Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related


          Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

On December 27, 2021, the management and the Audit Committee of TradeUP Global Corporation (the "Company"), after consultation with Friedman LLP, concluded that the Company's audited balance sheet as of May 3, 2021 filed in the Company's Form 8-K filed on May 7, 2021, and the Company's unaudited financial statements filed in the Company's Form 10-Q as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 contained errors relating to the classification between temporary equity and permanent equity of the shares of the Company's Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption, which the Company initially presented a portion of as permanent equity, and has determined should be classified as temporary equity. In light of these errors, it was determined that it is appropriate to amend and restate the Company's previously issued audited balance sheet as of May 3, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the Company's initial public offering and the private placement that was included in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 7, 2021 and the unaudited financial statements included in the Company's Form 10-Q as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 ("Non-Reliance Financial Statements").

Considering such restatement, the Non-Reliance Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon. The Company will file an amendment to its Form 8-K filed on May 7, 2021 with respect to the audited balance sheet as of May 3, 2021 and an amendment to its Form 10-Q as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 with respect to its unaudited financial statements reflecting the reclassification of shares of the Company's Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption as temporary equity as soon as practicable.

The Company has reflected the corrections described above in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2021, filed with SEC on November 5, 2021. The Company does not expect the changes described above to have any impact on its cash position or the balance held in the trust account.

The Company's management and the Audit Committee have discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to this Item 4.02 with Friedman LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.
