EXCHANGE AGREEMENT

 

This Exchange Agreement
(this “Agreement”) is entered into as of February 20, 2020 by and between Atlas Sciences, LLC, a Utah limited
liability company (“Lender”), and CBAK Energy Technology, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Borrower”).
Capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition shall have the meanings given to them in the Original Note (as defined
below).

 

A. Borrower previously
sold and issued to Lender that certain Promissory Note dated July 24, 2019 in the original principal amount of $1,395,000.00 (the
“Original Note”) pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 24, 2019 by and between Lender
and Borrower (the “Purchase Agreement,” and together with the Original Note and all other documents entered
into in conjunction therewith, the “Transaction Documents”).

 

B. Subject to
the terms of this Agreement, Borrower and Lender desire to partition a new Promissory Note in the original principal amount of
$100,000.00 substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Partitioned Note”) from
the Original Note and then cause the outstanding balance of the Original Note to be reduced by an amount equal to the initial outstanding
balance of the Partitioned Note.

 

C. Borrower and
Lender further desire to exchange (such exchange is referred to as the “Note Exchange”) the Partitioned Note
for 207,641 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”, and such 207,641
shares of Common Stock, the “Exchange Shares”), according to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

D. The Note Exchange
will consist of Lender surrendering the Partitioned Note in exchange for the Exchange Shares, which will be issued free of any
restrictive securities legend.

 

E. Other than
the surrender of the Partitioned Note, no consideration of any kind whatsoever shall be given by Lender to Borrower in connection
with this Agreement.

 

F. Lender and
Borrower now desire to exchange the Partitioned Note for the Exchange Shares on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

 

1. Recitals
and Definitions. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the recitals set forth above in this Agreement are
true and accurate, are contractual in nature, and are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement.

 

2. Partition.
Effective as of the date hereof, Borrower and Lender agree that the Partitioned Note is hereby partitioned from the Original Note.
Following such partition of the Original Note, Borrower and Lender agree that the Original Note shall remain in full force and
effect, provided that the outstanding balance of the Original Note shall be reduced by an amount equal to the initial outstanding
balance of the Partitioned Note.

 

     

     

    

 

3. Issuance
of Shares. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Exchange Shares shall be delivered to Lender on or before
February 25, 2020 and the Note Exchange shall occur with Lender surrendering the Partitioned Note to Borrower on the Free Trading
Date (as defined below). On the Free Trading Date, the Partitioned Note shall be cancelled and all obligations of Borrower under
the Partitioned Note shall be deemed fulfilled and Lender shall thereby release, waive, discharge and relinquish any and all rights,
claims, demands, contentions and causes of action of every kind, nature, character and description whatsoever, whether known or
unknown, suspected or unsuspected, apparent or concealed, fixed or contingent, arising from the Partitioned Note. All Exchange
Shares delivered hereunder shall be delivered via DWAC to Lender’s designated brokerage account. Borrower agrees to provide
all necessary cooperation or assistance that may be required to cause all Exchange Shares delivered hereunder to become Free Trading
(the first date on which all Exchange Shares become Free Trading, the “Free Trading Date”). For purposes hereof,
the term “Free Trading” means that (a) the Exchange Shares have been cleared and approved for public resale
by the compliance departments of Lender’s brokerage firm and the clearing firm servicing such brokerage, and (b) such shares
are held in the name of the clearing firm servicing Lender’s brokerage firm and have been deposited into such clearing firm’s
account for the benefit of Lender.

 

4. Closing.
The closing of the transaction contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) along with the delivery of the Exchange Shares
to Lender shall occur on the date that is mutually agreed to by Borrower and Lender by means of the exchange by email of .pdf documents,
but shall be deemed to have occurred at the offices of Hansen Black Anderson Ashcraft PLLC in Lehi, Utah.

 

5. Holding
Period, Tacking and Legal Opinion. Borrower represents, warrants and agrees that for the purposes of Rule 144 (“Rule
144”) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the holding period of the
Partitioned Note and the Exchange Shares will include Lender’s holding period of the Original Note from July 24, 2019. Borrower
agrees not to take a position contrary to this Section 5 in any document, statement, setting, or situation. Borrower agrees to
take all action necessary to issue the Exchange Shares without restriction, and not containing any restrictive legend without the
need for any action by Lender; provided that the applicable holding period has been met. In furtherance thereof, prior to the Closing,
counsel to Lender may, in its sole discretion, provide an opinion that: (a) the Exchange Shares may be resold pursuant to Rule
144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions; and (b) the transactions contemplated hereby and all other documents associated
with this transaction comport with the requirements of Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. Borrower represents that it is in
full compliance with the tests and standards set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) as of the date of this Agreement. The Exchange Shares
are being issued in substitution of and exchange for and not in satisfaction of the Partitioned Note. The Exchange Shares shall
not constitute a novation or satisfaction and accord of the Partitioned Note. Borrower acknowledges and understands that the representations
and agreements of Borrower in this Section 5 are a material inducement to Lender’s decision to consummate the transactions
contemplated herein.

10. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signing parties had signed the same
document. All counterparts shall be construed together and constitute the same instrument. The exchange of copies of this Agreement

and expenses  paid by such prevailing party in connection with the arbitration, litigation and/or dispute without reduction
or apportionment based upon the individual claims or defenses  giving rise to the fees and expenses. The “prevailing
party” shall be the party in whose favor a judgment is entered, regardless of whether judgment is entered on all claims asserted
by such party and regardless of the amount of the judgment; or where, due to the assertion of counterclaims, judgments are entered
in favor of and against both parties, then the arbitrator shall determine the “prevailing party” by taking into account
the relative dollar amounts of the judgments or, if the judgments involve nonmonetary relief, the relative importance and value
of such relief. Nothing herein shall restrict or impair an arbitrator’s or a court’s power to award fees and expenses
for frivolous or bad faith pleading.

 

12. No Reliance.
Borrower acknowledges and agrees that neither Lender nor any of its officers, directors, members, managers, equity holders, representatives
or agents has made any representations or warranties to Borrower or any of its agents, representatives, officers, directors, or
employees except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and, in making its decision to enter into

Lender or its officers, directors, members, managers, equity holders, agents or representatives other than as set forth in this
Agreement.

 

13. Severability.
If any part of this Agreement is construed to be in violation of any law, such part shall be modified to achieve the objective
of the parties to the fullest extent permitted and the balance of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

 

14. Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Transaction Documents, and all other documents referred to herein, supersedes
all other prior oral or written agreements between Borrower, Lender, its affiliates and persons acting on its behalf with respect
to the matters discussed herein, and this Agreement and the instruments referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the
parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither

may be waived except in writing signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced.

 

    4

     

    

 

16. Successors
and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and
assigns. This Agreement or any of the severable rights and obligations inuring to the benefit of or to be performed by Lender hereunder
may be assigned by Lender to a third party, including its financing sources, in whole or in part. Borrower may not assign this
Agreement or any of its obligations herein without the prior written consent of Lender.

 

17. Continuing
Enforceability; Conflict Between Documents. Except as otherwise modified by this Agreement, the Original Note and each of the
other Transaction Documents shall remain in full force and effect, enforceable in accordance with all of its original terms and
provisions. This Agreement shall not be effective or binding unless and until it is fully executed and delivered by Lender and

PARTITIONED PROMISSORY NOTE
#2

 

	Original Issue Date: July 24, 2019 	U.S. $100,000.00

 

This Partitioned Promissory
Note #2 (this “Note”) is issued and made effective as of February 20, 2020 (the “Effective Date”).
This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Exchange Agreement dated February 20, 2020, as the same may be amended from time to
time, by and between CBAK Energy Technology, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Borrower”) and Atlas Sciences, LLC,
a Utah limited liability company, or its successors or assigns (“Lender”) (the “Exchange Agreement”)
pursuant to which Borrower and Lender agreed to, among other things, partition this Note from that certain Promissory Note in the
original principal amount of $1,395,000.00 issued July 24, 2019 by Borrower in favor of Lender (the “Original Note”).
The Original Note was issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 24, 2019, as the same may be amended
from time to time, by and between Borrower and Lender (the “Purchase Agreement”). Certain capitalized terms
used herein are defined in Attachment 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

 

The purchase price
for the Original Note was paid on July 25, 2019. Accordingly, the purchase price for this Note (the “Purchase Price”)
is deemed to have been paid in full as of such date.

 

1. Payment;
Prepayment.

 

1.1. Payment.
All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money of the United States of America and delivered to Lender at the address or
bank account furnished to Borrower for that purpose. All payments shall be applied first to (a) costs of collection, if any, then
to (b) fees and charges, if any, then to (c) accrued and unpaid interest, and thereafter, to (d) principal.

 

1.2. Prepayment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or any portion of the Outstanding Balance. If Borrower
exercises its right to prepay this Note, Borrower shall make payment to Lender of an amount in cash equal to 125% multiplied by
the portion of the Outstanding Balance Borrower elects to repay.

 

2. Security.
This Note is unsecured.

 

     

     

    

 

3. Redemption.
Beginning on the date that is six (6) months after the Purchase Price Date, Lender shall have the right, exercisable at any time
in its sole and absolute discretion, to redeem any amount of the Original Note up to $250,000.00 (such amount, the “Redemption
Amount”) per calendar month by providing written notice to Borrower (each, a “Redemption Notice”).
For the avoidance of doubt, Lender may submit to Borrower one (1) or more Redemption Notices in any given calendar month so long
as the aggregate amount being redeemed in such month does not exceed $250,000.00. The Redemption Amount must be at least $50,000.00
unless the Outstanding Balance of the Original Note is less than $50,000.00. Upon receipt of any Redemption Notice, Borrower shall
pay the applicable Redemption Amount in cash to Lender within three (3) Trading Days of Borrower’s receipt of such Redemption
Notice.

 

4. Defaults
and Remedies.

 

4.1. Defaults.
The following are events of default under the Original Note (each, an “Event of Default”): (a) Borrower fails
to pay any principal, interest, fees, charges, or any other amount when due and payable hereunder; (b) a receiver, trustee or other
similar official shall be appointed over Borrower or a material part of its assets and such appointment shall remain uncontested
for twenty (20) days or shall not be dismissed or discharged within sixty (60) days; (c) Borrower becomes insolvent or generally
fails to pay, or admits in writing its inability to pay, its debts as they become due, subject to applicable grace periods, if
any; (d) Borrower makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (e) Borrower files a petition for relief under any bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law (domestic or foreign); (f) an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding is commenced or filed against Borrower;
(g) Borrower or any pledgor, trustor, or guarantor of the Original Note defaults or otherwise fails to observe or perform any covenant,
obligation, condition or agreement of Borrower or such pledgor, trustor, or guarantor contained herein or in any other Transaction
Document (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), other than those specifically set forth in this Section 4.1 and Section 4 of the
Purchase Agreement; (h) any representation, warranty or other statement made or furnished by or on behalf of Borrower or any pledgor,
trustor, or guarantor of the Original Note to Lender herein, in any Transaction Document, or otherwise in connection with the issuance
of the Original Note is false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect when made or furnished; (i) the occurrence
of a Fundamental Transaction without Lender’s prior written consent; (j) Borrower effectuates a reverse split of its Common
Stock without twenty (20) Trading Days prior written notice to Lender; (k) any United States money judgment, writ or similar process
is entered or filed against Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower or any of its property or other assets for more than $1,000,000.00,
and shall remain unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of twenty (20) calendar days unless otherwise consented to by Lender;
(l) Borrower fails to be DWAC Eligible at any time after the six (6) month anniversary of the Purchase Price Date; (m) Borrower
fails to observe or perform any covenant set forth in Section 4 of the Purchase Agreement (other than the covenant with respect
to Unapproved Restricted Issuances); (n) Borrower makes any Unapproved Restricted Issuance; or (o) Borrower, any affiliate of Borrower,
or any pledgor, trustor, or guarantor of the Original Note breaches any covenant or other term or condition contained in any Other
Agreements (after giving effect to any grace periods therein or any waivers). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the occurrence of
any event specified in Section 4.1(g) – (o) shall not be considered an Event of Default hereunder if such event is cured
within ten (10) days of the occurrence of such event.

 

    9

     

    

 

4.2. Remedies.
At any time and from time to time after Lender becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may accelerate the
Original Note by written notice to Borrower, with the Outstanding Balance becoming immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory
Default Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may, at its
option, elect to increase the Outstanding Balance by applying the Default Effect (subject to the limitation set forth below) via
written notice to Borrower without accelerating the Outstanding Balance, in which event the Outstanding Balance shall be increased
as of the date of the occurrence of the applicable Event of Default pursuant to the Default Effect, but the Outstanding Balance
shall not be immediately due and payable unless so declared by Lender (for the avoidance of doubt, if Lender elects to apply the
Default Effect pursuant to this sentence, it shall reserve the right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable
at any time and no such election by Lender shall be deemed to be a waiver of its right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately
due and payable as set forth herein unless otherwise agreed to by Lender in writing). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence
of any Event of Default described in clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) of Section 4.1, the Outstanding Balance as of the date of
acceleration shall become immediately and automatically due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount, without any written
notice required by Lender. At any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, upon written notice given by Lender to
Borrower, interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Balance beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred at an
interest rate equal to the lesser of twenty-two percent (22%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law (“Default
Interest”). In connection with acceleration described herein, Lender need not provide, and Borrower hereby waives, any
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and Lender may immediately and without expiration of any grace period
enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration
may be rescinded and annulled by Lender at any time prior to payment hereunder and Lender shall have all rights as a holder of
the Note until such time, if any, as Lender receives full payment pursuant to this Section 4.2. No such rescission or annulment
shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit Lender’s
right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance
and/or injunctive relief.

 

5. Unconditional
Obligation; No Offset. Borrower acknowledges that this Note is an unconditional, valid, binding and enforceable obligation
of Borrower not subject to offset, deduction or counterclaim of any kind. Borrower hereby waives any rights of offset it now has
or may have hereafter against Lender, its successors and assigns, and agrees to make the payments called for herein in accordance
with the terms of this Note.

 

6. Waiver.
No waiver of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting the
waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent
to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or
commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.

 

7. Approved
Restricted Issuance. The Outstanding Balance will automatically be increased by three percent (3%) for each Approved Restricted
Issuance made by Borrower (without the need for Lender to provide any notice to Borrower of such increase), which increase will
be effective as of the date of each applicable Approved Restricted Issuance.

 

8. Opinion
of Counsel. In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter related to this Note, Lender has the right to
have any such opinion provided by its counsel.

 

9. Governing
Law; Venue. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity,
interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Utah, without giving effect
to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Utah or any other jurisdiction) that would cause
the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Utah. The provisions set forth in the Purchase Agreement
to determine the proper venue for any disputes are incorporated herein by this reference.

 

    10

     

    

 

10. Arbitration
of Disputes. By its issuance or acceptance of this Note, each party agrees to be bound by the Arbitration Provisions (as defined
in the Purchase Agreement) set forth as an exhibit to the Purchase Agreement.

 

11. Cancellation.
After repayment of the entire Outstanding Balance, this Note shall be deemed paid in full, shall automatically be deemed canceled,
and shall not be reissued.

 

12. Amendments.
The prior written consent of both parties hereto shall be required for any change or amendment to this Note.

 

13. Assignments.
Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of Lender. This Note may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred
by Lender without the consent of Borrower, so long as such transfer is in accordance with applicable federal and state securities
laws.

 

14. Notices.
Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance
with the subsection of the Purchase Agreement titled “Notices.”

 

15. Liquidated
Damages. Lender and Borrower agree that in the event Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms or provisions of this Note,
Lender’s damages would be uncertain and difficult (if not impossible) to accurately estimate because of the parties’
inability to predict future interest rates, future share prices, future trading volumes and other relevant factors. Accordingly,
Lender and Borrower agree that any fees, balance adjustments, Default Interest or other charges assessed under this Note are not
penalties but instead are intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, liquidated damages.

 

16. Severability.
If any part of this Note is construed to be in violation of any law, such part shall be modified to achieve the objective of Borrower
and Lender to the fullest extent permitted by law and the balance of this Note shall remain in full force and effect.
