Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains certain forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the federal securities laws with respect to the proposed transaction between NewHold Investment Corp. (“NewHold”)
and Evolv Technologies, Inc. (“Evolv”). These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,”
“project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,”
“future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,”
“would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations
and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements in this document, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the transaction
may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of NewHold’s securities, (iii) the
failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the transaction, including the adoption of the Agreement and Plan of Merger,
dated as of March 5, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among NewHold, Evolv and NHIC Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware
corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of NewHold, by the stockholders of NewHold, the satisfaction of the minimum trust
account amount following redemptions by NewHold’s public stockholders and the receipt of certain governmental and regulatory
approvals, (iv) the lack of a third party valuation in determining whether or not to pursue the transaction, (v) the inability
to complete the PIPE investment in connection with the transaction, (vi) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance
that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement, (vii) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transaction
on Evolv Aviation’s business relationships, operating results and business generally, (viii) risks that the proposed transaction
disrupts current plans and operations of Evolv and potential difficulties in Evolv employee retention as a result of the transaction,
(ix) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Evolv or against NewHold related to the Merger Agreement
or the transaction, (x) the ability to maintain the listing of NewHold’s securities on a national securities exchange, (xi)
the price of NewHold’s securities may be volatile due to a variety of factors, including changes in the competitive and highly
regulated industries in which NewHold plans to operate or Evolv operates, variations in operating performance across competitors,
changes in laws and regulations affecting NewHold’s or Evolv’s business and changes in the combined capital structure,
(xii) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the transaction, and identify
and realize additional opportunities, and (xiii) the risk of downturns and a changing regulatory landscape in Evolv’s highly
competitive industry. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and
the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of NewHold’s registration on Form S-1
(File No. 333-239822), the registration statement on Form S-4 discussed above and other documents filed by NewHold 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. Forward-looking statements speak only as of
the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and except as required by
law NewHold and Evolv assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Neither NewHold nor Evolv gives any assurance that either NewHold or Evolv
or the combined company will achieve its expectations.
Any financial projections in this communication are forward-looking
statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which
are beyond NewHold’s and Evolv’s control. While all projections are necessarily speculative, NewHold and Evolv believe
that the preparation of prospective financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the
projection extends from the date of preparation. The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected results are inherently
uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the projections. The inclusion of projections in this communication
should not be regarded as an indication that NewHold and Evolv, or their representatives, considered or consider the projections
to be a reliable prediction of future events.
