(c)
On January
22, 2024, the Board appointed Mr. Michael Long as a Class III director of the Board effective immediately for a term expiring at the

Upon joining the Board, Mr. Long will participate
in the standard non-employee director compensation arrangements described under the heading “Director Compensation” in the
Company’s Proxy Statement/Prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 15, 2023.
From May 2009 until May 2022, Michael J. Long,
age 65, was the former chairman, president and chief executive officer (CEO) of Arrow Electronics, Inc. (“Arrow”). Prior to
being named CEO in May 2009, Mr. Long served as president and chief operating officer (COO) of Arrow, with responsibility for all of the
company’s operations and business units. Before that, Mr. Long served as senior vice president of Arrow and president of the company’s
Global Components business with responsibility for overseeing Arrow’s semiconductor, passive, electromechanical and connector products
and services businesses worldwide.
Mr. Long had been employed by Arrow since
1991 when Arrow merged with Schweber Electronics, a company where he held various leadership roles from 1983 to 1990. In 1994, Mr. Long
was president, Capstone Electronics, an Arrow company, and from 1995 to 1999, he was president of Gates/Arrow Distributing. From 1998
to 2005, Mr. Long was president and COO of Arrow North American Computer Products (now Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions). Mr. Long

to his appointment as a director.
On December 19, 2023,
the Company entered into a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with Mr. Long, pursuant to which Mr. Long
agreed to purchase, in a private placement that closed substantially concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination, 300,000
shares of Class A common stock at a price of $10.00 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $3,000,000, on the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement. The Company has agreed to register for resale the shares received by Mr. Long
pursuant to the Subscription Agreement and upon exercise of the PIPE Warrant (defined below) (the “Resale Registration Statement”).
If the volume weighted average price per share of the Class A common stock during the 30-day period (the “Adjustment Period”)
commencing on the date that is 30 days after the effective date of the Resale Registration Statement is declared effective (the “Adjustment
Period VWAP”) is less than $10.00 per share, Mr. Long will be entitled to receive a number of additional shares of Class A
common stock equal to the product of (x) the portion of the 300,000 shares of Class A common stock issued to Mr. Long pursuant
to the Subscription Agreement that are held by him through the end of the Adjustment Period multiplied by (y) a fraction, (A) the
numerator of which is $10.00 minus the Adjustment Period VWAP and (B) the denominator of which is the Adjustment Period VWAP. In
the event that the Adjustment Period VWAP is less than $7.00, the Adjustment Period VWAP will be deemed to be $7.00.
In connection with the
execution of the Subscription Agreement, Mobix Labs Operations issued to Mr. Long a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock
of Mobix Labs Operations at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the “PIPE Warrant”). The PIPE Warrant remains outstanding
and is exercisable for the same number of shares of Class A common stock. Exercise of the PIPE Warrant is subject to approval by the Company’s
stockholders, which stockholder approval is expected to be sought in 2024.
Except as described herein,
neither Mr. Long nor any immediate family member of Mr. Long has been a party to any transaction that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation
S-K.
The
foregoing descriptions of the Subscription Agreement and the PIPE Warrant do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety
by the terms and conditions of the Subscription Agreement and the PIPE Warrant, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 hereto,
respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
Chavant Capital Acquisition Corp.
445 Park Avenue, 9th Floor
New York, NY 10022
Ladies and Gentlemen:
In connection with the proposed business combination (the “Transaction”)
between Chavant Capital Acquisition Corp., an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (together with any successor
thereto, including after the Domestication (as defined below), the “Company”), and Mobix Labs, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (“Mobix”), Michael Long, the undersigned subscriber (the “Subscriber”) desires to subscribe
for and purchase from the Company, and the Company desires to sell and issue to the Subscriber, that number of shares of Class A
common stock of the Company (after giving effect to the Domestication), par value $0.00001 per share (referred to herein as the “Common
Shares”), set forth on the signature page hereof for a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “Per Share Price”
and the aggregate of such Per Share Price for all Shares subscribed for by the Subscriber being referred to herein as the “Purchase
Price”), on the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein. In connection with the Transaction, certain other “accredited
investors” (as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”))
or “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) may enter into separate subscription
agreements with the Company with terms no more favorable than the terms of this Subscription Agreement (the “Other Subscription
Agreements”), pursuant to which such investors (the “Other Subscribers”), together with the Subscriber pursuant
to this Subscription Agreement, would severally and not jointly, agree to purchase on the closing date of the Transaction (the “Transaction
Closing Date”) additional Common Shares at the Per Share Price (the Subscriber, together with any Other Subscribers, are referred
to herein collectively as the “Subscribers”). In connection therewith, the Subscriber and the Company agree as follows:
| 1. | Subscription; Additional Shares. |
a. Subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, the Subscriber hereby subscribes for and agrees to purchase from
the Company at the Subscription Closing (as defined herein), and the Company agrees to issue and sell to the Subscriber, such number of
Common Shares as is set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement (the “Shares”).
b. In
the event that the Adjustment Period VWAP (as defined herein) is less than $10.00 per Share (as adjusted for any stock split, reverse
stock split or similar adjustment following the closing of the Transaction), Subscriber (or its permitted assigns) shall be entitled to
receive from the Company a number of additional newly issued Common Shares equal to the product of (x) the number of Common Shares
issued to Subscriber (or its permitted assigns) on the Transaction Closing Date that Subscriber (or its permitted assigns) holds on the
Measurement Date (as defined herein), multiplied by (y) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is $10.00 (as adjusted for any
stock split, reverse stock split or similar adjustment following the closing of the Transaction) minus the Adjustment Period VWAP, and
(B) the denominator of which is the Adjustment Period VWAP (such additional shares, the “Additional Shares”).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no fraction of a Common Share will be issued pursuant to this Section 1(b), and
if Subscriber (or its permitted assigns) would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a Common Share, the number of Additional Shares
to be issued to Subscriber (or its permitted assigns) will instead be rounded down
to the nearest whole Common Share, without payment in lieu of such fractional Common Share. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that,
as a result of the Domestication, the Additional Shares, if any, issued pursuant to this Section 1(b) shall be shares of common
stock in a Delaware corporation (and not shares in a Cayman Islands exempted company).
c. For
purposes of this Subscription Agreement: (i) the “Adjustment Period VWAP” means the higher of (x) the average
of the VWAP of a Common Share, determined for each of the Trading Days during the Adjustment Period (as defined herein), and (y) $7.00
(as adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split or similar adjustment following the closing of the Transaction); (ii) the “Adjustment
Period” means the thirty (30) calendar day period beginning on and including the date that is thirty (30) calendar days after
the Resale Shelf Effectiveness Date; (iii) “business day” means a day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or other
day on which commercial banks in New York, New York or governmental authorities in the Cayman Islands (for so long as Company remains
domiciled in Cayman Islands) are authorized or required by law to close; (iv) the “Measurement Date” means the
last day of the Adjustment Period; (v) “Stock Exchange” means the securities exchange or market, if any, on which
the Common Shares are then listed; (vi) “Trading Day” means any day on which (A) there is no VWAP Market
Disruption Event and (B) trading in the Common Shares generally occurs on the Stock Exchange; provided that, if the Common
Shares are not so listed or traded on a Stock Exchange, then “Trading Day” means a business day; (vii) “VWAP
Market Disruption Event” means, with respect to any date, (A) the failure by the Stock Exchange to open for trading during
its regular trading session on such date or (B) the occurrence or existence, for more than a one half-hour period in the aggregate,
of any suspension or limitation imposed on trading (by reason of movements in price exceeding limits permitted by the relevant exchange
or otherwise) in the Common Shares or in any options contracts or futures contracts relating to the Common Shares, and such suspension
or limitation occurs or exists at any time before 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date; (viii) “VWAP” means,
for any Trading Day, the per share volume weighted average price of the Common Shares as displayed under the heading “Bloomberg
VWAP” on the applicable Bloomberg page (or, if such page is not available, its equivalent successor page) in respect of
the period from the scheduled open of trading until the scheduled close of trading of the primary trading session on such Trading Day
(or, if such volume weighted average price is unavailable, the market value of one Common Share on such Trading Day, determined, using
a volume weighted average price method, by a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm selected by the Company); and (ix) “Resale
Shelf Effectiveness Date” means the date on which the Initial Registration Statement (as defined herein) is declared effective
by the Commission (as defined below). The VWAP will be determined without regard to after-hours trading or any other trading outside of
the regular trading session.
| 2. | Closing; Additional Closing. |
a. The
consummation of the sale of the Shares contemplated hereby (the “Subscription Closing”) is contingent upon the
substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction (the “Transaction Closing”). The Subscription Closing
shall occur on the date of, and immediately prior to, the Transaction Closing, but after the Company’s de-registration as an
exempted company in the Cayman Islands and domestication into the State of Delaware pursuant to the applicable provisions of the
Cayman Islands Companies Act (As Revised) and the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the
“Domestication”). Not less than five business days prior to the scheduled Transaction Closing Date, the Company
shall provide written notice to the Subscriber (the “Closing Notice”) (i) setting forth the scheduled
Transaction Closing Date, (ii) stating that the Company reasonably expects all conditions to the Transaction Closing to be satisfied or
waived, and (iii) including wire instructions for delivery of the Purchase Price to the Escrow Agent (as defined below). Following
delivery of the Closing Notice, and upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 2 and Section 3 below,
the Subscriber shall deliver to a third-party escrow agent to be identified in the Closing Notice (the “Escrow Agent”),
at least two business days prior to the Transaction Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, the Purchase Price, which shall be held
in a segregated escrow account for the benefit of the Subscriber (the “Escrow Account”) until the Subscription Closing
pursuant to the terms of a customary escrow agreement, to be entered into by the Company and the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”),
by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Company in the Closing Notice.
On the Transaction Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to the Subscriber (i) the Shares in book-entry form, or, if required by
the Subscriber, certificated form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions whatsoever (other than those arising under state
or federal securities laws as set forth herein), in the name of the Subscriber (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions)
or to a custodian designated by the Subscriber, as applicable, and (ii) a copy of the records of the Company’s transfer agent
showing the Subscriber (or such nominee or custodian) as the owner of the Shares on and as of the Transaction Closing Date. Upon delivery
of the Shares to the Subscriber (or its nominee or custodian, if applicable), the Purchase Price shall be released from the Escrow Account
automatically and without further action by the Company or the Subscriber.
Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 2, if the Subscriber
informs the Company (1) that it is an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment
Company Act”), (2) that it is advised by an investment adviser subject to regulation under the Investment Advisers Act
of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Advisers Act”), or (3) that its internal compliance policies and procedures
so require it, then, in lieu of the settlement procedures provided above, the following shall apply: the Subscriber shall deliver as soon
as practicable prior to the Transaction Closing on the Transaction Closing Date, following receipt of evidence from the Company’s
transfer agent of the issuance to the Subscriber of the Shares, on and as of the Transaction Closing Date, the Purchase Price for the
Shares by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to an account of the Company as specified by the Company
in the Closing Notice against delivery by the Company to the Subscriber of the Shares in book entry form, or if required by the Subscriber,
certificated form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions (other than those arising under state or federal securities laws
as set forth herein), in the name of the Subscriber (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) and evidence from the
Company’s transfer agent of the issuance to the Subscriber of the Shares on and as of the Transaction Closing Date.
If the Transaction Closing does not occur within two business days
following the Subscription Closing, the Company shall promptly (but not later than two business days thereafter) cause the Purchase Price
to be returned to the Subscriber by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Subscriber,
and any book-entries or certificates representing the Shares shall be deemed repurchased and cancelled (and, in the case of certificated
shares, the Subscriber shall promptly return such certificates to the Company or, as directed by the Company, to the Company’s representative
or agent); provided that, unless this Subscription Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 8 hereof, such return
of funds shall not terminate this Subscription Agreement, and the Subscriber shall remain obliged to (i) redeliver funds to the Escrow
Agent or the Company, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 2 following the Company’s delivery to the Subscriber of
a new Closing Notice not less than two business days prior to the new scheduled Transaction Closing Date and (ii) consummate
the Subscription Closing immediately prior to or substantially concurrently with the Transaction Closing.
If this Subscription Agreement terminates in accordance with Section 8
hereof following the delivery by the Subscriber of the Purchase Price for the Shares, the Company shall promptly (but not later than two
business days after such termination) cause the Purchase Price to be returned to the Subscriber by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately
available funds to the account specified by the Subscriber.
b. If
applicable, the issuance of the Additional Shares contemplated hereby (the “Additional Closing” and together with the
Subscription Closing, each, a “Closing”) shall occur on the fifth (5th) business day following the Measurement Date
(the “Additional Closing Date” and together with the date of the Subscription Closing, each, a “Closing Date”).
On the Additional Closing Date, the Company shall, upon satisfaction (or, if applicable, waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section 3,
issue the Additional Shares to Subscriber and shall deliver (i) the Additional Shares in book entry form or, if required by the Subscriber,
certificated form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions whatsoever (other than those arising under state or federal securities
laws as set forth herein), in the name of the Subscriber (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) or to a custodian
designated by the Subscriber, as applicable, and (ii) a copy of the records of the Company’s transfer agent showing the Subscriber
(or such nominee or custodian) as the owner of the Common Shares on and as of the Additional Closing Date.
a. The
obligations of the Company to consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder are subject to the conditions that, at the applicable
Closing Date:
| i. | all representations and warranties of the Subscriber contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material
respects (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality, which representations and warranties shall be
true and correct in all respects) at and as of such Closing Date as though made on such Closing Date (except for those representations
and warranties that speak as of a specific date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (other than representations
and warranties that are qualified as to materiality, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) as
of such specified date) (collectively, the “Subscriber Bring-Down Condition”), and the Subscriber agrees that consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereunder on such Closing Date shall constitute a certification by the Subscriber to the Company that
the Subscriber Bring-Down Condition has been satisfied; and |
| ii. | the Subscriber shall have performed or complied in all material respects with all agreements and covenants required by this Subscription
Agreement to be performed or complied with by the Subscriber at or prior to such Closing Date. |
b. The obligations of the Subscriber
to consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder are subject to the conditions that, at the applicable Closing Date:
| i. | all representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material
respects (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (as defined herein),
which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) at and as of such Closing Date as though made on such
Closing Date (except for those representations and warranties that speak as of a specific date, which shall be so true and correct in
all material respects (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect, which
representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) as of such specified date) (collectively, the “Company
Bring-Down Condition”), and the Company agrees that consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder on such Closing
Date shall constitute a certification by the Company to the Subscriber that the Company Bring- Down Condition has been satisfied; |
| ii. | the Company shall have performed or complied in all material respects with all agreements and covenants required by this Subscription
Agreement; |
| iii. | no amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Transaction Agreement (as defined below and as the same exists on the
date hereof) shall have occurred that reasonably would be expected to materially and adversely affect the economic benefits that the Subscriber
reasonably would expect to receive under this Subscription Agreement, without having received the Subscriber’s prior written consent,
which such prohibition, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include the waiver of any minimum cash condition set forth in the Transaction
Agreement by the Company and/or Mobix; |
| iv. | no amendment, modification or waiver of one or more of the Other Subscription Agreements (including via a side letter or other agreement)
shall be executed that materially benefits one or more Other Subscribers unless the Subscriber has been offered the same benefits; and |
| v. | the Company shall have filed with the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), no later than fifteen calendar days prior
to the Transaction Closing Date, a listing of additional shares notification for the listing of the Shares, in accordance with Nasdaq
Listing rule 5250 (e)(2). |
c. The
obligations of each of the Company and the Subscriber to consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder are subject to the conditions
that, at the applicable Closing:
| i. | no governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation
(whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby illegal or otherwise restraining or prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and no governmental authority
shall have instituted or threatened in writing a proceeding seeking to impose any such restraint or prohibition; |
| ii. | all consents, waivers, authorizations or orders of, any notice required to be made to, and any filing or registration with, any court
or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution,
delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Shares) required to be made
in connection with the issuance and sale of the Shares shall have been obtained or made, except where the failure to so obtain or make
would not prevent the Company from consummating the transactions contemplated hereby, including the issuance and sale of the Shares; |
| iii. | in the case of the Subscription Closing, all conditions precedent to the Transaction Closing set forth in the Transaction Agreement
(as in effect on the date hereof), including the approval of the Company’s shareholders and regulatory approvals, if any, shall
have been satisfied or waived as determined by the parties to the Transaction Agreement (other than those conditions which, by their nature,
are to be satisfied by a party to the Transaction Agreement at the Transaction Closing, but subject to satisfaction or waiver by such
party of such conditions as of the Transaction Closing), and the Transaction Closing shall have been or will be scheduled to occur substantially
concurrently with the Subscription Closing; and |
| iv. | no suspension of the qualification of the Shares for offering or trading in any jurisdiction, or initiation or written threats of
any proceedings for any of such purposes, shall have occurred and be continuing. |
| d. | The Subscriber agrees that upon the occurrence of each Closing, any condition to the Subscriber’s obligations to consummate
the transactions hereunder set forth in Sections 3(b) or 3(c) hereof that was not satisfied as of such Closing shall be deemed
to have been waived by the Subscriber; provided, however, that such waiver shall only be deemed to be given if and to the extent
the Subscriber has actual knowledge of the condition not being satisfied (with no obligation on the part of the Subscriber to make any
inquiry as to the satisfaction of any such condition). |
| e. | Prior to or at each Closing Date, Subscriber shall deliver to the Company a duly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9
or appropriate Form W-8. |
4. Further
Assurances. At each Closing Date, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered such additional
documents and take such additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be practical and necessary in order to consummate the
subscription as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.
5. Company
Representations and Warranties. For purposes of this Section 5, with respect to the Subscription Closing, the term “Company”
shall refer to the Company as of the date hereof and, for purposes of only the representations contained in paragraphs (h), (l), (p) and
(q) of this Section 5, the combined company after giving effect to the Transaction. For purposes of this Section 5, with
respect to any Additional Closing, the term “Company” shall refer to the combined company after giving effect to the Transaction,
as applicable. The Company represents and warrants to the Subscriber that:
a. The
Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Cayman Islands, and, after giving
effect to the Domestication, the Company will be a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of
the State of Delaware. The Company has the corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business
as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement. As of the date hereof,
CLAY Merger Sub II, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Merger Sub”), is the only subsidiary of the Company, which
Merger Sub is expected to merge with and into Mobix, with Mobix surviving such merger. Except for the Merger Sub (or, after the completion
of the Transaction, Mobix), the Company does not directly or indirectly own any equity or similar interest in, or any interest convertible
into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity or similar interest in, any corporation, partnership, joint venture or business association
or other person. There are no outstanding contractual obligations of the Company to provide funds to, or to make any investment (in the
form of a loan, capital contribution or otherwise) in, any other person.
b. The

with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, will be free and clear
of any liens or other restrictions whatsoever (other than those specified hereunder) and will not have been issued in violation of or
subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under the Company’s organizational documents (as in effect as of immediately

or 4.8 of the Warrant Agreement, dated July 19, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer &
Trust Company. Except pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement,

unsecured convertible promissory notes) in the aggregate principal amount up to $1,500,000 issued by the Company in exchange for
working capital loans from the Company’s sponsor and other affiliates and as described in the SEC Documents (and, following
the consummation of the Transaction, as set forth in the Transaction Agreement and the schedules thereto), there are no outstanding

understandings to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any securities of the Company other
than as set forth in the SEC Documents, and as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement or described in the schedules thereto (as
in effect on the date hereof).
d. The
Shares are not, and following the Transaction Closing and each Closing Date will not be, subject to any Transfer Restriction. The term
“Transfer Restriction” means any condition to or restriction on the ability of the Subscriber to pledge, sell, assign
or otherwise transfer the Shares under any organizational document, policy or agreement of, by or with the Company, but excluding the
restrictions on transfer described in paragraph 6(c) of this Subscription Agreement with respect to the status of the Shares as “restricted
securities” pending their registration for resale or transfer under the Securities Act in accordance with the terms of this Subscription
Agreement.
e. This
Subscription Agreement and the Transaction Agreement have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming the
due authorization, execution and delivery of the same by the Subscriber, are the legally binding obligations of the Company and are enforceable
in accordance with their respective terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, winding up, insolvency,
fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, and (ii) principles
of equity, whether considered at law or equity.
f. The
execution, delivery and performance of the Subscription Agreement, the issuance and sale of the Shares and the compliance by the Company
with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein will not conflict with or result
in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition
of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of the Company or its subsidiary pursuant to the terms of (i) any
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement, guarantee, note, bond, permit, lease, license or other agreement or instrument
to which the Company or its subsidiary is a party or by which the Company or its subsidiary is bound or to which any of the property or
assets of the Company is subject, which would, in any case, reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material
adverse effect on the business, properties, financial condition, shareholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and
its subsidiary, taken as a whole, and including the combined company after giving effect to the Transaction, or prevent, materially impair,
materially delay or materially impede the ability of the Company to enter into and timely perform its obligations under this Subscription
Agreement or the Transaction Agreement, or materially affect the validity of the Shares or the legal authority or ability of the Company
to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement (a “Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result
in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of the Company; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute
or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency, taxing authority or regulatory body, domestic or
foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
g. Assuming
the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Subscriber set forth in Section 6 of this Subscription Agreement, the Company
is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with,
any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with
the execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Shares), other
than (i) filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), (ii) filings required by
applicable state securities laws, (iii) filings required by Nasdaq, including with respect to obtaining shareholder approval, (iv) filings
required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the definitive documents relating to the Transaction, (v) the filing of
a notification under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, if applicable, and (vi) where the failure of which
to obtain would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or have a
material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the issuance and
sale of the Shares.
h. The
Company is in compliance with all applicable law, except where such non-compliance would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. The Company has not received any written communication from a governmental entity that alleges that the Company is not
in compliance with or is in default or violation of any applicable law, except where such non- compliance, default or violation would
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
i. As
of the date hereof, the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of the Company are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and are listed for trading on Nasdaq under the symbol
“CLAY” (it being understood that the trading symbol will be changed in connection with the Transaction Closing). There is
no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company by Nasdaq or
the Commission, respectively, to prohibit or terminate the listing of the ordinary shares or, after giving effect to the Domestication,
the Common Shares on Nasdaq, suspend trading of such shares on Nasdaq or to deregister such shares under the Exchange Act. The Company
has taken no action that is designed to terminate or expected to result in the termination of the registration of such shares under the
Exchange Act. At each Closing Date and upon consummation of the Transaction, the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Company,
including the Shares, will be registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and the Shares shall have been approved
for listing on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance.
j. Assuming
the accuracy of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 6 of this Subscription Agreement, no registration
under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Shares by the Company to the Subscriber or to any Other Subscriber
pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements. The Shares offered hereby and pursuant to each Other Subscription Agreement (i) were
not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D of the Securities Act) and
(ii) are not being offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act,
or any state securities laws.
k. A
copy of each form, report, statement, schedule, prospectus, registration statement and other document, if any, filed by the Company with
the Commission since its initial registration of the ordinary shares under the Exchange Act (the “SEC Documents”) is
available to the Subscriber via the Commission’s EDGAR system, which SEC Documents, as of their respective filing dates, complied
in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to the SEC Documents and the rules and regulations
of the Commission promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents. None of the SEC Documents contained, when filed or, if amended,
as of the date of such amendment with respect to those disclosures that are amended, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading; provided that with respect to the information about the Company’s affiliates
contained in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 and related proxy statement (or other SEC document) to be filed by the Company
in connection with the Transaction, the representation and warranty in this sentence is made to the Company’s knowledge. The Company
has timely filed (giving effect to permissible extensions in accordance with Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act) each report, statement,
schedule, prospectus, and registration statement that the Company was required to file with the Commission since its initial registration of the ordinary shares under
the Exchange Act. The financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents comply in all material respects with applicable
accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing and
fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations
and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, year-end audit adjustments. As of
the date hereof and upon the Transaction Closing Date, there are no material outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters from
the Staff with respect to any of the SEC Documents.
l. Except
for such matters as have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect,
there is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental
entity or arbitrator outstanding against the Company.
m. Other
than the Other Subscription Agreements that the Company may enter into prior to the Subscription Closing, the Company has not entered
into and will not enter into any agreement or side letter with any Other Subscriber in connection with such Other Subscriber’s direct
or indirect investment in the Company in connection with the Subscription Closing, and such Other Subscription Agreements will not be
amended in any material respect following the date of this Subscription Agreement and will reflect the same Per Share Purchase Price and
terms that are not more favorable to such Other Subscriber thereunder than the terms of this Subscription Agreement. The Other Subscription
Agreements will not, without the prior written consent of the Subscriber, be amended in any material respect following the date of this
Subscription Agreement.
n. Neither
the Company, nor any person acting on its behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any Company security or solicited
any offers to buy any Company security under circumstances that would adversely affect reliance by the Company on Section 4(a)(2) of
the Securities Act for the exemption from registration of the offer and sale of the Shares or would require registration of the issuance
of the Shares under the Securities Act.
o. Neither
the Company, nor any person acting on its behalf has entered into any agreement or arrangement entitling any agent, broker, investment
banker, financial advisor or other person to any broker’s or finder’s fee or any other commission or similar fee in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement for which the Subscriber could become liable. No person has been or
will be paid (directly or indirectly) remuneration for solicitation of purchasers in connection with the sale of any Shares.
p. The
Company is not, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Shares will not be, an “investment company” within the meaning
of the Investment Company Act.
q. The
Company is not in default or violation (and no event has occurred which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute
a default or violation) of any term, condition or provision of (i) the Company’s organizational documents,
(ii) any loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, permit, franchise or license to
which the Company is now a party or by which the Company’s properties or assets are bound or (iii) any statute or any
judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over
the Company or any of its properties, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for defaults or violations that have not had and would not be reasonably
likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
r. None
of the Company or any of its directors and officers is (i) a person or entity named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals
and Blocked Persons administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”)
or in any sanctions-related Executive Order issued by the President of the United States and administered by OFAC (collectively, the “OFAC
List”), or a person or entity prohibited by any OFAC sanctions program, or (ii) a non-U.S. shell bank or providing banking
services indirectly to a non-U.S. shell bank.
6. Subscriber
Representations and Warranties. The Subscriber represents and warrants to the Company that:
a. The
Subscriber is (i) a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined under the Securities Act) or (ii) an “accredited
investor” (within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act), in each case, satisfying the requirements set
forth on Schedule A, and is acquiring Common Shares only for such Subscriber’s own account and not for the account of others,
or if the Subscriber is acquiring the Shares as a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, each owner of such account is
a qualified institutional buyer or accredited investor, and the Subscriber has full investment discretion with respect to each such account,
and the full power and authority to make the acknowledgements, representations and agreements herein on behalf of each owner of each such
account, and not on behalf of any other account or person or with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution
thereof in violation of the Securities Act (and shall provide the requested information on Schedule A following the signature page hereto).
b. The
Subscriber (i) is a sophisticated investor, experienced in investing in private equity transactions and capable of evaluating investment
risks independently, both in general and with regard to all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities
and (ii) has exercised independent judgment in evaluating its participation in the purchase of the Shares.
c. The
Subscriber understands that the Shares (and any Additional Shares) are being offered in a transaction not involving any public offering
within the meaning of the Securities Act and that the Common Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act. The Subscriber

absent an effective registration statement under the Securities Act except (i) to the Company or a subsidiary thereof, (ii) to
non-U.S. persons pursuant to offers and sales that occur outside the United States within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities

of cases (i) and (iii) in accordance with any applicable securities laws of the states and other jurisdictions of the United
States, and that any certificates or book-entry positions representing the Shares (and any Additional Shares) shall contain a legend to
such effect. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Shares (and any Additional Shares) will not be immediately eligible for resale or transfer
pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, that Rule 144 will not be available until 12 months following the
closing and, as a result, the Subscriber may not be able to readily resell or transfer the Shares (and any Additional Shares) and may
be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time. The Subscriber understands that
such Subscriber has been advised to consult legal counsel prior to making any offer, resale, pledge or transfer of any of the Shares (and
any Additional Shares).
d. The
Subscriber understands and agrees that the Subscriber is purchasing Common Shares directly from the Company. The Subscriber further acknowledges
that there have been no representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made to the Subscriber by the Company, its officers or directors,
or any other party to the Transaction or person or entity, expressly or by implication, other than those representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements included in this Subscription Agreement.
e. Either
(A) the Subscriber is not, and will not be acquiring or holding any Common Shares with the assets of, (i) an employee benefit
plan (described in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)),
whether or not subject to ERISA, (ii) a plan described in Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the

transaction provisions of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (collectively, “Similar Laws”), (iii) a
plan, fund or other similar program that is established or maintained outside of the United States which provides for retirement income,
a deferral of income in contemplation of retirement or payments to be made upon termination of employment, or (iv) an entity whose
assets constitute the assets of any of the foregoing described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), pursuant to ERISA or otherwise or
(B) the Subscriber’s acquisition and holding of the Common Shares will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited
transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a violation of any applicable Similar Law.
f. The
Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Subscriber has received and has had an adequate opportunity to review, such audited and unaudited
financial information of the Company and Mobix and such other information as the Subscriber deems necessary in order to make an investment
decision with respect to the Shares and made its own assessment and is satisfied concerning the relevant tax and other economic considerations
relevant to the Subscriber’s investment in the Shares. The Subscriber acknowledges that the financial information of Mobix supplied
to the Subscriber prior to the date hereof in respect of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 is unaudited and subject to change.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Subscriber acknowledges that such Subscriber has reviewed the risk factors provided
to the Subscriber by the Company. The Subscriber represents and agrees that the Subscriber and the Subscriber’s professional advisor(s),
if any, have had the opportunity to ask such questions, receive such answers and obtain such information as the Subscriber and such Subscriber’s
professional advisor(s), if any, have deemed necessary to make an investment decision with respect to the Shares.
g. The
Subscriber became aware of this offering of the Common Shares solely by means of direct contact between the Subscriber and the
Company or a representative of the Company, and the Common Shares were offered to the Subscriber solely by direct contact between
the Subscriber and the Company or a representative of the Company. The Subscriber did not become aware of this offering of the
Common Shares, nor were the Common Shares offered to the Subscriber, by any other means. The Subscriber acknowledges the
Company’s representation and warranty that the Common Shares (i) were not offered by any form of general solicitation or
general advertising and (ii) are not being offered to it in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a
distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws.
h. The
Subscriber acknowledges that such Subscriber is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the Shares
(and any Additional Shares). The Subscriber is able to fend for himself, herself or itself in the transactions completed herein, has such
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares and has the ability to bear the economic risks of such investment in the Shares and
is able to sustain a complete loss of such investment. The Subscriber has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as the Subscriber
has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision.
i. Alone,
or together with any professional advisor(s), the Subscriber has analyzed and considered the risks of an investment in the Shares and
determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for the Subscriber and that the Subscriber is able at this time and in the foreseeable
future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of the Subscriber’s investment in the Company. The Subscriber acknowledges specifically
that a possibility of total loss exists.
j. In
making its decision to purchase the Shares, the Subscriber has relied solely upon independent investigation made by the Subscriber and
the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that Subscriber had access to, and
an adequate opportunity to review, financial and other information as Subscriber deems necessary in order to make an investment decision
with respect to the Shares.
k. The
Subscriber understands and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Shares
or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.
l. The
Subscriber is validly existing in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation, with power and authority
to enter into and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.
m. The
execution, delivery and performance by the Subscriber of this Subscription Agreement are within the powers of the Subscriber, have been
duly authorized and will not constitute or result in a breach or default under or conflict with any order, ruling or regulation of any
court or other tribunal or of any governmental commission or agency, or any agreement or other undertaking, to which the Subscriber is
a party or by which the Subscriber is bound, and will not violate any provisions of the Subscriber’s charter documents, including,
without limitation, its incorporation or formation papers, bylaws, indenture of trust or partnership or operating agreement, as may be
applicable. The signature on this Subscription Agreement is genuine, and the signatory has been duly authorized to execute the same, and
assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the same by the Company, this Subscription Agreement constitutes a legal, valid
and binding obligation of the Subscriber, enforceable against the Subscriber in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or
otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or
affecting the rights of creditors generally, and (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.
n. Neither
the due diligence investigation conducted by the Subscriber in connection with making its decision to acquire the Shares (and any Additional
Shares) nor any representations and warranties made by the Subscriber herein shall modify, amend or affect the Subscriber’s right
to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of the Company’s representations and warranties contained herein.
o. The Subscriber, its affiliates, their
agents, and any other persons acting on their behalf is not (i) a person or entity named on the OFAC List, or a person or entity
prohibited by any OFAC sanctions program, (ii) is not owned, controlled, or acting on behalf of a person or entity prohibited by
any OFAC sanctions program, (iii) located, operating, or resident in any country or territory subject to comprehensive sanctions

Cuba, Iran, North Korea and Syria), or (iv) a non-U.S. shell bank or providing banking services indirectly to a non-U.S.
shell bank. The Subscriber agrees to provide law enforcement agencies, if requested thereby, such records as required by applicable
law; provided that the Subscriber is permitted to do so under applicable law. If the Subscriber is a financial institution subject
to the Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. Section 5311 et seq.), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, and its implementing regulations
(collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), the Subscriber maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply
with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. To the extent required, the Subscriber maintains policies and procedures reasonably
designed for the screening of its investors against the OFAC sanctions programs, including the OFAC List. To the extent required, the
Subscriber maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by the Subscriber and used to purchase
the Shares were legally derived. To the extent applicable, the Subscriber further represents and warrants that the Subscriber: (x) has
conducted thorough due diligence with respect to all of its beneficial owners, (y) has established the identities of all beneficial
owners and the source of each of the beneficial owners’ funds and (z) will retain evidence of any such identities, any such
source of funds and any such due diligence. Pursuant to anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including the BSA/Patriot Act, the
Company may be required to collect documentation verifying the Subscriber’s identity and the source of funds used to acquire an
interest before, and from time to time after, acceptance by the Company of this Subscription Agreement. The Subscriber further represents
and warrants that the Subscriber does not know or have any reason to suspect that (I) the monies used to fund the Subscriber’s
investment herein have been or will be derived from or related to any illegal activities, including but not limited to, money laundering
activities, or (II) the proceeds from the Subscriber’s investment herein will be used to finance any illegal activities.
p. Subscriber will have sufficient funds to pay the Purchase Price at the Subscription Closing.
q. Notwithstanding
the percentage of the outstanding Common Shares represented by the Shares and any Additional Shares, Subscriber agrees that it shall not
exercise voting rights relating to such Shares, any Additional Shares or other Common Shares representing a 10% or greater voting interest
in the Company on any matter subject to a vote of holders of Common Shares, and agrees that it shall not obtain or exercise, as a result
of its investment in the Company, (i) “Control,” as such term is defined at 31 C.F.R. 800.208, of the Company or its
subsidiaries, (ii) access to any “material non- public technical information” within the meaning of 31 C.F.R. §
800.232 in the Company and its subsidiaries’ possession, (iii) the right to appoint any board member or board observer to the
board of directors of the Company or its subsidiaries or (iv) any involvement in any “substantive decision- making” within
the meaning of 31 C.F.R. § 800.245 related to the Company or its subsidiaries.
a. The Company agrees that, within
forty-five (45) calendar days after the Transaction Closing (the “Filing Deadline”), the Company will file with
the Commission (at the Company’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale or transfer of the
Shares (the “Initial Registration Statement”), and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
have the Initial Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the
earlier of, (i) if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” the Initial Registration Statement,
the ninetieth calendar day following the earlier of (A) the Filing Deadline and (B) the initial filing date of
the Initial Registration Statement, and (ii) the tenth business day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in
writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Initial Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will
not be subject to further review. If not included in the Initial Registration Statement, in the event that any Additional Shares
issued to Subscriber pursuant to the terms of this Subscription Agreement are not permitted by the Commission to be registered on
the Initial Registration Statement, the Company agrees that, within thirty (30) business days following the Additional Closing Date
(the “Additional Filing Deadline” and, together with the initial Filing Deadline, each, a “Filing
Deadline”), the Company will submit to or file with the Commission a registration statement for a shelf registration on
Form S-1 or Form S-3 (if the Company is then eligible to use a Form S-3 shelf registration) (an
“Additional Registration Statement” and, together with the Initial Registration Statement, each, a
“Registration Statement”), in each case, covering the resale of the Additional Shares acquired by the Subscriber
pursuant to this Subscription Agreement which are eligible for registration (determined as of two business days prior to such
submission or filing). The Company’s obligations to include the Shares or Additional Shares, as applicable, in a Registration
Statement are contingent upon the Subscriber furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding the Subscriber, the
securities of the Company held by the Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Shares or Additional Shares, as
applicable as shall be reasonably requested in writing by the Company to effect the registration of the Shares or the Additional
Shares, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are
customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations; provided, however, that the Subscriber shall not in
connection with the foregoing be required to execute any lock-up or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual
restriction on the ability to transfer the Shares or Additional Shares, as applicable. With respect to the information to be
provided by the Subscriber pursuant to this Section 7, the Company shall request such information prior to the anticipated
initial filing date of a Registration Statement. The Company will provide a draft of a Registration Statement to the Subscriber for
review at least two (2) business days in advance of its anticipated initial filing date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
Commission prevents the Company from including in a Registration Statement any or all of the Shares or Additional Shares due to
limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale or transfer of the Shares by the applicable
stockholders or otherwise, the Registration Statement shall register for resale or transfer such number of Common Shares which is
equal to the maximum number of Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable) as is permitted by the Commission. In such event, the
number of Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable) to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration
Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders, and as promptly as practicable after being permitted to
register additional Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable) under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the Company shall
file a new Registration Statement to register such Shares not included in a filed Registration Statement and cause such Registration
Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable consistent with the terms of this Section 7. If the Commission
requests that the Subscriber be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Subscriber will have an
opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the
continuous effectiveness of any Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the Shares (and
Additional Shares, as applicable) to be sold pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, until the earliest of (i) the date on
which all such Shares, and any Additional Shares, issued to Subscriber have actually been sold, (ii) the date which is three
years after the relevant Registration Statement filed hereunder is declared effective and (iii) the date on which the Shares
(and Additional Shares, as applicable) may be resold without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act. For purposes of clarification, any failure by the Company to file any Registration Statement
by a Filing Deadline or to effect such Registration Statement by date of effectiveness shall
not otherwise relieve the Company of its obligations to file or cause the effectiveness of any Registration Statement set forth in this
Section 7. For purposes of this Section 7, “Shares” or “Additional Shares” shall mean, as of any date
of determination, the Common Shares acquired by the Subscriber pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and any other equity security issued
or issuable with respect to such Shares by way of stock split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, replacement
or similar event, and “Subscriber” shall include any affiliate of the Subscriber to which the rights under this Section 7
have been duly assigned.
b. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to delay or postpone the effectiveness of any Registration
Statement, and from time to time to require the Subscriber not to sell under any Registration Statement or to suspend the effectiveness
thereof, if the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of any Registration Statement at any time would require the Company to
make an Adverse Disclosure (as defined below) or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that
are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control (each, a “Suspension Event”). In such
case, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Subscriber, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of,
or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than two occasions or for more than
ninety (90) consecutive days, or more than one hundred and fifty (150) total calendar days, in each case during any twelve-month period,
determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. Upon receipt of any such written notice from the Company or
upon written notice from the Company that any Registration Statement or related prospectus contains a Misstatement (as defined below),
the Subscriber agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Common Shares under such Registration Statement
(excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until (A) the Subscriber receives copies of a
supplemental or amended prospectus (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment
as soon as practicable after the time of such notice) that corrects the Misstatement referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective
amendment has become effective or (B) is otherwise notified by the Company that it may resume such offers and sales, and (ii) it
will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by the Company unless otherwise required
by law or subpoena. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights
under this Section 7(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended
Common Shares to a transferee of the Subscriber in connection with any sale of Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable) with respect
to which the Subscriber has entered into a contract for sale prior to Subscriber’s receipt of the notice of a Suspension Event and
which has not yet settled. If so directed by the Company, the Subscriber will deliver to the Company or, in the Subscriber’s sole
discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable) in the Subscriber’s
possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Shares
(and any Additional Shares) shall not apply (i) to the extent the Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (a) in
order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self- regulatory or professional requirements or (b) in accordance with a bona
fide pre-existing document retention policy or (ii) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic
data back-up. “Adverse Disclosure” shall mean any public disclosure of material non-public information, which disclosure,
in the good faith judgment of the Chief Executive Officer or principal financial officer of the Company or the Company’s board of
directors, after consultation with counsel to the Company, (x) would be required to be made in any Registration Statement or the
related prospectus in order for such Registration Statement or prospectus not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (y) would not be required
to be made at such time if any Registration Statement were not being filed, declared effective or used, as the case may be, and (z) the
Company has a bona fide business purpose for not making such information public. “Misstatement” shall mean an untrue
statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made in any Registration
Statement or the related prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
c. In
the case of the registration, qualification, exemption or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this Subscription Agreement,
the Company shall inform the Subscriber as to the status of such registration, qualification, exemption and compliance. At its expense
the Company shall:
| (i) | Advise the Subscriber as promptly as reasonably practicable: |
| A. | when any Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when such Registration Statement or
any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; |
| B. | of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or
for additional information; |
| C. | of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of
any proceedings for such purpose; |
| D. | of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Shares (and Additional
Shares, as applicable) included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose;
and |
| E. | subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in
any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of
the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein,
the Company shall not, when so advising the Subscriber of such events, provide the Subscriber with any material, nonpublic information
regarding the Company other than to the extent that providing notice to the Subscriber of the occurrence of the events listed in (A) through
(E) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding the Company and Subscriber is notified that such events are material,
nonpublic information at the time of notification;
| (ii) | use reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon
as reasonably practicable; |
| (iii) | upon the occurrence of any Suspension Event, except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended,
the use of a prospectus forming part of any Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to as soon as reasonably
practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other
required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable) included therein,
such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and |
| (iv) | use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Shares (and any Additional Shares) to be listed on each securities exchange or market,
if any, on which the Common Shares issued by the Company have been listed. |
d. The
Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to file in a timely manner (giving effect to permissible extensions in accordance
with Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act) all reports and other documents under the Exchange Act necessary to enable the
Subscriber to resell the Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable), pursuant to the Registration Statement. For as long as the
Subscriber holds Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable), the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to file in a
timely manner (giving effect to permissible extensions in accordance with Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act) all reports and
other documents under the Exchange Act necessary to enable the Subscriber to resell the Shares (and Additional Shares, as
applicable) pursuant to Rule 144. The Company shall, at its sole expense, upon appropriate notice from the Subscriber stating
that Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable) have been sold or transferred pursuant to an effective Registration Statement or
Rule 144, timely prepare and deliver certificates or evidence of book-entry positions representing the Shares (and Additional
Shares, as applicable) to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to such Registration Statement, which certificates or book-entry
positions shall be free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as the Subscriber may
request. Further, the Company, at its sole expense, and subject to applicable law, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
cause its legal counsel to (a) issue to the transfer agent and maintain a “blanket” legal opinion instructing the
transfer agent that, in connection with a sale or transfer of “restricted securities” (i.e., securities issued
pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act), the resale or transfer of
which restricted securities has been registered pursuant to an effective Registration Statement by the holder thereof named in such
Registration Statement, upon receipt of an appropriate broker representation letter acceptable to the Company and its counsel and
other such documentation as the Company or the Company’s counsel deems necessary and appropriate and after confirming
compliance with relevant prospectus delivery requirements, is authorized to remove any applicable restrictive legend in connection
with such sale or transfer and (b) if the Shares (and any Additional Shares) are not registered pursuant to an effective
Registration Statement, issue to the transfer agent a legal opinion to facilitate the sale or transfer of such Common Shares and
removal of any restrictive legends pursuant to any exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities
Act that may be available to a requesting Subscriber; provided that in the case of a request to remove such restrictive
legends in connection with a sale or transfer of Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable) pursuant to clause (a) or
(b) above, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company’s transfer agent to remove any
such applicable restrictive legends in connection with such sale or transfer within five business days of such request. The Company
shall pay all transfer agent fees (including, without limitation, any fees required for same-day processing of any instruction
letter delivered by the Company and any exercise notice delivered by the Subscriber), stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection
with the delivery of any Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable) to the Subscriber other than income and capital gains taxes of
the Subscriber that may be incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.
e. The
Subscriber may deliver written notice (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the Company requesting that the Subscriber not receive
notices from the Company otherwise required by this Section 7; provided, however, that the Subscriber may later revoke
any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from the Subscriber (unless subsequently revoked), (i) the
Company shall not deliver any such notices to the Subscriber and the Subscriber shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with
any such notice and (ii) each time prior to the Subscriber’s intended use of an effective Registration Statement, the Subscriber
will notify the Company in writing at least five business days in advance of such intended use, and if a notice of a Suspension Event
was previously delivered (or would have been delivered but for the provisions of this Section 7(e)) and the related suspension period
remains in effect, the Company will so notify the Subscriber, within two business days of the Subscriber’s notification to the Company,
by delivering to the Subscriber a copy of such previous notice of Suspension Event, and thereafter will provide the Subscriber with the
related notice of the conclusion of such Suspension Event immediately upon its availability.
f. The
Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Subscriber (if
the Subscriber is named as a selling shareholder under any Registration Statement), its officers, directors, employees, investment advisers
and agents, each person who controls the Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities,
costs (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of preparation and investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses
(collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any prospectus included in any Registration Statement or any form of prospectus
or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form
of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation
or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder,
in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 7, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such
untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding the Subscriber furnished
in writing to the Company by the Subscriber expressly for use therein or the Subscriber has omitted a material fact from such information;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon
a violation which occurs (A) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by a Subscriber, (B) in connection
with any failure of such person to deliver or cause to be delivered a prospectus made available by the Company in a timely manner, to
the extent such person was required to deliver or caused to be delivered such prospectus under applicable law, (C) as a result of
offers or sales effected by or on behalf of any person by means of a free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities
Act) that was not authorized in writing by the Company, or (D) in connection with any offers, sales or transfers effected by or on
behalf of a Subscriber in violation of Section 7(d) hereof. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless
of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Shares (and Additional Shares,
as applicable) by the Subscriber.
g. The
Subscriber shall, severally and not jointly with any Other Subscriber, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers,
agents and employees, and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20
of the Exchange Act), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or are
based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any prospectus included
in any Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus,
or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based upon
information regarding the Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by the Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall
the liability of any Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Subscriber upon the sale
of the Shares (and Additional Shares, as applicable) giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Such indemnity shall remain in full
force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Shares
(and Additional Shares, as applicable) by the Subscriber.
h. Any
person entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 shall (1) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party
of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any
person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) permit
such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense
is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its
consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the
defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying
party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists
between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without
the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all
respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which
settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release
from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
i. If
the indemnification provided under this Section 7 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an
indemnified party in respect of any Losses, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault
of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question,
including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made
by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified
party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or
payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall
be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 7, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably
incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 7 from any person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Each indemnifying party’s obligation to make a contribution pursuant to
this Section 7(i) shall be individual, not joint and several, and in no event shall the liability of the Subscriber hereunder
be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Subscriber upon the sale of the Shares (and any Additional
Shares) giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
8. Termination.
This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties
hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) following
the execution of a definitive agreement among the Company, Merger Sub and Mobix with respect to the Transaction (together with the exhibits
and schedules thereto and ancillary agreements specifically referenced therein, the “Transaction Agreement”), such
date and time as such Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms without the Transaction being consummated, (b) upon
the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) if any of the conditions
to the Subscription Closing set forth in Section 3 of this Subscription Agreement are not satisfied or waived upon or prior to the
Subscription Closing and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated at the
Subscription Closing, or (d) at the election of the Subscriber, if the Transaction Closing shall not have occurred by the Outside
Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement); provided that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful
breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses,
liabilities or damages arising from such breach. The Company shall promptly notify the Subscriber of the termination of the Transaction
Agreement after the termination of such agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, if any termination hereof occurs after the delivery by
the Subscriber of the Purchase Price for the Shares, the Company shall promptly (but not later than one business day thereafter) return
the Purchase Price to the Subscriber without any deduction for or on account of any tax, withholding, charges or set-off.
9. Trust Account Waiver. The Subscriber
acknowledges that the Company is a special purpose acquisition company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition,
reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses or assets. The Subscriber further acknowledges
that, as described in the Company’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated July 19, 2021 and filed with
the Commission on July 21, 2021 and available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of the Company’s assets consist of the cash
proceeds of the Company’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds
have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of the Company, its public shareholders
and the underwriters of the Company’s initial public offering, in their capacity as advisors pursuant to the Business Combination
Marketing Agreement, dated July 19, 2021, between the Company, Roth Capital Partners, LLC and Craig- Hallum Capital Group LLC.
For and in consideration of the Company entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
the Subscriber hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future,
in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account, in each case, as a result of,
or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement; provided that nothing in this Section 9 shall be deemed to limit the Subscriber’s
right, title, interest or claim to the Trust Account by virtue of the Subscriber’s record or beneficial ownership of Common Shares
of the Company acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.
10. No Short Sales. The
Subscriber hereby agrees that, from the date of this Agreement until any Additional Closing, that it will not, nor will any person
acting at the Subscriber’s direction or pursuant to any understanding with the Subscriber (including the Subscriber’s
controlled affiliates), directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, contract to sell, sell any option in, or engage in hedging
activities or execute any “short sales” (as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act) with
respect to, any shares or any securities of the Company or any instrument exchangeable for or convertible into any shares or any
securities of the Company until the consummation of the Transaction (or such earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement in
accordance with its terms). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the restrictions in this Section 10
shall not apply to (i) any sale (including the exercise of any redemption right) of securities of the Company (A) held
by the Subscriber, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Subscriber or any of its controlled
affiliates prior to the execution of this Subscription Agreement or (B) purchased by the Subscriber, its controlled affiliates
or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Subscriber or any of its controlled affiliates in open market transactions after the
execution of this Subscription Agreement, or (ii) ordinary course hedging transactions so long as the sales or borrowings
relating to such hedging transactions are not settled with the Shares and any Additional Shares subscribed for hereunder and the
number of securities sold in such transactions does not exceed the number of securities owned or subscribed for at the time of such
transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing herein shall prohibit any entities under common management with the
Subscriber that have no knowledge of this Subscription Agreement or of the Subscriber’s participation in the transactions
contemplated hereby (including the Subscriber’s affiliates) from entering into any short sales; (ii) in the case that
the Subscriber is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of the
Subscriber’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers
managing other portions of the Subscriber’s assets, this Section 10 shall only apply with respect to the portion of
assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Shares (and Additional Shares, as
applicable) covered by this Subscription Agreement.
a. The Company shall, no later than
9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first business day immediately following the date of this Subscription Agreement, issue one or
more press releases or file with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (collectively, the “Disclosure
Document”) disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Transaction and any other material,
nonpublic information that the Company, Mobix or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents has provided to
the Subscriber or any of the Subscriber’s affiliates, attorneys, agents or representatives at any time prior to the filing of
the Disclosure Document, except for any material, nonpublic information that is the subject to a non-disclosure agreement between
the Company, Mobix and Subscriber (such information, “Excluded MNPI”). From and after the issuance of the
Disclosure Document, the Subscriber and the Subscriber’s affiliates, attorneys, agents or representatives shall not be in
possession of any material, non-public information received from the Company, Mobix or any of their respective officers, directors,
employees or agents, except for Excluded MNPI, and the Subscriber shall no longer be subject to any confidentiality or similar
obligations under any current agreement, whether written or oral with the Company, Mobix, or any of their respective
affiliates, except for any agreement related to Excluded MNPI. Except with the express written consent of the Subscriber and unless
prior thereto, the Subscriber shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information, the
Company shall not, and shall cause its officers, directors, employees and agents, not to, provide Subscriber with any material,
non-public information regarding the Company or the Transaction from and after the filing of the Disclosure Document, other than to
the extent that providing notice to the Subscriber of the occurrence of the events listed in (A) through (E) of
Section 7(c)(i) herewith constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding the Company. Notwithstanding anything in
this Subscription Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not (and shall cause its officers, directors, employees or agents not
to), without the prior written consent of the Subscriber, publicly disclose the name of the Subscriber, its investment adviser or
any of their respective affiliates or advisers, or include the name of the Subscriber, its investment adviser or any of their
respective affiliates or advisers (i) in any press release, marketing materials, media or similar circumstances or
(ii) in any filing with the SEC or any regulatory agency or trading market, other than the Registration Statement, the filing
of this agreement with a Current Report on Form 8-K of the Company upon the public announcement of the Transaction and any
related description in such Form 8-K (if deemed necessary or advisable by counsel to the Company) and except (A) as
required by the federal securities law or pursuant to other routine proceedings of regulatory authorities or (B) to the extent
such disclosure is required by law, at the request of the staff of the SEC or regulatory agency or under the regulations of any
national securities exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed for trading, provided that in the case of
this clause (ii), the Company shall provide the Subscriber with prior written notice (including by e-mail) of such permitted
disclosure, and shall reasonably consult with the Subscriber regarding such disclosure.
b. Neither
this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Subscriber hereunder (other than the Shares or Additional Shares acquired
hereunder, if any) may be transferred or assigned without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, except that this Subscription
Agreement and any of the Subscriber’s rights and obligations hereunder may be assigned to any limited partner or other investor
in the Subscriber or any fund or other account managed by the same investment manager as the Subscriber or by an affiliate (as defined
in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) of such investment manager without the prior consent of the Company; provided that the
Subscriber gives prior written notice to the Company, and such assignee or transferee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to
the terms and conditions of this Subscription Agreement, makes the representations and warranties in Section 6 hereof and completes
Schedule A hereto.
c. The Company may request from the
Subscriber such additional information as the Company may deem necessary to evaluate the eligibility of the Subscriber to acquire the
Shares (and any Additional Shares), and the Subscriber promptly shall provide such information as may reasonably be requested, to the
extent readily available and to the extent consistent with its internal policies and procedures, provided that the Company agrees
to keep confidential any such information to the extent such information is not in the public domain, was not provided lawfully to the
Company by another source not under a duty of confidentiality and except to the extent disclosure of such information by the Company
is compelled by law, court order or a self-regulatory organization such as Nasdaq or The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA)
or required to be included in the Registration Statement, in which case, the Company shall provide the Subscriber with prior written
notice of any disclosure of such information if reasonably practicable and legally permitted.
d. The Subscriber acknowledges that
the Company may rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties of the Subscriber contained in
this Subscription Agreement. The Company acknowledges that the Subscriber will rely on the acknowledgements, understandings, agreements,
representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Subscription Agreement. Prior to any Additional Closing, each party hereto
agrees to promptly notify the other party if any of their respective acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and
warranties set forth in Section 5 or Section 6, as applicable, above are no longer accurate in any material respect (other
than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case such party
shall notify the other party if they are no longer accurate in any respect).
e. The
Company and the Subscriber are entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement, and each of the Company and the Subscriber is irrevocably
authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof when required by law, governmental authority or self-regulatory organization
to do so in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby.
f. All
of the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party to this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Subscription Closing.
g. This
Subscription Agreement may not be modified, waived or terminated (other than pursuant to the terms of Section 8 hereof) except by
an instrument in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of such modification, waiver, or termination is sought; provided
that any rights (but not obligations) of a party under this Subscription Agreement may be waived, in whole or in part, by such party
on its own behalf without the prior consent of any other party. No failure or delay of any party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance
of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies
that they would otherwise have hereunder.
h. This
Subscription Agreement constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and
warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as otherwise expressly set forth
in Section 7 and in subsection (b) of this Section 11, this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies
upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successor and assigns.
i. Except
as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties,
covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators,
successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.
j. If
any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the
remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force
and effect.
k. This
Subscription Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by electronic signature or email of a .pdf) and by different
parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document.
All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.
l. The
parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement were not
performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled
to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions
of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract,
in tort or otherwise.
m. Any
notice, request, claim, demand, waiver, consent, approval or other communication which is required or permitted hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed given (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (b) when received by the
addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier postage prepaid (receipt requested), (c) on the date sent by email
(with no “bounceback” or notice of non-delivery), or (d) on the third business day after the date mailed, by certified
or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. Such communications must be sent to the respective parties at the following

Execution Version
NEITHER
THIS WARRANT NOR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO SALE OR DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT: (I) EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENTS RELATED
THERETO; (II) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED;

DECEMBER 19, 2023 |
100,000 SHARES |
WARRANT
TO PURCHASE SHARES
OF
COMMON STOCK
The Warrant is
issued concurrently with the Written Consent (as defined below), and certifies that, for value received, Michael Long, and its permitted
assignees (the “Holder”), is entitled to purchase 100,000 shares (as may be adjusted pursuant to Section 4
hereof, the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the “Stock”), of MOBIX LABS, INC.,
a Delaware company, (the “Company”), at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (such price and such other price as shall
result, from time to time, from the adjustments specified in Section 4 hereof is herein referred to as the “Warrant
Price”), subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. This Warrant shall be effective
upon (i) execution and delivery of the funds set forth the Subscription Agreement (“PIPE Subscription Agreement) concurrently
entered into by and between Holder, the Company, and Chavant Capital Acquisition Corp. (“Chavant”), and (ii) the closing
of the Business Combination Agreement, whereby the Company becomes a public listed company on the Nasdaq Global Market.
1. Term.
This Warrant shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the closing of the proposed business combination contemplated by the
Business Combination Agreement and (ii) the termination of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Termination Date”).
| 2. | Method of Exercise: Payment. |
a. Subject
to Section 1 hereof, and contingent upon the substantially concurrent occurrence of the Subscription Closing (as defined
in the PIPE Subscription Agreement), the purchase right represented by this Warrant shall be exercisable by the Holder hereof
immediately prior to the Closing (as such term is defined in the Business Combination Agreement), in whole or in part, by the
surrender of this Warrant (with the notice of exercise form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A duly executed (the
“Notice of Exercise”) at the principal office of the Company and by the payment to the Company by check or wire
transfer to an account designated by the Company of an amount equal to the then applicable Warrant Price multiplied by the
number of Shares then being purchased. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent not previously exercised, contingent upon the
substantially concurrent occurrence of the Subscription Closing (as defined in the PIPE Subscription Agreement), this Warrant shall
automatically convert into the right to receive Class A common shares of the SPAC (the “SPAC Shares”)
pursuant to the merger in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. The person in whose name any certificate
representing shares of Stock shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of,
and shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of, the shares represented thereby (and such shares shall be deemed to
have been issued) immediately prior to the close of business on the date or dates upon which this Warrant is exercised. In the event
of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the shares of Stock so purchased shall be delivered to
the Holder hereof as soon as reasonably practicable after such exercise; provided, that, as long as the Company is legally permitted
to reflect share issuances in book entry or dematerialized form, the Company may deliver an electronic representation or other
evidence of the valid issuance of the Shares as to which this Warrant has been exercised. Unless this Warrant has been fully
exercised or expired, a new Warrant representing the portion of the Shares, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not
then have been exercised shall also be issued to the Holder hereof as soon as practicable.
b. This
Warrant may be exercised for less than the full number of shares of Stock first shown above, provided that this Warrant may not be exercised
in part for less than a whole number of shares of Stock. Upon any such partial exercise, the Company at its expense will forthwith issue
to the Holder a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor exercisable for the number of shares of Stock as to which rights have not been exercised
(subject to adjustment as herein provided).
3. Stock
Fully Paid: Reservation of Shares. All Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will,
upon issuance pursuant to the terms and conditions herein, be fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all preemptive or similar rights,
taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issue thereof. During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may
be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of the issue upon exercise of the purchase rights
evidenced by this Warrant such number of its duly authorized shares of Stock as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise
of this Warrant and other similar Warrants.
4. Adjustment
of Warrant Price and Number of Shares. If the Company subdivides the outstanding shares of the class of Stock by reclassification
or otherwise into a greater number of shares, the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be proportionately increased and the Warrant
Price shall be proportionately decreased. If the outstanding shares of the class of Stock are combined or consolidated, by reclassification
or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares shall be proportionately
decreased. Each adjustment in the number of Shares issuable will be to the nearest whole share and each adjustment of the Warrant Price
will be calculated to the nearest cent.
5. Notice
of Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Price or the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4
hereof, the Company shall prepare a notice setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the
adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, the Warrant Price, and the number of Shares purchasable hereunder after
giving effect to such adjustment, and promptly deliver the notice to the Holder.
6. Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares of Stock will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional shares,
the Company shall make a cash payment therefor based on the fair market value of the Stock on the date of exercise as reasonably determined
in good faith by the Company’s board of directors.
7. Compliance
with Securities Act and Other Laws: Disposition of Warrant or Shares.
a. Compliance
with Securities Act. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant, and the shares of Stock to be issued upon exercise
hereof are being acquired for investment and that such Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, or any shares
of Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof, except under circumstances that will not result in a violation of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Act”). Upon exercise of this Warrant, unless the Shares being acquired are registered under the Act
or an exemption from such registration is available, the Holder hereof shall confirm in writing that the shares of Stock so purchased
are being acquired for investment and not with a view toward distribution or resale. This Warrant and all shares of Stock issued upon
exercise of this Warrant (unless registered under the Act) shall be stamped, imprinted, or otherwise notated with a legend in substantially
the following form:
“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY
HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO SALE OR DISPOSITION MAY BE
EFFECTED WITHOUT: (I) EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENTS RELATED THERETO; (II) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE REASONABLY
SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED; (III) RECEIPT OF NO-ACTION LETTERS FROM THE APPROPRIATE GOVERNMENTAL
AUTHORITIES; OR (IV) OTHERWISE COMPLYING WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 7 OF THE WARRANT UNDER WHICH THESE SECURITIES WERE ISSUED,
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY.”
In addition, in connection with the issuance of this Warrant,
the Holder specifically represents to the Company by acceptance of this Warrant that:
i. The
Holder is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition, and has acquired information about the Company sufficient
to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire this Warrant. The Holder is acquiring this Warrant for its own account for
investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for the resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof for purposes
of the Act.
ii. The
Holder understands that this Warrant and any securities issuable upon the exercise hereof have not been registered under the Act in reliance
upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Holder’s investment
intent as expressed herein. In this connection, the Holder understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”), the statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if the Holder’s representation was predicated
solely upon a present intention to hold the Warrant for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred
sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the market price of the Warrant, or for a period of one (1) year or any other fixed
period in the future.
iii. The
Holder further understands that this Warrant and any securities issuable upon the exercise hereof must be held indefinitely unless subsequently
registered under the Act and any applicable state securities laws, or unless exemptions from registration are otherwise available.
iv. The
Holder is aware of the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated under the Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of “restricted
securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer thereof (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering
subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, if applicable, including, among other things: (i) the availability of certain
public information about the Company, the resale occurring not less than one (1) year after the party has purchased and paid for
the securities to be sold; (ii) the sale being made through a broker in an unsolicited “broker’s transaction” or
in transactions directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended); and (iii) the
amount of securities being sold during any three (3) month period not exceeding the specified limitations stated therein.
v. The
Holder further understands that at the time it wishes to sell this Warrant and any securities issuable upon the exercise hereof there
may be no public market upon which to make such a sale, and that, even if such a public market then exists, the Company may not be satisfying
the current public information requirements of Rule 144,
and that, in such event, the Holder may be precluded from selling this Warrant and any securities issuable upon the exercise hereof under
Rule 144 even if the one (1) year
minimum holding period had been satisfied.
vi. The
Holder further understands that in the event all of the requirements of Rule 144
are not satisfied, registration under the Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and
that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the
staff of the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering
and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden
of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective
brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.
vii. The
Holder is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.
viii. At
no time was Holder presented with or solicited by any publicly issued or circulated newspaper, mail, radio, television or other form of
general advertising or solicitation in connection with the offer, sale and purchase of the Warrant and any securities issuable upon the
exercise hereof.
b. Certain
Limitations on Voting, Access and Control. Notwithstanding the percentage of the outstanding Shares of the Company or the outstanding
SPAC Shares that the Holder may receive as a result of the exercise of the Warrant (or the automatic conversion of the Warrant into the
right to receive SPAC Shares pursuant to Section 2 hereof and subsequent exercise thereof), Holder agrees that it shall not exercise
voting rights relating to any such Shares of the Company or SPAC Shares representing a 10% or greater voting interest in the Company or
the SPAC on any matter subject to a vote of holders of Shares of the Company or SPAC Shares, and agrees that it shall not obtain or exercise,
as a result of its investment in the Company or the SPAC, (i) “Control,” as such term is defined at 31 C.F.R. 800.208,
of the Company, the SPAC or their respective subsidiaries, (ii) access to any “material non-public technical information”
within the meaning of 31 C.F.R. § 800.232 in the Company, the SPAC and their respective subsidiaries’ possession, (iii) the
right to appoint any board member or board observer to the board of directors of the Company or the SPAC or their respective subsidiaries
or (iv) any involvement in any “substantive decision-making” within the meaning of 31 C.F.R. § 800.245 related to
the Company, the SPAC or their respective subsidiaries.
c. Disposition
of Warrant or Shares. The Holder shall not transfer, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of this Warrant without the Company’s
prior written consent, and any attempted transfer in violation of the foregoing shall be void ab initio. With respect to any permitted
offer, sale or other disposition of this Warrant or any shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, in each case
prior to registration of such Warrant or shares, the holder hereof and each subsequent holder of this Warrant agrees to give written notice
to the Company prior thereto, describing in sufficient detail the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of such holder’s
counsel (or other evidence of compliance reasonably satisfactory to the Company), if requested by the Company, to the effect that such
offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without registration or qualification (under the Act as then in effect or any federal
or state law then in effect) of this Warrant or such shares of Stock and indicating whether or not under the Act certificates for this
Warrant or such shares of Stock to be sold or otherwise disposed of require any restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability
in order to ensure compliance with such laws. Promptly upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion (or other
evidence of compliance), if so requested, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify such holder whether such holder may sell
or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or such shares of Stock, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time that the Stock of the Company is publicly traded, such Stock may, as to such federal laws,
be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144 under the Act, provided that the Company shall have been furnished
with such information as the Company and its counsel may reasonably request to provide assurance that the provisions of Rule 144
have been satisfied. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions.
d. Applicability
of Restrictions. Neither any restrictions of any legend described in this Warrant nor the requirements of Sections 7(a) or
7(c) above shall apply to any transfer of, or grant of a security interest in, this Warrant or any part hereof made in accordance
with all applicable securities laws: (i) to a partner of the Holder if the Holder is a partnership or to a member of the Holder if
the Holder is a limited liability company; (ii) to a partnership of which the Holder is a partner or to a limited liability company
of which the Holder is a member; (iii) to any affiliate of the Holder if the Holder is an entity; or (iv) if the Holder is a
natural person, during such Holder’s lifetime or on death by will or intestacy to such Holder’s immediate family or to any
custodian or trustee for the account of such Holder or such Holder’s spouse, lineal descendant, father, mother, brother, or sister
of the Holder; provided, however, in any such transfer or granting of security interest contemplated by clauses (i) through (iv) above,

b. Severability.
Whenever possible, each provision of this Warrant will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Warrant is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in
any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this
Warrant will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never
been contained in this Warrant.
c. Entire
Agreement. This Warrant constitutes the entire agreement among the parties solely with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof
and supersedes any prior understandings or agreements between or among the parties solely with respect to the subject matter hereof and
thereof. The parties hereto make no representations or warranties to each other, express (except as contained in this Warrant) or implied,
and any and all prior representations and warranties made by any party hereto or its representatives, whether verbally or in writing,
are deemed to have been merged into this Warrant and the contemplated hereby, it being intended that no such prior representations or
warranties shall survive the execution and delivery of this Warrant. The language used in this Warrant will be deemed to be the language
chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of
strict construction will be applied against any party. Unless expressly indicated otherwise, all section references are to sections of
this Warrant.
d. Counterparts.
This Warrant may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become
effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties. In the event that any signature is delivered
by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature
page shall create a valid and
binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature
page were an original thereof.
e. Successors
and Assigns. This Warrant shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Holder and their respective successors
and permitted assigns. This Warrant is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns,
and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person.
f.
Governing Law; Venue and Waiver of Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the state of Delaware, without giving effect
to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than
the state of Delaware. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state of California for the adjudication
and binding arbitration of any dispute hereunder, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding,
any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such tribunal, that such arbitration, action or proceeding is
brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. EACH
PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY OR COURT TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY
DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS WARRANT, AND AGREES THAT ALL DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL BE ADJUDICATED
BY ARBITRATION AS SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANT.
g. Mandatory
Arbitration. Any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Warrant, whether in contract or tort, shall be
settled solely and exclusively by a binding arbitration process administered by JAMS in Orange County, California. Such arbitration
shall be conducted in accordance with the then-existing JAMS Expedited Arbitration Procedures, as set forth in the JAMS Arbitration
Rules of Practice and Procedure, with the following exceptions if in conflict: (i) one arbitrator who is a retired judge shall be
chosen by JAMS; (ii) each party to the arbitration will pay one-half of the expenses and fees of the arbitrator, together with other
expenses of the arbitration incurred or approved by the arbitrator; and (iii) arbitration may proceed in the absence of any party if
written notice (pursuant to the JAMS rules and regulations) of the proceedings has been given to such party. The parties agree to
abide by all decisions and awards rendered in such proceedings. Such decisions and awards rendered by the arbitrator shall be final
and conclusive. All such controversies, claims or disputes shall be settled in this manner in lieu of any action at law or equity;
provided, however, that nothing in this subsection shall be construed as precluding the bringing of an action for injunctive relief
or specific performance as provided in this Warrant. This dispute resolution process and any arbitration hereunder shall be
confidential and no party shall disclose the existence, contents or results of such process without the prior written consent of all
parties, except where necessary or compelled in a court to enforce this arbitration provision or an award from such arbitration or
otherwise in a legal proceeding. If JAMS no longer exists or is otherwise unavailable, the parties agree that the American
Arbitration Association (“AAA”) shall administer the arbitration in accordance with its then-existing Expedited
Procedures as set forth in the Commercial Arbitration Rules as modified by this subsection. In such event, all references herein to
JAMS shall mean AAA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, recognizing the irreparable
damage will result to the parties in the event of the breach or threatened breach of any of the covenants hereof, and that the parties’
remedies at law for any such breach or threatened breach will be inadequate, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction, including
a mandatory injunction, to be issued by any court of competent jurisdiction ordering compliance with this Warrant or enjoining and restraining
such breach.
h. Amendments
and Waivers. No provision of this Warrant may be amended or waived without the prior written consent or agreement of the Company and
Holder.
i. Business
Days. Whenever the terms of this Warrant call for the performance of a specific act on a specified date, which date falls on a Saturday,
Sunday or legal holiday, the date for the performance of such act shall be postponed to the next succeeding regular business day following
such Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
j. No
Third-Party Beneficiary. Except for the parties to this Warrant and their respective successors and assigns, nothing expressed or
implied in this Warrant is intended, or will be construed, to confer upon or give any person other than the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Warrant.
k. Titles
and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Warrant are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing
or interpreting this Warrant.
l. Transfers
in Violation of Agreement. Any transfer or attempted transfer of the Shares, or any capital stock in violation of any provision of
this Warrant shall be void, and the Company shall not record such transfer on its books or treat any purported transferee of such Shares
or capital stock as the owner of such stock for any purpose.
m. Further
Assurances. Upon the request of a party hereto, each of the parties hereto shall execute and deliver such instruments, documents and
other writings as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to confirm and carry out and to effectuate fully the intent and purposes of
this Warrant.
n. Electronic
Execution. The words “execution,”
“signed,” “signature,” and words of similar import in this Warrant shall be deemed to include electronic and digital
signatures and the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same effect, validity, and enforceability as manually
executed signatures and paper-based recordkeeping systems, to the extent and as provided for under applicable law, including the Electronic
Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act of 2000 (15 U.S.C. § 7001 et seq.), the Electronic Signatures and Records Act of 1999
(N.Y. State Tech. Law §§ 301-309), and any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Exhibit 99.1
Dear Warrant holder,
Reference
is hereby made to that certain Warrant Agreement (the “Existing Warrant Agreement”), dated July 19, 2021, by and among Chavant
Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“CST”), as modified
by that certain Amendment to Warrant Agreement (“Amendment” and the Existing Warrant Agreement, as modified by the Amendment,
the “Warrant Agreement”) dated as of December 21, 2023 by and among the Company and CST. Any capitalized term used but not
defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed such term in the Warrant Agreement. In addition, effective as of the Domestication Effective
Time, all references to the “Company” in the Existing Warrant Agreement shall instead to refer to Mobix Labs, Inc. rather
than Chavant Capital Acquisition Corp.
Pursuant
to Section 4.5 of the Warrant Agreement, the Company hereby notifies CST that:
| · | in connection with the closing of its initial Business Combination,
the Company issued additional shares of Class A Common Stock for capital raising purposes at an effective issue price of $5.03 per share
of Class A Common Stock (the "Newly Issued Price") (such price determined pursuant to Section 4.3.2 of the Warrant
Agreement), |
| · | the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represented more
than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the initial Business Combination on the date
of the consummation thereof (net of redemptions), and |
| · | the volume weighted average trading price of the shares of Class
A Common Stock during the ten (10) trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummated the
initial Business Combination (such price, the "Market Value") was $4.93 per share. |
As
a result, pursuant to Sections 4.3.2 and 4.5 of the Warrant Agreement, the (i) Warrant Price has been adjusted to $5.79 (representing
115% of the Newly Issued Price (which is greater than the Market Value)) and (ii) the Redemption Price has been adjusted to $9.06 (representing
180% of the Newly Issued Price which is greater than the Market Value).
