(i) Existing AARK Shares. All AARK Ordinary Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time shall remain issued and outstanding following the Amalgamation Effective Time and represent Equity Securities of the Amalgamated Entity equal to the Sole Shareholder’s Pro Rata Portion of all issued and outstanding AARK Fully Diluted Ordinary Shares.

(ii) Amalgamation Sub Shares. All of the shares of Amalgamation Sub that are issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time shall be automatically converted pursuant to the Amalgamation into a number of AARK Ordinary Shares equal to Parent’s Pro Rata Portion of the AARK Fully Diluted Ordinary Shares.

(iii) AARK Treasury Shares. Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a)(i) or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if there are any AARK Shares that are owned by AARK as treasury shares or any AARK Shares owned by any direct or indirect subsidiary of AARK immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time, such AARK Shares shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist without any conversion thereof or payment or other consideration therefor.

(b) Immediately following the Amalgamation Effective Time:

(i) Eligible Parent Shares. Parent shall issue to each holder of an Eligible Parent Share, a number of newly issued Parent Class A Ordinary Shares equal to (A) Aggregate Bonus Shares, divided by (B) the aggregate number of Eligible Parent Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time, subject to rounding pursuant to Section 3.1(c).

22

(ii) Parent Class V Ordinary Share. Pursuant to the Parent A&R Articles, Parent shall issue to the Parent Class V Ordinary Share Holder one Parent Class V Ordinary Share with voting rights equal to such number of votes per share representing, at all times while such Parent Class V Ordinary Share remains outstanding, 26.0% of the total issued and outstanding Parent Class A Ordinary Shares (after giving effect to such issuance) and Parent Class V Ordinary Share, voting together as a class, for cash per share equal to the par value of such Parent Class V Ordinary Share.

Pursuant to the terms of the Parent A&R Articles, upon the exchange of any AARK Ordinary Shares for Parent Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (collectively, the “Converted Shares”), the voting power of the Parent Class V Ordinary Share shall be reduced in proportion to the AARK Ordinary Shares exchanged to that of the AARK Ordinary Shares held by the Sole Shareholder on Closing (the “Proportionate Reduction”) provided, however, such Proportionate Reduction will not, in any way, affect the voting rights of the Parent Class V Ordinary Share in the event of (i) a threatened or actual Hostile Change of Control, noting that a Hostile Change of Control shall be deemed to be “threatened”, without limitation, when a Person or group acquires, directly or indirectly, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, more than 5% of the votes attached to all Parent Ordinary Shares, other than the Parent Class V Ordinary Share, announces publicly an interest in taking over, partly or wholly, the management control of Parent or seeks a seat on the Parent Board when such candidacy is not endorsed by existing members of the Parent Board, and/or (ii) the appointment and removal of a director on the Parent Board, in case of both of which shall it stay at 51%.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no fraction of a Parent Share will be issued by virtue of the Transactions, and each Person who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a Parent Share (after aggregating all fractional Parent Shares that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall instead have the number of Parent Shares issued to such Person rounded down in the aggregate to the nearest whole Parent Share.

The Trust Agreement is valid and in full force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms and has not been amended or modified. There are no separate Contracts, side letters or other arrangements or understandings (whether written or unwritten, express or implied) that would cause the description of the Trust Agreement in the Parent SEC Filings to be inaccurate or that would entitle any Person (other than shareholders of Parent holding Parent Ordinary Shares initially sold in Parent’s initial public offering who shall have elected to redeem their Parent Ordinary Shares pursuant to Parent’s Governing Documents) to any portion of the proceeds in the Trust Account.

There are no claims or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Parent, threatened with respect to the Trust Account.

As of the Amalgamation Effective Time, the obligations of Parent to dissolve or liquidate pursuant to Parent’s Governing Documents shall terminate, and as of the Amalgamation Effective Time, Parent shall have no obligation whatsoever pursuant to Parent’s Governing Documents to dissolve and liquidate the assets of Parent by reason of the consummation of the Transactions (other than use of the funds in the Trust Account for Parent Share Redemptions). To the knowledge of Parent, as of the date of this Agreement, following the Amalgamation Effective Time, no Parent Shareholder shall be entitled to receive any amount in the Trust Account except to the extent such Parent Shareholder has exercised a Parent Share Redemption. As of the date of this Agreement, assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Group Companies contained herein and the compliance by the Group Companies with their obligations hereunder, Parent does not have any reason to believe that any of the conditions to the use of funds in the Trust Account will not be satisfied or funds available in the Trust Account will not be available to Parent prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time (other than use of the funds in the Trust Account for Parent Share Redemptions).

ARTICLE XII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.1 Trust Account Waiver. AARK, on behalf of itself, the Group Companies and the Sole Shareholder, hereby represents and warrants that it has read the final prospectus of Parent, dated as of October 19, 2021 and filed with the SEC (File No. 333-259801) on October 21, 2021 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, and understands that Parent has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and the overallotment shares acquired by its underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of Parent’s public shareholders (including the public shareholders of the overallotment shares acquired by Parent’s underwriters, the “Public Shareholders”), and that, except as otherwise described in the Prospectus, Parent may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Shareholders with respect to Parent Share Redemptions, (b) to the Public Shareholders if Parent fails to consummate a Business Combination within 18 months after the closing of the IPO, subject to extension by an amendment to Parent’s Governing Documents, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any taxes and up to $100,000 in dissolution expenses or (d) to Parent after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. AARK hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including the other Group Companies and the Sole Shareholder) that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (other than in Section 7.5), neither it nor any of its Affiliates (including the other Group Companies and the Sole Shareholder) do now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) in connection with any claim that arises as a result of, in connection with, or relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability under any Transaction Document (collectively, the “Released Claims”). AARK, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including the other Group Companies and the Sole Shareholder), hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that it or any of its Affiliates (including the other Group Companies and the Sole Shareholder) may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) in connection with any Released Claims (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document).

To the extent AARK or any of its Affiliates (including the other Group Companies and the Sole Shareholder) commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with or relating to any Released Claim, which action or proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against Parent or its Representatives, AARK, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including the other Group Companies and the Sole Shareholder), acknowledges and agrees that its and its Affiliates’ (including the other Group Companies and the Sole

84

Shareholder) sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit AARK or its Affiliates (including the other Group Companies and the Sole Shareholder) (or any person claiming on any of their behalves or in lieu of any of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event AARK or any of its Affiliates (including the other Group Companies and the Sole Shareholder) commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with or relating to any Released Claim, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Shareholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief or otherwise, Parent and its Representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from AARK and its Affiliates (including the other Group Companies and the Sole Shareholder) the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such action, in the event Parent or its Representatives, as applicable, prevails in such action or proceeding.

To the extent that any of the aforementioned withholding Tax amounts are so withheld and paid to the appropriate Tax authorities, such amounts that are withheld and paid to the appropriate Tax authorities, shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to the Exchanging Member in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(d) In the event that any Shareholder is unable to undertake the Exchange due to any restrictions under applicable Law or due to non-receipt of approvals from any regulatory authorities, the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts, within the requirements of applicable Law, to discuss and mutually agree to any Tax efficient mechanism or structure which shall provide the same economic or financial benefit to the Shareholder, assuming that there was no restriction under applicable Law or if appropriate consents were received from the relevant regulatory bodies.

Ltd., a Singapore private company limited by shares and a direct wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent, with company registration number 202300520W (“Amalgamation Sub”), propose to enter into, concurrently herewith, a business combination agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “BCA”; capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the BCA), which provides for, among other things, a business combination between Parent, Amalgamation Sub and the Company;

WHEREAS, Sponsor owns of record the number of shares of Parent as set forth on Exhibit B hereto (all such shares of Parent and any shares of Parent of which ownership of record or the power to vote is hereafter acquired by Sponsor prior to the termination of this Agreement being referred to herein as the “Shares”);

WHEREAS, the parties hereto intend that the Shares set forth on Exhibit B hereto may be used as Extension Transfer Shares, pursuant to the terms set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce AARK to enter into the BCA, Sponsor, Parent and AARK desire to enter into this Agreement.

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

1. Agreement to Vote. Sponsor hereby agrees to vote, at any meeting of the Parent Shareholders, including the Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, and in any action by written consent of the Parent Shareholders, all Shares held by Sponsor at such time in favor of the approval and adoption of the BCA, the other Transaction Documents to which Parent is a party and the Transactions. Sponsor acknowledges receipt and review of a copy of the BCA.

2. Surrender and Cancellation or Transfer of Shares. Sponsor hereby agrees that, subject to consummation of the Amalgamation, 1,500,000 Parent Class B Ordinary Shares held by Sponsor as of immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time, shall be surrendered to Parent for no consideration and cancelled by Parent effective as of the Amalgamation Effective Time (such cancelled shares, the “Cancelled Shares”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sponsor may transfer up to 1,000,000 Parent Class B Ordinary Shares to third parties in connection with seeking approval of a Parent Extension Proposal (the “Extension Transfer Shares”). Such Extension Transfer Shares so transferred shall reduce (one for one) the number of Cancelled Shares. For example, if Sponsor transfers 500,000 Extension Transfer Shares, then the number of Cancelled Shares shall be reduced by 500,000 and shall be 1,000,000.

3. Earnout Shares. Subject to consummation of the Amalgamation, immediately following consummation of the Amalgamation, (i) without prejudice to the right of AARK to terminate the BCA pursuant to Section 11.1(h) thereto, if Parent Available Cash is less than $50.0 million, then at the Amalgamation Effective Time, Sponsor shall surrender to Parent for no consideration 1,500,000 Parent Class A Ordinary Shares issued to Sponsor upon conversion of the Parent Class B Ordinary Shares held by Sponsor in connection with the Amalgamation, and Parent shall cancel such Shares effective as of the Amalgamation Effective Date; and (ii) if Parent Available Cash is $50.0 million or more, then at the Amalgamation Effective Time Sponsor will place 1,500,000 Parent Class A Ordinary Shares issued to Sponsor upon conversion of the Parent Class B Ordinary Shares held by Sponsor in connection with the Amalgamation into escrow (the “Earnout Shares”) to be held in escrow pursuant to an escrow agreement to be mutually agreed upon, by and among Sponsor, Parent, and AARK, and a mutually agreed upon escrow agent. Earnout Shares shall be released from escrow pursuant to such escrow agreement, and delivered to Sponsor upon the satisfaction of the following thresholds (each, a “Triggering Event”):

(a) if at any time from the Amalgamation Effective Time through the date that is the fifth anniversary of the Amalgamation Effective Time the VWAP of Parent Class A Ordinary Shares is greater than or equal to $12.00 over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “$12.00 Tranche”), Sponsor will receive one-third (1/3) of the Earnout Shares, which shall be released within 10 Business Days following such determination;

(b) if at any time from the Amalgamation Effective Time through the date that is the fifth anniversary of the Amalgamation Effective Time the VWAP of Parent Class A Ordinary Shares is greater than or equal to $14.00 over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “$14.00 Tranche”), Sponsor will receive an additional one-third (1/3) of the Earnout Shares, which shall be released within 10 Business Days following such determination; and

(c) if at any time from the Amalgamation Effective Time through the date that is the fifth anniversary of the Amalgamation Effective Time the VWAP of Parent Class A Ordinary Shares is greater than or equal to $16.00 over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “$16.00 Tranche”), Sponsor will receive the final one-third (1/3) of the Earnout Shares, which shall be released within 10 Business Days following such determination.

The price targets in clauses (a) through (c) above shall be equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, combinations, recapitalizations and similar transactions affecting the Parent Class A Ordinary Shares. In the event that there is a Change of Control after the Amalgamation Effective Time and prior to the date that is five years following the Amalgamation Effective Time, the Earnout Shares (to the extent a Triggering Event has not already occurred with respect to any portion of the Earnout Shares) shall be vested and released to Sponsor prior to such Change of Control, such that the holders of the Earnout Shares shall be entitled to receive in such transaction the consideration which would have been issuable to them in that transaction (including the right to elect to receive different forms of consideration) if they had held the Earnout Shares immediately prior to the consummation thereof. For purposes hereof, “VWAP” means, for any security as of any date(s), the dollar volume-weighted average price for such security on the principal securities exchange or securities market on which such security is then traded during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York time, and ending at 4:00:00

2

p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg through its “HP” function (set to weighted average) or, if the foregoing does not apply, the dollar volume-weighted average price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for such security during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York time, and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no dollar volume-weighted average price is reported for such security by Bloomberg for such hours, the average of the highest closing bid price and the lowest closing ask price of any of the market makers for such security as reported by OTC Markets Group Inc.

If the conditions set forth in either Section 3(a), 3(b), or 3(c) have not been satisfied following the fifth anniversary of the Amalgamation Effective Time, any of the Earnout Shares remaining in the escrow account pursuant to the escrow agreement shall be automatically forfeited and delivered by the escrow agent to Parent for cancellation and Sponsor shall not have any right to receive such Earnout Shares or any benefit therefrom.

4. Exclusivity. Sponsor hereby agrees to cause Parent and Amalgamation Sub to abide by the terms of Section 8.2(b) of the BCA.

5. Transfer of Shares. Sponsor agrees that, except in connection with seeking approval of a Parent Extension Proposal, it shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) sell, assign, transfer (including by operation of law), lien, 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, (b) deposit any Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting Contract 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 or indirect acquisition or sale, assignment, transfer (including by operation of law) or other disposition of any Shares; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit the transfer of the Shares to an Affiliate of Sponsor, but only if such Affiliate of Sponsor shall execute this Agreement or a joinder agreeing to become a party to this Agreement.

6. Representations and Warranties. Sponsor represents and warrants to AARK and Parent as follows:

(a) The execution, delivery and performance by Sponsor of this Agreement and the consummation by Sponsor of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any Law applicable to Sponsor, (ii) require any consent, approval or authorization of, declaration, filing or registration with, or notice to, any Person, (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 applicable, conflict with or result in a breach of or constitute a default under any provision of Sponsor’s Governing Documents.

(b) As of the date of this Agreement, Sponsor owns exclusively of record and has good and valid title to the Shares set forth on Exhibit B 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, other than pursuant to (i) this Agreement, (ii) applicable securities Laws and (iii) Parent’s Governing Documents, and as of the date of this Agreement, Sponsor has the sole power (as currently in effect) to vote and right, power and authority to sell, transfer and deliver such Shares, and Sponsor does not own, directly or indirectly, any other Shares.

3

(c) Sponsor has the power, authority and capacity to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Sponsor.

7. Termination. This Agreement and the obligations of the parties hereto under this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the earliest of: (a) the Amalgamation Effective Time; (b) the valid termination of the BCA in accordance with its terms; and (c) the mutual written agreement of all the parties hereto. Upon termination of this Agreement, no party shall have any further obligations or liabilities under this Agreement; provided, however, such termination shall not relieve any party from liability for a willful and intentional breach of this Agreement occurring prior to its termination.

8. Miscellaneous.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses, provided that such costs and expenses shall be considered to be Parent Transaction Expenses or Group Companies Transaction Expenses, as applicable, and provided further that, at the Amalgamation Effective Time, Parent shall pay, or cause to be paid, such transaction expenses pursuant to Section 10.3 of the BCA.

(b) All general notices, demands or other communications required or permitted to be given or made hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (i) when delivered in person, (ii) on the date sent by email if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next Business Day if sent after normal business hours of the recipient, (iii) on the next Business Day when sent by overnight courier (receipt requested) or (iv) on the second succeeding Business Day when sent by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to the respective parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice):

My name is Daniel Webb and I am the CEO of Worldwide Webb Acquisition Corp. It is my pleasure to introduce the Aeries Technology story and team, as we have announced our intent to bring the company public via SPAC merger.

I laid out eight key criteria for investment and Aeries scores a 10 out of 10 across all criteria.

Bonus shares reduce the implied cost basis for investors that do not redeem. At 85% redemptions or above, the implied cost basis is $4.84. Aeries’ existing shareholders and Management are rolling 100% of their equity into the transaction. We have shown two scenarios here to help potential investors understand their implied cost basis with and without bonus shares.

If you buy or hold WWAC stock and don’t redeem your shares, your effective entry price at closing will be significantly reduced because of bonus shares. 3.75 million bonus shares are set aside to reduce redemptions, raise capital and help ensure we have a successful deSPAC. Bonus shares for non-redemptions will be given tontine-style and held to a fixed effective cost basis when redemptions are above 85%. In a 3.75 million bonus share scenario, for every 3.5 shares you don’t redeem, you would receive 3.75 bonus shares for free. Sponsor promote has been reduced to help fund bonus shares.

On this slide, you can see that Aeries has some incredible numbers. Most tech investors are familiar with the Rule of 40. The Rule of 40 means your growth plus EBITDA margin is higher than 40. Aeries takes that several steps further and, in 2023, is predicted to hit the Rule of 70. We believe this will accelerate to the Rule of 90 in the medium term.

Importantly, in addition to being EBITDA positive, Aeries is cash flow positive, and has been since 2013, the second year of their founding. Aeries also has $51 million in revenue in 2022, and an incredibly low cost structure. Average sales and marketing spend as a percentage of revenue for 2021 and 2022 is just 1.8%, demonstrating an astounding pattern of product-led growth and the success of their deployments.

Now, on the right-hand side of this slide, you see the story of Aeries’ success in a few key numbers. First and foremost, Aeries customers see an approximately 65% average annualized cost savings on talent they hire through Aeries versus hiring that talent locally. The company has over 1,500 experienced, tenured employees across verticals such as software engineering, finance, accounting and IT. Aeries employees love working at Aeries, with only 8% churn since 2020, and a 94% employee satisfaction score, which helps give their services the level of consistency and quality you would expect from a world-class organization.

Now, I would like to turn the call over to Sudhir, CEO of Aeries, to go over the Aeries story in more details.

Sudhir Panikassery

Thank you, Daniel.

My name is Sudhir Panikassery and I’m the Chief Executive Officer of Aeries Technology.

Before Aeries, there were two ways to outsource tech-enabled services, neither of which were ideal, especially for our target end market of private equity firms and their portfolio companies.

The first was to use a legacy outsourcing vendor, which provides the flexibility and labor savings that private equity firms and their portfolio companies were looking for, but have a number of drawbacks, such as a minimal ability to innovate due to a lack of strategic alignment and visibility into internal operations, an “outsider” mentality, and the implementation time of strategic decisions which can be a major roadblock to a successful deployment.

The second approach is to create a subsidiary overseas and “inhouse” the process, which largely solves many of the issues mentioned, but presents its own set of complicated challenges. While this approach succeeds in creating teams aligned with the goal of the company, it is very costly to start and to scale, it creates a litany of tax and regulatory requirements, and it eliminates the unique viewpoint that outside contractors working with multiple companies bring.

Aeries solves these problems with our unique approach, in which our operations are fully integrated into the business of clients. Our customers use our services to get top talent in India and across the world into all areas of their organization, including software development, IT, cybersecurity, finance, HR, customer service and operations. Our customers will interview and hire candidates we source, set the pay and bonus structure for the candidates in active guidance and collaboration with us, and treat them as if they are their own employees once they are hired. Our talent becomes an extension of our clients’ team, with opportunity for promotion, recognition and career path progression, resulting in higher employee satisfaction and lower attrition. We manage the regulatory, tax, recruiting, compliances, administrative, IT

and legal for the outsourced talent. This disruptive business model delivers overall cost and operational efficiencies, with the ability to deliver digital transformation solutions tailor-made for our customers’ growth strategies, coupled with the inherent flexibility the arrangement offers our customers in evolving and implementing their strategies effectively.

This purpose-built business model creates a more flexible, more specialized and less expensive labor pool for our customers. It creates significant innovation through strategic alignment at senior levels and visibility across the organization. It insulates our clients from regulatory and tax issues. It provides flexibility in scaling teams up or down as per changing business needs. It delivers best practices, with visibility to winning playbooks from multiple companies and eliminates the deficiencies of the traditional outsourcing and offshoring models.

Our process features best-in-class process standardization, communication, software and compliance protocols to ensure that the progress being made by our teams is both perfectly executed and well defined for our clients. By utilizing proven business and implementation plans, tried and true software and automation support, and the highest level of data integrity and compliance policies, we can ensure consistent, quality results across our deployments and deliver value to leadership teams. Many of these are vertical-specific and internally developed by our highly specialized teams, created from many years of problem solving and implementation experience.

Now, let’s look at how typically we engage with our clients under this purpose-built model. This slide serves as an excellent visualization of the typical lifecycle of one of our deals.

When we first engage with a client, our team spends a considerable amount of time initially in the consulting phase, gathering requirements, assessing existing infrastructure, processes and workflows, and determining the overall scope, and, hence, to discuss and recommend the best options to the client. This paves the way for us to start identifying and hiring the right Aeries team members to handle the initial deployment.

At around the fourth month mark, we begin implementing the solutions we identified in the consulting phase. Since, in many cases, our clients are newly acquired portfolio companies, there are multiple areas to build out, such as software development, IT, finance and operations. The immediate effect of quickly scaling up these teams has a positive impact on both the bottom line and top line for the new company, which is demonstrable to the leadership team, portfolio company or their private equity sponsor.    

It is this immediate and demonstrable change that gives the client the comfort and confidence in Aeries’ capabilities, giving the client’s Management Team the confidence to leverage the power of the purpose-built model within the rest of the organization.    

Our software, AI and Digital Solutions teams are layered in during Stage 3.

During Stage 4, we cross-sell these capabilities into additional verticals in the organization, as well as with additional portfolio companies, when applicable.

We become integral to our clients’ operations and have an average annual contract value of slightly over $2 million.

This diagram illustrates the flywheel effect of the Aeries model. The key element here is aligned teams, the unique engagement model that we call “purpose-built” that results in teams that are significantly more aligned to the client operations than what you would see in a traditional outsourcing vendor model.

1-888-562-0262 1-604-929-1352 www.viavid.com

This then creates two effects: the perception of the client towards the team improves as they see their team as more aligned to them than as a vendor; and also, just as importantly, the behavior of the Aeries team towards the client is also significantly improved since they are no longer behaving like a traditional vendor, thus leading to better teams.

This, in turn, leads into the team being able to execute innovation in the form of automations, process efficiencies and digital transformations, that, once again, a typical SLA-based vendor model would not do as part of their pre-defined operational scope.

The sum effect of both better teams and innovation is improved customer experience. This improved experience for the customer then further reinforces the alignment between the customer and their dedicated Aeries teams, and the value cycle continues.

The business value impact of this self-reinforcing cycle, shown by the outer circle, is superior value creation for the client, as well as lower cost, and thereby improved margins and efficiency of operations. This successful model then creates a network effect, first, as an example, across the portfolio of the private equity firm, and then further. As key decision-makers of the client, as well as the PE firm, move to newer companies and PE firms, Aeries is invited to replicate the same success model at these new companies and firms.

This flywheel effect has allowed Aeries to grow rapidly in recent times at much lower cost of customer acquisition, as the multiplier effect of the network effect starts to accelerate growth.

Now, to talk more about our growth strategy, I would like to introduce Ajay Khare, Chief Operating Officer of Aeries Technology.

Ajay Khare

Thank you, Sudhir, and thanks, everyone, for joining us today.

Aeries scaled from a single PE partner back in 2012, to 10 PE partner engagements and 28 company clients today, with no dedicated Sales & Marketing Team. This growth has happened almost exclusively through word-of-mouth and referrals. That is also the reason in our earlier slide, you see that our average sales and marketing costs as a percentage of our revenue is at an unheard of metric of 1.8%.

So, how did we manage to grow? We attribute it to the purpose-built model. The outcomes it delivers and the trust and confidence it builds in our stakeholders and leadership teams translate to the highest levels of customer satisfaction in the industry, with NPS of 93 and customer satisfaction of 91%. As you know, when you have satisfied customers, chances of referrals are high. In the tight-knit business community including the PE eco-system, referrals will open doors very quickly and at the highest levels. Therefore, we leverage the high customer satisfaction level that is the byproduct of the purpose-built model to create a network effect within the Executive Leadership and PE community for ourselves. So, every time a company is bought or sold, you have Management Teams that are skipping from one company to another, and often they are bringing Aeries with them, amplifying the network effect even further.

Next, I wanted to briefly discuss the large TAM we at Aeries are attacking.

When thinking about the addressable market from the bottom up-view, we estimate about $420 billion in potential revenue, which was arrived at by multiplying the total number of PE portfolio companies and mid-market companies times our average contract value of $2.1 million. From a top-down view, we see from various market research reports that the IT Business Services spend in the U.S., a sliver of the total U.S. IT, works out to be roughly $500 billion, which is in line with our bottom-up calculation. Either way you decide to look at our opportunity, it positions Aeries to potentially catering to tens of thousands of clients just in North America.

Here are some strategies on how we aim to grow:

Now, I would turn the call over back to Sudhir to discuss our unit economics and growth drivers. Sudhir?

Sudhir Panikassery

Thank you, Ajay.

Aeries has an incredible LTV to CAC, part of which is due to our incredibly low S&M spend, as previously mentioned, and our very high level of business referrals through the flywheel effect. In 2021, our customers generated $1.7 million of lifetime value versus just $170,000 in customer acquisition cost, resulting in a remarkable 10.1x LTV to CAC ratio. In 2022, we generated $2.3 million in customer lifetime value at just $140,000 in customer acquisition cost, giving Aeries a 15.9x LTV to CAC ratio. These are truly incredible numbers and demonstrate the power of our customer acquisition model.

As you can see on the left-hand side of this slide, we achieved an excellent growth trajectory of 32% year-over-year for calendar year 2022. From 2022 to 2024, we are predicting a 60% CAGR, which will bring us to approximately $131 million in top line. There are a number of factors that give us confidence in these numbers and some underlying assumptions, including the diversification of our private equity relationships, the high visibility into our land-and-expand sales model, new technology products to augment our current offerings, the expansion into other verticals as we expand our employee base to focus on areas outside of technology and business process management. The successful execution of our inorganic growth strategy gives additional upside to our forecast.

We will also see a corresponding growth in our EBITDA as we continue to focus on the profitability of Aeries. We see EBITDA margin expanding from our 2022 calendar year estimate of 16% to around 28% by 2024. This will largely be a function of leverage from increased top line revenue as we continue to invest in and scale the business in order to ensure we have the staff and tools needed to properly service our customers in the Aeries Way.

And now, I would like to pass the call back to Daniel to go over the team and competitive valuation of Aeries. Daniel?

Thanks, Sudhir.

Let me spend some time talking about the incredible Management Team, who have a clear vision and prior public company experience.

Raman Kumar, the Chairman and Managing Director of Aeries, is an eminently accomplished entrepreneur who formerly founded and took public the Nasdaq listed MModal, which sold for $1.1 billion to One Equity Partners.

Sudhir, CEO, has over 30 years of business experience across the auditing, consulting and M&A verticals.

Unni, CTO, has almost 30 years building enterprise, cloud and mobility products across a number of different verticals.

And Ajay, CRO and COO, has a proven track record of business operations experience and building relationships with clients.

Together, they have almost twenty years working together, which means they are aligned on their goals, they know their roles and objectives, and are laser-focused on building Aeries the same way they have built a number of other successful businesses. They have incubated businesses and created substantial value across multiple verticals through a tech-enabled approach, and I believe Aeries has the ability to become a world-class business, like some of their prior businesses they have built together.

Now, let’s go over the estimates and valuation.

Aeries is priced at a discount to peers, despite having significantly higher growth and margins.

Bonus shares effectively lower the purchase price. Assuming 85% redemptions and 3.75 million bonus shares, the entry multiple is 5.3 times 2024 EBITDA, which is a significant discount to the comps. When you consider the higher growth and margin Aeries expects versus the comps, the discount is even larger.

On slide 21, you can see a regression analysis of Aeries versus the peer set. As you can see, based on 2024 estimated revenue growth plus EBITDA, when you apply the regression of the comps to Aeries, Aeries implies a 47 times 2024 EBITDA multiple, which gives an implied valuation of $1.74 billion, and keep in mind the enterprise value for the transaction is $391 million without bonus shares and $196 million with 3.75 million bonus shares and 85% redemptions, which represents a substantial 78% discount and 89% discount to implied value, respectively. We have priced the transaction this way to provide a significant margin of safety to any investor the buys or holds WWAC shares through the close of the deSPAC. We expect that Aeries will grow into its implied value over time as a public company and generate significant returns to all shareholders and stakeholders.

On behalf of both the Worldwide Webb and Aeries teams, we want to thank you for your time and attention today. For more information or time with our Management Team, please reach out to our contacts as listed on the Worldwide Webb Investor Relations page. Thank you.

In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “seeks,” “predicts,” “intends,” “trends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties.

Certain statements in this presentation concerning our future growth prospects, financial expectations and plans for navigating the COVID-19 impact on our employees, clients and stakeholders are forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the ‘safe harbor’ under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties relating to these statements include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties regarding COVID-19 and the effects of government and other measures seeking to contain its spread, risks related to an economic downturn or recession in India, the United States and other countries around the world, changes in political, business, and economic conditions, fluctuations in earnings, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, our ability to manage growth, intense competition in IT services including those factors which may affect our cost advantage, wage increases in India, our ability to attract and retain highly skilled professionals, time and cost overruns on fixed-price, fixed-time frame contracts, client concentration, restrictions on immigration, industry segment concentration, our ability to manage our international operations, reduced demand for technology in our key focus areas, disruptions in telecommunication networks or system failures, our ability to successfully complete and integrate potential acquisitions, liability for damages on our service contracts, the success of the companies in which has made strategic investments, withdrawal or expiration of governmental fiscal incentives, political instability and regional conflicts, legal restrictions on raising capital or acquiring companies outside India, unauthorized use of our intellectual property and general economic conditions affecting our industry and the outcome of pending litigation and government investigation.

Aeries may, from time to time, make additional written and oral forward-looking statements, including statements contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and our reports to shareholders. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of the Company unless it is required by law.

This presentation includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), including Net Income, Net Income Margin, Earnings Per Share, EBITDA, and EBITDA Margin, which are used by management in making operating decisions, allocating financial resources, and internal planning and forecasting, and for business strategy purposes, have certain limitations, and should not be construed as alternatives to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures as defined by us may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures presented by other companies. Our presentation of such measures, which may include adjustments to exclude unusual or non-recurring items, should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by other unusual or non-recurring items. Because GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis are not accessible, and reconciling information is not available without unreasonable effort, we have not provided reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP measures. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

This presentation includes market and industry data and forecasts that we have derived from independent consultant reports, publicly available information, various industry publications, other published industry sources and our internal data and estimates. Independent consultant reports, industry publications and other published industry sources generally indicate that the information contained therein was obtained from sources believed to be reliable.

Certain market, ranking and industry data included elsewhere in this presentation, including the size of certain markets and our size or position and the positions of our competitors within these markets, including our services relative to our competitors, are based on estimates of our management. These estimates have been derived from our management’s knowledge and experience in the markets in which we operate, as well as information obtained from surveys, reports by market research firms, our clients, suppliers, trade and business organizations and other contacts in the markets in which we operate and have not been verified by independent sources. References herein to our being a leader in a market or product category refer to our belief that we

have a leading market share position in each specified market, unless the context otherwise requires. As there are no publicly available sources supporting this belief, it is based solely on our internal analysis of our sales as compared to our estimates of sales of our competitors. In addition, the discussion herein regarding our various end markets is based on how we define the end markets for our products, which products may be either part of larger overall end markets or end markets that include other types of products and services.
