		Re:	Initial Public Offering



 


Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


This letter (this “Letter
Agreement”) is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting
Agreement”) entered into by and among InterPrivate IV InfraTech Partners Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representatives (the “Representatives”)
of the several underwriters (each, an “Underwriter” and collectively, the “Underwriters”),
relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “Public Offering”), of up to 28,750,000
of the Company’s units (including up to 3,750,000 units that may be purchased by the Underwriters to cover over-allotments,
if any) (the “Units”), each comprised of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), and one-fifth of one redeemable warrant. Each
whole warrant (each, a “Warrant”) entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common
Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described in the Prospectus (as defined below). The Units will be
sold in the Public Offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 and prospectus (the “Prospectus”)
filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and the Company
has applied to have the Units listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph
10 hereof.


 


In order to induce
the Company and the Underwriters to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the Public Offering and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each of InterPrivate Acquisition
Management IV, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”) and the undersigned individuals,
each of whom is a member of the Company’s board of directors and/or management team (each of the undersigned individuals,
an “Insider” and collectively, the “Insiders”), hereby agrees with the
Company as follows:


 


1. The
Sponsor and each Insider agrees that if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection
with such proposed Business Combination, it, he or she shall (i) vote any shares of Common Stock (as defined below) owned by it,
him or her in favor of any proposed Business Combination and (ii) not redeem any shares of Common Stock owned by it, him or her
in connection with such stockholder approval. If the Company seeks to consummate a proposed Business Combination by engaging in
a tender offer, the Sponsor and each Insider agrees that it, he or she will not sell or tender any shares of Common Stock owned
by it, him or her in connection therewith.


 






     


     


    

 


2. The
Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 24
months from the closing of the Public Offering, or such later period approved by the Company’s stockholders in accordance
with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Charter”),
the Sponsor and each Insider shall take all reasonable steps to cause the Company to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose
of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the shares
of Class A Common Stock sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering (the “Offering Shares”),
at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (as defined below), including
interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to
$100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption
will completely extinguish all Public Stockholders’ (as defined below) rights as stockholders (including the right to receive
further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to
the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve,
subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements
of applicable law. The Sponsor and each Insider agrees to not propose any amendment to the Charter to modify the substance or timing
of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with its initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of
the Offering Shares if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within the required time period set forth in the
Charter or with respect to any other provisions relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity,
unless the Company provides its Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Offering Shares upon approval of any such
amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including
interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by
the number of then outstanding Offering Shares.


 


The Sponsor and each
Insider acknowledges that it, he or she has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust
Account or any other asset of the Company as a result of any liquidation of the Company with respect to the Founder Shares held
by it, him or her. The Sponsor and each Insider hereby further waives, with respect to any shares of Common Stock held by it, him
or her, if any, any redemption rights it, he or she may have in connection with (A) the consummation of a Business Combination,
including, without limitation, any such rights available in the context of a stockholder vote to approve such Business Combination,
or (B) a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Charter to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation
to allow redemption in connection with its initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the Company
has not consummated a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Charter or with respect to any other provisions
relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity or in the context of a tender offer made by
the Company to purchase Offering Shares (although the Sponsor, the Insiders and their respective affiliates shall be entitled to
redemption and liquidation rights with respect to any Offering Shares it or they hold if the Company fails to consummate a Business
Combination within the time period set forth in the Charter).


 


3. During
the period commencing on the effective date of the Underwriting Agreement and ending 180 days after such date, the Sponsor and
each Insider shall not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to
sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly,
or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section
16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and
regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, with respect to, any Units, shares of Common Stock (including, but not limited
to, Founder Shares), Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock owned
by it, him or her, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic
consequences of ownership of any Units, shares of Common Stock (including, but not limited to, Founder Shares), Warrants or any
securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock owned by it, him or her, whether any such
transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to
effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii).

4. In
the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account upon the failure of the Company to consummate its initial Business Combination
within the time period set forth in the Charter, the Sponsor (the “Indemnitor”) agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless the Company against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited
to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, whether
pending or threatened) to which the Company may become subject as a result of any claim by (i) any third party for services rendered
or products sold to the Company or (ii) any prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter
of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or Business Combination agreement (a “Target”);
provided, however, that such indemnification of the Company by the Indemnitor (x) shall apply only to the extent necessary to ensure
that such claims by a third party or a Target do not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i)
$10.00 per Offering Share and (ii) the actual amount per Offering Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation
of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per Offering Share is then held in the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of
the trust assets, less taxes payable, (y) shall not apply to any claims by a third party or a Target which executed a waiver of
any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) and (z) shall not apply
to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Indemnitor shall have the right to defend against any such claim with counsel of its
choice reasonably satisfactory to the Company if, within 15 days following written receipt of notice of the claim to the Indemnitor,
the Indemnitor notifies the Company in writing that it shall undertake such defense.


 


5. To
the extent that the Underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 3,750,000 Units within
45 days from the date of the Prospectus (and as further described in the Prospectus) in full, the Sponsor agrees to forfeit, at
no cost, a number of Founder Shares in the aggregate equal to 937,500 multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is 3,750,000
minus the number of Units purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise of their over-allotment option, and (ii) the denominator
of which is 3,750,000. The forfeiture will be adjusted to the extent that the over-allotment option is not exercised in full by
the Underwriters so that the Founder Shares will represent an aggregate of 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding
shares of Class A Common Stock after the Public Offering (not including shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Warrants
or Private Placement Warrants (as defined below)). The Sponsor further agrees that to the extent that the size of the Public Offering
is increased or decreased, the Company will purchase or sell Units or effect a share repurchase or share capitalization, as applicable,
immediately prior to the consummation of the Public Offering in such amount as to maintain the ownership of the initial shareholders
prior to the Public Offering at 20.0% of its issued and outstanding Capital Shares upon the consummation of the Public Offering.
In connection with such increase or decrease in the size of the Public Offering, then (A) the references to 3,750,000 in the numerator
and denominator of the formula in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be changed to a number equal to 15% of the number
of Public Shares included in the Units issued in the Public Offering and (B) the reference to 937,500 in the formula set forth
in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be adjusted to such number of Founder Shares that the Sponsor would have to surrender
to the Company in order for the initial shareholders to hold an aggregate of 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding
shares of Class A Common Stock after the Public Offering (not including shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the Warrants
or Private Placement Warrants).


 


6. The
Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (i) the Underwriters and the Company would be irreparably injured
in the event of a breach by such Sponsor or an Insider of its, his or her obligations under paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7(a), and
7(b), as applicable, of this Letter Agreement (ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (iii) the
non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or
in equity, in the event of such breach.


 






    3 


     


    

 


7. (a) The
Sponsor and each Insider agrees that it, he or she shall not Transfer any Founder Shares (or any shares of Class A Common
Stock issuable (i) with respect to 50% of such shares, for a period ending on the earlier of the one-year anniversary of the
date of the consummation of our initial business combination and the date on which the closing price of our Class A Common
Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations,
recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period following the consummation of our
initial business combination and (ii) with respect to the remaining 50% of such shares, for a period ending on the one-year
anniversary of the date of the consummation of our initial business combination, or earlier if, subsequent to our initial
business combination, we consummate a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all
of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property (the
“Founder Shares Lock-up Period”).


 


(b) The
Sponsor and each Insider agrees that it, he or she shall not Transfer any Private Placement Warrants (or any share of Class A Common
Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants), until 30 days after the completion of the initial
Business Combination (the “Private Placement Warrants Lock-up Period”, together with the Founder Shares
Lock-up Period, the “Lock-up Periods”).


 


(c) Notwithstanding
the provisions set forth in paragraphs 7(a) and (b), Transfers of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and shares of
Class A Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Private Placement Warrants or the Founder Shares
that are held by the Sponsor, any Insider or any of their permitted transferees (that have complied with this paragraph 7(c)),
are permitted (a) to the Company’s officers, directors, advisors or consultants, any affiliate or family member of any of
the Company’s officers or directors, any affiliate of the Sponsor or to any members of the Sponsor or any of their affiliates;
(b) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of such individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary
of which is a member of such individual’s immediate family, an affiliate of such individual or to a charitable organization;
(c) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of such individual; (d) in the case
of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) by private sales or transfers made in connection with any
forward purchase agreement or similar arrangement or in connection with the consummation of an initial Business Combination at
prices no greater than the price at which the securities were originally purchased; (f) in the event of the Company’s liquidation
prior to the completion of an initial Business Combination; (g) by virtue of the laws of the State of Delaware or the Sponsor’s
limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the Sponsor; or (h) in the event of the Company’s liquidation, merger,
capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s stockholders having
the right to exchange their shares of Class A Common Stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the Company’s
completion of an initial Business Combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e) or
(g), these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement with the Company agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions
herein and the other restrictions contained in this Agreement (including provisions relating to voting, the Trust Account and liquidating
distributions).


 


8. The
Sponsor and each Insider represents and warrants that it, he or she has never been suspended or expelled from membership in any
securities or commodities exchange or association or had a securities or commodities license or registration denied, suspended
or revoked. Each Insider’s biographical information furnished to the Company (including any such information included in
