The voting results for the Adjournment Proposal is as follows:

 All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Current Report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may generally be identified by the use of words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” “target” or other similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations including as they relate to the proposed Business Combination and related transactions, pricing and market opportunity, the satisfaction of closing conditions to the proposed Business Combination and related transactions, the level of redemptions by Twin Ridge’s public shareholders and the timing of the completion of the proposed Business Combination, including the anticipated closing date of the proposed Business Combination and the use of the cash proceeds therefrom. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Current Report, and on the current expectations of Carbon Revolution’s and Twin Ridge’s management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and must not be relied on by any investor as a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and may differ from such assumptions, and such differences may be material. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Carbon Revolution and Twin Ridge.

These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including (i) changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; (ii) the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the proposed Business Combination, including the risks that we will not secure sufficient funding to proceed through to completion of the Business Combination, any required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed Business Combination, or that the approval of the shareholders of Twin Ridge or Carbon Revolution is not obtained; (iii) the ability to maintain the listing of MergeCo’s securities on the stock exchange; (iv) the inability to complete any private placement financing, the amount of any private placement financing or the completion of any private placement financing on favorable terms; (v) the risk that the proposed Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations Carbon Revolution or Twin Ridge as a result of the announcement and consummation of the proposed Business Combination and related transactions; (vi) the risk that any of the conditions to closing of the Business Combination are not satisfied in the anticipated manner or on the anticipated timeline or are waived by any of the parties thereto; (vii) the failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed Business Combination and related transactions; (viii) risks relating to the uncertainty of the costs related to the proposed Business Combination; (ix) risks related to the rollout of Carbon Revolution’s business strategy and the timing of expected business milestones; (x) the effects of competition on Carbon Revolution’s future business and the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth, establish and maintain relationships with customers and healthcare professionals and retain its management and key employees; (xi) risks related to domestic and international political and macroeconomic uncertainty, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict; (xii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Twin Ridge, Carbon Revolution or any of their respective directors or officers; (xiii) the amount of redemption requests made by Twin Ridge’s public shareholders; (xiv) the ability of Twin Ridge to issue equity, if any, in connection with the proposed Business Combination or to otherwise obtain financing in the future; (xv) the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic and governmental responses on any of the foregoing risks; (xvi) risks related to Carbon Revolution’s industry; (xvii) changes in laws and regulations; and (xviii) those factors discussed in Twin Ridge’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, in each case, under the heading “Risk Factors,” and other documents of Twin Ridge or MergeCo to be filed with the SEC, including the Registration Statement. If any of these risks materialize or Twin Ridge’s or Carbon Revolution’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither Twin Ridge nor Carbon Revolution presently know or that Twin Ridge and Carbon Revolution currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Twin Ridge’s and Carbon Revolution’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Current Report. Twin Ridge and Carbon Revolution anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause Twin Ridge’s and Carbon Revolution’s assessments to change. However, while Twin Ridge and Carbon Revolution may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, each of Twin Ridge, Carbon Revolution, MergeCo and Merger Sub specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, unless required by applicable law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Twin Ridge’s and Carbon Revolution’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
