code.

Under Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code, a reorganization is a “mere change in identity, form, or place of organization of one corporation, however effected” (an “F Reorganization”). Pursuant to the Domestication, G4G will change its jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to Delaware.

It is intended that the Domestication qualify as an F Reorganization. Assuming the Domestication qualifies as an F Reorganization, U.S. Holders of G4G securities will generally not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes on the Domestication, except as provided below under the caption headings “— Effects of Section 367 of the Code to U.S. Holders” and “— PFIC Considerations,” and the Domestication will generally be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as if G4G (i) transferred all of its assets and liabilities to New ZeroNox in exchange for all of the outstanding New ZeroNox common stock, New ZeroNox warrants, and New ZeroNox rights; and (ii) then distributed the New ZeroNox common stock, New ZeroNox warrants, and New ZeroNox rights to the holders of securities of G4G in liquidation of G4G. The taxable year of G4G will be deemed to end on the date of the Domestication. The remaining discussion under this section assumes that the Domestication qualifies as an F Reorganization.

All holders considering exercising redemption rights with respect to their G4G Class A Ordinary Shares should consult with their tax advisors with respect to the potential tax consequences to them of the Domestication and exercise of redemption rights.

PFIC Considerations

Following the Domestication, New ZeroNox will not be a foreign corporation subject to the PFIC rules. However, dispositions of G4G securities pursuant to either an exercise of redemption rights or the Domestication may be subject to the PFIC rules, as described below.

Definition of a PFIC

A foreign (i.e., non-U.S.) corporation will be classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes if either (i) at least 75% of its gross income in a taxable year, including its pro rata share of the gross income of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, is passive income or (ii) at least 50% of its assets in a taxable year (generally determined based on fair market value and averaged quarterly over the year) are held for the production of, or produce, passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets. For purposes of these rules, interest income earned by G4G would be considered to be passive income and cash held by G4G would be considered to be a passive asset.

PFIC Status of G4G

Based upon the composition of its income and assets, and upon a review of its financial statements, G4G believes that it likely was a PFIC for its most recent taxable year ended on December 31, 2022 and will likely be considered a PFIC for its current taxable year which ends as a result of the Domestication.

Effects of the PFIC Rules

As discussed above, G4G believes that it is likely classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If G4G is determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in a U.S. Holder’s holding period in its G4G securities, then such holder will generally be subject to special rules (the “Default PFIC Regime”) unless, with respect to its G4G Class A Ordinary Shares,

178

Table of Contents

the U.S. Holder made (i) a timely and effective QEF election in respect of G4G’s first taxable year as a PFIC in which the U.S. Holder held G4G securities, (ii) a QEF election along with a purging election, or (iii) a “mark- to-market” election, each as described below under “— QEF Election and Mark-to-Market Election” The Default PFIC Regime applies with respect to:

●

any gain recognized by the U.S. Holder on the sale or other disposition (including deemed dispositions) of its G4G securities; and

●

any “excess distribution” made to the U.S. Holder (generally, any distributions to such U.S. Holder during a taxable year of the U.S. Holder that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such U.S. Holder in respect of its ordinary shares during the three preceding taxable years of such U.S. Holder or, if shorter, such U.S. Holder’s holding period for such ordinary shares).

A disposition for these purposes generally includes any redemptions pursuant to an exercise of redemption rights described in this proxy. It is also possible that, pursuant to certain proposed Treasury Regulations described below, the exchange of G4G securities for New ZeroNox securities in the Domestication may be a taxable disposition subject to the PFIC rules.

Section 1291(f) of the Code requires that, to the extent provided in Treasury Regulations, a United States person who disposes of stock of a PFIC (including for this purpose exchanging warrants or rights for newly issued New ZeroNox Warrants or rights in the Domestication) recognizes gain notwithstanding any other provision of the Code. No final Treasury Regulations are currently in effect under Section 1291(f) of the Code. However, proposed Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code have been promulgated with a retroactive effective date. If finalized in their current form, those proposed Treasury Regulations would generally treat certain nonrecognition exchanges such as the exchange of G4G securities for New ZeroNox securities in the Domestication as taxable dispositions that, in the absence of certain elections described below, are subject to the Default PFIC Regime.

Under the Default PFIC Regime:

●

the U.S. Holder’s gain will be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for such U.S. Holder’s G4G securities;

●

the amount of gain allocated to the U.S. Holder’s taxable year in which the U.S. Holder recognized the gain, or to the period in the U.S. Holder’s holding period before the first day of the first taxable year in which G4G was a PFIC, will be taxed as ordinary income;

●

the amount of gain allocated to other taxable years (or portions thereof) of the U.S. Holder and included in such U.S. Holder’s holding period would be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and applicable to the U.S. Holder; and

●

an additional tax equal to the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the U.S. Holder in respect of the tax attributable to each such other taxable year of such U.S. Holder.

Any “all earnings and profits amount” included in income by a U.S. Holder as a result of the Domestication (discussed under the heading “— Effects of Section 367 of the Code to U.S. Holders” above) would generally be treated as gain subject to these rules.

It is difficult to predict whether, in what form and with what effective date, final Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code may be adopted or how any such Treasury Regulations would apply. Therefore, U.S. Holders of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares that have not made a timely QEF Election (or a QEF Election along with a purging election) or a mark-to-market election (each as defined below) may, pursuant to the proposed Treasury Regulations, be subject to taxation under the PFIC rules on the Domestication with respect to their G4G securities under the PFIC rules in the manner set forth above. An Electing Shareholder (as defined below) would generally not be subject to the adverse PFIC rules discussed above with respect to their G4G Class A Ordinary Shares but rather would include annually in gross income its pro rata share of the ordinary earnings and net capital gain of G4G, whether or not such amounts are actually distributed.

The application of the PFIC rules to warrants and rights is unclear. A proposed Treasury Regulation issued under the PFIC rules generally treats an “option” (which would include a warrant, and possibly a right) to acquire the stock of a PFIC as stock of the PFIC, while a final Treasury Regulation issued under the PFIC rules provides that the QEF Election does not apply to options and no mark-to-market election (as defined below) is currently available with respect to options. Therefore, it is possible that the proposed Treasury Regulations if finalized in their current form would apply to cause gain recognition on the exchange of G4G warrants and rights for New ZeroNox warrants and rights pursuant to the Domestication.

179

Table of Contents

Any gain recognized by a U.S. Holder of G4G securities as a result of the Domestication pursuant to PFIC rules would be taxable income to such U.S. Holder, taxed under the PFIC rules in the manner set forth above, with no corresponding receipt of cash.

ALL U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE EFFECTS OF THE PFIC RULES ON AN EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS AND THE DOMESTICATION, INCLUDING THE IMPACT OF ANY PROPOSED OR FINAL TREASURY REGULATIONS.

QEF Election and Mark-to-Market Election

The impact of the PFIC rules on a U.S. Holder of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares (but not public warrants) will depend on whether the U.S. Holder has made a timely and effective election to treat G4G as a “qualified electing fund” under Section 1295 of the Code for the taxable year that is the first year in the U.S. Holder’s holding period of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares during which G4G qualified as a PFIC (a “QEF Election”) or, if in a later taxable year, the U.S. Holder made a QEF Election along with a purging election. A purging election generally creates a deemed sale of the U.S. Holder’s G4G Class A Ordinary Shares at their then fair market value and requires the U.S. Holder to recognize gain pursuant to the purging election subject to the special PFIC tax and interest charge rules described above. As a result of any such purging election, the U.S. Holder would have additional basis (to the extent of any gain recognized in the deemed sale) and, solely for purposes of the PFIC rules, a new holding period in its G4G Class A Ordinary Shares. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors as to the application of the rules governing purging elections to their particular circumstances.

A U.S. Holder’s ability to make a QEF Election (or a QEF Election along with a purging election) with respect to G4G is contingent upon, among other things, the provision by G4G of a “PFIC Annual Information Statement” to such U.S. Holder. If G4G determines that it is a PFIC for any taxable year, it will endeavor to provide PFIC Annual Information Statements to U.S. Holders of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares, upon request. There is no assurance, however, that G4G will timely provide such information. A U.S. Holder that made a QEF Election (or a QEF Election along with a purging election) may be referred to as an “Electing Shareholder” and a U.S. Holder that did not make a QEF Election may be referred to as a “Non-Electing Shareholder.” As discussed further above, a U.S. Holder is not able to make a QEF Election with respect to warrants or rights.

The impact of the PFIC rules on a U.S. Holder of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares may also depend on whether the U.S. Holder has made an election under Section 1296 of the Code. U.S. Holders who hold (actually or constructively) stock of a foreign corporation that is classified as a PFIC may annually elect to mark such stock to its market value if such stock is “marketable stock,” generally, stock that is regularly traded on a national securities exchange that is registered with the SEC, including Nasdaq, or on a foreign exchange or market that the IRS determines has rules sufficient to ensure that the market price represents a legitimate and sound fair market value (a “mark-to-market election”). No assurance can be given that the G4G Class A Ordinary Shares are considered to be marketable stock for purposes of the mark-to-market election or whether the other requirements of this election are satisfied. If such an election is available and has been made, such U.S. Holders will generally not be subject to the Default PFIC Regime. However, if the mark-to-market election is made by a Non-Electing Shareholder after the beginning of its holding period for the PFIC stock, then the Default PFIC Regime will apply to certain dispositions of, distributions on and other amounts taxable with respect to G4G securities. A mark-to-market election is not available with respect to warrants or rights.

THE RULES DEALING WITH PFICS ARE VERY COMPLEX AND ARE IMPACTED BY VARIOUS FACTORS IN ADDITION TO THOSE DESCRIBED ABOVE. ALL U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PFIC RULES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WHETHER A QEF ELECTION (OR A QEF ELECTION ALONG WITH A PURGING ELECTION), A MARK-TO-MARKET ELECTION OR ANY OTHER ELECTION IS AVAILABLE AND THE CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF ANY SUCH ELECTION, AND THE IMPACT OF ANY PROPOSED OR FINAL PFIC TREASURY REGULATIONS.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger to U.S. Holders of ZeroNox Securities

ZeroNox and G4G intend that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Merger qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Subject to the qualifications and limitations set forth herein, U.S. Holders of ZeroNox securities would generally not recognize any gain or loss as a result of the Merger. Pursuant to the Merger, U.S. Holders of ZeroNox common stock will receive shares of New ZeroNox common stock in exchange for their shares of ZeroNox common stock. Each U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the shares of New ZeroNox common stock received in the Merger will be the same as his, her or its tax basis in the shares of ZeroNox common stock surrendered in the Merger in exchange therefor. The holding period of the shares of New ZeroNox common stock received in the Merger by the U.S. Holder will include the holding period of the shares of ZeroNox common stock surrendered in the Merger in exchange therefor.

In addition, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, U.S. Holders of ZeroNox common stock may receive contingent consideration in the form of additional shares of New ZeroNox common stock under certain circumstances. Any additional shares of New ZeroNox common stock received by U.S. Holders pursuant to the Merger Agreement are expected to be viewed as contingent consideration in the Merger and should generally be received on a tax-free basis in the manner described above. However, the treatment of contingent consideration received in a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, including a U.S. Holder’s tax basis in any shares of New ZeroNox common stock received as contingent consideration, is unclear under current law, and there can be no assurance that the IRS will not take a contrary position to that described herein or that a court will not agree with a contrary position of the IRS in the event of litigation. Additionally, under Code Section 483, a portion of the value of any shares of New ZeroNox common stock received by a U.S. Holder as contingent consideration will be treated as interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes that must be accounted for in accordance with the holder’s regular method of accounting. The amount of imputed interest is equal to the excess of (1) the fair market value of the shares of New ZeroNox common stock, if any, received as contingent consideration over (2) the present value of such amount as of the effective time, discounted at the applicable federal rate in effect at the effective time. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in any shares of New ZeroNox common stock received as contingent consideration will be increased by the amount treated as imputed interest.

All U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors as to the tax consequences to them of the Merger, including the potential receipt of contingent consideration, under such holder’s particular circumstances.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Ownership and Disposition of New ZeroNox Securities

The following discussion is a summary of U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of New ZeroNox securities to U.S. Holders who receive such New ZeroNox securities pursuant to the Business Combination.

Distributions on New ZeroNox Common Stock

The gross amount of any distribution on New ZeroNox common stock that is made out of New ZeroNox’s current and accumulated profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) will generally be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary dividend income on the date such distribution is actually or constructively received by such U.S. Holder. Any such dividends paid to corporate U.S. Holders generally will qualify for the dividends received deduction if the requisite holding period is satisfied. Dividends paid to a non-corporate U.S. Holder generally will constitute “qualified dividends” that will be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate accorded to long-term capital gains.

Non-corporate U.S. Holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement or that elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Section 163(d)(4) of the Code (dealing with the deduction for investment interest expense) will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation applicable to qualified dividends. In addition, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. This disallowance applies even if the minimum holding period has been met.

To the extent that the amount of any distribution made by New ZeroNox on the New ZeroNox common stock exceeds New ZeroNox’s current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), the distribution will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction (but not below zero) in the adjusted basis of the U.S. Holder’s New ZeroNox common stock, and to the extent the amount of the distribution exceeds the U.S. Holder’s tax basis, the excess will be taxed as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange as described below under “— Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of New ZeroNox Securities.”

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of New ZeroNox Securities

A U.S. Holder will generally recognize gain or loss on any sale, exchange, redemption, or other taxable disposition of New ZeroNox common stock and New ZeroNox warrants in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the disposition and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such New ZeroNox common stock or New ZeroNox warrants. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on a taxable disposition of New ZeroNox common stock or New ZeroNox warrants will generally be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder’s holding period in the New ZeroNox common stock or New ZeroNox warrants exceeds one year at the time of the disposition. Preferential tax rates may apply to long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals). The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on the sale or exchange of New ZeroNox common stock or New ZeroNox warrants will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

Exercise or Lapse of a New ZeroNox Warrant

Except as discussed below with respect to the cashless exercise of a New ZeroNox warrant, a U.S. Holder generally will not recognize gain or loss upon the acquisition of a share of New ZeroNox common stock on the exercise of a New ZeroNox warrant for cash. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in a share of New ZeroNox common stock received upon exercise of the New ZeroNox warrant generally will be an amount equal to the sum of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the New ZeroNox warrant exchanged therefor and the exercise price. The U.S. Holder’s holding period for a share of New ZeroNox common stock received upon exercise of the New ZeroNox warrant will begin on the date following the date of exercise (or possibly the date of exercise) of the New ZeroNox warrants and will not include the period during which the U.S. Holder held the New ZeroNox warrants. If a New ZeroNox warrant is allowed to lapse unexercised, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize a capital loss equal to such holder’s tax basis in the New ZeroNox warrant.

The tax consequences of a cashless exercise of a warrant are not clear under current tax law. A cashless exercise may be tax-free, either because the exercise is not a gain realization event or because the exercise is treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In either tax-free situation, a U.S. Holder’s basis in the New ZeroNox common stock received would equal the holder’s basis in the New ZeroNox warrant exercised therefor. If the cashless exercise were treated as not being a gain realization event, a U.S. Holder’s holding period in the New ZeroNox common stock would be treated as commencing on the date following the date of exercise (or possibly the date of exercise) of the New ZeroNox warrant. If the cashless exercise were treated as a recapitalization, the holding period of the New ZeroNox common stock would include the holding period of the New ZeroNox warrant exercised therefor.

It is also possible that a cashless exercise could be treated in part as a taxable exchange in which gain or loss would be recognized. In such event, a U.S. Holder would recognize gain or loss with respect to the portion of the exercised New ZeroNox warrants treated as surrendered to pay the exercise price of the New ZeroNox warrants (the “surrendered warrants”). The U.S. Holder would recognize capital gain or loss with respect to the surrendered warrants in an amount generally equal to the difference between (i) the fair market value of the New ZeroNox common stock that would have been received with respect to the surrendered warrants in a regular exercise of the New ZeroNox warrants and (ii) the sum of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the surrendered warrants and the aggregate cash exercise price of such warrants (if they had been exercised in a regular exercise). In this case, a U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the New ZeroNox common stock received would equal the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the New ZeroNox warrants exercised plus (or minus) the gain (or loss) recognized with respect to the surrendered warrants. A U.S. Holder’s holding period for the New ZeroNox common stock would commence on the date following the date of exercise (or possibly the date of exercise) of the New ZeroNox warrant.

Due to the absence of authority on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a cashless exercise, there can be no assurance which, if any, of the alternative tax consequences and holding periods described above would be adopted by the IRS or a court of law. Accordingly, U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of a cashless exercise of New ZeroNox warrants.

Non-U.S. Holders

Effects to Non-U.S. Holders of Exercising Redemption Rights

The characterization for U.S. federal income tax purposes of a non-U.S. Holder’s exercise of redemption rights with respect to its G4G Class A Ordinary Shares will generally be as described above under “U.S. Holders — Effects to U.S. Holders of Exercising Redemption Rights.”

A non-U.S. Holder will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to any redemption treated as either a sale of G4G Class A Ordinary Shares, or a distribution received with respect to such shares, unless either of the first two bullet points described below under “— Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of New ZeroNox Common Stock and Warrants” applies.

Effects of the Domestication to Non-U.S. Holders

G4G does not expect the Domestication to result in any U.S. federal income tax consequences to non-U.S. Holders of G4G securities.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Ownership and Disposition of New ZeroNox Securities

Distributions on New ZeroNox Common Stock

Distributions of cash or property (including a constructive distribution) to a Non-U.S. Holder in respect of New ZeroNox common stock will generally constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from New ZeroNox’s current or

182

Table of Contents

accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. If a distribution exceeds New ZeroNox’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, the excess will generally be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of the Non-U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the New ZeroNox common stock. Any remaining excess will be treated as capital gain and will be treated as described below under “— Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of New ZeroNox Securities.”

Dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder of New ZeroNox common stock generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a 30% rate, unless such Non-U.S. Holder is eligible for a reduced rate of withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty and provides proper certification of its eligibility for such reduced rate as described below. However, dividends that are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business by the Non-U.S. Holder within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment or fixed base of the Non-U.S. Holder) are not subject to such withholding tax, provided certain certification and disclosure requirements are satisfied (generally by providing an IRS FormW-8ECI). Instead, such dividends are subject to United States federal income tax on a net income basis in the same manner as if the Non-U.S. Holder were a United States person as defined under the Code. Any such effectively connected dividends received by a foreign corporation may be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

A Non-U.S. Holder of New ZeroNox common stock who wishes to claim the benefit of an applicable treaty rate and avoid backup withholding, as discussed below, for dividends will be required (a) to complete the applicable IRS FormW-8 and certify under penalty of perjury that such holder is not a United States person as defined under the Code and is eligible for treaty benefits or (b) if the shares of New ZeroNox common stock are held through certain foreign intermediaries, to satisfy the relevant certification requirements of applicable United States Treasury regulations. Special certification and other requirements apply to certain Non-U.S. Holders that are pass-through entities rather than corporations or individuals.

A Non-U.S. Holder of New ZeroNox common stock eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. withholding tax pursuant to an income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding their entitlement to the benefits under any applicable income tax treaty.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of New ZeroNox Securities

Subject to the discussion of backup withholding and FATCA below, any gain realized by a Non-U.S. Holder on the taxable disposition of New ZeroNox securities generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax unless:

●

the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business of the Non-U.S. Holder in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base of the Non-U.S. Holder);

●

the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for a period or periods aggregating 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition, and certain other conditions are met; or

●

New ZeroNox is or has been a “United States real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for such securities disposed of, and either (A) shares of New ZeroNox common stock are not considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market or (B) such Non-U.S. Holder has owned or is deemed to have owned, at any time during the shorter of the five-year period preceding such disposition and such Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period more than 5% of the outstanding shares of New ZeroNox common stock. There can be no assurance that shares of New ZeroNox common stock will be treated as regularly traded on an established securities market for this purpose.

A non-corporate Non-U.S. Holder described in the first bullet point immediately above will be subject to tax on the net gain derived from the sale under regular graduated U.S. federal income tax rates. An individual Non-U.S. Holder described in the second bullet point immediately above will be subject to a flat 30% tax on the gain derived from the sale, which may be offset by certain United States source capital losses, even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States, provided that the individual has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses. If a Non-U.S. Holder that is a foreign corporation falls under the first bullet point immediately above, it will be subject to tax on its net gain in the same manner as if it were a United States person as defined under the Code and, in addition, may be subject to the branch profits tax equal to 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty) of its effectively connected earnings and profits, subject to adjustments.

183

Table of Contents

If the last bullet point immediately above applies to a Non-U.S. Holder, gain recognized by such Non-U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange or other disposition of New ZeroNox securities generally will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates. In addition, a buyer of such New ZeroNox securities from a Non-U.S. Holder may be required to withhold U.S. income tax at a rate of 15% of the amount realized upon such disposition. New ZeroNox will generally be classified as a “U.S. real property holding corporation” if the fair market value of its “United States real property interests” equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests and its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. New ZeroNox does not expect to be classified as a “U.S. real property holding corporation” following the Business Combination. However, such determination is factual in nature and subject to change, and no assurance can be provided as to whether New ZeroNox is or will be a U.S. real property holding corporation with respect to a Non-U.S. Holder following the Business Combination or at any future time.

Exercise or Lapse of a New ZeroNox Warrant

The U.S. federal income tax treatment of a Non-U.S. Holder’s exercise of a New ZeroNox warrant, or the lapse of a New ZeroNox warrant held by a Non-U.S. Holder, generally will correspond to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the exercise or lapse of a warrant by a U.S. holder, as described under “— U.S. Holders — Exercise or Lapse of a New ZeroNox warrant,” above, although to the extent a cashless exercise results in a taxable exchange, the consequences would be similar to those described under “— Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of New ZeroNox Securities,” above for a Non-U.S. Holder’s gain on the sale or other disposition of New ZeroNox securities.

Information Reporting Requirements and Backup Withholding

Information returns will be filed with the IRS in connection with payments of dividends on and the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of New ZeroNox securities. A non-U.S. Holder may have to comply with certification procedures to establish that it is not a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise establish an exemption in order to avoid information reporting and backup withholding requirements or to claim a reduced rate of withholding under an applicable income tax treaty. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a non-U.S. Holder will generally be allowed as a credit against such non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such non-U.S. Holder to a refund, provided that the required information is furnished by such non-U.S. Holder to the IRS in a timely manner.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act

Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance promulgated thereunder (commonly referred as the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act” or “FATCA”) generally impose withholding at a rate of 30% in certain circumstances on dividends in respect of, and (subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, securities (including New ZeroNox securities) which are held by or through certain foreign financial institutions (including investment funds), unless any such institution (i) enters into, and complies with, an agreement with the IRS to report, on an annual basis, information with respect to interests in, and accounts maintained by, the institution that are owned by certain U.S. persons and by certain non-U.S. entities that are wholly or partially owned by U.S. persons and to withhold on certain payments, or (ii) if required under an intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country, reports such information to its local tax authority, which will exchange such information with the U.S. authorities. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements. Accordingly, the entity through which New ZeroNox securities are held will affect the determination of whether such withholding is required. Similarly, dividends in respect of, and (subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, New ZeroNox securities held by an investor that is a non-financial non-U.S. entity that does not qualify under certain exceptions will generally be subject to withholding at a rate of 30%, unless such entity either (i) certifies to the applicable withholding agent that such entity does not have any “substantial United States owners” or (ii) provides certain information regarding the entity’s “substantial United States owners,” which will in turn be provided to the U.S. Department of Treasury.

Under the applicable Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance, withholding under FATCA generally applies to payments of dividends in respect of New ZeroNox common stock. While withholding under FATCA generally would also apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of securities (including New ZeroNox securities), proposed Treasury Regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations are issued. All holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the possible implications of FATCA on their investment in New ZeroNox securities.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

G4G is providing the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the Business Combination and related transactions. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents the combination of the financial information of G4G and ZeroNox adjusted to give effect to the Business Combination and related transactions. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” Defined terms included below have the same meaning as terms defined and included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

The historical financial information of G4G and ZeroNox was derived from the audited financial statements of G4G and ZeroNox, respectively as of December 31, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2022, included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. Such unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited financial statements of G4G and ZeroNox, respectively, and should be read in conjunction with the audited historical financial statements and related notes, each of which is included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. This information should be read together with G4G’s and ZeroNox’s financial statements and related notes, the sections titled “G4G’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “ZeroNox’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and other financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

The Business Combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, G4G is treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. ZeroNox has been determined to be the accounting acquirer because ZeroNox, as a group, will have the largest voting interest in the post-combination company under the 50%, 75%, and maximum redemption scenarios, they have nominated four of the seven members of the board of directors as of the closing of the Business Combination, ZeroNox’s management will continue to manage New ZeroNox, ZeroNox’s name will be the name of the combined company, and ZeroNox’s business will comprise the ongoing operations of New ZeroNox.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 assumes that the Business Combination and related transactions occurred on December 31, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operation for the year ended December 31, 2022 give pro forma effect to the Business Combination and related transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2022. G4G and ZeroNox have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are for informational purposes only. They do not purport to indicate the results that would have been obtained had the Business Combination and related transactions actually been completed on the assumed date or for the periods presented, or which may be realized in the future. The pro forma adjustments are based on the information currently available and the assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

Description of the Business Combination

On March 7, 2023, G4G entered into the Merger Agreement, with Merger Sub and ZeroNox pursuant to which, among other things, following the Domestication of G4G to Delaware as described below, the Merger Sub will merge with and into ZeroNox (the “Merger”), with ZeroNox surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New ZeroNox, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement.

As a condition to the consummation of the Merger, the board of directors of G4G has unanimously approved a change of G4G’s jurisdiction of incorporation by deregistering as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands and continuing and domesticating as a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Domestication” and, together with the Merger, the “Business Combination”). As described in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, shareholders of G4G will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Domestication (the “Domestication Proposal”). In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, G4G will change its name to “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.”

185

Table of Contents

“ZeroNox Options”), outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be canceled in exchange for the right to receive, or the reservation of, an aggregate of 22.5 million shares of New ZeroNox common stock (at a deemed value of $10.00 per share), representing a pre-transaction equity value of ZeroNox of $225 million (such total number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock, the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”). Specifically, each share of ZeroNox common stock as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be canceled and converted into (A) the right to receive a number of shares of New ZeroNox common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Merger Consideration by (y) the number of aggregate fully diluted number of shares of ZeroNox common stock (“Exchange Ratio”), and (B) the right to receive Earnout Shares (as defined below) to the extent due and issuable pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement also provides, among other things, that the ZeroNox shareholders may receive an earnout payment (the “Earnout Shares”) following the closing of the Merger of up to 7,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, in three equal tranches of 2,500,000 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, subject to certain share price achievement triggers as follows:

●

The first tranche of the earnout would be distributed based upon shares of New ZeroNox common stock achieving a VWAP for any 10 Trading Days within a 20-day consecutive trading period of the common stock equal to or greater than $12.50 at any time until December 31, 2025.

●

The second tranche of the earnout would be distributed based upon shares of New ZeroNox common stock achieving a VWAP for any 10 Trading Days within a 20-day consecutive trading period of the common stock equal to or greater than $15.00 at any time until December 31, 2026.

●

The third tranche of the earnout would be distributed based upon shares of New ZeroNox common stock achieving a VWAP for any 10 Trading Days within a 20-day consecutive trading period of the common stock equal to or greater than $20.00 at any time until December 31, 2027.

ZeroNox accounts for the Earnout Shares as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the Earnout Shares specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ZeroNox has preliminarily determined that the Earnout Shares are indexed to New ZeroNox’s stock and is therefore not precluded from equity classification. Such accounting determination will be assessed at each financial statement reporting date to determine whether equity classification remains appropriate. The pro forma value of the earnout consideration was estimated utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model. The significant assumptions utilized in estimating the fair value of earnout consideration include the following: (1) our common stock price of $10.00; (2) risk-free rate of 3.70%; (3) expected transaction date of August 15, 2023, with the earnout period covering 4.38 years; and (4) expected equity volatility of 60.00%. A 20% increase or decrease in the volatility would change the estimated fair value to $70,860,000 and $47,240,000, respectively. Estimates are subject to change as additional information becomes available and additional analyses are performed and such changes could be material once the final valuation is determined at the Effective Time.

The accounting treatment of the Earnout Shares is expected to be recognized at fair value upon the closing of the Business Combination and classified in stockholders’ equity. The preliminary fair value of the Earnout Shares is $59.1 million. Because the Business Combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, the issuance of the Earnout Shares will be treated as a deemed dividend and since New ZeroNox will not have retained earnings on a pro forma basis, the issuance will be recorded within additional-paid-in-capital. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect pro forma adjustments related to the recognition of these shares because there is no net impact on additional paid-in capital on a pro forma combined basis. We expect to finalize our assessment of the accounting treatment prior to the Closing. If the Earnout Shares are determined to be classified as a liability on the balance sheet, then New ZeroNox would recognize subsequent changes in the fair value of such Earnout Shares as a gain or loss at each reporting period during the earnout period, pursuant to the provisions of ASC 815.

Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor and such directors and officers of G4G additionally agreed that the Sponsor will not transfer, assign or sell its G4G ordinary shares, together with all shares of domesticated New ZeroNox common stock issued upon conversion thereof (the “Lock-Up Shares”), (i) in the case of Basic Lock-Up Shares (as defined in the Sponsor Support Agreement), until the 360th day after the Closing Date; (ii) in the case of 790,625 Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares (as defined in the Sponsor Support Agreement), until the VWAP (as defined in the Sponsor Support Agreement) of one share of domesticated New ZeroNox common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share for 10 of any 20 consecutive trading days during the Lock-Up Period (as defined below); and (iii) in the case of the remaining 790,625 Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares, until such time as the VWAP of one share of domesticated New ZeroNox common stock equals or exceeds $15.00 per share for 10 of any 20 consecutive trading days during the Lock-Up Period. Any Lock-Up Shares that have not been released upon the earlier of (x) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date and (y) the consummation of a Change in Control (as defined in the Sponsor Support Agreement) (the “Lock-Up Period”), shall immediately and automatically upon the end of the Lock-Up Period be forfeited and surrendered to G4G without consideration.

ZeroNox accounts for the Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). G4G has preliminarily determined that the earnout consideration for the Sponsor Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares are not indexed to G4G’s own stock and is therefore each accounted for as a liability which will be remeasured to fair value at subsequent reporting dates with the change in fair value recognized as a gain or loss in the statement of operations. The pro forma value of the earnout consideration for the Sponsor Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares was estimated utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model. The significant assumptions utilized in estimating the fair value of earnout consideration include the following: (1) our common stock price of $10.00; (2) risk-free rate of 3.63%; (3) expected transaction date of August 15, 2023, with a maximum lock-up period covering 5.01 years; and (4) expected equity volatility of 60.00%. A 20% increase or decrease in the volatility would change the estimated fair value to $17,064,000 and $11,376,000, respectively. Estimates are subject to change as additional information becomes available and additional analyses are performed and such changes could be material once the final valuation is determined at the Effective Time.

The accounting treatment of the Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares is expected to be recognized at fair value upon the closing of the Business Combination and classified outside of permanent equity as a liability on the balance sheet with subsequent changes in the fair value of such Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares recognized as a gain or loss at each reporting period during the lock-up period, pursuant to the provisions of ASC 815. A change in the assumptions utilized to estimate the fair value of the Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares may have a material effect on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and unaudited pro forma combined income statement for the period presented.

The pro forma adjustments giving effect to the Business Combination and related transactions are summarized below, and are discussed further in the footnotes to these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements:

●

the consummation of the Business Combination and reclassification of cash held in G4G’s trust account to cash and cash equivalents, net of redemptions (see below);

●

the accounting for certain offering costs and transaction costs incurred by both G4G and ZeroNox;

●

the reclassification of common stock subject to possible redemption to permanent equity;

●

the recapitalization of outstanding equity as a result of the reverse recapitalization and the issuance of common stock to ZeroNox Equity Holders as consideration for the reverse recapitalization;

●

the reclassification of G4G’s historical accumulated deficit into additional paid-in capital as part of the reverse recapitalization

●

the exchange of certain shares of common stock of G4G into shares of common stock of ZeroNox;

●

The forfeiture of certain shares of common stock owned by the Sponsor as a result of the Sponsor Support Agreement executed in connection with the Business Combination.

●

The issuance of certain shares of common stock of G4G pursuant to outstanding rights.

●

The adjustment for certain shares of common stock of G4G owned by the Sponsor that were placed in escrow and subject to forfeiture based on certain share price achievement triggers being met.

Table of Contents

●

The recognition of fair value for certain shares of common stock of G4G owned by the Sponsor that were placed in escrow and subject to forfeiture based on certain share price achievement triggers being met, which was determined to be liability classified.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the assumptions below with respect to the potential redemption into cash of shares of G4G ordinary shares:

●

Assuming Maximum Redemptions and that Proposal No. 2 is not approved: This scenario assumes that 21,910,100 G4G public shares are redeemed for their pro rata share of the cash in the trust account, which is the maximum amount that can be redeemed. This scenario gives effect to G4G share redemptions for aggregate redemption payments of approximately $222.5 million at a redemption price of approximately $10.15 per share based on the investments held in the trust account as of December 31, 2022.

The following summarizes the pro forma ownership of common stock of G4G following the Business Combination under both the no redemption and maximum redemption scenarios:


	Assuming No			Assuming Maximum
	Redemptions			Redemptions
	(Shares)	%		(Shares)	%
ZeroNox Shareholders^(1)(2)(5)	22,500,000	41.6	%	22,500,000	72.1	%
G4G Shareholders⁽³⁾	25,300,000	46.7	%	3,389,900	10.8	%
G4G Sponsor⁽⁴⁾	6,334,375	11.7	%	5,334,375	17.1	%
Pro forma common stock	54,134,375	100.0	%	31,224,275	100.0	%

(1) Excludes 7,500,000 Earnout Shares of common stock as the earnout contingencies have not yet been met.

(2) Excludes 1,598,850 shares of common stock underlying ZeroNox outstanding options.

(3) Excludes 12,650,000 shares of common stock underlying the public warrants.

(4) Excludes 400,000 shares of common stock underlying the private placement warrants

(5) Excludes 549,000 shares of common stock underlying the convertible notes of ZeroNox.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, G4G will be treated as the “accounting acquiree” and ZeroNox as the “accounting acquirer” for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as the equivalent of ZeroNox issuing shares for the net assets of G4G, followed by a recapitalization. The net assets of ZeroNox will be stated at historical cost. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of ZeroNox.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 gives effect to the Business Combination and related transactions as if they occurred on December 31, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 give effect to the Business Combination and related transactions as if they occurred on January 1, 2022. These periods are presented on the basis that ZeroNox is the acquirer for accounting purposes.

The pro forma adjustments reflecting the consummation of the Business Combination and the related transaction are based on certain currently available information and certain assumptions and methodologies that G4G management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised as additional information becomes available and is evaluated. Therefore, it is likely that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments, and it is possible that the difference may be material. G4G management believes that its assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the Business Combination and the related transactions based on information available to management at this time and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not give effect to any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings, or cost savings that may be associated with the Business Combination. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position would have been had the Business Combination and related transactions taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the post-combination company. They should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of G4G and ZeroNox.

Note 2. Accounting Policies and Reclassifications

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, management will perform a comprehensive review of the two entities’ accounting policies. As a result of the review, management may identify differences between the accounting policies of the two entities which, when conformed, could have a material impact on the financial statements of the post-combination company. Based on its initial analysis, management did not identify any differences that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.

Accounting for Stock Option Conversion

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation arrangements with employees and non-employee consultants using a fair value method which requires the recognition of compensation expense for costs related to all stock-based payments, including stock options. As of the Effective Time, each ZeroNox option prior to the business combination that is then outstanding will be converted into an option to purchase shares of New ZeroNox common stock upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are in effect with respect to such option immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to specific terms and conditions. As the ZeroNox post-merger options will contain only service-based vesting conditions, management will recognize the incremental fair value related to the portion of the fully vested post-merger option and subject to service-based vesting conditions as consideration transferred. As there was no incremental increase in fair value as a result of the modification, no pro forma adjustment was recorded.

Note 3. Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Business Combination and related transactions and has been prepared for informational purposes only.

191

Table of Contents

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” Release No. 33-10786 replaces the existing pro forma adjustment criteria with simplified requirements to depict the accounting for the transaction (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and present the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”). G4G has elected not to present Management’s Adjustments and will only be presenting Transaction Accounting Adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. G4G and ZeroNox have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

The pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations are based upon the number of New ZeroNox’s common stock outstanding, assuming the Business Combination and related transactions occurred on January 1, 2022.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet

The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 are as follows:

Transaction Accounting Adjustments

Represents the release of proceeds from investments held in the trust account upon consummation of the Business Combination to fund the closing of the Business Combination.

Represents estimated non-recurring transaction costs of $9.2 million inclusive of deferred underwriting, advisory, banking, printing, legal, accounting and other fees that are expensed as a part of the Business Combination and equity issuance costs that are capitalized into additional paid-in capital. Equity issuance costs of $3.3 million are offset to additional paid-in capital and the remaining balance is expensed through accumulated deficit. The costs expensed through accumulated deficit are included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 (see adjustment BB).

Reflects the reclassification of approximately $256.8 million of common stock subject to possible redemption to permanent equity.

Represents recapitalization of ZeroNox’s outstanding equity as a result of the reverse recapitalization and the issuance of common stock to ZeroNox Equity Holders as consideration for the reverse recapitalization.

Reflects the reclassification of G4G’s historical accumulated deficit into additional paid-in capital as part of the reverse recapitalization.

Represents the exchange of 800,000 G4G Class A shares of common stock and 6,325,000 G4G Class B shares of common stock into 7,125,000 New ZeroNox shares of common stock.

Represents the forfeiture of 790,625 Sponsor Class B common shares as of the Closing Date as agreed to in the Sponsor Support Agreement.

Reflects the issuance of 1,581,250 shares of common stock pursuant to the 25,300,000 outstanding Rights. Each Right represents the right to receive one-sixteenth (1/16) of one share of common stock upon the consummation of the Business Combination and related transactions.

Reflects the adjustment for the Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares totaling 1,581,250 which shall be placed into escrow and subject to forfeiture. G4G has preliminarily determined that the Sponsor Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares are not indexed to G4G’s own stock and is therefore each accounted for as a liability which will be remeasured to fair value at subsequent reporting dates. The change in estimated fair value is noted in adjustment (J).

Represents the estimated fair value of the earnout consideration for holders of the Sponsor Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares. G4G has preliminarily determined that the earnout consideration for the Sponsor Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares are not indexed to G4G’s own stock and is therefore each accounted for as a liability which will be remeasured to fair value at

192

Table of Contents

subsequent reporting dates with the change in fair value recognized as a gain or loss in the statement of operations. The pro forma value of the earnout consideration for the Sponsor Deferral Pool Lock-Up Shares was estimated utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model. he significant assumptions utilized in estimating the fair value of earnout consideration include the following: (1) our common stock price of $10.00; (2) risk-free rate of 3.63%; (3) expected transaction date of August 15, 2023, with a maximum lock-up period covering 5.01 years; and (4) expected equity volatility of 60.00%. A 20% increase or decrease in the volatility would change the estimated fair value to $17,064,000 and $11,376,000, respectively. Estimates are subject to change as additional information becomes available and additional analyses are performed and such changes could be material once the final valuation is determined at the Effective Time.

Reflects the settlement of the $8,855,000 in deferred underwriting fee payable, of which the entire balance was waived pursuant to a letter issued March 2, 2023 by Barclays Capital Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC.

Reflects a scenario in which 21,910,100 Public Shares are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination, for aggregate payments to redeeming Public Shareholders of $222.5 million (assuming a redemption price of $10.15 per share), allocated to common stock and additional paid-in capital using par value $0.0001 per share.

Represents the forfeiture of an additional 1,790,625 Sponsor Class B common shares as of the Closing Date as agreed to in the Sponsor Support Agreement as a result of redemptions of Class A common shares exceeding 95% of the Class A common shares outstanding.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations

The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operation for the year ended December 31, 2022 are as follows:

AA. Reflects elimination of realized and unrealized investment income on the trust account as the investments held in trust account is assumed to be disposed on January 1, 2022.

BB. Reflects the estimated transaction costs of approximate $6.0 million as if incurred on January 1, 2022, the date the Business Combination occurred for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations. This is a non-recurring item.

CC. Reflects the gain on the waived deferred underwriting fee payable referenced in adjustment (K) as if incurred on January 1, 2022.

Note 4. Net Loss per Share

Net loss per share was calculated using the historical weighted average shares outstanding, and the issuance of additional shares in connection with the Business Combination and the related transactions, assuming the shares were outstanding since January 1, 2022. As the Business Combination and the related transactions are being reflected as if they had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Business Combination and related have been outstanding for the entirety of all periods presented.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to present two alternative scenarios with respect to redemption of common stock by G4G Public Stockholders at the time of the Business Combination for the year ended December 31, 2022:

INFORMATION ABOUT G4G

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to G4G prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

General

Following the closing of G4G’s initial public offering, a total of $253,000,000 ($10.00 per unit) of the net proceeds from its initial public offering and the sale of the private placement warrants was placed in the trust account. The proceeds held in the trust account may be invested by the trustee only in U.S. government treasury obligations with maturities of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. As of March 31, 2023, funds in the trust account totaled $259,522,722.80. These funds will remain in the trust account, except for the withdrawal of interest to fund G4G’s working capital requirements, and/or to pay taxes, if any, until the earliest of (1) the completion of a business combination (including the closing of the Business Combination), (2) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Cayman Constitutional Documents to modify the substance or timing of G4G’s obligation to provide holders of our Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with G4G’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if it does not complete a business combination by June 14, 2023 (or September 14, 2023 if extended by resolution of the directors of G4G, or as may be otherwise extended, in each case in accordance with the Cayman Constitutional Documents) or with respect to any other provision relating to certain of the shareholders’ rights, and (3) the redemption of all of the public shares if G4G is unable to complete a business combination by June 14, 2023 (or September 14, 2023, or any such other extended date, as applicable), subject to applicable law.

Effecting G4G’s Initial Business Combination

Fair Market Value of Target Business

The rules of the Nasdaq and G4G’s Cayman Constitutional Documents require that G4G’s Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the trust account (net of amounts disbursed to management for the payment of taxes and excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount held in trust). The G4G Board determined that this test was met in connection with the proposed Business Combination.

Shareholder Approval of Business Combination

G4G is seeking shareholder approval of the Business Combination at the extraordinary general meeting, at which shareholders may elect to redeem their shares, regardless of if or how they vote in respect of the BCA Proposal, into their pro rata portion of the trust account, calculated as of two business days prior to the commencement of the Business Combination including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us (net of taxes payable). G4G will commence the Business Combination only if it has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such commencement and the Condition Precedent Proposals have been approved, except in the event that its governing documents shall have been amended to remove such requirement prior to or concurrently with the Closing, which is a limitation under the Cayman Constitutional Documents that is proposed to be removed in Proposal No. 2 of this proxy statement/prospectus. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such public shareholder or any other person with whom such public shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its public shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares. Accordingly, if a public shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.

Table of Contents

At any time at or prior to the Business Combination, subject to applicable securities laws (including with respect to material nonpublic information), the Sponsor, the existing shareholders of ZeroNox or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors or respective affiliates may (i) purchase public shares from institutional and other investors who vote, or indicate an intention to vote, against any of the Condition Precedent Proposals, or elect to redeem, or indicate an intention to redeem, public shares, (ii) execute agreements to purchase such shares from such investors in the future, or (ii) enter into transactions with such investors and others to provide them with incentives to acquire public shares, vote their public shares in favor of the Condition Precedent Proposals or not redeem their public shares. Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such shareholder, although still the record holder of G4G’s shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that the Sponsor, the existing shareholders of ZeroNox or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors, or respective affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. The purpose of such share purchases and other transactions would be to increase the likelihood of (1) satisfaction of the requirement that holders of a majority of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting, vote in favor of the BCA Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, Incentive Award Plan Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal (if presented), (2) satisfaction of the requirement that holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the extraordinary general meeting, vote in favor of the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposals and the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, (3) otherwise limiting the number of public shares electing to redeem and (4) G4G’s net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) being at least $5,000,001, which is a limitation under the Cayman Constitutional Documents that is proposed to be removed in Proposal No. 2 of this proxy statement/prospectus.

Liquidation if No Business Combination

If G4G has not completed the Business Combination with New ZeroNox by the Liquidation Date and has not completed another business combination by such date, G4G will: (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses and which interest will be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of G4G’s remaining shareholders and its board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

Sponsor has entered into a letter agreement with G4G, dated as of December 9, 2021 pursuant to which they have waived their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their G4G Class B ordinary shares if G4G fails to complete its business combination within the required time period. However, if Sponsor owns any public shares, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to such public shares if G4G fails to complete its business combination within the allotted time period.

The Sponsor and G4G’s directors and officers have agreed, pursuant to a written agreement with G4G, that they will not propose any amendment to the Cayman Constitutional Documents (A) to modify the substance or timing of G4G’s obligation to allow for redemption in connection with G4G’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of its public shares if it does not complete its business combination by the Liquidation Date or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless G4G provides its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their public shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (which interest will be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares. However, G4G may not redeem its public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 following such redemptions, except in the event that its governing documents shall have been amended to remove such requirement prior to or concurrently with the Closing, which is a limitation under the Cayman Constitutional Documents that is proposed to be removed in Proposal No. 2 of this proxy statement/prospectus.

G4G expects that all costs and expenses associated with implementing its plan of dissolution, as well as payments to any creditors, will be funded from amounts held outside the trust account, although it cannot assure you that there will be sufficient funds for such purpose. However, if those funds are not sufficient to cover the costs and expenses associated with implementing G4G’s plan of dissolution, to the extent that there is any interest accrued in the trust account not required to pay taxes, G4G may request the trustee to release to us an additional amount of up to $100,000 of such accrued interest to pay those costs and expenses.

The proceeds deposited in the trust account could, however, become subject to the claims of G4G’s creditors which would have higher priority than the claims of G4G’s public shareholders. G4G cannot assure you that the actual per-share redemption amount received by public shareholders will not be substantially less than $10.00. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Business Combination and G4G — If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the trust account could be reduced and the per share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share (which was the offering price in our initial public offering)” and other risk factors contained herein. While G4G intend to pay such amounts, if any, G4G cannot assure you that G4G will have funds sufficient to pay or provide for all creditors’ claims.

Although G4G will seek to have all vendors, service providers (other than G4G’s independent auditors), prospective target businesses and other entities with which G4G does business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the trust account for the benefit of G4G’s public shareholders, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements or even if they execute such agreements that they would be prevented from bringing claims against the trust account including but not limited to fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain an advantage with respect to a claim against G4G’s assets, including the funds held in the trust account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the trust account, G4G’s management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will enter into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a waiver only if management believes that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to us than any alternative. Examples of possible instances where G4G may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where G4G is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse against the trust account for any reason. Upon redemption of G4G’s public shares, if G4G has not completed G4G’s initial business combination within the required time period, or upon the exercise of a redemption right in connection with G4G’s initial business combination, G4G will be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against us within the 10 years following redemption. In order to protect the amounts held in the trust account, Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than G4G’s independent auditors) for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which G4G has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the trust account to below the lesser of (1) $10.00 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account if less than $10.00 per public share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay our tax obligations; provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third-party or prospective target business that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account nor will it apply to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of this offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, then the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. G4G has not independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and G4G believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of G4G and, therefore, the Sponsor may not be able to satisfy those obligations. None of G4G’s other directors or officers will indemnify us for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

In the event the proceeds in the trust account are reduced below the lesser of (a) $10.00 per public share and (b) the actual amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account if less than $10.00 per public share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay tax obligations, and the Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its indemnification obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, G4G’s independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While G4G currently expects that G4G’s independent directors would take legal action on G4G’s behalf against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to us, it is possible that G4G’s independent directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so in any particular instance. Accordingly, G4G cannot assure you that due to claims of creditors the actual value of the per-share redemption price will not be substantially less than $10.00 per share. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Business Combination and G4G — If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the trust account could be reduced and the per share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share (which was the offering price in our initial public offering)” and other risk factors contained herein.

G4G will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the trust account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (other than G4G’s independent auditors), prospective target businesses and other entities with which G4G does business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the trust account. The Sponsor will also not be liable as to any claims under G4G’s indemnity of the underwriters of the initial public offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

If G4G files a winding-up or bankruptcy petition or an involuntary winding-up or bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the trust account could be subject to applicable insolvency law, and may be included in G4G’s insolvency estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of G4G’s shareholders. To the extent any insolvency claims deplete the trust account, G4G cannot assure you G4G will be able to return $10.00 per share to G4G’s public shareholders. Additionally, if G4G files a winding-up or bankruptcy petition or an involuntary winding-up or bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or insolvency laws as a voidable performance. As a result, a bankruptcy court could seek to recover some or all amounts received by G4G’s shareholders. Furthermore, the G4G Board may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to G4G’s creditors or may have acted in bad faith, and thereby exposing itself and us to claims of punitive damages, by paying public shareholders from the trust account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. G4G cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against us for these reasons. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Business Combination and G4G — If, after we distribute the proceeds in the trust account to our public shareholders, G4G files a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, a bankruptcy court may seek to recover such proceeds, and we and our board of directors may be exposed to claims of punitive damages.”

G4G’s public shareholders will be entitled to receive funds from the trust account only upon the earliest to occur of: (1) G4G’s completion of an initial business combination, and then only in connection with those G4G Class A ordinary shares that such shareholder properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein; (2) the redemption of any public shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Cayman Constitutional Documents (A) to modify the substance or timing of G4G’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with G4G’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if G4G does not complete G4G’s initial business combination by the Liquidation Date or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to certain of the shareholders’ rights; and (3) the redemption of the public shares if G4G has not completed an initial business combination by the Liquidation Date, subject to applicable law. In no other circumstances will a shareholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the trust account. Holders of G4G warrants will not have any right to the proceeds held in the trust account with respect to the G4G warrants.

Facilities

G4G currently maintains its executive offices at 12 E 49th Street, 11th Floor, New York, NY 10017. G4G considers its current office space adequate for G4G’s current operations.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the principal executive offices of New ZeroNox will be located at 1343 S. Main Street, Porterville, CA 93257.

Employees

G4G currently has five executive officers. Members of G4G’s management team are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to G4G’s matters but they intend to devote as much of their time as they deem necessary to G4G’s affairs until G4G has completed G4G’s initial business combination. The amount of time that any members of G4G’s management team will devote in any time period will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for G4G’s business combination and the current stage of the Business Combination process.

Competition

If G4G succeeds in effecting the Business Combination, there will be, in all likelihood, significant competition from ZeroNox’s competitors. G4G cannot assure you that, subsequent to the Business Combination, New ZeroNox will have the resources or ability to compete effectively. Information regarding New ZeroNox’ competition is set forth in the sections entitled “Information about ZeroNox — Competition.”

Number, Terms of Office and Appointment of Directors and Officers

The G4G Board consists of five members and is divided into three classes, with only one class of directors being appointed in each year, and with each class (except for those directors appointed prior to our first annual general meeting) serving a three-year term. Prior to our initial business combination, any vacancy on the board of directors may be filled by a nominee chosen by holders of a majority of the Founder Shares. In addition, prior to the completion of an initial Business Combination, holders of a majority of the Founder Shares may remove a member of the board of directors for any reason.

G4G’s officers are appointed by the board of directors and serve at the discretion of the board of directors, rather than for specific terms of office. The G4G Board is authorized to appoint persons to the offices set forth in the Cayman Constitutional Documents, as it deems appropriate. The Cayman Constitutional Documents provide that G4G’s officers may consist of one or more chairperson of the board, chief executive officer, president, chief financial officer, vice presidents, secretary, treasurer and such other offices as may be determined by the board of directors.

Director Independence

The rules of the Nasdaq require that a majority of the G4G Board be independent. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the company’s board of directors, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act, and the listing standards of the Nasdaq. In addition, members of G4G’s compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth under the listing standards of the Nasdaq.

The G4G Board has determined that each of Mr. Gandhi, Ms. Freidheim and Mr. Roetter is an “independent director” under applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules.

G4G’s independent directors have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The G4G Board has three standing committees: an audit committee, a nominating committee and a compensation committee, each composed of independent directors.

Audit Committee

G4G has established an audit committee of the board of directors. Vikram Gandhi, Isabelle Freidheim and Alex Roetter serve as members of G4G’s audit committee. The G4G Board has determined that each of them are independent under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules. Mr. Gandhi serves as the Chairperson of the audit committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, all the directors on the audit committee must be independent. Each member of the audit committee is financially literate and our board of directors has determined that Mr. Gandhi qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.

The audit committee is responsible for:

●

meeting with our independent registered public accounting firm regarding, among other issues, audits, and adequacy of our accounting and control systems;

●

monitoring the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm;

●

verifying the rotation of the lead (or coordinating) audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible for reviewing the audit as required by law;

●

inquiring and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

●

pre-approving all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm, including the fees and terms of the services to be performed;

●

appointing or replacing the independent registered public accounting firm;

●

determining the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent registered public accounting firm (including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work;

●

establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or reports which raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies;

●

monitoring compliance on a quarterly basis with the terms of our initial public offering and, if any noncompliance is identified, immediately taking all action necessary to rectify such noncompliance or otherwise causing compliance with the terms of our initial public offering; and

●

reviewing and approving all payments made to our existing shareholders, executive officers or directors and their respective affiliates. Any payments made to members of our audit committee will be reviewed and approved by our board of directors, with the interested director or directors abstaining from such review and approval.

Nominating Committee

G4G has established a nominating committee of the G4G Board . The members of G4G’s nominating committee are Isabelle Freidheim and Alex Roetter. Ms. Freidheim serves as chairperson of the nominating committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards, a nominating committee must be composed entirely of independent directors. The G4G Board has determined that each of Ms. Freidheim and Mr. Roetter are independent.

The nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors. The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers and others.

Guidelines for Selecting Director Nominees

The guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in a charter adopted by G4G, generally provides that persons to be nominated:

●

should have demonstrated notable or significant achievements in business, education or public service;

●

should possess the requisite intelligence, education and experience to make a significant contribution to the board of directors and bring a range of skills, diverse perspectives and backgrounds to its deliberations; and

●

should have the highest ethical standards, a strong sense of professionalism and intense dedication to serving the interests of the shareholders.

The nominating committee will consider a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience, background and integrity and professionalism in evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the board of directors. The nominating committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time and will also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of board members. The nominating committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by shareholders and other persons.

Compensation Committee

G4G has established a compensation committee of our board of directors. The members of our compensation committee are Alex Roetter and Vikram Gandhi. Mr. Roetter serves as chairperson of the compensation committee.

Under the Nasdaq listing standards, G4G is required to have a compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors. The G4G Board has determined that each of Mr. Roetter and Mr. Gandhi are independent. G4G has adopted a compensation committee charter, which details the principal functions of the compensation committee, including:

●

reviewing and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, evaluating our Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the remuneration (if any) of our Chief Executive Officer based on such evaluation;

●

reviewing and approving the compensation of all of our other Section 16 executive officers;

●

reviewing our executive compensation policies and plans;

●

implementing and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;

●

assisting management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements;

●

approving all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our executive officers and employees;

●

producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and

●

reviewing, evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.

The charter also provides that the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the compensation committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.

Code of Conduct

G4G has adopted a Code of Conduct applicable to G4G’s directors, officers and employees, which is posted on G4G’s website. G4G intends to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of the Code of Conduct in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Executive Officer and Director Compensation

Other than the monthly payment of $25,000 to the Sponsor for office space, administrative and support services, none of G4G’s executive officers or directors has received any cash (or non-cash) compensation for services rendered to G4G. The Sponsor, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. G4G’s independent directors review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to the Sponsor, officers, directors or G4G or their affiliates.

After the completion of the initial business combination, directors or members of G4G’s management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to G4G’s shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time, because the directors of the post-combination business will be responsible for determining executive and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to G4G’s officers will be determined by G4G’s compensation committee.

G4G does not intend to take any action to ensure that members of G4G’s management team maintain their positions with G4G after the consummation of the initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of G4G’s executive officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with G4G after the initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with G4G may influence G4G’s management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but G4G does not believe that the ability of G4G’s management to remain with G4G after the consummation of the initial business combination will be a determining factor in G4G’s decision to proceed with any potential business combination. G4G is not party to any agreements with G4G’s executive officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.

Legal Proceedings

There is no material litigation, arbitration or governmental proceeding currently pending against G4G or any members of G4G’s management team in their capacity as such.

Periodic Reporting and Audited Financial Statements

G4G has registered its securities under the Exchange Act and has reporting obligations, including the requirement to file annual and quarterly reports with the SEC. In accordance with the requirements of the Exchange Act, G4G’s annual reports contain financial statements audited and reported on by G4G’s independent registered public accounting firm. G4G has filed with the SEC its Annual Report on Form 10-K covering the fiscal period ended December 31, 2022.

G4G’S MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of G4G’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with G4G’s consolidated financial statements and notes to those statements included in this proxy statement/prospectus. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. G4G’s actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors. Please see “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward- Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to the “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “G4G” refer to G4G prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated on July 2, 2021 as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. We intend to effectuate the Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the initial public offering and the sale of the private placement units, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, equity and debt.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from July 2, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for our initial public offering, described below, and since the closing of our initial public offering, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of unrealized gains and interest income from the proceeds derived from the initial public offering. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as due diligence expenses.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we had a net income of $2,319,152, which resulted from interest and dividend income from the trust account of $1,903,452 and an unrealized gain on investments held in the trust account of $2,020,214, partially offset by operating costs of $1,604,514.

For the period from July 2, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, we had a net loss of $110,338, which resulted from payments for formation and operating costs of $105,282 and an unrealized loss on investments held in the trust account of $5,056.

Liquidity and Going Concern

On December 14, 2021, we consummated our initial public offering of 25,300,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the units sold, the “Public Shares”), including 3,300,000 Units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option in full, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $253,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of our initial public offering, we completed the private sale of 800,000 Units to G4G Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit (the “private placement units”), including 66,000 private placement units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option in full, generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $832,637, which was due to an unrealized gain on investments held in the trust account of $2,020,214 and interest and dividend income from the trust account of $1,903,452; partially offset by our net income of $2,319,152 and changes in working capital accounts of $771,877.

For the period from July 2, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was $696,989, which was due to changes in working capital of $591,707 and our net loss of $110,338, partially offset by the non-cash unrealized loss on investments held in the trust account added back to net income of $5,056.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, there was no investing activity.

205

Table of Contents

For the period from July 2, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, net cash used in investing activities of $253,000,000 was the result of the amount of net proceeds from our initial public offering being deposited into a trust account.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in financing activities of $89,231 was comprised solely from payment of offering costs.

For the period from July 2, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities of $255,434,500 was comprised of $247,940,000 in proceeds from the issuance of units in our initial public offering net of underwriter’s discount paid, $8,000,000 in proceeds from the issuance of the private placement units to our sponsor, proceeds from a promissory note with our sponsor of $237,784 and proceeds from the issuance of Class B ordinary shares (the “founder shares”) to our sponsor of $25,000, partially offset by the repayment of the promissory note with our sponsor of $237,784, payment of offering costs of $530,500.

As of December 31, 2022, we had investments held in the trust account of $256,918,610. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the trust account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the trust account, which interest shall be net of taxes payable and excluding deferred underwriting fees, to complete our initial Business Combination. We may withdraw interest from the trust account to pay taxes, if any. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the trust account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

As of December 31, 2022, we had cash of $815,643 held outside the trust account. We intend to use the funds held outside the trust account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds following the initial public offering in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business prior to our initial Business Combination, other than funds available from loans from our Sponsor, its affiliates or members of our management team. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial Business Combination. In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If we complete our initial Business Combination, we may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the trust account released to us. In the event that our initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into private placement units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per Unit at the option of the lender. The Units would be identical to the private placement units. The terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Prior to the completion of our initial Business Combination, we do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our Sponsor, its affiliates or our management team as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account.

Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing to complete our initial Business Combination, either because the transaction requires more cash than is available from the proceeds held in our trust account, or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon completion of the Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. If we have not consummated our initial Business Combination within the required time period because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the trust account.

Going Concern

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $815,643 in cash held outside of the trust account and a working capital surplus of $635,473. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)’s Accounting Standards Update 2014-15, Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, management has determined that if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by June 14, 2023 (which period can be extended to (i) September 14, 2023 at the election of the Company, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the deposit of a total of $2,530,000 ($0.10 per Unit) or (ii) any extended period of time that the Company may have to consummate a Business Combination as a result of an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of

206

Table of Contents

Association), then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern one year from the date that these financial statements are issued. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to complete a Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date or obtain approval for an extension.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2022 or 2021.

Contractual Obligations

Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement

The holders of the Founder Shares, private placement units and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants included in the private placement units (the “private placement warrants”) and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on the effective date of our initial public offering. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of our initial Business Combination. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lockup period, which occurs (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, as described in the following paragraph, and (ii) in the case of the private placement units, private placement warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, and the respective Class A ordinary shares underlying such warrants, 30 days after the completion of our initial Business Combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

The holders of the Founder Shares have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell (i) any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of (A) one year after the completion of our initial Business Combination and (B) subsequent to our initial Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after our initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the holders of the Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Underwriting Agreement

Simultaneously with the closing our initial public offering, the underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 3,300,000 Units at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $33,000,000.

The underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of $0.20 per Unit, or $5,060,000 in the aggregate, upon the closing of our initial public offering. In addition, $0.35 per Unit, or $8,855,000 in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriters for deferred underwriting fees. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the trust account solely in the event that we complete our initial Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

Warrant Classification

We account for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, Distinguishing

207

Table of Contents

Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”), and ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding. For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. The warrants included in the Units sold in our initial public offering (the “public warrants”) and private placement warrants are equity classified.

G4G Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

We account for our Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified in temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our Public Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Public Shares are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of our balance sheets.

We recognize changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit.

Net Loss Per Ordinary Share

Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from net income (loss) per share as the redemption value approximates fair value. Therefore, the earnings per share calculation allocates income and losses shared pro rata between Class A and Class B ordinary shares. As a result, the calculated net income (loss) per share is the same for Class A and Class B ordinary shares. We have not considered the effect of the public warrants or rights included in the Units in our initial public offering, and private placement warrants to purchase an aggregate of 14,631,250 shares in the calculation of diluted net loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants and rights is contingent upon the occurrence of future events.

Recent Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Following the consummation of our initial public offering, the net proceeds of our initial public offering, including amounts in the trust account, have been invested in U.S. government treasury obligations with maturities of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

INFORMATION ABOUT ZERONOX

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or ��our” refer to the business of Zero Nox, Inc. and its subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

Who We Are

ZeroNox is committed to developing and deploying energy technologies that are cleaner, higher performing, and cost effective. ZeroNox’s business contributes to three of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, namely Goal 7 – ensuring access to affordable clean energy; Goal 9 – promoting sustainable industry and infrastructure, and Goal 13, taking urgent action to combat climate change.

At ZeroNox, we strive to be the preeminent electrification partner for all off-highway fleets and original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) that are ready to make the transition into a zero-emission future and that want to provide their customers with all-electric solutions that do not compromise performance. Our solutions are designed to span the whole product lifecycle for sustainably deploying OHEVs into the market and developing the supporting ecosystem. ZeroNox has three complementary business verticals:

●

The ZeroNox Electric Powertrain Platform (ZEPP) that converts off-highway gas- or diesel-powered vehicles into vehicles powered by our proprietary electric powertrain. ZeroNox integrates the ZEPP at the point of initial manufacturing for OEMs, and ZeroNox retrofits vehicles for existing fleets. These conversions are high performing, greatly improve sustainability, and perhaps most importantly, are economical, often having returns on investment within two to three years. Our ZEPP is built with software and telematics integral to the back-end support for our OEM and fleet partners.

●

EV distribution. Through a vast network of dealership locations, ZeroNox strategically distributes our partners’ EV products into underserved areas. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, ZeroNox distributes through 54 dealership locations in the US. Through recent contracts with OEMs and their relationships with dealerships, ZeroNox expects its distribution channel to expand to nearly 1,500 dealership locations nationwide.

●

EV infrastructure support. To strengthen the value proposition to OEMs and fleets, ZeroNox offers physical infrastructure support, such as charging stations, and plans to offer later this year, renewable microgrids and energy storage systems, critical to mass adoption of electrification and deployment of EVs at scale. We have developed a prototype of the Iron Vault 10.75kWh energy storage system which is currently being tested.

ZeroNox’s current product portfolio includes electric utility terrain vehicles (“UTVs”), hospitality carts, forklifts, lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery upgrades and electrification conversion kits. ZeroNox’s services include maintenance of sold products and working with OEMs in their transition to electric by partnering with their manufacturing teams to design and provide the electric powertrain solutions needed to support their execution in bringing electric vehicles to market. ZeroNox also has an in-house incubator where it develops and tests new technologies to continually improve its product suite, as a means to ensure our long-term success in the OHEV market.

Today, the “Powered by ZeroNox” brand can be seen on fleets operating at Bayer AG, Universal Orlando Resort, the Los Angeles International Airport (“LAX”), and even on Oprah’s ranch, among others. With our products, customers see significant improvements in vehicle productivity, lower maintenance costs, and longer battery life. By way of example, once upgraded with ZEPP, terminal transit vehicles at LAX reached a runtime of nearly 14 hours per battery charge as opposed to three to four hours prior to the upgrade.

Although we were incorporated in October 2017, we did not develop our first prototype until late 2018 and commercialize our first products until January 2019. Since 2019, we have delivered and sold approximately 800 Off Highway Electric Vehicles (including Tuatara UTVs, Ion hospitality carts and PEAK forklifts). We incurred a net loss of approximately $7.6 million and $4.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

ZeroNox Electric Powertrain Platform (“ZEPP”)

As we develop and commercialize our ZEPP, we partner with OEMs and larger fleets to bring the best-in-class powertrain platform to electrify their equipment and vehicles. We help customers with electrification challenges by providing services such as:

●

custom designing the ZEPP to their specifications;

●

guiding the integration of the ZEPP in their vehicles; and

●

providing post-sales servicing and support of their newly electrified fleet.

Our team of engineers has extensive experience in how to electrify gas-powered vehicles. We design custom-built electric powertrain platform kits for a wide range of manufacturer applications. We train and support the OEM and fleet teams as they incorporate our electrification conversion kits into their vehicles. We support them in bringing their EVs to market, and we provide post-sales service and support for the electric powertrain.

Our ZEPP combines all the necessary components to fully electrify an OHEV, including, the electric motor, lithium iron phosphate battery, battery management system (“BMS”), onboard charger, motor controller, telematics system and display screen. Importantly, we use lithium iron phosphate batteries in our ZEPP solutions because of their stability, cycle life and cost benefits. Our BMS is designed to prevent overcharging, control discharge and provide diagnostics of crucial battery information. In addition, the ZEPP features a fully integrated, first-party telematics system, allowing individual customers, fleet managers, and OEM partners to remotely monitor, manage, and service vehicles powered by ZEPP. While telematic devices are common for on-highway internal combustion vehicles, electric vehicles (especially off-highway vehicles) rarely, if ever, come with this functionality. We believe our ZEPP is a game-changer because it offers this unique functionality that is missing in OHEVs.

EV Distribution

In the United States, through recent contracts with OEMs and their relationships with dealerships, ZeroNox expects its distribution channel to expand to nearly 1,500 dealership locations nationwide. Outside of the U.S., partnerships similar to what we have developed with The Jospong Group of Companies in Ghana (“Jospong”), a diversified business group in Ghana operating in 14 sectors of the economy in Ghana, including waste management, are the beginning of our EV global distribution. See “- Material Agreements – Collaboration Agreement with Jospong.” We are committed to distributing EVs, providing exceptional service and support, as well as training local distributors, dealerships, and partners. ZeroNox currently distributes and supports Tuatara UTVs, the Ion luxury hospitality carts, and the PEAK forklifts under the “Powered by ZeroNox” brand.

Our value proposition to OEM and fleet partners is significantly strengthened by our EV infrastructure support business vertical. A prerequisite to the mass adoption of OHEVs is the infrastructure required to source electricity, support vehicle operations, and service them. We provide charging stations, and plan to provide later this year, renewable microgrids and energy storage systems to support OEM and fleet partners as they deploy EV solutions. We have developed a prototype of the Iron Vault 10.75kWh energy storage system which is currently being tested Customers who select us to electrify and/or upgrade their OHEVs not only get best-in-class ZEPP technology, but the infrastructure to ensure that their fleets can be deployed and serviced at scale.

In 2023, we plan to launch the Iron Vault Energy Storage System (“Iron Vault”), our proprietary rechargeable lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery storage system for commercial and residential applications. A prototype of the Iron Vault 10.75kWh system is currently being tested. The system enables the use of intermittent renewable energy sources and provides grid stability. Energy storage can also help lower energy costs by storing energy during off-peak hours when rates are lower and releasing it during peak hours when rates are higher. Iron Vault differentiates itself from competing products in several design features that reduce installation time and cost and allow for a greater range of system location. We believe these benefits will give us the competitive advantage, and in turn drive adoption and preference among installers.

Our Competitive Advantages

We have the first mover advantage in meeting the large, growing and underserved demand for OHEVs. We have revenue being generated today with our proven and proprietary technology and through our strategic partners, we have the ability to rapidly scale up production of our vehicles to meet anticipated growing demand based on current agreements and MOUs. We believe we have the following strategic, technological, and financial advantages over our competition:

●

Strategic. First mover advantage in meeting the large, growing, and underserved demand for electrifying OHEVs for OEMs and existing fleets, both efficiently and economically. We are a preferred strategic partner that is well-positioned to become the go-to partner for electrification of multiple product lines over time.

●

Technological. The ZEPP features a fully integrated, first-party telematics system. This allows individual customers, fleet managers, and OEM partners to remotely monitor, manage, and service their vehicles powered by ZEPP. Using the latest Internet of Things (IoT) hardware, we can receive diagnostic messages in near real-time allowing our service team to diagnose potential issues before the customer is even aware of a problem. As new features are developed, our seamless Over-the-Air (OtA) update system will keep the system up to date without user intervention. Using machine learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI) on gathered system data, ZeroNox service team members will be able to recommend preventative servicing of parts likely to experience issues. Fleet managers will have reduced downtime and faster recovery keeping their “Powered by ZEPP” vehicles working harder for longer. Fleet managers also gain insights on fleet movement patterns allowing them to remotely geolocate vehicles and establish geofencing and dynamic profiles. Vehicles can be configured per driver, location, or time-of-day to enhance safety and policy compliance. Integrating with ZeroNox Electric Vehicle Service Equipment (EVSE) will allow fleet managers to choose when and how to charge their equipment. Using advanced “Vehicle to X” (V2X) protocols, fleet managers can even use their fleet batteries to offset their electricity bills. OEM partners will have enhanced visibility to customer duty cycles and part failures. This close working partnership with the OEMs allows us to collaboratively design with them better products that can achieve higher performance, enhanced longevity, optimized energy storage, and faster charging.

While telematic devices are common for on-highway internal combustion vehicles, electric vehicles (especially off-highway vehicles) rarely, if ever, come with this functionality.

●

Financial. ZeroNox has achieved a revenue compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of approximately 200% over the last three years, and provided that all the validation and performance milestones set forth in each of the agreements with OEMs and fleet owners are met, ZeroNox can be in the position of having approximately $180 million in contracted revenue (including approximately $26.3 million in non-binding memoranda of understanding with customers), or about nine times historical revenue since inception. We believe that from an investor’s perspective, one of ZeroNox’s most important differentiators, relative to other EV companies, is our capital efficiency. We expect ZeroNox’s asset-light model will continue, allowing us the possibility of achieving profitability within 18 months of large scale production and deliveries of OHEVs, while cash needs for capital expenditure will be less than 1% of the revenues. We believe that we are able to achieve this attractive financial profile because of the time and effort we have invested into selecting the right manufacturing, OEM and distribution partners.

Growth Strategy

Our strategy is to maintain our asset-light business model while collaborating closely with OEMs and fleet owners and expanding our partnerships and keeping our proprietary technology in the ZEPP at the cutting edge. We intend to drive the growth of our business primarily through the following strategies:

Expand footprint to international markets

Our Collaboration Agreement with Jospong provides a strong foothold for us to expand our products and services across Africa. We plan to use the blueprint we are creating in Ghana to market and distribute the entire ecosystem needed for EVs and expand to other African countries. On November 18, 2022, we entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with Jospong setting forth the parties’ mutual commitment for a more robust relationship, specifically a joint venture of the parties for the purpose of distributing ZeroNox products in Ghana and other countries in Africa. ZeroNox will continue to look for opportunities to expand into other international markets. We also plan to use this Refuse Truck Electrification project with Jospong as a showcase to generate additional interests in our electrification products and services among domestic and overseas fleet operators.

Grow the number of large fleet electrification projects

We plan to leverage our success of the Refuse Truck Electrification project with Jospong and aggressively seek opportunities to help customers retrofit their large internal combustion fleet to electric for economic and environmental benefits. By providing a comprehensive solution for fleet electrification, ZeroNox is well-positioned to become a leader in this rapidly growing market.

Build our dealership and distribution network

Currently, we have agreements with 54 dealerships in the U.S. to sell the Tuatara vehicles, and 2 U.S. distributor locations to distribute the vehicles to dealerships within their respective distributor territory. We plan to continue to build our dealer and distributor network for the “Powered by ZeroNox” brand EVs, including the Tuatara UTVs, Ion luxury hospitality carts and PEAK forklifts.

Expand our product offerings

ZeroNox expects to continue to benefit from the gradual global adoption of clean energy zero-emission vehicle initiatives. We plan to leverage our proprietary electric powertrain technology and develop and introduce into the market new lines of products, including tractors, retrofits and other off-road vehicles.

Deepen our OEM relationships

The relationships we have with OEMs allow us to retain control of our intellectual property relating to ZEPP, software, firmware, and to servicing and evolving ZEPP’s parameters as the OEMs needs and fleets evolve. Once embedded into an OEM’s fleet, ZeroNox believes it will stay throughout a model’s lifecycle and upon refresh, therefore greatly benefitting from these established dealership networks that we believe can drive rapid growth. Further, many of the OHEV OEMs have multiple product lines into which ZeroNox plans to expand.

Industry Background

Despite its flaws, the gas-powered engine revolutionized our world and led to unprecedented progress across the transportation industry over the past century. Looking forward to the next 100 years, ZeroNox believes that the electrification of vehicles and equipment will forge a similar path, radically advancing further innovation.

As the world continues to adopt widespread electrification, we expect existing tailwinds to persist. Government regulation and incentive programs, shifting consumer sentiment, and an increased focus by corporations on environmental initiatives will continue to drive the uptake of electrified alternatives. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 asserted that electric vehicle buyers may qualify for a $7,500 tax credit, remaining in effect through 2032. The number of consumers preferring to purchase an electric vehicle versus a gas-powered vehicle now represent over half of all surveyed respondents, rising by 22% since 2020. More than 700 of the largest 2,000 publicly traded companies have made net zero commitments. The rapid evolution is clear and here to stay. According to the Rocky Mountain Institute, 81% of local and state governments, utilities, universities, private technology companies, and delivery services have begun electrifying their fleets. We believe that the initiative of vehicle electrification will continue to garner focus from governments, consumers, and corporations alike.

While a high degree of focus and resources are spent on traditional passenger electric cars, the electric vehicle market is much broader than that. As an example, the electrification of commercial vehicles has trailed that of passenger vehicles largely in part because of greater technical challenges. Commercial vehicles tend to be much heavier than their passenger counterparts. Furthermore, to make fiscal sense, commercial vehicles are often used more intensively and are expected to last longer. Because of these challenges, the electric vehicle industry has been forced to address the issue of battery power, reliability, weight, and safety, prompting further technological development. With the pain points well understood, it is important to note that the appetite for electrification remains strong. According to a whitepaper published by UPS and GreenBiz, 83% of large organizations ($1BN or more in revenue) are motivated to electrify their fleets. The most common reasons cited for motivation include sustainability goals, lower cost of ownership, and brand reputation. The drivers of demand are diverse, demonstrating the continuously evolving market.

A frequently overlooked cohort of vehicles that is poised for innovation and electrification is the off-highway vehicles, a market segment in which ZeroNox specializes. Industries such as agriculture, mining, and construction rely on heavy duty machinery and equipment, commonly powered by fossil fuels. The precedent of innovation in such industries is strong. From horsepower to steam power to gas power, invention endured. ZeroNox believes that zero emission electric power is next in line to disrupt the way in which these industries operate. Compared to their gas-powered alternatives, OHEVs benefit from lower maintenance costs, operating costs, and noise emissions. The costs of electric vehicles are expected to drop by 30% by 2025, driven by lower indirect costs such as R&D, as well as a reduction in battery prices due to technological improvements and scale. As these advantages are further realized, ZeroNox is well positioned to capitalize on these benefits in the electrification of OHEVs.

As demand for OHEVs rises, we anticipate that OEMs will seek to address the growing demand. Without the existing infrastructure, OEMs will likely struggle to move quickly and flexibly, missing out on the initial wave of customers. ZeroNox is at the forefront of the market transition. We plan to leverage our integrated business model, partnering with OEMs in their respective electrification processes. ZeroNox offers a full suite of electric vehicle solutions from design to electrification and is actively upgrading and retrofitting existing vehicles with our proprietary technology. The ZeroNox Electric Powertrain Platform expands across the diverse electric vehicle ecosystem and provides solutions to many of the largest challenges facing fleet electrification.

Market Opportunity

The OHEV Market

The transformation of today’s fleets and fuels to zero emission is a priority for governments, consumers, and corporations aiming to lower their carbon footprint. More than 70 countries worldwide have set a net-zero target, covering 76% of global emissions. In 2022, global investment in low-carbon energy technology surged past $1 trillion for the first time in history. Over $450 billion was directed toward electrified transport, representing a 54% year-over-year increase. ZeroNox’s total addressable market is estimated to be at over $1.3 trillion, and spans the global agriculture, construction, and mining segments, as well as the markets for forklifts, energy storage, and electric retrofits sectors. With approximately 75% of the OHEV sector stating that it will potentially pursue electrification, there is a significant unmet need for ZeroNox’s products and services.

Agricultural Equipment

The growth of the agricultural equipment market is expected to drive demand for electric solutions. According to Grand View Research, the global agriculture equipment market size was valued at approximately $155 billion in 2021 and is expected to grow at an annual rate of 5.0% between 2022 and 2030. Anticipated market growth will likely be fueled by technological advancement, enabling farmers to cut costs. A growing global population will result in an increased demand for food, accelerating the need for innovative solutions. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) notably projected that the world population would rise to 9.1 billion by 2050, increasing the number of mouths to feed by nearly a third. Additionally, a strong emphasis has been placed on the greenhouse gas emissions of the agriculture industry. In 2020, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimated that agriculture accounted for 11.2% of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States. The need for increased food production without further accelerating climate change has resulted in a shift from outdated fossil fuel powered agriculture equipment to electric alternatives. Our solution addresses these problems by electrifying agricultural equipment. The ZeroNox Powertrain Platform (ZEPP) enables agricultural OEMs to go fully electric in an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Powered by LFP batteries, ZEPP makes agricultural equipment more efficient, helping farmers reduce costs without compromising on performance.

●

Mining Equipment

The global mining equipment market size was estimated at $135 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at an annual rate of 5.1% from 2023 to 2030. The mining industry requires a significant amount of energy to extract and protect resources, creating a need for high-performing equipment. The mining sector is responsible for 4.0% to 7.0% of greenhouse gas emissions globally, and is facing increased pressure from governments, investors, and social causes to reduce emissions. Historically, mining equipment has been primarily powered by fossil fuels, demonstrated by the fact that only approximately 0.5% of mining equipment is currently electric powered. We believe that mining equipment is poised for an overhaul, turning towards electric solutions. Electric solutions can reduce both emissions and heat that are generated by traditional combustion engine powered mining equipment. With this, ventilation and cooling costs can be reduced while also potentially opening the window for smaller tunnels that require less excavation, reducing yet another significant economic burden associated with mining. Additionally, in certain cases, electric vehicles can benefit from a 20% lower cost of ownership as compared to traditional internal combustion engines. We believe that the new wave of corporate sustainability reporting and activity coupled with costs savings will further accelerate the mining industry’s adoption of electric equipment. ZeroNox’s innovative solutions are well-suited to address the current inefficiencies of the mining industry.

●

Construction Equipment

Similar to agriculture and mining equipment, construction equipment is also a major source of greenhouse gas emissions. Construction equipment is estimated to produce ~400 metric tons of CO2 emissions per year, equating to over 1% of global emissions. The global push to reduce emissions, in addition to the fact that the construction equipment market is estimated to grow from $180 billion to $223 billion from 2022 to 2027 at an annual rate of 4.3% creates a compelling market opportunity for ZeroNox’s solution. Our customizability allows OEMs the unique flexibility to build equipment that is best suited for specific projects and functions. Furthermore, with the increased urbanization and population expansion and the greater emphasis on air quality in cities, there is a growing need for smaller, customized electric construction equipment. More recently, many city governments have imposed noise regulations and restrictions on construction sites, further incentivizing a shift to quieter electric construction equipment. Electric equipment tends to contribute less noise pollution than traditional fossil fuel powered vehicles, making them a more attractive option in crowded urban and residential areas.

●

Forklifts

Out of all ZeroNox’s targeted end markets, forklifts present some of the most compelling growth prospects. The market is projected to reach $154 billion in value by 2030, growing 13.2% annually from 2022. Additionally, over this period, the electric segment of the forklift market is expected to grow at an annual rate of 14.9%. The market growth partially stems from an increased demand for forklifts in the industrial manufacturing industry as well as in the e-commerce industry. Increased internet accessibility has led to stiff competition in the e-commerce industry, driving consumer demands for shorter delivery times. In order to remain competitive, e-commerce players have had to prioritize efficiency and productivity, creating a greater need for forklifts. We believe that our solution’s customizability is a key differentiator in the forklift market. Forklifts are used in a variety of different capacities, with many requiring additional lifting power, and others requiring a greater range of steering

motion. ZeroNox offers a white glove service, working hand in hand with OEMs to design and build equipment that is specifically tailored to address the equipment’s functionality.

Energy Storage

Energy storage is a critical component of renewable power systems. Efficient storage prevents the waste of energy generated in off-peak hours, saving it for use when demand is at the highest level. Not only does this reduce costs and strains on the grid, but also helps solve the issue of intermittency, the inconsistency of availability across different renewable sources. Energy storage solutions improve the reliability of renewables, stockpiling energy for when the sun is not shining, the wind is not blowing, and when other renewable sources are unavailable. The global energy storage market value is expected to increase to $435 billion by 2030, growing at a 5% annual rate from 2022, when the market size was valued at $210 billion. In consideration of this expected growth, ZeroNox has positioned itself to support the increase in demand. Later in 2023, we will launch the Iron Vault Energy Storage System, powered by ZeroNox’s advanced battery technology, to provide a rechargeable lithium-iron residential battery storage system designed to address the needs of the modern energy landscape. Furthermore, ZeroNox’s value proposition to OEM and fleet partners is augmented by our EV infrastructure support business. Symbiotic to our other product lines, we provide charging stations, and plan to provide later this year, renewable microgrids and our Iron Vault energy storage systems to support OEM and fleet deployment. Our partners not only benefit from our best-in-class ZEPP technology, but also our infrastructure expertise.

Electric Vehicle Retrofitting

When considering the future of mass electrification of vehicles, the big challenge we need to address is: what to do with the billions of vehicles in existence globally today. To strictly replace gas powered vehicles presents an unrealistic burden of waste. Alternative to replacement, there exists the option of retrofitting. Instead of scrapping and recycling old vehicles, vehicles can be stripped down and reconfigured with an electric powertrain, saving significant time, effort, and capital. The market value of the global automotive retrofitting of electric vehicle powertrains is expected to reach $118 billion by 2030. As of 2022, the market size was estimated to be $61 billion. Our ZEPP presents a scalable option for electrifying existing fleets as well as providing OEMs a convenient solution to offer electric vehicle alternatives without significantly changing their respective infrastructure. When OEMs shift to electric vehicles, they often need to build out the capacity to manufacture in-house electric powertrain systems, which can be time-consuming and cost prohibitive. Our ZEPP offers an efficient and much more economical solution.

Industry Challenges

While OEMs and fleet owners want to respond to customer demand for zero-emission vehicles, legacy systems and workforce expertise is often oriented around the manufacturing of vehicles with an internal combustion engine. Obstacles to the rapid uptake of electrification can be found at each step of the value chain, and they include, but are not limited to, the following:

●

Design. When it comes to internal combustion engines, OEMs have decades of design expertise, manufacturing experience and engineering comfort. But most do not have the same comfort when it comes to electric powertrain. OEMs today largely lack the in-house expertise in how to combine the hardware and software to match the specific duty cycle of their application.

●

Development. There is a high cost to bring in the engineering and manufacturing of EV components in-house. The average cost of building a new EV factory is in the billions of dollars.

●

Infrastructure. To deploy electric vehicles at scale, whether they are on road or off road, you must have the infrastructure in place. Not only do you need power from the grid, but also power coming from a clean grid. Otherwise, you would have defeated the original purpose of going electric, and the need for renewable microgrids and energy storage systems. That infrastructure is starting to be developed for on-road vehicles, but there is even more work to be done for off-road vehicles as one thinks about the agricultural mining and construction markets.

●

Distribution. As OEMs transition to EV options, they also need help in targeting both opportunistic and underserved markets. Many have distribution channels set up specifically to their gas and diesel products, making this transition to electric all the more difficult.

●

Service. OEMs have trained mechanics throughout their distribution channels. However, the majority of issues for EV will be software versus hardware-related. Only 1% of the global vehicle stock was electric in 2020. It is estimated that approximately 16 million workers will need clean technology upskilling for the economy to transition to net zero emission by 2050. Significant

Integrating with ZeroNox Electric Vehicle Service Equipment (EVSE) will allow fleet managers to choose when and how to charge their equipment. Using advanced “Vehicle to X” (V2X) protocols fleet managers can even use their fleet batteries to offset electricity bills by OEM partners will have enhanced visibility to customer duty cycles and part failures. This close working relationship with OEMs allows us to collaboratively design with them better products that can achieve higher performance, enhanced longevity, optimized energy storage, and faster charging. While telematic devices are common for on-highway internal combustion vehicles, electric vehicles (especially off-highway vehicles) rarely if ever come with this functionality. We continually update our software over-the-air, ensuring it stays at the leading edge of technology available.

The 10.75kWh system is specifically designed to handle the demand of one day of electricity based on the average daily electricity consumption of an American standard household. We have built a prototype of Iron Vault, which is currently being tested.

Our Customers

Today, the “Powered by ZeroNox” brand can be seen on fleets operating at Bayer AG, Universal Orlando Resort, the Los Angeles International Airport (“LAX”), and even on Oprah’s ranch, among others. We have deployed our advanced electrification solutions into multiple fleets, and customers are seeing the benefits. Fleet retrofit projects make sense for a wide range of fleet owners, who want to benefit from the improved productivity, reduced downtime, increased battery life and cost savings that ZEPP provides without having to purchase new vehicles. ZeroNox sees fleet partnerships as an important cost-effective solution for large fleet owners that want to transition to electric as quickly as possible, while maximizing the useful life of their existing fleet. See below for three fleet retrofit projects and how our customers have benefitted, or are expected to benefit, from our LFP battery technology:

Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)

Airport Terminal Management (ATM) at Los Angeles’ Tom Bradley International Terminal at LAX utilizes a large fleet of Terminal Transport Vehicles (TTVs) that operates 24/7 at the international terminal to provide transport services to disabled passengers arriving to or departing from the international terminal. Before ATM partnered with ZeroNox, its TTVs were powered by lead acid batteries that had a run time of 3 - 4 hours on a full charge and an average charge time of three to four hours. The short run times and the constant need to charge and maintain the batteries resulted in a lot of down time for ATM and a greater rotation of its fleet to keep the operation running smoothly. After partnering with ZeroNox to upgrade its battery technology in each TTV, there was an impressive productivity gain and dramatic operational efficiencies. With the ZEPP technology, the TTVs now have a run time of 14 hours and can charge in the same three to four hour period. They can also charge only when convenient without any battery maintenance. ATM estimates a return on investment (“ROI”) of three months due to labor savings after having upgraded its TTVs with ZeroNox’s LFP technology.

Teixeira Farms,��Inc.

Teixeira Farms, Inc. (“Teixeira”) is a family farm with over 50 years of operating history along the central coastal areas of California. During peak growing seasons, Teixeira and its related companies employ more than 1,000 individuals. Teixeira has a large cold storage facility and strawberry processing plant where it operates a large fleet of lead acid electric forklifts. During peak season for strawberries, Teixeira operates its fleet of electric forklifts daily for 12 hour shifts at a time. Before partnering with ZeroNox, Teixeira operated its forklifts for approximately four hours before a battery swap was required. This necessitated two battery swaps during a 12-hour shift, and each battery swap would take approximately 30 minutes to complete, which meant that each forklift would experience an hour of down time during each shift. This process also required that each forklift have at least three batteries on hand to maximize productivity during a 12-hour shift. In order to manage that process, Teixeira utilized a large warehouse and team to store, charge, and maintain all of its lead acid forklift batteries. The costs related to overhead and downtime had an adverse effect on profitability. After partnering with ZeroNox to upgrade its battery technology, Teixeira experienced dramatic gains in productivity and ROI. With the ZeroNox LFP technology, Teixeira’s forklifts operate for 12-15 hours per charge and only need one battery per forklift. The ZeroNox LFP technology eliminated the need for battery swaps, which has shortened 12-hour shifts to 11 hours resulting in productivity gains. Teixeira has greatly reduced the need to use the large warehouse solely for the purpose of storing, maintaining and charging batteries and now utilizes this warehouse to store chargers and to charge its forklifts at night between shifts.

Jospong

Pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement between ZeroNox and Jospong, ZeroNox has agreed to electrify select existing internal combustion engine waste management truck fleets for Zoomlion Ghana Limited (“Zoomlion”), a subsidiary of Jospong, in addition to the establishment of ZeroNox distribution hubs in Ghana and selected surrounding African countries. Upon successful completion of a pilot program validation milestone requirements described in the Collaboration Agreement, Jospong has agreed to execute a purchase order for 1,000 electrification conversion kits to electrify 1,000 Zoomlion waste management trucks at an upfront per vehicle cost of $138,075 over the next two years. See “- Material Agreements – Collaboration Agreement with Jospong.” ZeroNox was recognized by Fast Company as a World Changing Ideas 2022 honoree for this project.

We currently expect that at the end of this retrofit project, Zoomlion’s maintenance costs will be reduced by, roughly 45%, fuel costs by about 85%, and CO2 emissions by nearly 95%. We believe these demonstrated benefits will be a game-changer for not only Zoomlion but the country of Ghana, as a whole. We plan to use the blueprint we are creating in Ghana to market and distribute the entire ecosystem needed for EVs and expand to other African countries. We also plan to use this Refuse Truck Electrification project with Jospong as a showcase to generate additional interests in our electrification products and services among domestic and overseas fleet operators who are looking to lower maintenance and operating costs, while dramatically reducing their carbon footprint.

Human Capital

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, we have 43 full-time employees in our headquarters in Porterville, California, two full-time employees in Utah and one in Tennessee. We seek to hire and develop employees who are dedicated to our strategic mission. Over the next twelve months, we intend to continue to hire a significant number of additional personnel across a variety of functions including, but not limited to, sales, marketing, servicing, product, engineering, supply chain, manufacturing and operations to support of our anticipated growth.

We are committed to maintaining equitable compensation programs including equity participation. We offer market-competitive salaries and strong equity compensation aimed at attracting and retaining team members capable of making exceptional contributions to our success. Our compensation decisions are guided by the external market, role criticality, and the contributions of each team member.

To date, we have not experienced any work stoppages and we consider our relationship with our employees to be good. None of our employees are either represented by a labor union or subject to a collective bargaining agreement.

Facilities

Our corporate headquarters are located in Porterville, California. It consists of 2.28 acres of land and approximately 42,000 square feet of executive office and warehouse space, which we also use for research and development, testing and assembly work. Also included in the lease is an additional 4.27 acres of land on three adjacent parcels of land. The current lease expires on August 31, 2023. We have an option to extend the current lease for two additional 60-month periods. We also have an option to purchase the leased building, the land and the three adjacent parcels for $2,700,000. We currently intend to exercise this option to purchase prior to the end of the term of the lease to accommodate the anticipated accelerated growth of our business.

Legal Proceedings

On March 1, 2022, Zero Motorcycles, Inc., an electric motorcycle manufacturer and seller located in California, filed a complaint with the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California alleging that ZeroNox has infringed its ZERO-formative registered trademarks, and is seeking a permanent injunction requiring ZeroNox to refrain from promoting, using, or registering any ZERO-formative mark in connection with electric vehicle products or technologies, an order cancelling two of ZeroNox’ trademark registrations, and an award of damages and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. ZeroNox does not believe this litigation has any merit and has denied all allegations, and plans to defend against these claims rigorously. An early attempt of mediation has failed and parties have engaged in initial exchange of written discovery. This litigation may be costly and may divert resources and management’s attention from ZeroNox’s business.

ZeroNox is not involved in any other litigation at this time. However, in the ordinary course of business, we may be involved in litigation from time to time relating to claims arising out of our operations and businesses that cover a wide range of matters, including, among others, intellectual property matters, contract and employment claims, personal injury claims, product liability claims and warranty claims. We establish an accrued liability for legal matters when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and estimable. Currently, there are no claims or proceedings against us that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, the results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty and, regardless of the outcome, we may incur significant costs and experience a diversion of management resources as a result of litigation.

Government Regulation and Investment

Legislation and Government Programs

There are a number of government programs and incentives that can provide valuable support and resources to accelerate the development and deployment of our clean, zero-emission solutions and advanced battery technologies. We expect favorable and potentially material impact on our electrification and clean technology from a number of actual and anticipated legislative or regulatory changes at the municipal, provincial/state or federal level in the U.S. or internationally; and they include, but are not limited to, the following:

The Inflation Reduction Act

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which was signed into law on August 16, 2022, is one of the most significant piece of legislation that accelerates electrification in the transportation sector in U.S. history. Commercial EVs will be eligible for federal tax credits for the first time, up to 30% of the sales price. Several key measures in the law, including support for EV manufacturing and supply chains, include:

●

$60 million for Diesel Emission Reduction Act program;

●

$2 billion for the Domestic Manufacturing Conversion Grant program;

●

$3 billion for the Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing program; and

●

a strong Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund.

Proposed Zero-Emission Forklift Regulation in California

If adopted, this regulation will stop the sale and purchase of internal combustion engine (ICE) forklifts in California. It has been reported that The California Air Resources Board (“CARB”) plans to phase out propane and diesel forklifts starting in 2026, although this recent proposal to phase out non-zero-emission forklifts is still in development and the legislation is not yet in effect.

“Tier 5” emission standards potentially coming to the California equipment market in 2028

On November 4, 2022, CARB held a public workshop to discuss “more stringent exhaust standards for all off-road engine power categories.” This so-called “Tier 5” emission standard is tentatively scheduled for consideration in September 2024 and would be implemented in 2028, potentially pushing for more electric options in the market.

California’s Net Energy Metering

In December 2022, The California Public Utilities Commission (“CPUC”) issued a decision that modernizes the Net Energy Metering (NEM) solar tariff to promote grid reliability, incentivize solar and battery storage, and control electricity costs for all Californians. To further reduce greenhouse gas emissions from electric generation, CPUC’s decision incentivizes its customers to install battery storage so they can store solar electricity produced in the daytime and export it in the evening, when the grid needs it the most for reliability and displacing fossil fuels.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

We do not believe we are subject to the environmental, health and safety (“EHS”) laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we currently operate and in which our products are currently distributed. In the event that we use, handle, generate, store, discharge and dispose of hazardous materials, chemicals and wastes at our facility in connection with our maintenance, research and product development, and testing activities in the future, we may be subject to EHS laws and regulations. In that case, we cannot determine at this time if the costs of compliance with these laws and regulations will be material to the business or our operations. Any failure by us to control the use of, to remediate the presence of or to restrict adequately the discharge of such materials, chemicals or wastes, or to comply with EHS legal requirements applicable to product content, labeling, distribution or disposal, could subject us to potentially significant liabilities, clean-up costs, monetary damages and fines or suspensions in our business operations. Although we have not incurred, and do not currently anticipate, any material liabilities in connection with such contamination, we may be required to make expenditures for environmental remediation in the future.

ZERONOX’S MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis provides information that ZeroNox’s management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of ZeroNox’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read together with “Selected Historical Consolidated Financial Information of ZeroNox” and the historical audited annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related respective notes thereto, included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. ZeroNox’s actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in this “ZeroNox Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” under “Risk Factors” or in other parts of this proxy statement/prospectus. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this “ZeroNox Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” to “ZeroNox” and “the Company” refer to the business and operations of ZeroNox Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Company Overview

ZeroNox is a clean energy technology company and the leading provider of electrification products and services for the off-highway electric vehicles (“OHEVs”) market. The company’s mission is to empower communities through innovation by developing and deploying energy technologies that are cleaner, higher performing, and cost-effective.

The company’s core strength lies in its ZeroNox Electric Powertrain Platform (ZEPP), which integrates critical components to electrify vehicles, such as electric motors, motor controllers, lithium-iron batteries, battery management systems, on-board chargers, telematics, and display screens. Through its relationships with leading manufacturers of OHEVs, ZeroNox has access to high-quality components, expertise, and market opportunities. The company also has telematics software that enables remote monitoring, diagnostics, and optimization of its vehicles, as well as fleet management and data analytics, allowing for improved efficiency, safety, and customer satisfaction.

ZeroNox’s solutions span the whole product lifecycle for sustainably deploying OHEVs into the market and developing the supporting ecosystem. The company has three complementary verticals: the ZeroNox Electric Powertrain Platform (“ZEPP”), EV distribution, and EV infrastructure support.

ZeroNox’s key strategic initiatives include deepening its OEM relationships, growing the number of large fleet electrification projects, expanding its footprint in Africa and other international markets, building its equipment dealership and distribution network, and expanding its product offerings.

We expect our operating expenditures will increase significantly in connection with our ongoing activities, as we:

●

develop ZEPP and other emerging technology;

●

maintain and improve our operational, financial, and management information systems;

●

hire additional personnel;

●

obtain, maintain, expand, and protect our intellectual property portfolio; and

●

operate as a public company.

Business Combination and Public Company Costs

On March 7, 2023, ZeroNox entered into the Merger Agreement with G4G and G4G Merger Sub. As a result of the Business Combination, G4G will be renamed “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.” The Business Combination is anticipated to be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. ZeroNox will be deemed the accounting predecessor and the combined entity will be the successor SEC registrant, meaning that ZeroNox’s financial statements for previous periods will be disclosed in the registrant’s future periodic reports filed with the SEC. Under this method of accounting, G4G will be treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. Total transaction costs are estimated to be approximately $9,211,920.

225

Table of Contents

As a result of the Business Combination, ZeroNox will become the successor to an SEC-registered and NASDAQ-listed company, which will require ZeroNox to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. ZeroNox expects to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees, and additional internal and external accounting, legal, and administrative resources, including increased personnel costs, audit, and other professional service fees.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

We believe that our performance and future success depend on several factors that present significant opportunities for us but also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

Opportunities and Challenges in the EV Landscape

Significant opportunities for ZeroNox include deepening its OEM relationships, growing the number of large fleet electrification projects, expanding its footprint in Africa and other international markets, building its equipment dealership and distribution network, and expanding its product offerings. These factors will impact the company’s performance and future success as it navigates the evolving EV landscape.

Factors Affecting Product Commercialization

Factors affecting the commercial launch of ZeroNox’s products include securing strategic partnerships, technology development, and market demand. The timeline for revenue generation will depend on the successful completion of prototype productions and the establishment of distribution channels with partners.

Manufacturing and Supply Chain Constraints

Manufacturing and supply chain constraints include potential disruptions due to geopolitical tensions, global economic downturns, supplier issues, and unexpected events like natural disasters or pandemics. These factors may impact ZeroNox’s ability to meet production and delivery schedules, affecting its operating results.

Funding Requirements and Sources

Expected funding requirements for ZeroNox’s operations and development efforts will depend on the scale and pace of its expansion plans, investments in R&D, and any unforeseen contingencies. Sources of funding may include equity financing, debt financing, strategic partnerships, and government grants.

Key Performance Indicators for Customer Demand

Key performance indicators for measuring customer demand include the quantity of units sold, market share, customer satisfaction metrics, and sales growth rate. These metrics provide valuable insights into the demand for ZeroNox’s products and help the company make data-driven decisions.

Customer Demand Outlook and Competitive Landscape

We believe the outlook for customer demand for ZeroNox’s products is promising, given the increasing adoption of zero-emission vehicles, growing demand for electric agricultural equipment, and the global push for sustainability. However, the competitive landscape may pose challenges as other players enter the market with innovative technologies.

Managing Risks and Uncertainties in Customer Demand

Risks and uncertainties associated with customer demand include fluctuating market conditions, economic downturns, changes in consumer preferences, and the emergence of new competitors. ZeroNox is managing these risks through strategic partnerships, diversifying its product offerings, and investing in R&D to stay ahead of industry trends.

226

Table of Contents

ZeroNox’s Future Performance and Success Outlook

We believe the outlook for ZeroNox’s future performance and success is positive, given its strategic initiatives and the broader market and industry trends. However, the company must remain agile and adaptable in the face of evolving opportunities, risks, and challenges to maintain its competitive edge and drive growth.

Components of Results of Operations

Product Sales

ZeroNox’s historical revenues came from direct sales, dealership sales, and distribution of “Powered by ZeroNox” products, such as battery upgrades products for customers upgrading from lead acid batteries to LFP, Tuatara off-road electric and gas utility terrain vehicles (UTVs), ION electric UTV carts, and PEAK forklifts featuring lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries. Income from R&D phases of OEM contracts contributed to revenue growth.

The future revenue mix is expected to come from a diversified portfolio of OEM, fleet conversion, Iron Vault battery storage systems (which is expected to be lauched later in 2023), and the “Powered by ZeroNox” brands. Key factors driving revenue growth will be the conversion of early trial deployments to actual sales orders, and the expansion of the dealership and distributor network.

Cost of Product Sales and Freight and Shipping Costs

Cost of product sales have been driven by material and labor costs. Freight and shipping costs result from air and ocean freight, as well as duties and taxes. These costs are influenced by a variety of factors such as production volume, supply chain efficiency, and labor market conditions.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses have been driven by general and administrative expenses, payroll and related expenses, sales and marketing expenses, professional fees, and stock-based compensation.

General and administrative expenses include rent, insurance, operating subscriptions, repair and maintenance, and research and development. These expenses are predictable and not materially influenced by outside forces. Expenses incurred related to these items are expected to increase as operations are expanded.

Payroll and related expenses are influenced by labor market conditions. These expenses are expected to increase as we expand operations.

Sales and marketing expenses are expected to remain consistent relative to revenues as ZeroNox plans to leverage dealerships and partners to advertise ZeroNox’s products.

Stock-based compensation resulted from options issued to employees. As ZeroNox grows, additional compensation expenses may be incurred as incentives or to reward performance.

Overall, operating expenses are expected to increase as the company grows, supporting expanded operations, market reach, and product offerings.

Non-Operating Items

Non-operating expenses have been primarily driven by interest expenses and one-time gains and losses related to items such as recovery of bad debt and asset dispositions. Interest expenses may increase if the Company incurs additional debt to facilitate the expansion of operations.

Income Tax Provision

ZeroNox’s income tax provision affects net income, consisting of an estimate for U.S. federal and state income taxes based on enacted rates, adjusted for allowable credits, deductions, uncertain tax positions, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in tax law.

Product Sales and Gross Profit

For the year ended December 31, 2022, revenues totaled $9,679,651, an increase of $3,681,714, or approximately 61%, from the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of ZeroNox brands in dealerships and distributors. Additionally, sales discounts declined by approximately 67% as the Company no longer needed to match older quotes with logistics delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company anticipates future discounts to continue to be consistent with 2022 levels, or less than 1% of product sales.

Cost of product sales increased by $2,364,687, or approximately 51%, from $4,671,872 to $7,036,559 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively. However, cost of product sales as a percentage of net revenues decreased from approximately 81% for the year ended December 31, 2021, to approximately 73% for the year ended December 31, 2022. The resulting increase in gross margin was largely driven by an increase in demand and positioning the Company’s products as a premium offering, resulting in higher pricing to customers willing to pay premium prices. The Company expects to continue increasing gross margins as product sales increase and the Company gains efficiencies in production.

Freight and shipping costs increased by approximately $1,013,055, or approximately 133%, from $759,514 in 2021 to $1,772,569 in 2022. Freight and shipping costs as a percentage of net revenues increased from approximately 13% for the year ended December 31, 2021, to approximately 18% for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase in shipping costs was the result of macroeconomic conditions in worldwide supply chains causing increased shipping costs. Moving forward, the Company expects shipping costs to stabilize around 15% of net revenues.

Gross profit increased by $471,506, or approximately 156%, from $302,945 to $774,451 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit increased from approximately 5% for the year ended December 31, 2021, to approximately 8% for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company expects gross profit in the near term to be approximately 15% of net revenues.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses totaled $7,726,385 and $4,273,200 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase of approximately $3,453,185, or approximately 81%, was primarily driven by payroll and related expenses, professional fees, and stock-based compensation which increased by $1,585,888, $595,741, and $1,048,070, respectively.

Payroll and related expenses increased from $1,991,616 for the year ended December 31, 2021 to $3,577,504 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increases resulted from the expansion of operations in 2022 and preparation for continued growth moving forward.

Professional fees increased from $494,540 for the year ended December 31, 2021 to $1,090,281 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increases resulted from the use of contractors to facilitate the expansion of operations in 2022 as well as increased legal fees as the Company prepared for a potential acquisition.

Stock-based compensation increased from approximately $153,206 for the year ended December 31, 2021 to approximately $1,201,276 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increases resulted in an increase in the value of the Company’s equity combined with increased issuances to incentivize exceptional performance as the Company experienced growth.

Management expects operating expenses to continue to increase as the Company further expands operations and meets their regulatory obligations.

Non-Operating Items

Net non-operating expenses totaled $600,136 and $182,905 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase of $417,231, or approximately 228%, was driven primarily by interest expenses which totaled $638,107 for the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $453,369 from the year ended December 31, 2021.

The Company expects other expenses to continue to increase as the Company seeks debt and equity financing to fund the continued expansion of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of liquidity

ZeroNox’s sources of liquidity include cash on hand, cash flow from operations, and external financing through debt and equity issuances.

Use of proceeds from financing activities

ZeroNox plans to use the proceeds from financing activities for research and development, capital expenditures, expansion of operations, and general working capital needs.

Short-term liquidity requirements and solutions

ZeroNox’s short-term liquidity requirements include funding daily operational expenses, meeting payroll obligations, and maintaining inventory levels. The company will meet these requirements through cash on hand, cash flow from operations, and short-term credit facilities, if necessary.

229

Table of Contents

Long-term liquidity requirements and solutions

ZeroNox’s long-term liquidity requirements include investments in research and development, facility expansion, equipment purchases, and potential acquisitions. The company plans to meet these requirements through a combination of operating cash flows, long-term debt financing, and equity issuances, as needed.

Statement of Cash Flows

The following table provides a summary of ZeroNox’s cash flow data for the periods indicated:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2022	2021
Cash flows from operating activities:	(4,907,201)	(4,055,351)
Cash flows from investing activities:	(127,290)	(219,095)
Cash flows from financing activities:	4,735,601	4,467,459

Cash flows from operating activities:

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in operating activities amounted to $4,907,201, a 21% increase from net cash used in operating activities of $4,055,351 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase of $851,850 can be attributed to the increase in gross profit being offset by more significant increases in operating expenses, primarily driven by an increase in compensation expenses as the Company prepares for significant expansion. The Company expects operating activities to continue to be a net outflow as operations continue to expand.

Cash flows from investing activities

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities amounted to $127,290, a 42% decrease from net cash used in investing activities of approximately $219,095 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease of $91,805 can be attributed to the purchase of property and equipment during 2021. The Company expects to incur future cash outflows from the purchase of property and equipment to facilitate the expansion of operations.

Cash flows from financing activities

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities amounted to $4,735,601, a 6% increase from net cash provided by financing activities of $4,467,459 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase of $268,142 can be attributed to an increase in debt and equity financing outpacing debt repayments during 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company raised capital through debt and equity totaling $7,650,000 and $1,314,487, respectively, and made debt repayments totaling $4,185,615. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company raised capital through debt and equity totaling $3,398,605 and $2,676,644, respectively, and made debt repayments totaling $1,607,790. The Company expects debt and equity inflows to outpace outflows as the Company continues its expansion and utilizes cash in operating and investing activities.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Lease Obligations and Purchase Option

ZeroNox’s current lease for its operating facility will expire on August 31, 2023. As part of the lease agreement, the company is committed to fulfilling its financial and legal obligations to the lessor until the lease expires.

ZeroNox has the option to purchase the leased building, the land, and three adjacent parcels for $2,700,000. The Company plans to exercise this option before the lease term ends to support its anticipated accelerated growth. In this arrangement, the owner would carry the debt, effectively transforming ZeroNox’s rent payment into a mortgage payment. The transaction requires a modest down payment.

By fulfilling its lease obligations and potentially exercising the purchase option, ZeroNox aims to secure its operational facilities and bolster its long-term growth plans. These commitments will impact the company’s cash flow and financial position, necessitating prudent planning and management to ensure sufficient resources are available for meeting these obligations while continuing to invest in business expansion and product development.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Since the date of our incorporation, we have not engaged in any off balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires the company’s management to make certain judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience, current conditions, and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates include the following:

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and its wholly owned subsidiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements principally include assessing the collectability of accounts receivable, inventory obsolescence, useful lives and potential impairment of long-lived assets, allowance for warranty reserves and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Accounts Receivable, net

Accounts receivable are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of amounts that will not be collected and for product returns. Management individually reviews all accounts receivable balances and based on assessment of current credit worthiness, estimates the portion, if any, of the balance that will not be collected. Management additionally records an allowance for product returns based on specific terms and conditions included in the customer agreements or based on historical experience and expectations of future returns.

Inventories

Property and Equipment, net

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using a straight-line method with an allowance for estimated residual values.

Depreciation commences in the month the asset is placed in service. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized, while repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Upon the sale or retirement of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the respective accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.

231

Table of Contents

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for indicators of impairment. If there are indicators of impairment and we determine that the asset is not recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows to be received through the asset’s remaining life (or, if earlier, the expected disposal date), we record an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s estimated fair value or net proceeds from expected disposal.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.

The Company follows the guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. In accordance with this guidance, interest costs and related penalties would be calculated, if applicable, related to unrecognized tax benefits. Any interest recorded would be included in interest expense and any penalties recorded would be included in income tax expense.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Revenue Recognition

The Company applies the following five-step model in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, in order to determine the revenue (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contracts; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The Company has only one operating and reporting segment, which generates revenue from selling electric vehicles (i.e., utility terrain vehicles, transport shuttles, forklifts), lithium iron phosphate battery upgrades, electric vehicle conversion kits and from arrangements with OEMs to assist in the design and electric powertrain solutions needed to support their execution in bringing electric vehicles to the market.

Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with the Company’s customer are satisfied which occurs with the transfer of control of the Company’s products. This occurs either upon shipment or delivery of finished goods, depending on whether the contract is Free on Board (“FOB”) destination, or, in other situations such as consignment arrangements, when products are shipped to dealership locations under contractual line of credit agreements, when the customer has accepted the product.

Each customer purchase order or quote sets forth the transaction price for the products and services purchased under the arrangement. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we evaluate whether the stated selling prices for the products or services represent their standalone selling prices. When it is necessary to allocate the transaction price to multiple performance obligations (i.e., for customized solutions unique to a customer’s specifications), management typically uses the expected cost plus a reasonable profit margin to estimate the standalone selling price of each product or service. For standard products and services with observable sales transactions, the observable sales transactions are used to determine the standalone selling price.

232

Table of Contents

To the extent that the transaction price includes variable consideration, such as volume discounts and customer payment penalties, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing the most likely amount method. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. Estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of the Company’s anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available.

Generally full payments are due upon fulfillment of contractual obligations. In certain cases, promissory notes are extended for up to 90 days. Select dealership locations may be offered an in-house line of credit within which electric vehicles can be borrowed against. In such instances, if a vehicle balance is not paid for within six months, interest will begin to accrue monthly. Shipping costs are included in cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, net of freight charges billed to customers.

Warranty Costs

Customers are provided with a manufacturer warranty that assures that the products meet standard specifications and are free of defects. The Company allows customers to purchase a warranty to extend that coverage. Claims incurred under the extended warranty programs are recorded based on open claims and historical experience, which have not been significant.

Deferred Revenue

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and classifies its leases at commencement. Operating leases are presented as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and the corresponding lease liabilities are included in lease liability, current and lease liability, net on the Company’s balance sheets. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation for lease payments in exchange for the ability to use the asset for the duration of the lease term.

The Company has a long-term lease for warehouse/executive office space, which the Company has concluded to be an operating lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized as of the lease commencement date. Operating lease liabilities represent the present value of lease payments not yet paid. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset and are based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or deferred lease payments, initial direct costs, lease incentives, and impairment of operating lease assets as applicable. To determine the present value of the lease payments not yet paid, the Company used the incremental secured borrowing rate for an existing secured loan corresponding to the maturities of the lease. The lease term may include options to extend when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company recognizes operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company has elected to exclude short-term leases having initial terms of 12 months or less.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company grants its employees, officers, directors, and consultants and advisors to the Company stock-based compensation awards under the 2017 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the “Plan”). The Company measures the cost of all stock-based transactions at fair value at the grant date and recognizes the associated stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the option vesting period, in accordance with ASC 718, Stock-Compensation. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options, and the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures of awards as they occur and reverse previously unrecognized compensation cost for portions of the award that are unvested at the time of forfeiture.

Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity

The Company relies on the guidance provided by ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC Topic 480”), to classify certain redeemable and/or convertible instruments. The Company first determines whether a financial instrument should be

233

Table of Contents

classified as a liability. The Company will determine the liability classification if the financial instrument is mandatorily redeemable, or if the financial instrument, other than outstanding shares, embodies a conditional obligation that the Company must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares.

Once the Company determines that a financial instrument should not be classified as a liability, the Company determines whether the financial instrument should be presented between the liability section and the equity section of the balance sheet (“temporary equity”). The Company will determine temporary equity classification if the redemption of the financial instrument is outside the control of the Company (i.e., at the option of the holder). Otherwise, the Company accounts for the financial instrument as permanent equity.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk refers to the potential impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on the company’s financial performance. While the company’s exposure to interest rate risk is currently limited, we monitor the interest rate environment to assess the potential impact on our debt financing costs. Any significant changes in interest rates may affect the cost of our debt financing and could potentially impact our financial performance and cash flows.

Foreign Currency Risk

The company’s foreign currency risk is currently minimal, as we only deal in USD. This mitigates our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that could otherwise have an impact on our financial performance. However, as we expand our operations globally or engage in transactions involving other currencies, we may need to implement strategies to manage and mitigate foreign currency risk. This could include using currency hedging instruments or diversifying our currency exposure.

Other Elements of Compensation

Retirement Savings and Health and Welfare Benefits

We maintain a 401(k) retirement savings plan for our employees, including our named executive officers, who satisfy certain eligibility requirements. Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the same terms as other full-time employees. We believe that providing a vehicle for tax-deferred retirement savings through our 401(k) plan adds to the overall desirability of our executive compensation package and further incentivizes our employees, including our named executive officers, in accordance with our compensation policies.

All of ZeroNox’s full-time employees, including our named executive officers, who have been working for ZeroNox for at least six months are eligible to participate in our group health insurance. We also provide various other employee benefits, including but not limited to, unemployment insurance, sick leave, paid vacation time, and others.

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits

We determine perquisites on a case-by-case basis and will provide a perquisite to a named executive officer when we believe it is necessary to attract or retain the named executive officer. We did not provide any perquisites or personal benefits to our named executive officers not otherwise made available to our other employees in 2022 (excluding the health plan premiums as disclosed in the above 2022 Summary Compensation Table).

BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES

The following table sets forth information regarding (i) the beneficial ownership of G4G ordinary shares as of March 31, 2023 and (ii) the expected beneficial ownership of shares of New ZeroNox common stock immediately following consummation of the Business Combination (the “Ownership Date”) (assuming a “no redemption” scenario and assuming a “maximum redemption” scenario as described below) by:

●

each person who is known to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of G4G ordinary shares and is expected to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of shares of New ZeroNox common stock post-Business Combination;

●

each of G4G’s current executive officers and directors;

●

each person who will become an executive officer or director of New ZeroNox post-Business Combination; and

●

all executive officers and directors of G4G as a group pre-Business Combination, and all executive officers and directors of New ZeroNox post-Business Combination.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the Ownership Date.

The beneficial ownership of G4G ordinary shares pre-Business Combination is based on 32,425,000 G4G ordinary shares, issued and outstanding as of the Ownership Date, which includes an aggregate of (i) 26,100,000 G4G Class A ordinary shares and (ii) 6,325,000 Class B ordinary shares outstanding as of such date.

The expected beneficial ownership of shares of New ZeroNox common stock post-Business Combination assumes two scenarios:

(i)

a “no redemption” scenario where (i) no public shareholders exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination and (ii) New ZeroNox issues 54,134,375 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, which, in the case of ZeroNox Options, will be shares underlying awards based on New ZeroNox common stock to ZeroNox stockholders as the Aggregate Merger Consideration pursuant to the Merger Agreement; and

(ii)

a “maximum redemption” scenario where (i) 21,910,100 public shares of G4G are redeemed for their pro rata share of the funds in G4G’s trust account in connection with the Business Combination and (ii) New ZeroNox issues 31,224,275 shares of New ZeroNox common stock, which, in the case of ZeroNox Options, will be shares underlying awards based on New ZeroNox common stock to ZeroNox stockholders as the Aggregate Merger Consideration pursuant to the Merger Agreement. This scenario gives effect to G4G’s public share redemptions of 21,910,100 shares for aggregate redemption payments of approximately $222.5 million as well as the forfeiture of 1,000,000 Sponsor Class B common shares as of the Closing Date as agreed to in the Sponsor Support Agreement as a result of redemptions of Class A common shares exceeding 95% of the Class A common shares outstanding

We estimate that there would be 54,134,375 shares of New ZeroNox common stock issued and outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination in the “no redemption” scenario, and 31,224,275 shares of New ZeroNox common stock issued and outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination in the “maximum redemption” scenario. If the actual facts are different from the foregoing assumptions, ownership figures in the combined company and the columns under Post-Business Combination in the table that follows will be different.

The following table does not reflect record of beneficial ownership of any shares of New ZeroNox common stock issuable upon exercise of public warrants or private placement warrants, as such securities are not exercisable or convertible within 60 days of the Ownership Date.

The shares reported in the table above are held in the name of the Sponsor. Yana Watson Kakar, Rahul Kakar and David Birnbaum are the managing members of the Sponsor. Each managing member has one vote, and the approval of two of three managing members is required to approve an action by G4G Sponsor LLC. Under the so-called “rule of three,” if voting and dispositive decisions regarding an entity’s securities are made by two or more individuals, and a voting and dispositive decision requires the approval of a majority of those individuals, then none of the individuals is deemed a beneficial owner of the entity’s securities. This is the situation with regard to G4G Sponsor LLC. Based upon the foregoing analysis, no individual managing members of G4G Sponsor LLC exercises voting or dispositive control over any of the securities held by G4G Sponsor LLC, even those in which he or she directly holds a pecuniary interest. Accordingly, none of them will be deemed to have or share beneficial ownership of such shares. Additionally, each of our officers, directors and strategic advisors is, directly or indirectly, a member of the Sponsor or have direct or indirect economic interests in the Sponsor, and each of them disclaims any beneficial ownership of any shares held by the Sponsor except to the extent of his or her ultimate pecuniary interest. Further, two institutional investors (the “Anchor Investors”) have subscribed to purchase membership interests in the Sponsor. These Anchor Investors have collectively indicated an interest in purchasing approximately 19% of the units in the initial public offering. However, because indications of interest are not binding agreements or commitments to purchase, the Anchor Investors may determine not to purchase any such units, or to purchase fewer units than they have indicated an interest in purchasing. Furthermore, we are not under any obligation to sell any such units to the Anchor Investors. These Anchor Investors have committed to provide $4,000,000 of upfront capital to G4G Sponsor LLC in return for a minority economic ownership interest. Such Anchor Investors will not receive voting or governance rights.

COMPARISON OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS

G4G is an exempted company incorporated under the Cayman Islands Companies Act. The Cayman Islands Companies Act and G4G’s Cayman Constitutional Documents govern the rights of its shareholders. The Cayman Islands Companies Act differs in some material respects from laws generally applicable to United States corporations and their stockholders. In addition, the Cayman Constitutional Documents will differ in certain material respects from the Proposed Organizational Documents. As a result, when you become a stockholder of New ZeroNox, your rights will differ in some regards as compared to when you were a shareholder of G4G.

Below is a summary chart outlining important similarities and differences in the corporate governance and stockholder/shareholder rights associated with each of G4G and New ZeroNox according to applicable law or the organizational documents of G4G and New ZeroNox.

This summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the Cayman Constitutional Documents of G4G, attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex H, the complete text of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D and the complete text of the Proposed Bylaws, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex E. You should review each of the Proposed Organizational Documents, as well as the Delaware corporate law and corporate laws of the Cayman Islands, including the Cayman Islands Companies Act, to understand how these laws apply to New ZeroNox and G4G, respectively.

	Delaware	Cayman Islands

Stockholder/Shareholder Approval of Business Combinations	Mergers generally require approval of a majority of all outstanding shares. Mergers in which less than 20% of the acquirer’s stock is issued generally do not require acquirer stockholder approval. Mergers in which one corporation owns 90% or more of a second corporation may be completed without the vote of the second corporation’s board of directors or stockholders.	Mergers require a special resolution, and any other authorization as may be specified in the relevant articles of association. Parties holding certain security interests in the constituent companies must also consent. All mergers (other than parent/subsidiary mergers) require shareholder approval — there is no exception for smaller mergers. Where a bidder has acquired 90% or more of the shares in a Cayman Islands company, it can compel the acquisition of the shares of the remaining shareholders and thereby become the sole shareholder. A Cayman Islands company may also be acquired through a “scheme of arrangement” sanctioned by a Cayman Islands court and approved by 75% in value of shareholders in attendance and voting at a shareholders’ meeting.
Stockholder/Shareholder Votes for Routine Matters	Generally, approval of routine corporate matters that are put to a stockholder vote require the affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter.	Under the Cayman Islands Companies Act and G4G’s Cayman Constitutional Documents, routine corporate matters may be approved by an ordinary resolution (being a resolution passed by an affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at the relevant meeting).
Appraisal or Dissenters’ Rights	Generally, a stockholder of a publicly traded corporation does not have appraisal rights in connection with a merger	Minority shareholders that dissent from a merger are entitled to be paid the fair market value of their shares, which if necessary may ultimately be determined by the court.

Inspection of Books and Records	Any stockholder may inspect the corporation’s books and records for a proper purpose during the usual hours for business.	Shareholders generally do not have any rights to inspect or obtain copies of the register of shareholders or other corporate records of a company.
Stockholder/Shareholder Lawsuits	A stockholder may bring a derivative suit subject to procedural requirements (including adopting Delaware as the exclusive forum as per Organizational Documents Proposal C).	In the Cayman Islands, the decision to institute proceedings on behalf of a company is generally taken by the company’s board of directors. A shareholder may be entitled to bring a derivative action on behalf of the company, but only in certain limited circumstances.
Fiduciary Duties of Directors	Directors must exercise a duty of care and duty of loyalty and good faith to the company and its stockholders.	A director owes fiduciary duties to a company, including to exercise loyalty, honesty and good faith to the company as a whole.
		In addition to fiduciary duties, directors of G4G owe a duty of care, diligence and skill.
		Such duties are owed to the company but may be owed directly to creditors or shareholders in certain limited circumstances.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers	A corporation is generally permitted to indemnify its directors and officers acting in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation.	A Cayman Islands company generally may indemnify its directors or officers except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against willful default, willful neglect or actual fraud.
Limited Liability of Directors	Permits limiting or eliminating the monetary liability of a director to a corporation or its stockholders, except with regard to breaches of duty of loyalty, intentional misconduct, unlawful repurchases or dividends, or improper personal benefit.	Liability of directors may be limited, except to the extent any such limitation may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as with regard to their own willful default, willful neglect, or actual fraud.

DESCRIPTION OF NEW ZERONOX SECURITIES

The following summary of certain provisions of New ZeroNox securities does not purport to be complete and is subject to the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation, the Proposed Bylaws and the provisions of applicable law. Copies of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and the Proposed Bylaws are attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D and Annex E, respectively.

Authorized Capitalization

General

The total amount of New ZeroNox’s authorized capital stock consists of shares of New ZeroNox common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and shares of New ZeroNox preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. New ZeroNox expects to have approximately shares of New ZeroNox common stock outstanding immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination, excluding contingent shares and assuming no public shareholders exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.

The following summary describes all material provisions of New ZeroNox’s capital stock. New ZeroNox urges you to read the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and the Proposed Bylaws (copies of which are attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D and Annex E, respectively).

Preferred Stock

The Board of New ZeroNox has authority to issue shares of New ZeroNox preferred stock in one or more series, to fix for each such series such voting powers, designations, preferences, qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences for the issue of such series all to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. The issuance of New ZeroNox preferred stock could have the effect of decreasing the trading price of New ZeroNox’s common stock, restricting dividends on New ZeroNox’s capital stock, diluting the voting power of New ZeroNox’s common stock, impairing the liquidation rights of New ZeroNox’s capital stock, or delaying or preventing a change in control of New ZeroNox.

Common Stock

New ZeroNox common stock is not entitled to preemptive or other similar subscription rights to purchase any of New ZeroNox’s securities. New ZeroNox common stock is neither convertible nor redeemable. Unless New ZeroNox’s board of directors determines otherwise, New ZeroNox will issue all of New ZeroNox’s capital stock in uncertificated form.

Voting Rights

Each holder of New ZeroNox common stock is entitled to one vote per share on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders, except as provided by the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and outlined below. The Proposed Bylaws provide that the holders of a majority of the capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business. When a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast is required to take action, unless otherwise specified by law, the Proposed Bylaws or the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation, and except for the election of directors, which is determined by a plurality vote. There are no cumulative voting rights. In addition, the affirmative vote of holders of 66²/₃% of the voting power of all of the then outstanding voting stock will be required to take certain actions, including amending certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, such as the provisions relating to amending our amended and restated bylaws, the classified board and director liability.

Dividend Rights

Each holder of shares of New ZeroNox’s capital stock is entitled to the payment of dividends and other distributions as may be declared by the Board from time to time out of New ZeroNox’s assets or funds legally available for dividends or other distributions. These rights are subject to the preferential rights of the holders of New ZeroNox preferred stock, if any, and any contractual limitations on New ZeroNox’s ability to declare and pay dividends.

252

Table of Contents

Other Rights

Each holder of New ZeroNox common stock is subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any series of New ZeroNox preferred stock that New ZeroNox may designate and issue in the future.

Liquidation Rights

If New ZeroNox is involved in voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of New ZeroNox’s affairs, or a similar event, each holder of New ZeroNox common stock will participate pro rata in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of New ZeroNox preferred stock, if any, then outstanding.

Anti-takeover Effects of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and the Proposed Bylaws

The Proposed Certificate of Incorporation and the Proposed Bylaws contain provisions that may delay, defer or discourage another party from acquiring control of New ZeroNox. New ZeroNox expects that these provisions, which are summarized below, will discourage coercive takeover practices or inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of New ZeroNox to first negotiate with the Board, which New ZeroNox believes may result in an improvement of the terms of any such acquisition in favor of New ZeroNox’s stockholders. However, they also give the Board the power to discourage mergers that some stockholders may favor.

Special Meetings of Stockholders

The Proposed Certificate of Incorporation provides that a special meeting of stockholders may be called by the (a) the Chairperson of the Board, (b) the Board, (c) the Chief Executive Officer of New ZeroNox or (d) the President of New ZeroNox, provided that such special meeting may be postponed, rescheduled or cancelled by the Board or other person calling the meeting.

Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals

The Proposed Bylaws provide for advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors.

Removal of Directors

The Board of Directors or any individual director may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of New ZeroNox entitled to vote at an election of directors.

Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute

Section 203 of the DGCL provides that if a person acquires 15% or more of the voting stock of a Delaware corporation, such person becomes an “interested stockholder” and may not engage in certain “business combinations” with such corporation for a period of three years from the time such person acquired 15% or more of such corporation’s voting stock, unless: (1) the board of directors of such corporation approves the acquisition of stock or the merger transaction before the time that the person becomes an interested stockholder, (2) the interested stockholder owns at least 85% of the outstanding voting stock of such corporation at the time the merger transaction commences (excluding voting stock owned by directors who are also officers and certain employee stock plans), or (3) the merger transaction is approved by the board of directors and at a meeting of stockholders, not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of 2/3 of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder. A Delaware corporation may elect in its certificate of incorporation or bylaws not to be governed by this particular Delaware law. Under the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation, New ZeroNox opted out of Section 203 of the DGCL, but will provide substantially similar restrictions regarding takeovers by interested stockholders. Under Article X of the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation, for so long as New ZeroNox’s securities are registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), New ZeroNox will not be able to engage in a business combination with any “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that a person becomes an “interested stockholder” (as defined in the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation), unless: (a) before such stockholder becomes an “interested stockholder,” the board of directors approves either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; (b) upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the outstanding voting stock of New ZeroNox at the time of the transaction,

253

Table of Contents

excluding for purposes of determining the outstanding voting stock (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) those shares owned by (i) persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or (c) at the time or after the stockholder became an interested stockholder, the business combination is approved by board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the outstanding voting stock of New ZeroNox which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

The Proposed Certificate of Incorporation provides that New ZeroNox will indemnify New ZeroNox’s directors to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law. New ZeroNox expects to enter into agreements to indemnify New ZeroNox’s directors, executive officers and other employees as determined by the Board. Under the Proposed Bylaws, New ZeroNox is required to indemnify each of New ZeroNox’s directors and officers if the basis of the indemnitee’s involvement was by reason of the fact that the indemnitee is or was a director or officer of New ZeroNox or was serving at New ZeroNox’s request as a director, officer, employee or agent for another entity. New ZeroNox must indemnify New ZeroNox’s officers and directors against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of New ZeroNox, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. The Proposed Bylaws also require New ZeroNox to advance expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person will repay any such advance if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification by New ZeroNox. Any claims for indemnification by New ZeroNox’s directors and officers may reduce New ZeroNox’s available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against New ZeroNox and may reduce the amount of money available to New ZeroNox.

Exclusive Jurisdiction of Certain Actions

The Proposed Certificate of Incorporation provides that: (i) unless New ZeroNox consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware or other state courts of the State of Delaware) and any appellate court thereof will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for: (A) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of New ZeroNox, (B) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or stockholder of New ZeroNox to New ZeroNox or to New ZeroNox’s stockholders, (C) any action arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, New ZeroNox’s bylaws or New ZeroNox’s certificate of incorporation (as either may be amended from time to time), or as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or (D) any action asserting a claim against New ZeroNox or any current or former director, officer or stockholder governed by the internal affairs doctrine; (ii) unless New ZeroNox consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act; (iii) notwithstanding the foregoing, the forum selection provisions will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts of the United States have exclusive jurisdiction; and (iv) any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any security of New ZeroNox will be deemed to have notice of and consented to these provisions.

Although the Proposed Certificate of Incorporation contains the forum selection provisions described above, it is possible that a court could find that such provisions are inapplicable for a particular claim or action or that such provisions are unenforceable. For example, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such forum selection provisions as written in connection with claims arising under the Securities Act.

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent for New ZeroNox common stock will be Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

SECURITIES ACT RESTRICTIONS ON RESALE OF NEW ZERONOX SECURITIES

Pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), a person who has beneficially owned restricted New ZeroNox common stock or New ZeroNox warrants for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been an affiliate of New ZeroNox at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) New ZeroNox is subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and have filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months (or such shorter period as New ZeroNox was required to file reports) preceding the sale.

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted New ZeroNox common stock shares or New ZeroNox warrants for at least six months but who are affiliates of New ZeroNox at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

●

1% of the total number of New ZeroNox common stock then outstanding; or

●

the average weekly reported trading volume of New ZeroNox’s common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales by affiliates of New ZeroNox under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about New ZeroNox.

Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

●

the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

●

the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

●

the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and

●

at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

As a result, the Sponsor may be able to sell its Founder Shares and private placement warrants, as applicable, pursuant to Rule 144 without registration one year after G4G has completed G4G’s initial business combination.

G4G anticipates that following the consummation of the Business Combination, New ZeroNox will no longer be a shell company, and so, once the conditions set forth in the exceptions listed above are satisfied, Rule 144 will become available for the resale of the above noted restricted securities.

The Merger Agreement contemplates that, at the Closing, New ZeroNox, the Sponsor, and certain equityholders of ZeroNox, and certain of their respective affiliates, as applicable, will enter into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which New ZeroNox will agree to register for resale, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, certain shares of New ZeroNox common stock and other equity securities of New ZeroNox that are held by the parties thereto from time to time. The Registration Rights Agreement contemplates that, at the Closing, the Lock-up Parties (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) will agree not to transfer, assign or sell the Lock-up Shares (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) until the date that is 360 days after the Closing, other than to permitted transferees. See Annex G for a copy of the Registration Rights Agreement.

New ZeroNox’s Proposed Bylaws establish an advance notice procedure for stockholders who wish to present a proposal before an annual meeting of stockholders.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITY

G4G is a Cayman Islands exempted company. If G4G does not change its jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to Delaware by effecting the Domestication, you may have difficulty serving legal process within the United States upon G4G. You may also have difficulty enforcing, both in and outside the United States, judgments you may obtain in U.S. courts against G4G in any action, including actions based upon the civil liability provisions of U.S. federal or state securities laws. Furthermore, there is doubt that the courts of the Cayman Islands would enter judgments in original actions brought in those courts predicated on U.S. federal or state securities laws. However, G4G may be served with process in the United States with respect to actions against G4G arising out of or in connection with violation of U.S. federal securities laws relating to offers and sales of G4G’s securities by serving G4G’s U.S. agent irrevocably appointed for that purpose.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from July 2, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from July 2, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, if the Company is unable complete a business combination by June 14, 2023 then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

/s/ WithumSmith+Brown, PC

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2021.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on July 2, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”).

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity from July 2, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2022 relates to the Company’s search for a prospective initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of unrealized gains and interest and dividend income on investments held in a trust account from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering (as defined below). The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) was declared effective on December 9, 2021. On December 14, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 25,300,000 units, (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”) including 3,300,000 Units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option in full, generating gross proceeds of $253,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 800,000 units (the “private placement units”) at a price of $10.00 per private placement unit in a private placement to G4G Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), including 66,000 private placement units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option in full, generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000, which is described in Note 4.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on December 14, 2021, an amount of $253,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the private placement units was placed in a trust account (the “trust account”), and was invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with maturities of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds held in the trust account, as described below.

Transaction costs related to the issuances described above amounted to $14,534,731, consisting of $5,060,000 of cash underwriting fees, $8,855,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $619,731 of other offering costs.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of private placement units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the trust account (excluding the deferred underwriting fees and taxes payable on income earned on the trust account) at the time of the signing of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, management has agreed that an amount equal to at least $10.00 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering, including the a portion of the proceeds of the private placement units, will be held in the trust account, located in the United States, and invested only in U.S. government securities within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act having maturities of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the trust account as described below.

F-7

Table of Contents

The Company will provide the holders of its Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) sold in the Initial Public Offering, with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) without a shareholder vote by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a proposed Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in the discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would require the Company to seek shareholder approval under applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the trust account (initially $10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants. The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”) provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), are restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Company’s Sponsor, executive officers and directors (the “Initial Shareholders”) have agreed that they will not propose any amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) that would modify the substance or timing of the obligation to provide holders of the Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (or within 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering at the election of the Company, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the deposit of a total of $2,530,000 ($0.10 per Unit) into the trust account, or as extended by the Company’s shareholders in accordance with the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association) (the “Combination Period”) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of the Class A ordinary shares, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment.

If the Company has not completed the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to the Company to pay the income taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

The underwriters have agreed to waive their right to their deferred underwriting fees held in the trust account in the event the Company does not consummate an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the trust account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares.

Table of Contents

In order to protect the amounts held in the trust account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third-party for services rendered or products sold to the Company (other than the independent registered public accounting firm), or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the trust account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account if less than $10.00 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay the tax obligations, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third-party or prospective target business that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the trust account nor will it apply to any claims under the indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third-party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the trust account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the trust account.

Proposed ZeroNox Business Combination

Merger Agreement

The Company is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. On March 7, 2023, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with ZeroNox, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“ZeroNox”), and the G4G Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”).

(ii)as a result of the Merger, among other things, all outstanding shares of ZeroNox common stock will be canceled in exchange for the right to receive, in the aggregate, a number of shares of G4G common stock (as defined below) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $225,000,000 by (y) $10.00; and

(iii)upon the effective time of the Domestication (as defined below), the Company will immediately be renamed “ZeroNox Holdings, Inc.”

(i)the dollar volume-weighted average price of G4G common stock becoming greater than or equal to $12.50 for any ten (10) trading days within a period of twenty (20) consecutive trading days at any time following the Closing until December 31, 2025;

(ii)the dollar volume-weighted average price of G4G common stock becoming greater than or equal to $15.00 for any ten (10) trading days within a period of twenty (20) consecutive trading days at any time following the Closing until December 31, 2026; and

The board of directors of the Company has unanimously (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated thereby and (ii) resolved to recommend approval of the Merger Agreement and related matters by the shareholders of the Company.

The Domestication

Prior to the Closing, subject to the approval of the Company’s shareholders, and in accordance with the DGCL, the Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “CICA”) and the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (as may be amended from time to time, the “Cayman Constitutional Documents”), the Company will effect a deregistration under Part XII of the CICA and a domestication under Section 388 of the DGCL (by means of filing a certificate of domestication with the Secretary of State of Delaware), pursuant to which the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation will be changed from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”).

In connection with the Domestication, (i) each of the then issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“G4G Class A Common Shares”), will convert automatically into one share of common stock, par value $0.0001, of the Company (after its Domestication) (the “Domesticated G4G Common Stock”), (ii) each of the then issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“G4G Class B Common Shares”), will convert automatically into one share of Domesticated G4G Common Stock, (iii) each then issued and outstanding warrant of the Company will convert automatically into one warrant to acquire one share of Domesticated G4G Common Stock (“Domesticated G4G Warrant”), pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, dated December 9, 2021, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, (iv) each then issued and outstanding unit of the Company will convert automatically into one share of Domesticated G4G Common Stock, one-half of one Domesticated G4G Warrant and one Domesticated G4G Right (as defined below), and (v) each then issued and outstanding right of the Company entitling the holder thereof to receive one-sixteenth (1/16) of one G4G Class A Common Share upon the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination shall convert automatically into one right to acquire one-sixteenth of one share of Domesticated G4G Common Stock upon the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination, pursuant to the terms of the Rights Agreement, dated as of December 9, 2021, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as rights agent (a “Domesticated G4G Right”).

Another condition to ZeroNox’s obligations to consummate the Merger is that the Domestication has been completed. Further, another condition to the Company’s obligations to consummate the Merger is the absence of a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) on ZeroNox.

Sponsor Support Agreement

On March 7, 2023, the Company also entered into a Sponsor Support Agreement (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”) by and among ZeroNox, the Company, G4G Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor Holdco”), and the other parties thereto (collectively with the Sponsor Holdco, the “Sponsors”), pursuant to which each Sponsor agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Sponsor Support Agreement.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.

This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Table of Contents

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statement, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company had $815,643 and $1,737,511 in cash as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Investments Held in Trust Account

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the assets held in the trust account were held in U.S. Treasury Securities, which are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities will be reported in the statements of operations. Interest and dividend income on these securities is included in interest and dividend income on investments held in trust account in the accompanying statements of operations. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the investments held in the trust account totaled $256,918,610 and $252,994,944, respectively.

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified in temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Public Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Public Shares are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheets.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit. The redemption value of the redeemable common shares as of December 31, 2022 increased as the income earned on the trust account exceeds the Company’s expected tax obligations plus up to $100,000 to pay dissolution expenses) (see Note 1). As such, the Company recorded an increase in the carrying amount of the redeemable ordinary shares of $3,818,611 as of December 31, 2022.

Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of ASC Topic 340, Other Assets and Deferred Costs, and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A — Expenses of Offering. Offering costs consist of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Initial Public Offering date that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $14,534,731, consisting of $5,060,000 of cash underwriting fees, $8,855,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $619,731 of other offering costs. As such, the Company recorded $13,303,666 of offering costs as a reduction of temporary equity in connection with the Public Shares and $1,231,065 of offering costs as a reduction of permanent equity in connection with the public warrants (as defined in Note 3), Rights (as defined in Note 3), Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units (as defined in Note 4), and private placement warrants underlying the private placement units (as defined in Note 4).

Income Taxes

The Company follows the guidance of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes, which prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company has been subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s management does not currently have and does not expect any unrecognized tax benefits to accrue over the next twelve months.

Net Income (Loss) per Ordinary Share

Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from net income (loss) per share as the redemption value approximates fair value. Therefore, the earnings per share calculation allocates income and losses shared pro rata between Class A and Class B ordinary shares. As a result, the calculated net income (loss) per share is the same for Class A and Class B ordinary shares. The Company has not considered the effect of the public warrants, private placement warrants and Rights to purchase an aggregate of 14,631,250 shares in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share, since the exercise of the warrants and Rights is contingent upon the occurrence of future events.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage of $250,000. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company applies ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The carrying amounts reflected in the balance sheets for current assets and current liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

Level 1 — Assets and liabilities with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges. Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities.

See Note 7 for additional information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Table of Contents

Warrant Classification

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding. For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. The public warrants and private placement warrants are equity classified.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the pandemic could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations, and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Additionally, as a result of the military action commenced in February 2022 by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Going Concern

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $815,643 in cash held outside of the trust account and a working capital surplus of $635,473. The Company has incurred and expects to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update 2014-15, Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, management has determined that if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by June 14, 2023 (which period can be extended to (i) September 14, 2023 at the election of the Company, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the deposit of a total of $2,530,000 ($0.10 per Unit) or (ii) any extended period of time that the Company may have to consummate a Business Combination as a result of an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association), then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The Company’s balance of cash held outside of the trust account and working capital surplus as of December 31, 2022, in conjunction with the date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern one year from the date that these financial statements are issued. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to complete a Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date or obtain approval for an extension.

Recent Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on December 9, 2021. On December 14, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 25,300,000 Units, including 3,300,000 Units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option in full, generating gross proceeds of $253,000,000. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, one right (“Right”) and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“public warrant”). Each Right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-sixteenth (1/16) of one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation a Business Combination (see Note 6). Each whole public warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 6).

NOTE 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On July 15, 2021, the Sponsor paid $25,000 to cover certain offering costs on behalf of the Company in exchange for issuance of 6,325,000 Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”).

The Initial Shareholders have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell (i) any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of (A) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination and (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Private Placement Units

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 800,000 private placement units at a price of $10.00 per private placement unit in a private placement to the Sponsor, including 66,000 private placement units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option in full, generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000. Each private placement unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one warrant (“private placement warrant”). The private placement warrants are identical to the public warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the private placement warrants (i) will not be redeemable by the Company and (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis. If the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the private placement units held in the trust account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the private placement units will expire worthless (see Note 6).

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company entered into an agreement, commencing on December 10, 2021, to pay the Sponsor a total of up to $25,000 per month for certain office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative support services. Upon the completion of an initial Business Combination, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. The Company incurred and paid $300,000 and $16,935 in expenses under this agreement for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from July 2, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, respectively.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes an initial Business Combination, the Company may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the trust account released to the Company. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into private placement units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per Unit at the option of the lender. The Units would be identical to the private placement units. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement

The holders of the Founder Shares, private placement units and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the private placement warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the initial Business Combination. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lockup period, which occurs (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, as described in Note 4, and (ii) in the case of the private placement units, private placement warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, and the respective Class A ordinary shares underlying such warrants, 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 3,300,000 Units at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $33,000,000.

The underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of $0.20 per Unit, or $5,060,000 in the aggregate, upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, $0.35 per Unit, or $8,855,000 in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriters for deferred underwriting fees. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the trust account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

NOTE 6. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

Preference shares — The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 preference shares with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no preference shares issued or outstanding.

Class A ordinary shares — The Company is authorized to issue 479,000,000 Class A ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were 26,100,000 Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding, including 25,300,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption.

Class B ordinary shares — The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were 6,325,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Ordinary shareholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Except as described below, holders of Class A ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders.

The Founder Shares are designated as Class B ordinary shares and will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares, which such Class A ordinary shares delivered upon conversion will not have any redemption rights or be entitled to liquidating distributions if the Company does not consummate an initial Business Combination, at the time of the initial Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holders thereof at a ratio such that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of (i) the total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding (excluding the Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units) upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities (as defined herein) or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any private placement units and Business Combinations issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates or any member of the management team upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. Any conversion of Class B ordinary shares described herein will take effect as a compulsory redemption of

F-18

Table of Contents

Class B ordinary shares and an issuance of Class A ordinary shares as a matter of Cayman Islands law. In no event will the Class B ordinary shares convert into Class A ordinary shares at a rate of less than one to one.

Warrants — As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were 12,650,000 public warrants and 400,000 private placement warrants outstanding. public warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the public warrants. The public warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of an initial Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering; provided in each case that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the public warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their public warrants on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act). The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of an initial Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the public warrants. The Company will use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the public warrants in accordance with the provisions of the public warrant agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company’s ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under the Securities Act, the Company, at its option, may require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement. The public warrants will expire five years after the completion of an initial Business Combination or earlier upon the Company’s redemption or liquidation.

The Company may redeem the public warrants

●

in whole and not in part;

●

at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

●

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder;

●

if, and only if, the last reported closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and

●

if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying such warrants at the time of redemption and a current prospectus relating to those ordinary shares is available throughout the 30-day trading period referred to above.

If the Company calls the public warrants for redemption as described above, the Company will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the public warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.”

The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of shares of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the trust account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the trust account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

The private placement warrants are identical to the public warrants, except that the private placement warrants and the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of an initial Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the private placement warrants will be non-redeemable and will be exercisable at the election of the holder on a “cashless basis.”

Neither the private placement warrants nor public warrants contain any provisions that change dependent upon the characteristics of the holder of the warrant.

F-19

Table of Contents

Rights — Each Right represents the right to receive one-sixteenth (1/16) of one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination, so each holder of 16 Rights will receive one Class A ordinary share upon consummation of the initial Business Combination, whether or not the Company will be the surviving entity and even if the holder of such Right redeemed all Class A ordinary shares held in connection with the initial Business Combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion of any Rights, so holders must hold Rights in denominations of 16 in order to receive a Class A ordinary share at the closing of the initial Business Combination. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of Rights in order to receive the additional Class A ordinary shares upon consummation of the initial Business Combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the Unit purchase price paid for by investors in the Initial Public Offering. The shares issuable upon exchange of the Rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of Rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the Class A ordinary shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into Class A ordinary share basis, and each holder of a Right will be required to affirmatively convert their Rights in order to receive the one-sixteenth (1/16) share underlying each Right (without paying any additional consideration) upon consummation of the Business Combination.

If the Company is unable to complete an initial Business Combination within the required time period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the trust account, holders of Rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the trust account with respect to such Rights, and the Rights will expire worthless. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Rights. Accordingly, the Rights may expire worthless.

The Company will not issue any fractional shares upon conversions of the Rights once the Units separate, and no cash will be payable in lieu thereof. As a result, a holder must have 16 Rights in order to receive one Class A ordinary shares at the closing of the initial Business Combination. In the event that any holder would otherwise be entitled to any fractional share upon exchange of Rights, the Company will reserve the option, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to deal with any such fractional entitlement at the relevant time as the Company sees fit.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Zero Nox, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Zero Nox, Inc. (a Wyoming corporation) and Subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Explanatory Paragraph — Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2, the Company has a working capital deficiency, has incurred significant losses and needs to raise additional funds to meet its obligations and sustain its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Organization and Principal Activities

Zero Nox, Inc., (the “Parent”), was incorporated in the state of Wyoming on October 23, 2017. The Parent, together with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Zero Nox, Inc., a California corporation, (the “Subsidiary”), collectively, (the “Company”), is an organization specializing in the development and commercialization of electric powertrain technology and its integration into electric vehicles. The Company’s comprehensive portfolio provides domestic and international clients with products and services to build, improve, and power electric off-highway vehicles. The Company’s products include electric utility terrain vehicles, transport shuttles, forklifts, lithium iron phosphate battery upgrades for existing electric fleets and electric vehicle conversion kits for internal combustion engine fleets. The Company partners with overseas manufacturers to produce electric vehicles and complete final assembly and quality control testing in the United States. The Company’s services include maintenance of sold products and working with original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") in their transition to electric by partnering with their manufacturing teams to design and provide the electric powertrain solutions needed to support their execution in bringing electric vehicles to market.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Principals of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Parent and Subsidiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

Going Concern

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $493,176 in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and has a stockholders’ deficit of $6,298,790 at December 31, 2022. The Company has funded its activities primarily through equity and debt financing and expects to continue to incur net losses and use cash in operations for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months following the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. In efforts to address this uncertainty, the Company has entered into promissory notes with various investors in January and February 2023 to raise $860,000 (see Note 13). However, the Company is dependent on its ability to raise additional funding through equity and/or debt financing to continue operations for the twelve months following the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The Company cannot make any assurances that additional financing will be available to it and, if available, on acceptable terms or at all. As such, management believes substantial doubt exists as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash consists of amounts held in financial institutions and consists of immediately available fund balances. The funds are maintained at stable financial institutions, generally at amounts in excess of federally insured limits. The Company considers all short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. While cash held by financial institutions may at times exceed federally insured limits, the Company believes that no material credit or market risk exposure exists due to the high quality of

the institutions. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts. At December 31, 2022, the Company’s uninsured cash balance was $191,535.

Accounts Receivable, net

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first in, first out method. The Company reviews inventory for obsolete or slow-moving items and writes down such inventory to its net realizable value. During 2022 and 2021, there were nominal write-downs to inventory. Beginning in 2021, freight costs related to inventory acquired are capitalized into the cost of inventory. Inventories, which primarily include unassembled and assembled finished goods as well as spare parts stock, amounted to $1,007,937 and $1,638,619 as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Also included in inventory were capitalized freight costs of $144,504, and $308,918, for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Property and Equipment, net

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using a straight-line method with an allowance for estimated residual values. Rates are determined based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:


Asset Category		Depreciable Life
Warehouse equipment		5 years
Fleet vehicles		5 years

Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for patents in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 350-30, General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. The Company capitalizes patent costs representing legal fees associated with filing patent applications and amortizes them on a straight-line basis. The Company is in the process of evaluating our patents’ estimated useful life and will begin amortizing the patents when they are brought to the market or otherwise commercialized. As of December 31, 2022, the Company capitalized $328,800 which was included within intangible assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates its long lived assets for indicators of impairment. If there are indicators of impairment and we determine that the asset is not recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows to be received through the asset’s remaining life (or, if earlier, the expected disposal date), we record an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s estimated fair value or net proceeds from expected disposal.

There were no indicators of impairment to the Company’s long-lived assets and no impairment charges were recorded during 2022 or 2021.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC 820"), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The valuation hierarchy is composed of three levels. The classification within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels within the valuation hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 - Assets and liabilities with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges. Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 - Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities.

The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and due to related party approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the carrying amounts of the Company’s notes payable and notes payable - related parties approximated its fair value, as the obligation bears interest at rates currently available for debt with similar maturities and collateral requirements.

As of December 31, 2022, the carrying amounts of the Company’s convertible notes approximated their fair value, as the convertible notes were issued in transactions deemed to be arm’s length at an agreed-upon price between the Company and the note holders. Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are required to be recorded at fair value either on a recurring or non-recurring basis. Fair value is determined based on the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction based on market participants.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revenue Recognition

The Company applies the following five-step model in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, in order to determine the revenue (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contracts; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

Warranty Costs

Customers are provided with a manufacturer warranty that assures that the products meet standard specifications and are free of defects. The Company allows customers to purchase an extended warranty. The extended warranty purchased only applies to batteries. Warranty reserves, under the extended warranty programs, are recorded based on open claims and historical experience, which have not been significant. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s warranty reserve amounted to $325,000 and $175,000, respectively, and are included in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Warranty costs were $152,609 and $100,000 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and are included in costs of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred Revenue

Payments received in advance from customers against future product sales, multiple element arrangements and extended warranties are recorded as a current or non-current deferred revenue liability based on the time from the consolidated balance sheets date to the future date of revenue recognition. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, deferred revenue included advances from customers of $1,852,327 and $974,639, respectively, extended warranty costs of $37,771 and $27,178, respectively.

Ending Balance	$	1,980,267	$	1,068,253

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and classifies its leases at commencement. Operating leases are presented as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and the corresponding lease liabilities are included in lease liability, current and lease liability, net on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation for lease payments in exchange for the ability to use the asset for the duration of the lease term.

The Company has elected to exclude short-term leases having initial terms of 12 months or less.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company grants its employees, officers, directors, and consultants and advisors to the Company stock-based compensation awards under the 2017 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the “Plan”). The Company measures the cost of all stock-based transactions at fair value at the grant date and recognizes the associated stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the option vesting period, in accordance with ASC 718, Stock-Compensation. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options, and the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures of awards as they occur and reverse previously unrecognized compensation cost for portions of the award that are unvested at the time of forfeiture.

Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity

The Company applies ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ("ASC Topic 480”), and ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s own Equity ("ASC815-40"), to classify certain redeemable and/or convertible instruments. The Company first determines whether a financial instrument should be classified as a liability. The Company will determine the liability classification if the financial instrument is mandatorily redeemable, or if the financial instrument, other than outstanding shares, embodies a conditional obligation that the Company must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares.

Once the Company determines that a financial instrument should not be classified as a liability, the Company determines whether the financial instrument should be presented between the liability section and the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet (“temporary equity”). The Company will determine temporary equity classification if the redemption of the financial instrument is outside the control of the Company (i.e., at the option of the holder). Otherwise, the Company accounts for the financial instrument as permanent equity.

Initial Measurement

The Company records its financial instruments classified as liability, temporary equity, or permanent equity at issuance at fair value or cash received.

Subsequent Measurement - Financial Instruments classified as liabilities

The Company records the fair value of its financial instruments classified as liabilities at each subsequent measurement date. The changes in fair value of its financial instruments classified as liabilities are recorded as other expense/income.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $293,756 and $469,982 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which are included in selling, general, and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations.

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the Company’s December 31, 2021 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company has chosen to reclassify related party notes payable from "Due to related parties" to "Notes payable - related parties", "Accrued interest - related parties" within "Accrued interest", and noncurrent portion of deferred revenue within "Deferred revenue" to "Deferred revenue, net of current portion" for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company has also chosen to classify “Related party interest expense” within “interest expense” for the year ended December 31, 2021. Such reclassification had no effect on the previously reported financial position, net loss or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12"). The purpose of ASU 2019-12 is to continue the FASB’s Simplification Initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The amendments in ASU 2019-12 simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions related to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the requirement to recognize or derecognize deferred tax liabilities related to equity method investments that are also foreign subsidiaries, and the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period. In addition to removing these exceptions, ASU 2019-12 also clarifies and simplifies other aspects of the accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2019-12. There was no material impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as a result of the adoption.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options, for convertible instruments and also increases information transparency by making disclosure amendments. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2020-06. There was no material impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as a result of the adoption.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Accounting for Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires the use of an “expected loss” model on certain types of financial instruments. The standard also amends the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and requires estimated credit losses to be recorded as allowances instead of reductions to amortized cost of the securities. Update No. 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Convertible Notes

From March 31, 2022 through May 26, 2022, the Company issued convertible notes (each a "Convertible Note" and collectively the "Convertible Notes") to various investors (each a "Holder" and collectively the “Holders”) to raise an aggregate amount of $750,000. The Convertible Notes bear simple interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum (the “Applicable Rate”) and have a maturity date that is 18 months after the issuance of the Convertible Note. The Convertible Notes can be prepaid at any time, without penalty and without the applicable Holder’s consent, on or after the date that is one year after the date the Convertible Note is issued. The Convertible Notes represent a general unsecured obligation of the Company. On or before the date that is one year after the date the Convertible Notes are issued, the Holder may convert the Convertible Note to shares of common stock (“Conversion Stock”) at a price of $10 per share. If the Holder exercises this conversion right, no interest will be owed and only the principal amount will be used to determine the amount of Conversion Stock to be issued. If the Holder does not exercise this conversion right after one year of the issuance date, then the interest at the Applicable Rate shall be owed on any unpaid balance of the Convertible Note calculated from the issuance date until the principal and any accrued fees, expenses, and interest are paid in full (“Contingent Interest Feature”). Additionally, the Convertible Notes are immediately due and payable upon a default event. As of December 31, 2022, the principal balance of the Convertible Notes was $750,000.

Interest expense related to the Convertible Notes described above was $39,976 for the year ended December 31, 2022. Interest payable totaled $39,835 as of December 31, 2022.

The Company evaluated the terms of the Convertible Notes and determined that the Contingent Interest Feature meets the definition of an embedded derivative that is required to be bifurcated from the host instrument and measured at fair value, as the contingent event that triggers the feature is not based on creditworthiness and the feature is not clearly and closely related to the host instrument. However, management determined that the likelihood of the Holder exercising the Contingent Interest Feature is remote, and therefore concluded that the value of the derivative is nominal.

As of December 31, 2022. future principal payments as required under the borrowing arrangements are as follows:

2023	$	779,172
2024		30,651
2025		29,439
2026		26,113

The outstanding principal balance as of December 31, 2021 was $1,064,707. Interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 was $56,225 and $132,277, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, accrued interest was $11,832.

On August 17, 2021, the Company obtained a short-term bridge loan from Premier Trailer in the amount of $500,000. The loan is unsecured, bears interest at 9% per annum, and no payments are required to be made until the maturity date of January 15, 2022. The unpaid principal after the maturity date shall continue to accrue interest at 9% per annum, until paid. On May 5, 2022, the loan was repaid in full. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $15,616. There was no interest expense incurred for the year ended December 31, 2021. There was no accrued interest as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The outstanding principal balance as of December 31, 2021 was $500,000.

On December 22, 2021, the Company obtained a short-term bridge loan from Premier Trailer in the amount of $400,000. The loan is unsecured, bears no interest, and no payments are required to be made until the maturity date of January 31, 2022. The unpaid principal

after the maturity date shall accrue interest at 10% per annum until paid. The loan was repaid in full on January 31, 2022. There was no interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The outstanding principal balance as of December 31, 2021 was $400,000.

Related Party Convertible Note

On March 11, 2022, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note agreement with an accredited investor (the “Holder”) to raise an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 (the “Related Party Convertible Note”). The Related Party Convertible Note bears simple interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum (the “Applicable Rate”) and matures on the date that is 18 months after the issuance of the Related Party Convertible Note. The Related Party Convertible Note can be prepaid at any time, without penalty and without the applicable Holder’s consent, on or after the date that is one year after the date the Related Party Convertible Note is issued. The Related Party Convertible Note represents a general unsecured obligation of the Company. On or before the date that is one year after the date the Related Party Convertible Note is issued, the Holder may convert the Related Party Convertible Note to shares of the Company’s common stock (“Conversion Stock”) at a price of $10 per share. If the Holder exercises this conversion right, no interest will be owed and only the principal amount will be used to determine the amount of Conversion Stock to be issued. If the Holder does not exercise this conversion right after one year of the issuance date, then interest accrued shall be owed on any unpaid balance of the Related Party Convertible Note calculated from the issuance date until the principal and any accrued fees, expenses, and interest are paid in full (“Contingent Interest Feature”). Additionally, the Related Party Convertible Note is immediately due and payable upon a default event. As of December 31, 2022, the principal balance of the Related Party Convertible Note was $4,740,000.

Interest expense related to the Related Party Convertible Note described above was $315,595. Accrued interest totaled $315,595 as of December 31, 2022.

The Company evaluated the terms of the Related Party Convertible Note and determined that the Contingent Interest Feature meets the definition of an embedded derivative that is required to be bifurcated from the host instrument and measured at fair value, as the contingent event that triggers the feature is not based on creditworthiness and the feature is not clearly and closely related to the host instrument. However, management determined that the likelihood of the Holder exercising the Contingent Interest Feature is remote, and therefore concluded that the value of the derivative is nominal.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, Management evaluates whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on Management’s evaluation, the net deferred tax asset was offset by a full valuation allowance as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company’s deferred tax asset valuation allowance will be reversed if and when the Company generates sufficient taxable income in the future to utilize the tax benefits of the related deferred tax assets.

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portion of the deferred tax assets and tax liabilities are as follows:

At December 31, 2022, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $11,556,000 and $11,306,000, respectively. The federal net operating loss carryforwards have no expiration date. The state net operating loss carryforwards expire at varying dates through December 31, 2042.

Pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be limited as a result of a cumulative change in stock ownership of more than 50% over a three-year period. The Company has not determined whether such a change has occurred and accordingly, the utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to certain limitations.

Note 9. Stockholders’ Deficit

Common Stock

The Company has one series of common stock authorized, issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share and, with respect to such vote, will have full voting rights and powers.

The Company has authorized 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock with a par value of $0.0001. The Company has issued and outstanding 17,990,792 and 17,812,413 shares of Common Stock as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Private Placement Offering Memorandum

Effective February 1, 2022, the Company executed a Private Placement Offering Memorandum ("PPM"), for a sale of up to 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an offering price of $10 per share. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had issued 112,680 shares of common stock and raised $1,126,800 of cash under this PPM.

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

The Company currently leases approximately 42,000 square feet of warehouse and executive office space at 1343 S. Main Street, Porterville, California 93257 under a 36-month long-term operating lease agreement that commenced on August 1, 2020 and expires on August 31, 2023. The Company has the option to extend the term of the lease for two five-year terms as well as an option to purchase the leased building, the land, and three adjacent parcels for $2,700,000. For purposes of calculating the right-of-use asset and liability related to this lease, management has used the assumption that the Company will execute its option to extend the lease for the initial five-year term. The base rent payments do not include the Company’s proportionate share of any operating expenses, including real estate taxes.

The lease requires fixed monthly payments (inclusive of the charge for taxes and insurance) of $13,000 for year 1, $15,000 for year 2 and $17,000 for year 3 (“Original lease term”). Thereafter, beginning on August 1, 2023 (“inception of the 1st extension date”), rent will be $14,000 per month, with a 3.0% increase per year (the date of the first increase would be August 1, 2024), plus the charge for insurance and taxes. The lease contract does not include any lease incentive for tenant improvements.

The Company can defer the payment of the total cumulative balance of the monthly base rent up to certain annual amounts as specified therein, for a period of three years. Any deferred portion of the base rent shall bear interest at 6% per annum until paid in full. Under the event of default or if the Company fails to pay the deferred portion of rent by the end of each 12-month period, the lease agreement requires the Company to deliver to the landlord shares of the Company common stock that equates to the deferred rent outstanding. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had not issued any common stock in place of rent payments.

As of December 31, 2022, the weighted average remaining lease term of this operating lease was 5.5 years, and the weighted average discount rate was 6%.

Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities consisted of the following as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The future minimum lease payments due under this operating lease are approximately as follows:


2023		$	119,000

The above noted future minimum lease payments do not include the optional extension period that was used in the calculation of the right-of-use lease liability noted above, as management has subsequently determined the Company does not intend to execute the option to extend the lease (see Note 13).

Rent expense, recognized on a straight-line basis, was approximately $152,292 and $202,727 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively and is recorded in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Legal Matters

From time to time, claims are made against the Company in the ordinary course of business, which could result in litigation. Claims and associated litigation are subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable outcomes could occur, such as monetary damages, fines, penalties or injunctions prohibiting us from selling one or more products or engaging in other activities. The occurrence of unfavorable outcome in any specific period could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for that period or future periods.

Periodically, the Company reviews the status of significant matters, if any exist, and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal claim is considered probable and the amount can be estimated, the Company accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Legal proceedings are subject to uncertainties, and the outcomes are difficult to predict. Because of such uncertainties, accruals are based on the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, the Company reassesses the potential liability related to pending claims and litigation. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not reflect any material amounts related to possible unfavorable outcomes of claims and lawsuits to which it is currently a party because it currently believes that such claims and lawsuits are not expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a material and adverse effect on its financial condition.

Economic and Geographic Concentrations

The Company provides products and services to customers primarily in the United States, Canada, and Australia. Future operations could be affected by changes in economic or other conditions in those markets. The operations of the Company are subject to the administrative directives, rules and regulations of federal, state and local regulatory agencies due to the gradual global adoption of clean energy zero-emission vehicle initiatives.

Note 11. Significant Concentrations

As of December 31, 2022, one customer represented approximately 17% of accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2021, five customers represented approximately 69% of accounts receivable.

One customer represented approximately 14% of gross revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022. No customers represented more than 10% of gross revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Two vendors represented approximately 77% of accounts payable for the year ended December 31, 2022. Three vendors represented 74% of accounts payable for year ended December 31, 2021.

Note 12. Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a defined contribution savings plan under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The plan covers substantially all full-time employees who meet the eligibility requirements, as defined in the related plan document. At its discretion, the Company matches employee contributions made to the plan according to a specified formula. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s matching contribution expense amounted to $18,260 and $15,684, respectively, which is included within payroll and related expenses on the consolidated statement of operations.

Note 13. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of April 7, 2023 and determined that there have been no events that have occurred that would require adjustments to our disclosures in the consolidated financial statements except for the below items.

On January 1, 2023, the Company and CVF amended the terms of the August 30, 2021 loan. The loan was amended to whereby the accrued interest of $63,299 was capitalized to the principal balance, increasing the principal balance to $1,662,246. In addition, the loan amendment extended the maturity date to April 1, 2023, and increased the interest rate on unpaid principal after the maturity date to 16% per annum until paid. On April 1, 2023, the loan was further amended to extend the maturity date to June 1, 2023, and the Company shall be obligated to issue 2,000 shares of common stock to CVF if the loan is not paid in full by the maturity date rather than increasing the interest rate from 8% to 16%.

In January 2023, the Company reassessed the assumptions used to calculate the initial ROU asset and liability of their lease, determining that the Company does not intend to exercise the option to extend the lease and intends to exercise the purchase option per the lease agreement. Such change in assumption will result in reclassifying the lease from operating to financing during the first quarter of 2023.

On January 16, 2023, the Company entered into a promissory note agreement with an accredited investors to raise an aggregate cash amount of $400,000. This note bears interest at the annual rate of 8%, compounded monthly, and matures on April 1, 2023. The promissory note may be prepaid by the Company at any time without penalty. On April 1, 2023, the loan was amended to extend the maturity date to June 1, 2023, and the Company shall be obligated to issue 500 shares of common stock to CVF if the loan is not paid in full by the maturity date.

On February 16, 2023, the Company entered into promissory note agreements with two accredited investors to raise an aggregate cash amount of $460,000. These notes bear interest at the annual rate of 8%, compounded monthly, and mature on June 1, 2023. The promissory notes may be prepaid by the Company at any time without penalty.

On March 7, 2023, The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation ("G4G"), G4G Merger Sub Inc. ("Merger Sub"), and the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides that the following transactions will occur (together with the other agreements and transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”): (i) at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and the Company will be the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of G4G (the “Merger”); (ii) as a result of the Merger, among other things, all outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock will be canceled in exchange for the right to receive, in the aggregate, a number of shares of G4G Common Stock (as defined below) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $225,000,000 by (y) $10.00; and (iv) upon closing of the Merger, G4G will be renamed “Zero Nox Holdings, Inc.”

On March 10, 2023, the Company amended one of the Convertible Notes with a principal balance of $5,000,000. Per the terms of the amendment, the maturity date of the Convertible Note was extended from the date 18 months after issuance (or September 11, 2023) to the earlier of a) October 1, 2023, or b) the time at which the balance of the Convertible Note is due and payable upon an Event of Default. In addition, the deadline to convert the Convertible Note was extended from the date 12 months after issuance (or March 11, 2023) to May 1, 2023. After May 1, 2023, the Company may pay any unpaid balance on the Convertible Note before it becomes due without the consent of the holder of the Convertible Note.

Section 3.2. Exchange Procedures

(a) Prior to the Closing, and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Acquiror shall appoint an exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) to act as the agent for the purpose of paying the Aggregate Merger Consideration to the Company’s equityholders. At or before the Effective Time, Acquiror shall (i) deposit with the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the Company’s equityholders, for exchange in accordance with this Article III, the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock equal to the portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration to be paid in shares of Acquiror Common Stock and (ii) direct the Exchange Agent to, at the Effective Time, take all such actions as may be necessary to exchange the shares of Company Common Stock for the Acquiror Common Stock.

(c) Each holder of shares of Company Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive a portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration, pursuant to Section 3.1(a), shall be entitled to receive such portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of an “agent’s message” (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) or a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal, as applicable, and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Exchange Agent. No interest shall be paid or accrued upon the transfer of any share.

(d) Promptly following the date that is one (1) year after the Effective Time, Acquiror shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to Acquiror all documents in its possession relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, any portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration that remains unclaimed shall be returned to Acquiror, and any Person that was a holder of shares of Company Common Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time that has not exchanged such shares of Company Common Stock for an applicable portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 3.2 prior to the date that is one (1) year after the Effective Time, may transfer such shares of Company Common Stock to Acquiror and (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws) receive in consideration therefor, and Acquiror shall promptly deliver, such applicable portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration without any interest thereupon.

Section 3.3. Treatment of Company Options.

(a) As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of a Company Option, each Company Option that is then outstanding shall be converted into an option to purchase shares of Acquiror Common Stock upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are in effect with respect to such option immediately prior to the Effective Time, including with respect to vesting and termination-related provisions (each, an “Acquiror Option”), except that (a) such Acquiror Option shall provide the right to purchase that whole number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, and (b) the exercise price per share for each such Acquiror Option shall be equal to the exercise price per share of such Company Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by the Exchange Ratio (the exercise price per share, as so determined, being rounded down to the nearest full cent); provided, however, that the conversion of any such Company Options that are “incentive stock options” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) will be made in a manner that is intended to be consistent with Treasury Regulations Section 1.424-1, and the conversion of the Company Options will be made in a manner such that such conversion will not constitute a “modification” of such Company Options for purposes of Section 409A or Section 424 of the Code, as applicable.

(b) The Company shall take all necessary actions to effect the treatment of Company Options pursuant to this Section 3.3 in accordance with the Company Incentive Plan and the applicable award agreements and to ensure that no Acquiror Option may be exercised prior to the effective date of an applicable Form S-8 (or other applicable form, including Form S-1 or Form S-3) of Acquiror. The Board of Directors of the Company shall amend the Company Incentive Plan and take all other necessary actions, effective as of immediately prior to the Closing, in order to provide that no new Company Options will be granted under the Company Incentive Plan.

(c) At the Effective Time, Acquiror shall assume all obligations of the Company under the Company Incentive Plan, each outstanding Acquiror Option and the agreements evidencing the grants thereof. The agreements evidencing the grants of such Acquiror Options shall continue in effect on substantially the same terms and conditions (subject to the adjustments required by this Section 3.3 after giving effect to the Merger).

The Company further acknowledges that, as described in the prospectus dated December 9, 2021 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of Acquiror assets consist of the cash proceeds of Acquiror’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in the trust account for the benefit of Acquiror’s public shareholders and the underwriters of Acquiror’s initial public offering (the “Trust Account”) pursuant to the Trust Agreement. The Company acknowledges that it has been advised by Acquiror that, except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to Acquiror to pay its franchise Tax, income Tax and similar obligations, the Trust Agreement provides that cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only (i) if Acquiror completes the transactions which constitute a Business Combination, then to those Persons and in such amounts as described in the Prospectus; (ii) if Acquiror fails to complete a Business Combination within the allotted time period and liquidates, subject to the terms of the Trust Agreement, to Acquiror in limited amounts to permit Acquiror to pay the costs and expenses of its liquidation and dissolution, and then to Acquiror’s public shareholders; and (iii) if Acquiror holds a shareholder vote to amend Acquiror’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the obligation to allow redemptions in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Acquiror Class A Common Shares if Acquiror fails to complete a Business Combination within the allotted time period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of the Acquiror Class A Common Shares, then for the redemption of any Acquiror Class A Common Shares properly tendered in connection with such vote to the extent permitted by the Acquiror Governing Documents. For and in consideration of Acquiror entering into this Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company hereby irrevocably waives any right, title, interest or claim of any kind it has or may have in the future in or to any monies in the Trust Account or any funds distributed therefrom and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement and any negotiations, Contracts or agreements with Acquiror.

The shares reported in the table above are held in the name of Sponsor Holdco. Yana Watson Kakar, Rahul Kakar and David Birnbaum are the managing members of Sponsor Holdco. Each managing member has one vote, and the approval of two of three managing members is required to approve an action by Sponsor Holdco. Under the so-called “rule of three,” if voting and dispositive decisions regarding an entity’s securities are made by two or more individuals, and a voting and dispositive decision requires the approval of a majority of those individuals, then none of the individuals is deemed a beneficial owner of the entity’s securities. This is the situation with regard to Sponsor Holdco. Based upon the foregoing analysis, no individual managing members of Sponsor Holdco exercises voting or dispositive control over any of the securities held by Sponsor Holdco, even those in which he or she directly holds a pecuniary interest. Accordingly, none of them will be deemed to have or share beneficial ownership of such shares. Additionally, each of Acquiror’s officers, directors and strategic advisors is, directly or indirectly, a member of Sponsor Holdco or have direct or indirect economic interests in Sponsor Holdco, and each of them disclaims any beneficial ownership of any shares held by Sponsor Holdco except to the extent of his or her ultimate pecuniary interest. Further, two institutional investors (the “Anchor Investors”) have subscribed to purchase membership interests in Sponsor Holdco. These Anchor Investors have committed to provide $4,000,000 of upfront capital to Sponsor Holdco in return for a minority economic ownership interest. Such Anchor Investors will not receive voting or governance rights.

(2)

Each of Acquiror’s independent directors is, directly or indirectly, a member of Sponsor Holdco or has direct or indirect economic interests in Sponsor Holdco, and each of them disclaims any beneficial ownership of any shares held by Sponsor Holdco except to the extent of his or her ultimate pecuniary interest.

A. COMMON STOCK.

1.General. The voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and powers of the Common Stock are subject to and qualified by the rights, powers and preferences of any series of Preferred Stock as may be designated by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) and outstanding from time to time.

2.Voting. Except as otherwise provided herein or expressly required by law, each holder of Common Stock, as such, shall be entitled to vote on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders and shall be entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held of record by such holder as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter. Except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Certificate of Designation (as defined below)) that relates solely to the rights, powers, preferences (or the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof) or other terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Certificate of Designation) or pursuant to the DGCL.

Subject to the rights of any holders of any outstanding series of Preferred Stock, the number of authorized shares of Common Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stock of the Corporation entitled to vote, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

5.Transfer Rights.

B.PREFERRED STOCK

Shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of such series to have such terms as stated or expressed herein and in the resolution or resolutions providing for the creation and issuance of such series adopted by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided.

Authority is hereby expressly granted to the Board of Directors from time to time to issue the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and in connection with the creation of any such series, by adopting a resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of the shares thereof and by filing a certificate of designation relating thereto in accordance with the DGCL (a “Certificate of Designation”), to determine and fix the number of shares of such series and such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including without limitation thereof, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, and to increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series as shall be stated and expressed in such resolutions, all to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the resolution or resolutions providing for the creation and issuance of any series of Preferred Stock may provide that such series shall be superior or rank equally or be junior to any other series of Preferred Stock to the extent permitted by law and this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Certificate of Designation). Except as otherwise required by law, holders of any series of Preferred Stock shall be entitled only to such voting rights, if any, as shall expressly be granted thereto by this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Certificate of Designation).

The number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stock of the Corporation entitled to vote, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

ARTICLE VII

For the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation it is further provided that:

A.There shall be one class of directors. Subject to the special rights of the holders of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock to elect directors, commencing at the first annual meeting of the stockholders following the filing and effectiveness of this Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and at each annual meeting of the stockholders thereafter, directors shall be elected to hold office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders held in the year following the year of their election. Each director shall hold office until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal in accordance with this Certificate of Incorporation. No decrease in the number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

B.Except as otherwise expressly provided by the DGCL or this Certificate of Incorporation, the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors. The number of directors that shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be fixed exclusively by one or more resolutions adopted from time to time by the Board of Directors in accordance with the Bylaws.

C.Subject to the special rights of the holders of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock to elect directors, the Board of Directors or any individual director may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause and only by the affirmative

D-2

Table of Contents

vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of voting stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at an election of directors.

D.Subject to the special rights of the holders of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock to elect directors, except as otherwise provided by law, any vacancies on the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, retirement, removal or other causes and any newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors shall be filled exclusively by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director (other than any directors elected by the separate vote of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock), and shall not be filled by the stockholders. Any director appointed in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office until the expiration of the term of the class to which such director shall have been appointed or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, or removal.

E.Whenever the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation shall have the right, voting separately as a series or separately as a class with one or more such other series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, removal and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the terms of this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Certificate of Designation). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VII, the number of directors that may be elected by the holders of any such series of Preferred Stock shall be in addition to the number fixed pursuant to paragraph B of this Article VII, and the total number of directors constituting the whole Board of Directors shall be automatically adjusted accordingly. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Designation(s) in respect of one or more series of Preferred Stock, whenever the holders of any series of Preferred Stock having such right to elect additional directors are divested of such right pursuant to the provisions of such Certificate of Designation(s), the terms of office of all such additional directors elected by the holders of such series of Preferred Stock, or elected to fill any vacancies resulting from the death, resignation, disqualification or removal of such additional directors, shall forthwith terminate (in which case each such director thereupon shall cease to be qualified as, and shall cease to be, a director) and the total authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be reduced accordingly.

F.In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws, subject to the power of the stockholders of the Corporation entitled to vote with respect thereto to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws. The stockholders of the Corporation shall also have the power to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws; provided, that in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Corporation required by applicable law or by this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Certificate of Designation in respect of one or more series of Preferred Stock) or the Bylaws of the Corporation, the adoption, amendment or repeal of the Bylaws of the Corporation by the stockholders of the Corporation shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of voting stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in an election of directors.

G.The directors of the Corporation need not be elected by written ballot unless the Bylaws so provide.

ARTICLE VIII

A.Any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation may be effected at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation, or may, except as otherwise required by applicable law or this Certificate of Incorporation, be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding shares of stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action required or permitted to be taken by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or separately as a class with one or more other such series, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, to the extent expressly so provided by the applicable Certificate of Designation relating to such series of Preferred Stock, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding shares of the relevant series of Preferred Stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

B.Subject to the special rights of the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock, and to the requirements of applicable law, special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation may be called for any purpose or purposes, at any time only by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, the Chairperson of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer or President, in each case, in accordance with the Bylaws, and shall not be called by any other person or persons. Any such special meeting so called may be postponed, rescheduled or cancelled by the Board of Directors or other person calling the meeting.

D-3

Table of Contents

C.Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of other business proposed to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws. Any business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to matters relating to the purpose or purposes identified in the notice of meeting.

ARTICLE IX

No director of the Corporation shall have any personal liability to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as the same exists or hereafter may be amended. Any amendment, repeal or modification of this Article IX, or the adoption of any provision of this Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article IX, shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such amendment, repeal, modification or adoption. If the DGCL is amended after approval by the stockholders of this Article IX to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as so amended.

ARTICLE X

A.The Corporation hereby expressly elects not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL, and instead the provisions of Article X(B)-(D) below shall apply, for so long as the Corporation’s Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

B.The Corporation shall not engage in any business combination with any interested stockholder (as defined below) for a period of three years following the time that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless:

(1)prior to such time, the Board approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

(2)upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock (as defined below) of the Corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) those shares owned by (i) persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

(3)at or subsequent to such time, the business combination is approved by the Board and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

C.The restrictions contained in the foregoing Article X(B) shall not apply if:

(1)a stockholder becomes an interested stockholder inadvertently and (i) as soon as practicable divests itself of ownership of sufficient shares so that the stockholder ceases to be an interested stockholder and (ii) would not, at any time, within the three-year period immediately prior to the business combination between the Corporation and such stockholder, have been an interested stockholder but for the inadvertent acquisition of ownership; or

(2)the business combination is proposed prior to the consummation or abandonment of and subsequent to the earlier of the public announcement or the notice required hereunder of a proposed transaction which (i) constitutes one of the transactions described in the second sentence of this Article X(C)(2), (ii) is with or by a person who either was not an interested stockholder during the previous three years or who became an interested stockholder with the approval of the Board and (iii) is approved or not opposed by a majority of the directors then in office (but not less than one) who were directors prior to any person becoming an interested stockholder during the previous three years or were recommended for election or elected to succeed such directors by a majority of such directors. The proposed transactions referred to in the preceding sentence are limited to (x) a merger or consolidation of the Corporation (except for a merger in respect of which, pursuant to Section 251(f) of the DGCL, no vote of the stockholders of the Corporation is required), (y) a sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, whether as part of a dissolution or otherwise, of assets of the Corporation or of any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation (other than to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary or to the Corporation) having an aggregate market value equal to fifty percent or more of either that aggregate market value of all the assets of the Corporation determined on a consolidated basis or the aggregate market value of all the

D-4

outstanding stock of the Corporation or (z) a proposed tender or exchange offer for 50% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation. The Corporation shall give not less than 20 days’ notice to all interested stockholders prior to the consummation of any of the transactions described in clause (x) or (y) of the second sentence of this Article X(C)(2).

(3)“business combination,” when used in reference to the Corporation and any interested stockholder of the Corporation, means:

a.any merger or consolidation of the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation (a) with the interested stockholder, or (b) with any other corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity if the merger or consolidation is caused by the interested stockholder and as a result of such merger or consolidation subsection (B) of this Article X is not applicable to the surviving entity;

b.any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition (in one transaction or a series of transactions), except proportionately as a stockholder of the Corporation, to or with the interested stockholder, whether as part of a dissolution or otherwise, of assets of the Corporation or of any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation which assets have an aggregate market value equal to 25% or more of either the aggregate market value of all the assets of the Corporation determined on a consolidated basis or the aggregate market value of all the outstanding stock of the Corporation;

c.any transaction which results in the issuance or transfer by the Corporation or by any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation of any stock of the Corporation or of such subsidiary to the interested stockholder, except: (i) pursuant to the exercise, exchange or conversion of securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into stock of the Corporation or any such subsidiary which securities were outstanding prior to the time that the interested stockholder became such; (ii) pursuant to a merger under Section 251(g) of the DGCL; (iii) pursuant to a dividend or distribution paid or made, or the exercise, exchange or conversion of securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into stock of the Corporation or any such subsidiary which security is distributed, pro rata to all holders of a class or series of stock of the Corporation subsequent to the time the interested stockholder became such; (iv) pursuant to an exchange offer by the Corporation to purchase stock made on the same terms to all holders of said stock; or (v) any issuance or transfer of stock by the Corporation; provided, however, that in no case under items (iii) through (v) of this subsection shall there be an increase in the interested stockholder’s proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the Corporation or of the voting stock of the Corporation (except as a result of immaterial changes due to fractional share adjustments);

d.any transaction involving the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation which has the effect, directly or indirectly, of increasing the proportionate share of the stock of any class or series, or securities convertible into the stock of any class or series, of the Corporation or of any such subsidiary which is owned by the interested stockholder, except as a result of immaterial changes due to fractional share adjustments or as a result of any purchase or redemption of any shares of stock not caused, directly or indirectly, by the interested stockholder; or

e.any receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit, directly or indirectly (except proportionately as a stockholder of the Corporation), of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges, or other financial benefits (other than those expressly permitted in subsections (a) through (d) above) provided by or through the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary.

(5)“interested stockholder” means any person (other than the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation) that (i) is the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation, or (ii) is an affiliate or associate of the Corporation and was the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation at any time within the three year period immediately prior to the date on which it is sought to be determined whether such person is an interested stockholder; and the affiliates and associates of such person; but “interested stockholder” shall not include (a) any Stockholder Party, any Stockholder Party Direct Transferee, any Stockholder Party Indirect Transferee or any of their respective affiliates or successors or any “group,” or any member of any such group, to which such persons are a party under Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act, or (b) any person whose ownership of shares in excess of the 15% limitation set forth herein is the result of any action taken solely by the Corporation; provided, further, that in the case of clause (b) such person shall be an interested stockholder if thereafter such person acquires additional shares of voting stock of the Corporation, except as a result of further corporate action not caused, directly or indirectly, by such person. For the purpose of determining whether a person is an interested stockholder, the voting stock of the Corporation deemed to be outstanding shall include stock deemed to be owned by the person through application of the definition of “owner” below.

c.has any agreement, arrangement or understanding for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except voting pursuant to a revocable proxy or consent as described in item (ii) of subsection (b) above), or disposing of such stock with any other person that beneficially owns, or whose affiliates or associates beneficially own, directly or indirectly, such stock.

(7)“person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity.

(8)“stock” means, with respect to any corporation, capital stock and, with respect to any other entity, any equity interest.

(11)“Stockholder Party Indirect Transferee” means any person that acquires (other than in a registered public offering) directly from any Stockholder Party Direct Transferee or any other Stockholder Party Indirect Transferee beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the then outstanding voting stock of the Corporation.

The Corporation shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law, as now or hereafter in effect, and such right to indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives; provided, however, that, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board. The right to indemnification conferred by this Article XI shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon receipt by the Corporation of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer receiving advancement to repay the amount advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation under this Article XI. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Corporation similar to those conferred in this Article XI to directors and officers of the Corporation. The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in this Article XI shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any statute, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. Any repeal or modification of this Article XI by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses of a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

The Corporation hereby acknowledges that certain Covered Persons may have rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses (directly or through insurance obtained by any such entity) provided by one or more third parties (collectively, the “Other Indemnitors”), and which may include third parties for whom such Covered Person serves as a manager, member, officer, employee or agent. The Corporation hereby agrees and acknowledges that notwithstanding any such rights that a Covered Person may have with respect to any Other Indemnitor(s), (i) the Corporation is the indemnitor of first resort with respect to all Covered Persons and all obligations to indemnify and provide advancement of expenses to Covered Persons, (ii) the Corporation shall be required to indemnify and advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the Covered Persons, to the fullest extent required by law, the terms of this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any agreement to which the Corporation is a party, any vote of the stockholders or the Board, or otherwise, without regard to any rights the Covered Persons may have against the Other Indemnitors and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Corporation irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Other Indemnitors from any and all claims for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Corporation further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Other Indemnitors with respect to any claim for which the Covered Persons have sought indemnification from the Corporation shall affect the foregoing and the Other Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of any such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Covered Persons against the Corporation. These rights shall be a contract right, and the Other Indemnitors are express third party beneficiaries of the terms of this paragraph. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the obligations of the Corporation under this paragraph shall only apply to Covered Persons in their capacity as Covered Persons.

If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of the immediately preceding sentence is filed in a court other than the courts in the State of Delaware (a “Foreign Action”) in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (a) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence and (b) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.

(c)As to each item of business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting, (1) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting and any material interest in such business of each Proposing Person, (2) the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend the bylaws of the Corporation, the language of the proposed amendment), and (3) a reasonably detailed description of all agreements, arrangements and understandings (x) between or among any of the Proposing Persons or (y) between or among any Proposing Person and any other record or beneficial holder(s) or persons(s) who have a right to acquire beneficial ownership at any time in the future of the shares of any class or series of the Corporation or any other person or entity (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such stockholder; and (4) any other information relating to such item of business that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies in support of the business proposed to be brought before the meeting pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act; provided, however, that the disclosures required by this paragraph (iii) shall not include any disclosures with respect to any broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee who is a Proposing Person solely as a result of being the stockholder directed to prepare and submit the notice required by these Bylaws on behalf of a beneficial owner.

For purposes of this Section 2.4, the term “Proposing Person” shall mean (i) the stockholder providing the notice of business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting, (ii) the beneficial owner or beneficial owners, if different, on whose behalf the notice of the business proposed to be brought before the annual meeting is made, and (iii) any participant (as defined in paragraphs (a)(ii)-(vi) of Instruction 3 to Item 4 of Schedule 14A) with such stockholder in such solicitation.

(iv)A Proposing Person shall update and supplement its notice to the Corporation of its intent to propose business at an annual meeting, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be true and correct as of the record date for stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and as of the date that is 10 business days

(iii)A candidate for nomination as a director shall further update and supplement the materials delivered pursuant to this Section 2.6, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be true and correct as of the record date for stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and as of the date that is 10 business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to, or mailed and received by, the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation (or any other office specified by the Corporation in any public announcement) not later than five business days after the record date for stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of such record date), and not later than eight business days prior to the date for the meeting or, if practicable, any adjournment or postponement thereof (and, if not practicable, on the first practicable date prior to the date to which the meeting has been adjourned or postponed) (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of 10 business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof).

2.7Notice of Stockholders’ Meetings.

Unless otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, the notice of any meeting of stockholders shall be sent or otherwise given in accordance with Section 8.1 of these bylaws not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting. The notice shall specify the place, if any, date and time of the meeting, the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called.

2.8Quorum.

Unless otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, the holders of a majority in voting power of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, present in person, or by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders. A quorum, once established at a meeting, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum. If, however, a quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then either (i) the person presiding over the meeting or (ii) a majority in voting power of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person, or by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy, shall have power to recess the meeting or adjourn the meeting from time to time in the manner provided in Section 2.9 of these bylaws until a quorum is present or represented. At any recessed or adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed.

2.9Adjourned Meeting; Notice.

When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, unless these bylaws otherwise require, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At any adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board shall fix as the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting as of the record date so fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

2.10 Conduct of Business.

The date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting shall be announced at the meeting by the person presiding over the meeting. The Board may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board, the person presiding over any meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to convene and (for any or no reason) to recess and/or adjourn the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures (which need not be in writing) and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such presiding person, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board or prescribed by the person presiding over the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present (including, without limitation, rules and procedures for removal of disruptive persons from the meeting); (iii) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to

stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the person presiding over the meeting shall determine; (iv) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (v) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants. The presiding person at any meeting of stockholders, in addition to making any other determinations that may be appropriate to the conduct of the meeting (including, without limitation, determinations with respect to the administration and/or interpretation of any of the rules, regulations or procedures of the meeting, whether adopted by the Board or prescribed by the person presiding over the meeting), shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a matter of business was not properly brought before the meeting and if such presiding person should so determine, such presiding person shall so declare to the meeting and any such matter or business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted or considered. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board or the person presiding over the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

2.11 Voting.

Except as may be otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, these bylaws or the DGCL, each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder.

Except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, at all duly called or convened meetings of stockholders at which a quorum is present, for the election of directors, a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to elect a director. Except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, these bylaws, the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the Corporation, or applicable law or pursuant to any regulation applicable to the Corporation or its securities, each other matter presented to the stockholders at a duly called or convened meeting at which a quorum is present shall be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes) on such matter.

2.12 Record Date for Stockholder Meetings and Other Purposes.

In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which record date shall, unless otherwise required by law, not be more than 60 days nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting. If the Board so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be the close of business on the next day preceding the day on which notice is first given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting; and in such case shall also fix as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote in accordance herewith at the adjourned meeting.

In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment or any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of capital stock, or for the purposes of any other lawful action, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

2.13 Proxies.

Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy authorized by an instrument in writing or by a transmission permitted by law filed in accordance with the procedure established for the meeting, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. The revocability of a proxy that states on its face that it is irrevocable shall be governed by the provisions of Section 212 of the DGCL. A proxy may be in the form of an electronic transmission that sets forth or is submitted with information from which it can be determined that the transmission was authorized by the stockholder.

2.14 List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote.

The Corporation shall prepare, at least 10 days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (provided, however, that if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than 10 days before the date of the meeting, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date), arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. The Corporation shall not be required to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the Corporation’s principal executive office. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. Such list shall presumptively determine the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by each of them. Except as otherwise provided by law, the stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders required by this Section 2.14 or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

2.15 Inspectors of Election.

Before any meeting of stockholders, the Corporation shall appoint an inspector or inspectors of election to act at the meeting or its adjournment and make a written report thereof. The Corporation may designate one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If any person appointed as inspector or any alternate fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, then the person presiding over the meeting shall appoint a person to fill that vacancy.

Such inspectors shall:

(i)determine the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, the number of shares represented at the meeting and the validity of any proxies and ballots;

(ii)count all votes or ballots;

(iii)count and tabulate all votes;

(iv)determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspector(s); and

(v)certify its or their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting and its or their count of all votes and ballots.

Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of the duties of inspector, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspection with strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector’s ability. Any report or certificate made by the inspectors of election is prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. The inspectors of election may appoint such persons to assist them in performing their duties as they determine.

2.16 Delivery to the Corporation.

Whenever this Article II requires one or more persons (including a record or beneficial owner of stock) to deliver a document or information to the Corporation or any officer, employee or agent thereof (including any notice, request, questionnaire, revocation, representation or other document or agreement), such document or information shall be in writing exclusively (and not in an electronic transmission) and shall be delivered exclusively by hand (including, without limitation, overnight courier service) or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, and the Corporation shall not be required to accept delivery of any document not in such written form or so delivered. For the avoidance of doubt, the Corporation expressly opts out of Section 116 of the DGCL with respect to the delivery of information and documents to the Corporation required by this Article II.

After an action is taken, the consent or consents relating thereto shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board, or the committee thereof, in the same paper or electronic form as the minutes are maintained.

Upon the face or back of each stock certificate issued to represent any such partly paid shares, or upon the books and records of the Corporation in the case of uncertificated partly paid shares, the total amount of the consideration to be paid therefor and the amount paid thereon shall be stated. Upon the declaration of any dividend on fully paid shares, the Corporation shall declare a dividend upon partly paid shares of the same class, but only upon the basis of the percentage of the consideration actually paid thereon.

Article VIII—Notice

8.1Delivery of Notice; Notice by Electronic Transmission.

Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provisions of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these bylaws may be given in writing directed to the stockholder’s mailing address (or by electronic transmission directed to the stockholder’s electronic mail address, as applicable) as it appears on the records of the Corporation and shall be given (1) if mailed, when the notice is deposited in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid, (2) if delivered by courier service, the earlier of when the notice is received or left at such stockholder’s address or (3) if given by electronic mail, when directed to such stockholder’s electronic mail address unless the stockholder has notified the Corporation in writing or by electronic transmission of an objection to receiving notice by electronic mail. A notice by electronic mail must include a prominent legend that the communication is an important notice regarding the Corporation.

Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice or electronic transmission to the Corporation. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph, the Corporation may give a notice by electronic mail in accordance with the first paragraph of this section without obtaining the consent required by this paragraph.

Any notice given pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be deemed given:

(i)

if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

(ii)

if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (A) such posting and (B) the giving of such separate notice; and

(iii)

if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a notice may not be given by an electronic transmission from and after the time that (1) the Corporation is unable to deliver by such electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Corporation and (2) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice, provided, however, the inadvertent failure to discover such inability shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

An affidavit of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or of the transfer agent or other agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

Article IX—Indemnification

9.1Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings other than Those by or in the Right of the Corporation.

Subject to Section 9.3, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was unlawful.

9.2Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation.

E-16

Table of Contents

Subject to Section 9.3, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

9.3Authorization of Indemnification.

Any indemnification under this Article IX (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.2, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by a majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iv) by the stockholders. Such determination shall be made, with respect to former directors and officers, by any person or persons having the authority to act on the matter on behalf of the Corporation. To the extent, however, that a present or former director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

9.4Good Faith Defined.

For purposes of any determination under Section 9.3, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful, if such person’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or on information supplied to such person by the officers of the Corporation or another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Corporation or another enterprise. The provisions of this Section 9.4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or 9.2, as the case may be.

9.5Indemnification by a Court.

Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 9.3, and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any director or officer may apply to the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Section 9.1 or 9.2. The basis of such indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.2, as the case may be. Neither a contrary determination in the specific case under Section 9.3 nor the absence of any determination thereunder shall be a defense to such application or create a presumption that the director or officer seeking indemnification has not met any applicable standard of conduct. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Article IX shall be given to the Corporation promptly upon the filing of such application. If successful, in whole or in part, the director or officer seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.

9.6Expenses Payable in Advance.

Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or

E-17

Table of Contents

proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article IX. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Corporation deems appropriate.

9.7Nonexclusivity of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article IX shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Certificate of Incorporation, these By-Laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the Corporation that indemnification of the persons specified in Section 9.1 or 9.2 shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. The provisions of this Article IX shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 but whom the Corporation has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the DGCL, or otherwise.

9.8Insurance.

The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article IX.

9.9Certain Definitions.

For purposes of this Article IX, references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors or officers, so that any person who is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation, or is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article IX with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. The term “another enterprise” as used in this Article IX shall mean any other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise of which such person is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent. For purposes of this Article IX, references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director or officer with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as referred to in this Article IX.

9.10Survival of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article IX shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

9.11Limitation on Indemnification.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article IX to the contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification (which shall be governed by Section 9.5), the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) or advance expenses in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

9.12Indemnification of Employees and Agents.

Notwithstanding that a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by other persons (collectively, the “Other Indemnitors”), with respect to the rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance set forth herein, the Corporation: (i) shall be the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to Covered Persons are primary and any obligation of the Other Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by Covered Persons are secondary); and (ii) shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by Covered Persons and shall be liable for the full amount of all liabilities, without regard to any rights Covered Persons may have against any of the Other Indemnitors. No advancement or payment by the Other Indemnitors on behalf of Covered Persons with respect to any claim for which Covered Persons have sought indemnification from the Corporation shall affect the immediately preceding sentence, and the Other Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of Covered Persons against the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the obligations of the Corporation under this Section 9.13 shall only apply to Covered Persons in their capacity as Covered Persons.

Article X—Amendments

The Board is expressly empowered to adopt, amend or repeal the bylaws of the Corporation. The stockholders also shall have power to adopt, amend or repeal the bylaws of the Corporation; provided, however, that such action by stockholders shall require, in addition to any other vote required by the Certificate of Incorporation or applicable law, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of voting stock of the Corporation with the power to vote generally in an election of directors, voting together as a single class.

ADMINISTRATION AND DELEGATION

4.1Administration.

(a)The Plan is administered by the Administrator. The Administrator has authority to determine which Service Providers receive Awards, grant Awards and set Award terms and conditions, subject to the conditions and limitations in the Plan. The Administrator also has the authority to take all actions and make all determinations under the Plan, to interpret the Plan and Award Agreements and to adopt, amend and repeal Plan administrative rules, guidelines and practices as it deems advisable. The Administrator may correct defects and ambiguities, supply omissions, reconcile inconsistencies in the Plan or any Award and make all other determinations that it deems necessary or appropriate to administer the Plan and any Awards. The Administrator (and each member thereof) is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to it, him or her by any officer or other employee of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Company’s independent certified public accountants, or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company to assist in the administration of the Plan. The Administrator’s determinations under the Plan are in its sole discretion and will be final, binding and conclusive on all persons having or claiming any interest in the Plan or any Award.

(b)Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrator has the exclusive power, authority and sole discretion to: (i) designate Participants; (ii) determine the type or types of Awards to be granted to each Participant; (iii) determine the number of Awards to be granted and the number of Shares to which an Award will relate; (iv) subject to the limitations in the Plan, determine the terms and conditions of any Award and related Award Agreement, including, but not limited to, the exercise price, grant price, purchase price, any performance criteria, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for vesting, lapse of forfeiture restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award, and accelerations, waivers or amendments thereof; (v) determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances an Award may be settled in, or the exercise price of an Award may be paid in cash, Shares, or other property, or an Award may be canceled, forfeited, or surrendered; and (vi) make all other decisions and determinations that may be required pursuant to the Plan or as the Administrator deems necessary or advisable to administer the Plan.

4.2Delegation of Authority. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Board or any Committee may delegate any or all of its powers under the Plan to one or more Committees or officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that in no event shall an officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be delegated the authority to grant Awards to, or amend Awards held by, the following individuals: (a) individuals who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, or

F-6

Table of Contents

(b) officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Directors to whom authority to grant or amend Awards has been delegated hereunder. Any delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Board or Committee specifies at the time of such delegation or that are otherwise included in the applicable organizational documents, and the Board or Committee, as applicable, may at any time rescind the authority so delegated or appoint a new delegatee. At all times, the delegatee appointed under this Section 4.2 shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Board or the Committee, as applicable, and the Board or the Committee may abolish any committee at any time and re-vest in itself any previously delegated authority. Further, regardless of any delegation, the Board or a Committee may, in its discretion, exercise any and all rights and duties as the Administrator under the Plan delegated thereby, except with respect to Awards that are required to be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee under the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded.

ARTICLE V

STOCK AVAILABLE FOR AWARDS

5.1Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment under Article IX and the terms of this Article V, Awards may be made under the Plan covering up to the Overall Share Limit. As of the Effective Date, the Company will cease granting awards under the Prior Plan; however, Prior Plan Awards will remain subject to the terms of the Prior Plan. Shares issued or delivered under the Plan may consist of authorized but unissued Shares, Shares purchased on the open market or treasury Shares.

5.2Share Recycling.

(a)If all or any part of an Award or Prior Plan Award expires, lapses or is terminated, without having been fully exercised or forfeited, in any case, in a manner that results in the Company not issuing the full number of Shares covered by the Award or Prior Plan Award, the unused Shares covered by the Award or Prior Plan Award will, as applicable, again become available for issuance under the Plan. The payment of Dividend Equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding Awards or Prior Plan Awards shall count against the Overall Share Limit.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Shares subject to an Award or Prior Plan Award shall not again be made available for issuance or delivery under the Plan if such Shares are tendered by the Participant or withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax withholding obligation with respect to an Award or any Prior Plan Award. In addition, Shares subject to a Stock Appreciation Right that are not issued in connection with the stock settlement of the Stock Appreciation Right on exercise thereof and Shares tendered by a Participant or withheld by the Company in payment of the exercise price of an Option or any stock option granted under the Prior Plan shall not be available for future grants of Awards. Further, no Shares may again be optioned, granted or awarded pursuant to an Incentive Stock Option if such action would cause such Option to fail to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code.

5.3Incentive Stock Option Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no more than [__________]² Shares (as adjusted to reflect any Equity Restructuring) may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options.

Table of Contents

5.4Substitute Awards. In connection with an entity’s merger or consolidation with the Company or any Subsidiary or the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s acquisition of an entity’s property or stock, the Administrator may grant Awards in substitution for any options or other stock or stock-based awards granted before such merger or consolidation by such entity or its affiliate. Substitute Awards may be granted on such terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate, notwithstanding limitations on Awards in the Plan. Substitute Awards will not count against the Overall Share Limit (nor shall Shares subject to a Substitute Award be added to the Shares available for Awards under the Plan as provided above), except that Shares acquired by exercise of substitute Incentive Stock Options will count against the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options under the Plan. Additionally, subject to applicable stock exchange requirements, in the event that a company acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary or with which the Company or any Subsidiary combines has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as appropriately adjusted to reflect the transaction) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under the Plan (and Shares subject to such Awards may again become available for Awards under the Plan as provided under Section 5.2 above); provided that Awards using such available shares shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not Employees, Directors or Consultants prior to such acquisition or combination.

5.5Non-Employee Director Award Limit. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Plan or in any policy of the Company regarding non-employee director compensation, the sum of the grant date fair value (determined as of the grant date in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, or any successor thereto) of all equity-based Awards and the maximum amount that may become payable pursuant to all cash-based Awards that may be granted to a Service Provider as compensation for services as a Non-Employee Director during any calendar year shall not exceed $500,000.

ARTICLE VI

STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

6.1General. The Administrator may grant Options or Stock Appreciation Rights to one or more Service Providers, subject to such terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as the Administrator shall determine. The Administrator will determine the number of Shares covered by each Option and Stock Appreciation Right, the exercise price of each Option and Stock Appreciation Right and the conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of each Option and Stock Appreciation Right. A Stock Appreciation Right will entitle the Participant (or other person entitled to exercise the Stock Appreciation Right) to receive from the Company upon exercise of the exercisable portion of the Stock Appreciation Right an amount determined by multiplying the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise over the exercise price per Share of the Stock Appreciation Right by the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, subject to any limitations of the Plan or that the Administrator may impose and payable in cash, Shares valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise or a combination of the two as the Administrator may determine or provide in the Award Agreement.

6.2Exercise Price. The Administrator will establish each Option’s and Stock Appreciation Right’s exercise price and specify the exercise price in the Award Agreement. Subject to Section 6.6, the exercise price will not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the grant date of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right that is a Substitute Award, the exercise price per share of the Shares subject to such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, may be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant; provided that the exercise price of any Substitute Award shall be determined in accordance with the applicable requirements of Sections 424 and 409A of the Code.

6.3Duration of Options. Subject to Section 6.6, each Option or Stock Appreciation Right will be exercisable at such times and as specified in the Award Agreement, provided that the term of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right will not exceed ten years; provided, further, that, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator or specified in the Award Agreement, (a) no portion of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right which is unexercisable at a Participant’s Termination of Service shall thereafter become exercisable and (b) the portion of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right that is unexercisable at a Participant’s Termination of Service shall automatically expire on the date of such Termination of Service. In addition, in no event shall an Option or Stock Appreciation Right granted to an Employee who is a non-exempt employee for purposes of overtime pay under the U.S. Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 be exercisable earlier than six months after its date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant, prior to the end of the term of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, commits an act of Cause (as determined by the Administrator), or violates any non-competition, non-solicitation or confidentiality provisions of any employment contract, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreement or other agreement between the Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the right to exercise the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, may be terminated by the Company and the Company may suspend the Participant’s right to

F-8

Table of Contents

exercise the Option or Stock Appreciation Right when it reasonably believes that the Participant may have participated in any such act or violation.

6.4Exercise. Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised by delivering to the Company (or such other person or entity designated by the Administrator) a notice of exercise, in a form and manner the Company approves (which may be written, electronic or telephonic and may contain representations and warranties deemed advisable by the Administrator), signed or authenticated by the person authorized to exercise the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, together with, as applicable, (a) payment in full of the exercise price for the number of Shares for which the Option is exercised in a manner specified in Section 6.5 and (b) satisfaction in full of any withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items in a manner specified in Section 10.5. The Administrator may, in its discretion, limit exercise with respect to fractional Shares and require that any partial exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right be with respect to a minimum number of Shares.

6.5Payment Upon Exercise. The Administrator shall determine the methods by which payment of the exercise price of an Option shall be made, including, without limitation:

(a)Cash, check or wire transfer of immediately available funds; provided that the Company may limit the use of one of the foregoing methods if one or more of the methods below is permitted;

(b)If there is a public market for Shares at the time of exercise, unless the Company otherwise determines, (A) delivery (including electronically or telephonically to the extent permitted by the Company) of a notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker acceptable to the Company with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Option and that the broker has been directed to deliver promptly to the Company funds sufficient to pay the exercise price, or (B) the Participant’s delivery to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a broker acceptable to the Company to deliver promptly to the Company an amount sufficient to pay the exercise price by cash, wire transfer of immediately available funds or check; provided that such amount is paid to the Company at such time as may be required by the Company;

(c)To the extent permitted by the Administrator, delivery (either by actual delivery or attestation) of Shares owned by the Participant valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of delivery;

(d)To the extent permitted by the Administrator, surrendering Shares then issuable upon the Option’s exercise valued at their Fair Market Value on the exercise date;

(e)To the extent permitted by the Administrator, delivery of a promissory note or any other lawful consideration; or

(f)To the extent permitted by the Administrator, any combination of the above payment forms.

6.6Additional Terms of Incentive Stock Options. The Administrator may grant Incentive Stock Options only to employees of the Company, any of its present or future parent or subsidiary corporations, as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code, respectively, and any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options under the Code. If an Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Greater Than 10% Stockholder, the exercise price will not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value on the Option’s grant date, and the term of the Option will not exceed five years. All Incentive Stock Options (and Award Agreements related thereto) will be subject to and construed consistently with Section 422 of the Code. By accepting an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant agrees to give prompt notice to the Company of dispositions or other transfers (other than in connection with a Change in Control) of Shares acquired under the Option made within (a) two years from the grant date of the Option or (b) one year after the transfer of such Shares to the Participant, specifying the date of the disposition or other transfer and the amount the Participant realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, in such disposition or other transfer. Neither the Company nor the Administrator will be liable to a Participant, or any other party, if an Incentive Stock Option fails or ceases to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code. Any Incentive Stock Option or portion thereof that fails to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code for any reason, including becoming exercisable with respect to Shares having a fair market value exceeding the $100,000 limitation under Treasury Regulation Section 1.422-4, will be a Nonqualified Stock Option.

(b)Stock Certificates. The Company may require that the Participant deposit in escrow with the Company (or its designee) any stock certificates issued in respect of shares of Restricted Stock, together with a stock power endorsed in blank.

(c)Section 83(b) Election.

7.3Restricted Stock Units.

(a)Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the event of a Change in Control, unless the Administrator elects to (i) terminate an Award in exchange for cash, rights or property, or (ii) cause an Award to become fully exercisable and no longer subject to any forfeiture restrictions prior to the consummation of a Change in Control, pursuant to Section 9.2, (A) such Award (other than any portion subject to performance-based vesting) shall continue in effect or be assumed or an equivalent Award substituted by the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of the successor corporation and (B) the portion of such Award subject to performance-based vesting shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement and, in the absence of applicable terms and conditions, the Administrator’s discretion.

(b)In the event that the successor corporation in a Change in Control refuses to assume or substitute for an Award (other than any portion subject to performance-based vesting), the Administrator shall cause such Award to become fully vested and, if applicable, exercisable immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction and all forfeiture restrictions on such Award to lapse and, to the extent unexercised upon the consummation of such transaction, to terminate in exchange for cash, rights or other property. The Administrator shall notify the Participant of any Award that becomes exercisable pursuant to the preceding sentence that such Award shall be fully exercisable for a period of 15 days from the date of such notice, contingent upon the consummation of the Change in Control, and such Award shall terminate upon the consummation of the Change in Control in accordance with the preceding sentence.

(c)For the purposes of this Section 9.3, an Award shall be considered assumed if, following the Change in Control, the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change in Control was not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Award, for each Share subject to an Award, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its parent equal in fair market value to the per-share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Change in Control.

9.4Administrative Stand Still. In the event of any pending stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other extraordinary transaction or change affecting the Shares or the share price of Common Stock (including any Equity Restructuring or any securities offering or other similar transaction) or for reasons of administrative convenience or to facilitate compliance with any Applicable Law, the Company may refuse to permit the exercise or settlement of one or more Awards for such period of time as the Administrator may determine to be reasonably appropriate under the circumstances.

9.5General. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or the Administrator’s action under the Plan, no Participant will have any rights due to any subdivision or consolidation of Shares of any class, dividend payment, increase or decrease in the number of Shares of any class or dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or other corporation. Except as expressly provided with respect to an Equity Restructuring under Section 9.1 above or the Administrator’s action under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of Shares of any class, or securities convertible into Shares of any class, will affect, and no adjustment will be made regarding, the number of Shares subject to an Award or the Award’s grant or exercise price. The existence of the Plan, any Award Agreements and the Awards granted hereunder will not affect or restrict in any way the Company’s right or power to make or authorize (i) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, (ii) any merger, consolidation, spinoff, dissolution or liquidation of the Company or sale of Company assets or (iii) any sale or issuance of securities, including securities with rights superior to those of the Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares.

PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS

10.1Transferability.

(a)No Award may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or, subject to the Administrator’s consent, pursuant to a DRO, unless and until such Award has been exercised or the Shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such Shares have lapsed. During the life of a Participant, Awards will be exercisable only by the Participant, unless it has been disposed of pursuant to a DRO. After the death of a Participant, any exercisable portion of an Award may, prior to the time when such portion becomes unexercisable under the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement, be exercised by the Participant’s personal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Participant’s will or under the then-Applicable Law of descent and distribution. References to a Participant, to the extent relevant in the context, will include references to a transferee approved by the Administrator.

(b)Notwithstanding Section 10.1(a), the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine to permit a Participant or a Permitted Transferee of such Participant to transfer an Award other than an Incentive Stock Option (unless such Incentive Stock Option is intended to become a Nonqualified Stock Option) to any one or more Permitted Transferees of such Participant, subject to the following terms and conditions: (i) an Award transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall not be assignable or transferable by the Permitted Transferee other than (A) to another Permitted Transferee of the applicable Participant or (B) by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, subject to the consent of the Administrator, pursuant to a domestic relations order; (ii) an Award transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall continue to be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Award as applicable to the original Participant (other than the ability to further transfer the Award to any Person other than another Permitted Transferee of the applicable Participant); (iii) the Participant (or transferring Permitted Transferee) and the receiving Permitted Transferee shall execute any and all documents requested by the Administrator, including, without limitation documents to (A) confirm the status of the transferee as a Permitted Transferee, (B) satisfy any requirements for an exemption for the transfer under Applicable Law and (C) evidence the transfer; and (iv) any transfer of an Award to a Permitted Transferee shall be without consideration, except as required by Applicable Law. In addition, and further notwithstanding Section 10.1(a), the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine to permit a Participant to transfer Incentive Stock Options to a trust that constitutes a Permitted Transferee if, under Section 671 of the Code and other Applicable Law, the Participant is considered the sole beneficial owner of the Incentive Stock Option while it is held in the trust.

(c)Notwithstanding Section 10.1(a), if permitted by the Administrator, a Participant may, in the manner determined by the Administrator, designate a Designated Beneficiary. A Designated Beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to the Participant and any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator. If the Participant is married or a domestic partner in a domestic partnership qualified under Applicable Law and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the Participant’s spouse or domestic partner, as applicable, as the Participant’s Designated Beneficiary with respect to more than 50% of the Participant’s interest in the Award shall not be effective without the prior written or electronic consent of the Participant’s spouse or domestic partner. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant at any time; provided that the change or revocation is delivered in writing to the Administrator prior to the Participant’s death.

F-13

Table of Contents

10.2Documentation. Each Award will be evidenced in an Award Agreement in such form as the Administrator determines in its discretion. Each Award may contain such terms and conditions as are determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, to the extent not inconsistent with those set forth in the Plan.

10.3Discretion. Except as the Plan otherwise provides, each Award may be made alone or in addition or in relation to any other Award. The terms of each Award to a Participant need not be identical, and the Administrator need not treat Participants or Awards (or portions thereof) uniformly.

10.4Changes in Participant’s Status. The Administrator will determine how the disability, death, retirement, authorized leave of absence or any other change or purported change in a Participant’s Service Provider status affects an Award and the extent to which, and the period during which, the Participant, the Participant’s legal representative, conservator, guardian or Designated Beneficiary may exercise rights under the Award, if applicable. Except to the extent otherwise required by Applicable Law or expressly authorized by the Company or by the Company’s written policy on leaves of absence, no service credit shall be given for vesting purposes for any period the Participant is on a leave of absence.

10.5Withholding. Each Participant must pay the Company or a Subsidiary, as applicable, or make provision satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of, any Tax-Related Items required by Applicable Law to be withheld in connection with such Participant’s Awards and/or Shares by the date of the event creating the liability for Tax-Related Items. At the Company’s discretion and subject to any Company insider trading policy (including black-out periods), any withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items may be satisfied by (i) deducting an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding obligation from any payment of any kind otherwise due to a Participant; (ii) accepting a payment from the Participant in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, or by check made payable to the order of the Company or a Subsidiary, as applicable; (iii) accepting the delivery of Shares, including Shares delivered by attestation; (iv) retaining Shares from the Award creating the withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items, valued on the date of delivery, (v) if there is a public market for Shares at the time the withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied, selling Shares issued pursuant to the Award creating the withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items, either voluntarily by the Participant or mandatorily by the Company; (vi) accepting delivery of a promissory note or any other lawful consideration; or (vii) any combination of the foregoing payment forms. The amount withheld pursuant to any of the foregoing payment forms shall be determined by the Company and may be up to, but no greater than, the aggregate amount of such obligations based on the maximum statutory withholding rates in the applicable Participant’s jurisdiction for all Tax-Related Items that are applicable to such taxable income. If any tax withholding obligation will be satisfied under clause (v) of the preceding paragraph, each Participant’s acceptance of an Award under the Plan will constitute the Participant’s authorization to the Company and instruction and authorization to any brokerage firm selected by the Company to effect the sale to complete the transactions described in clause (v).

10.6Amendment of Award; Prohibition on Repricing. The Administrator may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding Award, including by substituting another Award of the same or a different type, changing the exercise or settlement date, and converting an Incentive Stock Option to a Nonqualified Stock Option. The Participant’s consent to such action will be required unless (i) the action, taking into account any related action, does not materially and adversely affect the Participant’s rights under the Award, or (ii) the change is permitted under Article IX or pursuant to Section 11.6. The Administrator shall not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, have the authority to (a) amend any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right to reduce its exercise price per Share, or (b) cancel any Option or Stock Appreciation Right in exchange for cash or another Award

10.7Conditions on Delivery of Stock. The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Shares under the Plan or remove restrictions from Shares previously delivered under the Plan until (i) all Award conditions have been met or removed to the Company’s satisfaction, (ii) as determined by the Company, all other legal matters regarding the issuance and delivery of such Shares have been satisfied, including, without limitation, any applicable securities laws and stock exchange or stock market rules and regulations, (iii) any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable have been obtained, and (iv) the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company such representations or agreements as the Administrator deems necessary or appropriate to satisfy Applicable Law. The inability or impracticability of the Company to obtain or maintain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained, and shall constitute circumstances in which the Administrator may determine to amend or cancel Awards pertaining to such Shares, with or without consideration to the Participant.

10.8Acceleration. The Administrator may at any time provide that any Award will become immediately vested and fully or partially exercisable, free of some or all restrictions or conditions, or otherwise fully or partially realizable.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

11.1No Right to Employment or Other Status. No person will have any claim or right to be granted an Award, and the grant of an Award will not be construed as giving a Participant the right to continue employment or any other relationship with the Company or a Subsidiary. The Company and its Subsidiaries expressly reserve the right at any time to dismiss or otherwise terminate its relationship with a Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan or any Award, except as expressly provided in an Award Agreement or other written agreement between the Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary.

11.2No Rights as Stockholder; Certificates. Subject to the Award Agreement, no Participant or Designated Beneficiary will have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares to be distributed under an Award until becoming the record holder of such Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless the Administrator otherwise determines or Applicable Law requires, the Company will not be required to deliver to any Participant certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award and instead such Shares may be recorded in the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or stock plan administrator). The Company may place legends on any share certificate or book entry to reference restrictions applicable to the Shares (including, without limitation, restrictions applicable to Restricted Stock).

11.3Effective Date. The Plan was approved by the Board on March 7, 2023. The Plan will become effective (the “Effective Date”) on the date immediately prior to the date of the closing of the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into on March 7, 2023, by and among the Company, The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation and certain other parties (the “Merger Agreement”), provided that it is approved by the Company’s stockholders prior to the Effective Date and such approval occurs within 12 months following the date the Board approved the Plan. If the Plan is not approved by the Company’s stockholders within the foregoing time frame, or if the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, the Plan will not become effective. No Incentive Stock Option may be granted pursuant to the Plan after the tenth anniversary of the earlier of (i) the date the Plan was approved by the Board and (ii) the date the Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders.

11.4Amendment of Plan. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time and from time to time; provided that (a) no such amendment, suspension, or termination shall be made without stockholder approval if such approval is necessary to comply with any tax or regulatory requirement applicable to the Plan (including, without limitation, as necessary to comply with any rules or requirements of any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the Stock may be listed or quoted) and (b) no amendment, other than an increase to the Overall Share Limit or pursuant to Article IX or Section 11.6, may materially and adversely affect any Award outstanding at the time of such amendment without the affected Participant’s consent. No Awards may be granted under the Plan during any suspension period or after Plan termination. Awards outstanding at the time of any Plan suspension or termination will continue to be governed by the Plan and the Award Agreement, as in effect before such suspension or termination. The Board will obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Law.

11.5Provisions for Foreign Participants. The Administrator may modify Awards granted to Participants who are nationals of a country other than the United States or employed or residing outside the United States, establish subplans or procedures under the Plan or take any other necessary or appropriate action to address Applicable Law, including (a) differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such jurisdictions with respect to tax, securities, currency, employee benefit or other matters, (b) listing and other requirements of any non-U.S. securities exchange, and (c) any necessary local governmental or regulatory exemptions or approvals.

11.6Section 409A.

(a)General. The Company intends that all Awards be structured to comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A, such that no adverse tax consequences, interest, or penalties under Section 409A apply. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary, the Administrator may, without a Participant’s consent, amend this Plan or Awards, adopt policies and procedures, or take any other actions (including amendments, policies, procedures and retroactive actions) as are necessary or appropriate to preserve the intended tax treatment of Awards, including any such actions intended to (A) exempt this Plan or any Award from Section 409A, or (B) comply with Section 409A, including regulations, guidance, compliance programs and other interpretative authority that may be issued after an Award’s grant date. The Company makes no representations or warranties as to an Award’s tax treatment under Section 409A or otherwise. The Company will have no obligation under this Section 11.6 or otherwise to avoid the taxes, penalties or interest under Section 409A with respect to any Award and will have no liability to any Participant or any

F-15

other person if any Award, compensation or other benefits under the Plan are determined to constitute noncompliant “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to taxes, penalties or interest under Section 409A.

(b)Separation from Service. If an Award constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A, any payment or settlement of such Award upon a Participant’s Termination of Service will, to the extent necessary to avoid taxes under Section 409A, be made only upon the Participant’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A), whether such “separation from service” occurs upon or after the Participant’s Termination of Service. For purposes of this Plan or any Award Agreement relating to any such payments or benefits, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms means a “separation from service.”

(c)Payments to Specified Employees. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in the Plan or any Award Agreement, any payment(s) of “nonqualified deferred compensation” required to be made under an Award to a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A and as the Administrator determines) due to his or her “separation from service” will, to the extent necessary to avoid taxes under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, be delayed for the six-month period immediately following such “separation from service” (or, if earlier, until the specified employee’s death) and will instead be paid (as set forth in the Award Agreement) on the day immediately following such six-month period or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter (without interest). Any payments of “nonqualified deferred compensation” under such Award payable more than six months following the Participant’s “separation from service” will be paid at the time or times the payments are otherwise scheduled to be made.

11.7Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, no individual acting as a director, officer or other employee of the Company or any Subsidiary will be liable to any Participant, former Participant, spouse, beneficiary, or any other person for any claim, loss, liability, or expense incurred in connection with the Plan or any Award, and such individual will not be personally liable with respect to the Plan because of any contract or other instrument executed in his or her capacity as an Administrator, director, officer or other employee of the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each director, officer or other employee of the Company or any Subsidiary that has been or will be granted or delegated any duty or power relating to the Plan’s administration or interpretation, against any cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the Administrator’s approval) arising from any act or omission concerning this Plan unless arising from such person’s own fraud or bad faith; provided that he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf.

11.8Data Privacy. As a condition for receiving any Award, each Participant explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in this Section 11.8 by and among the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates exclusively for implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates may hold certain personal information about a Participant, including the Participant’s name, address and telephone number; birthdate; social security, insurance number or other identification number; salary; nationality; job title(s); any Shares held in the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates; and Award details, to implement, manage and administer the Plan and Awards (the “Data”). The Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates may transfer the Data amongst themselves as necessary to implement, administer and manage a Participant’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates may transfer the Data to third parties assisting the Company with Plan implementation, administration and management. These recipients may be located in the Participant’s country, or elsewhere, and the Participant’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the recipients’ country. By accepting an Award, each Participant authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan, including any required Data transfer to a broker or other third party with whom the Company or the Participant may elect to deposit any Shares. The Data related to a Participant will be held only as long as necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan. A Participant may, at any time, view the Data that the Company holds regarding such Participant, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data regarding such Participant, recommend any necessary corrections to the Data regarding the Participant or refuse or withdraw the consents in this Section 11.8 in writing, without cost, by contacting the local human resources representative. The Company may cancel Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan and, in the Administrator’s sole discretion, the Participant may forfeit any outstanding Awards if the Participant refuses or withdraws the consents in this Section 11.8. For more information on the consequences of refusing or withdrawing consent, Participants may contact their local human resources representative.

11.9Severability. If any portion of the Plan or any action taken under it is held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan will be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provisions had been excluded, and the illegal or invalid action will be null and void.

F-16

Table of Contents

11.10Governing Documents. If any contradiction occurs between the Plan and any Award Agreement or other written agreement between a Participant and the Company (or any Subsidiary), the Plan will govern, unless such Award Agreement or other written agreement was approved by the Administrator and expressly provides that a specific provision of the Plan will not apply.

11.11Governing Law. The Plan and all Awards will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflict of law rules thereof or of any other jurisdiction.

11.12Clawback Provisions. All Awards (including the gross amount of any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit the Participant actually or constructively receives upon receipt or exercise of any Award or the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying the Award) will be subject to recoupment by the Company to the extent required to comply with Applicable Law or any policy of the Company providing for the reimbursement of incentive compensation, whether or not such policy was in place at the time of grant of an Award.

11.13Titles and Headings. The titles and headings in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, if any conflict, the Plan’s text, rather than such titles or headings, will control.

11.14Conformity to Applicable Law. Participant acknowledges that the Plan is intended to conform to the extent necessary with Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan and all Awards will be administered only in a manner intended to conform with Applicable Law. To the extent Applicable Law permits, the Plan and all Award Agreements will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to Applicable Law.

11.15Relationship to Other Benefits. No payment under the Plan will be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary, except as expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

11.16Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or Award Agreement shall give the Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary.

11.17Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan and any Award granted or awarded to any individual who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act and any amendments thereto) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

11.18Prohibition on Executive Officer Loans. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participant who is a Director or an “executive officer” of the Company within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act shall be permitted to make payment with respect to any Awards granted under the Plan, or continue any extension of credit with respect to such payment, with a loan from the Company or a loan arranged by the Company in violation of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act.

11.19Broker-Assisted Sales. In the event of a broker-assisted sale of Shares in connection with the payment of amounts owed by a Participant under or with respect to the Plan or Awards, including amounts to be paid under the final sentence of Section 10.5: (a) any Shares to be sold through the broker-assisted sale will be sold on the day the payment first becomes due, or as soon thereafter as practicable; (b) such Shares may be sold as part of a block trade with other Participants in the Plan in which all Participants receive an average price; (c) the applicable Participant will be responsible for all broker’s fees and other costs of sale, and by accepting an Award, each Participant agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any losses, costs, damages, or expenses relating to any such sale; (d) to the extent the Company or its designee receives proceeds of such sale that exceed the amount owed, the Company will pay such excess in cash to the applicable Participant as soon as reasonably practicable; (e) the Company and its designees are under no obligation to arrange for such sale at any particular price; and (f) in the event the proceeds of such sale are insufficient to satisfy the Participant’s applicable obligation, the Participant may be required to pay immediately upon demand to the Company or its designee an amount in cash sufficient to satisfy any remaining portion of the Participant’s obligation.

The Participant further acknowledges that the rule set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied by taking the Option and other “incentive stock options” into account in the order in which they were granted, as determined under Section 422(d) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(c)The Participant hereby acknowledges that the Company (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax Liabilities in connection with any aspect of the Option and (ii) does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of any Award, including the Option, to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax Liabilities or achieve any particular tax result. Furthermore, if the Participant becomes subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the date of grant of an Award, including the Option, and the date of any relevant taxable event, the Participant acknowledges that the Company may be required to withhold or account for Tax Liabilities in more than one jurisdiction.

5.3Transferability.

(a)Subject to Section 4.1 hereof, the Option may not be sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in any manner other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, subject to the consent of the Administrator, pursuant to a DRO, unless and until the Option has been exercised and the Shares underlying the Option have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such Shares have lapsed.

(b)During the lifetime of the Participant, only the Participant may exercise the Option (or any portion thereof), unless it has been disposed of pursuant to a DRO; after the death of the Participant, any exercisable portion of the Option may, prior to the time when such portion becomes unexercisable under the Plan or this Agreement, be exercised by the Participant’s personal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Participant’s will or under the then-applicable laws of descent and distribution.

(c)Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Participant may, in the manner determined by the Administrator, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to the Option upon the Participant’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, except to the extent the Plan and this Agreement otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator. If the Participant is married or a domestic partner in a domestic partnership qualified under Applicable Law and resides in a community property state, a

designation of a person other than the Participant’s spouse or domestic partner, as applicable, as his or her beneficiary with respect to more than 50% of the Participant’s interest in the Option shall not be effective without the prior written consent of the Participant’s spouse or domestic partner. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the Participant’s will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by the Participant at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Administrator prior to the Participant’s death.

The Participant acknowledges that the Plan and this Agreement are intended to conform to the extent necessary with all provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and any and all Applicable Law and regulations and rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, and state securities laws and regulations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan shall be administered, and the Option is granted and may be exercised, only in such a manner as to conform to such Applicable Law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such Applicable Law.

5.11Amendment, Suspension and Termination. To the extent permitted by the Plan, this Agreement may be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Administrator or the Board; provided, however, that, except as may otherwise be provided by the Plan, no amendment, modification, suspension or termination of this Agreement shall adversely affect the Option in any material way without the prior written consent of the Participant.

5.13Notification of Disposition. If this Option is designated as an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant shall give prompt notice to the Company of any disposition or other transfer of any Shares acquired under this Agreement if such disposition or transfer is made (a) within two years from the Grant Date with respect to such Shares or (b) within one year after the transfer of such Shares to the Participant. Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, by the Participant in such disposition or other transfer.

5.14Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, if the Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Plan, the Option and this Agreement shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

5.15Not a Contract of Service Relationship. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue to serve as an employee or other service provider of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or interfere with or restrict in any way with the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or to terminate for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, the services of the Participant’s at any time.

5.16Entire Agreement. The Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof, provided that the Option shall be subject to any accelerated vesting provisions in any written agreement between the Participant and the Company or a Company plan pursuant to which the Participant participates, in each case, in accordance with the terms therein.

5.17Section 409A. This Option is not intended to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code (together with any Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the date hereof, “Section 409A”). However, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Grant Notice or this Agreement, if at any time the Administrator determines that the Option (or any portion thereof) may be subject to Section 409A, the Administrator shall have the right in its sole discretion (without any obligation to do so or to indemnify the Participant or any other person for failure to do so) to adopt such amendments to the Plan, the Grant Notice or this Agreement, or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, as the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate either for the Option to be exempt from the application of Section 409A or to comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

5.18Limitation on the Participant’s Rights. Participation in the Plan confers no rights or interests other than as herein provided. This Agreement creates only a contractual obligation on the part of the Company as to amounts payable and shall not be construed as creating a trust. Neither the Plan nor any underlying program, in and of itself, has any assets. The Participant shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to amounts credited and benefits payable, if any, with respect to the Option, and rights no greater than the right to receive the Shares as a general unsecured creditor with respect to options, as and when exercised pursuant to the terms hereof.

2.1.1Filing. Within forty-five (45) calendar days following the Closing Date (the “Filing Date”), the Company shall submit to or file with the Commission a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-1 (the “Form S-1 Shelf”) or a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-3 (the “Form S-3 Shelf”), if the Company is then eligible to use a Form S-3 Shelf, in each case, covering the resale of all the Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) business days prior to such submission or filing) on a delayed or continuous basis and shall use its reasonable best efforts to have such Shelf declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the ninetieth (90^th) calendar day following the Filing Date. Such Shelf shall provide for the resale of the Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. The Company shall maintain a Shelf in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep a Shelf continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. In the event the Company files a Form S-1 Shelf, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as practicable after the Company is eligible to use Form S-3. The Company’s obligation under this Section 2.1.1, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.4.

2.1.2Subsequent Shelf Registration. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, the Company shall, subject to Section 3.4, use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf Registration (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”) registering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) business days prior to such filing), and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof (it being agreed that the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) if the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date) and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form. The Company’s obligation under this Section 2.1.2, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.4.

2.1.3Additional Registration Statement(s). Subject to Section 3.4, in the event that any Holder holds Registrable Securities that are not registered for resale on a delayed or continuous basis, the Company, upon written request of such Holder, shall promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the resale of such Registrable Securities to be covered by filing a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement and cause the same to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing and such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be subject to the terms hereof; provided, however, that the Company shall only be required to cause such Registrable Securities to be so covered twice per calendar year for each of the Sponsor and the Target Holders.

2.1.4Requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns. Subject to Section 3.4, at any time and from time to time when an effective Shelf is on file with the Commission, the Sponsor or a Target Holder (any of the Sponsor or a Target Holder being in such case, a “Demanding Holder”) may request to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”); provided that the Company shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by the Demanding Holder, either individually or together with other Demanding Holders, with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $25 million (the “Minimum Takedown Threshold”). All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to the Company, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the

Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Subject to Section 2.4.4, the Company shall have the right to select the Underwriters for such offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject to the initial Demanding Holder’s prior approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Sponsor and the Target Holders may each demand not more than one (1) Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to this Section 2.1.4 in any twelve (12) month period, for an aggregate of not more than two (2) Underwritten Shelf Takedowns pursuant to this Section 2.1.4 in any twelve (12) month period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may effect any Underwritten Offering pursuant to any then effective Registration Statement, including a Form S-3, that is then available for such offering.

2.1.5Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good faith, advises the Company, the Demanding Holders and the Holders requesting piggy back rights pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (the “Requesting Holders”) (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other shares of Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell and all other shares of Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, that have been requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other stockholders, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering, before including any shares of Common Stock or other equity securities proposed to be sold by Company or by other holders of Common Stock or other equity securities, the Registrable Securities of (i) first, the Demanding Holders that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that all of the Demanding Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown) and (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Requesting Holders (if any) (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Requesting Holder (if any) has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that all of the Requesting Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.1.6Withdrawal. Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall have the right to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification (a “Withdrawal Notice”) to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown; provided that the Sponsor or a Target Holder may elect to have the Company continue an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if the Minimum Takedown Threshold would still be satisfied by the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown by the Sponsor, the Target Holders or any of their respective Permitted Transferees, as applicable. If withdrawn, a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall constitute a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown by the withdrawing Demanding Holder for purposes of Section 2.1.4, unless such Demanding Holder reimburses the Company for all Registration Expenses with respect to such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (or, if there is more than one Demanding Holder, a pro rata portion of such Registration Expenses based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown); provided that, if the Sponsor or a Target Holder elects to continue an Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, such Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall instead count as an Underwritten Shelf Takedown demanded by the Sponsor or such Target Holder, as applicable, for purposes of Section 2.1.4. Following the receipt of any Withdrawal Notice, the Company shall promptly forward such Withdrawal Notice to any other Holders that had elected to participate in such Shelf Takedown. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Shelf Takedown prior to its withdrawal under this Section 2.1.6, other than if a Demanding Holder elects to pay such Registration Expenses pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 2.1.6.

underwriters to firmly underwrite such offering, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay any other registered offering pursuant to Section 2.1.4 or 2.4.

3.4.4The right to delay or suspend any filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3.4.2 or a registered offering pursuant to Section 3.4.3 shall be exercised by the Company, in the aggregate, for not more than ninety (90) consecutive calendar days or more than one hundred and twenty (120) total calendar days in each case, during any twelve (12)-month period.

3.5Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings; provided that any documents publicly filed or furnished with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR shall be deemed to have been furnished or delivered to the Holders pursuant to this Section 3.5. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell shares of Common Stock held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule then in effect). Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

ARTICLE IV

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

4.1Indemnification.

4.1.1The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors and agents and each person or entity who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act), against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person or entity that controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

4.1.2In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish (or cause to be furnished) to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (the “Holder Information”) and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors, officers and agents and each person or entity who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement is contained in (or not contained in, in the case of an omission) any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person or entity who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.

4.1.3Any person or entity entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s or entity’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party)

G-13

Table of Contents

and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

4.1.4The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person or entity of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

4.1.5If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by in the case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this Section 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 4.1.5. No person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 4.1.5 from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

ARTICLE V

The parties acknowledge and agree that any Permitted Transferee of a Lock-up Party shall be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in this ARTICLE V with respect to the Lock-Up Shares upon and after acquiring such Lock-Up Shares.

No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the Company in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Company.

In addition to persons or entities who may become Holders pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof, subject to the prior written consent of each of the Sponsor (so long as the Sponsor and its affiliates hold, in the aggregate, at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company) and each Target Holder (so long as such Target Holder and its respective affiliates hold, in the aggregate, at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company), the Company may make any person or entity who acquires Common Stock or rights to acquire Common Stock after the date hereof a party to this Agreement (each such person or entity, an “Additional Holder”) by obtaining an executed joinder to this Agreement from such Additional Holder in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (a “Joinder”).

Upon the execution and delivery and subject to the terms of a Joinder by such Additional Holder, the Common Stock then owned, or underlying any rights then owned, by such Additional Holder (the “Additional Holder Common Stock”) shall be Registrable Securities to the extent provided herein and therein and such Additional Holder shall be a Holder under this Agreement with respect to such Additional Holder Common Stock.

6.11Severability. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

6.12Entire Agreement; Restatement. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter.

Table of Contents

Exclusion of Table A Articles

1.3	The regulations contained in Table A in the First Schedule of the Act and any other regulations contained in any statute or subordinate legislation are expressly excluded and do not apply to the Company.

2Shares

Power to issue Shares and options, with or without special rights

2.1

Subject to the provisions of the Act and these Articles and, where applicable, the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange and/or any competent regulatory authority, and without prejudice to any rights attached to any existing Shares, the directors have general and unconditional authority to allot (with or without confirming rights of renunciation), issue, grant options over or otherwise deal with any unissued Shares of the Company to such persons, at such times and on such terms and conditions as they may decide, save that the directors may not allot, issue, grant options over or otherwise deal with any unissued Shares to the extent that it may affect the ability of the Company to carry out a Class B Share Conversion described at Article 35. No Share may be issued at a discount except in accordance with the provisions of the Act.

2.2	Without limitation to the preceding Article, the directors may so deal with the unissued Shares of the Company:

(a)

either at a premium or at par;

(b)

with or without preferred, deferred or other special rights or restrictions whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital or otherwise.

Notwithstanding the above, following an IPO and prior to a Business Combination, the Company may not issue additional Shares that would entitle the holders thereof to (a) receive funds from the Trust Account or (b) vote as a class with holders of Public Shares (i) on any Business Combination or on any other proposal presented to holders of Shares prior to or in connection with a Business Combination or (ii) to approve an amendment to these Articles to (x) extend the time to consummate a Business Combination beyond 18 months (or beyond 21 months if the time to consummate a Business Combination is extended in accordance with Article 36.2) from the closing of the IPO or (y) amend the foregoing provisions of this Article 2.2.

2.3

The Company may issue rights, options, warrants or convertible securities or securities of similar nature conferring the right upon the holders thereof to subscribe for, purchase or receive any class of Shares or other securities in the Company at such times and on such terms and conditions as the directors may decide.

2.4

The Company may issue units of securities in the Company, which may be comprised of Shares, rights, options, warrants or convertible securities or securities of similar nature conferring the right upon the holders thereof to subscribe for, purchase or receive any class of Shares or other securities in the Company, on such terms and conditions as the directors may decide. The securities comprising any such units which are issued pursuant to the IPO can only be traded separately from one another on the 52nd day following the date of the prospectus relating to the IPO unless the managing Underwriter determines that an earlier date is acceptable, subject to the Company having filed a current report on Form 8-K containing an audited balance sheet reflecting the Company’s receipt of the gross proceeds of the IPO with the SEC and a press release announcing when such separate trading will begin. Prior to such date, the units can be traded, but the securities comprising such units cannot be traded separately from one another.

2.5	Each Share in the Company confers upon the Member:

(a)

subject to Article 31.1 and Article 33, the right to one vote at a meeting of the Members of the Company or on any resolution of Members;

(b)

the right to be redeemed on an Automatic Redemption Event in accordance with Article 36.2 or pursuant to either a Tender Redemption Offer or Redemption Offer in accordance with Article 36.5 or pursuant to an Amendment Redemption Event in accordance with Article 36.11;

(c)

a pro rata right in any dividend paid by the Company; and

H-5

Table of Contents

(d)

subject to satisfaction of and compliance with Article 36, a pro rata right in the distribution of the surplus assets of the Company on its liquidation provided that in the event that the Company enters liquidation prior to or without having consummated a Business Combination then, in such circumstances, in the event any surplus assets (Residual Assets) of the Company remain following the Company having complied with its applicable obligations to redeem Public Shares and distribute the funds held in the Trust Account in respect of such redemptions pursuant to Article 36, the Public Shares shall not have any right to receive any share of those Residual Assets which are held outside the Trust Account and such Residual Assets shall be distributed (on a pro rata basis) only in respect of those Shares that are not Public Shares.

Power to issue fractions of a Share

2.6

Subject to the Act, the Company may, but shall not otherwise be obliged to, issue fractions of a Share of any class or round up or down fractional holdings of Shares to its nearest whole number. A fraction of a Share shall be subject to and carry the corresponding fraction of liabilities (whether with respect to calls or otherwise), limitations, preferences, privileges, qualifications, restrictions, rights and other attributes of a Share of that class of Shares.

Power to pay commissions and brokerage fees

2.7	The Company may, in so far as the Act permits, pay a commission to any person in consideration of that person:

(a)

subscribing or agreeing to subscribe, whether absolutely or conditionally; or

(b)

procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions, whether absolute or conditional

for any Shares in the Company. That commission may be satisfied by the payment of cash or the allotment of Fully Paid or partly-paid Shares or partly in one way and partly in another.

2.8	The Company may employ a broker in the issue of its capital and pay him any proper commission or brokerage.

Trusts not recognised

2.9	Except as required by Applicable Law:

(a)

the Company shall not be bound by or compelled to recognise in any way (even when notified) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any Share, or (except only as is otherwise provided by the Articles) any other rights in respect of any Share other than an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the holder; and

(b)

no person other than the Member shall be recognised by the Company as having any right in a Share.

Power to vary class rights

2.10	If the share capital is divided into different classes of Shares then, unless the terms on which a class of Shares was issued state otherwise, the rights attaching to a class of Shares may only be varied if one of the following applies:

(a)

the Members holding two thirds of the issued Shares of that class consent in writing to the variation; or

(b)

the variation is made with the sanction of a Special Resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the Members holding the issued Shares of that class.

2.11	For the purpose of paragraph (b) of the preceding Article, all the provisions of these Articles relating to general meetings apply, mutatis mutandis, to every such separate meeting except that:

(a)

the necessary quorum shall be one or more persons holding, or representing by proxy, not less than one third of the issued Shares of the class; and

H-6

Table of Contents

(b)

any Member holding issued Shares of the class, present in person or by proxy or, in the case of a corporate Member, by its duly authorised representative, may demand a poll.

2.12

Notwithstanding Article 2.10, unless the proposed variation is for the purposes of approving, or in conjunction with, the consummation of a Business Combination, prior to a Business Combination but subject always to the limitations set out in Article 33 in respect of amendments to the Memorandum and Articles, the rights attached to the Shares as specified in Article 2.5 may only, whether or not the Company is being wound up, be varied by a Special Resolution, and any such variation that has to be approved under this Article shall also be subject to compliance with Article 36.11.

Effect of new Share issue on existing class rights

2.13	Unless the terms on which a class of Shares was issued state otherwise, the rights conferred on the Member holding Shares of any class shall not be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu with the existing Shares of that class.

Capital contributions without issue of further Shares

2.14	With the consent of a Member, the directors may accept a voluntary contribution to the capital of the Company from that Member without issuing Shares in consideration for that contribution. In that event, the contribution shall be dealt with in the following manner:

(a)

It shall be treated as if it were a share premium.

(b)

Unless the Member agrees otherwise:

(i)

if the Member holds Shares in a single class of Shares — it shall be credited to the share premium account for that class of Shares;

(ii)

if the Member holds Shares of more than one class — it shall be credited rateably to the share premium accounts for those classes of Shares (in the proportion that the sum of the issue prices for each class of Shares that the Member holds bears to the total issue prices for all classes of Shares that the Member holds).

(c)

It shall be subject to the provisions of the Act and these Articles applicable to share premiums.

No bearer Shares or warrants

2.15	The Company shall not issue Shares or warrants to bearers.

Treasury Shares

2.16	Shares that the Company purchases, redeems or acquires by way of surrender in accordance with the Act shall be held as Treasury Shares and not treated as cancelled if:

the directors so determine prior to the purchase, redemption or surrender of those shares; and

(b)

the relevant provisions of the Memorandum and Articles and the Act are otherwise complied with.

Rights attaching to Treasury Shares and related matters

2.17	No dividend may be declared or paid, and no other distribution (whether in cash or otherwise) of the Company’s assets (including any distribution of assets to members on a winding up) may be made to the Company in respect of a Treasury Share.

H-7

Table of Contents

2.18	The Company shall be entered in the Register as the holder of the Treasury Shares. However:

(a)

the Company shall not be treated as a member for any purpose and shall not exercise any right in respect of the Treasury Shares, and any purported exercise of such a right shall be void;

(b)

a Treasury Share shall not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting of the Company and shall not be counted in determining the total number of issued shares at any given time, whether for the purposes of these Articles or the Act.

2.19	Nothing in the preceding Article prevents an allotment of Shares as fully paid bonus shares in respect of a Treasury Share and Shares allotted as fully paid bonus shares in respect of a Treasury Share shall be treated as Treasury Shares.

2.20	Treasury Shares may be disposed of by the Company in accordance with the Act and otherwise on such terms and conditions as the directors determine.

3Register of Members

3.1	The Company shall maintain or cause to be maintained the Register of Members in accordance with the Act.

3.3	The title to Public Shares may be evidenced and transferred in accordance with the laws applicable to the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange and, for these purposes, the Register of Members may be maintained in accordance with Article 40B of the Act.

4Share certificates

Issue of share certificates

4.1

A Member shall only be entitled to a share certificate if the directors resolve that share certificates shall be issued. Share certificates representing Shares, if any, shall be in such form as the directors may determine. If the directors resolve that share certificates shall be issued, upon being entered in the register of Members as the holder of a Share, the directors may issue to any Member:

(a)

without payment, to one certificate for all the Shares of each class held by that Member (and, upon transferring a part of the Member’s holding of Shares of any class, to a certificate for the balance of that holding); and

(b)

upon payment of such reasonable sum as the directors may determine for every certificate after the first, to several certificates each for one or more of that Member’s Shares.

4.2	Every certificate shall specify the number, class and distinguishing numbers (if any) of the Shares to which it relates and whether they are Fully Paid or partly paid up. A certificate may be executed under seal or executed in such other manner as the directors determine.

4.3	Every certificate shall bear legends required under the Applicable Laws.

4.4	The Company shall not be bound to issue more than one certificate for Shares held jointly by several persons and delivery of a certificate for a Share to one joint holder shall be a sufficient delivery to all of them.

(a)

evidence;

H-8

payment of the expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in investigating the evidence; and

(d)

payment of a reasonable fee, if any, for issuing a replacement share certificate

5Lien on Shares

Nature and scope of lien

5.1	The Company has a first and paramount lien on all Shares (whether Fully Paid or not) registered in the name of a Member (whether solely or jointly with others). The lien is for all moneys payable to the Company by the Member or the Member’s estate:

(a)

either alone or jointly with any other person, whether or not that other person is a Member; and

(b)

whether or not those moneys are presently payable.

5.2	At any time the directors may declare any Share to be wholly or partly exempt from the provisions of this Article.

Company may sell Shares to satisfy lien

5.3	The Company may sell any Shares over which it has a lien if all of the following conditions are met:

(a)

the sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable;

(b)

the Company gives notice to the Member holding the Share (or to the person entitled to it in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of that Member) demanding payment and stating that if the notice is not complied with the Shares may be sold; and

(c)

that sum is not paid within 14 Clear Days after that notice is deemed to be given under these Articles.

5.4	The Shares may be sold in such manner as the directors determine.

5.5	To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, the directors shall incur no personal liability to the Member concerned in respect of the sale.

Authority to execute instrument of transfer

5.6

Consequences of sale of Shares to satisfy lien

5.7	On sale pursuant to the preceding Articles:

(a)

the name of the Member concerned shall be removed from the Register of Members as the holder of those Shares; and

(b)

that person shall deliver to the Company for cancellation the certificate for those Shares.

H-9

Table of Contents

Despite this, that person shall remain liable to the Company for all monies which, at the date of sale, were presently payable by him to the Company in respect of those Shares. That person shall also be liable to pay interest on those monies from the date of sale until payment at the rate at which interest was payable before that sale or, failing that, at the Default Rate. The directors may waive payment wholly or in part or enforce payment without any allowance for the value of the Shares at the time of sale or for any consideration received on their disposal.

Application of proceeds of sale

5.8	The net proceeds of the sale, after payment of the costs, shall be applied in payment of so much of the sum for which the lien exists as is presently payable. Any residue shall be paid to the person whose Shares have been sold:

(a)

if no certificate for the Shares was issued, at the date of the sale; or

(b)

if a certificate for the Shares was issued, upon surrender to the Company of that certificate for cancellation

but, in either case, subject to the Company retaining a like lien for all sums not presently payable as existed on the Shares before the sale.

6Calls on Shares and forfeiture

Power to make calls and effect of calls

6.1

Subject to the terms of allotment, the directors may make calls on the Members in respect of any moneys unpaid on their Shares including any premium.

6.2

Before receipt by the Company of any sum due under a call, that call may be revoked in whole or in part and payment of a call may be postponed in whole or in part. Where a call is to be paid in instalments, the Company may revoke the call in respect of all or any remaining instalments in whole or in part and may postpone payment of all or any of the remaining instalments in whole or in part.

6.3	A Member on whom a call is made shall remain liable for that call notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the Shares in respect of which the call was made. A person shall not be liable for calls made after such person is no longer registered as Member in respect of those Shares.

at the rate fixed by the terms of allotment of the Share or in the notice of the call; or

(b)

if no rate is fixed, at the Default Rate.

The directors may waive payment of the interest wholly or in part.

H-10

Table of Contents

Deemed calls

6.7	Any amount payable in respect of a Share, whether on allotment or on a fixed date or otherwise, shall be deemed to be payable as a call. If the amount is not paid when due the provisions of these Articles shall apply as if the amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call.

15.10

Notwithstanding the other provisions of these Articles, in any case where, as a result of death, the Company has no directors and no shareholders, the personal representatives of the last shareholder to have died have the power, by notice in writing to the Company, to appoint a person to be a director.

where two or more shareholders die in circumstances rendering it uncertain who was the last to die, a younger shareholder is deemed to have survived an older shareholder;

25.6	The directors may deduct from a dividend or any other amount payable to a person in respect of a Share any amount due by that person to the Company on a call or otherwise in relation to a Share.

Power to pay other than in cash

25.7

If the directors so determine, any resolution declaring a dividend may direct that it shall be satisfied wholly or partly by the distribution of assets. If a difficulty arises in relation to the distribution, the directors may settle that difficulty in any way they consider appropriate. For example, they may do any one or more of the following:

(a)

issue fractional Shares;

(b)

fix the value of assets for distribution and make cash payments to some Members on the footing of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of Members; and

(c)

vest some assets in trustees.

How payments may be made

(b)

by cheque or warrant sent by post to the registered address of the Member holding that Share or other person entitled to that Share.

25.9

For the purpose of paragraph (a) of the preceding Article, the nomination may be in writing or in an Electronic Record and the bank account nominated may be the bank account of another person. For the purpose of paragraph (b) of the preceding Article, subject to any applicable law or regulation, the cheque or warrant shall be made to the order of the Member holding

H-34

that Share or other person entitled to the Share or to his nominee, whether nominated in writing or in an Electronic Record, and payment of the cheque or warrant shall be a good discharge to the Company.

25.10

If two or more persons are registered as the holders of the Share or are jointly entitled to it by reason of the death or bankruptcy of the registered holder (Joint Holders), a dividend (or other amount) payable on or in respect of that Share may be paid as follows:

(a)

to the registered address of the Joint Holder of the Share who is named first on the Register of Members or to the registered address of the deceased or bankrupt holder, as the case may be; or

(b)

to the address or bank account of another person nominated by the Joint Holders, whether that nomination is in writing or in an Electronic Record.

Dividends or other moneys not to bear interest in absence of special rights

25.12

Unless provided for by the rights attached to a Share, no dividend or other monies payable by the Company in respect of a Share shall bear interest.

Dividends unable to be paid or unclaimed

25.13

If a dividend cannot be paid to a Member or remains unclaimed within six weeks after it was declared or both, the directors may pay it into a separate account in the Company’s name. If a dividend is paid into a separate account, the Company shall not be constituted trustee in respect of that account and the dividend shall remain a debt due to the Member.

25.14

A dividend that remains unclaimed for a period of six years after it became due for payment shall be forfeited to, and shall cease to remain owing by, the Company.

26Capitalisation of profits

Capitalisation of profits or of any share premium account or capital redemption reserve

(a)

any part of the Company’s profits not required for paying any preferential dividend (whether or not those profits are available for distribution); or

(b)

any sum standing to the credit of the Company’s share premium account or capital redemption reserve, if any.

The amount resolved to be capitalised must be appropriated to the Members who would have been entitled to it had it been distributed by way of dividend and in the same proportions. The benefit to each Member so entitled must be given in either or both of the following ways:

(a)

by paying up the amounts unpaid on that Member’s Shares;

(b)

by issuing Fully Paid Shares, debentures or other securities of the Company to that Member or as that Member directs. The directors may resolve that any Shares issued to the Member in respect of partly paid Shares (Original Shares) rank for dividend only to the extent that the Original Shares rank for dividend while those Original Shares remain partly paid.

Applying an amount for the benefit of members

26.2	The amount capitalised must be applied to the benefit of Members in the proportions to which the Members would have been entitled to dividends if the amount capitalised had been distributed as a dividend.

29Indemnity

35.1

Save and except for the conversion rights referred to in this Article 35 and as otherwise set out in these Articles, subject to Article 2.10, the rights attaching to all Shares shall rank pari passu in all respects, and the Class A Shares and Class B Shares shall vote together as a single class on all matters.

35.2	Class B Shares shall convert into Class A Shares in such a ratio so as to give effect to the Class B Share Entitlement (the Conversion Ratio): (a) at any time and from time to time at the option of the holders thereof; and (b) automatically on the day of the closing of a Business Combination.

35.3

In order to give effect to the Conversion Ratio, in the case that additional Class A Shares or any other Equity-linked Securities, are issued, or deemed issued, by the Company in excess of the amounts offered in the IPO and related to the closing of a Business Combination, all Class B Shares in issue shall automatically convert into Class A Shares at the time of the closing of a Business Combination at the Conversion Ratio (unless the holders of a majority of the Class B Shares in issue agree to waive such anti-dilution adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A Shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B Shares will equal, on an as-converted basis, in the aggregate, 20 per cent of the sum of all Class A Shares and Class B Shares in issue upon completion of the IPO plus all Class A Shares and Equity-linked Securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination, excluding any Shares or Equity-linked Securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor or its Affiliates upon conversion of working capital loans made to the Company.

35.4

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Conversion Ratio may be waived as to any particular issuance or deemed issuance of additional Class A Shares or Equity-linked Securities by the written consent or agreement of holders of a majority of the Class B Shares then in issue consenting or agreeing separately as a separate class in the manner provided in Article 2.10 hereof.

35.6

Each Class B Share shall convert into its pro rata number of Class A Shares pursuant to this Article. The pro rata share for each holder of Class B Shares will be determined as follows: each Class B Share shall convert into such number of Class A Shares as is equal to the product of 1 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of Class A Shares into which all of the Class B Shares in issue shall be converted pursuant to this Article and the denominator of which shall be the total number of Class B Shares in issue at the time of conversion.

35.7

References in this Article to “converted”, “conversion” or “exchange” shall mean the compulsory redemption without notice of Class B Shares of any Member and, on behalf of such Members, automatic application of such redemption proceeds in paying for such new Class A Shares into which the Class B Shares have been converted or exchanged at a price per Class B Share necessary to give effect to a conversion or exchange calculated on the basis that the Class A Shares to be issued as part of the conversion or exchange will be issued at par. The Class A Shares to be issued on an exchange or conversion shall be registered in the name of such Member or in such name as the Member may direct.

35.8	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, in no event may any Class B Share convert into Class A Shares at a ratio that is less than the Conversion Ratio.

36Business Combination

36.1	Articles 36.1 to 36.11 shall terminate upon consummation of any Business Combination.

36.2

The Company has until 18 months from the closing of the IPO to consummate a Business Combination, provided however that if the board of directors anticipates that the Company may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within 18 months of the closing of the IPO, the Company may, by resolution of directors, extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination by an additional three months (for a total of up to 21 months to complete a Business Combination), subject to the Sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account in accordance with terms as set out in the trust agreement governing the Trust Account and referred to in the Registration Statement. In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the IPO, or within 21 months from the closing of the IPO, subject in the latter case to a valid three month extension having been made (such date falling 18 months or 21 months (as applicable) from the closing of the IPO being referred to as the Termination Date), such failure shall trigger an automatic redemption of the Public Shares (an Automatic Redemption Event) and the directors of the Company shall take all such action necessary to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten (10) Business Days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares to the holders of Public Shares, on a pro rata basis, in cash at a per-share amount equal to the applicable Per-Share Redemption Price; and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such Automatic Redemption Event, subject to the approval of our remaining Members and our directors, liquidate and dissolve the Company, subject to the Company’s obligations under the Act to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other Applicable Law. In the event of an Automatic Redemption Event, only the holders of Public Shares shall be entitled to receive pro rata redeeming distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Public Shares.

36.3

Unless a shareholder vote is required by law or the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange, or, at the sole discretion of the directors, the directors determine to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company may enter into a Business Combination without submitting such Business Combination to its Members for approval.

36.4

Although not required, in the event that a shareholder vote is held, and a majority of the votes of the Shares entitled to vote thereon which were present at the meeting to approve the Business Combination are voted for the approval of such Business Combination, the Company shall be authorised to consummate the Business Combination.

36.5

(a)

In the event that a Business Combination is consummated by the Company other than in connection with a shareholder vote under Article 36.4, the Company will, subject to as provided below, offer to redeem the Public Shares for cash in

H-43

Table of Contents

accordance with Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act and subject to any limitations (including but not limited to cash requirements) set forth in the definitive transaction agreements related to the initial Business Combination (the Tender Redemption Offer), provided however that the Company shall not redeem those Shares held by the Initial Shareholders or their affiliates or the directors or officers of the Company pursuant to such Tender Redemption Offer, whether or not such holders accept such Tender Redemption Offer. The Company will file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to consummating the Business Combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about the Business Combination and the redemption rights as would be required in a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act. In accordance with the Exchange Act, the Tender Redemption Offer will remain open for a minimum of 20 Business Days and the Company will not be permitted to consummate its Business Combination until the expiry of such period. If in the event a Member holding Public Shares accepts the Tender Redemption Offer and the Company has not otherwise withdrawn the tender offer, the Company shall, promptly after the consummation of the Business Combination, pay such redeeming Member, on a pro rata basis, cash equal to the applicable Per-Share Redemption Price.

(b)

In the event that a Business Combination is consummated by the Company in connection with a shareholder vote held pursuant to Article 36.4 in accordance with a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act (the Redemption Offer), the Company will, subject as provided below, offer to redeem the Public Shares, other than those Shares held by the Initial Shareholders or their affiliates or the directors or officers of the Company, regardless of whether such shares are voted for or against the Business Combination, for cash, on a pro rata basis, at a per-share amount equal to the applicable Per-Share Redemption Price, provided however that: (i) the Company shall not redeem those Shares held by the Initial Shareholders or their affiliates or the directors or officers of the Company pursuant to such Redemption Offer, whether or not such holders accept such Redemption Offer; and (ii) any other redeeming Member who either individually or together with any affiliate of his or any other person with whom he is acting in concert or as a “group” (as such term is defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act) shall not be permitted to redeem, without the consent of the directors, more than fifteen percent (15%) of the total Public Shares sold in the IPO.

(c)

In no event will the Company consummate the Tender Redemption Offer or the Redemption Offer under Article 36.5(a) or 36.5(b) or an Amendment Redemption Event under Article 36.11 if such redemptions would cause the Company to have net tangible assets of less than US$5,000,001 or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to the Business Combination.

36.6

A holder of Public Shares shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Account only in the event of an Automatic Redemption Event, an Amendment Redemption Event or in the event he accepts a Tender Redemption Offer or a Redemption Offer where the Business Combination is consummated. In no other circumstances shall a holder of Public Shares have any right or interest of any kind in or to the Trust Account.

36.7	Prior to a Business Combination, the Company will not issue any securities (other than Public Shares) that would entitle the holder thereof to (i) receive funds from the Trust Account; or (ii) vote on any Business Combination.

36.8

36.9	The Company will not effectuate a Business Combination with another “blank cheque” company or a similar company with nominal operations.

36.10

Immediately after the Company’s IPO, that amount of the proceeds received by the Company in or in connection with the IPO (including proceeds of any exercise of the Underwriter’s Over-Allotment Option and any proceeds from the simultaneous private placement of like units comprising like securities to those included in the IPO by the Company) as is described in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC (the Registration Statement) at the time it goes effective as shall be deposited in the Trust Account shall be so deposited and thereafter held in the Trust Account until released in the event of a Business Combination or otherwise in accordance with this Article 36. Neither the Company nor any officer, director or employee of the Company will disburse any of the proceeds held in the Trust Account until the earlier of (i) a Business Combination, or (ii) an Automatic Redemption Event or in payment of the acquisition price for any shares which the Company elects to purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire in accordance with this Article 36, in each case in

To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the provisions of this Article apply equally to activities conducted in the future and that have been conducted in the past.

39Exclusive Jurisdiction and Forum

39.1

Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the courts of the Cayman Islands shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any claim or dispute arising out of or in connection with the Memorandum, the Articles or otherwise related in any way to each Member’s shareholding in the Company, including but not limited to:

Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for resolution of any claim arising under the U.S Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Board of Directors of

The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation

12 East 49th Street, 11th Floor

New York, NY 10017

To the Board of Directors:

Marshall & Stevens Transaction Advisory Services LLC (referred to herein as “Marshall & Stevens” or “we,” “us,” or “our”) has been engaged by The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation (“GFGD” or the “SPAC”) for the benefit of and to advise the board of directors (the “Board”) in connection with the consideration by the Board of a possible acquisition (the “Transaction”) of Zero Nox, Inc. (“Zero Nox” or the “Acquired Business”) in accordance with the terms of the draft Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among GFGD and certain other parties and dated March 6, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”). We have been engaged to perform (1) an analysis of the reasonable range of values for the Acquired Business immediately prior to the Transaction and, for purposes of NASDAQ Listing Rule 5101-2(b), whether such values represent at least 80% of the value of the cash assets held in its trust account, excluding taxes payable on the interest earned on such account and assuming the company has no liabilities (including contingent liabilities that could result in claims against such assets) at the time of such advice (the “Valuation Ratio”) and (2) an analysis as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to GFGD and, through their ownership in GFGD, GFGD’s Class A stockholders of the purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) to be paid for the Acquired Business all as set forth in our Engagement Letter dated February 14, 2023 and the accompanying (and by this reference incorporated herein) General Contractual Conditions therein (collectively, the “Agreement”). This letter shall serve as our opinion (the “Opinion”) as to (1) the Valuation Ratio and (2) the fairness, from a financial point of view, to GFGD and, through their ownership in GFGD, GFGD’s Class A stockholders of the Purchase Price to be paid for the Acquired Business by GFGD as referenced in and governed by that Agreement.

We are advised, and have relied upon such advice with your approval, that the Transaction will be consummated as set forth in the Merger Agreement. We understand that the Transaction is expected to close (the “Closing”) in the second half of 2023, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement (the “Transaction Date”). We have assumed that the Transaction consists of a business combination between the SPAC and Zero Nox pursuant to which the SPAC, in effect, will acquire Zero Nox for consideration of up to Thirty Million (30,000,000) newly issued shares (the “Transaction Shares”) of common stock of the SPAC to be issued as Twenty Two Million Five Hundred Thousand (22,500,000) shares at the Closing valued at $10.00 per share (the "Initial Shares") and up to Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand (7,500,000) shares to be issued if certain criteria are met (the “Earnout Shares") as specified in the Merger Agreement (the “Earnout"), in each case pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. We have assumed that the SPAC acquires 100% of the equity of Zero Nox and we assume no dilution for any outstanding stock options, restricted stock units or convertible notes.

Based on the fact that the SPAC is only recently formed, has no operating history, has no assets other than cash and its rights under the letter of intent dated December 29, 2022 (the “LOI”), and that its securities are thinly traded, we have assumed, with your approval, that the fair value of each of the Initial Shares is equivalent to the $10.00, which is the approximate redemption price that public shareholders would be redeemed. The fair value of each of the Earnout Shares is the respective trading price at each achievement trigger (e.g. $12.50, $15.00 and $20.00). We have not performed any separate analysis regarding the fair value of the Transaction Shares. Accordingly, this opinion is based on the assumption that the fair market value of the Purchase Price to be paid for the Acquired Business is (x) Two Hundred and Twenty Five Million Dollars ($225,000,000) plus (y) the fair value of the Earnout. We note that, immediately prior to the Closing, the SPAC will de-register from the Register of Companies in the Cayman Islands by way of continuation out of the Cayman islands and into the State of Delaware so as to migrate to and domesticate as a Delaware corporation prior to the Closing (the “surviving company”) and with your permission have assumed that the value of the shares of the surviving company immediately prior to the Transaction is the same as the value of the SPAC shares immediately before such continuation, migration and domestication.

We understand that, in connection with the Transaction, certain equity of the surviving company may be reserved for issuance pursuant to stock bonus or incentive arrangements or Zero Nox options under such plans converted into options to acquire securities of the surviving company. Our Opinion will not address the fairness of such agreements or stock bonus or incentive arrangements. We further understand that, in connection with the Transaction, the SPAC and/or the surviving company may make commitments with respect to the future financing or funding of the Acquired Business. Our Opinion will assign no value to such future financing or funding commitments or obligations. In addition, we understand that the Transaction contemplates certain changes in the rights, privileges, and preferences of the holders of the SPAC’s shares and certain changes in the composition of the SPAC’s management and board of directors. We have done no analysis of and express no opinion as to the fairness of such changes in rights, privileges, and preferences and/or in the changes to the composition of the SPAC’s management and board of directors.

We have been asked to advise the Board to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to GFGD and, through their ownership in GFGD, GFGD’s Class A stockholders of the Purchase Price to be paid for the Acquired Business in the form of issuance of common stock of the surviving company to the equity holders of Zero Nox. We have not been asked to render any opinion to any other person or entity besides the Board with respect to the fairness of the Purchase Price, and we specifically express no such opinion. We have not been engaged to serve as the financial advisor to the Board; we were not involved in the negotiation or structuring of the Transaction or the negotiation or structuring of the LOI or the Merger Agreement; we have not been involved in

I-2

the raising of any funding for or with respect to, or associated with the SPAC and/or the Transaction or provided any advices with respect to such funding; and we have not been asked to consider any non-financial elements of the Transaction or any other alternatives that might be available to the Board or the SPAC.

With your consent, in establishing fair value, we have solely considered the equity value of Zero Nox as of a valuation date of March 5, 2023 and prior to the Transaction, and have not taken into consideration any possible consequences of the Transaction (either positive or negative). We have, with your consent, not considered the dilution effects of the issuance of common stock on equity holders of the SPAC. Our services in rendering this opinion have been in our capacity as an independent valuation consultant and not as a fiduciary to the Board, the SPAC, the shareholders of the SPAC, the shareholders of Zero Nox, or any other person or entity.

In connection with this opinion, we have made such reviews, analysis, and inquiry as we, in the exercise of our professional judgment, have deemed necessary and appropriate under the circumstances. We have considered, among other things, the following information:

●

Conducted management interviews with Zero Nox’s management. Topics addressed included, but were not limited to, Transaction overview, business operations, product and service lines, financial results, projections, economic conditions and industry trends, market competitors, customer composition and various other topics related to business operations.

●

Zero Nox’s historical financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020, December 31, 2021, and December 31, 2022;

●

Projections for Zero Nox for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024;

●

The LOI;

●

The Merger Agreement;

●

A Zero Nox Investor presentation titled “Investor Deck”, dated January 2023;

●

Third-party industry and economic research, including, but not limited to, IBISWorld, Capital IQ, Guide to Cost of Capital published by Duff & Phelps LLC and analyst reports for the guideline public companies; and

●

Other information, studies, and analyses as we deemed appropriate.

With your consent, we have i) relied upon the accuracy and completeness of the financial and supplemental information (a) provided by or on behalf of the Board, the SPAC and/or Zero Nox or (b) which we have otherwise obtained from public sources or from private sources and which we believe, in the exercise of our professional judgment to be reasonably dependable, ii) not assumed responsibility for independent verification of such information, and iii) not conducted any independent valuation or appraisal of any specific assets of the SPAC or Zero Nox or any appraisal or estimate of any specific liabilities of the SPAC or Zero Nox. We have assumed, with your consent, that the projections supplied have been reasonably prepared on the basis of and reflect the best currently available estimates and judgments of the management of Zero Nox as to the future financial performance of that company and that management of the surviving company will be able to execute on the business plan underlying such projections and/or financial forecasts. With your consent, we assume no responsibility for, and express no view as to, such projections or the assumptions on which they are based. Our Opinion assumes that there are no contingent or off-balance sheet assets or liabilities for the SPAC or Zero Nox.

Our opinion is based upon economic, market and other conditions as they exist and can reasonably be evaluated on the date hereof and does not address the fairness of the Purchase Price as of any other date. In rendering our Opinion, we have assumed that the factual circumstances, agreements, and terms, as they existed at the date of the Opinion, will remain substantially unchanged through the time the Transaction is completed. It is understood that financial markets are subject to volatility, and our opinion does not purport to address potential developments in applicable financial markets.

Our Opinion expressed herein has been prepared for the Board in connection with its consideration of the Transaction and may not be relied upon by any other person or entity or for any other purpose. Our Opinion does not constitute a recommendation to the Board or the shareholders of SPAC, the shareholders of Zero Nox or any other person or entity as to any action the Board, the shareholders of SPAC, the shareholders of Zero Nox or any other person or entity should take in connection with the Transaction or any aspect thereof. Our Opinion does not address the merits of the Transaction or the underlying decision by the Board to engage in the Transaction or the relative merits of any alternatives that may be available to the SPAC. This Opinion addresses only the Purchase Price and does not address any other aspect of the Transaction. By way of example, our Opinion does not represent any advice as to the fairness of any matters of management compensation or of any fees paid or expenses incurred, any future funding or fund raising commitments, or any changes in the rights, privileges and preferences of the holders of the SPAC’s shares or in the composition of the SPAC’s management and board of directors. Furthermore, our Opinion is not to be construed or deemed to be a solvency opinion or provide any advice as to legal, accounting or tax matters. This Opinion may not be reproduced, disseminated, quoted, or referred to at any time without our prior written consent.

Therefore, subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof, based upon an analysis of the reasonable range of value for the Acquired Business immediately prior to the Transaction and, for purposes of NASDAQ Listing Rule 5101-2(b), such values represent at least 80% of the value of the cash assets held in its trust account, excluding taxes payable on the interest earned on such account and assuming the company has no liabilities (including contingent liabilities that could result in claims against such assets) at the date hereof.¹ It is further our opinion that the Purchase Price to be paid for the Acquired Business in the Transaction in the form of the issuance of the common stock of the surviving company to the equity holders of Zero Nox as provided in the Merger Agreement is fair to from a financial point of view to GFGD and, through their ownership in GFGD, GFGD’s Class A stockholders.

Very truly yours,

¹ It is our understanding that the cash in trust as of the date hereof is approximately Two Hundred and Fifty Three Million Dollars ($253,000,000). Therefore, the 80% threshold is approximately Two Hundred and Two Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($253,000,000 x 80% = $202,400,000). Our estimates of fair market value of equity ranged from approximately Two Hundred and Thirty Five Million Dollars ($235,000,000) to approximately Two Hundred and Eighty Five Million Dollars ($285,000,000), with a midpoint of approximately Two Hundred and Sixty Million Dollars ($260,000,000).

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 20. Indemnification of directors and officers

Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against willful default, willful neglect, civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. The Cayman Constitutional Documents provided for indemnification of G4G’s officers and directors, including for any liability incurred in their capacities as such, except through their own actual fraud, willful default or willful neglect.

G4G has entered into agreements with G4G’s officers and directors to provide contractual indemnification in addition to the indemnification provided for in the Cayman Constitutional Documents. G4G has purchased a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that, subject to its terms and conditions, insures G4G’s officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures G4G against G4G’s obligations to indemnify G4G’s officers and directors.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, G4G has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 22. Undertakings

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

●

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

●

To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

●

To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement;

●

To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

●

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment will be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time will be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

●

To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering; and

●

To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act need not be furnished; provided that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (1)(d) and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements.

That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows: that prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other items of the applicable form.

Table of Contents

The registrant undertakes that every prospectus: (a) that is filed pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, or (b) that purports to meet the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment will be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time will be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes (i) to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this Form, within one Business Day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means; and (ii) to arrange or provide for a facility in the U.S. for the purpose of responding to such requests. The undertaking in subparagraph (i) above includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.
