Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On December 14, 2022, COVA Acquisition Corp. ("COVA") held an Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders (the "Extraordinary General Meeting") in connection with the proposed business combination (the "Business Combination") contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 26, 2022, by and among COVA, ECARX Holdings Inc. ("ECARX") and the other parties thereto. The Business Combination is described in the definitive proxy statement filed by COVA with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 18, 2022 (the "Proxy Statement") and incorporated herein by reference.

Present at the Extraordinary General Meeting were holders of 28,040,621 ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of COVA ("Ordinary Shares"), in person or by proxy, representing approximately 75% of the voting power of the Ordinary Shares as of November 8, 2022, the record date for the Extraordinary General Meeting (the "Record Date"), and constituting a quorum for the transaction of business. As of the Record Date, there were 37,500,000 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding.

At the Extraordinary General Meeting, COVA's shareholders voted on and approved the proposals below, in each case as defined and described in greater detail in the Proxy Statement.

The approval of the Business Combination Proposal (as defined in the Proxy Statement) required an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares entitled to vote, who attend, in person or by proxy, and vote thereupon at the Extraordinary General Meeting. The approval of the Merger Proposal (as defined in the Proxy Statement) required a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares entitled to vote, who attend, in person or by proxy, and vote thereupon at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are based on beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to COVA and ECARX, and also contains certain financial forecasts and projections.

All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this communication are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: "may," "will," "could," "would," "should," "expect," "intend," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "project," "potential," "continue," "ongoing," "target," "seek" or the negative or plural of these words, or other similar expressions that are predictions or indicate future events or prospects, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. These statements are based upon estimates and forecasts and reflect the views, assumptions, expectations, and opinions of COVA and ECARX, which involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Any such estimates, assumptions, expectations, forecasts, views or opinions, whether or not identified in this communication, should be regarded as preliminary and for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results. Although each of COVA and ECARX believes that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this communication, each of COVA and ECARX caution you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known and projections of the future, which are inherently uncertain. In addition, there are risks and uncertainties described in the proxy statement/prospectus on Form F-4 relating to the proposed transaction filed by ECARX with the SEC and other documents filed by COVA or ECARX from time to time with the SEC. These filings may identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Neither COVA nor ECARX can assure you that the forward-looking statements in this communication will prove to be accurate. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, such as the occurrence of any event that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement, the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the business combination, costs related to the transaction, the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the risk that the transaction disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the transaction, the outcome of any potential litigation, government or regulatory proceedings and other risks and uncertainties, including those included under the heading "Risk Factors" in the registration statement on Form F-4 filed by ECARX with the SEC and those included under the heading "Risk Factors" in the final prospectus of COVA dated February 4, 2021 and in its subsequent filings with the SEC. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by COVA or ECARX, their respective directors, officers or employees or any other person that COVA or ECARX will achieve their objectives and plans in any specified time frame, or at all. The forward-looking statements in this communication represent the views of COVA and ECARX as of the date of this communication. Subsequent events and developments may cause those views to change. However, while COVA and ECARX may update these forward-looking statements in the future, COVA and ECARX specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing the views of COVA and ECARX as of any date subsequent to the date of this communication. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
