These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of financial and operational metrics;. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this presentation, and on the current expectations of CorpAcq's and Churchill's management and are not predictions of actual performance. Nothing in this presentation should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and may materially differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Churchill and CorpAcq. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about Churchill and that may cause each of its actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include changes in domestic and foreign business changes in the competitive environment in which CorpAcq operates; CorpAcq's ability to manage its growth prospects, meet its operational and financial targets, and execute its strategy; the impact of any economic disruptions, decreased market demand and other macroeconomic factors, including the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, to CorpAcq's business, projected results of operations, financial performance or other financial metrics; expectations as to future growth in demand for CorpAcq's products and services; CorpAcq's ability to maintain and develop its IT systems or data storage, including the security of its product offering, or anticipate, manage or adopt technological advances within its industry; CorpAcq's reliance on its senior management team and key employees; risks related to liquidity, capital resources and capital expenditures; failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations or changes in the regulatory environment in which CorpAcq operates; the outcome of any potential litigation, government and regulatory proceedings, investigations and inquiries that CorpAcq may face; assumptions or analyses used for CorpAcq's forecasts proving to be incorrect and causing its actual operating and financial results to be significantly below its forecasts; CorpAcq failing to maintain its current level of acquisitions or an acquisition not occurring as planned and negatively affecting operating results; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the proposed transaction, including the risk that any required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction or that the approval of the shareholders of Churchill is not obtained; the risk that shareholders of Churchill could elect to have their shares redeemed by Churchill, thus leaving the combined company insufficient cash to complete the transactions or grow its business; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against CorpAcq or Churchill following announcement of the proposed transaction; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to CorpAcq; the effects of competition; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the ability of CorpAcq to manage expenses and recruit and retain key employees; the ability of Churchill or the combined company to issue equity or equity-linked securities in connection with the proposed transaction or in the future; the outcome of any potential litigation, government and regulatory proceedings, investigations and inquiries; and the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic or any future pandemic on CorpAcq, Churchill, the combined company's projected results of operations, financial performance or other financial metrics, or on any of the foregoing risks; those factors discussed in Churchill's Quarterly Reports filed by Churchill with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on Form 10-Q and the Annual Reports filed by Churchill with the SEC on Form 10-K, in each case, under the heading "Risk Factors," as well as the factors summarized in this presentation under "Risk Factors" and other documents filed, or to be filed, with the SEC by Churchill. If any of these risks materialize or CorpAcq's or Churchill's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither CorpAcq nor Churchill presently know or that CorpAcq and Churchill currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect CorpAcq's and Churchill's expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this presentation. CorpAcq and Churchill anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause CorpAcq's and Churchill's assessments to change. However, while CorpAcq and Churchill may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, CorpAcq and Churchill specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing CorpAcq and Churchill's assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. An investment in CorpAcq or Churchill is not an investment in any of CorpAcq's or Churchill's past investments or companies or any funds affiliated with any of the foregoing. The historical results of these investments are not indicative of future performance of CorpAcq or Churchill, which may differ materially from the performance of past investments, companies or affiliated funds.#33 About This Presentation CHURCHILL CorpAcq CAPITAL VII Financial Information The financial information contained in this presentation has been taken from or prepared based on the historical financial statements of CorpAcq for the periods presented. CorpAcq's historical financial information is prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting practice in the UK ("UK GAAP"). Such information has not been audited in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") standards. Neither Churchill nor CorpAcq can assure you that, had the financial statements been compliant with Regulation S-X under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and the regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder or audited in accordance with PCAOB standards, there would not be differences and such differences could be material. An audit of CorpAcq's financial statements in accordance with PCAOB standards is in process and will be included in the registration statement relating to the proposed transaction. Furthermore, all financial information included in this presentation subsequent to December 31, 2022 is preliminary and unaudited. CorpAcq's independent auditor has not reviewed or performed any procedures on the preliminary, unaudited financial results included in this presentation. Accordingly there may be material differences between the presentation of the financial information included in the presentation and in the registration statement. Certain monetary amounts, percentages and other figures included in this presentation have been subject to rounding adjustments. Certain other amounts that appear in this presentation may not sum due to rounding. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with UK GAAP including, but not limited to, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, EBITDA Margin, ROIC and certain ratios and other metrics derived therefrom. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with UK GAAP or any other GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing CorpAcq's financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under UK GAAP or any other GAAP. You should be aware that CorpAcq's presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. CorpAcq believes these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to CorpAcq's financial condition and results of operations. CorpAcq believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing CorpAcq's financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Industry and Market Data; Trademarks This presentation also contains certain statistical data, estimates and forecasts that are based on independent industry publications or other publicly available information, as well as other information based on other third-party or internal sources. This information involves many assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such information. None of CorpAcq, Churchill or any placement agent has independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information contained in the industry publications and other publicly available information. Accordingly, none of CorpAcq, Churchill or any placement agent makes any representation as to the accuracy or completeness of that information nor does CorpAcq, Churchill or any placement agent undertake to update such information after the date of this presentation. In addition, this presentation does not purport to be all-inclusive or to contain all of the information that may be required to make a full analysis of CorpAcq or the proposed transaction.

The risks presented below are some of the general risks to the business and operations of CorpAcq, Churchill Capital Corp VII ("Churchill") and the combined company following the consummation of the proposed transaction (the "Post-Combination Company") and are not exhaustive. The list below is qualified in its entirety by disclosures that will be contained in the future filings by the Company, Churchill, each of their respective affiliates or by third parties with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including any documents filed in connection with the proposed transaction. The risks presented in such filings may differ significantly from and may be more extensive than those presented below. The list below is not exhaustive, and you are encouraged to perform your own investigation with respect to the business, financial condition and prospects of CorpAcq. You should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the information included in this presentation. CorpAcq may face additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to it or that it currently deems immaterial, which may also impair CorpAcq's business or its financial condition. These risks speak only as of the date of this presentation, and neither the Company nor Churchill undertake any obligation to update the disclosure contained herein. In making any investment decision, you should rely solely upon independent investigation made by you. You acknowledge that you are not relying upon, and have not relied upon, any of the summary of risks or any other statement, representation or warranty made by any person or entity other than the statements, representations and warranties of the Company and Churchill explicitly contained in any definitive agreement you enter into. You acknowledge that you have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Company and you have sought such accounting, legal and tax advice from your own advisors as you have considered necessary to make an informed decision. Risks Related to the Company's Business and Industry We are subject to risks relating to economic disruptions, decreased market demand and other macroeconomic factors that are beyond our control, including the effect of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, inflation and the COVID-19 pandemic. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● . ● CHURCHILL CAPITAL VII CorpAcq ● ● There are risks to our acquisition strategy, and there are no guarantees that we will be able to carry out acquisitions as planned, or with favorable conditions or at all. The acquisitions and investments we conduct could be unsuccessful or consume significant resources, which could adversely affect our operating results. We are subject to risks relating to due diligence of our acquisition targets, which may not identify all material risks relating to their businesses, and we may not realize the expected benefits of such arrangements. Competition for suitable acquisition targets may lead us to not being able to carry out future acquisitions at a reasonable cost or at all, which could adversely affect our operating results. Our growth and expansion strategy may not materialize as planned or at all. We are exposed to deficiencies related to our internal controls and decentralized organization, which may have an adverse effect on our operations and may lead to errors in the Post-Combination Company's financial reporting. We are dependent on cash flows from our portfolio companies. Many of our portfolio companies operate in sectors that are vulnerable to competition, and failure of our portfolio companies to adequately compete in their respective industries could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. We are a decentralized company and place significant decision-making authority, including decisions regarding operations, governance and finances, with our subsidiaries' management, which presents certain risks, and we may not always have visibility into or control over such decisions. We are subject to risks relating to partly owned portfolio companies. We are subject to risks relating to our information technology systems, financial accounting and other data processing systems, such as cybersecurity risks and risks related to data privacy. We are subject to risks relating to third-party suppliers, customers, contractors and subcontractors. We and our portfolio companies are subject to risks relating to increased prices of raw materials and disrupted supply chains, which may result in our portfolio companies being unable to purchase necessary materials at a reasonable price or at all, and may cause our portfolio companies to raise end consumer prices of any produces or services. Our insurance coverage, including any insurance coverage held by our portfolio companies, may not cover all potential losses and there are no guarantees that we or our portfolio companies can retain such insurance coverage at a reasonable cost or at all. Potential divestments of our portfolio companies may give rise to us becoming subject to additional risks and costs. We and our portfolio companies could be subject to increased regulation or changes in regulatory regimes which will impact our financial performance. The industries we serve can be seasonal, cyclical and affected by weather conditions, the combined effects of which can adversely impact our results of operations. A portion of our future growth is based on the ability and willingness of public and private entities to invest in infrastructure. Our business will be adversely affected if we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights from unauthorized use or infringement by third parties. Our results of operations may vary significantly from period to period due to fluctuations in our operating costs and other factors. Our operating and financial results forecast relies in large part on assumptions and analyses that we have developed. If these assumptions or analyses prove to be incorrect, our actual operating and financial results may be significantly below our forecasts. Our forecasts are predicated on maintaining our current acquisition pipeline. Failure to maintain this pipeline, or if acquisitions are different than we've predicted, our financial results may be negatively effected.#4646 Selected Risk Factors Risks Related to the Company's Employees and Human Resources There are no guarantees that we are able to retain and recruit key personnel, including our senior management, and other employees to meet current or future needs at all or at a reasonable cost. There are no guarantees that our portfolio companies will be able to retain and recruit key personnel, including senior management, and other employees to meet current or future needs at all or at a reasonable cost. . ● ● Risks Related to Litigation and Regulation We are subject to evolving laws and regulations that could impose substantial costs, legal prohibitions or unfavorable changes upon our operations, and any failure to comply with these laws and regulations, including as they evolve, could result in litigation and substantially harm our business and results of operations. We are subject to risks relating to disputes and other legal proceedings that may be time consuming and costly. ● ● ● Risks Related to Indebtedness and Financing Transactions We are subject to financing risks. There are no guarantees that we can meet our financing needs for our operations and future investments at a reasonable cost or at all. We will require a significant amount of cash to service our debt and our ability to generate cash depends on many factors beyond our control and any failure to meet our debt service obligations could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. We are subject to risks relating to increased interest rates and any adverse developments in the credit markets. Our failure to comply with the agreements relating to our outstanding indebtedness, including as a result of events beyond our control, could result in an event of default that could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our debt financing could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations, limit our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry and prevent us from meeting our obligations. ● CHURCHILL CorpAcq CAPITAL VII Risks Related to Tax Unanticipated tax laws or any changes in tax rates or in the application of the existing tax laws to us may adversely impact our results of operations. ● We and our portfolio companies are subject to risks relating to workspace accidents, investigations and claims for compensation as a consequence of compliance deficiencies. We may also be subject to disruptions in the business due to work stoppage and strikes. Misconduct by our employees, subcontractors or partners or our overall failure to comply with laws or regulations could harm our reputation, damage our relationships with customers, reduce our revenue and profits, and subject us to criminal and civil enforcement actions. Risks Related to Churchill If there are substantial redemptions of the cash available from the trust fund of Churchill, there will be a lower public float of outstanding shares of the Post-Combination Company, which may cause further volatility in the price of the Post-Combination Company securities and adversely impact its ability to secure financing following the closing of the proposed transaction. If there are substantial redemptions in connection with the proposed transaction, the Post-Combination Company may need to make significant adjustments to its business plan or seek additional capital. Depending on its available capital resources, the Post-Combination Company may need to delay or discontinue expected near-term expenditures, which could materially impact its business prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows by limiting its ability to pursue some of its other strategic objectives. Securities of companies formed through transactions with special purpose acquisition companies such as ours may experience a material decline in price relative to the share price of such vehicle prior to the transaction. If Churchill is unable to effect an initial business combination by February 17, 2024, it will be forced to liquidate and Churchill's warrants will expire worthless. ● . If we fail in complying with applicable data protection regulations, such as the GDPR, our compliance costs may increase and in the event of compliance deficiencies, we may become subject to significant fines and liable for damages. ● Risks Related to the Post-Combination Company Following the Proposed Transaction If the proposed transaction's benefits do not meet the expectations of investors, stockholders or financial analysts, the market price of the Post-Combination Company's securities may decline. Investors will experience dilution as a result of the issuance of equity securities in the Post-Combination Company as consideration in the potential transaction and may experience dilution from additional sources in connection with and following the proposed transaction, including upon exercise of certain equity securities of the Post-Combination Company The Post-Combination Company's management team will have limited experience managing a public company. The Company and Churchill expect to incur significant transaction costs in connection with the proposed transaction. Whether or not the proposed transaction is completed, the incurrence of these costs will reduce the amount of cash available to be used for other corporate purposes by the Post-Combination Company. The requirements of being a public company may strain the Post-Combination Company's resources and distract its management, which could make it difficult to manage its business. The Post-Combination Company's ability to pay dividends to its shareholders will be restricted by applicable laws and regulations and any future determination relating to its dividend policy will be dependent on a variety of factors, including its financial condition, earnings, legal requirements, its general liquidity needs, and other factors that its board of directors deems relevant.#4747 CHURCHILL CorpAcq CAPITAL VII 5.
