Today, we announced our plan to go public on the Nasdaq with Adrian
Cheng Artisan Acquisition Corp (Nasdaq: ARTAU). It's truly humbling that this represents Hong Kong's first-ever Unicorn to be listed in
any market, and we're beyond honoured to represent Hong Kong in the global public markets. The transaction values Prenetics at an enterprise
value of US$1.25 billion with a equity value of approximately US$1.7 billion. Total cash proceeds are expected to be up to US$459million,
including a fully committed PIPE and FPA of US$120 million and up to US$339million of cash from the Artisan trust.
7 years ago, we started with 7 people and now, we are 700 (by pure
coincidence, we have 3 offices globally all on the 7th floor) globally across 10 countries. Today's announcement marks a major milestone
for Prenetics and for Hong Kong entrepreneurs. I hope this can provide hope and inspire current entrepreneurs as well as the next generation
of entrepreneurs to create, innovate and to make an impact. Have passion, creativity, humility and it can take you far...
It sounds crazy to say this but the reality is we have just touched
the surface and we are just getting started! Our goal is to decentralize healthcare and bring healthcare closer to millions of people
globally. We aim to create millions of rapid diagnostic labs, not laboratories in the traditional sense, but portable labs. Imagine testing
for Covid-19, Flu and STDs, all in the comfort of your own home. We aim to make colon cancer screening easy, simply by taking a stool
DNA test, without the need for a colonoscopy. We aim to make prevention the norm, and not treatment. We'll work even harder to empower
everyone so they can be in control of their own health.
Thank you Adrian Cheng for trusting in us and the synergies across
your vast 14m members ecosystem will undoubtedly propel our growth. Thank you Ben Cheng for your relentless work ethic and execution
ability. Thank you to all of our investors who supported us to get to where we are today. Thank you to all of our customers who trusted
us dearly with your health. Thank you to all of our team members who have ever been a part of Prenetics - we have made history! #prenetics

of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act that are based on beliefs and assumptions and on information
currently available to Artisan and Prenetics, and also contains certain financial forecasts and projections.
All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in
this document, including, but not limited to, statements as to Prenetics’ plans for new product development, the sources and uses
of cash from the proposed transaction, the anticipated enterprise value of PubCo following the consummation of the proposed transaction,
anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction and expectations related to the terms of the proposed transaction, are also forward-looking
statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “may,” “will,”
“could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,”
“believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “continue,”
“ongoing,” “target,” “seek” or the negative or plural of these words, or other similar expressions
that are predictions or indicate future events or prospects, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. These statements
are based upon estimates and forecasts and reflect the views, assumptions, expectations, and opinions of Artisan and Prenetics, which
involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially
different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Any such estimates, assumptions, expectations, forecasts,
views or opinions, whether or not identified in this document, should be regarded as indicative, preliminary and for illustrative purposes
only and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results. Although each of Artisan, Prenetics and PubCo believes
that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this document, each of Artisan, Prenetics and PubCo caution
you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known and projections of the future, which are inherently
uncertain. In addition, there will be risks and uncertainties described in the proxy statement/prospectus on Form F-4 relating to the
proposed transaction, which is expected to be filed by PubCo with the SEC and other documents filed by Artisan or PubCo from time to time
with the SEC. These filings may identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results
to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this document include
statements regarding the proposed transaction, including the timing and structure of the transaction, the proceeds of the transaction
and the benefits of the transaction. Neither Artisan, Prenetics nor PubCo can assure you that the forward-looking statements in this document
will prove to be accurate. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the ability
to complete the business combination due to the failure to obtain approval from Artisan’s shareholders or satisfy other closing
conditions in the business combination agreement, the occurrence of any event that could give rise to the termination of the business
combination agreement, the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the business combination, the amount of redemption requests
made by Artisan’s public shareholders, costs related to the transaction, the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the risk that
the transaction disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the transaction, the outcome
of any potential litigation, government or regulatory proceedings and other risks and uncertainties, including those to be included under
the heading “Risk Factors” in the registration statement on Form F-4 to be filed by PubCo with the SEC and those included
under the heading “Risk Factors” in the final prospectus of Artisan dated May 13, 2021 and in its subsequent quarterly reports
on Form 10-Q and other filings with the SEC. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should
not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by Artisan, Prenetics, PubCo, their respective directors, officers or employees
or any other person that Artisan, Prenetics or PubCo will achieve their objectives and plans in any specified time frame, or at all. The
forward-looking statements in this document represent the views of Artisan, Prenetics and PubCo as of the date of this document. Subsequent
events and developments may cause those views to change. However, while Artisan, Prenetics and PubCo may update these forward-looking
statements in the future, Artisan, Prenetics and PubCo specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, except to the extent required by
applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing the views of Artisan, Prenetics or
PubCo as of any date subsequent to the date of this document. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking
statements.
