Carbon Revolution Provides Business Update

–   Issues Outlook For Fiscal Second Quarter Revenue  –

–   Conference Call and Investor Presentation Available on IR Site  –

Geelong, Australia – December 12, 2023 - Carbon Revolution plc (Nasdaq: CREV)” (the “Company”) a Tier 1 OEM supplier and a leading global manufacturer of lightweight advanced technology carbon fiber wheels, today provided a business update.

“Carbon Revolution delivered record revenue in the fiscal first quarter of 2024, up 56% year-over-year to US$11.3 million¹, as program wins have moved into production, and we expect that strength to continue. Our commercial momentum is extremely strong, with five program wins in 2023 more than doubling our backlog,” said Jake Dingle, CEO of Carbon Revolution.

“In less than a year, we have increased our awarded programs to eighteen² with six global OEMs. We continue to make strong progress on our expansion, including commissioning of the first phase of the Mega-line, along with record production of wheels. Importantly, we have also raised significant capital to fund our growth and execute on our vision to be the global leader in lightweight wheels,” Mr. Dingle continued.

“We are incredibly excited about the opportunity ahead and remain focused on achieving profitable growth in the future, which we believe will be achieved through the automation of our production and driving greater fixed cost leverage as volumes ramp. Looking forward, we expect robust growth to continue in the fiscal second quarter. At the midpoint of our outlook, we expect revenue to increase more than 25% sequentially and nearly triple year-over-year,” concluded Mr. Dingle.

Fiscal Second Quarter 2024 Outlook

Based on current business conditions, business trends and other factors, the Company is providing an outlook for the fiscal second quarter ending December 31, 2023. The Company expects revenue to be in the range of US$14.0 million to US$14.5 million.

Backlog

The Company's backlog has more than doubled since October 2022 to $730 million³. The increase in backlog primarily reflects new program awards, with almost 50% of the backlog for EVs.

 If any of these risks materialize or Carbon Revolution’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that Carbon Revolution does not presently know or that Carbon Revolution currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Carbon Revolution’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this communication. Carbon Revolution anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause Carbon Revolution’s assessments to change. However, while Carbon Revolution may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Carbon Revolution specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, unless required by applicable law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Carbon Revolution’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this communication. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.  Certain Financial Measures and Calculations  Certain financial and statistical Information has been subject to rounding off adjustments. Accordingly, the sum of certain data may not conform to the expressed total. The Company uses a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure, direct costs, in this presentation. This item is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) or International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), nor has this measure been audited or reviewed by an external auditor, consultant or expert. This measure is derived from management information systems. This item is an addition to, and not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP or IFRS, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or IFRS. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure, direct costs, to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty or without unreasonable effort non-recurring items, such as those described in this presentation as non-GAAP adjustments, that may arise in the future. The Company believes that this forward-looking measure of financial results provides useful supplemental information to investors about the Company. The principal limitation of this financial measure is that it excludes items that are significant in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial results, including significant expenses, income and tax liabilities that are required by GAAP and/or IFRS to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In addition, it is subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgements by the Company about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these financial measures. While the Company and the SPAC believe the Information set forth in this presentation is reasonable, it is inherently subject to modification in connection with their ongoing review or audit procedures and such modifications may be material. Accordingly, such Information and data may not be included, may be adjusted or may be presented differently in any proxy statement, prospectus or registration statement or other report or document to be filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Company.   Currency  All amounts in the presentation are stated in US Dollars unless otherwise indicated. The Financial Projections have been prepared in Australian Dollars (being the Company’s functional currency) and converted to US Dollars at a rate of 0.70:1 (USD:AUD).  Financial Information  The historical financial Information regarding the Company contained in this presentation has been taken from or prepared based on historical financial statements of the Company. An audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) has been completed and such financial statements are included in the Company’s Shell Company Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC. The Company’s results and financial condition as reflected in the financial statements included in the registration statement/proxy statement may be adjusted or presented differently from the historical financial Information included herein, and the differences could be material.  Industry and Market Data  Certain Information contained in this presentation relates to or is based on studies, publications, surveys, the Company’s own internal estimates, and research and other statistical data made by independent parties and by the Company. Neither the Company nor its representatives have independently verified any such Information provided by third parties or industry or general publications. This data included in this presentation involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and there can be no guarantee as to the accuracy or reliability of such assumptions. In addition, forecasts, assumptions and estimates of the future performance of the markets in which the Company operates are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk. Finally, internal research has not been verified by any independent source, and the Company cannot guarantee and make no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to its accuracy and completeness.   Trademarks  This presentation contains trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights of the Company, and other companies, which are the property of their respective owners.

 Basis of preparation  Pages 4, 12, 16, 17 and 18 of this presentation contains the Company’s estimates of Revenue and direct costs for the calendar years 2023 and 2024 and Backlog (the “Financial Projections”). The Company’s independent auditors have not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the Financial Projections for the purpose of their inclusion in this presentation, and accordingly, they did not express an opinion or provide any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this presentation. These Financial Projections should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results.   The Financial Projections have been prepared by the Company as part of its internal long-range planning process and are included in this document to provide current and potential investors with information to assist them in understanding the Company’s forecast financial performance, for their use in evaluating the transaction described in this presentation.   The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Financial Projections. The Directors of the Company consider that the Financial Projections provide a reasonable basis for current and potential investors to assess the Company’s forecast financial performance, in the context of the Assumptions, Risks and Sensitivities outlined below. The Financial Projections do not factor in any general contingency to allow for changes in OEM production schedules (e.g. to reflect supply chain disruption, as has been observed over the last 2-3 years), however a volume sensitivity has been provided on page 25. Inclusion of the Financial Projections should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results contained in the Financial Projections will be achieved.  The Financial Projections are presented in an abbreviated form and do not include all of the statements, disclosures or comparative information required by US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, International Financial Reporting Standards or Australian Accounting Standards.  Assumptions  The Financial Projections have been prepared on a detailed, bottom-up basis. The assumptions applied in relation to each key component of the Financial Projections are as follows:  Program overview: The revenue projections have been prepared on a program-by-program basis. The Company has a number of programs at various stages of production and development however the Company has only included wheels sales from Awarded Programs in the CY23E and CY24E projections. The Company currently has 13 active awarded programs with 5 global OEMs (6 of which are currently in production and 7 of which are under development). Overall, the Financial Projections assume an increase in the number of programs in production, to 9 programs by Dec-24.  Volumes: The Company has undertaken a detailed assessment of expected wheel volumes on a program-by-program basis, taking into account contractual arrangements and correspondence with respective OEMs for Awarded projects together with management's expectations. Whilst the Company’s contracts with OEMs do not provide contractual or minimum volume guarantees, the Company is in regular dialogue with OEMs in relation to OEMs’ production forecasts, which provides a degree of visibility over future volumes (particularly in the short-term). This correspondence with OEMs forms the primary basis of the volume projections for awarded programs, supplemented (where relevant) by other sources of information (e.g. market data, production capacity requests from OEMs, take rate indications, management expectations of volumes based on experience and market knowledge). Overall wheel volumes are projected to increase from 13,883 in CY22 to 42,578 in CY24 driven by the ramp-up in production on awarded and pipeline programs, with 9 programs assumed to be in production by Dec-24.  Backlog: Backlog (remaining lifetime gross program projected revenue) is based on awarded programs (both in production and development) and excludes programs that are contracted for engineering. Backlog utilizes contracted pricing multiplied by wheel volumes determined as set out above.  The Financial Projections also assume that production schedules received from OEMs are accurate, assuming no unforeseen delays (e.g. from COVID-19, semi-conductor shortages or other supply chain challenges).  Projection Methodologies  22 

 Pricing: Pricing is projected on a program-by-program basis, taking into account contracted amounts for awarded programs and expected price increases. The Company is currently in discussions with customers in relation to potential price increases in light of input cost inflation and has included in its forecast expected price increases where applicable. Currently contracted prices are used for backlog calculations.  Raw materials, freight and other direct manufacturing costs: The Company has projected raw material costs for each wheel program. In doing so, it has considered expected product designs and material composition, production process usage, scrap and waste, raw material pricing and inflation, expected volume-based negotiation benefits, productivity-based improvements and expected inbound and outbound freight and logistics costs. Overall, the Financial Projections assume a reduction in direct material and freight costs per wheel of 14% between CY22 and CY24. The Company has not incorporated any further cost inflation (e.g. as a result of the current Ukraine/Russia war) in its projected raw material or supply chain costs as it is assumed this can be passed through to customers.  Direct labour: Direct labour is projected based on the Company’s detailed process-by-process operational model. The Financial Projections assume significant improvements in direct labour productivity, with direct labour per wheel decreasing by approximately 44% between CY22 and CY24. This is based on a range of factors including targeted improvement to product and process quality, expected scale-based volume efficiencies, reduced wastage, manufacturing technology and operational improvements and the introduction and commissioning of significant plant automation (including the Mega-line, which is being progressively commissioned in H1-CY23 and onwards).  FX: The Financial Projections have been prepared in Australian Dollars (being the Company’s functional currency) and converted to US Dollars at a rate of 0.70:1 (USD:AUD). The Company does not undertake any hedging activities.  Key Risks (Financial Projections)  The following items represent the key risks contained within the Financial Projections. This list is not considered exhaustive and should be considered in the context of the Risks outlined in the Risk Factors section of this report.   Volumes: Awarded wheel programs may experience delays in development or production, or wheel production volume increases may not be as expected, or programs may be cancelled.  Pricing: The price received by the Company for its wheels may be different from expectations. Similarly, the Company may not recover engineering and development or tooling costs from its customers to the extent expected.   Materials: Direct Materials costs may be higher than assumed in the Financial Projections, e.g. if the projected operational improvements or procurement savings do not materialise in the timeframe anticipated, or if underlying input cost inflation is greater than projected.  Labour: Direct Labour costs may be higher than assumed in the Financial Projections, e.g. if the projected operational improvements (including Mega-line) do not materialise in the timeframe anticipated.  FX: Foreign exchange rates could adversely impact the Company’s financial performance (notably a weaker Australian Dollar than assumed in the Financial Projections).  Projection Methodologies (cont.)  23 

 Sensitivities  The Financial Projections are based on a number of estimates and assumptions, as described above. These estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and are subject to business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, and on assumptions with respect to future business decisions which are subject to change. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Financial Projections are indicative of the future performance of the Company or that actual results will not differ materially from those presented in the Financial Projections. The Financial Projections are also subject to a number of risks including those outlined above. Investors should be aware that future events cannot be predicted with certainty and as a result, deviations from the amounts projected are to be expected. To assist investors in assessing the impact of these assumptions on the Financial Projections, the sensitivity of the projected revenue (US$81.8 million) in CY24 is set out below. The changes in key variables set out in the sensitivity analysis are not intended to be indicative of the complete range of variations that may be experienced.  Care should be taken in interpreting these sensitivities. In order to illustrate the likely impact on the Financial Projections, the estimated impact of changes in each of the assumptions has been calculated in isolation from changes in other assumptions. In practice, changes in assumptions may offset each other or be additive, and it is likely that the Company would respond to any changes in one item to seek to minimise the net effect on the Company’s earnings and cash flow.   The sensitivity analysis set out below is intended to provide a guide only and variations in actual performance could exceed the ranges shown, and these variances may be substantial. For example, the Financial Projections are premised on a significant increase in sales volume, particularly driven by the commencement of new programs and it is possible that the rate of increase in sales volumes from new programs does not increase at the rate projected in the financial year.  1. Change in FX rate – translation (USD:AUD)  The Financial Projections are reported in AUD and have been translated to USD at a USD:AUD rate of 0.70:1. A $0.01 increase in the USD:AUD rate (i.e. a rate of 0.71:1) results in an increase of CY24 revenue of US$1.2 million. If the actual USD:AUD rate were to be 0.65:1 (being the rate as at 31 May 2023), this would decrease CY24 revenue by US$5.6 million.  2. Change in FX rate - transaction (USD:AUD, EUR:AUD)  The Financial Projections are based on a USD:AUD rate of 0.70:1 and EUR:AUD rate of 0.64:1. A $0.01 increase in the USD:AUD rate (i.e. a rate of 0.71:1) and EUR:AUD rate (i.e. a rate of 0.65:1) results in a decrease of CY24 revenue of US$0.3 million and US$0.05 million, respectively. If the actual USD:AUD rate were to be 0.65:1 and the actual EUR:AUD rate were to be 0.61:1 (both being the rates as at 31 May 2023), this would increase CY24 revenue by US$1.6 million (netting off against the translation sensitivity referred to above).  3. Sales volumes  If CY24 wheel volumes were 10% greater than / lower than projected, this would impact revenue by +/- US$7.8 million.  4. Timing delays / volume slippage   As discussed above, the Financial Projections reflect management’s estimate of volumes, taking into account OEM’s production forecasts and assuming no delays in commencing production. In the event of a 1-month timing delay on all new programs which have not yet entered production, this would reduce CY24 revenue by US$2.5 million.  5. Average price per wheel  If sales prices were 2% greater than / lower than projected, this would increase / reduce CY24 revenue by US$1.6 million.  Projection Methodologies (cont.)  24 

 Risk Factors  25 

 Capitalized terms used but not defined below have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Company’s Shell Company Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on November 9, 2023.  Risks Related to Our Financial Condition and Liquidity  The Company may be unable to obtain sufficient financing to pay its expenses.  The Company is not yet profitable or cash flow positive and it may take longer for the Company to reach profitability or become cash flow breakeven than anticipated (or it may never occur), and the Company may not be able to obtain financing to fund its operations on acceptable terms, or at all.  The Company could fail to meet the financial covenants under the New Debt Program entered into on May 23, 2023.  The Company could fail to make payments when due or otherwise comply with other requirements under the New Debt Program, resulting in an event of default thereunder and acceleration thereof.  There are no assurances as to when the closing conditions for the additional tranches of funding under the OIC Financing, the Reserve Release Closings or Subsequent Closings, will be satisfied.  The terms of the OIC Financing impose obligations on us or restrict our ability to engage in some business activities, which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.  In the event of certain triggers under the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, holders of Preferred Shares will gain certain governance and control rights.  Our ability to raise capital is partially subject to receipt of the consent of the holders of the OIC Warrant; if we do not receive such consent from such holders and/or are unable to raise the requisite amount of capital, our financial condition business, operations and growth plans will be adversely affected.  The Company will need to raise additional funds by equity, debt, or convertible debt financings, to support its growth, and those funds may be unavailable on acceptable terms, or at all. As a result, the Company may be unable to meet its future capital needs, which may limit its ability to grow and jeopardize its ability to continue its business.  Risks Related to Our Business and Operations  The Company’s customer contracts contain no take or pay provisions or other minimum purchase requirements and its customers may not order wheels as expected.  Wheel programs may not be awarded or may not be awarded in the expected timeframe or for the expected volumes. The Company’s view of expected volumes may not be achieved or may not be achieved within expected timeframes.  Wheel programs may commence later than expected due to the design development and engineering phase taking longer than expected.  The margin received by the Company for its wheels may be lower than expected. Similarly, the Company may not recover engineering and development or tooling costs from its customers to the extent expected.  The Company may not be able to achieve the manufacturing quality required or expected by its customers.  The Company may not be able to execute its plans to increase its capacity to the extent expected within the timeframes as expected and/or at the expected cost.  Due to industry standard contractual provisions which are favorable to the Company’s customers, the Company may be exposed to volatility in demand and changes to customer forecasts on short notice, resulting in disruption to the Company’s operations and supply chain and increased costs and lower margins. The Company may not be able to adjust its raw material supply orders on short notice to meet such demand, which may adversely affect the Company’s profitability, cash flow and operations.  The Company is exposed to claims against it by its customers for late delivery or delivery of products which do not meet desired specification. However, the Company does not have the same ability to make claims against all of its raw materials suppliers for late delivery or delivery of materials which do not meet our specification.  The Company is exposed to price increases from suppliers and may not be able to pass those increases on to customers in full or at all.  Risk Factors  26 

 Because the Company’s wheel designs go through a validation process with customers, the Company may lack flexibility in sourcing validated materials from multiple suppliers, and therefore may be more exposed to price increases and supply shortages, than would otherwise be the case if it had flexibility to source from multiple suppliers (and swapping a validated material for an altered or different material may require some form of revalidation (partial or full)).  The Company’s relationships with suppliers and technical partners may deteriorate or there may be other issues with goods, services or equipment received from suppliers.  Loss or failure of key manufacturing infrastructure or equipment may impact the Company’s operations and lead to loss of revenue and/or increased costs.  Due to the bespoke nature of much of the Company’s manufacturing equipment, the business may potentially have a higher risk as compared to off-the-shelf equipment, that new commissioning of such equipment is delayed and/or the equipment supplier claims additional costs for modifications during the commissioning phase, that the equipment does not perform to the level expected or meet the process requirements or that the equipment breaks down or requires repair or refurbishment.  As a manufacturer of a highly complex and innovative product (which is continuing to evolve), and which requires bespoke equipment to be designed and produced for numerous steps of the production process, the Company is subject to inherent risks in the development and use of new technology, including equipment not performing to the level expected, product quality not being to the level desired, and manual labor required to finish wheels being greater than expected.  New wheel designs for new customers or other changes to product and process may take longer to achieve customer validation than expected, may be more difficult to manufacture than expected, may cost more to manufacture than expected, or may result in more quality issues than expected resulting in lower returns than anticipated.  Failure to have systems and processes in place, or failure to adhere to such systems and processes, that ensure robust compliance with contractual requirements, product specifications, and quality systems, resulting in increased cost, scrap or quality issues, or shipping of wheels not according to specification.  Customer return and warranty claims may be higher than expected.  The Company may suffer reputational damage or incur liability due to poor product performance or failures, product recalls or other issues with its wheels.  As a supplier in the automotive industry, the Company may be exposed to severe product liability claims, including claims for bodily injury and/or death.  The Company may be unable to retain and increase its workforce as required, or the cost of doing so may be higher than expected. Workforce engagement issues and industrial action may impact the Company’s operations and growth. Further, loss of or failure to replace or hire key persons may impact the Company’s operations and growth.  Labor strikes in the U.S. automotive industry may have an adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s products and the financial condition of its customers.  Force majeure events may have an adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s products and on its supply chain and ability to manufacture according to customer demand, resulting in lower revenue and/or increased costs.  Risks associated with COVID-19, other pandemics, and other macroeconomic factors may impact the Company’s operations and financial performance.  The Russian-Ukrainian and Israel-Hamas conflicts or other similar disputes may have an impact on global supply chains, materials availability, materials costs and transport and logistics costs.  The Company’s business may be impacted by climate change, existing or new environmental regulations, and related risks.  The Company may be legally required, or may face increased pressure from stakeholders, to find a recycle and re-use solution for scrap and end-of life wheels; doing so may take longer than expected, cost more than expected, or not be feasible.  The Company may be unable to meet government, stock exchange, investor, customer or consumer standards, requirements and expectations, particularly in relation to environmental, social and governance matters, or may incur substantial costs in doing so.   Workplace incidents or accidents may occur that may damage the Company’s reputation and/or expose the Company to claims and litigation, increased insurance premiums or otherwise adversely impact operations.  Risk Factors (cont.)  27 

 Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property  The Company manufactures and supplies a complex product incorporating many technologies, components and materials. If a court upheld a third-party intellectual property infringement claim against the Company, the Company may be subject to adverse court rulings or orders, including in relation to injunctions, declarations and/or the payment of damages.  There are geographical and other limitations to the Company’s patent and trademark portfolio, including because it is not economically feasible to register all such intellectual property in all jurisdictions around the world.  The Company’s confidential wheel process know-how and trade secrets have been developed over many years, and any unauthorized access to use or disclosure of relevant materials and information could materially and adversely impair the Company’s prospects.   The Company may not be able to protect, register and maintain its intellectual property rights.   The Company’s business and prospects depend on our ability to build our brand. We may not succeed in continuing to establish, maintain, and strengthen our brand, and our brand and reputation could be harmed by negative publicity regarding our company or products.  The Company may be unable to enforce its intellectual property and may be involved in disputes regarding intellectual property or contractual obligations.  The Company may face the risk of being restricted in the use of intellectual property developed jointly with another party coupled with restrictive exclusive supply of goods arrangements if the Company has been unable to reach an agreement to the contrary in advance with the relevant party.  Cybersecurity Risks  The Company’s or a third party’s information technology systems or processes may fail, become materially inoperable or be subject to attack and the Company’s business may be adversely impacted.  The Company’s customer contracts impose IT and cybersecurity compliance requirements and allow for the customer to audit the Company’s systems.  Any confidential information held by the Company could be accessed by third parties via IT security breaches, attacks, ransomware, hacking and similar actions or occurrences, potentially exposing the Company to liability.  An attack, ransomware or the like on or to the Company’s IT systems may expose any third-party IT systems integrated or linked to the Company’s IT systems depending on their level of vulnerability and this could expose the Company to liability.  Other Business and Industry Risks  The Company’s competitive position or market share may deteriorate including as a result of actions by it or its competitors.  The concentration of the Company’s wheel programs and customers may adversely affect demand for the Company’s wheels if its relationships with customers deteriorate.  The Company’s OEM customer relationships may deteriorate due to financial stress from general business conditions. If the Company requests non-standard terms, proposes changes to terms already agreed, or requests advanced payment from OEM customers, this may cause such customers to designate the Company a “distressed supplier,” which may have short and long term impact on continued business with the OEMs, the terms upon which the OEMs are willing to continue engaging the Company, and the OEMs’ motivation to encourage competitors to the Company.  The Company’s estimates of the size of the addressable market may be incorrect.  The Company may forego business or lose certain customer relationships as a result of not having the production capacity to meet customer demand, or not having the funds to expand production capacity to meet customer demand. the Company may be liable to its customers if it cannot meet minimum capacity obligations.  Risk Factors (cont.)  28 

 The timing of the Company’s recognition of revenue and any working capital financing requirements depend upon the terms of its agreements with its customers and may be adversely affected if the Company is required to recognize revenue upon the delivery to its customers rather than on shipment (given normal delivery timelines can be up to or greater than several months), unless the Company can negotiate more favorable terms (which may not be possible).  The Company’s forecasts are based upon certain assumptions with respect to the determination of backlog and other metrics, including assumptions with respect to the timing and quantity of orders under awarded programs, conversion of programs in development to awarded status, the timing of new program commencement, and recognition of revenue, which assumptions may not be realized.  The Company may fail to meet forecasts.  The Company may not be able to reduce supply chain costs or production costs as quickly as expected or to the same extent as expected, resulting in higher cost per wheel and lower margins than expected.  The Company is subject to fluctuations in financial markets and exchange rates.  Compliance costs associated with changes in regulations and policies may negatively impact the Company.  Working capital financing may not be available, or may cost more, to fund the expected growth in working capital requirements of the Company’s business.  Non-compliance with applicable laws, regulations and OEM standards, including environmental laws and regulations or the cost of compliance therewith may adversely affect the Company.  We face additional business, political, regulatory, operational, financial and economic risks as part of our operation in international markets, which could increase our costs or otherwise limit our growth.  Economic developments such as inflation or raising interest rates may adversely affect the Company’s operations and profitability.  Research and development work may cost more than expected or take longer than expected or not deliver the expected results.  The Company may be unable to obtain tax incentives or realize the benefit of accumulated tax losses in the future.  The Company may be or become a PFIC, which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders.  The Company has received government grant payments that may be subject to clawback, and expects to receive future government grant payments which may not materialize.  Known and unknown legal proceedings, regulatory proceedings, investigations or claims against the Company may be costly and time-consuming to defend and may harm its reputation and damage its business regardless of the outcome.  The Company has identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. If the Company is unable to remediate these material weaknesses, or if the Company identifies additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fails to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, this may result in material misstatements of the Company’s consolidated financial statements or cause the Company to fail to meet its periodic reporting obligations.  The Company’s business activities may be subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (“FCPA”) and similar anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws.  The Company’s international operations are subject to laws and regulations relating to export controls and economic sanctions that could impair its ability to compete in international markets. Non-compliance could also have an adverse effect on its business.  Failure to comply with laws, regulations, requirements, or expectations relating to privacy or the protection or transfer of data relating to individuals could adversely affect our business.  Risks Related to Irish Law  The Company is incorporated in Ireland; Irish law differs from the laws in effect in the United States and accordingly the rights afforded to shareholders under Irish law may be different to those afforded to shareholders under United States law.  Risk Factors (cont.)  29 

 As an Irish public limited company, certain decisions to change the capital structure of the Company will require the approval of the Company shareholders, which may limit the Company’s flexibility with respect to managing its capital structure.  Any attempted takeover of the Company will be subject to the Irish Takeover Rules and will be under the jurisdiction of the Irish Takeover Panel.  Under the Irish Takeover Rules, a person, or persons acting in concert, who acquire(s), or consolidate(s), control of the Company may be required to make a mandatory cash offer for the remaining shares of the Company.  The Company’s staggered board will limit shareholders’ ability to influence matters of corporate governance and may deter others from pursuing change of control transactions.  Provisions in the Company Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (including anti-takeover provisions) and under Irish law could make an acquisition of the Company more difficult, may limit attempts by the Company shareholders to replace or remove the Company directors, may limit shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with the Company or the Company directors, officers, or employees, and may impact the market price of the Ordinary Shares and/or the Company warrants.  Irish law requires the Company to have available “distributable profits” to pay dividends to shareholders and generally to make share repurchases and redemptions.  In certain limited circumstances, dividends paid by the Company may be subject to Irish dividend withholding tax.  Dividends received by Irish residents and certain other shareholders may be subject to Irish income tax.  The Ordinary Shares or warrants issued by the Company received by means of a gift or inheritance could be subject to Irish capital acquisitions tax.  Certain transfers of Ordinary Shares and warrants issued by the Company may be subject to Irish stamp duty.  Investors may face difficulties in protecting their interests, and their ability to protect their rights through the U.S. federal courts may be limited, because the Company is formed under Irish law.  Risks Related to Ownership of Our Securities  The market price of securities may be volatile and may fluctuate due to factors beyond our control.  The Public Warrants may never be in the money and may expire worthless.  Warrant holders will have no rights as ordinary shareholders until they acquire our Ordinary Shares.  Our operating results may fluctuate significantly or may fall below the expectations of investors or securities analysts, each of which may cause the price of our securities to fluctuate or decline.  If securities or industry analysts do not continue to publish research, or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research, about our business, the price of our securities and our trading volume could decline.  The issuance of Ordinary Shares in connection with the exercise of the Public Warrants will dilute the ownership interest of the holders of our Ordinary Shares and may materially affect the trading price of our Ordinary Shares.  We have never paid dividends and do not expect to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.  We are a foreign private issuer, and, as a result, we are not subject to certain rules and obligations that are applicable to a U.S. domestic public company and are not subject to certain Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards that are applicable to a Nasdaq-listed U.S. domestic public company.  We may lose our foreign private issuer status, which would then require us to comply with the Exchange Act’s domestic reporting regime and cause us to incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses.  We are an emerging growth company, and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies make our Ordinary Shares less attractive to investors.  Risk Factors (cont.)  30
