Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, that are intended to be covered by the “safe
harbor” created by those sections. Forward-looking statements,
which are based on certain assumptions and describe our future

the use of forward-looking terms such as “believe,” “expect,”
“may,” “should,” “could,” “seek,” “intend,” “plan,” “goal,”

the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. All statements
other than statements of historical facts included in this press

nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only
on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the
future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections,
anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future
conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the
future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and
changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of
which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial
condition may differ materially from those indicated in the
forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any
of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could
cause our actual results and financial condition to differ
materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements
include, among others, the following: the trading of our ordinary
shares or warrants and the development of a liquid trading market;
our ability to successfully market our products and services; the
acceptance of our products and services by customers; our continued
ability to pay operating costs and ability to meet demand for our
products and services; the amount and nature of competition from
other security and telecom products and services; the effects of
changes in the cybersecurity and telecom markets; our ability to
successfully develop new products and services; our success
establishing and maintaining collaborative, strategic alliance
agreements, licensing and supplier arrangements; our ability to
comply with applicable regulations; and the other risks and
uncertainties described in our annual report on Form 20-F for the
year ended December 31, 2023, filed on March 15, 2024 and our other
filings with the SEC, including the registration statement on Form
F-1, as amended (File No. 333-284023). We undertake no obligation
to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written
