Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Statements included in this communication which are not historical in nature or do not relate to current facts are intended to be, and are hereby identified as, forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements are based on, among other things, Twin Vee management’s and Forza management’s beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the financial services industry, the economy and Twin Vee and Forza. Words and phrases such as “may,” “approximately,” “continue,” “should,” “expects,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “is likely,” “look ahead,” “look forward,” “believes,” “will,” “intends,” “estimates,” “strategy,” “plan,” “could,” “potential,” “possible” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements may include projections of, or guidance on, the Twin Vee’s or the combined company’s future financial performance, asset quality, capital levels, expected levels of future expenses, including future credit losses, anticipated growth strategies, descriptions of new business initiatives and anticipated trends in the Twin Vee’s business or financial results. Twin Vee and Forza caution readers that forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict with regard to, among other things, timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence, which could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, the following possibilities: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the definitive merger agreement entered into between Twin Vee and Forza; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Twin Vee or Forza; the failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals (and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the Merger) and shareholder approvals or to satisfy any of the other conditions to the Merger on a timely basis or at all; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the Merger are not realized when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where Twin Vee and Forza do business; the possibility that the Merger may be more expensive to complete than anticipated; diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the Merger; changes in Twin Vee’s share price before the closing of the Merger; risks relating to the potential dilutive effect of shares of Twin Vee common stock to be issued in the Merger; and other factors that may affect future results of Twin Vee, Forza and the combined company. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in Twin Vee’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, Forza’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, Twin Vee’s and Forza’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, and in other documents Twin Vee and Forza file with the SEC, which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this communication are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to herein. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if Twin Vee’s or Forza’s underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what Twin Vee and Forza anticipate. Twin Vee and Forza caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made and are based on information available at that time. Neither Twin Vee nor Forza assumes any obligation to update or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements were made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by federal securities laws.
