LOS ANGELES, Oct. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — On October 26, 2022, FF Top Holding LLC (“FF Top”), a Major Stockholder of Faraday Future, announced that it has agreed to amend its letter agreement regarding advanced approval with the Company, dated September 23, 2022, in order to accommodate an October 24, 2022 amendment, previously disclosed by FFIE, to the terms of the potential investment (“Investment”) of up to $60 million in the Company by Senyun International Ltd. (the Investor ) and thereby facilitate the Company’s closing of such financing.

FF Top is pleased that the Investor, introduced to the Company by FF Top, has made a deal with the Company.

FF Founder YT Jia and FF Global Partners are committed to maximizing the interests of Company shareholders, as evidenced by the substantial investments and efforts made by each in keeping the Company in operation over the past several years. In order to assist the Company’s efforts to close the additional financing contemplated by the Investment FF Top has made substantial concessions and sacrifices. Specifically, FF Top is suffering significant loss of economic benefits and voting power as a result of this investment and the Company’s recent financings.

In connection with the amendment to the letter agreement regarding advanced approval, FF Top and the Company have also reached an agreement to bring further positive and much-needed changes to the Company’s governance through the appointment of a fourth FF Top designee to the Board.

Specifically, the Company has agreed to appoint Mr. Chad Chen (or a substitute nominee, under certain limited circumstances) to the Board provided that Mr. Chen (or, as applicable, such substitute) is reasonably acceptable to the FFIE Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee with respect to Nasdaq independence rules and legal compliance and criminal compliance. Mr. Chen  is an experienced attorney with a diverse practice, representing national and multinational clients in both litigation and non-litigation matters. He has vast experience advising public companies and boards on important complex legal maters. In this capacity, Chad has represented clients in dealings with the US Treasury, Department of Commerce, US International Trade Commission, and various state and local tax authorities.

FF Top believes that the additional governance improvements noted above and funding of the entirety of the Investment, will, if completed, help position the Company to return to a track of sound development. FF Top looks forward to continuing to assist the Company with its financing efforts and thereby help position the Company to deliver the ultimate intelligent TechLuxury FF 91 Futurist to market.

FF Top is a subsidiary of FF Global Partners LLC (“FF Global Partners”). Founded by FF Founder and CPUO YT Jia, FF Global Partners is comprised of 24 partners and pre-partners who are former and current key employees of FFIE and is managed by the Partners Executive Committee. With the ultimate goal of realizing the shared dream and shared mission, all partners and pre-partners share entrepreneurship, share ownership, share returns, share risks, and share governance. This partnership model brings unique and unprecedented competitive advantages to the Company’s company culture, governance structure, and talent system and lays a solid foundation for the success of the Company.
