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. SRNG's and Ginkgo'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. Words such as "expect," "estimate," "project," "budget," "forecast," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "may," "will," "could," "should," "believes," "predicts," "potential," "continue," and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, SRNG's and Ginkgo's expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial impacts of the Transaction, the satisfaction of closing conditions to the Transaction and the timing of the completion of the Transaction. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the "Risk Factors" section of SRNG's registration statement on Form S-1. In addition, there will be risks and uncertainties described in the proxy statement/prospectus on Form S-4 relating to the Transaction, which is expected to be filed by Ginkgo with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), and other documents filed by SRNG from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Most of these factors are outside SRNG's and Ginkgo's control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against SRNG or Ginkgo following the announcement of the Transaction; (2) the inability to complete the Transaction, including due to the inability to concurrently close the business combination and the private placement of common stock or due to failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of SRNG; (3) delays in obtaining, adverse conditions contained in, or the inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals, or delays in completing regulatory reviews, required to complete the Transaction; (4) the risk that the Transaction disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Transaction; (5) the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Transaction, 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 Transaction; (7) changes in the applicable laws or regulations; (8) the possibility that the combined company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (9) the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic; (10) the risks described in the Appendix hereto; and (11) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time described in SRNG's registration on Form S-1, including those under "Risk Factors" therein, and in SRNG's other filings with the SEC. SRNG and Ginkgo 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. Neither SRNG nor Ginkgo undertakes or accepts any 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 and Market Data In this presentation, SRNG and Ginkgo rely on and refer to certain information and statistics regarding the markets and industries in which Ginkgo competes. Such information and statistics are based on Ginkgo's management's estimates and/or obtained from third-party sources, including reports by market research firms and company filings. While Ginkgo believes such third-party information is reliable, there can be no assurance as to the accuracy or completeness of the indicated information. Neither Ginkgo nor SRNG has independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information provided by the third-party sources. 2
