Forward-Looking
Statements
Certain
statements made in this Current Report are “forward-looking statements”
within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking
statements may be identified by the use of words such as “target,” “believe,” “expect,” “will,”
“shall,” “may,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “estimate,” “would,” “could,”
“positioned,” “future,” “forecast,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,”
“outlook” and other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical
matters. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements made in this Current Report regarding: the proposed
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the benefits of the proposed business combination, integration plans, expected
synergies and revenue opportunities; anticipated future financial and operating performance and results, including estimates for growth,
the expected management and governance of the combined company, continued expansion of product portfolios and the availability or effectiveness
of the technology for such products; the longevity health care sector’s continued growth; and the expected timing of the proposed
business combination. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are
based only on Viveon’s and Clearday’s current beliefs, expectations and assumptions. Because forward-looking statements relate
to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of
which are outside of our control. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements.
Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results and outcomes
to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: (1) the occurrence of
any event, change, or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; (2) the institution or outcome
of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Viveon and/or Clearday following the announcement of the Merger Agreement and
the transactions contemplated therein; (3) the inability of the parties to complete the proposed business combination, including due to
failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of Viveon or Clearday, certain regulatory approvals, or satisfy other conditions to closing
in the Merger Agreement; (4) the occurrence of any event, change, or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the
Merger Agreement or could otherwise cause the transaction to fail to close; (5) the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on Clearday’s business
and/or the ability of the parties to complete the proposed business combination; (6) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of
Viveon’s shares of common stock on the NYSE American following the proposed business combination; (7) the risk that the proposed
business combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the proposed business combination;
(8) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed business combination, which may be affected by, among other things,
competition and the ability of Clearday to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; (9) costs related to the proposed
business combination; (10) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (11) the possibility that Clearday may be adversely affected by
other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (12) the amount of redemption requests made by Viveon’s stockholders; and
(13) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the final prospectus of Viveon for its initial public offering dated
December 22, 2020 filed with the SEC, Viveon’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Clearday’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Form
S-4 relating to the proposed business combination, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and in Viveon s and Clearday’s
other filings with the SEC. The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive and Viveon and Clearday caution readers not to place undue
reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Viveon and Clearday do not undertake or accept any
obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in their
expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based, whether as a result of new information,
future events, or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law. Neither Viveon nor Clearday gives any assurance that the combined
company will achieve its expectations.

Statements
Certain
statements made in this Press Release are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor”
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words
such as “target,” “believe,” “expect,” “will,” “shall,” “may,”
“anticipate,” “assume,” “estimate,” “would,” “could,” “positioned,”
“future,” “forecast,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “outlook”

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on Viveon’s

our control. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you
should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results and outcomes to differ
materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: (1) the occurrence of any event,
change, or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; (2) the institution or outcome of any
legal proceedings that may be instituted against Viveon and/or Clearday following the announcement of the Merger Agreement and the transactions
contemplated therein; (3) the inability of the parties to complete the proposed business combination, including due to failure to obtain
approval of the stockholders of Viveon or Clearday, certain regulatory approvals, or satisfy other conditions to closing in the Merger

or could otherwise cause the transaction to fail to close; (5) the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on Clearday’s business and/or the

shares of common stock on the NYSE American following the proposed business combination; (7) the risk that the proposed business combination
disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the proposed business combination; (8) the

and the ability of Clearday to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; (9) costs related to the proposed business
combination; (10) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (11) the possibility that Clearday may be adversely affected by other economic,
business, and/or competitive factors; (12) the amount of redemption requests made by Viveon’s stockholders; and (13) other risks
and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the final prospectus of Viveon for its initial public offering dated December 22, 2020
filed with the SEC, Viveon’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Clearday’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Form S-4 relating
to the proposed business combination, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and in Viveon s and Clearday’s
other filings with the SEC. The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive and Viveon and Clearday caution readers not to place undue
reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Viveon and Clearday do not undertake or accept any
obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in their
expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based, whether as a result of new information,
future events, or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law. Neither Viveon nor Clearday gives any assurance that the combined
