There can be no assurance that future developments will be those that have been anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those discussed and identified in public filings made with the SEC by the Company and HUB Security and the following:

the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company, HUB Security, the Surviving Company or others following announcement of the Business Combination Agreement and the transaction contemplated therein;

geopolitical risk, including military action and related sanctions, and changes in applicable laws or regulations;

other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the Company’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated October 4, 2021 and the proxy statements filed on December 5, 2022 and December 9, 2022.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should any of the assumptions made by the management of the Company and HUB Security prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements.
