Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements about future financial and operating results, our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions with respect to future operations, products and services; and other statements identified by words such as "will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimated," "believe," "intend," "plan," "projection," "outlook" or words of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Graphjet's industry and market sizes, future opportunities for Energem and Graphjet, Energem and Graphjet's estimated future results and the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement, including the implied enterprise value, the expected transaction and ownership structure and the likelihood and ability of the parties to successfully consummate the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement. Such forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of our management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond our control. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

In addition to factors previously disclosed in Energem's reports filed with the SEC and those identified elsewhere in this communication, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements: (i) the risk that the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Energem's securities; (ii) the risk that the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement may not be completed by Energem's Business Combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the Business Combination deadline if sought by Energem; (iii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement, including the adoption of the Share Purchase Agreement by the shareholders of Energem, the satisfaction of the minimum cash amount following redemptions by Energem's public shareholders and the receipt of certain governmental and regulatory approvals; (iv) the lack of a track record for Graphjet to determine the market's reaction to its technology; (v) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Share Purchase Agreement; (vi) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement on Graphjet's business relationships, performance and business generally; (vii) risks that the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement disrupt current plans and operations of Graphjet; (viii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Graphjet or Energem related to the Share Purchase Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby; (ix) the ability to maintain the listing of Energem's securities on Nasdaq Global Market; (x) the price of Energem's securities, including following the Closing, may be volatile due to a variety of factors, including changes in the competitive and regulated industries in which Graphjet operates, variations in performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting Graphjet's business and changes in the capital structure; (xi) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement, and identify and realize additional opportunities; (xii) the risk of downturns and the possibility of rapid change in the highly competitive industry in which Graphjet operates, and the risk of changes in applicable law, rules, regulations and regulatory guidance that could adversely impact Graphjet's operations; (xiii) the risk that Graphjet and its current and future collaborators are unable to successfully develop and commercialize Graphjet's products or services, or experience significant delays in doing so; (xiv) the risk that Graphjet may not achieve or sustain profitability; (xv) the risk that Graphjet will need to raise additional capital to execute its business plan, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all; and (xvi) the risk that Graphjet experiences difficulties in managing its growth and expanding operations.

Actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially, and potentially adversely, from any projections and forward-looking statements and the assumptions on which those forward-looking statements are based. There can be no assurance that the data contained herein is reflective of future performance to any degree. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a predictor of future performance as projected financial information and other information are based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to various significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
