I, 附近汽車公司首席執行官威廉·特倫納。證明以下各項:
1. | Review: I have reviewed the interim financial report and interim MD&A (together, the “interim filings”) of Vicinity Motor Corp. (the “issuer”) for the interim period ended September 30, 2022 |
2. | No misrepresentations: Based on my knowledge, having exercised reasonable diligence, the interim filings do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated or that is necessary to make a statement not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it was made, with respect to the period covered by the interim filings. |
3. | Fair presentation: Based on my knowledge, having exercised reasonable diligence, the interim financial report together with the other financial information included in the interim filings fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, financial performance and cash flows of the issuer, as of the date of and for the periods presented in the interim filings. |
4. | Responsibility: The issuer’s other certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (DC&P) and internal control over financial reporting (ICFR), as those terms are defined in National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings, for the issuer. |
5. | Design: Subject to the limitations, if any, described in paragraphs 5.2 and 5.3, the issuer’s other certifying officer(s) and I have, as at the end of the period covered by the interim filings |
(a) | designed DC&P, or caused it to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance that |
(i) | material information relating to the issuer is made known to us by others, particularly during the period in which the interim filings are being prepared; and |
(Ii) | information required to be disclosed by the issuer in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted by it under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in securities legislation; and |
(b) | 設計ICFR,或使其在我們的監督下設計,以提供關於財務報告的可靠性和根據發行人的GAAP編制外部財務報表的合理保證。 |
5.1 | Control framework: The control framework the issuer’s other certifying officer(s) and I used to design the issuer’s ICFR is Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organization of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). |
5.2 | ICFR – material weakness relating to design: 不適用 |
5.3 | Limitation on scope of design: 不適用 |
6. | Reporting changes in ICFR: The issuer has disclosed in its interim MD&A any change in the issuer’s ICFR that occurred during the period beginning on July 1, 2022, and ended on September 30, 2022, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the issuer’s ICFR. |
