 AMENDED AND RESTATED PROMISSORY NOTE

 March 15, 2022 
 Principal Amount:
Up to $5,000,000.00 
 TLG Acquisition One Corp., a Delaware corporation and blank check company (the “Maker”), promises to pay to the
order of TLG Acquisition Founder LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or its registered assigns or successors in interest (the “Payee”), the principal sum of up to five million dollars ($5,000,000.00) in lawful money of the
United States of America, on the terms and conditions described below. This Note amends, restates and supersedes in its entirety that certain Promissory Note, dated March 25, 2021 (the “Original Note”), made by the Maker in
favor of the Payee, in the aggregate principal amount of two million dollars ($2,000,000). From and after the execution and delivery of this Note, (i) the indebtedness heretofore evidenced by the Original Note shall instead by evidenced
by this Note, (ii) all obligations outstanding under the Original Note shall remain outstanding under this Note, without duplication, and nothing herein shall constitute a novation of the Maker’s obligations under the Original Note and
(iii) the Original Note is hereby no longer in force and effect. All payments on this Note shall be made by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds or as otherwise determined by the Maker to such account as the Payee may from time
to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Note. 
 1. Principal. The principal balance of this Note shall be
payable by the Maker on the earlier of: (i) the date on which Maker consummates its initial business combination (the “Business Combination”) or (ii) the date that the winding up of the Maker is effective (such date, the
“Maturity Date”). The principal balance may be prepaid at any time, at the election of Maker, without premium or penalty. Under no circumstances shall any individual, including but not limited to any executive officer, director,
employee or stockholder of the Maker, be obligated personally for any obligations or liabilities of the Maker hereunder. 
 2. Interest. No interest
shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note. 
 3. Drawdown Requests. Maker and Payee agree that Maker may request up to five million
dollars ($5,000,000.00) for costs reasonably related to Maker’s working capital needs. The principal of this Note may be drawn down from time to time prior to the earlier of the Business Combination and the Maturity Date, upon written request
from Maker to Payee (each, a “Drawdown Request”). Each Drawdown Request must state the amount to be drawn down, and must not be an amount less than ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) unless agreed upon my Maker and Payee. Payee shall
fund each Drawdown Request no later than five (5) business days after receipt of a Drawdown Request; provided, however, that (i) the maximum amount of drawdowns collectively under this note is five million dollars ($5,000,000.00).
Once an amount is drawn down under this Note, it shall not be available for future Drawdown Requests even if prepaid. No fees, payments or other amounts shall be due to Payee in connection with, or as a result of, any Drawdown Request by Maker.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all payments shall be applied in accordance with Section 5 hereof. 
 4. Optional Conversion. 

(a) Upon consummation of the Business Combination and at the Payee’s option, the Payee may elect, by written notice to the Maker, to convert up to one
million five hundred thousand dollars ($1,500,000.00) of the Note into that number of warrants (the “Conversion Warrants”) to purchase a number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, of the Maker equal to: (i) the
portion of the principal amount of the Note being converted pursuant to this Section 4, divided by (ii) $1.50. The Conversion Warrants shall be identical to the warrants issued by the Maker to Payee, in a private placement upon the consummation
of Maker’s initial public offering (the “IPO”). The Conversion Warrants and their underlying securities, and any other equity security of Maker issued or issuable with respect to the foregoing by way of a share dividend or
share split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, amalgamation, consolidation or reorganization, shall be entitled to registration rights on the same terms as the registration rights set forth in that certain Registration
Rights Agreement, dated as of January 27, 2021, by and among the Maker, the Payee and the other parties thereto. 











 (b) Upon any complete or partial conversion of the principal amount of this Note (i) such principal
amount shall be so converted and such converted portion of this Note shall become fully paid and satisfied, (ii) the Payee shall surrender and deliver this Note, duly endorsed, to Maker or such other address which Maker shall designate against
delivery of the Conversion Warrants, (iii) Maker shall promptly deliver a new duly executed Note to the Payee in the principal amount that remains outstanding, if any, after any such conversion and (iv) in exchange for all or any portion
of the surrendered Note described in Section 4(a), Maker shall, at the direction of Payee, deliver to Payee (or its members or their respective affiliates) (Payee or such other persons, the “Holders”) the Conversion Warrants,
which shall bear such legends as are required, in the opinion of counsel to Maker or by any other agreement between Maker and the Payee and applicable state and federal securities laws. 

(c) The Holders shall pay any and all issue and other taxes that may be payable with respect to any issue or delivery of the Conversion Warrants upon
conversion of this Note pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the Payee shall pay any transfer taxes resulting from any transfer requested by the Holders in connection with any such conversion. 

(d) The Conversion Warrants shall not be issued upon conversion of this Note unless such issuance and such conversion comply with all applicable provisions of
law. 
 5. Application of Payments. All payments shall be applied first to payment in full of any costs incurred in the collection of any sum due
