KEY RISK FACTORS An investment in our Common Stock or Preferred Stock involves risks. Prior to making a decision about investing in our Common Stock or Preferred Stock, you should consider carefully the risks together with all of the other information contained in this presentation, including any risks described below. Each of the referenced risks and uncertainties could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition, as well as adversely affect the value of an investment in our securities. Additional risks not known to us or that we believe are immaterial may also adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition and the value of an investment in our securities. “Nuburu,” “the Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refers to Legacy Nuburu prior to the consummation of the business combination and to Nuburu following the business combination. Risks Relating to Our Business and Operations We are an early-stage company with a history of losses. We have not been profitable historically and may not be able to achieve profitability in the future. We received fewer proceeds from the business combination than we initially anticipated. We will require additional capital to finance our operations and implement our business plan and strategy and if we are unable to raise such capital when needed, or on acceptable terms, that could have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet our financial obligations and support continued growth and development. Our business is currently dependent on a limited number of customers and end markets. A decline in revenue from, or the loss of, any significant customer, could have a material adverse effect on Nuburu’s financial condition and operating results. Our limited operating history and the novelty of our blue laser systems make evaluating our business, the risks and challenges we may face and our future prospects difficult. The engineering of certain of our laser systems is still in the prototype stage, and there is no guarantee that we will be successful in implementing production of our laser systems on a commercial scale. If our laser systems contain design or manufacturing defects, our business and financial results could be harmed. Insufficient warranty reserves to cover future warranty claims could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. The failure of our suppliers to deliver necessary raw materials and components that meet the specifications for our laser systems in a timely manner could cause installation delays, cancellations and damage to our reputation. We depend on sole source or limited source suppliers, as well as on our own production capabilities, for some of the key components and materials, including, but not limited to, laser diodes and optical filters, which makes us susceptible to supply shortages and other supply chain disruptions and to price fluctuations that could adversely affect our business, particularly our ability to meet our customers’ delivery requirements. We face various other risks with respect to the supply chain that could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. We are highly dependent upon the ability to ship products to customers and to receive shipments of supplies from suppliers. If we fail to accurately forecast component and material requirements for our products, we could incur additional costs and significant delays in shipments, which could result in a loss of customers. Our systems involve a lengthy sales and installation cycle, and if we fail to close sales on a regular and timely basis it could harm our business. The long sales cycles for our products may cause us to incur significant expenses without offsetting revenues. Because of the long sales cycles, our operating results and financial condition may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. There is no assurance that non-binding letters of intent and other indications of interest from customers will be converted into binding orders, sales, bookings or committed offtake contracts. As a result, our operating results may be materially lower than our expected results of operations. If we fail to meet our customers’ price expectations, demand for our products could be negatively impacted and our business and results of operations could suffer. We expect to contract with a number of large companies that have considerable bargaining power, which may require us to agree to terms and conditions that could have an adverse effect on our business or ability to recognize revenues. We currently partner with and derive a portion of our revenue from government entities, and significant changes in the contracting or fiscal policies of such government entities could have an adverse effect on our business and operating results. Declines in the prices of our products and services, or in our volume of sales, together with our relatively inflexible cost structure, may adversely affect our financial results. If we are not able to continue to reduce our cost structure in the future, our ability to become profitable may be impaired. In the event of future growth, our information technology systems and our internal control over financial reporting and procedures may not be adequate to support our operations. We are highly dependent on current key executives and if we are unable to attract and retain key employees and hire qualified management, technical, engineering, and sales personnel, our ability to compete and successfully grow our business could suffer. Labor disputes could disrupt our ability to serve our customers or lead to higher labor costs. 33

Risks Relating to Our Business and Operations (continued) Our expectations and targets regarding the times when we will launch our products depend in large part upon assumptions, estimates, measurements, testing, analyses and data developed and performed by us, which if incorrect or flawed, could have a material adverse effect on our actual operating results and performance. Certain estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth may prove to be inaccurate. Incorrect estimates or assumptions by management in connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements could adversely affect our reported assets, liabilities, income, revenue or expenses. Operational costs can be difficult to predict and may include costs from requirements related to the decommissioning of our systems. We expect to incur significant research and development expenses and devote substantial resources to commercializing new products, which could increase our losses and negatively impact our ability to achieve or maintain profitability. Our ability to use net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards and other tax attributes may be limited in connection with the business combination and other ownership changes. Our insurance coverage may not adequately protect us from harm or losses we may suffer. There is no assurance that we will be able to execute on our business model. Expanding operations internationally will subject us to a variety of risks and uncertainties that could adversely affect our business and operating results. Risks Relating to Our Industry Our future growth is dependent upon the competition, pace and depth of blue laser adoption, as well as on the growth of certain end markets. If such markets do not develop as we expect, or if they develop more slowly than we expect, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected. If the cost of competitive technologies continues to decline, our blue laser technology may not be considered as cost-effective when compared to such competing technologies. Our systems are based on novel technologies to produce blue wavelength lasers and potential customers may be hesitant to make a significant investment in our technology or switch from the technology they are currently using. The average selling prices of our products could decrease over the life of the product, which may negatively affect our revenue and margins. We operate in a highly competitive industry and there is increasing competition. Many of our competitors and future competitors may have significantly more financial and other resources than we do and if we do not compete effectively, our competitive positioning and our operating results will be harmed. Our market is characterized by rapid technological changes and evolving standards demanding a significant investment in research and development, and, if we fail to address changing market conditions, our business and operating results will be harmed. Global economic conditions and macro events may adversely affect us. The laser industry is experiencing declining average selling prices, which could cause our gross margins to decline and harm our operating results. If OEM customers and system integrators are reluctant to incorporate our products into their production processes, our financial condition or results of operations may be adversely affected. Risks Relating to Litigation and Regulation Changes in laws or regulations, or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations, may adversely affect our business and results of operations. Litigation, regulatory actions and compliance issues could subject us to significant fines, penalties, judgments, remediation costs, negative publicity and requirements resulting in increased expenses. We may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention. Our manufacturing facilities are subject to various compliance requirements, including Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”), and compliance costs could increase as we plan to scale our operations. Laws, regulations and rules relating to privacy, information security, and data protection could increase our costs and adversely affect our business opportunities. In addition, the ongoing costs of complying with such laws, regulations and rules could be significant. Our business may depend on the continued availability of rebates, tax credits and accelerated depreciation schedules, and other financial incentives. The reduction, modification, or elimination of government economic incentives, particularly in the defense and research sectors, and tax policies could cause our revenue to decline and harm our financial results. Unanticipated changes in tax laws may affect future financial results. 34

Risks Relating to Litigation and Regulation (continued) We must comply with and could be impacted by various export controls and trade and economic sanctions laws and regulations that could negatively affect our business and may change due to diplomatic and political considerations outside of our control. We could be liable for environmental damages resulting from our operations, which could impact our reputation, our business, and our operating results. The Warrant Agreement designates the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of our warrants, which could limit the ability of warrant holders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with our company. Risk Relating to Intellectual Property We may be unable to protect, defend, maintain or enforce our intellectual property rights for the intellectual property on which our business depends, including against existing or future competitors. Failure to protect defend, maintain and enforce that intellectual property could result in our competitors offering similar products, potentially adversely affecting our growth and success. We may be subject to third-party claims of infringement, misappropriation or other violations of intellectual property rights, or other claims challenging our agreements related to intellectual property, which may be time-consuming and costly to defend, and could result in substantial liability. Our patents and, patent applications if issued, may not provide adequate protection to create a barrier to entry. The provisional and non-provisional patent applications that we own may not issue as patents or provide adequate protection to create a barrier to entry, which may hinder our ability to prevent competitors from selling products similar to ours. We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights throughout the world. Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our intellectual property rights. We may be subject to claims that we or our employees have misappropriated the intellectual property of a third party, including trade secrets or know-how, or are in breach of non-competition or non-solicitation agreements with our competitors. If we are unable to protect the confidentiality of our other proprietary information, our business and competitive position may be harmed. Other Risks Cyber-attacks and other disruptions, security breaches and incidents could have an adverse effect on our business, harm our reputation and expose us to liability. Natural disasters, unusual weather conditions, epidemic outbreaks, terrorist acts and political events could disrupt our business. Interruption or failure of our infrastructure could hurt our ability to effectively perform our daily operations and provide and produce our products and services, which could damage our reputation and harm our operating results. Our financial condition and results of operations as well as those of potential customers could be adversely affected by epidemics, pandemics and other outbreaks such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused a material adverse effect on the level of economic activity around the world, including in the markets we serve. Our financial condition and results of operations as well as those of potential customers could be adversely affected by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which has caused a material adverse effect on the level of economic activity around the world, including in the markets we serve. We may engage in a wide array of potential strategic transactions, which could require significant management attention, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Negative publicity could result in a decline in our growth and have a material adverse effect on our business, our brand and our results of operations. Risks Relating to Being a Public Company A market for our securities may not continue, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of our securities. Our quarterly results and key metrics are likely to fluctuate significantly and may not fully reflect the underlying performance of our business. We will incur increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management is required to devote substantial time to compliance with our public company responsibilities and corporate governance practices. We are an “emerging growth company,” and our election to comply with the reduced disclosure requirements as a public company may make our common stock less attractive to investors. If we fail to maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting, our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be impaired. We may face litigation and other risks as a result of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. 35

Risks Relating to Being a Public Company (continued) Changes in accounting principles may cause previously unanticipated fluctuations in our financial results, and the implementation of such changes may impact our ability to meet our financial reporting obligations. Our management has limited experience in operating a public company. The Company is a “controlled company” within the meaning of the rules of NYSE American and, as a result, qualifies for, and could rely on, exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements. The redemption of our Preferred Stock may require a significant amount of cash and may result in adverse tax consequences. Risks Relating to Ownership of our Securities Our Common Stock is subordinated to our Preferred Stock. Shares of our Preferred Stock may be subordinate to any senior preferred stock we may issue and to any future indebtedness. At the two-year anniversary of the Preferred Stock Issuance, we will be obligated to redeem shares of our Preferred Stock for cash. There can be no guarantee that we will have funds available to make this redemption. NYSE American may delist the Company’s securities from trading on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in its securities and subject the Company to additional trading restrictions. If our Common Stock is delisted from trading, the ability of holders of Preferred Stock to transfer or sell their shares of our Preferred Stock may be limited and the market value of our Preferred Stock will likely be materially adversely affected. The Company’s stock price may change significantly and you could lose all or part of your investment as a result. There is no public market for our Preferred Stock. Because there are no current plans to pay cash dividends on our Common Stock or Preferred Stock for the foreseeable future, you may not receive any return on investment unless you sell your shares for a price greater than that which you originally paid. If securities analysts do not publish research or reports about the Company’s business or if they downgrade the Company’s stock or the Company’s industry, the Company’s stock price and trading volume could decline. Future sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock or Public Warrants in the public markets, or the perception that such sales could occur, could cause the market price of our Common Stock and Public Warrants to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well, and certain selling securityholders still may receive significant proceeds. Anti-takeover provisions in our Governing Documents could delay or prevent a change of control. Holders of our Preferred Stock have extremely limited voting rights. The Company may amend the terms of its warrants in a manner that may be adverse to holders of Public Warrants with the approval by the holders of at least 65% of the then outstanding Public Warrants. As a result, the exercise price of the warrants could be increased, the exercise period could be shortened and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of a Public Warrant could be decreased, all without your approval. The Company may redeem your unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your warrants worthless. Warrants will become exercisable for our Common Stock and our Preferred Stock will be convertible into Common Stock, each of which would increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to our stockholders. The future exercise of registration rights may adversely affect the market price of Common Stock. There is no guarantee that our Warrants will be in the money at the time they become exercisable, and they may expire worthless. 36
