On May 17, 2021, AF Acquisition Corp.

No fractional Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Warrants will trade. The Units not separated will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “AFAQU.” Shares of Class A Common Stock and the Warrants are expected to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “AFAQ” and “AFAQW,” respectively. Holders of Units will need to have their brokers contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, in order to separate such holders’ Units into shares of Class A Common Stock and Warrants.
