FACT will also file other documents regarding the Proposed Business Combination with the SE C. Shareholders of FACT are advised to read the Registration Statement, the proxy statement/prospectus and all other relevant do cum ents filed or that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the Proposed Business Combination as they become available because they will contain important information. S har eholders will be able to obtain free copies of the registration statement, the proxy statement/prospectus and all other relev ant documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC by FACT through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov . Participants in Solicitation FACT, the Company and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed under SEC rules to be participants in t he solicitation of proxies from FACT's stockholders in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. A list of the names of su ch directors and executive officers, and information regarding their interests in the Proposed Business Combination and their ownership of FACT's securities are, or will be, cont ain ed in FACT's filings with the SEC. Additional information regarding the interests of the persons who may, under SEC rules, be de emed participants in the solicitation of proxies of FACT's shareholders in connection with the Proposed Business Combination, including the names and interests of the Company's directo rs and executive officers, will be set forth in the Registration Statement.

Industry and Market Data This presentation has been prepared by the Company and FACT and includes market data and other statistical information from s our ces believed by the Company and FACT to be reliable, including independent industry publications, governmental publications o r o ther published independent sources. Some data is also based on the good faith estimates of the Company or FACT, which in each case are derived from its review of internal sou rces as well as the independent sources described above. Although the Company and FACT believe these sources are reliable, th e C ompany and FACT have not independently verified the information and cannot guarantee its accuracy and completeness. Financial Information; Non - GAAP Financial Measures The historical and pro forma historical financial information and data contained in this presentation is unaudited, based on dra ft statutory accounts, does not conform to Regulation S - X, and is subject to PCAOB audit. Accordingly, such information and data may not be included in, may be adjusted in or may be presented differently in the Registration Statement and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus contained therein. Some of the financial information and data contained in this presentation, such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin and Adjusted EB IT DA Margin, have not been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, depreci ati on, amortization, and corporate taxes. EBITDA margin is defined as EBITDA (as defined above) divided by revenue. The Company bel ieves these non - GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to th e C ompany's financial condition and results of operations. The Company's management uses these non - GAAP measures for trend analyses and for budgeting and planning purposes. The Company and FACT believe that the use of these non - GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in c omparing the Company's financial condition and results of operations with other similar companies, many of which present simi lar non - GAAP financial measures to investors. However, other companies may calculate their non - GAAP measures differently, and therefore the non - GAAP measures in this presenta tion not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Management does not consider these non - GAAP mea sures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non - GAAP financial measures is that the y exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company's financial statements. In add ition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded and included in determining th ese non - GAAP financial measures. For more information on non - GAAP reconciliations, please see slide 46. No Offer or Solicitation This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell or exchange, or the solicitation of an offer to buy or exchange, any s ecu rities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which, or to any investor to whom, such offer, sale or exchange would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. Use of Projections Any financial information in this presentation (including specifically the projections) that are forward - looking statements are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Co mpany's and FACT's control. While such information and projections are necessarily speculative, the Company and FACT believe that the preparation of prospective financial informati on involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection extends from the date of preparation. The a ssu mptions and estimates underlying the projected results are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertaint ies that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the projections. All subsequent written and oral f orward - looking statements concerning the Company and FACT, the Proposed Business Combination, or other matters and attributable to the Company and FACT or any person acting on their be hal f are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above. Trademarks This presentation contains trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights of the Company, FACT and other companies, as ap plicable, which are the property of their respective owners. The use or display of third parties' trademarks, service marks, tra de names and copyrights in this presentation is not intended to, and does not imply, a relationship with Company or FACT, or an endorsement or sponsorship by or of the Company o r F ACT. NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY STATE OR TERRITORIAL SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THE SECURITIES OR DETERMINE D I F THIS PRESENTATION IS TRUTHFUL OR COMPLETE. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY CONSITUTES A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
