As Lucid Group, Inc.

C. §205, or Section 205 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “Petition”) in order to resolve potential uncertainty with respect to the Company’s capitalization resulting from a recent Court of Chancery ruling. The Court of Chancery set a hearing date for February 20, 2023.
On February 20, 2023, the hearing took place and the Court of Chancery approved the Company’s request for relief. The Court of Chancery then entered an order under 8 Del.
