PTIC’s or Appreciate’s future financial or operating performance,
and other “forward-looking statements” (as such term is defined in
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), which
include statements relating to the Business Combination. In some
cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology
such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,”
“anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,”
“predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” or the
negatives of these terms or similar expressions that predict or

historical matters. These forward-looking statements are subject to
a number of risks and uncertainties, including the inability of the
parties to successfully or timely complete the Business
Combination. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions
prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the
results implied by these forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and
assumptions that, while considered reasonable by PTIC and its
management, and/or Appreciate and its management, as the case may
be, are inherently uncertain. Factors that may cause actual results
to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not
limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other
circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the
business combination agreement; (2) the outcome of any legal
proceedings that may be instituted against PTIC, Appreciate, the
combined company following the Business Combination or others
following the announcement of the transactions related to the
Business Combination including the business combination agreement;
(3) the inability to complete the transactions contemplated by the
business combination agreement due to the failure to obtain
approval of the stockholders of PTIC, to obtain financing necessary
to complete the transactions contemplated by the business
combination agreement, or to satisfy other conditions to closing;
(4) the failure of any condition precedent to the committed equity
facility in connection with the common stock purchase agreement by
and between PTIC and CF Principal Investments LLC, which could
cause the termination of such facility; (5) changes to the proposed
structure of the transactions contemplated by the business
combination agreement that may be required or appropriate as a
result of applicable laws or regulations or as a condition to
obtaining regulatory approval of the transactions contemplated by
the business combination agreement; (6) the ability to meet stock
exchange listing standards at or following the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the business combination agreement;
(7) the risk that the transactions contemplated by the business
combination agreement disrupt current plans and operations of
Appreciate or PTIC as a result of the announcement and consummation
of the business combination agreement and the transactions
contemplated thereby; (8) the ability to recognize the anticipated
benefits of the transactions contemplated by the business
combination agreement, which may be affected by, among other
things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow
and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers
and suppliers and retain its management and key employees; (9)
costs related to the transactions contemplated by the business
combination agreement; (10) changes in applicable laws or
regulations; (11) the possibility that Appreciate or the combined
company following the Business Combination may be adversely
affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors;
(12) Appreciate’s estimates of expenses and profitability; (13) the
failure to realize anticipated pro forma results or projections and
underlying assumptions, including with respect to estimated
stockholder redemptions, purchase price, and other adjustments;
(14) debt defaults, and the need for or failure to obtain
additional capital; and (15) other risks and uncertainties set
forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note
Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in PTIC’s Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, Quarterly Reports
