The words “ anticipate,” “believe,” continue,” “ could,” “ estimate,” “ expect,” “ intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “ should,” “ strive,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward- looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that statement is not forward looking. 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. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of Motive’s registration statement on Form S-1, the proxy statement/prospectus contained in Motive's Registration Statement on Form S-4 relating to the business combination filed by Motive with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and other documents filed by Motive 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 Motive and Forge 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 Motive nor Forge gives any assurance that either Motive or Forge will achieve its expectations. 2

Financial Data and Use of Projections and Illustrative Presentations The financial information and operating metrics contained in this presentation are unaudited and do not conform to Regulation S-X. Such information and data may not be included in, may be adjusted in or may be presented differently in the registration statement filed by Motive relating to the business combination and the proxy statement/prospectus contained therein, and remains subject to amendment and change. You should read carefully and rely only on the registration statement on Form S-4 filed by Motive related to the business combination and the proxy statement/prospectus contained therein, including any amendments and supplements thereto, as well as all other information filed or furnished by Motive with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial projections, estimates, targets and illustrative presentations in this presentation are forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond Motive’s and Forge’s control. While all financial projections, estimates, targets and illustrative presentations are necessarily speculative, Motive and Forge believe that the preparation of prospective or illustrative financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection, estimate, target or illustrative presentation extends from the date of preparation. The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected, expected or target 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 financial projections, estimates and targets. The inclusion of financial projections, estimates, targets and illustrative presentations in this presentation should not be regarded as an indication that Motive and Forge, or their representatives, considered or consider the financial projections, estimates, targets and illustrative presentation to be a reliable predictions of future events. Further, illustrative presentations are not necessarily based on management projections, estimates, expectations or targets but are presented for illustrative purposes only. The projections were prepared in good faith by Forge’s management in July 2021 connection with Motive's evaluation of the potential business combination with Forge and based on their reasonable best estimates and assumptions with respect to the expected future financial performance of Forge at the time such projections were prepared and speak only as of that time. Neither Motive, Forge nor any of their respective affiliates intends to, and, except to the extent required by applicable law, each of them expressly disclaims any obligation to, update, revise or correct the projections to reflect circumstances existing or arising after the date such projections were generated or to reflect the occurrence of future events, even in the event that any or all of the assumptions underlying the projections are shown to be in error or any of the projections otherwise would not be realized. The financial projections, estimates, targets and illustrative presentations contained herein were based on numerous variables and assumptions made by Forge management at the time prepared with respect to matters specific to Forge, and are subject to change. The Forge management team considered the following material estimates and hypothetical assumptions with respect to the development of the projected financial information contained herein: projected 20-26% growth of revenue less transaction-based expenses through 2023; and assumed capitalization of internally developed software starting in 2022. In developing the projections and the material estimates and hypothetical assumptions with respect to revenue less transaction-based expenses growth rates, Forge management considered, among other things, the following assumptions: continued expansion in the number of private companies traded on Forge's platform, along with additional employee interest in liquidity options for existing customers; corresponding growth in opportunities for Forge Company Services to assist these growing private companies with liquidity programs for employees and investors; increased customer base through expanded marketing programs and increased brand awareness of Forge's product offerings; expanded geographic opportunities arising out of the growth in private company unicorns globally in primary overseas markets in Asia and Europe; continued improvement in technology, increasing efficiency and productivity; growth in Forge Trust accounts, driving increase in custodial revenue opportunities; and growth in revenue from Forge's recently launched Forge Data product offering.

Financial Data and Use of Projections and Illustrative Presentations (cont.) These assumptions and estimates are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those identified herein and in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 under the heading “Risk Factors” and elsewhere and in other information filed or furnished from time to time by Motive with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Motive and Forge undertake no obligation to, and expressly disclaim any obligation to, publicly release any updates or any changes in their expectations, or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which the projections, estimates, targets and illustrative presentations or any other forward-looking statement contained herein is based. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Metrics This presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures (including on a forward-looking basis) such as Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures are an addition to, and not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP counterparts are included in the Appendix to this presentation. Forge believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results (including on a forward-looking basis) provide useful supplemental information to investors about Forge. Forge’s management uses forward-looking non-GAAP measures to evaluate Forge’s projected financials and operating performance. In addition, other companies may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore, Forge’s non-GAAP measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Use of Other Data The data contained herein is derived from various internal and external sources. All of the market data in the presentation involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and there can be no guarantee as to the accuracy or reliability of such assumptions. Further, no representation is made as to the reasonableness of the assumptions made within or the accuracy or completeness of any projections or modeling or any other information contained herein.
