On January 20, 2023, Qing Ye notified Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (the "Company") of his resignation from the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board"), effective immediately. Mr. Ye's decision to resign was not the result of any disagreement between Mr. Ye and the Company. Mr. Ye will continue to serve as a consultant to the Company.

On January 25, 2023, upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board appointed Chui Tin Mok to serve as an executive Director, effective immediately.

Mr. Mok is a member of the board of managers of FF Global Partners LLC ("FF Global"), the parent company of FF Top LLC ("FF Top"), which is the Company's largest stockholder, and a member of FF Global's executive committee.

On January 20, 2023, in accordance with the Heads of Agreement, dated as of September 23, 2022, by and between the Company, FF Top and FF Global, as amended pursuant to the Amended Shareholder Agreement entered into by the Company and FF Top, dated July 21, 2021 and amended on January 13, 2023, the Selection Committee has approved the nomination of Mr. Mok for election to the Board in the Company's 2023 annual meeting of stockholders as one of FF Top's designees.

As previously disclosed by the Company in various filings with the SEC (most recently in the Company's registration statement on Form S-1, filed on December 23, 2022), Mr. Mok was one of the note purchasers party to the note purchase agreement (as amended, restated and otherwise modified from time to time, the "Note Purchase Agreement") entered into by FF Intelligent Mobility Global Holdings Ltd., an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands ("Legacy FF") (which was a party to the July 2021 business combination (the "Business Combination") with Property Solutions Acquisition Corp.

In May 2019, Legacy FF executed a joinder agreement to the Note Purchase Agreement with Chui Tin Mok for a convertible note payable with a total principal of $1.7 million (the "Tin Mok Note"). The note payable matured on May 31, 2020 and the interest rate, collateral, and covenants are the same as the Note Purchase Agreement. Pursuant thereto, upon certain events, Chui Tin Mok had the option to convert all of the outstanding principal and accrued interest of the note payable plus a 20% premium into shares of stock. At the closing of the Business Combination, the Company settled Tin Mok Note paying cash and converting the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest into shares of the Company's Class A common stock.

In August 2018, Mr. Mok took a $2.54 million loan from Ocean View Drive, Inc., an entity formerly controlled by Yueting Jia, the Company's founder and Chief Product and User Ecosystem Officer, and now wholly owned by the spouse of Ruokun Jia, the former Assistant Treasurer of the Company. The loan remains outstanding as of December 31, 2022.

In connection with his appointment to the Board, Mr. Mok is expected to enter into an indemnity agreement with the Company on the same terms as the indemnity agreements entered into by the directors and executive officers of the Company at the time of the Business Combination.
