Forward-Looking
Statements
This
Current Report on Form 8-K and the documents incorporated by reference herein (this “Current Report”) contain certain
“forward-looking statements” within the meaning of “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as: “target,” “believe,” “expect,”
“will,” “shall,” “may,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “would,” “positioned,”
“future,” “forecast,” “intend,” “plan,” “project” and other similar expressions
that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. Examples of forward-looking statements
include, among others, statements made in this Current Report regarding the proposed transactions (the “Merger”) contemplated
by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among HHGC, Purchaser, Perfect Acquisitions Limited (“Merger
Sub”), and PHGL, integration plans, expected synergies and revenue opportunities, anticipated future financial and operating
performance and results, including estimates for growth, the expected management and governance of the combined company and the expected
timing of the Merger. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are
based only on HHGC and PHGL managements’ current beliefs, expectations and assumptions. Because forward-looking statements relate
to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many
of which are outside of our control. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements.
Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results and outcomes
to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: (1) the occurrence
of any event that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted
against HHGC, the combined company, or others following the announcement of the Merger and the Merger Agreement; (3) the inability to
complete the Merger, including due to the failure to obtain approval of HHGC’s shareholders or to satisfy other conditions to closing
in the Merger Agreement; (4) the amount of redemption requests made by HHGC’s shareholders; (5) changes to the proposed structure
of the Merger that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws; (6) the ability to meet Nasdaq listing standards following
the consummation of the Merger; (7) the risk that the Merger disrupts current plans and operations of PHGL as a result of the announcement
and consummation of the Merger; (8) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Merger, which may be affected by, among
other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with third
parties and partners and retain its management and key employees; (9) costs related to the Merger; (10) changes in applicable laws or
regulations; (11) the possibility that PHGL or the combined company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, regulatory,
and/or competitive factors; (12) the availability of capital and PHGL estimates of expenses; (13) changes in the assumptions underlying
PHGL’s expectations regarding its future business or business model; and (14) other risks and uncertainties set forth in the Registration
Statement to be filed by HHGC with the SEC in connection with the Merger, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and
other documents filed or to be filed from time to time with the SEC by HHGC.
A
further list and description of risks and uncertainties can be found in the Form 10-K and in the Registration Statement that will be
filed with the SEC by HHGC in connection with the proposed transaction, and other documents that the parties may file or furnish with
the SEC, which you are encouraged to read. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this Current Report is based only on information
currently available to HHGC and PHGL and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. HHGC and PHGL undertake no obligation to publicly
update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information,
future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.

and correct and not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements

thereto, which information provided by the Parent Parties shall be true and correct and not contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they
are made, not materially misleading.

and regulations promulgated by the SEC, to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as
practicable after such filing and to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate the Merger. Each
of Parent and the Company shall furnish all information concerning it as may reasonably be requested by the other Party in connection
with such actions and the preparation of the Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Promptly after the Registration
Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, Parent will cause the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be mailed to shareholders

to be enforced, and any such waiver shall apply only in the particular instance in which such waiver shall have been given.
(b)
Neither any failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or in requiring satisfaction of any condition herein nor any
course of dealing shall constitute a waiver of or prevent any party from enforcing any right or remedy or from requiring satisfaction
of any condition. No notice to or demand on a party waives or otherwise affects any obligation of that party or impairs any right of
the party giving such notice or making such demand, including any right to take any action without notice or demand not otherwise required
by this Agreement. No exercise of any right or remedy with respect to a breach of this Agreement shall preclude exercise of any other
right or remedy, as appropriate to make the aggrieved party whole with respect to such breach, or subsequent exercise of any right or
remedy with respect to any other breach.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no statement herein of any right or remedy shall impair any other right or remedy stated

Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, neither shall any party seek, nor shall any party be liable for, punitive or exemplary

Arm’s Length Bargaining; No Presumption Against Drafter. This Agreement has been negotiated at arm’s-length
by parties of equal bargaining strength, each represented by counsel or having had but declined the opportunity to be represented by

between the parties, and no such relationship otherwise exists. No presumption in favor of or against any party in the construction or
interpretation of this Agreement or any provision hereof shall be made based upon which Person might have drafted this Agreement or such
provision.

and contemporaneous understandings and agreements related thereto (whether written or oral), all of which are merged herein. No provision
of this Agreement or any Additional Agreement, including any exhibits and schedules attached hereto or thereto, may be explained or qualified
by any agreement, negotiations, understanding, discussion, conduct or course of conduct or by any trade usage. Except as otherwise expressly
stated herein or any Additional Agreement, there is no condition precedent to the effectiveness of any provision hereof or thereof. No
party has relied on any representation from, or warranty or agreement of, any person in entering into this Agreement, prior hereto or
contemporaneous herewith or any Additional Agreement, except those expressly stated herein or therein.

provision, as alike in substance to such invalid provision as is lawful.

a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and, unless the context requires otherwise, “party” means
a party signatory hereto.
(c)
Any use of the singular or plural, or the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender, includes the others, unless the context otherwise requires;
“including” means “including without limitation;” “or” means “and/or;” “any”
means “any one, more than one, or all;” and, unless otherwise specified, any financial or accounting term has the meaning
of the term under United States generally accepted accounting principles as consistently applied heretofore by the Company.
(d)
Unless otherwise specified, any reference to any agreement (including this Agreement), instrument, or other document includes all schedules,

event, the day of such date or event is not counted in determining the last day for such action or notice. If any action is required

(and there shall be no liability after the Closing Date in respect thereof).
13.16
Waiver. Reference is made to the Prospectus of Parent. The Company has read the Prospectus and understand that Parent has
established the Trust Account for the benefit of the public shareholders of Parent, and the underwriters of the IPO pursuant to the Investment
Management Trust Agreement and that, except for a portion of the interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, Parent may
disburse monies from the Trust Account only for the purposes set forth in the Investment Management Trust Agreement. For and in consideration
of Parent agreeing to enter into this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees that it does not have any right, title, interest or claim
of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account and hereby agrees that he, she or it will not seek recourse against the Trust Account
for any claim it may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with Parent. In
the event that the Company or any of its respective Affiliates commences Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising
out of any matter relating to Parent which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions
therefrom) or the public shareholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, Parent shall be entitled to recover
from the Company and its Affiliates, as applicable, the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such Action, in the event
Parent, prevails in such Action. This Section 13.16 shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason and continue indefinitely.
13.17
Legal Representation.
(a)
The parties agree that, notwithstanding the fact that Loeb & Loeb LLP may have, prior to Closing, jointly represented Parent and/or
Merger Sub in connection with this Agreement, the Additional Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and has
also represented Parent and/or its Affiliates in connection with matters other than the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement,
Loeb & Loeb LLP will be permitted in the future, after Closing, to represent Sponsor or its Affiliates in connection with matters
in which such Persons are adverse to Parent or any of its Affiliates, including any disputes arising out of, or related to, this Agreement.
The Company, who is or has the right to be represented by independent counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, hereby agrees, in advance, to waive (and to cause their Affiliates to waive) any actual or potential conflict of interest
that may hereafter arise in connection with Loeb & Loeb LLP’s future representation of one or more of Sponsor or their respective
Affiliates in which the interests of such Person are adverse to the interests of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates,
including any matters that arise out of this Agreement or that are substantially related to this Agreement or to any prior representation
by Loeb & Loeb LLP of Parent, Merger Sub, or any of their respective Affiliates. The parties acknowledge and agree that, for the
purposes of the attorney-client privilege, Sponsor and Parent shall be deemed the clients of Loeb & Loeb LLP with respect to the
negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the Additional Agreements. All such communications shall remain privileged
after the Closing and the privilege and the expectation of client confidence relating thereto shall belong solely to Sponsor and Parent,
shall be controlled by Sponsor and Parent and shall not pass to or be claimed by Parent post-Closing; provided, further, that nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by Parent or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Effective Time) of any applicable
privileges or protections that can or may be asserted to prevent disclosure of any such communications to any third party.
(b)
Each party warrants and represents that (i) it is a sophisticated party represented at all relevant times during the negotiation and
execution of this Agreement by counsel of its choice, and that it has executed this Agreement with the consent and on the advice of such
independent legal counsel; (ii) it and its counsel have determined through independent investigation and robust, arm’s-length negotiation
that the terms of this Agreement shall exclusively embody and govern the subject matter of this Agreement; (iii) it has investigated
the facts pertinent to this Agreement as it deemed necessary; (iv) no other person or party, nor any agent or attorney of a party, made
any promise, representation or warranty whatsoever, express or implied, not contained in this Agreement concerning the subject matter
of this Agreement to induce it to execute this Agreement; (v) it has not executed this Agreement in reliance on any promise, representation
or warranty whatsoever, express or implied, not contained in this Agreement concerning the subject matter of this Agreement; and (vi)
it has not executed this Agreement in reliance on any promise, representation or warranty not contained herein. The parties included
this paragraph to preclude any claim that any party was fraudulently induced to execute this Agreement and to preclude the introduction
of parol evidence to vary, interpret, supplement or contradict the terms of this Agreement.

Meeting, or in any action by written consent of the shareholders, all of the Shares owned as of the record date for such meeting (a)

action or agreement that would (i) impede, frustrate, prevent or nullify any provision of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Reincorporation
Merger or the Acquisition Merger, (ii) result in a breach in any respect of any covenant, representation, warranty or any other obligation
or agreement of Parent, Purchaser or Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement, or (iii) result in any of the conditions set forth in Article
X of the Merger Agreement not being fulfilled, and (e) against any amendment of the organizational documents of Parent or any change

Agreement.

are issued to Shareholder after the date of this Agreement pursuant to any share dividend, share split, recapitalization, reclassification,

(c)
If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy,
all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal
substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination
that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith
to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in
order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
(d)
This Agreement and the Merger Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject
matter hereof. This Agreement shall not be assigned (whether pursuant to a merger, by operation of law or otherwise).
(e)
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or
implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason
of this Agreement.
(f)
This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts executed
in and to be performed in that State without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or
rules would require or permit the application of Laws of another jurisdiction. All actions, suits or proceedings (collectively, “Action”)
arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any federal or state court having jurisdiction
within the State of New York. The parties hereto hereby (i) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of federal or state courts within the
State of New York for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto, and (ii) irrevocably
waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally
to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is
brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereunder
may not be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts.
(g)
The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with
the terms hereof, and accordingly, that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement
or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof in any federal or state court within the State of New York
without proof of actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity as expressly
permitted in this Agreement. Each of the parties further waives (i) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy
at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement to post security or a bond as prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.
(h)
This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission) in one or more counterparts,
and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of
which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
(i)
Each Shareholder shall execute and deliver, or cause to be delivered, such additional documents, and take, or cause to be taken, all
such further actions and do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary (including under applicable Laws), or reasonably requested
by Parent or the Company, to effect the actions and consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
the Merger Agreement (including the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby), in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth therein and herein, as applicable.
(j)
This Agreement may not be amended, changed, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified or terminated, except upon the execution and delivery
of a written agreement executed by Parent, the Company and each Shareholder.
(k)
This Agreement shall not be effective or binding upon Shareholder until such time as the Merger Agreement is executed by each of the
parties thereto.
(l)
If, and as often as, there are any changes in Parent by way of share split, share dividend, combination or reclassification, or through
merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or business combination, or by any other means, equitable adjustment shall be
made to the provisions of this Agreement as may be required so that the rights, privileges, duties and obligations hereunder shall continue
with respect to Shareholder and the Shares as so changed.
(m)
Each of the parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any right it may have to a trial by jury with
respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto
(i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party
would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto
have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual
waivers and certifications in this Paragraph (m).
(n)
Shareholder hereby authorizes Parent and the Company to publish and disclose in any disclosure required by the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission the Shareholder’s identity and beneficial ownership of the Shares and the nature of the Shareholder’s
obligations under this Agreement.

2.
REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
2.1
Demand Registration.
2.1.1
Request for Demand Registration. At any time and from time to time on or after (i) the date that the Parent consummates a Business
Combination with respect to the Private Units (or underlying Ordinary Shares), Over-Allotment Units (or underlying Ordinary Shares) and
Working Capital Loan Securities or (ii) three months prior to the Release Date with respect to all other Registrable Securities, the
holders of a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities, as the case may be, held by the Investors, officers or directors of
the Parent or their affiliates, or the transferees of the Investors, may make a written demand, on no more than two occasions, for registration
under the Securities Act of all or part of their Registrable Securities, as the case may be (a “Demand Registration”).
Any demand for a Demand Registration shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended
method(s) of distribution thereof. The Purchaser will notify, in writing, all holders of Registrable Securities of the demand, with ten
(10) days of the Purchaser’s receipt of such demand, and each holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion
of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the Demand Registration (each such holder including shares of Registrable Securities
in such registration, a “Demanding Holder”) shall so notify the Purchaser within fifteen (15) days after the
receipt by the holder of the notice from the Purchaser. Upon any such request, the Demanding Holders shall be entitled to have their
Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject to Section 2.1.4 and the provisions set forth in Section 3.1.1. The
Purchaser shall not be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of two (2) Demand Registrations under this Section 2.1.1 in respect
of all Registrable Securities.
2.1.2
Effective Registration. A registration will not count as a Demand Registration until the Registration Statement filed with the
Commission with respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective and the Purchaser has complied with all of its obligations
under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective,
the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission
or any other governmental agency or court, the Registration Statement with respect to such Demand Registration will be deemed not to
have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and
(ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders thereafter elect to continue the offering; provided, further, that the Purchaser
shall not be obligated to file a second Registration Statement until a Registration Statement that has been filed is counted as a Demand
Registration or is terminated.
2.1.3
Underwritten Offering pursuant to Demand Registration. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders so elect and such holders
so advise the Purchaser as part of their written demand for a Demand Registration, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant
to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering. In such event, the right of any holder to include its Registrable
Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of
such holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute
their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter
or Underwriters selected for such underwriting by a majority-in-interest of the holders initiating the Demand Registration.
2.1.4
Reduction of Offering in Connection with Demand Registration. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration
that is to be an underwritten offering advises the Purchaser and the Demanding Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of
shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other Ordinary Shares or other securities
which the Purchaser desires to sell and the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written
contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other shareholders of the Purchaser who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar
amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing,
the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable,
the “Maximum Number of Shares”), then the Purchaser shall include in such registration: (i) first, the Registrable
Securities as to which Demand Registration has been requested by the Demanding Holders (pro rata in accordance with the number of shares
that each such Person has requested be included in such registration, regardless of the number of shares held by each such Person (such
proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) second,
to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Ordinary Shares or other securities
that the Purchaser desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (iii) third, to the extent that
the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Ordinary Shares or other securities for
the account of other persons that the Purchaser is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons
and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.
2.1.5
Withdrawal. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwriting or are not entitled
to include all of their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw
from such offering by giving written notice to the Purchaser and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. If the majority-in-interest
of the Demanding Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration, then such registration shall not count
as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.1. Notwithstanding the forgoing, a Holder may withdraw all or any portion of its Registrable
Securities included in a Demand Registration from such Demand Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Registration
Statement; provided that such withdrawal shall be irrevocable and, after making such withdrawal, a Holder shall no longer have
any right to include Registrable Securities in the Demand Registration as to which such withdrawal was made. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Agreement, the Purchaser shall be responsible for the registration expenses described in Section 3.3 incurred
in connection with a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration or an Underwritten Offering prior to its withdrawal under this Section
2.1.5..
2.2
Piggy-Back Registration.
2.2.1
Piggy-Back Rights. If at any time on or after the date the Parent consummates a Business Combination the Purchaser proposes to
file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations
exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by the Purchaser for its own account or for shareholders of
the Purchaser for their account (or by the Purchaser and by shareholders of the Purchaser including, without limitation, pursuant to
Section 2.1), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii)
for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Purchaser’s existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt
that is convertible into equity securities of the Purchaser or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Purchaser shall (x) give
written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten
(10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering,
the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and
(y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Registrable
Securities as such holders may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration”).
The Purchaser shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the
managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included
in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Purchaser and to permit the sale or other
disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable
Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall
enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back Registration.
2.2.2
Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an underwritten
offering advises the Purchaser and the holders of Registrable Securities in writing that the dollar amount or number of Ordinary Shares
which the Purchaser desires to sell, taken together with the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant
to written contractual arrangements with persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, the Registrable Securities
as to which registration has been requested under this Section 2.2, and the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which registration has been
requested pursuant to the written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of the Purchaser, exceeds the Maximum
Number of Shares, then the Purchaser shall include in any such registration:
(a)
If the registration is undertaken for the Purchaser’s account: (A) first, the Ordinary Shares or other securities that the Purchaser
desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of
Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Ordinary Shares or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable
Securities, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the applicable written contractual piggy-back registration rights
of such security holders, Pro Rata, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (C) third, to the extent that
the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Ordinary Shares or other securities for
the account of other persons that the Purchaser is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights
with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares;
(b)
If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of persons other than either the holders of Registrable
Securities, (A) first, the Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account of the demanding persons that can be sold without exceeding
the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause
(A), the Ordinary Shares or other securities that the Purchaser desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number
of Shares; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), collectively
the Ordinary Shares or other securities comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration has been requested pursuant
to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum
Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Ordinary Shares or other securities for the account
of other persons that the Purchaser is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons, that can
be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.
2.2.3
Withdrawal. Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable
Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to the Purchaser of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness
of the Registration Statement. The Purchaser (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by persons making a demand
pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration
Statement. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Purchaser shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Registrable Securities
in connection with such Piggy-Back Registration as provided in Section 3.3.
2.2.4
Registrations on Form S-3. The holders of Registrable Securities may at any time and from time to time, request in writing that
the Purchaser register the resale of any or all of such Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration which
may be available at such time (“Form S-3”); provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be obligated to effect
such request through an underwritten offering. Upon receipt of such written request, the Purchaser will promptly give written notice
of the proposed registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities, and, as soon as practicable thereafter, effect the registration
of all or such portion of such holder’s or holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with
all or such portion of the Registrable Securities or other securities of the Purchaser, if any, of any other holder or holders joining
in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Purchaser;
provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be obligated to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.3: (i) if Form
S-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) if the holders of the Registrable Securities, together with the holders of any other
securities of the Purchaser entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities
(if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $500,000. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not be
counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.1.

3.1.1

Demand Registration for up to thirty (30) days, and any Piggy-Back Registration for such period as may be applicable to deferment of
any demand registration to which such Piggy-Back Registration relates, in each case if the Purchaser shall furnish to the holders a certificate
signed by Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Purchaser stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of
the Purchaser, it would be materially detrimental to the Purchaser and its shareholders for such Registration Statement to be effected

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.
4.1
Indemnification by the Purchaser. The Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and each other holder of Registrable
Securities, and each of their respective officers, employees, affiliates, directors, partners, members, attorneys and agents, and each
person, if any, who controls an Investor and each other holder of Registrable Securities (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, an “Investor Indemnified Party”), from and against any expenses, losses, judgments,
claims, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or allegedly untrue statement)
of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the
Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment
or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arising out of or based upon any omission (or alleged omission) to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Purchaser of the
Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Purchaser and relating to action or inaction required
of the Purchaser in connection with any such registration; and the Purchaser shall promptly reimburse the Investor Indemnified Party
for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Investor Indemnified Party in connection with investigating and defending
any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Purchaser will not be liable in any
such case to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or
allegedly untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus,
or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Purchaser,
in writing, by such selling holder expressly for use therein. The Purchaser also shall indemnify any Underwriter of the Registrable Securities,
their officers, affiliates, directors, partners, members and agents and each person who controls such Underwriter on substantially the
same basis as that of the indemnification provided above in this Section 4.1.
4.2
Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. Each selling holder of Registrable Securities will, in the event that any
registration is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling
holder, indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, each of its directors and officers and each Underwriter (if any), and each other selling
holder and each other person, if any, who controls another selling holder or such Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act,
against any losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, judgments, damages
or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities
Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or
supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or the alleged omission to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in
reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Purchaser by such selling holder expressly for use therein,
and shall reimburse the Purchaser, its directors and officers, and each other selling holder or controlling person for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action. Each selling holder’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the
amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling holder.
4.3
Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability
or any action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, such person (the “Indemnified Party”)
shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other person for indemnification hereunder, notify such other person (the
“Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the failure
by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which the Indemnifying
Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by
such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or action brought against the Indemnified
Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly
with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After
notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of such claim or action,
the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified
Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that in any action in which
both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate
counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling persons who may be subject
to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party,
with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written opinion of counsel of such
Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests
between them. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of judgment or
effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been
a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional
release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.
4.4
Contribution.
4.4.1
If the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of
any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified
Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties in
connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
4.4.2
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 were determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately
preceding Section 4.4.1.
4.4.3
The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to in the immediately
preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such
Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section
4.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds
(after payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable
Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
5.
RULE 144.
5.1
Rule 144. The Purchaser covenants that it shall file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act and shall take such further action as the holders of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from
time to time to enable such holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation
of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule
or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon the request of any holder of Registrable Securities, the Purchaser shall deliver
to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to (A) whether the Purchaser has filed (i) all reports and other
materials required to be filed pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months
(or for such shorter period that the Purchaser was required to file such reports and materials), other than Current Reports on Form 8-K
and (ii) current “Form 10 information” (within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act) with the Commission reflecting
the Purchaser’s status as an entity that is no longer an issuer described in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of Rule 144 under the Securities
Act and (B) the first date that the Purchaser filed “Form 10 information” (within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities
Act) with the Commission.

Registrable Securities may become party to this Agreement by executing and delivering a joinder to the Purchaser and the Sponsor in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser.
6.3

AGREEMENT
THIS
LOCK-UP AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of _________, 2023, by and between the undersigned (the “Holder”)
and Perfect Hexagon Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company (“Purchaser”). Capitalized terms used
and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).
BACKGROUND
A.
WHEREAS, HHG Capital Corporation, a British Virgin Islands business company (“Parent”), Purchaser, Perfect Acquisitions
Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company and wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser (“Merger Sub”) and Perfect
Hexagon Group Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company (the “Company”) have entered into that certain Agreement
and Plan of Merger (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”),
pursuant to which (a) Parent will be merged with and into Purchaser (the “Reincorporation Merger”), with Purchaser
surviving the Reincorporation Merger, and (b) Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Acquisition Merger”),
with the Company surviving the Acquisition Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser (collectively, the “Business
Combination”). Following the Business Combination, Purchaser will be a publicly traded company listed on a stock exchange in
the United States.
B.
The Holder is the record and/or beneficial owner of certain Company Ordinary Shares, which will be exchanged for Purchaser Ordinary Shares
pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
C.
As a condition of, and as a material inducement for Parent to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement,
the Holder has agreed to execute and deliver this Agreement.
NOW,
THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1.
Lock-Up.
(a)
During the Lock-up Period (as defined below), the Holder irrevocably agrees that it will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or
otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Lock-up Shares (as defined below), enter into a transaction that would have
the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences
of ownership of such Lock-up Shares, whether any of these transactions are to be settled by delivery of any such Lock-up Shares, in cash
or otherwise, publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap,
hedge or other arrangement, or engage in any Short Sales (as defined below) with respect to any security of the Purchaser.
(b)
In furtherance of the foregoing, the Purchaser will (i) place an irrevocable stop order on all Lock-up Shares, including those which
may be covered by a registration statement, and (ii) notify the Purchaser’s transfer agent in writing of the stop order and the
restrictions on such Lock-up Shares under this Agreement and direct the Purchaser’s transfer agent not to process any attempts
by the Holder to resell or transfer any Lock-up Shares, except in compliance with this Agreement.
(c)
For purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200
promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and all
types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on
a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.
(d)
For purpose of this Agreement, the “Lock-up Period” means with respect to the Lock-up Shares, the period commencing
on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is twelve (12) months thereafter.
The
restrictions set forth herein shall not apply to: (1) transfers or distributions to the Holder’s current or former general or limited
partners, managers or members, stockholders, other equity holders or direct or indirect affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 405 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) or to the estates of any of the foregoing; (2) transfers by bona fide gift to a member of the
Holder’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is the Holder or a member of the Holder’s immediate family
for estate planning purposes; (3) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of the Holder; or (4) pursuant to a qualified
domestic relations order, in each case where such transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
In
addition, after the Closing Date, if there is a Change of Control, then upon the consummation of such Change of Control, all Lock-up
Shares shall be released from the restrictions contained herein. A “Change of Control” means: (a) the sale of all
or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Purchaser and the Purchaser’s subsidiaries to a third-party purchaser; (b)
a sale resulting in no less than a majority of the voting power of the Purchaser being held by person that did not own a majority of
the voting power prior to such sale; or (c) a merger, consolidation, recapitalization or reorganization of the Purchaser with or into
a third-party purchaser that results in the inability of the pre-transaction equity holders to designate or elect a majority of the board
of directors (or its equivalent) of the resulting entity or its parent company.
2.
Representations and Warranties. Each of the parties hereto, by their respective execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby
represents and warrants to the others and to all third party beneficiaries of this Agreement that (a) such party has the full right,
capacity and authority to enter into, deliver and perform its respective obligations under this Agreement, (b) this Agreement has been
duly executed and delivered by such party and is the binding and enforceable obligation of such party, enforceable against such party
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (c) the execution, delivery and performance of such party’s obligations under
this Agreement will not conflict with or breach the terms of any other agreement, contract, commitment or understanding to which such
party is a party or to which the assets or securities of such party are bound.
3.
Beneficial Ownership. The Holder hereby represents and warrants that it does not beneficially own, directly or through its nominees

Exhibit 99.1
HHG
Capital Corporation Announces Signing of Merger Agreement with Perfect Hexagon Holdings Limited
SINGAPORE
AND NEW YORK, August 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — HHG Capital Corporation (“HHGC”) (NASDAQ: HHGC, HHGCU, HHGCW), a
special purpose acquisition company, announced today that it has entered into a definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”)
with Perfect Hexagon Group Limited (“PH”), a company engaging in the trading of commodities, specifically in precious metals,
providing for a proposed business combination that, if consummated, will result in PH becoming a publicly listed company.
PH
is a physical commodity trading house focusing on precious metal and base metals. PH began partnering with some of the world’s
largest commodity trading houses in 2014 with which it collaborated to generate large volumes of global and physical trade flows. These
partnerships, combined with PH’s strong capital base, create synergies in the value chain that put it at the forefront of the trading
market.
PH
also focuses on market making and trading of various types of physical commodities, including precious metals, palm oil and carbon credits.
It has a broad base of suppliers and customers which ranges from world-class banks and international financial institutions.
PH’s
current management team is currently expected to continue running the combined company after the transaction.
PH
is thrilled to announce the proposed merger with HHGC and its proposed debut on Nasdaq.
Transaction
Overview
Upon
the transaction’s closing, expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2023, the combined company will be named Perfect Hexagon
Holdings Limited and listed on NASDAQ under the symbol “PHGL”.
Pursuant
to the Merger Agreement, HHGC, which currently holds approximately $35 million of cash in trust, will combine with PH.
As
part of the transaction, HHGC is seeking to secure additional investment proceeds from a private investment in public equity (PIPE);
however, there can be no assurances that such investment will be available on terms acceptable to HHGC and PH.
PH’s
management team projects that current PH equity holders will roll 100% of their equity interests into the combined company. The co-founders
of PH will be under a lock-up for twelve months from the closing of the transaction.
The
Boards of Directors of HHGC and PH have unanimously approved the proposed business combination, though the transaction remains subject
to approval by HHGC’s and PH’s shareholders, satisfaction of the conditions stated in the Merger Agreement and other customary
closing conditions, including that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) completes its review of the registration
statement on Form F-4 and the proxy statement/prospectus that HHGC will cause to file with the SEC, the receipt of certain regulatory
approvals, and approval by the Nasdaq Stock Market to list the securities of the combined company.
HHGC
will file a Current Report on Form 8-K, which includes a copy of the Merger Agreement, with the SEC, which is available at www.sec.gov.

the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and a proxy card to each shareholder entitled to vote at the meeting relating to the approval
of the Business Combination and other proposals set forth in the proxy statement/prospectus. The documents filed by HHGC with the SEC
may be obtained free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, or by directing a request to HHG Capital Corporation, 1 Commonwealth

Forward-Looking
Statements
This
press release contains, and certain oral statements made by representatives of HHGC, PH, and their respective affiliates, from time to
time may contain, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. HHGC’s and PH’s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and
projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as
“expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,”
“intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,”
“predicts,” “potential,” “might” and “continues,” and similar expressions are intended
to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, HHGC’s and PH’s
expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial impacts of the business combination, the satisfaction of the
closing conditions to the business combination and the timing of the completion of the business combination. These forward-looking statements
involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results. Most of these
factors are outside the control of HHGC or PH and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are
not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger
Agreement relating to the proposed business combination; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against HHGC
or PH following the announcement of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein; (3) the inability to complete the
business combination, including due to failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of HHGC or other conditions to closing in the Merger
Agreement; (4) delays in obtaining or the inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals (including approval from insurance regulators)
required to complete the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (5) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance
that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement or could otherwise cause the transaction to fail to close; (6) the inability
to obtain or maintain the listing of the post-acquisition company’s ordinary shares on NASDAQ following the business combination;
(7) the risk that the business combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of
the business combination; (8) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the business combination, which may be affected by,
among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees;
(9) costs related to the business combination; (10) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (11) the possibility that PH or the combined
company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and (12) other risks and uncertainties to
be identified in the Form F-4 filed by HHGC (when available) relating to the business combination, including those under “Risk
Factors” therein, and in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) made by HHGC and PH. HHGC
and PH caution that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. HHGC and PH caution readers not to place undue reliance upon any
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Neither HHGC or PH undertakes or accepts any obligation or undertaking
to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change
in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based, subject to applicable law. The information contained in
any website referenced herein is not, and shall not be deemed to be, part of or incorporated into this press release.
No
Offer or Solicitation
This
press release is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute a solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect
to any securities or in respect of the Business Combination. This press release also shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation
of an offer to buy any securities pursuant to the Business Combination or otherwise, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any
jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities
laws of any such jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section
10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption therefrom.
