The Company also announced today a record date of May 7, 2021

shareholders, directors and management team. The Special Meeting

and receive access to the hybrid virtual meeting, registered
shareholders and beneficial shareholders (those holding shares
through a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other holder of
record) will need to follow the instructions applicable to them
provided in the proxy statement. The purpose of the Special Meeting
is to vote on certain proposals relating to the Business
Combination.
The closing of the Business Combination is subject to approval
by the Company’s shareholders, and the satisfaction of other
customary closing conditions. The Business Combination is expected
to close promptly after the Special Meeting.
Important Information

Securities Authority has approved or disapproved of the securities
to be issued in connection with the Business Combination, or
determined if the Registration Statement is accurate or
adequate.
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This communication includes “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company’s and
Taboola’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,” “continue,” and
similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements include, without
limitation, the Company’s and Taboola’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 the actual
results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of
these factors are outside the Company’s and Taboola’s control 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 or could otherwise cause the
Business Combination to fail to close; (2) the outcome of legal
proceedings that have or may be instituted against the Company and
Taboola; (3) the inability to complete the Business Combination,
including due to failure to obtain the requisite approval of
shareholders or other conditions to closing in the Merger
Agreement; (4) the receipt of an unsolicited offer from another
party for an alternative business transaction that could interfere
with the Business Combination; (5) the inability to obtain or
maintain the listing of the ordinary shares of the post-acquisition
company on The New York Stock Exchange following the Business
Combination; (6) the risk that the announcement and consummation of
the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations; (7)
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; (8) costs related
to the Business Combination; (9) changes in applicable laws or
regulations; (10) the possibility that Taboola or the combined
company may be adversely affected by other economic, business,
competitive and/or factors such as the COVID-19 pandemic; and (11)
other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the
proxy statement/prospectus relating to the Business Combination,
including those under “Risk Factors” in the Registration Statement,
and in the Company’s other filings with the SEC. The Company
cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. The
Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.
The Company does not undertake or accept any obligation or
undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any

expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances
on which any such statement is based.
