Re:
Form of Placement Unit Purchase Agreement


 


Ladies
and Gentlemen:


 


Energem
Corp. (the “Company”), a blank check company formed for the purpose of acquiring one or more businesses or entities (a “Business
Combination”), intends to register its securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”),
in connection with its initial public offering (“IPO”), pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (“Registration
Statement”). The undersigned hereby commits that it will purchase 475,575 units of the Company (“Private Units”), each
Private Unit consisting of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”),
and one warrant (the “Warrants”), with each whole warrant entitling its holder to purchase one (1) share of Class A Common
Stock, for a purchase price of $4,755,750 (the “Private Unit Purchase Price”).


 


The
undersigned hereby agrees that it will purchase an additional number of units of the Company (“Over-Allotment Units”), up
to a maximum of 52,500 Over-Allotment Units at a purchase price of $525,000 (the “Over-Allotment Purchase Price”), or a maximum
of 528,075 Private Units for a total purchase price of $5,280,750 (the Over-Allotment Unit Purchase Price together with the Private Unit
Purchase Price, being the “Purchase Price”), in the event EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC (“EF Hutton”)
exercises its over-allotment option, such that the amount held in the trust account (as described in the Registration Statement) does
not fall below $10.00 per unit sold by the Company in the IPO.


 


At
least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement, the undersigned will cause the Private Unit Purchase
Price to be delivered to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust (“CSTT”), by wire transfer as set forth in the instructions
attached as Exhibit A to hold in a non-interest bearing account until the Company consummates the IPO.


 


The
consummation of the purchase and issuance of the Private Units shall occur simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO and the consummation
of the purchase and issuance of the Over-Allotment Units shall occur simultaneously with the closing of any exercise of the over-allotment
option related to the IPO. Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, CSTT shall deposit the Private Unit Purchase Price, without
interest or deduction, into the trust fund (“Trust Fund”) established by the Company for the benefit of the Company’s
public shareholders as described in the Registration Statement. If the Company does not complete the IPO within ten (10) days from the
date of this letter, the Private Unit Purchase Price (without interest or deduction) will be returned to the undersigned.


 


Each
of the Company, and the undersigned acknowledges and agrees that CSTT is serving hereunder solely as a convenience to the parties to
facilitate the purchase of the Private Units and CSTT’s sole obligation under this letter agreement is to act with respect to holding
and disbursing the Private Unit Purchase Price as described above. CSTT shall not be liable to the Company, EF Hutton or the undersigned
or any other person or entity in respect of any act or failure to act hereunder or otherwise in connection with performing its services
hereunder unless CSTT has acted in a manner constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company and the undersigned shall
indemnify CSTT against any claim made against it (including reasonable attorney’s fees) by reason of it acting or failing to act
in connection with this letter agreement except as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. CSTT may rely and shall be
protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any written notice, instruction or request furnished to it hereunder and believed
by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.


 


The
Private Units and Over-Allotment Units will be identical to the units to be sold by the Company in the IPO. Additionally, the undersigned
agrees:

    to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would

    sold in the IPO if the Company does not complete an initial Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the IPO (or
    up to 18 months from the closing of the IPO if the Company extends the period of time to consummate an initial Business Combination
    in up to two three-month extension, as described in more detail in the prospectus included in the Registration Statement), unless
    the Company provides the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock sold in the IPO with the opportunity to redeem their shares of
    Class A Common Stock upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount of
    the Trust Fund, including interest earned on Trust Fund and not previously released to the Company to pay the Company’s franchise
    and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock sold in the IPO;

    Units in connection with a tender offer conducted prior to the closing of a Business Combination;

    of a Business Combination, in each case (except for clause vii) where the transferee agrees to the terms of the transfer restrictions;
    and
	 	 	 
	 	●	the
    Private Units and Over-Allotment Units will include any additional terms or restrictions as is customary in other similarly structured
