“Reporting Person” and collectively as the “Reporting Persons.”
Yuan exercises voting and dispositive control
over the Ordinary Shares and Preferred Shares registered in the name of ZunTian and iTeam. The Reporting Persons are making this single,
joint filing because they may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities

Shares owned by any person other than such Reporting Person except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein.
The principal business address of each Reporting
Person is c/o Xiao-I Corporation, 5/F, Building 2, No. 2570 Hechuan Road, Minhang District, Shanghai, China 201101.
None of the Reporting Persons has, during the
past five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors). None of the
Reporting Persons has, during the past five years, been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent
jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of,
or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Preferred Shares, each with a par value of US$0.00005 and carrying a voting right equivalent to 20 votes, to ZunTian Holding Limited (the

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Each Reporting Person acquired all of their Ordinary Shares and Preferred
Shares for investment purposes.
Yuan is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer and a member
of the Issuer’s Board of Directors. In these capacities, Yuan takes and will continue to take an active role in the Issuer’s
management and strategic direction. Additionally, in their capacities as stockholders of the Issuer, the Reporting Persons review and
intend to continue to review, on an ongoing and continued basis, their investments in the Issuer. Depending on the factors discussed below
and subject to applicable law, any Reporting Person may from time to time acquire additional securities of the Issuer or otherwise dispose
of some or all of such securities of the Issuer. Any transactions that any Reporting Person may pursue may be made at any time and from
time to time without prior notice and will depend upon a variety of factors, including, without limitation, current and anticipated future
trading prices of the securities of the Issuer, the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Issuer, general economic,
financial market and industry conditions, other investment and business opportunities available to such Reporting Person, tax considerations
and other factors.
Other than as described
above and other than in his capacity as an officer and director of the Issuer, neither Yuan nor any other Reporting Person currently has
plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the transactions involving the Issuer described in subparagraphs (a) through
(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D (although either Reporting Person may from time to time consider pursuing or proposing any such transactions
and, in that connection, may discuss, evaluate and/or pursue any such transactions with their respective advisors, the Issuer or other
persons).

in the Issuer’s 6-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 14, the shares beneficially owned by ZunTian,
iTeam, and Yuan Hui constitute approximately 20.46%, 4.64%, and 25.10%, respectively, of the outstanding share capital of the Issuer,
as calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1). Each Preferred Share is entitled to voting power equal to 20 Ordinary Shares; as a
