Demand Letters Related to the Business Combination

On March 26, 2021, March 30, 2021, April 15, 2021 and June 2, 2021, FAII received a total of five demand letters from five purported stockholders of FAII (the 'Demand Letters'). The Demand Letters generally allege that the preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A for the Special Meeting of Stockholders in lieu of the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on June 15, 2021, at 8:00 a.m., Eastern Time (the 'Special Meeting'), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'SEC') on March 12, 2021 (the 'Preliminary Proxy Statement'), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Preliminary Proxy Statement, filed with the SEC on May 5, 2021 and/or the definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A for FAII's Special Meeting of Stockholders, filed with the SEC on May 14, 2021 (the 'Definitive Proxy Statement') and relating to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination, omitted material information in violation of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and certain rules promulgated thereunder, rendering the Preliminary Proxy Statement and/or the Definitive Proxy Statement false and misleading.

FAII has not yet responded to any of these Demand Letters and believes they are without merit. However, in order to moot the purported FAII stockholders' unmeritorious disclosure claims, alleviate the costs, risks and uncertainties inherent in litigation and provide additional information to its stockholders, FAII has determined to voluntarily supplement the Definitive Proxy Statement with certain supplemental disclosures as described in the following section entitled 'Supplemental Disclosures' in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Nothingin this Current Report on Form 8-K shallbe deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein.
