Forward Looking Statements
This Current Report includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. Collier Creek's and Utz's actual results may differ from their
expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on
these forward looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as
"expect," "estimate," "project," "budget," "forecast," "anticipate," "intend,"
"plan," "may," "will," "could," "should," "believes," "predicts," "potential,"
"continue," and similar expressions are intended to identify such
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without
limitation, Collier Creek's and Utz's expectations with respect to future
performance and anticipated financial impacts of the proposed Business
Combination, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the Business
Combination and the timing of the completion of the Business Combination. These
forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that
could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results.
Most of these factors are outside Collier Creek's and Utz's control and are
difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are
not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances
that could give rise to the termination of the Business Combination Agreement;
(2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Collier
Creek and Utz following the announcement of the Business Combination Agreement
and the transactions contemplated therein; (3) the inability to complete the
proposed Business Combination, including due to failure to obtain approval of
the shareholders of Collier Creek or other conditions to closing in the Business
Combination Agreement; (4) the occurrence of any event, change or other
circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Business Combination
Agreement or could otherwise cause the Business Combination to fail to close;
(5) the amount of redemption requests made by Collier Creek's shareholders;
(6) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of the post-business
combination company's common stock on the New York Stock Exchange following the
proposed Business Combination; (7) the risk that the proposed Business
Combination disrupts current plans and operations; (8) the ability to recognize
the anticipated benefits of the proposed Business Combination, which may be
affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined
company 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 Utz or the combined
company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or
competitive factors; and (12) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time
to time in the proxy statement/prospectus relating to the proposed Business
Combination, including those included in the section "Risk Factors", and in
Collier Creek's other filings with the SEC. Some of these risks and
uncertainties may in the future be amplified by the COVID-19 outbreak and there
may be additional risks that Collier Creek considers immaterial or which are
unknown. It is not possible to predict or identify all such risks. Collier Creek
cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. Collier Creek
cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date made. Collier Creek does 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
its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which
any such statement is based, except as otherwise required by law.
