\n DEVELOPER OF INDI ONE ELECTRIC VEHICLE PLANS TO GO PUBLIC ON NASDAQ CAPITAL MARKET<\/em>\n <\/p>\n

\n Los Angeles CA, Sept. 26, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — <\/strong>Indiev, Inc. (\u201cINDIEV\u201d), an electronic vehicle company specializing in the design of next generation electric vehicles, and Malacca Straits Acquisition Company Limited (Nasdaq: MLAC) (\u201cMalacca\u201d), a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), today announced they have entered into a definitive merger agreement for a business combination that will result in INDIEV becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Malacca.<\/p>\n

INDIEV was founded in 2017 on the idea that the future of personal mobility will no longer be defined solely by horsepower or top speed, but rather from the connectivity, customizability, and processing power offered to drivers and passengers. Currently, the gap between the level of computing power available to individuals on their phones and at home compared to their personal vehicles is astronomical.<\/p>\n

Under the terms of the merger agreement, INDIEV will merge with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Malacca and the holders of the outstanding INDIEV shares will receive shares in Malacca valued at $600 million (subject to adjustments). In addition, the holders of INDIEV shares will be eligible to earn up to an additional 20,000,000 shares (approximately $200 million at current prices) on the achievement of performance milestones related to the price of the combined company\u2019s common stock for the period starting 150 days after the closing until December 31, 2024 and vehicle sales targets for the first and second full years following closing.<\/p>\n

Concurrently with the signing of the Merger Agreement, Mr. Hai Shi, founder and Chief Executive Officer of INDIEV has signed a subscription agreement to purchase $15 million of shares in Malacca at a price of $10.00 per share (the \u201cPIPE Transaction\u201d).<\/p>\n

\u201cThis transaction marks a significant milestone for INDI, expanding financial and strategic opportunities as we transition from design to manufacturing of our INDI One,\u201d said Mr. Hai Shi, Chief Executive Officer of INDIEV. \u201cI would like to thank the entire INDI team for bringing us to this milestone, and Malacca for providing this opportunity to write the next chapter of INDI\u2019s story.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are impressed not only with INDI\u2019s unique automotive designs and its vision, but with the level of development that they have achieved and the efficiency with which they have deployed capital,\u201d said Mr. Gordon Lo, Chief Executive Officer of Malacca. \u201cWe see this acquisition as a significant value driver for our shareholders.\u201d<\/p>\n

INDIEV\u2019s executive officers, including Mr. Shi, will lead the\u00a0combined company. Prior to closing INDIEV is expected to appoint a board of directors of five individuals, which will meet all corporate governance requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, including a majority of independent directors, and any required California state diversity requirements.<\/p>\n

The Boards of Directors of both INDIEV and Malacca have unanimously approved the proposed merger, which is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of all regulatory approvals, approval of the proposed merger by INDIEV and Malacca\u2019s shareholders, and approval for listing of the combined company\u2019s shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market.<\/p>\n

The closing under the merger agreement and the PIPE transaction is anticipated to occur in the first quarter of 2023, with Malacca to domesticate from the Cayman Islands to a Delaware corporation prior to the closing. Malacca will be rebranded and operate as \u201cINDI Electric Vehicles Inc.\u201d and is expected to list on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol \u201cINEV.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton, LLP served as legal advisors to INDIEV. Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP served as legal advisors to Malacca. Maples Group acted as Cayman Islands counsel to Malacca.<\/p>\n

Additional information about the transaction will be provided in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by Malacca with the Securities and Exchange Commission (\u201cSEC\u201d) and will be available at the SEC\u2019s website, www.sec.gov.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the \u201csafe harbor\u201d provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Malacca\u2019s and INDIEV\u2019s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements that are other than statements of historical facts. No representations or warranties, express or implied are given in, or in respect of, this press release. When we use words such as \u201cmay,\u201d \u201cwill,\u201d \u201cintend,\u201d \u201cshould,\u201d \u201cbelieve,\u201d \u201cexpect,\u201d \u201canticipate,\u201d \u201cproject,\u201d \u201cestimate\u201d or similar expressions that do not relate solely to historical matters, it is making forward-looking statements.<\/p>\n

These forward-looking statements and factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: the ability of the parties to complete the transactions contemplated by the Proposed Business Combination in a timely manner or at all; the risk that the Proposed Business Combination or other business combination may not be completed by Malacca\u2019s business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Malacca, INDIEV or others following the announcement of the Proposed Business Combination and any definitive agreements with respect thereto; the inability to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination, including the approval of the Proposed Business Combination by the shareholders of Malacca; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement relating to the Proposed Business Combination; the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards following the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination; the effect of the announcement or pendency of the Proposed Business Combination on INDIEV\u2019s business relationships, operating results, current plans and operations of INDIEV; the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of INDIEV to grow and manage growth profitably; the possibility that INDIEV may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and\/or competitive factors ; INDIEV\u2019s estimates of expenses and profitability; expectations with respect to future operating and financial performance and growth, including the timing of the completion of the Proposed Business Combination; INDIEV\u2019s ability to execute on their business plans and strategy; and other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in filings with the SEC.<\/p>\n

The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the \u201cRisk Factors\u201d section of the Registration Statement referenced above and other documents filed by Malacca from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. There may be additional risks that neither Malacca nor INDIEV presently know, or that Malacca and INDIEV currently believe are immaterial, that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. For these reasons, among others, investors and other interested persons are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements in this press release.
