EX-14.1 — CODE OF CONDUCT AND ETHICS

EX-14.1

Filename: ea030520601ex14-1.htm · Sequence: 2

Exhibit 14.1

CODE OF CONDUCT AND ETHICS

1. Introduction

The Board of Directors of NorthStrive Acquisition Corp I.

(the “Board of Directors”) has adopted this code of conduct and ethics (this “Code”),

which is applicable to all directors, officers and employees, to:

● promote honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and

professional relationships;

● promote the full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with, or submits

to, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as well as in other public communications made

by or on behalf of the Company;

● promote compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

● deter wrongdoing; and

● require prompt internal reporting of breaches of, and accountability for adherence to, this Code.

This Code may be amended only by resolution of the Board of Directors.

In this Code, references to the “Company” means NorthStrive Acquisition Corp I.

2. Honest, Ethical and Fair Conduct

Each person owes a duty to the Company to act with integrity.

Integrity requires, among other things, being honest, fair and candid. Deceit, dishonesty and subordinating one’s principles are

inconsistent with integrity. Service to the Company never should be subordinated to personal gain an advantage.

Each person must:

● act with integrity, including being honest and candid while still maintaining the confidentiality of the Company’s information

where required or in the Company’s interests.

● observe all applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations.

● comply with the requirements of applicable accounting and auditing standards, as well as Company policies, in order to maintain a

high standard of accuracy and completeness in the Company’s financial records and other business-related information and data.

● adhere to a high standard of business ethics and not seek a competitive advantage through unlawful or unethical business practices.

● deal fairly with the Company’s customers, suppliers, competitors and employees.

● refrain from taking advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material

facts or any other unfair-dealing practice.

● protect the assets of the Company and ensure their proper use.

● refrain from taking for themselves personally opportunities that are discovered through the use of corporate assets or by using corporate

assets, information or position for general personal gain outside the scope of employment with the Company.

● disclose conflicts of interest and only enter into “related-party transactions” under guidelines

or resolutions approved by the Board of Directors (or the appropriate committee of the Board of Directors). For purposes of this Code,

“related-party transactions” are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected

to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2)

the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director,

(b) greater than 4% beneficial owner of the Company’s shares of common stock, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred

to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director

or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has

interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a

person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position. Anything that would

be a conflict for a person subject to this Code also will be a conflict if it is related to a member of his or her family or a close relative.

Examples of conflict of interest situations include, but are not limited to, the following:

● any significant ownership interest in any supplier or customer;

● any consulting or employment relationship with any customer, supplier or competitor;

● any outside business activity that detracts from an individual’s ability to devote appropriate time and attention to his or

her responsibilities with the Company;

● the receipt of any money, non-nominal gifts or excessive entertainment from any company with which the Company has current or prospective

business dealings;

● being in the position of supervising, reviewing or having any influence on the job evaluation, pay or benefit of any close relative;

● selling anything to the Company or buying anything from the Company, except on the same terms and conditions as comparable officers

or directors are permitted to so purchase or sell; and

● any other circumstance, event, relationship or situation in which the personal interest of a person subject to this Code interferes

– or even appears to interfere – with the interests of the Company as a whole.

3. Disclosure

The Company strives to ensure that the contents of and the

disclosures in the reports and documents that the Company files with the SEC and other public communications shall be full, fair, accurate,

timely and understandable in accordance with applicable disclosure standards, including standards of materiality, where appropriate. Each

person must:

● not knowingly misrepresent, or cause others to misrepresent, facts about the Company to others, whether

within or outside the Company, including to the Company’s independent auditors, governmental regulators, self-regulating organizations

and other governmental officials, as appropriate; and

● in relation to his or her area of responsibility, properly review and critically analyze proposed disclosure for accuracy and completeness.

In addition to the foregoing, the Chief Executive Officer

and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company and each subsidiary of the Company (or persons performing similar functions), and each

other person that typically is involved in the financial reporting of the Company must familiarize himself or herself with the disclosure

requirements applicable to the Company as well as the business and financial operations of the Company.

Each person must promptly bring to the attention of the

Chairman of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) any information

he or she may have concerning (a) significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal and/or disclosure controls which could

adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data or (b) any fraud, whether or not

material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s financial reporting, disclosures

or internal controls.

2

4. Compliance

It is the Company’s obligation and policy to comply

with all applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations. It is the personal responsibility of each person to adhere to the standards

and restrictions imposed by those laws, rules and regulations, including those relating to accounting and auditing matters.

5. Reporting and Accountability

The Audit Committee of the Company is responsible for applying

this Code to specific situations in which questions are presented to it and has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular

situation. Any person who becomes aware of any existing or potential breach of this Code is required to notify the Chairman of the Audit

Committee promptly. Failure to do so is itself a breach of this Code.

Specifically, each person must:

● notify the Chairman promptly of any existing or potential violation of this Code; and

● not retaliate against any other person for reports of potential violations that are made in good faith.

The Company will follow the following procedures in investigating

and enforcing this Code and in reporting on the Code:

● The Audit Committee will take all appropriate action to investigate any breaches reported to it.

● If the Audit Committee, determines (by majority decision) that a breach has occurred, it will inform the Board of Directors.

● Upon being notified that a breach has occurred, the Board of Directors (by majority decision) will take or authorize such disciplinary

or preventive action as it deems appropriate, after consultation with the Audit Committee and/or counsel, up to and including dismissal

or, in the event of criminal or other serious violations of law, notification of the SEC or other appropriate law enforcement authorities.

No person following the above procedure shall, as a result

of following such procedure, be subject by the Company or any officer or employee thereof to discharge, demotion suspension, threat, harassment

or, in any manner, discrimination against such person in terms and conditions of employment.

6. Waivers and Amendments

Any waiver (as defined below) or an implicit waiver (as

defined below) from a provision of this Code for the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer

or controller, and persons performing similar functions or any amendment (as defined below) to this Code is required to be disclosed in

the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC. A “waiver” means the

approval by the Company’s Board of Directors of a material departure from a provision of the Code. An “implicit waiver”

means the Company’s failure to take action within a reasonable period of time regarding a material departure from a provision of

the Code that has been made known to an executive officer of the Company. An “amendment” means any amendment to this Code

other than minor technical, administrative or other non-substantive amendments hereto.

All persons should note that it is not the Company’s

intention to grant or to permit waivers from the requirements of this Code. The Company expects full compliance with this Code.

7. Other Policies and Procedures

Any other policy or procedure set out by the Company in

writing or made generally known to employees, officers or directors of the Company prior to the date hereof or hereafter are separate

requirements and remain in full force and effect.

8. Inquiries

All inquiries and questions in relation to this Code or

its applicability to particular people or situations should be addressed to the Company’s Secretary.

EX-19.1 — INSIDER TRADING COMPLIANCE POLICY

EX-19.1

Filename: ea030520601ex19-1.htm · Sequence: 3

Exhibit 19.1

NORTHSTRIVE ACQUISITION CORP I.

Insider

Trading COMPLIANCE POLICY

NorthStrive Acquisition Corp I., a Cayman Islands

limited company (the “Company”) prohibits:

●

insider trading in the Company’s securities (“Securities”)1; and

●

the unauthorized disclosure of the Company’s confidential information that might enable others to engage in insider trading in the Securities.

The Company adopted this Insider Trading Compliance

Policy (“Policy”) to prevent insider trading. In this Policy, we will discuss how you must comply with the laws against

insider trading to avoid the serious penalties that could accompany a violation. We also seek to fulfill our obligation to educate and

reasonably supervise the activities of employees, officers, directors and consultants who own or trade in the Company’s stock as

part of our corporate compliance program. There are severe civil and criminal penalties associated with violations by you, your colleagues

or the Company under insider trading laws. It is your obligation to review, understand and comply with this Policy. Please take the time

to become familiar with its content. If you have questions about this Policy or your stock ownership or trading, please speak with Michel

Tamer, who has been appointed as the Compliance Officer for this Policy (the “Compliance Officer”).

PART I. OVERVIEW

A.

To Whom does this Policy Apply?

This Policy applies to all of us, i.e., the Company’s

Board of Directors (the “Board”), officers, employees and consultants, as well as our Affiliates (as defined below),

and to multiple methods of trading in the Securities, such as purchases or sales of stock, options or other forms of equity. This Policy

applies not only to you but also to your “Affiliates” (as defined by the securities laws), which include:

●

your spouse, child, parent, significant other or other family member, in each case, living in the same household;

●

all trusts, family partnerships and other types of entities formed for your benefit or for the benefit of a member of your family over which you have the ability to influence or direct investment decisions concerning securities;

●

all persons who execute trades on your behalf, e.g., your stockbroker; and

●

all investment funds, trusts, retirement plans, partnerships, corporations and other types of entities for which you have the ability to influence or direct investment decisions concerning securities. Please note that the Insider Trading Procedures (as defined below) do not apply to entities that engage in the investment of securities in the ordinary course of its business (e.g., mutual funds, an investment fund or partnership) if such entity has established its own insider trading controls and procedures in compliance with applicable securities laws and an Insider has hereby represented to the Company that such Insider’s affiliated entities: (a) engage in the investment of securities in the ordinary course of their respective businesses; (b) have established insider trading controls and procedures in compliance with applicable securities laws; and (c) are aware such securities laws prohibit any person or entity who has material, nonpublic information concerning the Company from purchasing or selling securities of the Company or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell securities.

1 The law defines “securities”

broadly to include common stock, options to purchase common stock, any other type of securities that the Company may issue (such as preferred

stock, convertible debentures, warrants, exchange-traded options or other derivative securities), and any derivative securities that

provide the economic equivalent of ownership of any of the Company’s securities or an opportunity, direct or indirect, to profit

from any change in the value of the Company’s securities.

You are responsible for ensuring compliance with

this Policy, including the Insider Trading Procedures contained herein, by all of your Affiliates. We recommend you obtain advice from

your legal and financial advisors regarding trading in Company Securities by your Affiliates.

Special Procedures for Persons with Regular

Access to Inside Information:

Members of our Board and our executive officers

are deemed to have access to all “inside information” under insider trading laws. Other officers, employees and consultants

may also require regular access to “inside information” in performing their work. For this reason and for their protection,

additional trading procedures apply to these directors, officers, employees and consultants. We will notify all members of the Board,

officers and designated employees and consultants (collectively, and solely for the purpose of this Policy, “Insiders”)

that they are subject to these additional trading procedures (“Insider Trading Procedures”), which are set forth in

Part II of this Policy. All Insiders must comply with these Insider Trading Procedures.

These Insider Trading Procedures establish trading

blackout period restrictions, trading window periods, and pre-clearance requirements. Insiders covered by the Insider Trading Procedures

will be restricted from trading in the Securities during blackout periods. Additionally, Insiders covered by the Insider Trading Procedures

will be required to pre-clear all transactions involving the Securities. You will be notified if you are an Insider and required to comply

with the Insider Trading Procedures.

Post-Termination Responsibilities:

In the event that you leave the Company for any

reason, this Policy, including, if applicable, the Insider Trading Procedures, will continue to apply to you and your Affiliates until

the completion of one full Trading Day (as defined below) after any material nonpublic information known to you has become public or is

no longer material. As used in this Policy, the term “Trading Day” shall mean a day on which the primary national securities

exchange or exchanges and/or over-the-counter market or markets on which Securities of the Company are listed or traded are open for trading.

B.

What is Prohibited by this Policy?

It is generally illegal for you to trade in the

Securities of the Company, whether for your account or for the account of another, while in the possession of material, nonpublic information

about the Company or its business activities. It is also generally illegal for you to disclose material, nonpublic information about the

Company or its business to others who may trade on the basis of that information. In addition, if we receive material, non-public information

from collaborators or from other companies that do business with the Company, then these same prohibitions would apply to trading in the

securities of these other companies’ securities. These illegal activities are commonly referred to as “insider trading.”

When you are in possession of material, nonpublic

information about the Company, whether positive or negative, you are prohibited from the following activities:

●

trading (whether for your account of for the account of another) in Securities, except for trades made in compliance with a valid Rule 10b5-1 trading plan2;

●

giving trading advice of any kind about the Company; and

●

disclosing such material, nonpublic information about the Company, whether positive or negative, to anyone else (commonly known as “tipping”).

2 Under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange

Act, you are permitted to enter a written binding plan with your stock broker to trade in the Securities before you knew or had possession

of material, nonpublic information and certain other conditions are satisfied.

2

The Policy prohibitions on insider trading do

not apply to:

(1)

an exercise of an employee stock option when payment of the exercise price is made solely in cash to the Company; or

(2)

the withholding by the Company of shares of stock upon vesting of restricted stock or upon settlement of restricted stock units to satisfy applicable tax withholding requirements if (a) such withholding is required by the applicable plan or award agreement or (b) the election to exercise such tax withholding right was made by the Insider in compliance with the Insider Trading Procedures.

The Policy prohibitions on insider trading do

apply to:

(1)

the sale of Securities on or after the exercise of an employee stock option;

(2)

the use of outstanding Securities to pay part or all of the exercise price of an option; and

(3)

any sale of stock as part of a broker-assisted cashless exercise of an option or any other market sale for the purpose of generating the cash needed to pay the exercise price of an option.

The above discussion is a summary; please read

further below for additional details on the precise circumstances under which this Policy applies. These prohibitions continue whenever

and for as long as you know or are in possession of material, nonpublic information. Remember, anyone scrutinizing your transactions will

be doing so after the fact, with the benefit of hindsight, and often with access to stock trading records and your communications regarding

the transactions. As a practical matter, before engaging in any transaction, you should carefully consider how enforcement authorities

and others might view the transaction in hindsight.

C.

What is Material, Nonpublic Information?

This Policy prohibits you from trading in the

Company’s Securities if you are in possession of information about the Company or its business that is both “material”

and “nonpublic.” If you have a question whether certain information you are aware of is material or has been made public,

you are encouraged to consult with the Compliance Officer.

“Material” Information

Information about the Company is “material”

if it could reasonably be expected to affect the investment or voting decisions of a stockholder or investor. Similarly, information about

the Company is “material” if its disclosure could reasonably be expected to significantly alter the total mix of information

in the marketplace about the Company and affect investor views. In simple terms, material information is any type of information that

could reasonably be expected to affect the price of the Securities. Both positive and negative information may be material. While it is

not possible to identify all information that would be deemed “material,” the following items are types of information that

should be considered carefully to determine whether they are material:

●

program developments, regulatory or clinical status or updates, including communications with regulatory authorities, prior to issuance of a press release or public update;

●

significant developments regarding collaborations, products, customers, suppliers, orders, contracts or financing sources (e.g., the acquisition or loss of a contract);

3

●

potential collaboration discussions or information about an unannounced new collaboration, financing or other similar deals;

●

projections of future earnings or losses, or other earnings guidance;

●

earnings or revenue that are inconsistent with the consensus expectations of the investment community;

●

potential restatements of the Company’s financial statements, changes in auditors or auditor notification that the Company may no longer rely on an auditor’s audit report;

●

pending or proposed corporate mergers, acquisitions, tender offers, joint ventures or dispositions of significant assets;

●

changes in senior management or the Board;

●

significant actual or threatened litigation or governmental investigations or major developments in such matters;

●

a cybersecurity incident;

●

changes in dividend policy, declarations of stock splits, or public or private sales of additional securities;

●

potential defaults under the Company’s credit agreements or indentures, or the existence of material liquidity deficiencies; and

●

bankruptcies or receiverships.

In some situations, the above events may not be

material and in others, consultation with the Compliance Officer may help you determine that it has been publicly disclosed. In each situation,

you should carefully consider and seek advice to determine their materiality (although some determinations will be reached more easily

than others). For example, some new products or contracts may clearly be material to one company and not to a much larger company with

multiple products; yet that does not mean that all product developments or contracts will be material. This demonstrates, in our view,

why no “bright-line” standard or list of items can adequately address the range of situations that may arise. Furthermore,

the Company cannot create an exclusive list of events and information that have a higher probability of being considered material. You

can look to our public press releases on the Company’s website (www.newerahelium.com) to confirm recent disclosures.

The SEC has stated that there is no fixed quantitative

threshold amount for determining materiality, and that even very small quantitative changes can be qualitatively material if they would

result in a movement in the price of the Securities.

“Nonpublic” Information

Material information is “nonpublic”

when it is not generally available to investors. The rationale is to provide all investors with an equal opportunity to access material

information when making investment decisions. To claim information is “public,” we have to be able to point to some fact that

establishes that the information has become publicly available, such as the filing of a report with the SEC, the distribution of a press

release through a widely disseminated news or wire service, or by other means (such as a pre-announced webcast presentation) that are

reasonably designed to provide broad public access.

4

Information is not considered public at the moment

it is disclosed. Before a person who possesses material, nonpublic information can trade, there also must be adequate time for the market

as a whole to access and absorb the information that has been disclosed. For the purposes of this Policy, information will be considered

public one full Trading Day after the close of the stock market following the Company’s public release of the information.

For example, if the Company announces material,

nonpublic information of which you are aware before trading begins on a Tuesday, the first time you can buy or sell Company Securities

is the opening of the market on Wednesday. However, if the Company announces this material information after trading begins on that Tuesday,

the first time that you can buy or sell Company Securities is the opening of the market on Thursday.

D.

What are the Penalties for Insider Trading and Noncompliance with this Policy?

Both the SEC and the national securities exchanges,

through the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), investigate and are very effective at detecting insider

trading. They have direct access to examine all trades and typically request names of employees and Insiders from Companies following

a public announcement (positive or negative) that impacts a company’s stock price to determine whether suspect insider trading has

occurred. The SEC, together with the U.S. Attorneys, pursue insider trading violations vigorously. For instance, cases have been successfully

prosecuted against trading by employees in foreign accounts, trading by family members and friends, and trading involving only a small

number of shares.

The penalties for violating insider trading or

tipping rules can be severe and include:

●

disgorgement of the profit gained or loss avoided by the trading;

●

payment of the loss suffered by the persons who purchased or sold, as applicable, securities of the same class at prices impacted by the insider trading;

●

payment of criminal penalties of up to $5,000,000;

●

payment of civil penalties of up to three times the profit made or loss avoided; and

●

imprisonment for up to 20 years.

The Company and/or the supervisors of the person

engaged in insider trading may also be required to pay civil penalties of up to the greater of $1,525,000 or three times the profit made

or loss avoided, as well as criminal penalties of up to $25,000,000, and could under certain circumstances be subject to private lawsuits.

Violation of this Policy or any federal or state

insider trading laws may subject the person violating such policy or laws to disciplinary action by the Company up to and including termination.

The Company reserves the right to determine, in its own discretion and on the basis of the information available to it, whether this Policy

has been violated. The Company may determine that specific conduct violates this Policy, whether or not the conduct also violates the

law. It is not necessary for the Company to await the filing or conclusion of a civil or criminal action against the alleged violator

before taking disciplinary action.

PART II. INSIDER TRADING PROCEDURES FOR INSIDERS

A.

Special Trading Restrictions Applicable to Insiders

In addition to the restrictions on trading in

Company Securities set forth above, Insiders and their Affiliates are subject to the following special trading restrictions:

1.

Prohibited Transactions At Any Time.

●

No Short Sales. No Insider may at any time sell any Securities of the Company that are not owned by such Insider at the time of the sale (a “short sale”).

●

No Purchases or Sales of Derivative Securities or Hedging Transactions. No Insider may buy or sell puts, calls, other derivative securities of the Company or any derivative securities that provide the economic equivalent of ownership of any of the Company’s Securities or an opportunity, direct or indirect, to profit from any change in the value of the Company’s Securities or engage in any other hedging transaction with respect to the Company’s Securities, at any time.

●

No Company Securities Subject to Margin Calls. No Insider may use the Company’s Securities as collateral in a margin account.

●

No Pledges. No Insider may pledge Company Securities as collateral for a loan (or modify an existing pledge).

2.

Gifts.

No Insider may give or make any other transfer

of Company Securities without consideration (e.g., a gift or limited partner distribution, in the case of a fund) during a period when

the Insider is not permitted to trade unless the donee agrees not to sell the shares until such time as the Insider can sell.

3.

Quarterly Blackout Periods

No Insider may trade in any Company’s Securities

during the period commencing on close of business on the fifteenth (15th) calendar day before the end of each fiscal quarter or fiscal

year of the Company and ending at the close of trading on the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date the Company’s financial

results for such quarter or year are publicly disclosed. If, for example, the Company were to make a public announcement or filing of

such results or on a Monday, Insiders shall not trade in the Company’s Securities until the following Friday. During these “blackout

periods,” Insiders may possess or may be presumed to possess material nonpublic information about the Company’s financial

results.

4.

No Trading During Retirement Plan Blackout Periods.

If the Company adopts a policy to allow ownership

of Company stock in any 401(k) or other retirement plan of the Company, then no Insider may trade in any Company Securities, which were

acquired in connection with such Insider’s service or employment with the Company, during a “retirement plan blackout period”

except as specifically permitted below. A “retirement plan blackout period” includes any period of more than three (3) consecutive

Trading Days during which at least fifty percent (50%) of all participants and beneficiaries under all of the individual account plans

maintained by the Company and members of its controlled group are prohibited from trading in Company Securities through their plan accounts.

Insiders will receive advance notice of any such blackout period from the Compliance Officer.

6

5.

Special Blackout Periods

There are times when the Company or certain members

of its Board or senior management or other team members may be aware of a material, nonpublic development. Although an Insider may not

know the specifics of such development, if an Insider engages in a trade before such development is disclosed to the public or resolved,

such Insider and the Company might be exposed to a charge of insider trading that could be costly and difficult to refute. In addition,

a trade by an Insider during such period could result in adverse publicity for the Company.

Therefore, Insiders may not trade in Company Securities

if they are notified that the trading window is closed because of the existence of a material, nonpublic development. The Compliance Officer

will subsequently notify the Insiders once the material nonpublic development is disclosed to the public or resolved and that, as a result,

the trading window is again open. While the Compliance Officer will undertake reasonable efforts to notify the Insiders that material,

nonpublic events have developed, or are soon likely to develop, it is each Insider’s individual duty to ensure that they do not

make any trade in Company Securities when material, nonpublic information exists, regardless of whether such Insider is aware of such

development.

B.

Pre-Clearance Procedures

No Insider may trade in Company Securities unless

the trade has been approved by the Compliance Officer in accordance with the procedures set forth below. The Compliance Officer will review

and either approve or prohibit all proposed trades by Insiders in accordance with the procedures set forth below. The Compliance Officer

may consult with the Company’s other officers and/or outside legal counsel and will receive approval for his/her own trades from

each other.

1.

Procedures. No Insider may trade in Company Securities until:

●

The Insider has notified the Compliance Officer of the amount and nature of the proposed trade(s) using the Stock Transaction Request form attached to this Policy. In order to provide adequate time for the preparation of any required reports under Section 16 of the Securities and Exchange Act, as amended (“Exchange Act”), a Stock Transaction Request form should, if practicable, be received by the Compliance Officer at least two (2) Trading Days prior to the intended trade date;

●

The Insider has certified to the Compliance Officer in writing prior to the proposed trade(s) that the Insider is not in possession of material, nonpublic information concerning the Company;

●

The Insider has informed the Compliance Officer, using the Stock Transaction Request form attached hereto, whether, to the Insider’s best knowledge, (a) the Insider has (or is deemed to have) engaged in any opposite way transactions within the previous six months that were not exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and (b) if the transaction involves a sale by an “affiliate” of the Company or of “restricted securities” (as such terms are defined under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”)), whether the transaction meets all of the applicable conditions of Rule 144; and

●

The Compliance Officer has approved the trade(s) and has certified such approval in writing. Such certification may be made via digitally-signed electronic mail.

The Compliance Officer do not assume the responsibility

for, and approval from the Compliance Officer does not protect the Insider from, the consequences of prohibited insider trading.

2.

Additional Information.

Insiders shall provide to the Compliance Officer

any documentation reasonably requested by him or her in furtherance of the foregoing procedures. Any failure to provide such requested

information will be grounds for denial of approval by the Compliance Officer.

7

3.

No Obligation to Approve Trades.

The existence of the foregoing approval procedures

does not in any way obligate the Compliance Officer to approve any trade requested by an Insider. The Compliance Officer may reject any

trading request at his or her sole discretion.

From time to time, an event may occur that is

material to the Company and is known by only a few directors or executives. Insiders may not trade in Company Securities if they are notified

by the Compliance Officer that a proposed trade has not been cleared because of the existence of a material, nonpublic development. Even

if that particular Insider is not aware of the material, nonpublic development involving the Company, if any Insider engages in a trade

before a material, nonpublic development is disclosed to the public or resolved, the Insider and the Company might be exposed to a charge

of insider trading that could be costly and difficult to refute even if the Insider was unaware of the development. So long as the event

remains material and nonpublic, the Compliance Officer may determine not to approve any transactions in the Company’s Securities.

The Compliance Officer will subsequently notify the Insider once the material, nonpublic development is disclosed to the public or resolved.

If an Insider requests clearance to trade in the Company’s Securities during the pendency of such an event, the Compliance may reject

the trading request without disclosing the reason.

4.

Completion of Trades.

After receiving written clearance to engage in

a trade signed by the Compliance Officer, an Insider must complete the proposed trade within two (2) Trading Days or make a new trading

request.

5.

Post-Trade Reporting.

Any transactions in the Company’s Securities

by an Insider (including transactions effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 Plan) must be reported to the Compliance Officer by completing

the “Confirmation of Transaction” section of the Stock Transaction Request form attached to this Policy on the same day in

which such a transaction occurs. Each report an Insider makes to the Compliance Officer should include the date of the transaction, quantity

of shares, price and broker-dealer through which the transaction was effected. This reporting requirement may be satisfied by sending

(or having such Insider’s broker send) duplicate confirmations of trades to the Compliance Officer if such information is received

by the Compliance Officer on or before the required date. Compliance by directors and executive officers with this provision is imperative

given the requirement of Section 16 of the Exchange Act that these persons generally must report changes in ownership of the Securities

within two business days. The sanctions for noncompliance with this reporting deadline include mandatory disclosure in the Company’s

proxy statement for the next annual meeting of stockholders, as well as possible civil or criminal sanctions for chronic or egregious

violators.

8

PART IV. Exemptions

from Insider Trading Restrictions (all directors, officers, employees and consultants)

A.

Pre-Approved Rule 10b5-1 Plan.

The securities laws permit establishment of trading

plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act that allow for persons to authorize, at a time when they are not in possession of material,

nonpublic information, future trading. Under a compliant 10b5-1 Plan, a trade will not be subject to the Company’s trading windows,

retirement plan blackout periods or pre-clearance procedures, and Insiders are not required to complete a Stock Transaction Request form

for such transactions.

If an Insider intends to trade pursuant to a Rule

10b5-1 Plan, such plan, arrangement or instruction must:

●

satisfy the requirements of Rule 10b5-1;

●

be documented in writing;

●

be established during a trading window when such Insider does not possess material, nonpublic information; and

●

be pre-approved by the Compliance Officer.

Any deviation from, or alteration to, the specifications

of an approved Rule 10b5-1 Plan (including, without limitation, the amount, price or timing of a purchase or sale) must be reported immediately

to the Compliance Officer. Any transaction pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 Plan must be timely reported following the transaction in accordance

with the procedures set forth above.

The Compliance Officer may refuse to approve a

Rule 10b5-1 Plan as he or she deems appropriate including, without limitation, if he or she determines that such plan does not satisfy

the requirements of Rule 10b5-1.

Any modification of an Insider’s prior Rule

10b5-1 Plan requires pre-approval by the Compliance Officer. A modification must occur during a trading window and while such Insider

is not aware of material, nonpublic information.

B.

Employee Benefit Plans.

Exercise of Stock Options. The trading

prohibitions and Insider Trading Procedures do not apply to the exercise of a stock option to purchase securities of the

Company when payment of the exercise price is solely made in cash and the Securities are held, not sold. The trading prohibitions and

Insider Trading Procedures do apply to:

●

the same day or subsequent sale of the Securities acquired on the exercise of a stock option;

●

the use of outstanding Securities to pay part or all of the exercise price of an option;

●

any net option exercise;

●

any exercise of a stock appreciation right;

●

share withholding;

●

any sale of stock as part of a broker-assisted cashless exercise of an option; or

●

any other market sale for the purpose of generating the cash needed to pay the exercise price of an option.

For directors and executive officers subject to

the requirements of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the exercise of an option to purchase securities of the Company (and any subsequent

sale) each triggers the obligation to file a Form 4 within two days. For this reason, Insiders must comply with the post-trade reporting

requirement described in Section C above for any such transaction.

Tax Withholding on Restricted Stock/Units.

The trading prohibitions and restrictions set forth in the Insider Trading Procedures do not apply to the withholding by

the Company of shares of stock upon vesting of restricted stock or upon settlement of restricted stock units to satisfy applicable tax

withholding requirements if (a) such withholding is required by the applicable plan or award agreement or (b) the election to exercise

such tax withholding right was made by the director, officer or employee in compliance with the Insider Trading Procedures.

Retirement Plan. The trading prohibitions

and restrictions set forth in the Insider Trading Procedures do not apply to purchases of Securities in any 401(k) Plan of the Company

(the “Retirement Plan”) resulting from periodic contributions by Insiders to the Retirement Plan pursuant to payroll

deduction elections. Such prohibitions and restrictions do apply, however, to certain elections Insiders may make under the Retirement

Plan, including: (a) an election to increase or decrease the percentage of periodic contributions that will be allocated to the Company

stock fund; (b) an election to make an intra-plan transfer of an existing account balance into or out of the Company stock fund; (c) an

election to borrow money against or receive a distribution from such Insider’s Retirement Plan account if the loan or distribution

will result in a liquidation of some or all of such Insider’s Company stock fund balance; and (d) an election to pre-pay a plan

loan if the pre-payment will result in an allocation of loan proceeds to the Company stock fund.

PART IV. WAIVERS

A waiver of any provision of this Policy, or the

Insider Trading Procedures contained herein, in a specific instance may be authorized in writing by either the Compliance Officer or the

Audit Committee of the Board, and any such waiver shall be reported to the such committee or the Board.

to all salaried employees or providing information that is not customized for a particular company or that is customized based on parameters

that are not developed by the consultant or advisor, and about which the consultant or advisor does not provide advice. The Compensation

including but not limited to non-qualified deferred compensation, fringe benefits and any perquisites, in particular those pertaining

PURPOSE

The purpose of the Audit Committee (the “Audit

Committee”) of the board of directors (the “Board”) of NorthStrive Acquisition Corp I. (the “Company”) is

to oversee the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the Company’s financial statements.

In fulfilling its purpose, the Audit Committee

is responsible for maintaining free and open communication between itself and the independent auditor, internal auditor function and management

of the Company, and for determining that all parties are aware of their responsibilities.

The Audit Committee’s principal responsibility

is one of oversight. Management of the Company is responsible for preparing the Company’s financial statements determining that

they are complete, accurate, and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and establishing satisfactory disclosure

controls and internal control over financial reporting. The independent auditor is responsible for auditing the Company’s financial

statements and the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal and outside

counsel are responsible for assuring compliance with laws and regulations and the Company’s corporate governance policies.

MEMBERSHIP

Size: The Audit Committee shall consist

of three or more members of the Board.

Independence: Each member of the Audit

Committee shall be independent in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10A-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules

of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC. No member of the Audit Committee can have participated in the preparation of the Company’s or any

of its subsidiaries’ financial statements at any time during the past three years.

Financial Expertise: Each member of the

Audit Committee must be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including the Company’s balance sheet, income

statement and cash flow statement. At least one member of the Audit Committee must have past employment experience in finance or accounting,

requisite professional certification in accounting or other comparable experience or background that leads to financial sophistication,

including being or having been a chief executive officer, chief financial officer or other senior officer with financial oversight responsibility.

At least one member of the Audit Committee must be an audit committee financial expert. A person who satisfies this definition of audit

committee financial expert will also be presumed to have financial sophistication.

Overboarding: No member of the Audit Committee

may serve simultaneously on the audit committee of more than three public companies (including the Company’s Audit Committee).

Appointment/Term/Removal: The members of the Audit Committee shall be appointed by the Board

based on recommendations from the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The members of the Audit Committee shall serve for such

term or terms as the Board may determine or until earlier resignation or death. The Board may remove any member from the Audit Committee

at any time with or without cause.

STRUCTURE AND OPERATIONS

Leadership: The Board shall designate a

member of the Audit Committee as the chairperson based on recommendations of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

at least quarterly at such times and places as it deems necessary to fulfill its responsibilities. The agenda and materials for Audit

Committee meetings will be prepared by the Audit Committee chairperson in consultation with the other Audit Committee members, the chief

financial officer, the head of internal audit and the independent auditor. The Audit Committee shall keep minutes of its proceedings and

report regularly to the Board regarding its discussions and actions and shall make recommendations to the Board as appropriate. The Audit

other matters as may be appropriate or requested by the Audit Committee. Outside Advisors: The Audit Committee shall have the

authority, in its sole discretion, to retain and terminate an independent auditor, outside legal counsel and such other advisors as

it deems necessary to fulfill its duties and responsibilities under this Charter. However, the Audit Committee shall not be required

to implement or act consistently with the advice or recommendations of the independent auditor, outside legal counsel or other

advisor, and the authority granted in this Charter shall not affect the ability or obligation of the Audit Committee to exercise its

own judgment in fulfillment of its duties under this Charter. The Audit Committee shall set the compensation and retention terms and

oversee the work of the independent auditor, outside legal counsel or any other advisors. Any communications between the Audit

Committee and its outside legal counsel will be privileged communications.

Funding: The Audit Committee shall receive

appropriate funding from the Company, as determined by the Audit Committee in its capacity as a committee of the Board, for the payment

of compensation to any independent auditor, outside legal counsel and any other advisors, and the ordinary administrative expenses of

the Audit Committee that are necessary or appropriate in carrying out its duties.

Nasdaq Stock Market (the “Nasdaq Rules”), Section 10D and Rule 10D-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the

“Exchange Act”) (“Rule 10D-1”), the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of NorthStrive Acquisition Corp

I., a Cayman Islands limited company (the “Company”), has adopted this Policy for Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation

This Policy shall apply to Incentive-Based Compensation

received on or after the Effective Date. For purposes of this Policy, the date on which Incentive-Based Compensation is “received”

Compensation occurs after the end of that period.

3.0 Recovery of Compensation

If the Company is required to prepare a Restatement,

the Company shall recover, reasonably promptly, the portion of any Incentive-Based Compensation that is Erroneously Awarded Compensation,

unless the Committee has determined that recovery would be Impracticable. Recovery shall be required in accordance with the preceding

sentence regardless of whether the applicable Officer engaged in misconduct or otherwise caused or contributed to the requirement for

the Restatement and regardless of whether or when restated financial statements are filed by the Company. For clarity, the recovery of

Erroneously Awarded Compensation under this Policy will not give rise to any person’s right to voluntarily terminate employment

for “good reason,” or due to a “constructive termination” (or any similar term of like effect) under any plan,

program or policy of or agreement with the Company or any of its affiliates.

4.0 Manner of Recovery; Limitation on Duplicative Recovery

The Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine

by any person subject to this Policy of the Erroneously Awarded Compensation, and, to the extent permitted by law, an offset of the Erroneously

Awarded Compensation against other compensation payable by the Company or an affiliate of the Company to such person. Notwithstanding

the foregoing, unless otherwise prohibited by the Applicable Rules, to the extent this Policy provides for recovery of Erroneously Awarded

Compensation already recovered by the Company pursuant to Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Section 304 or Other Recovery Arrangements, the

amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation already recovered by the Company from the recipient of such Erroneously Awarded Compensation

may be credited to the amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation required to be recovered pursuant to this Policy from such person.

5.0 Administration

This Policy shall be administered, interpreted

and construed by the Committee, which is authorized to make all determinations necessary, appropriate or advisable for such purpose. The

Board may re-vest in itself the authority to administer, interpret and construe this Policy in accordance with applicable law, and in

such event references herein to the “Committee” shall be deemed to be references to the Board. Subject to any permitted review

by the applicable national securities exchange or association pursuant to the Applicable Rules, all determinations and decisions made

by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of this Policy shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the Company

and its affiliates, stockholders and employees. The Committee may delegate administrative duties with respect to this Policy to one or

more directors or employees of the Company, as permitted under applicable law, including any Applicable Rules.

6.0 Interpretation

This Policy will be interpreted and applied in

a manner that is consistent with the requirements of the Applicable Rules, and to the extent this Policy is inconsistent with such Applicable

Rules, it shall be deemed amended to the minimum extent necessary to ensure compliance therewith.

7.0 No Indemnification; No Liability

The Company shall not indemnify or insure any

person against the loss of any Erroneously Awarded Compensation pursuant to this Policy, nor shall the Company directly or indirectly

pay or reimburse any person for any premiums for third-party insurance policies that such person may elect to purchase to fund such person’s

potential obligations under this Policy. None of the Company, an affiliate of the Company or any member of the Committee or the Board

shall have any liability to any person as a result of actions taken under this Policy.

8.0 Application; Enforceability

Except as otherwise determined by the Committee

or the Board, the adoption of this Policy does not limit, and is intended to apply in addition to, any other clawback, recoupment, forfeiture

or similar policies or provisions of the Company or its affiliates, including any such policies or provisions of such effect contained

in any employment agreement, bonus plan, incentive plan, equity-based plan or award agreement thereunder or similar plan, program or agreement

of the Company or an affiliate or required under applicable law (the “Other Recovery Arrangements”). The remedy specified

in this Policy shall not be exclusive and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy at law or in equity that may be available

to the Company or an affiliate of the Company.

9.0 Severability

The provisions in this Policy are intended to

be applied to the fullest extent of the law; provided, however, to the extent that any provision of this Policy is found to be unenforceable

or invalid under any applicable law, such provision will be applied to the maximum extent permitted, and shall automatically be deemed

amended in a manner consistent with its objectives to the extent necessary to conform to any limitations required under applicable law.

10.0 Amendment and Termination

The Board or the Committee may amend, modify or
