Statements that are\nnot historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange\nAct of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future performance\nor future financial condition. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations,\nestimates and projections about our company, our industry, our beliefs and our assumptions. Such forward-looking statements include,\nbut are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies\nregarding the future, and statements regarding the contemplated benefits of the Merger and other future events and contingencies relating\nthereto. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances,\nincluding any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the\nfollowing words: “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,”\n“expect,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,”\n“project,” “should,” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions, but the absence of these words\ndoes not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties\n(some of which are beyond our control) that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or\nimplied by such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. These\nrisks include risks relating to agreements with third parties; our ability to raise funding in the future, as needed, and the terms of\nsuch funding, including potential dilution caused thereby; our ability to continue as a going concern; our ability to maintain the listing\nof our common stock on the NYSE American LLC; the outcome of any current legal proceedings or future legal proceedings that may be instituted\nagainst us; unanticipated difficulties or expenditures relating to our business plan; that Aligned’s planned business and technology\ninfrastructure do not yield the benefits anticipated or sought; that following Closing the Company may be unable to obtain the requisite\nshareholder approvals; and those risks detailed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent reports filed with the SEC.\n\n \n\nForward-looking\nstatements speak only as of the date they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements,\nwhether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise that occur after that date, except as otherwise provided by law.\n\n \n\n**Additional\nInformation and Where to Find It**\n\n \n\nThis\ncommunication relates to a transaction involving Volato and Aligned.
