(b) As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, Goldenstone shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of Company Common Stock entitled to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.01: a letter of transmittal prior to the Closing, which shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to Goldenstone and the Company (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and shall specify (i) that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the certificates evidencing such shares of Company Common Stock (the “Certificates”) shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent or confirmation of cancellation of such Certificates from the Company, (each, a “Transfer Agent Cancellation”); and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates pursuant to the Letter of Transmittal. Within two (2) Business Days (but in no event prior to the Effective Time) after the surrender to the Exchange Agent of all Certificates held by such holder for cancellation (or a Transfer Agent Cancellation), together with a Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefore, and the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver, the Per Share Merger Consideration with respect thereto in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.02, each Certificate entitled to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 3.01(a)(i) shall be deemed at all times after the Effective Time to represent only (A) the right to receive upon such surrender the Per Share Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01(a)(i) and (B) the contingent right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration Earnout Shares, if, as and when payable in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.07.

(c) No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to the Goldenstone Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid from the Exchange Fund to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares of Goldenstone Common Stock represented thereby until the holder of such Certificate shall surrender such Certificate in accordance with Section 3.02(b). Subject to the effect of escheat, Tax or other applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate, Surviving Corporation shall pay or cause to be paid to the holder of the Certificates representing shares of Goldenstone Common Stock issued in exchange therefore, without interest, (i) promptly, but in any event within five (5) Business Days of such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Goldenstone Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions, with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date occurring after surrender, payable with respect to such shares of Goldenstone Common Stock.

(d) The Per Share Merger Consideration payable upon conversion of the Company Securities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been paid and issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Securities.

(e) The Per Share Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Goldenstone Common Stock occurring on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time.

(f) Except as set forth in Section 3.07 hereto, any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the Company Equity Securityholders for one year after the Closing Date shall be delivered to Goldenstone, upon demand, and any Company Equity Securityholders who have not theretofore complied with this Section 3.02 shall thereafter look only to Goldenstone for the Per Share Merger Consideration. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by the applicable Company Equity Securityholders as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any government entity shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of Goldenstone free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(g) None of the Exchange Agent, Goldenstone or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any Company Securityholder for any such Company Securities (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law in accordance with Section 3.02.

(h) Goldenstone shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to a person such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority by Goldenstone, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. If Goldenstone intends to withhold any Taxes from any amounts payable to holders of equity interests in the Company (other than with respect to any withholding) on amounts treated as compensation for applicable Tax purposes, Goldenstone shall use reasonable best efforts to provide prior notice of such withholding to the Company as soon as reasonably practicable after it determines withholding is required. Goldenstone and any Company Equity Securityholder, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to reduce or seek an exemption from any withholding to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

(i) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Per Share Merger Consideration that such holder is otherwise entitled to receive pursuant to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Section 3.01(a)(i).

Section 3.03 Stock Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Common Stock thereafter on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates representing Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Common Stock, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by Law. On or after the Effective Time, any Certificates presented to the Exchange Agent or Surviving Corporation for any reason shall be converted into (a) the Per Share Merger Consideration in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01(a)(i) and (iv) the contingent right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration Earnout Shares if, as and when payable in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.07.

Section 3.04 Payment of Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, including Section 9.03, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, (a) if the Closing does not take place, each party shall be solely responsible for its own fees and expenses; and (b) if the Closing occurs, then all of the unpaid fees and expenses incurred by the parties shall be paid at the Closing.

Section 3.05 Appraisal Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent available under the DGCL, shares of Company Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by stockholders of the Company who shall have neither voted in favor of the Merger nor consented thereto in writing and who shall have demanded properly in writing appraisal for such Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL and otherwise complied with all of the provisions of the DGCL relevant to the exercise and perfection of dissenters’ rights shall not be converted into, and such stockholders shall have no right to receive, the Per Share Merger Consideration or the contingent right to receive any portion of the Merger Consideration Earnout Shares, unless and until such stockholder fails to perfect or withdraws or otherwise loses his, her or its right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL. Any stockholder of the Company who fails to perfect or who effectively withdraws or otherwise loses his, her or its rights to appraisal of such shares of Company Common Stock under Section 262 of the DGCL shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive (i) the Per Share Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon, upon surrender, in the manner provided in Section 3.01(a)(i), of the Certificate or Certificates that formerly evidenced such shares of Company Common Stock, and a portion of the Merger Consideration Earnout Shares if, as and when payable in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.07.

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall give Goldenstone (i) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company and any withdrawals of such demands, and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Goldenstone (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

Section 3.06 Closing Calculations.

(a) No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Goldenstone a statement prepared by the Company in good faith and certified by an executive officer of Company (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the following:

Section 10.02 Non-survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

Section 10.03 Severability.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 10.04 Entire Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede, except as set forth in Section 7.04(b), all prior agreements, and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof, except for the Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 10.06 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any conflict of law rule or principle that would result in the application of any laws other than the laws of the State of Delaware. All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court declines to exercise jurisdiction or if subject matter jurisdiction over the matter that is the subject of any such legal action or proceeding is vested exclusively in the U.S. federal courts, the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware.

Each of the parties to this Agreement further agrees that notice as provided herein shall constitute sufficient service of process and the parties further waive any argument that such service is insufficient. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in Delaware as described herein for any reason, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and (c) that (i) the Action in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such Action is improper or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THAT FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.07.

Section 10.08 Headings. The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 10.09 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 10.10 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the Transactions may only be brought against, the parties hereto, and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein or in the other Transaction Documents with respect to such party.

Section 10.11 Securityholder Representative.

(a) By approving this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or by executing and delivering a Letter of Transmittal, each Company Securityholder shall have irrevocably authorized and appointed Securityholder Representative as such Person's representative and attorney-in-fact to act on behalf of such Person for all purposes in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the agreements ancillary hereto and thereto. The Securityholder Representative shall act as the representative of the Company Securityholders in respect of all matters arising under this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the agreements ancillary hereto and thereto, and shall be authorized to act, or refrain from acting, with respect to any actions to be taken by or on behalf of the Company Securityholders or the Securityholder Representative, including to enforce any rights granted to the Company Securityholders hereunder and thereunder, in each case as the Securityholder Representative believes is necessary or appropriate under this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and/or the agreements ancillary hereto and thereto, for and on behalf of the Company Securityholders. The Company Securityholders shall be bound by all such actions taken by the Securityholder Representative and the Company Securityholders shall not be permitted to take any such actions.

(b) The Securityholder Representative is serving as the Securityholder Representative solely for purposes of administrative convenience, and is not personally liable for any of the obligations of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Company Securityholders hereunder, and Goldenstone (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) agrees that it will not look to the Securityholder Representative or the underlying assets of the Securityholder Representative for the satisfaction of any obligations of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Company Securityholders. The Securityholder Representative shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken, in connection with the performance by the Securityholder Representative of the Securityholder Representative’s duties or the exercise by the Securityholder Representative of the Securityholder Representative’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any agreement ancillary hereto or thereto, except in the case of its intentional fraud or willful misconduct. No bond shall be required of the Securityholder Representative. The Securityholder Representative may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. The Securityholder Representative shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or any agreement ancillary hereto or thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Securityholder Representative shall have the full power and authority to interpret all the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements or any agreement ancillary hereto or thereto, and to consent to any amendment hereof or thereof on behalf of the Company Securityholders and their respective successors.

(c) The Securityholder Representative may resign at any time by giving twenty (20) days’ notice to Goldenstone and the Company Securityholders; provided, however, in the event of the resignation or removal of the Securityholder Representative, a new Securityholder Representative (who shall be reasonably acceptable to Goldenstone) shall be appointed by the vote or written consent of a majority of the shares of Goldenstone Common Stock, voting together as a single class (with each such share entitled to one vote), then held by the Company Securityholders as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) The appointment of the Securityholder Representative is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable by Company Securityholders in any manner or for any reason. This authority granted to the Securityholder Representative shall not be affected by the death, illness, dissolution, disability, incapacity or other inability to act of any principal pursuant to any applicable Law. ▇▇▇ (▇▇▇▇▇) ▇▇▇▇ hereby accepts his appointment as the initial Securityholder Representative. Any decision, act, consent or instruction taken by the Securityholder Representative in accordance with this Section 10.11 on behalf of Company Securityholders (each, an “Securityholder Representative Authorized Action”) shall be final, binding and conclusive on Company Securityholders as fully as if such Persons had taken such Securityholder Representative Authorized Action. The Indemnified Party agrees that the Securityholder Representative, as the Securityholder Representative, shall have no liability to the Indemnified Party for any Authorized Action.

Section 10.12 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof, and, accordingly, that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof (including the parties’ obligation to consummate the Merger) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06 without proof of actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity as expressly permitted in this Agreement. Each of the parties hereby further waives (a) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any Law to post security or a bond as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

This Sponsor Support Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of June 26, 2024, is entered into by and among Goldenstone Holding, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), Goldenstone Acquisition Limited, a Delaware corporation (“Goldenstone”), and Infintium Fuel Cell Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, concurrently herewith, the Company, Pacifica Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Goldenstone are entering into a Business Combination Agreement (as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “BCA”), pursuant to which (and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein) Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldenstone;

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the BCA;

WHEREAS, the Sponsor is currently the record owner of 375,625 shares of Goldenstone Common Stock (the “Sponsor Shares”); and

WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement to the willingness of Goldenstone and the Company to enter into the BCA, Goldenstone, the Company and the Sponsor are entering into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Sponsor, Goldenstone and the Company hereby agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Voting Agreement. The Sponsor agrees that, at the Goldenstone Stockholders’ Meeting, at any other meeting of the stockholders of Goldenstone (whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned or postponed meeting, however called and including any adjournment or postponement thereof) and in connection with any written consent of the stockholders of Goldenstone, the Sponsor shall:

a. when such meeting is held, appear at such meeting or otherwise cause the Sponsor Shares to be counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum;

b. vote (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause to be voted at such meeting (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), all of the Sponsor Shares (i) in favor of the approval and adoption of the BCA and approval of the Merger and all other transactions contemplated by the BCA and (ii) against any action, agreement or transaction or proposal that would result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Goldenstone under the BCA or that would reasonably be expected to result in the failure of the Merger from being consummated and (iii) in favor of each of the proposals and any other matters necessary or reasonably requested by Goldenstone for consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the BCA; and

A-1

c. vote (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause to be voted at such meeting (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), all of the Sponsor Shares against (i) any Business Combination Proposal other than with the Company and (ii) any other action that would reasonably be expected to (x) materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the BCA, or (y) result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of the Sponsor contained in this Agreement.

2. Transfer of Shares. Except as otherwise contemplated by the BCA or this Agreement, the Sponsor agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) sell, assign, transfer (including by operation of law), create any lien or pledge, dispose of or otherwise encumber any of the Sponsor Shares or otherwise agree to do any of the foregoing, (b) deposit any Sponsor Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement or grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect thereto that is inconsistent with this Agreement or (c) enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or undertaking requiring the direct acquisition or sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of any Sponsor Shares.

3. No Solicitation of Transactions. The Sponsor agrees not to directly or indirectly, through any officer, director, representative, agent or otherwise, (a) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage (including by furnishing information) the submission of, or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, any transaction in violation of the BCA or (b) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person or other entity or “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, any information with the intent to, or otherwise cooperate in any way with respect to, or knowingly assist, participate in, facilitate or encourage, any unsolicited proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, a Business Combination Proposal or other transaction in violation of the BCA. Sponsor shall, and shall cause its affiliates and Representatives to, immediately cease any and all existing discussions or negotiations with any person (other than with the Company, its stockholders and their respective affiliates and Representatives) conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to, or which is reasonably likely to give rise to or result in, a Business Combination Proposal. If the Sponsor receives any inquiry or proposal with respect to a Business Combination Proposal, then Sponsor shall promptly (and in no event later than twenty-four (24) hours after the Sponsor becomes aware of such inquiry or proposal) notify such person in writing that Goldenstone is subject to an exclusivity agreement with respect to the Merger that prohibits Sponsor from considering such inquiry or proposal.

4. Representations and Warranties of the Sponsor. The Sponsor hereby represents and warrants to Goldenstone and the Company as follows:

a. The Sponsor is the only record and a beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of, and has good, valid and marketable title to, the Sponsor Shares, free and clear of Liens other than as created by this Agreement or Sponsor’s organizational documents or the organizational documents of Goldenstone (including, without limitation, for the purposes hereof, any agreement between or among stockholders of Goldenstone).

A-2

b. Except as may be limited by the Letter Agreement and Stock Escrow Agreement entered into in connection with the initial public offering of Goldenstone, the Sponsor (i) has full voting power, full power of disposition and full power to issue instructions with respect to the matters set forth herein, in each case, with respect to the Sponsor Shares, (ii) has not entered into any voting agreement or voting trust with respect to any of the Sponsor Shares that is inconsistent with the Sponsor’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement, (iii) has not granted a proxy or power of attorney with respect to any of the Sponsor Shares that is inconsistent with the Sponsor’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement and (iv) has not entered into any agreement or undertaking that is otherwise inconsistent with, or would interfere with, or prohibit or prevent it from satisfying, its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

c. The Sponsor (i) is a legal entity duly organized, validly existing and, to the extent such concept is applicable, in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and (ii) has all requisite limited liability company or other power and authority and has taken all limited liability company or other action necessary in order to, execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Sponsor and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Sponsor enforceable against the Sponsor in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity.

d. Other than the filings, notices and reports pursuant to, in compliance with or required to be made under the Exchange Act, no filings, notices, reports, consents, registrations, approvals, permits, waivers, expirations of waiting periods or authorizations are required to be obtained by the Sponsor from, or to be given by the Sponsor to, or be made by the Sponsor with, any Governmental Authority in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Sponsor of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the BCA.

e. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Sponsor does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the BCA will not, constitute or result in (i) a breach or violation of, or a default under, the limited liability company agreement or similar governing documents of the Sponsor, (ii) with or without notice, lapse of time or both, a breach or violation of, a termination (or right of termination) of or a default under, the loss of any benefit under, the creation, modification or acceleration of any obligations under or the creation of a Lien on any of the properties, rights or assets of the Sponsor pursuant to any contract binding upon the Sponsor or, assuming (solely with respect to performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby), compliance with the matters referred to in Section 1, under any applicable Law to which the Sponsor is subject or (iii) any change in the rights or obligations of any party under any contract legally binding upon the Sponsor, except, in the case of clause (ii) or (iii) directly above, for any such breach, violation, termination, default, creation, acceleration or change that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or impair the Sponsor’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the BCA.

A-3

f. As of the date of this Agreement, there is no action, proceeding or investigation pending against the Sponsor or, to the knowledge of the Sponsor, threatened against the Sponsor that questions the beneficial or record ownership of the Sponsor Shares, the validity of this Agreement or the performance by the Sponsor of its obligations under this Agreement.

g. The Sponsor understands and acknowledges that each of Goldenstone and the Company is entering into the BCA in reliance upon the Sponsor’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and the representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements of the Sponsor contained in this Agreement.

5. Further Assurances. From time to time, at either Goldenstone’s or the Company’s request and without further consideration, the Sponsor shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or reasonably requested to effect the actions and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6. Changes in Capital Stock. In the event of a stock split, stock dividend or distribution, or any change in Goldenstone’s capital stock by reason of any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, exchange of shares or the like, equitable adjustment shall be made to the provisions of this Agreement as may be required so that the intended rights, privileges, duties and obligations hereunder shall be given full effect.

7. Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, except by an instrument in writing signed by the Sponsor, Goldenstone and the Company.

8. Waiver. No failure or delay by any party hereto exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies of the parties hereto hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have under this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by such party.

A-4

All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, by email (with confirmation of receipt) or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service to the parties hereto at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice made pursuant to this Section 9):

Stockholder Support Agreement

This Stockholder Support Agreement, dated as of June 26, 2024 (this “Agreement”), by and among Goldenstone Acquisition Limited, a Delaware corporation (“Goldenstone”), Infintium Fuel Cell Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and certain of the stockholders of the Company, whose names appear on the signature pages of this Agreement (each, a “Stockholder” and, collectively, the “Stockholders”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Goldenstone, Pacifica Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Goldenstone (“Merger Sub”), and the Company have negotiated a Business Combination Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “BCA”; terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the BCA), which provides, among other things, that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldenstone;

WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, each Stockholder owns of record the number of shares of Class A Common Stock as set forth opposite such Stockholder’s name on Exhibit A hereto (all such shares of Class A Common Stock and any shares of Company Common Stock of the Company of which ownership of record or the power to vote is hereafter acquired by the Stockholders prior to the termination of this Agreement being referred to herein as the “Shares”); and

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the BCA.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. BCA Approved; Agreement to Vote. Each Stockholder, with respect to such Stockholder’s Shares, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees to vote, at any meeting of the Stockholders of the Company, and in any action by written consent of the Stockholders of the Company (which written consent shall be delivered promptly, and in any event within forty eight (48) hours, after the Company requests such delivery), all of the Shares held by such Stockholder at such time in favor of the approval and adoption of the BCA and approval of the Merger and all other transactions contemplated by the BCA. Each Stockholder, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees to vote at any meeting of the Stockholders of the Company, and to act by written consent of Company Stockholders, against any action, agreement, transaction or proposal that would cause a breach of any covenant, representation, warranty or other obligation or agreement of the Company under the BCA or that would reasonably be expected to prevent the Merger from being consummated. Each Stockholder acknowledges receipt and review of a copy of the BCA.

B-1

2. Transfer of Shares. Each Stockholder, severally and not jointly, agrees that he, she or it shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) sell, assign, transfer (including by operation of law), create any lien or pledge, dispose of or otherwise encumber any of the Shares or otherwise agree to do any of the foregoing, except for a sale, assignment or transfer pursuant to the BCA or to another Stockholder of the Company that is a party to this Agreement and bound by the terms and obligations hereof, (b) deposit any Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement or grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect thereto that is inconsistent with this Agreement or (c) enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or undertaking with respect to the direct acquisition or sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of any Shares, except as set forth in the BCA or this Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit the transfer of the Shares to an affiliate of Stockholder, but only if such affiliate of such Stockholder shall execute this Agreement or a joinder agreeing to become a party to this Agreement.

3. No Solicitation of Transactions. Each of the Stockholders, severally and not jointly, agrees not to directly or indirectly, through any officer, director, representative, agent or otherwise, (a) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage (including by furnishing information) the submission of, or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, any transaction in violation of the BCA or (b) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person or other entity or “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, any information with the intent to, or otherwise cooperate in any way with respect to, or knowingly assist, participate in, facilitate or encourage, any unsolicited proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Alternative Transaction in violation of the BCA. Each Stockholder shall, and shall direct his, her or its representatives and agents to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any discussions or negotiations with any parties that may be ongoing with respect to any Alternative Transaction (other than the transactions contemplated by the BCA) to the extent required by the BCA. If any Stockholder receives any inquiry or proposal with respect to an Alternative Transaction, then such Stockholder shall promptly (and in no event later than twenty-four (24) hours after such Stockholder becomes aware of such inquiry or proposal) notify such person in writing that the Company is subject to an exclusivity agreement with respect to the sale of the Company that prohibits such Stockholder from considering such inquiry or proposal.

4. Representations and Warranties. Each Stockholder, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to Goldenstone as follows:

a. The execution, delivery and performance by such Stockholder of this Agreement and the consummation by such Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any statute, law, ordinance, regulation, rule, code, executive order, injunction, judgment, decree or other order applicable to such Stockholder, (ii) require any consent, approval or authorization of, declaration, filing or registration with, or notice to, any person or entity, (iii) result in the creation of any encumbrance on any Shares (other than under this Agreement, the BCA and the agreements contemplated by the BCA) or (iv) if such Stockholder is an entity, conflict with or result in a breach of or constitute a default under any provision of such Stockholder’s governing documents.

B-2

b. As of the date of this Agreement, such Stockholder owns exclusively of record and has good and valid title to the Shares set forth opposite the Stockholder’s name on Exhibit A free and clear of any security interest, lien, claim, pledge, proxy, option, right of first refusal, agreement, voting restriction, limitation on disposition, charge, adverse claim of ownership or use or other encumbrance of any kind and has the sole power to vote and the right, power and authority to sell, transfer and deliver such Shares, other than pursuant and subject to: (i) this Agreement, (ii) applicable securities laws, and (iii) the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as amended and/or restated from time to time. Such Stockholder is not the registered owner of any Shares other than those set forth on Exhibit B.

c. Such Stockholder has the power, authority and capacity to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and that this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Stockholder. No person not a signatory to this Agreement (or such signatory’s spouse for purposes of applicable community property laws) has a beneficial interest in or a right to acquire or vote any of the Shares (other than, if Stockholder is trust, the beneficiary(ies) thereof).

d. As of the date of this Agreement, there is no action, proceeding or investigation pending against the Stockholder or, to the knowledge of the Stockholder, threatened against the Stockholder that questions the beneficial or record ownership of the Stockholder Shares, the validity of this Agreement or the performance by the Stockholder of its obligations under this Agreement.

e. The Stockholder understands and acknowledges that each of Goldenstone and the Company is entering into the BCA in reliance upon the Stockholder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and the representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements of the Stockholder contained in this Agreement.

5. Further Assurances. From time to time, at either Goldenstone’s or the Company’s request and without further consideration, the Stockholder shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or reasonably requested to effect the actions and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6. Waiver. No failure or delay by any party hereto exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies of the parties hereto hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have under this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by such party.

B-3

7. Notices. All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, by email (with confirmation of receipt) or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service to the parties hereto at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice made pursuant to this Section 6):

FORM OF
LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

This Lock-Up Agreement (this “Agreement”) is dated as of [•], 2024 by and between the undersigned stockholder (the “Holder”) of Infintium Fuel Cell Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Goldenstone Acquisition Limited, a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”).

RECITALS

A. Parent, Pacifica Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent, the Company and Yan (▇▇▇▇▇) ▇▇▇▇, solely in his capacity as representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of the Company Securityholders, entered into a Business Combination Agreement dated as of June 26, 2024 (the “BCA”). Capitalized terms herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the BCA.

B. Pursuant to the BCA, the Company will merge with and into the Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with the Company as the surviving corporation. As a result of the Merger, Parent will become the 100% stockholder of the Company.

C. The Holder is the record and/or beneficial owner of certain shares of Company Common Stock, which will be exchanged for shares of Goldenstone Common Stock pursuant to the BCA.

D. As a condition of, and as a material inducement for the Parent and the Company to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the BCA, the Holder has agreed to execute and deliver this Agreement, which shall be effective as of the Closing Date of the Merger.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Lock-up.

(a) Subject to Section 1(b) below, during the Lock-up Period (as defined below), the Holder agrees that it, he or she will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Lock-up Shares (as defined below), enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-up Shares or otherwise, publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, or engage in any Short Sales (as defined below) with respect to the Lock-up Shares.

C-2

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, during the Lock-up Period, the Parent will (i) place a stop order on all the Lock-up Shares, including those which may be covered by a registration statement, and (ii) notify the Parent’s transfer agent in writing of the stop order and the restrictions on the Lock-up Shares under this Agreement and direct the Parent’s transfer agent not to process any attempts by the Holder to resell or transfer any Lock-up Shares, except in compliance with this Agreement.

(c) For purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.

(d) The term “Lock-up Period” means the earlier of (i) the date that is six (6) months after the Closing Date, (ii) the business day following the day that the Goldenstone Common Stock has traded at or above $12.50 for any fifteen trading days in a thirty trading day period, and (iii) the business day following the day that the Goldenstone Common Stock has traded at or above $11.50 for fifteen consecutive trading days.

2. Beneficial Ownership.

SEVENTH:

A. A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the GCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the GCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the GCL, as so amended. Any repeal or modification of this paragraph A by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation with respect to events occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification.

B. The Corporation, to the full extent permitted by Section 145 of the GCL, as amended from time to time, shall indemnify all persons whom it may indemnify pursuant thereto. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which such officer or director may be entitled to indemnification hereunder shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized hereby.

C. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article Seventh, no indemnification nor advancement of expenses will extend to any claims made by the Corporation’s officers and directors to cover any loss that such individuals may sustain as a result of such individuals’ agreement to pay debts and obligations to target businesses or vendors or other entities that are owed money by the Corporation for services rendered or contracted for or products sold to the Corporation, as described in the Registration Statement.

EIGHTH:

A. Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation, its directors, officers or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the GCL or this Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation, its directors, officers or employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine, except for, as to each of subclauses (i) through (iv) in paragraph A of this Article Eighth, (a) any claim as to which the Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery, or for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction, and (b) any action or claim arising under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

E-3

B. If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of Paragraph A of this Article Eighth is filed in a court other than a court located within the State of Delaware (a “Foreign Action”) in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce Paragraph A of this Article Eighth immediately above (an “FSC Enforcement Action”) and (ii) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such FSC Enforcement Action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.

C. If any provision or provisions of this Article Eighth shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any person or entity or circumstance for any reason whatsoever, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article Eighth (including, without limitation, each portion of any sentence of this Article Eighth containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) and the application of such provision to other persons or entities and circumstances shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article Eighth.

NINTH: Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between this Corporation and its creditors or any class of them and/or between this Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of this Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under Section 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under Section 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as the said court directs. If a majority in number representing three fourths in value of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of this Corporation as a consequence of such compromise or arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and the said reorganization shall, if sanctioned by the court to which the said application has been made, be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders, of this Corporation, as the case may be, and also on this Corporation.
