The information herein does not purport to be all-inclusive. Please refer to the business combination agreement and other related transaction documents for the full terms of the transaction. Please also refer to the "Important Information About the Business Combination and Where to Find It" paragraph below. Neither EVgo, CRIS, nor any of their respective affiliates have any obligation to update this Presentation. Although all information and opinions expressed in this Presentation were obtained from sources believed to be reliable and in good faith, no representation or warranty, express or implied, is made as to its accuracy or completeness. This Presentation contains preliminary information only, is subject to change at any time and is not, and should not be assumed to be, complete or to constitute all the information necessary to adequately make an informed decision regarding the proposed business combination of EVgo and CRIS. Recipients of this presentation should each make their own evaluation of EVgo, CRIS and the potential transaction and of the relevance and adequacy of the information and should make such other investigations as they deem necessary. Industry Data Information contained in this Presentation concerning EVgo's industry and the markets in which it operates, including EVgo's general expectations and market position, market opportunity and market size, is based on information from EVgo management's estimates and research, as well as from industry and general publications and research, surveys and studies conducted by third parties. In some cases, we may not expressly refer to the sources from which this information is derived. Management estimates are derived from industry and general publications and research, surveys and studies conducted by third parties and EVgo's knowledge of its industry and assumptions based on such information and knowledge, which we believe to be reasonable. In addition, assumptions and estimates of EVgo's and its industry's future performance are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors. These and other factors could cause EVgo's future performance and actual market growth, opportunity and size and the like to differ materially from our assumptions and estimates. Trademarks and Trade Names CRIS and EVgo own or have rights to various trademarks, service marks and trade names that they use in connection with the operation of their respective businesses. This Presentation also contains trademarks, service marks and trade names of third parties, which are the property of their respective owners. The use or display of third parties' trademarks, service marks, trade names or products in this Presentation is not intended to, and does not imply, a relationship with CRIS or EVgo, or an endorsement or sponsorship by or of CRIS or EVgo. Solely for convenience, the trademarks, service marks and trade names referred to in this Presentation may appear without the ®, TM or SM symbols, but such references are not intended to indicate, in any way, that CRIS or EVgo will not assert, to the fullest extent under applicable law, their rights or the right of the applicable licensor to these trademarks, service marks and trade names. Use of Projected Financial Information This Presentation contains projected financial information with respect to EVgo, namely gigawatt-hour throughput, revenue, free cash flow, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, capital expenditures and operating costs for 2020-2027. Such projected financial information constitutes forward-looking information, and is for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of future results. The assumptions and estimates underlying such projected financial information are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic, competitive and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the prospective financial information. See "forward-looking statements" paragraph below. Actual results may differ materially from the results contemplated by the projected financial information contained in this Presentation, and the inclusion of such information in this Presentation should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results reflected in such projections will be achieved. Neither the independent auditors of CRIS nor the independent registered public accounting firm of EVgo, audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the projections for the purpose of their inclusion in this Presentation, and accordingly, neither of them expressed an opinion or provided any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this Presentation. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures The financial information and data contained in this Presentation is unaudited and does not conform to Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). Accordingly, such information and data may not be included in, may be adjusted in or may be presented differently in, any proxy statement to be filed by CRIS with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Some of the financial information and data contained in this Presentation, such as EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow, have not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). CRIS and EVgo believe these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to EVgo's financial condition and results of operations. CRIS and EVgo believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating projected operating results and trends in and in comparing EVgo's financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. Management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in EVgo's financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures in connection with GAAP results. Important Information About the Business Combination and Where to Find It In connection with the proposed business combination, CRIS has filed or intends to file preliminary and definitive proxy statements with the SEC. The definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents will be sent or given to the stockholders of CRIS as of the record date established for voting on the proposed business combination and will contain important information about the proposed business combination and related matters. Stockholders of CRIS and other interested persons are advised to read the preliminary proxy statement and any amendments thereto and, once available, the definitive proxy statement, in connection with CRIS's solicitation of proxies for the meeting of stockholders to be held to approve, among other things, the proposed business combination because the proxy statement will contain important information about CRIS, EVgo and the proposed business combination. When available, the definitive proxy statement will be mailed to CRIS's stockholders as of a record date to be established for voting on the proposed business combination.

These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Presentation, and on the current expectations of the respective managements of CRIS and EVgo and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of CRIS or EVgo. Potential risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the business combination, including the risk that any regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the business combination or that the approval of the stockholders of CRIS or EVgo is not obtained; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of business combination; risk relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to EVgo; the amount of redemption requests made by CRIS's stockholders; the overall level of consumer demand for EVgo's products; general economic conditions and other factors affecting consumer confidence, preferences, and behavior; disruption and volatility in the global currency, capital, and credit markets; the financial strength of EVgo's customers; EVgo's ability to implement its business strategy; changes in governmental regulation, EVgo's exposure to litigation claims and other loss contingencies; disruptions and other impacts to EVgo's business, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and government actions and restrictive measures implemented in response; stability of EVgo's suppliers, as well as consumer demand for its products, in light of disease epidemics and health-related concerns such as the COVID-19 pandemic; the impact that global climate change trends may have on EVgo and its suppliers and customers; EVgo's ability to protect patents, trademarks and other intellectual property rights; any breaches of, or interruptions in, CRIS's information systems; fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of electricity and other raw materials and contracted products as well as foreign currency fluctuations; changes in tax laws and liabilities, tariffs, legal, regulatory, political and economic risks. More information on potential factors that could affect CRIS's or EVgo's financial results is included from time to time in CRIS's public reports filed with the SEC, as well as the preliminary and the definitive proxy statements that CRIS intends to file with the SEC in connection with CRIS's solicitation of proxies for the meeting of stockholders to be held to approve, among other things, the proposed business combination. If any of these risks materialize or CRIS's or EVgo's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither CRIS nor EVgo presently know, or that CRIS and EVgo currently believe are immaterial, that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward- looking statements reflect CRIS's and EVgo's expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Presentation. CRIS and EVgo anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause their assessments to change. However, while CRIS and EVgo may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, CRIS and EVgo specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, except as required by law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing CRIS's or EVgo's assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Presentation. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. EVgo 2
