Northern Revival Acquisition
Corporation (formerly known as Noble Rock Acquisition Corporation, the “Company”) held an extraordinary general

and voting upon:

of Association (the “charter”)
to change the name of the company from Noble Rock Acquisition Corporation to Northern Revival
Acquisition Corporation (the “Name Change Proposal”). |
| ● | a
special resolution, to amend the charter to change certain provisions which restrict the
Company’s Class B ordinary shares from converting to Class A ordinary shares prior
to the closing of the business combination (the “Conversion Proposal”). |
| ● | an
ordinary resolution, to approve the adjournment of the General Meeting to a later date or
dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that
there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the name
change or conversion proposals (the “Adjournment Proposal”), which was
to be presented at the meeting if, based on the tabulated votes, there are not sufficient
votes at the time of the general meeting to approve the foregoing proposals. |
For
more information on these proposals, please refer to the Company’s proxy statement dated February 27, 2023 (the “Proxy
Statement”). The Name Change Proposal and Conversion Proposal were approved by the shareholders at the General Meeting.
The form of the resulting amendments are filed as Exhibits 3.1 and
