statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are
predictions, projections and other statements about future events
that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a
result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could
cause actual future events to differ materially from the

without limitation: (i) the risk that the Proposed Transaction may
not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely
affect the price of Colombier’s securities, (ii) the risk that the
Proposed Transaction may not be completed by Colombier’s business
combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an
extension of the business combination deadline if sought by

Transactions from the stockholders of Colombier and PSQ,
respectively, (iv) the failure to obtain regulatory approvals, as
applicable, required to consummate the Proposed Transaction, (v)

Transaction on PublicSq.’s business relationships, operating
results, and business generally, (vii) risks that the Proposed
Transaction disrupts current plans and operations of PublicSq.,

against PublicSq. or against Colombier related to the Merger
Agreement or the Proposed Transaction, (ix) the ability to satisfy
and maintain the listing of Colombier’s securities on the New York
Stock Exchange or another national securities exchange, (x) changes
in the competitive industries and markets in which PublicSq.
operates; variations in performance across competitors, changes in
laws and regulations affecting PublicSq.’s business and changes in
the combined capital structure, (xi) the ability to implement
business plans, growth, marketplace and other expectations after
the completion of the Proposed Transaction, and identify and
realize additional opportunities, (xii) the potential inability of
PublicSq. to achieve its business and consumer growth and technical
development plans, (xiii) the ability of PublicSq. to enforce its
current or future intellectual property, including patents and
trademarks, along with potential claims of infringement by
PublicSq. of the intellectual property rights of others, (xiv) risk
of loss of key influencers, media outlets and promoters of
PublicSq.’s business or a loss of reputation of PublicSq. or
reduced interest in the mission and values of PublicSq. and the
segment of the consumer marketplace it intends to serve and (xv)
the risk of economic downturn, increased competition, a changing
regulatory landscape and related impacts that could occur in the
highly competitive consumer marketplace, both online and through
“bricks and mortar” operations. The foregoing list of factors is
not exhaustive. Recipients should carefully consider such factors
and the other risks and uncertainties described and to be described
in the “Risk Factors” section of Colombier’s IPO prospectus filed
with the SEC on June 9, 2021, Colombier’s Annual Report on Form
10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the

documents filed or to be filed by Colombier 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. Recipients are cautioned not to put undue reliance
on forward-looking statements, and neither PublicSq. nor Colombier
assume any obligation to, nor intend to, update or revise these
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events, or otherwise, except as required by law. Neither
PublicSq. nor Colombier gives any assurance that either PublicSq.
or Colombier, or the combined company, will achieve its
