Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes, and oral statements made from time to time
by representatives of FTOC and Payoneer may be considered, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe
harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally relate
to future events or FTOC’s, Payoneer’s or New Starship Parent Inc.’s future financial or operating performance. For
example, projections of future Volume, Revenue, and Operating Income are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking
statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,”
“estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue,”
or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties,
and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by FTOC and its management,
and Payoneer 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 Reorganization; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against FTOC, Payoneer,
New Starship Parent Inc. or others following the announcement of the Reorganization and any definitive agreements with respect thereto;
(3) the inability to complete the Reorganization due to the failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of FTOC, to obtain financing
to complete the Reorganization or to satisfy other conditions to closing; (4) changes to the proposed structure of the Reorganization
that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations or as a condition to obtaining regulatory approval of
the Reorganization; (5) the ability to meet applicable listing standards following the consummation of the Reorganization; (6) the risk
that the Reorganization disrupts current plans and operations of Payoneer as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Reorganization;
(7) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Reorganization, 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; (8) costs related to the Reorganization; (9) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (10) the possibility
that Payoneer or the combined Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business and/or competitive factors; (11) Payoneer’s
estimates of its financial performance; and (12) other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors”
and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in FTOC’s Prospectus dated August 25, 2020 filed with the
SEC on August 26, 2020, the section entitled “Risk Factors” in FTOC’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly
period ended September 30, 2020, as well as any further risks and uncertainties contained in the definitive proxy statement / prospectus
filed by FTOC and New Starship Parent Inc. on June 1, 2021. Nothing in this press release 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. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are
