This official website is maintained by the Claims Administrator under the supervision of Lead Counsel for the members of the Settlement Class in the class action lawsuit entitled In re XL Fleet Corp. Securities Litigation, Case No. 1:21-cv-02002-JLR (the “Action”), which is pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

PROOF OF CLAIM AND RELEASE FORM

I. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. It is important that you completely read and understand the Notice of (I) Pendency of Class Action, Certification of Settlement Class, and Proposed Settlement; (II) Settlement Fairness Hearing; and (III) Motion for an Award of Attorneys’ Fees and Reimbursement of Litigation Expenses (the “Settlement Notice”) that accompanies this Claim Form, including the Plan of Allocation of the Net Settlement Fund set forth in the Settlement Notice. The Settlement Notice describes the proposed Settlement, how Settlement Class Members are affected by the Settlement, and the manner in which the Net Settlement Fund will be distributed if the Settlement and Plan of Allocation are approved by the Court. The Settlement Notice also contains the definitions of many of the defined terms (which are indicated by initial capital letters) used in this Claim Form. By signing and submitting this Claim Form, you will be certifying that you have read and that you understand the Settlement Notice, including the terms of the Releases described in the Settlement Notice and provided for in this Claim Form.

2. This Claim Form is directed to all persons and entities that, during the period between September 18, 2020 and March 31, 2021, both dates inclusive (the “Settlement Class Period”), you purchased or otherwise acquired the publicly traded common stock, units, and/or warrants of XL Fleet Corp. (“XL Fleet”) or Pivotal Investment Corporation II (“Pivotal”), purchased or otherwise acquired publicly traded XL Fleet or Pivotal call options, and/or wrote publicly traded XL Fleet or Pivotal put options, and were allegedly damaged thereby. “XL Fleet Securities” means, collectively, publicly traded XL Fleet and Pivotal common stock (collectively, “XL Fleet Common Stock”), XL Fleet and Pivotal warrants (collectively, “XL Fleet Warrants”), Pivotal units (“Pivotal Units”), XL Fleet and Pivotal call options (collectively, “XL Fleet Call Options”), and XL Fleet and Pivotal put options (collectively, “XL Fleet Put Options”). All persons and entities that are members of the Settlement Class are referred to as “Settlement Class Members.”

3. Excluded from the Settlement Class are: (a) persons who suffered no compensable losses; and (b)(i) Defendants; (ii) any person who served as a partner, control person, officer, and/or director of XL Fleet or Pivotal during the Settlement Class Period, and members of their Immediate Families; (iii) present and former parents, subsidiaries, assigns, successors, affiliates, and predecessors of XL Fleet and Pivotal; (iv) any entity in which the Defendants have or had a controlling interest; (v) any trust of which an Individual Defendant is the settler or which is for the benefit of an Individual Defendant and/or member(s) of their Immediate Families; (vi) Defendants’ liability insurance carriers; and (vii) the legal representatives, heirs, successors, and assigns of any person or entity excluded under provisions (i) through (vi) hereof. Also excluded from the Settlement Class are any persons and entities who or which submit a request for exclusion from the Settlement Class that is accepted by the Court. For the avoidance of doubt, “affiliates” are persons or entities that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with one of the Defendants.

4. If you are not a Settlement Class Member do not submit a Claim Form. YOU MAY NOT, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, PARTICIPATE IN THE SETTLEMENT IF YOU ARE NOT A SETTLEMENT CLASS MEMBER. THUS, IF YOU ARE EXCLUDED FROM THE SETTLEMENT CLASS (AS SET FORTH IN PARAGRAPH 3 ABOVE), ANY CLAIM FORM THAT YOU SUBMIT, OR THAT MAY BE SUBMITTED ON YOUR BEHALF, WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

5. If you are a Settlement Class Member, you will be bound by the terms of any judgments or orders entered in the Action WHETHER OR NOT YOU SUBMIT A CLAIM FORM, unless you submit a request for exclusion from the Settlement Class. Thus, if you are a Settlement Class Member, the Judgment will release, and enjoin the filing or continued prosecution of, the Released Plaintiffs’ Claims against the Defendants’ Releasees.

6. You are eligible to participate in the distribution of the Net Settlement Fund only if you are a member of the Settlement Class and if you complete and return this form as specified below. If you fail to submit a timely, properly addressed, and completed Claim Form with the required documentation, your claim may be rejected and you may be precluded from receiving any distribution from the Net Settlement Fund.

7. Submission of this Claim Form does not guarantee that you will share in the proceeds of the Settlement. The distribution of the Net Settlement Fund will be governed by the Plan of Allocation set forth in the Settlement Notice, if it is approved by the Court, or by such other plan of allocation approved by the Court.

8. Use the Schedules of Transactions in Parts III–VI of this Claim Form to supply all required details of your transaction(s) (including free transfers) in and holdings of the applicable XL Fleet Securities. On the Schedules of Transactions, please provide all of the requested information with respect to your holdings, purchases, acquisitions, and sales of the applicable XL Fleet Securities, whether such transactions resulted in a profit or a loss. Failure to report all transaction and holding information during the requested time periods may result in the rejection of your claim.

9. Please note: Purchases/acquisitions of XL Fleet Common Stock after the Settlement Class Period are not eligible for a recovery from the Settlement. However, because the law provides for a “90 Day Lookback Period” (described in the Plan of Allocation set forth in the Settlement Notice), you must provide documentation related to your purchases and sales of XL Fleet Common Stock during the period from September 18, 2020 to June 29, 2021, inclusive, in order for the Claims Administrator to calculate your Recognized Loss Amount under the Plan of Allocation and process your claim.

10. You are required to submit genuine and sufficient documentation for all of your transactions and holdings in the XL Fleet Securities set forth in the Schedules of Transactions in Parts III–VI of this Claim Form. Documentation may consist of copies of brokerage confirmation slips or monthly brokerage account statements, or an authorized statement from your broker containing the transactional and holding information found in a broker confirmation slip or account statement. The Parties and the Claims Administrator do not independently have information about your investments in XL Fleet Securities. IF SUCH DOCUMENTS ARE NOT IN YOUR POSSESSION, PLEASE OBTAIN COPIES OR EQUIVALENT CONTEMPORANEOUS DOCUMENTS FROM YOUR BROKER. FAILURE TO SUPPLY THIS DOCUMENTATION MAY RESULT IN THE REJECTION OF YOUR CLAIM. DO NOT SEND ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS. Please keep a copy of all documents that you send to the Claims Administrator. Also, please do not highlight any portion of the Claim Form or any supporting documents.

11. Separate Claim Forms should be submitted for each separate legal entity (e.g., a claim from joint owners should not include separate transactions through an account that is in the name of just one of the joint owners, and an individual should not combine his or her IRA transactions with transactions made through an account in the individual’s name). Conversely, a single Claim Form should be submitted on behalf of one legal entity including all transactions made by that entity on one Claim Form, no matter how many separate accounts that entity has (e.g., a corporation with multiple brokerage accounts should include all transactions made in all accounts on one Claim Form).

12. All joint beneficial owners must sign this Claim Form. If you purchased or otherwise acquired XL Fleet Securities during the Settlement Class Period and held the securities in your name, you are the beneficial owner as well as the record owner and you must sign this Claim Form to participate in the Settlement. If, however, you purchased or otherwise acquired XL Fleet Securities during the Settlement Class Period and the securities were registered in the name of a third party, such as a nominee or brokerage firm, you are the beneficial owner of these securities, but the third party is the record owner. The beneficial owner, not the record owner, must sign this Claim Form.

13. Agents, executors, administrators, guardians, and trustees must complete and sign the Claim Form on behalf of persons represented by them, and they must:
  • (a) expressly state the capacity in which they are acting;
  • (b) identify the name, account number, Social Security Number (or taxpayer identification number), address, and telephone number of the beneficial owner of (or other person or entity on whose behalf they are acting with respect to) the XL Fleet Securities; and
  • (c) furnish evidence of their authority to bind to the Claim Form the person or entity on whose behalf they are acting. (Authority to complete and sign a Claim Form cannot be established by stockbrokers demonstrating only that they have discretionary authority to trade stock in another person’s accounts.)
14. By submitting a signed Claim Form, you will be swearing that you:
  • (a) own(ed) the XL Fleet Securities you have listed in the Claim Form; or
  • (b) are expressly authorized to act on behalf of the owner thereof.
15. By submitting a signed Claim Form, you will be swearing to the truth of the statements contained therein and the genuineness of the documents attached thereto, subject to penalties of perjury under the laws of the United States of America. The making of false statements, or the submission of forged or fraudulent documentation, will result in the rejection of your claim and may subject you to civil liability or criminal prosecution.

16. If the Court approves the Settlement, payments to eligible Authorized Claimants pursuant to the Plan of Allocation (or such other plan of allocation as the Court approves) will be made after the completion of all claims processing. This could take substantial time. Please be patient.

17. PLEASE NOTE: As set forth in the Plan of Allocation, each Authorized Claimant shall receive its pro rata share of the Net Settlement Fund. If the prorated payment to any Authorized Claimant, however, calculates to less than $10.00, it will not be included in the calculation and no distribution will be made to that Authorized Claimant.

18. If you have questions concerning the Claim Form, or need additional copies of the Claim Form or the Settlement Notice, you may contact the Claims Administrator at In re XL Fleet Power Inc.
