Forward-Looking Statements: This presentation includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Rubicon's and Combined Co's actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.

These forward-looking statements also involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted in connection with any proposed business combination; (2) the inability to complete any proposed business combination; (3) delays in obtaining, adverse conditions contained in, or the inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals or complete regulatory reviews required to complete any business combination; (4) the risk that any proposed business combination disrupts current plans and operations; (5) the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of any proposed business combination, 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 key employees; (6) costs related to the any proposed business combination; (7) changes in the applicable laws or regulations; (8) the possibility that Rubicon or Combined Co may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (9) the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic; and (10) other risks and uncertainties separately provided to you and indicated from time to time described in filings and potential filings by Rubicon, SPAC and Combined Co with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Rubicon and SPAC caution that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive and not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, including projections, which speak only as of the date made. Rubicon and SPAC undertake no obligation to and accepts no obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. Industry, Market Data and Partnerships: In this presentation, Rubicon and SPAC rely on and refers to certain information and statistics regarding the markets and industries in which Rubicon competes. Such information and statistics are based on management's estimates and/or obtained from third-party sources, including reports by market research firms and company filings. While Rubicon and SPAC believe such third-party information is reliable, there can be no assurance as to the accuracy or completeness of the indicated information. Rubicon and SPAC have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information provided by the third-party sources. This Presentation contains descriptions of certain key business partnerships with Rubicon. These descriptions are based on the Rubicon management team's discussion with such counterparties, certain non-binding written agreements and the latest available information and estimates as of the date of this Presentation. These descriptions are subject to negotiation and execution of definitive agreements with certain of such counterparties which have not been completed as of the date of this Presentation. Private Placement: The securities to which this presentation relates have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. This presentation relates to securities that Rubicon would intend to offer in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable laws. These exemptions apply to offers and sales of securities that do not involve a public offering. The securities have not been approved or recommended by any federal, state or foreign securities authorities, nor have any of these authorities passed upon the merits of this offering or determined that this presentation is accurate or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. Confidentiality: The distribution and use by each recipient of the information contained in this Presentation and any other information provided to the recipient by or on behalf of Rubicon is governed by the Confidentiality Agreement ("Confidentiality Agreement"), a copy of which has been executed and delivered by each recipient and which strictly limits the circulation and copying of the information contained in this Presentation. If you have not executed and delivered such a Confidentiality Agreement, you have received this Presentation in error. If so, please notify Rubicon immediately, and return this Presentation to us. Except as provided in such Confidentiality Agreement, this Presentation may not be distributed, reproduced or used without the express consent of Rubicon or for any other purpose than the preliminary evaluation of a potential transaction by the person to whom this Presentation has been delivered. No Offer or Solicitation This Presentation is not intended to, and shall not constitute (i) a solicitation of a proxy, vote, consent, approval, or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the proposed business combination or (ii) an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy or a recommendation to purchase any security of Rubicon, SPAC or any of their respective affiliates, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") or in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. You should not construe the contents of this Presentation as legal, tax, accounting or investment advice or a recommendation. You should consult your own counsel and tax and financial advisors as to legal, financial, and related matters concerning the matters described herein, and, by accepting this Presentation, you confirm that you are not relying upon the information contained herein to make any decision. The distribution of this Presentation may also be restricted by law and persons into whose possession this Presentation comes should inform themselves about and observe any such restrictions. The recipient acknowledges that it is (a) aware that the United States securities laws prohibit any person who has material, non-public information concerning a company from purchasing or selling securities of such company or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities, and (b) familiar with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the "Exchange Act"), and that the recipient will neither use, nor cause any third party to use, this Presentation or any information contained herein in contravention of the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 thereunder. Any private offering of securities in connection with the PIPE Offering (the "Securities") will not be registered under the Securities Act, and will be offered and sold only to "qualified institutional buyers" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) and institutional "accredited investors" (as defined in Rule 501(a) (1), (2), (3) or (7) promulgated under the Securities Act). Accordingly, until registered for resale, the Securities must continue to be held until a subsequent disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Investors should consult with their counsel as to the applicable requirements for a purchaser to avail itself of any exemption from registration under the Securities Act. The transfer of the Securities may also be subject to conditions set forth in an agreement under which they are to be issued. Investors should be aware that they might be required to bear the final risk of their investment for an indefinite period of time. Neither SPAC nor Rubicon is making an offer of the Securities in any state or jurisdiction where the offer is not permitted. RUBICON 1#3Disclaimer (Continued) THIS PRESENTATION IS BEING DISTRIBUTED TO SELECTED RECIPIENTS ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED FOR DISTRIBUTION TO, OR USE BY ANY PERSON OR ENTITY IN, ANY JURISDICTION OR COUNTRY WHERE SUCH DISTRIBUTION OR USE WOULD BE CONTRARY TO APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATION. AS OF THE DATE HEREOF, NONE OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN HAS BEEN FILED WITH THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, ANY SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR UNDER ANY SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY U.S. OR NON-U.S. JURISDICTION OR ANY OTHER U.S. OR NON-U.S. GOVERNMENTAL OR SELF-REGULATORY AUTHORITY. NO SUCH GOVERNMENTAL OR SELF- REGULATORY AUTHORITY WILL PASS ON THE MERITS OF THE PIPE OFFERING OR OTHER OFFERING OF INTERESTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS UNLAWFUL. This Presentation and information contained herein constitutes confidential information and is provided to you on the condition that you agree that you will hold it in strict confidence and not reproduce, disclose, forward or distribute it in whole or in part without the prior written consent of Rubicon and SPAC and is intended for the recipient hereof only. By accepting this Presentation, each recipient further agrees to return or destroy all copies of this Presentation or portions thereof in its possession following the request for the return or destruction of such copies. As it pertains to the PIPE Offering, in the event of any conflict between this Presentation and information contained in the Offering Documents, the information in the Offering Documents will control and supersede the information contained in this Presentation. No person has been authorized to make any statement concerning SPAC and Rubicon other than as will be set forth in the Offering Documents, and any representation or information not contained therein may not be relied upon. An investment in the PIPE Offering should be made only after careful review of the information contained in the Offering Documents. No Relationship or Joint Venture Nothing contained in this Presentation will be deemed or construed to create the relationship of partnership, association, principal and agent or joint venture. This Presentation does not create any obligation on the part of either SPAC, Rubicon or the recipient to enter into any further agreement or arrangement. Unless and until a definitive agreement has been fully executed and delivered, no contract or agreement providing for a transaction will be deemed to exist and none of SPAC, Rubicon or the recipient will be under any legal obligation of any kind whatsoever. Accordingly, this Presentation is not intended to create for any party a right of specific performance or a right to seek any payment or damages for failure, for any reason, to complete the proposed business combination contemplated herein. Use of Projections This Presentation contains projected financial information with respect to Rubicon. Such projected financial information constitutes forward-looking information, and is for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of future results. Further, illustrative presentations are not necessarily based on management's projections, estimates, expectations, or targets but are presented for illustrative purposes only. Rubicon's independent auditors have not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the projections for the purpose of their inclusion in this Presentation, and accordingly, they did not express an opinion or provide any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this Presentation. The assumptions and estimates underlying such financial forecast information are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic, competitive and other risks and uncertainties. See "Forward-Looking Statements" below. Actual results may differ materially from the results contemplated by the financial forecast information contained in this Presentation, and the inclusion of such information in this Presentation is not intended, and should not be regarded, as a representation by any person that the results reflected in such forecasts will be achieved. Further, the metrics referenced in this Presentation regarding select aspects of Rubicon's operations were selected by SPAC and Rubicon on a subjective basis. Such metrics are provided solely for illustrative purposes to demonstrate elements of Rubicon's business, are incomplete, and are not necessarily indicative of Rubicon's performance or future performance or overall operations. There can be no assurance that historical trends will continue. Any investment in the PIPE Offering entails a high degree of risk and no assurance can be given that investors will receive a return on their capital and investors could lose part or all of their investment. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This Presentation includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") including, but not limited to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA"), EBITDA adjusted for various non-recurring items ("Adjusted EBITDA") and certain ratios and other metrics derived therefrom. Note that other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and therefore such financial measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing the Rubicon'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 GAAP. You should be aware that Rubicon's Presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Rubicon believes these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Rubicon's financial condition and results of operations. Rubicon 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 in Rubicon, and in comparing Rubicon's financial measures with those of other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which items of expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to footnotes where presented on each page of this Presentation or to the tables therein for a reconciliation of these measures to what Rubicon believes are the most directly comparable measure evaluated in accordance with GAAP. This Presentation also includes certain projections of non-GAAP financial measures. Rubicon does not provide reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, or Adjusted EBITDA margin (the result obtained from dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue) to net income on a forward-looking basis because Rubicon is unable to forecast the amount or significance of certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts. These items include gains or losses on sale or consolidation transactions, accelerated depreciation, impairment charges, gains or losses on retirement of debt, variations in effective tax rate, and fluctuations in net working capital, which are difficult to predict and estimate and are primarily dependent on future events, but which are excluded from Rubicon's calculations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Operating Free Cash Flow, and Operating Free Cash Flow Margin. Certain monetary amounts, percentages and other figures included in this Presentation have been subject to rounding adjustments. We expect the variability of these items could have a significant impact on our reported GAAP financial results. Certain other amounts that appear in this Presentation may not sum due to rounding. In connection with the contemplated filing by SPAC of a proxy statement / prospectus on Form S-4 with respect to the proposed business combination, and in the course of the review by the SEC of such proxy statement / prospectus, SPAC may make changes to the information presented in this Presentation, including, without limitation, the description of Rubicon's business and the financial information and other data (including the prospective financial information and other data) included in this Presentation. Comments by the SEC on information in the proxy statement/prospectus may require modification or reformulation of the information we present in this Presentation, and any such modification or reformulation could be significant. In particular, we note that the SEC has adopted certain rules regarding the use of Adjusted EBITDA and other financial measures that do not comply with GAAP in the United States, which rules will be applicable to the proxy statement / prospectus expected to be filed with respect to the proposed business combination. RUBICON 2#4Disclaimer (Continued) Trademarks This Presentation contains trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights of Rubicon and other companies, which are the property of their respective owners. Solely for convenience, some of the trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights referred to in this Presentation may be listed without the TM, SMⒸ or ® symbols, but Rubicon and SPAC will assert, to the fullest extent under applicable law, the rights of the applicable owners, if any, to these trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights.

Inclusion of such logos does not necessarily imply affiliation with or endorsement by such firms or businesses. There is no guarantee that either SPAC or Rubicon will work, or continue to work, with any of the firms or businesses whose logos are included herein in the future. SPAC intends to file with the SEC a proxy statement / prospectus on Form S-4 relating to the proposed business combination, which will be mailed to its shareholders once definitive.

RUBICON 3#5Risk Factors Summary Certain factors may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our business. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that event, the trading price of our common stock following the business combination could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment. Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry We have a history of net losses and project net losses in future periods. We may not appropriately manage our expenses, nor achieve nor maintain profitability in the future. We may be unable to manage our growth effectively. The waste and recycling industry is highly competitive, and if we cannot successfully compete in the marketplace, our business, financial condition and operating results may be materially adversely affected. Weakness in the U.S. economy may expose us to credit risk for amounts due from governmental entities, large national accounts, industrial customers and others. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected our business and may continue to do so in the future. Our sales cycles can be long and unpredictable, and our sales efforts require considerable investment of time and expense. If our sales cycle lengthens or we invest substantial resources pursuing unsuccessful sales opportunities, our operating results and growth would be harmed. We may have environmental liabilities that are not covered by our insurance, regardless of whether we are at fault. If we fail to continue to improve and enhance the functionality, performance, reliability, design, security, or scalability of our platform in a manner that responds to our customers' evolving needs, our business may be adversely affected. Quality problems, defects, errors, failures, or vulnerabilities in our software solutions or services could harm our reputation and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. A large percentage of our revenue is tied to a small number of customers, such that losing any one of those customers could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Our business depends on customers using our platform, and any loss of customers or decline in their use of our platform could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. 12. Some clients may elect to terminate our contracts and manage operations internally. 13. Selling products and services into the public sector poses unique challenges. 14. If we fail to attract and retain qualified management and skilled technical personnel, our business may be adversely affected. 15. The success of our business depends, in part, on our ability to execute on our customer acquisition strategy. 16. Any inability to successfully integrate our recent or future acquisitions, or realize their anticipated benefits, could have a material adverse effect on us. 17. Our international operations subject us to additional risks that could adversely affect our business. 18. Our substantial levels of indebtedness could adversely affect our business. 19. The terms and covenants in our existing indebtedness restrict our ability to engage in some business and financial transactions, which could adversely affect our business. Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Securities 20. We may not meet the expectations of the market or achieve the valuation indicated in our business combination. 21. The price of our securities may be volatile and may trade significantly below the price you pay for them. Risks Relating to Third-Party Relationships 22. Our customers and the third parties with whom we contract are participants in the waste and recycling industry and are therefore subject to a number of unique risks specific to this industry, which directly or indirectly subjects our business to many of the same risks to which their respective operations are subject. If our security measures or those of our third-party cloud data hosts, cloud computing platform providers, or third-party service partners are breached and unauthorized access is obtained to an account's data, our data or our IT systems, our services may be perceived as not being secure, accounts may curtail or stop using our services, and we may incur significant legal and financial exposure and liabilities. 24. We and certain of our third-party partners, service providers, and subprocessors transmit and store personal information of our customers and consumers. If the security of this information is compromised or is otherwise accessed without authorization, our reputation may be harmed and we may be exposed to liability and loss of business. 23. Risks Relating to the Use of Technology and Intellectual Property 25. We may be unable to protect our proprietary rights. 26. We rely on software licensed from, and services rendered by, third parties in order to provide our modules and run our business. Material portions of our business require the Internet infrastructure to be reliable. 27. Risks Relating to Litigation 28. Future litigation or governmental proceedings could result in material adverse consequences, including judgments or settlements. RUBICON 4#6Agenda RUBICON 1. Founder SPAC Overview 2.
