 Item 4 Summary of Material Change 

The Company and BCP Innovation Pte. Ltd. (“BCPI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bangchak Corporation Public Company Ltd., completed
the closing of the investment agreement dated January 19, 2017 (as amended, the “Investment Agreement”). 
 Item 5 Full Description
of Material Change 
 The Company and BCPI completed the closing of the Investment Agreement. In connection with the closing of the
Investment Agreement, among other things: 
  

	 	(a)	 BCPI purchased 50,000,000 common shares of the Company (the “Common Shares”) at a price of C$0.85
per Common Share, which resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of C$42.5 million (US$33 million) (the “Private Placement”); and 

  

	 	(b)	 the parties executed: 

 

	 	(i)	 an amended and restated credit and guarantee agreement for an aggregate US$205 million credit facility
(the “Credit Facility”); 

  

	 	(ii)	 an off-take agreement for the purchase and sale of lithium products
(the “Offtake Agreement”); and 

  

	 	(iii)	 an investor rights agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”). 

Private Placement 
 Following the
closing of Private Placement, BCPI holds approximately 70,300,000 Common Shares, representing approximately 16.1% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. The Common Shares issued under the Private Placement are subject to a four month hold
period from the closing date. The proceeds of the Private Placement will be used to further advance the Company’s 50% owned Cauchari-Olaroz lithium project in Jujuy, Argentina (the “Cauchari Project”) and for general corporate and
working capital purposes. 
  

 Credit Facility 

Pursuant to the Credit Facility, GFL International Co., Ltd. (“Ganfeng”) and BCPI have agreed to provide an aggregate
US$205 million in loan financing, comprised of a US$125 million of commitment from Ganfeng and a US$80 million of commitment from BCPI. 

The Credit Facility has a six-year term, and carries an 8.0% interest rate for the first three years,
8.5% in year four, 9.0% in year five and 9.5% in year six. Funds will be released to Lithium Americas in instalments to cover Lithium Americas’ capital development contributions on the Cauchari Project, with Ganfeng and BCPI advancing 65% and
35%, respectively, of their commitments until Ganfeng has advanced its full commitment, at which point BCPI will be obligated to advance the balance of its commitment. For the first three years, there is no obligation to repay principal. Lithium
Americas is entitled to prepay the loan without penalty at any time after the first year. Each lender’s respective entitlement under their off-take agreement is conditional on its funding commitment under
the Credit Facility being available. The first drawdown is subject to the parties implementing security on assets of Lithium Americas and its subsidiaries (which excludes Lithium America’s Argentinean assets, including, but not limited to, its
interest in the Cauchari Project, and also excludes any equity interest in 2268566 Ontario Inc., but extends to substantially all other assets of Lithium Americas and its subsidiaries) and other customary conditions. 

Offtake Agreement 
 Pursuant to the
Offtake Agreement, BCPI has an off-take contract to purchase 20% of Lithium Americas’ share of the Stage 1 production from the Cauchari Project for a period of 20 years following the commencement of
commercial production. Pricing and payment terms under the Offtake Agreement are based on a quarterly determination of market price for lithium carbonate, as calculated by an independent third party. 

In connection with closing the Investment Agreement, the off-take agreement between Lithium Americas
and Ganfeng has been amended and restated to increase Ganfeng’s off-take entitlement from 70% to 80%. 

Investor Rights 
 Provided that
BCPI holds not less than 15% of the Common Shares, pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, BCPI has the following rights: 
  

	 	•	 	 the right to add a nominee to Lithium Americas’ board of directors; 

 

	 	•	 	 participation rights allowing it to maintain its equity ownership interest in Lithium Americas at 16.4% until
March 31, 2019; and 

  

	 	•	 	 a registration right for the sale of its Common Shares. 

Concurrent with closing, Lithium Americas appointed Chaiwat Kovavisarach, CEO of Bangchak Corporation Public Company Ltd., parent company of
BCPI, to the board of directors. 
 In connection with closing the Investment Agreement, the investor rights agreement between Lithium
Americas and Ganfeng has been amended and restated such that Ganfeng’s participation rights allow it to maintain its equity ownership interest in Lithium Americas at 17.5% (reduced from 19.9%).

 In connection with the planned U.S. listing, and as previously authorized by its shareholders, the Company also

2017. 
  

	5.	 Full Description of Material Change 

On November 3, 2017, the Company announced that it had applied to list its common shares on the NYSE American stock
exchange. In connection with the planned U.S. listing, and as previously authorized by its shareholders, the Company also announced the implementation of a share consolidation of its outstanding common shares. The Company’s board of directors
determined on November 2, 2017 that the consolidation would be effected on the basis of one new common share for every five currently outstanding common shares. The consolidation took effect on November 8, 2017 and the Company’s
common shares commenced trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange on a post-consolidation basis beginning at the open of markets on November 8, 2017. 

As at November 3, 2017, there were 442,281,126 common shares issued and outstanding, and upon completion of the
consolidation, there were 88,456,225 common shares of the Company issued and outstanding, subject to rounding for any fractional shares. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the share consolidation. Fractional interests of 0.5 or greater
were rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares and fractional 

 interests of less than 0.5 were rounded down to the nearest whole number of
common shares. 
 Registered shareholders holding share certificates have been mailed a letter of transmittal, advising of
the share consolidation and instructing them to surrender their share certificates representing pre-consolidation common shares for replacement certificates representing their post-consolidation common shares.
Until surrendered for exchange, following the effective date of the consolidation, each share certificate formerly representing pre-consolidation common shares will be deemed to represent the number of whole
post-consolidation common shares to which the holder is entitled as a result of the consolidation. 
 Holders of common
shares of the Company who hold uncertificated common shares (i.e., common shares held in book-entry form and not represented by a physical share certificate), either as registered holders or beneficial owners, will have their existing book-entry
account(s) electronically adjusted by the Company’s transfer agent or, for beneficial shareholders, by their brokerage firms, banks, trusts or other nominees that hold in “street name” for their benefit. Such holders do not need to
take any additional actions to exchange their pre-consolidation common shares for post-consolidation common shares. 

Beneficial shareholders holding their common shares through a bank, broker or other nominee should note that such banks,
brokers or other nominees may have different procedures for processing the consolidation than those that have been put in place by the Company for registered shareholders. 

The Company currently anticipates that, subject to the receipt of all required approvals, its common shares will begin trading
on the NYSE American stock exchange before the end of 2017. The listing of the Company’s common shares on the NYSE American stock exchange remains subject to the approval of that exchange and the satisfaction of all applicable listing
requirements. After completing a listing on the NYSE American stock exchange, the Company intends to apply to migrate its listing to the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) at such time as it satisfies applicable eligibility
requirements, and any such migration remains subject to the approval of the NYSE.
