Local Bounti does not undertake any commitment to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of management's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Local Bounti does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. Accordingly, you should not put undue reliance on these statements.
