Statements
The information in this communication includes “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of
the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,
as amended. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use
of words such as “estimates,” “projected,” “expects,”
“anticipates,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,”
“seeks,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “future,” “propose” and
variations of these words or similar expressions or the negative
versions of such terms or other similar expressions that predict or
indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of
historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but
are not limited to, statements with respect to a possible
acquisition involving Metromile, Inc. (“Metromile”) and Lemonade,
Inc. (“Lemonade”) and/or the combined group’s estimated or
anticipated future business, performance and results of operations
and financial condition, including estimates, forecasts, targets
and plans for Lemonade and, following the acquisition, if
completed, the combined entity. Any statements that refer to
projections, forecasts, or other characterizations of future events
or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are
forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are subject to known and
unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions about us that may
cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance, or
achievements to be materially different from any future results,
levels of activities, performance, or achievements expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the possibility that
a possible acquisition will not be pursued, failure to obtain
necessary regulatory approvals or to satisfy any of the other
conditions to the possible acquisition, adverse effects on the
market price of Metromile’s or Lemonade’s shares of common stock
and on Metromile’s and Lemonade’s operating results because of a
failure to complete the possible acquisition, failure to realize
the expected benefits of the possible acquisition, failure to
promptly and effectively integrate Metromile’s businesses, negative
effects relating to the announcement of the possible acquisition or
any further announcements relating to the possible acquisition or
the consummation of the possible acquisition on the market price of
Metromile’s or Lemonade’s shares of common stock, significant
transaction costs and/or unknown or inestimable liabilities,
potential litigation associated with the possible acquisition,
general economic and business conditions that affect the combined
companies following the consummation of the possible acquisition,
changes in global, political, economic, business, competitive,
market and regulatory forces, future exchange and interest rates,
changes in tax laws, regulations, rates and policies, future
business acquisitions or disposals and competitive developments.
These forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions
and assessments made in light of Metromile’s or, as the case may
be, Lemonade’s experience and perception of historical trends,
current conditions, business strategies, operating environment,
future developments and other factors it believes appropriate. By
their nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown
risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on
circumstances that will occur in the future. The factors described
in the context of such forward-looking statements in this
communication could cause Lemonade’s plans with respect to
Metromile, Metromile’s or Lemonade’s actual results, performance or
achievements, industry results and developments to differ
materially from those expressed in or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Although it is believed that the
expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are
reasonable, no assurance can be given that such expectations will
prove to have been correct and persons reading this communication
are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements which speak only as at the date of this
communication. Additional information about economic, competitive,
governmental, technological and other factors that may affect
Metromile is set forth under the captions “Risk Factors” in

SEC on August 10, 2021, and in its other filings with the SEC.
Any forward-looking statements in this communication are based
upon information available to Metromile and/or its board of
directors, as the case may be, as of the date of this communication
and, while believed to be true when made, may ultimately prove to
be incorrect. Subject to any obligations under applicable law,
neither Metromile nor any member of its board of directors
undertakes any obligation to update any forward-looking statement
as a result of subsequent events or developments, except as
required by law to update any forward-looking statement whether as
a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, or
to conform any forward-looking statement to actual results, future
events, or to changes in expectations. All subsequent written and
oral forward-looking statements attributable to Metromile or its
board of directors or any person acting on behalf of any of them
are expressly qualified in their entirety by this paragraph.
