Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws with respect to the proposed Business Combination between PTK and Valens, including statements regarding the benefits of the Business Combination, the anticipated timing of the Business Combination, the products and services offered by Valens and the markets in which it operates, and Valens’ projected future results. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by terminology such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “potentially,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “would,” “project,” “target,” “plan,” “expect,” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by PTK and its management, and Valens and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the transaction may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of PTK’s securities, (ii) the risk that the transaction may not be completed by PTK’s business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline if sought by PTK, (iii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the transaction, including the adoption of the Business Combination Agreement by the shareholders of PTK and Valens, the satisfaction of the minimum trust account amount following redemptions by PTK’s public shareholders and the receipt of certain governmental and regulatory approvals, (iv) the lack of a third party valuation in determining whether to pursue the proposed Business Combination, (v) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, (vi) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transaction on Valens’s business relationships, performance, and business generally, (vii) risks that the proposed Business Combination disrupts current plans of Valens and potential difficulties in Valens employee retention as a result of the proposed transaction, (viii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Valens or against PTK related to the Business Combination Agreement or the proposed Business Combination, (ix) the ability of Valens to list Valens ordinary shares on the NYSE, (x) volatility in the price of the combined company’s securities due to a variety of factors, including changes in the
competitive and highly regulated industries in which Valens plans to operate, variations in performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting Valens’s business and changes in the combined capital structure, (xi) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the proposed Business Combination, and to identify and realize additional opportunities, and (x) changes in general economic conditions, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of PTK’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Registration Statement on Form F-4 and the included Final Prospectus and such other documents filed or that may be filed by PTK from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and PTK and Valens assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
