Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including but not limited to, express or implied statements regarding the structure, timing and completion of the proposed merger; the combined company’s listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market after
closing of the proposed merger; expectations regarding the ownership structure of the combined company; the expected executive officers and directors of the combined company; each company’s and the combined company’s expected cash position at the
closing of the proposed merger and cash runway of the combined company; the future operations of the combined company; the nature, strategy and focus of the combined company; the location of the combined company’s corporate headquarters; and other
statements that are not historical fact. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this press release are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date they were first issued, and
were based on the then-current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections, as well as the beliefs and assumptions of management. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which involve factors
or circumstances that are beyond The Company’s control. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those stated or implied in forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including but not limited to (i) the risk that the
conditions to the closing of the proposed merger are not satisfied, including the failure to timely obtain shareholder approval for the transaction, if at all; (ii) uncertainties as to the timing of the consummation of the proposed merger and the
ability of each of the Company and Adomni to consummate the proposed merger; (iii) risks related to the Company’s ability to manage its operating expenses and its expenses associated with the proposed merger pending closing; (iv) risks related to
the failure or delay in obtaining required approvals from any governmental or quasi-governmental entity necessary to consummate the proposed merger; (v) the risk that as a result of adjustments to the exchange ratio, the Company stockholders and
Adomni stockholders could own more or less of the combined company than is currently anticipated; (vi) risks related to the market price of the Company’s stock relative to the exchange ratio; (vii) unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting
from the transaction; (viii) potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed merger; (ix) the uncertainties associated with Adomni’s platform and technologies; (x) risks
related to the inability of the combined company to obtain sufficient additional capital to continue to advance Adomni’s platform and technologies; and (xi) risks associated with the possible failure to realize certain anticipated benefits of the
proposed merger, including with respect to future financial and operating results, among others. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of these risks
and uncertainties. These and other risks and uncertainties are more fully described in periodic filings with the SEC, including the factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” in The Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed
with the SEC on December 21, 2020, and in other filings that the Company makes and will make with the SEC in connection with the proposed merger, including the Proxy Statement described above under “Additional Information about the Proposed Merger
and Where to Find It.” You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are made only as of the date hereof or as of the dates indicated in the forward-looking statements. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation
or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in its expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such
statements are based.
