Risks Related to Our Business • Our recent transition from a sensory hardware - focused development business model to a sensory software - focused development business model means that effectively we are a “pre - revenue” business, and the transition makes evaluating our business and future prospects difficult and may increase the risk of your investment. • We have an unproven business model in a new market and face significant challenges in a rapidly evolving industry. Our prospects may be considered speculative and any failure to commercialize our strategic plans would have an adverse effect on our operating results and business, harm our reputation and could result in substantial liabilities that exceed our resources. • We have incurred significant operating losses and net cash outflows since inception, and it is uncertain when, if ever, we will generate meaningful revenue and profitability under our new business model. • We have not achieved any OEM design wins, and while we have invested significant time, funds and efforts seeking OEM and Tier 1 selection of our solutions, our solutions ultimately may not be chosen for use in production models. If we fail to achieve OEM design wins after incurring substantial expenditures in these efforts, our future business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected. • Even if we achieve OEM design wins, prospective customers may not purchase our solutions in any certain quantity, at any certain price or at all, and there may be significant delays between the time we achieve either a Tier 1 design and integration win or an OEM design win and the time a contract for production is agreed to and we are able to realize revenue. Any failure to obtain OEM and Tier 1 customers for our solutions and services, whether following Tier 1 design and integration wins, OEM design wins or otherwise, would materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. • Our financial statements contain disclosure regarding the significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to execute our business plan, to fund our operations and to continue as a going concern depends on our ability to raise capital and the continuous support of our creditors. • The Surviving Company will likely have limited sources of available liquidity following completion of the Business Combination and if it does not raise additional capital is expected to operate under an alternative operating plan. If the Surviving Company does not secure additional sources of capital in connection with the Business Combination, it will need to reduce its operating costs to ensure sufficient liquidity for its operations and to comply with the requirements of its debt obligations. A reduction in the Surviving Company’s operating costs may materially adversely affect the Surviving Company in a number of ways. • The Surviving Company’s liquidity position will be further constrained by the requirement to maintain a minimum cash balance of at least $5.0 million following completion of the Business Combination. If the Surviving Company is not able to maintain compliance with the minimum cash balance requirements, its debt obligations may be declared due and payable at a time when the Surviving Company does not have sufficient resources to repay such debt obligations. • Any significant reduction in headcount as part of the implementation of the Company’s cost management plan may have a material adverse effect on the Surviving Company’s operations and future prospects • We invest significantly in research and development, and to the extent our research and development efforts are unsuccessful, our competitive position would be negatively impacted and our business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected. • We have incurred material charges in connection with our decision to exit our modules and components business, and may incur additional charges related to the related exit activities in the future. 36
Risks Related to Our Business (cont’d) • Our historical financial information, historical financial results and operating and business history, which were achieved under our prior sensory hardware - focused business model, may not be representative of our future results under a sensory software - focused business model. • If we are unable to develop and introduce new solutions and improve existing solutions in a cost - effective and timely manner, then our competitive position would be negatively impacted and our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected. • We operate in a highly competitive, dynamic and rapidly changing market and compete against a large number of established competitors and new market entrants, some of whom have substantially greater resources. • We expect that a substantial portion of future revenue will come from a small number of OEMs and Tier 1 customers, and the loss of or a significant reduction in sales to, one or more of major Tier 1 customers and/or the discontinued incorporation of our solutions by one or more major OEMs in their vehicle models, would materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. • We have entered into strategic collaborations, but not yet signed formal agreements, with two Tier 1 suppliers. If we fail to sign formal agreements with those prospective customers, or to subsequently achieve an OEM design win with such customers, our future business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected. • Product integration could face complications or unpredictable difficulties, which may adversely impact customer adoption of our products and our financial performance. • Our business may suffer from claims relating to, among other things, actual or alleged defects in our solutions. If our solutions actually or allegedly fail to perform as expected, publicity related to these claims could harm our reputation and decrease demand for our solutions or increase regulatory scrutiny of our solutions. • If we are unable to overcome our limited sensory fusion solutions sales history and are unable establish and maintain confidence in our long - term business prospects among our customer prospects and within our industry or are subject to negative publicity, then our future business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected. • We are highly dependent on the services of our senior executive officers and loss of key personnel could impair our success. • If we are unable to attract, retain, and motivate key employees, then our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected. • As part of growing our business, we may make acquisitions. If we fail to successfully select, execute or integrate our acquisitions, then our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, and our stock price could decline. • Continued pricing pressures and customer cost reduction initiatives may result in lower than anticipated margins, or losses, which may adversely affect our business. • The Company will need to raise additional funds to meet its capital requirements before or soon after completion of the Business Combination, and such funds may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, which could materially and adversely affect the Surviving Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition and its ability to continue as a going concern. • We are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, including those in connection with recent inflationary trends in the United States, Canada, and globally. • Global or regional conditions can adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. • Catastrophic events can adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. • Disruptions in financial markets may adversely impact the availability and cost of credit and have other adverse effects on us and the market price of our stock. 37
Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property Rights • We may not be able to adequately protect, defend or enforce our intellectual property rights, and our efforts to do so may be costly. • We may become subject to claims and litigation brought by third parties alleging infringement by us of their intellectual property rights. • In addition to patented technology, we rely on our unpatented proprietary technology, trade secrets, processes and know - how that can be more difficult to protect or enforce, which could allow competitors to independently develop or commercialize superior technology, software and products • We use certain software and data governed by open - source licenses, which under certain circumstances could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. • Our subsidiary has received Israeli government grants for certain of its research and development activities and it may receive additional grants in the future. The terms of those grants restrict our ability to transfer technologies outside of Israel, and we may be required to pay penalties in such cases or upon the sale of our company. Risks Related to Privacy, Data and Cybersecurity • Interruptions to our information technology systems and networks and cybersecurity incidents could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. • Security breaches and other disruptions of our in - vehicle systems and related data could impact the safety of our end users and reduce confidence in us and our solutions. • Failures or perceived failures to comply with privacy, data protection, and information security requirements, or theft, loss, or misuse of personal information about our employees, customers, end users, or other third parties, or other information, could increase our expenses, damage our reputation, or result in legal or regulatory proceedings. Risks Related to Our Industry • The current uncertain economic environment and inflationary conditions may adversely affect global vehicle production and demand for our solutions. • ADAS and AD systems rely on a complex set of technologies, and there is no assurance that the rate of acceptance and adoption of these technologies will increase in the near future or that a market for fully autonomous vehicles will fully develop. • We operate in an industry that is new and rapidly evolving. The market and industry projections included in this Presentation are subject to significant uncertainty. If markets for sensor fusion products develop more slowly than we expect, or long - term end - customer adoption rates and demand are slower than we expect, our operating results and growth prospects could be harmed. Regulatory and Compliance Risks • We are subject to a variety of laws and regulations that affect our operations and that could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. • Our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected by changes in automotive safety regulations regarding autonomous driving, which may increase our costs or delay or halt adoption of our sensor fusion solutions. • If we fail to comply with the laws and regulations relating to the collection of sales tax and payment of income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which we do business, we could be exposed to unexpected costs, expenses, penalties and fees as a result of our non - compliance, which could harm our business. • Unanticipated changes in effective tax rates or adverse outcomes resulting from examination of our income or other tax returns could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. • We are subject to risks related to trade policies, sanctions, and import and export controls. • The current conflict between Ukraine and Russia has exacerbated market instability and disrupted the global economy. 38
Risks Related to Ownership of Surviving Company Common Shares Following the Business Combination and the Surviving Company Operating as a Public Company • The Surviving Company does not intend to pay cash dividends for the foreseeable future. • If analysts do not publish research about the Surviving Company’s business or if they publish inaccurate or unfavorable research, the Surviving Company’s stock price and trading volume could decline. • Future resales of Surviving Company Common Shares after the consummation of the Business Combination may cause the market price of the Surviving Company’s securities to drop significantly, even if the Surviving Company’s business is doing well. • We need to raise additional capital to address our liquidity needs and to realize our operational goals. The issuance of additional shares of the Company common shares would result in dilution of future Surviving Company shareholders and could have a negative impact on the market price of Surviving Company Common Shares. • The actual market value of the Surviving Company Common Shares will not be known until after completion of the Business Combination, and an active market for the Surviving Company’s securities may not materialize, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of the Surviving Company’s securities. • If the benefits of the Business Combination do not meet the expectations of investors, shareholders or financial analysts, the market price of the Surviving Company’s securities may decline. • Recent market volatility could impact the stock price and trading volume of the Surviving Company’s securities. • The obligations associated with being a public company will involve significant expenses and will require significant resources and management attention. • We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, and we may identify additional material weaknesses in the future. • The Surviving Company will be an emerging growth company subject to reduced disclosure requirements, and there is a risk that availing itself of such reduced disclosure requirements will make its ordinary shares less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies. • Because the Surviving Company will become a public reporting company by means other than a traditional underwritten initial public offering, the Surviving Company’s shareholders may face additional risks and uncertainties. • Prospector and the Company have no history operating as a combined company. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information may not be an indication of the Surviving Company’s financial condition or results of operations following the Business Combination, and accordingly, shareholders have limited financial information on which to evaluate the Surviving Company and their investment decisions. • The fairness opinion obtained by the Prospector Board will not reflect changes, circumstances, developments or events that may have occurred or may occur after the date of the opinion. • Following the Business Combination, the Surviving Company will qualify as a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act, and, as such, will be exempt from certain provisions applicable to United States domestic public companies. The Surviving Company could lose its status as a foreign private issuer in the future, causing it to incur substantial costs, time and resources. • As a foreign private issuer, the Surviving Company will be permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from Nasdaq listing standards; these practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with Nasdaq listing standards. • The by - laws of the Surviving Company that will be in effect upon the Closing will designate the Superior Court of Justice of the Province of Québec, Canada and the appellate courts therefrom as the exclusive forum for certain litigation that may be initiated by the Surviving Company’s shareholders, which could limit the Surviving Company’s shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with the Surviving Company. 39
Risks Related to Prospector and the Business Combination • The Sponsor has agreed to vote in favor of the Business Combination, regardless of how our public shareholders vote. • The announcement of the proposed Business Combination could disrupt the Company’s relationships with its customers, suppliers, business partners and others, as well as its operating results and business generally. • If the conditions to the Business Combination Agreement are not met, the Business Combination may not occur. • Prospector may be able to complete the Business Combination even if a substantial majority of Prospector’s shareholders redeem their Prospector Class A Shares or vote against the Business Combination. • Prospector is an emerging growth company subject to reduced disclosure requirements, and there is a risk that availing itself of such reduced disclosure requirements will make its ordinary shares less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare Prospector’s performance with other public companies. • If Prospector is deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, it may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and its activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult to complete the Business Combination or cause the parties to abandon their efforts to complete the Business Combination. • Prospector’s ability to complete an initial business combination with a U.S. target company may be impacted if such initial business combination is subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations and review by a U.S. government entity, such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”), and ultimately prohibited. • If Prospector is unable to complete the Business Combination or another initial business combination by December 31, 2023, Prospector will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming 100% of the outstanding public shares, and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and Prospector’s board of directors, dissolving and liquidating. • Because Prospector is incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, in the event the Business Combination is not completed, Prospector’s shareholders may face difficulties in protecting their interests, and their abilities to protect their rights through the U.S. federal courts may be limited. • If Prospector is unable to consummate its business combination by December 31, 2023, Prospector’s public shareholders may be forced to wait until December 31, 2023 before redemption from Prospector’s Trust Account. • Prospector and the Company will incur significant transaction and transition costs in connection with the Business Combination. • Subsequent to the consummation of the Business Combination, the Surviving Company may be exposed to unknown or contingent liabilities and may be required to subsequently take write - downs or write - offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on its financial condition, results of operations and its share price, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment. • The historical financial results of the Company and unaudited pro forma financial information may not be indicative of what the Surviving Company’s actual financial position or results of operations would have been. • After the Business Combination, our assets may not be sufficient to pay taxes or expenses, dividends or make distributions or loans to enable us to pay any dividends on Surviving Company Common Shares or satisfy our other financial obligations. • Prospector/Surviving Company may be or may become a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”), which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders • The Business Combination has a specified Minimum Proceeds Condition. While redemptions by Prospector’s public shareholders are not expected to cause the parties to be unable to meet the Minimum Proceeds Condition, any failure of the PIPE Investors to fund their Tranche B - 2 purchase concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination will make it more difficult for Prospector to complete the Business Combination as contemplated. • During the pendency of the Business Combination, Prospector will not be able to enter into a business combination with another party because of restrictions in the Business Combination Agreement. Furthermore, certain provisions of the Business Combination Agreement will discourage third parties from submitting alternative takeover proposals, including proposals that may be superior to the arrangements contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement. • If third parties bring claims against Prospector, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share. 40
Risks Related to Prospector and the Business Combination (cont’d) • Prospector’s directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of their Sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to our public shareholders. • Prospector may not have sufficient funds to satisfy any indemnification claims from Prospector’s directors and executive officers. • If Prospector is unable to consummate its initial business combination, after Prospector distributes the proceeds in Prospector’s trust account to Prospector shareholders, and Prospector files a winding - up or bankruptcy petition or an involuntary winding - up or bankruptcy petition is filed against Prospector that is not dismissed, a bankruptcy court may seek to recover such proceeds, and Prospector’s board of directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to Prospector creditors, thereby exposing the members of Prospector’s board to claims of punitive damage. • If Prospector is unable to consummate its initial business combination, and if a winding - up or bankruptcy petition or an involuntary winding - up or bankruptcy petition is filed against Prospector and it is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of Prospector shareholders and the per share amount that would otherwise be received by Prospector shareholders in connection with Prospector’s liquidation may be reduced. • Prospector’s shareholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against Prospector to the extent of distributions received by them upon redemption of their shares if no business combination occurs. • The public shareholders will experience immediate dilution as a consequence of the issuance of Surviving Company Common Shares as consideration in the Business Combination and the PIPE Financing and due to future issuances pursuant to the Incentive Plan, and may experience future dilution in the event of the vesting and conversion of the Surviving Company Earnout Non - Voting Special Shares. • Warrants will become exercisable for Surviving Company Common Shares, which would increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to our shareholders. • Even if the Business Combination is consummated, the public warrants may never be in the money, and they may expire worthless and the terms of the warrants may be amended in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least 65% of the then outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment. • Prospector may redeem your unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your warrants worthless. • There can be no assurance that the Surviving Company Common Shares that will be issued in connection with the Business Combination will be approved for listing on Nasdaq following the Closing, or that the Surviving Company will be able to comply with the continued listing rules of Nasdaq. • The process of taking a company public by means of a business combination with a special purpose acquisition company is different from taking a company public through an initial public offering and may create risks for our unaffiliated investors. • Prospector, and following our initial business combination, the post - business combination company, may face litigation and other risks as a result of Prospector’s material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. 41
Risks Related to Conflicts of Interest • The Sponsor, members of Prospector’s management team and its board of directors have interests that are different, or in addition to (and which may conflict with), the interests of Prospector’s public shareholders and conflicts of interest relating to the business combination with the Company. Such conflicts may adversely affect the interests of Prospector’s shareholders and the Company’s shareholders. • Directors and officers of Prospector have potential conflicts of interest in recommending that shareholders vote in favor of approval of the Business Combination and approval of the other Shareholder Proposals described in the proxy statement/prospectus. • Since Prospector’s sponsor, officers and directors will lose their entire investment if Prospector’s initial business combination is not completed by December 31, 2023, a conflict of interest may arise in determining whether a particular business combination target is appropriate for Prospector’s initial business combination. • The Business Combination may be completed even though material adverse effects may result from the announcement of the Business Combination, industry - wide changes and other causes • Delays in completing the Business Combination may jeopardize or substantially reduce the expected benefits of the Business Combination. • Actions taken by the Sponsor and/or its affiliates could influence the vote on the proposal to approve the Business Combination, have a depressive effect on the Prospector Class A Shares and reduce the public “float” of the Surviving Company’s securities. • If Prospector’s due diligence investigation of the Company was inadequate, then shareholders of Prospector following the consummation of the Business Combination could lose some or all of their investment. • Prospector has conducted due diligence to assess the management of the Company’s business but cannot assure shareholders that the Company’s management has all the skills, qualifications or abilities necessary to manage a public company. • Goldman Sachs, the lead underwriter in Prospector’s IPO, was to be compensated, in part, on a deferred basis for already - rendered underwriting services in connection with Prospector’s IPO, yet Goldman Sachs, without any consideration from Prospector or the Company, gratuitously waived its entitlement to such compensation and disclaimed any responsibility for the proxy statement/prospectus, but Goldman Sachs remains entitled to customary indemnification and contribution obligations of Prospector in connection with the Business Combination. • Goldman Sachs declined to act for Prospector as an advisor in connection with the Business Combination, and Goldman Sachs has had no role in the preparation of the disclosure that is included in the proxy statement/prospectus, or the underlying business analysis related to the Business Combination. 42
