Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


You

funds of EICF which may provide the Facility) and CCM Investments 5 LLC (“Chardan Commitment Party”
and collectively with EICF, the “Initial Commitment Parties”, “we” or “us”;
references to Chardan Commitment Party in this Commitment Letter shall include any controlled affiliate(s) of Chardan Commitment
Party which may provide the Facility) that Chardan NexTech Acquisition 2 Corp., a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation
and incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or

with Dragonfly Energy Corp., a Nevada corporation, (“Dragonfly” and collectively, with its subsidiaries or
controlled affiliates, the “Borrower” and collectively with CNTQ and its subsidiaries, the “Credit
Parties” or “you”). You have requested that EICF agree to commit to provide a portion of the
Facility and to serve as lead arranger and administrative agent for the Facility. You have requested that Chardan Commitment Party agree
to commit to provide a portion of the Facility. References herein to the “Transaction” shall include the financings described

have the meanings assigned to them in the exhibits attached hereto. References herein to this “Commitment Letter” mean this
commitment letter together with each of the exhibits attached hereto.


 


Commitments.


 


In
connection with the Transaction, the Initial Commitment Parties are pleased to commit to provide, on a several and not joint basis, to
Borrower $75,000,000 by way of a senior secured term loan facility (the “Facility”) on the terms set forth
in the Summary of Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Exhibit B and subject solely to the satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in Exhibit C hereto. In connection with the foregoing, the Initial Commitment Parties commit to provide
the percentage of the Facility set forth opposite their name under the column titled “Commitment Percentage” in the table
below.


 






     


     


    

 


	Commitment
    Party	Commitment
    Percentage
	EICF
    Agent LLC	40%
	Chardan
    Commitment Party 	60%


 


In the event that the Facility closes without
Chardan Commitment Party having assigned its obligations as an Initial Commitment Party to one or more assignees, then, for purposes
of all voting, consent and approval matters under this Commitment Letter or the Loan Documents, Chardan Commitment Party shall be disenfranchised
and have no such rights, subject to exceptions to be agreed and set forth in the Loan Documents.


 


Titles.


 


It
is agreed that EICF will act as the sole and exclusive administrative agent (“Agent”), and the lead arranger
and book manager (“Lead Arranger”), and in each such capacity, perform the duties and exercise the authority
customarily performed and exercised by it in such roles. You agree that no other agents, co-agents, underwriters or arrangers will be
appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than that expressly contemplated by this Commitment Letter and
the Fee Letter referred to below) will be paid in connection with the Facility unless you and the Initial Commitment Parties shall so
agree. The Lead Arranger and the Initial Commitment Parties intend to syndicate the Facility to a group of financial institutions (together
with EICF and Chardan Commitment Party, the “Lenders”) identified by us in consultation with you. EICF and
Chardan Commitment Party intend to commence syndication efforts promptly and you hereby authorize the Lead Arranger and Initial Commitment
Parties to commence syndication efforts immediately in consultation with you, and until ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, you
hereby agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to actively assist us in completing a syndication satisfactory to us and you. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Commitment Letter to the contrary, (a) no Initial Commitment Party shall be relieved or novated from
its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund the Facility on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment
or participation of the Facility, including its commitments in respect thereof, until after the Closing Date (except as set forth under
the “Miscellaneous” heading below with respect to the Chardan Assignment), (b) no assignment or novation shall become
effective with respect to all or any portion of any Initial Commitment Parties’ commitments in respect of the Facility until the
initial funding of the Facility on the Closing Date (except as set forth under the “Miscellaneous” heading below with respect
to the Chardan Assignment), (c) unless you and we agree in writing, the Initial Commitment Parties shall retain exclusive control
over all rights and obligations with respect to their commitments in respect of the Facility, including all rights with respect to consents,
modifications, supplements and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred (except as set forth under the “Miscellaneous”
heading below with respect to the Chardan Assignment), and (d) syndication of the Facility is not a condition to the availability
of the Facility. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the Closing Date, the Loan Documents shall permit assignments of the loans
and commitments by the Lenders to their controlled affiliates and related funds on customary terms to be agreed.

Information.


 


You hereby represent and
warrant that (with respect to Information and Projections relating to the Credit Parties and their subsidiaries, to your knowledge) (a) all
written information and written data, other than (x) the Projections (as defined below) and (y) information of a general economic
or industry specific nature (the “Information”), that has been or will be made available to us by you or, at
your direction, by any of your representatives on your behalf in connection with the Transactions, when taken as a whole, is or will
be, when furnished, correct in all material respects and does not or will not, when furnished, contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light
of the circumstances under which such statements are made (giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto) and (b) the Projections
will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by you to be reasonable at the time such Projections are so furnished;
it being understood that the Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, the Projections are subject to significant
uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, that no assurance can be given that any particular Projections
will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the
projected results and such differences may be material. You agree that, if at any time prior to the Closing Date, you become aware that
any of the representations and warranties in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and
the Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will promptly supplement prior
to the Closing Date the Information and such Projections such that (with respect to Information and Projections relating to the Credit
Parties, such representations and warranties are correct in all material respects under those circumstances; provided that any
such supplementation made prior to the Closing Date shall cure any breach of such representations and/or warranties. In arranging the
Facility, we will be entitled to use and rely primarily on the Information and the Projections without responsibility for independent
verification thereof. As used herein, “Projections” means customary forecasts of financial statements of the
Credit Parties (giving effect to the Transactions) for each month for the first twenty four months following the Closing Date and for
each year commencing with the first fiscal year following the Closing Date for the term of the Facility.


 


Fees.


 


As consideration for the
commitments of the Initial Commitment Parties hereunder and for the agreement of the Lead Arranger and the Initial Commitment Parties
to perform the services described herein, the Credit Parties agree to pay the nonrefundable fees set forth in this Commitment Letter
and in the Fee Letter dated the date hereof and delivered herewith (the “Fee Letter”).


 






    3


     


    

 


Conditions.


 


The commitments of the Initial
Commitment Parties hereunder to fund the Facility on the Closing Date and the agreements of the Lead Arranger and the Initial Commitment
Parties to perform the services described herein are subject solely to the conditions set forth in Exhibit C hereto, and
upon satisfaction (or waiver by the Initial Commitment Parties) of such conditions, the funding of the Facility shall occur; it being
understood that there are no other conditions (implied or otherwise) to the commitments hereunder.





 


Notwithstanding
anything in this Commitment Letter (including each of the exhibits attached hereto), the Fee Letter, the Loan Documents, or any other
letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, (a) the only representations
and warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the availability and funding of the Facility on the Closing Date shall be
(i) such of the representations and warranties made by or on behalf of the Credit Parties and their related parties in the Merger
Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that you (or any of your affiliates) have the right
to terminate your or any of their obligations under the Merger Agreement or to decline to consummate the Transactions as a result of
a breach of such representations or warranties in the Merger Agreement (to such extent, the “Specified Merger Agreement Representations”)
and (ii) the Specified Representations (as defined below) and (b) the terms of the Loan Documents shall be in a form such that
they do not impair the availability or funding of the Facility on the Closing Date if the conditions set forth in Exhibit C
hereto are satisfied (it being understood that to the extent any security interest in any Collateral (as defined in Exhibit D)
(other than to the extent that a security interest in such Collateral may be perfected by (x) the filing of a financing statement
under the Uniform Commercial Code, (y) taking delivery and possession of certificated equity interests of the Borrower and any domestic
subsidiaries of the Borrower pledged under the Loan Documents and (z) the filing of short form intellectual property filings with
the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office) is not or cannot be provided or perfected on the
Closing Date after Borrower’s use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so, then the perfection and/or provision of a security
interest in such Collateral shall not constitute a condition precedent to the availability of the Facility on the Closing Date but instead
shall be required to be delivered after the Closing Date within forty-five (45) days. For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations”
means the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties set forth in the Loan Documents relating to organizational existence of
the Credit Parties; good standing and qualification of the Credit Parties; power and authority of the Credit Parties as to execution,
delivery and performance of the Loan Documents; due authorization, execution and delivery of the Credit Parties and enforceability against
the Credit Parties, in each case, with respect to the Loan Documents; the absence of any third-party litigation or other proceeding enjoining
the entry into or performance of the Loan Documents; no conflicts with material applicable law and no conflicts with, or consent
under, organizational documents of the Credit Parties related to the entering into and the performance of the Loan Documents and the
incurrence of the extensions of credit thereunder; solvency as of the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Transactions) of Guarantor
and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (in form and scope consistent with the solvency certificate in the form attached as Exhibit E
hereto); status of the Facility as senior debt; Federal Reserve margin regulations; the use of loan proceeds not violating the PATRIOT
Act; the Investment Company Act; use of loan proceeds not violating OFAC and other anti-terrorism laws; use of loan proceeds not violating
FCPA; certain SBA representations and warranties and delivery of SBA Documents described in Exhibit B; assets and holding
company only status of CNTQ; and, subject to the limitations set forth in clause (b) above and liens permitted under the Loan
Documents, creation, validity and perfection of security interests in the Collateral. This paragraph, and the provisions herein, shall
be referred to as the “Certain Funds Provisions”.


 






    4


     


    

 


For the avoidance of doubt,
neither compliance by you and/or your affiliates with the terms and conditions of this Commitment Letter (other than the conditions set
forth in Exhibit C hereto) nor the syndication of the Facility is a condition to either Initial Commitment Party’s
several commitment to fund the Facility in the amounts described above or the obligations of the Lead Arranger and the Initial Commitment
Parties hereunder, in each case, on the terms set forth herein. Without limiting the Certain Funds Provisions, the Lead Arranger and
the Initial Commitment Parties will cooperate with you as reasonably requested in coordinating the timing and procedures for the funding
of the Facility in a manner consistent with the Merger Agreement; provided, however, in no event shall the Initial Commitment
Parties be required to fund the Facility after the Expiration Date.


 


 Indemnity.




 


To induce us to enter into
this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter and to proceed with the documentation of the Facility, you agree, jointly and severally, whether
or not the Facility Closes, (a) to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Commitment Party, its affiliates and the respective
officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives and the successors and assigns of each of the foregoing (each,
an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of any kind
or nature and reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses, joint or several, to which any such Indemnified
Person may become subject to the extent arising out of, resulting from or in connection with, this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter,
the Transactions or any related transaction contemplated hereby, the Facility or any use of the proceeds thereof or any claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) relating to any of the foregoing (any of the foregoing, a “Proceeding”),
regardless of whether any such Indemnified Person is a party thereto, whether or not such Proceedings are brought by you, your equity
holders, affiliates, creditors or any other third person, and to reimburse each such Indemnified Person upon demand for any reasonable
and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket legal expenses of one firm of counsel for all such Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole, if
necessary, one specialty intellectual property counsel, and, if necessary, a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which
may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all such Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole, and, solely
in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each applicable jurisdiction to the affected Indemnified Persons) or
other reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any
of the foregoing; provided that the foregoing indemnity will not (i) (x) apply to any losses, claims, damages and liabilities
that do not involve an act or omission by you or any of your affiliates and (y) arise from a dispute among the Indemnified Persons
(other than in connection with any Initial Commitment Party acting in its capacity as Lead Arranger, an Agent or any other agent or co-agent
(if any) designated by the Lead Arranger, in each case in their respective capacities as such), or (ii) as to any Indemnified Person,
apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent that they have resulted from the gross negligence, bad
faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or any of such Indemnified Person’s controlled affiliates (as determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment) and (b) to reimburse us on the Closing Date and from
time to time, upon presentation of a summary statement, for all expenses (including due diligence expenses, syndication expenses, consultant’s
fees and expenses, travel expenses, and its fees, charges and disbursements of counsel (limited to one firm of counsel for each of the
Initial Commitment Parties; one specialty intellectual property counsel to the Initial Commitment Parties; if necessary, one counsel
for a third party administrative agent; if necessary, a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single
special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions), in each case, incurred in connection with (i) the Loan Documents and (ii) the
preparation, administration, amendment, modification or waiver, negotiation and enforcement of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter,
the Loan Documents and any security arrangements in connection therewith (collectively, the “Expenses”).

Sharing
of Information, Absence of Fiduciary Relationships, Affiliate Activities.


 


You acknowledge that the
Initial Commitment Parties and their affiliates (the term “Initial Commitment Parties” as used below in this paragraph being
understood to include such affiliates) may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory
services) to other companies in respect of which you may have conflicting interests regarding the Facility, the Transactions and otherwise.
You also acknowledge that the Initial Commitment Parties have no obligation to use in connection with the Facility, the Transaction,
or to furnish to you, confidential information obtained from other companies.


 


You acknowledge that neither
this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, nor any other proposed transaction shall give rise to any fiduciary duty or exclusive relationship
on the part of the Initial Commitment Parties or any lender or any of their respective affiliates and that they may continue to conduct
their respective businesses in the ordinary course.


 


Miscellaneous.


 


This
Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter shall not be assignable by any party hereto (other than by each Initial Commitment Party to its
respective controlled affiliates or affiliates under common control with the applicable Initial Commitment Party engaged in making, purchasing,
holding or investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course upon written notice to you and upon
the execution by such affiliate of customary joinder documentation to this Commitment Letter) without the prior written consent of the
other parties hereto (and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void), are intended to be solely for the benefit
of the parties hereto and are not intended to confer any benefits upon, or create any rights in favor of, any person other than the parties
hereto and the Indemnified Persons. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter shall
be assignable by Chardan Commitment Party (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not any assignee of Chardan Commitment Letter) to other financing
sources reasonably acceptable to the Lead Arranger (it being agreed that BP Holdings XVII LP (or any affiliate, fund, account, or lending
vehicle managed or advised by Beach Point Capital Management LP) is a financing source reasonably acceptable to the Lead Arranger) upon
written notice to you and upon the execution by such financing source of customary joinder documentation to this Commitment Letter (the
 “Chardan Assignment”).  Upon effectiveness of any such assignment, all references hereunder to Chardan
Commitment Party will automatically and without the necessity of further action be deemed to refer to such other financing sources.
This Commitment Letter may not be amended or waived except by an instrument in writing signed by you and the Initial Commitment Parties.


 






    6


     


    

 


In no event shall any Credit
Party, the Agent, Lead Arranger, Initial Commitment Parties or Lenders be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential
damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) in connection with this Commitment Letter,
the Fee Letter, the Transactions (including the Facility and the use of proceeds thereunder), or with respect to any activities related
to the Facility, including the preparation of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter and the Loan Documents; provided, that, nothing
contained in this sentence shall limit the indemnification and reimbursement obligations of any Credit Party to the extent expressly
set forth herein.


 


Each Initial Commitment Party
acknowledges that, as described in the final prospectus relating to CNTQ’s initial public offering (the “IPO”)
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 10, 2021 (the “Prospectus”), CNTQ has established
a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of the IPO and the overallotment securities acquired
by its underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to
time thereon) for the benefit of CNTQ’s public stockholders (including overallotment shares acquired by CNTQ’s underwriters),
and that, except as otherwise described in the Prospectus, CNTQ may disburse monies from the Trust Account only upon certain conditions.
Each Initial Commitment Party hereby agrees that in connection with such Initial Commitment Party’s commitment under this Commitment
Letter, no Indemnified Person shall seek to enforce any right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (a “Claim”)
in or to any monies in the Trust Account prior to the consummation of CNTQ’s initial business combination.  In the event that
an Indemnified Person has any Claim against CNTQ under this Commitment Letter such Indemnified Person shall pursue such Claim solely
against CNTQ and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the Trust Account or any monies or other assets in the Trust Account
prior to the consummation of CNTQ’s initial business combination.  CNTQ hereby agrees that any such Claim any Indemnified
Person may have arising at any time prior to the consummation of its initial business combination is not waived or released pursuant
to this paragraph but may be preserved and initiated against CNTQ at any time after its initial business combination and, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude any claims by any Indemnified Person against (x) CNTQ
or any of the CNTQ’s affiliates seeking recourse against any assets of CNTQ other than the Trust Account or the contents thereof
or (y) assets released from the Trust Account upon the consummation of the CNTQ’s initial business combination to parties
other than CNTQ’s public stockholders in connection with their redemption rights pursuant to the CNTQ’s certificate of incorporation
as currently in effect.


 


This Commitment Letter may
be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute
one agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Commitment Letter by facsimile transmission shall be effective as
a delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. This Commitment Letter together with the Fee Letter are the only agreements that
have been entered into among the Credit Parties and the Initial Commitment Parties with respect to the Facility and set forth the entire
understanding of the parties with respect thereto. THIS COMMITMENT LETTER MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED
PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT UNDERSTANDINGS OR AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES, WRITTEN OR ORAL, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OTHER THAN A WRITING
EXECUTED BY THE PARTIES HERETO WHICH EXPRESSLY AMENDS OR SUPERSEDES THIS COMMITMENT LETTER. ALL OTHER WRITINGS ISSUED BY THE INITIAL
COMMITMENT PARTIES TO YOU PRIOR TO THE DATE HEREOF WITH RESPECT TO THE FACILITY, ARE NULL AND VOID AND OF NO EFFECT. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN
ORAL UNDERSTANDINGS OR AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

THIS COMMITMENT LETTER SHALL
BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.


 


WITH RESPECT TO THIS COMMITMENT
LETTER, THE FEE LETTER, ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ANY ACT OR OMISSION
COMMITTED OR OMITTED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, THE INITIAL COMMITMENT PARTIES AND THE BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY (A) WAIVE ANY RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION PERTAINING THERETO OR ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, WHETHER SOUNDING
IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, (B) CONSENT AND AGREE THAT THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK
OR ANY STATE COURTS SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY, SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN
OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES PERTAINING TO OR ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, PROVIDED, THAT THE INITIAL COMMITMENT PARTIES AND THE CREDIT
PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF SUCH JURISDICTION, (C) CONSENT
TO SUCH JURISDICTION FOR ANY ACTION COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND (D) WAIVE ANY OBJECTIONS BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER
VENUE OR INCONVENIENT FORUM.


 


The Initial Commitment Parties
hereby notify you that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26,
2001) the “PATRIOT Act”), the Initial Commitment Parties and each other lender may be required to obtain, verify
and record information that identifies the Credit Parties, which information includes the name, address, tax identification number and
other information regarding the Credit Parties that will allow the Initial Commitment Parties and any such lender to identify the Credit
Parties in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the PATRIOT Act and is effective
as to the Initial Commitment Parties and each such other lender.

If the foregoing correctly
sets forth our agreement, please indicate your acceptance of the terms hereof and the Fee Letter by returning to us executed counterparts
hereof and of the Fee Letter, together with the amounts agreed upon pursuant to the Fee Letter to be payable upon the acceptance hereof,

on May 16, 2022 (time being of the essence as to all time periods specified herein), unless previously accepted by you in the manner
described above. If this Commitment Letter is accepted but the Closing Date shall not have occurred by October 31, 2022, or such
later date reasonably acceptable to the Initial Commitment Parties, all commitments hereunder will expire and neither Commitment Party
will have any liability or further obligation for such commitments. In the event that (i) the Merger Agreement is terminated without
the consummation of the Combination having occurred or (ii) the closing of the Combination occurs without the use of the Facility,
then this Commitment Letter and the Initial Commitment Parties’ commitments hereunder shall automatically terminate without further
action or notice and without further obligation to you unless we shall, in our sole discretion, agree to an extension. The compensation,
reimbursement, indemnification, trust account waiver, Fee Letter, absence of fiduciary duty, jurisdiction, governing law, venue and waiver
of jury trial provisions contained herein shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination
