Dear Sirs:

I refer to the recapitalization and global restructuring of the financial debt of the Wallbox group (the "Restructuring") and to the Spanish law restructuring plan pursuant to which the Restructuring is being implemented (the "Restructuring Plan"), signed on or around the date of this letter (the "Letter") by, among others, the Company, a group of financial institutions including Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A., Banco Santander, S.A., CaixaBank, S.A., EBN Banco de Negocios, S.A., Instituto de Crédito Oficial, E.P.E., Institut Català de Finances, Mora Banc Grup, S.A., Compañía Española de Financiación del Desarrollo Cofides, S.A., S.M.E., acting in its own name and on behalf of the Fondo para inversiones en el exterior, F.C.P.J. (FIEX) (the "Financial Institutions"), and the Global Agent, in its capacity as agent of the Restructuring, and which is expected to be judicially approved (homologado) pursuant to Title III of Book Two of the Spanish Insolvency Law.

In the context of the Restructuring, certain corporate resolutions are expected to be approved at the 2026 annual general meeting of shareholders of the Parent, including, among others, certain of those listed in Clause 3 of this Letter.

In furtherance of the successful completion of the Restructuring and in the Shareholder's capacity as a shareholder of the Parent, the Shareholder agrees to undertake, by means of this Letter, the lock-up and voting commitments set forth below.

DEFINITIONS

In this Letter:

 


 

"Capital Increase" means the capital increase expected to be carried out in the context of the Restructuring through the issuance of class A shares of the Parent (with a par value of €2.40 each) (the "Class A Shares"), structured as one or more capital increases with exclusion of the pre-emptive subscription rights (uitsluiting van voorkeursrechten) of the shareholders of the Parent pursuant to Sections 2:96 and 2:96a of the Dutch Civil Code, and one or more private placements among the Investors (PIPE).

Warrants” means the warrants expected to be issued on the settlement date of the Capital Increase as consideration for the Capital Increase subscription commitments assumed by certain shareholders and investors in the context of the Restructuring, and which will entitle their holders to subscribe for newly issued Class A Shares of the Parent.
