Do Not Forward
Dear Colleagues,
I am thrilled to share some exciting news
about the future of ECARX. Today, we announced our intention to take our company public and to list on Nasdaq in New York. We will list
via a merger with COVA Acquisition Corp., a U.S.-based special purpose acquisition company whose leadership has an exceptional track record
of partnering with high-growth companies in our sector.
COVA shares our entrepreneurial vision for ECARX, and we look
forward to working with their team to unlock strategic partnerships and other collaborative opportunities that will accelerate development
of our technologies and drive rapid growth for ECARX.
I want to thank all of you for your tireless efforts and contributions
to making ECARX the company that it is today. Our ability to go public is a testament to your hard work and the value you’ve created
for the company. Today’s announcement should not bring any major changes to our day-to-day work and we must all remain focused on
delivering for our partners and customers.
Due to U.S. federal securities laws and regulations, it is important
to remind everyone not to communicate publicly about this transaction through any channels. If you receive any external inquiries
from media, investors or other interested parties, please forward them to Linda Zhang in China or Nikki Rooke internationally.
As we enter this new phase of growth as a publicly
traded company, we expect to receive new funding, which will enable us to accelerate and execute on our strategic vision. We will also
be able to more effectively amplify our recruiting efforts to attract the best talent, fuel our international expansion efforts, and drive
development of the next generation of automotive intelligence.
For your reference, I am attaching an FAQ that
provides more detail on today’s announcement. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to your managers.
Congratulations team!
Best,
Ziyu Shen

Shareholders of COVA and other interested persons are encouraged to read, when available, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus

once available, can also be obtained, without charge, at the SEC’s website ( www.sec.gov).

No Offer or Solicitation
This communication is not a proxy statement or solicitation
of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the potential transaction and does not constitute
an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of COVA or ECARX, nor shall there be any sale of any such securities
in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under
the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements

Forward-Looking Statements
This communication contains forward-looking statements within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are based on beliefs and
assumptions and on information currently available to COVA and ECARX.
All statements other than statements of historical fact contained
in this communication are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words:
“may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,”
“plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,”
“potential,” “continue,” “ongoing,” “target,” “seek” or the negative or plural
of these words, or other similar expressions that are predictions or indicate future events or prospects, although not all forward-looking
statements contain these words. These statements are based upon estimates and forecasts and reflect the views, assumptions, expectations,
and opinions of COVA and ECARX, which involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, levels of activity,
performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Any such estimates,
assumptions, expectations, forecasts, views or opinions, whether or not identified in this communication, should be regarded as preliminary
and for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results. Although each of COVA
and ECARX believes that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this communication, each of COVA and
ECARX caution you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known and projections of the future,
which are inherently uncertain. In addition, there will be risks and uncertainties described in the proxy statement/prospectus on Form
F-4 relating to the proposed transaction, which is expected to be filed by ECARX with the SEC and other documents filed by COVA or ECARX
from time to time with the SEC. These filings may identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
events and results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Neither COVA nor ECARX can
assure you that the forward-looking statements in this communication will prove to be accurate. These forward-looking statements are subject
to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the ability to complete the business combination due to the failure to obtain approval
from COVA shareholders or satisfy other closing conditions in the merger agreement, the occurrence of any event that could give rise to
the termination of the merger agreement, the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the business combination, the amount of
redemption requests made by COVA public shareholders, costs related to the transaction, the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the
risk that the transaction disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the transaction, the
outcome of any potential litigation, government or regulatory proceedings and other risks and uncertainties, including those to be included
under the heading “Risk Factors” in the registration statement on Form F-4 to be filed by ECARX with the SEC and those included
under the heading “Risk Factors” in the final prospectus of COVA dated February 4, 2021 and in its subsequent filings with
the SEC. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation
or warranty by COVA or ECARX, their respective directors, officers or employees or any other person that COVA or ECARX will achieve their
objectives and plans in any specified time frame, or at all. The forward-looking statements in this communication represent the views
of COVA and ECARX as of the date of this communication. Subsequent events and developments may cause those views to change. However, while
COVA and ECARX may update these forward-looking statements in the future, COVA and ECARX specifically disclaim any obligation to do so,
except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing the
views of COVA and ECARX as of any date subsequent to the date of this communication. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed
upon the forward-looking statements.
