Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements herein may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or FiscalNote's future financial or operating performance. Statements regarding FiscalNote's financial outlook for future periods, expectations regarding profitability, capital resources and anticipated growth in the industry in which FiscalNote operates are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "pro forma," "may," "should," "could," "might," "plan," "possible,"

"project," "strive," "budget," "forecast," "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 important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that may impact such forward-looking statements include FiscalNote's ability to effectively manage its growth; changes in FiscalNote's strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenue and losses, forecasts, projected costs, prospects and plans; the terms of any proposal FiscalNote may receive for a go-private transaction; the impact of the previous announcement of the formation of the Special Committee and its strategic review on FiscalNote's business and its ability to implement any transaction; FiscalNote's future capital requirements; demand for FiscalNote's services and the drivers of that demand; FiscalNote's ability to attract and retain customers, and expand its offerings with existing customers; FiscalNote's ability to successfully execute its acquisition strategy; FiscalNote's ability to develop, enhance, and integrate its existing platforms, products, and services; risks associated with international operations; potential technical disruptions, cyberattacks, security, privacy or data breaches or other technical or security incidents; competition and competitive pressures; FiscalNote's ability to retain or recruit key personnel; the outcome of any known and unknown litigation and regulatory proceedings; and FiscalNote's ability to adequately protect its intellectual property rights.

These and other factors discussed in FiscalNote's SEC filings, including its most recent reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, particularly the "Risk Factors" sections of those reports, could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made herein. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by FiscalNote and its management, are inherently uncertain. Nothing herein should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will occur 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 made. FiscalNote undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

Why It Matters

Boards and CEOs Face

Increasing Global Regulations

and Uncertainty

Regulatory

Pressure

  • Broadly speaking, I think, we as a sector need to do a better job clarifying with policymakers that, in order to invest in innovation…we need a pricing environment that rewards innovation, particularly when it improves outcomes for patients."
  • CEO Vas Narasimhan Q4 2022 Earnings Call
  • Higher interest rates lead to the economy running leaner, more geopolitical instability leads to more volatility, and increased regulation leads to slower growth and increased costs of innovation…given this outlook, we'll need to operate more efficiently than our previous headcount reduction to ensure success."
  • CEO Mark Zuckerberg 2023 Memo to Employees
  • Political instability, changes to the regulatory environment or taxation, international trade disputes and barriers to free trade, international sanctions, expropriation or nationalization of property, civil strife, strikes, insurrections, acts of terrorism, acts of war and public health situations…may disrupt or curtail our operations or development activities."
  • BP 2020 Annual Report
  • We need governments to provide clear pathways and a consistent taxonomy for sustainability policy, regulation, and disclosure across markets."
  • CEO Larry Fink
