The Registration Statement will be sent to the stockholders of Plum. Plum and Sakuu also will file other documents regarding the proposed transaction with the SEC. Before making any voting decision, investors and security holders of Plum are urged to read the Registration Statement, the proxy statement/prospectus and all other relevant documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed transaction as they become available because they will contain important information about the proposed transaction. Investors and security holders will be able to obtain free copies of the Registration Statement, the proxy statement/prospectus and all other relevant documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC by Plum and Sakuu through the website maintained by the SEC at <u>www.sec.gov</u>.

#### Participants in Solicitation

No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act, or an exemption therefrom.

#### Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws with respect to the proposed transaction between Sakuu and Plum. 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. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Sakuu's expected product offerings, Sakuu's ability to produce its products at a commercial level, the availability of equity or debt financing on acceptable terms, if at all, and the capitalization of Sakuu after giving effect to the proposed business combination. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Current Report on Form 8-K, and on the current expectations of Sakuu's and Plum's management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied upon by any investors as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and

------

assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause Sakuu's and Plum's activities or results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement, including changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the proposed business combination, including the risk that any regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect Sakuu or the expected benefits of the proposed business combination; failure to obtain the approval of the equity holders of Sakuu or Plum; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed business combination; risks related to the rollout of Sakuu's business and the timing of expected business milestones; the effects of competition on Sakuu's business; supply shortages in the materials necessary for the production of Sakuu's products; delays in construction and operation of production facilities; and the amount of redemption requests made by Plum's public equity holders. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this communication. There may be additional risks that neither Sakuu or Plum presently know or that Sakuu and Plum currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the "Risk Factors" section of Plum's Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, the registration statement on Form S-4 and other documents filed by Plum 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 Sakuu and Plum 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 Sakuu nor Plum gives any assurance that either Sakuu or Plum will achieve its expectations.

SAN JOSE, CA and SAN FRANCISCO, CA – (March 2, 2023) – (<u>BUSINESS WIRE</u>)—Sakuu Corporation ("Sakuu"), a transformative additive manufacturing and solid-state battery company, and inventor of the disruptive Kavian<sup>™</sup> platform for the commercial-scale production of next-generation SwiftPrint<sup>™</sup> batteries and other complex active devices, and Plum Acquisition Corp. I ("Plum") (NASDAQ: PLMI), a special purpose acquisition company ("SPAC") formed by Ursula Burns, Kanishka Roy, and Mike Dinsdale, today announced that they have entered into a definitive business combination agreement, providing for a merger that will result in Sakuu becoming a publicly traded company. Upon the closing of the proposed transaction, the combined company (the "Company") will be renamed Sakuu Holdings Inc. and is expected to be listed on a US national exchange under the ticker symbol "SAKU." The transaction implies an enterprise value of approximately USD $705 million.

------

Founded in 2016, Sakuu is commercializing next-generation lithium (Li) metal batteries and Li-metal all-solid-state batteries to be mass-produced via proprietary multi-material, multi-process additive manufacturing technologies. In pioneering SwiftPrint<sup>™</sup> solid-state batteries from its Kavian<sup>™</sup> additive manufacturing platform, Sakuu solves fundamental challenges that are known to impede commercial-scale production of solid-state batteries. Further benefits from SwiftPrint<sup>™</sup> batteries include custom form factors and sizes, energy density gains, recyclability, and anticipated process, material, and energy efficiencies when compared to traditional battery manufacturing methods. Sakuu intends to license its battery chemistries and sell its Kavian<sup>™</sup> platforms to companies seeking to deploy cleaner, better, and more cost-effective energy at scale. Samples of Sakuu's safe, non-flammable high energy density Li-metal anode battery have undergone evaluation and testing by customers in multiple markets since the third quarter of 2021.

With the Kavian<sup>™</sup> platform, and across its battery product lines, Sakuu intends to first serve the next-generation solid-state battery needs for broad industries, such as e-mobility, grid energy storage, aerospace, industrial, consumer electronics and electric vehicles (EVs).

**Management Commentary** 

Sakuu Founder and Chief Executive Officer Robert Bagheri stated, "The arrival of transformative additive manufacturing will have profound implications across global legacy manufacturing. Our high-volume Kavian solution for printing batteries can potentially leap-frog decades of manufacturing stagnation. We believe Kavian is the only known solution for producing heavily in-demand products, such as solid-state batteries, that can be custom-printed rapidly and cost-effectively—taking next-generation battery manufacturing to realms never imagined. Since 2016, our talented team, with deep and diverse industry expertise, has worked diligently to develop Kavian, along with our next-generation battery products. We are not a concept company—we have successfully and consistently printed high-performance batteries since December 2022 and, with this progress, we have entered the first stages of commercialization. With this proposed merger, the strong support of the exceptional leadership team at Plum, and our dedicated investors, we feel Sakuu is well-positioned to create a paradigm shift in complex manufacturing, starting first with batteries."

Plum Chairwoman Ursula Burns stated, "I've always been fascinated by fundamental step changes in approach that unlock significant value in otherwise incrementally evolving industries. Sakuu represents an opportunity for such a fundamental step change in manufacturing through its high-volume, multi-material, additive manufacturing Kavian platform – something that has impressed even a printing industry veteran like me. Solid-state batteries, and the massive addressable market associated with it, could just be Act 1 for the Company. We believe its technology has already allowed it to leapfrog many more highly capitalized battery suppliers. Plum is honored and excited to partner with Sakuu for its long-term journey in the public markets."

**Sakuu Investment Highlights** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Sakuu has existing purchase orders totaling over USD $300 million in 2023-2025* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Sakuu has a world-class management team with exceptional collective experience in the technology space, successfully scaling complex commercial manufacturing, and a proven track record of driving innovation, growth, revenue, and capital stewardship.* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *The Company anticipates raising approximately USD $100 million in private and public capital as a lead up to and as part of the closing of the transaction, including from structured debt and equity solutions, secured debt and Plum Acquisition Corp. I's cash in trust.* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *The transaction implies a pre-money equity value of approximately USD $600 million.* 

**Transaction Overview** 

The proposed business combination transaction is anticipated to result in gross proceeds of approximately USD $100 million in cash to the Company's post-combination balance sheet after the payment of transaction expenses, even in a 95% redemption scenario, through a combination of private and public capital, including from structured debt and equity solutions, secured debt, and Plum Acquisition Corp. I's cash in trust.

The business combination values the combined Company at an approximate pro forma enterprise value of USD $705 million, including the impact of the anticipated financing sources. Funds from the transaction are expected to fully support the Company through its commercialization process. Sakuu's current equity holders are expected to own approximately 80% of the pro forma Company.

The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2023 and remains subject to approval by Plum stockholders representing a majority of the outstanding Plum voting power, the effectiveness of a registration statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in connection with the transaction, the expiration of the HSR Act waiting period and other customary closing conditions. The Boards of Directors of both Sakuu and Plum have unanimously approved the contemplated transaction.

Additional information about the proposed transaction, including a copy of the merger agreement and investor presentation, will be provided in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by Plum with the SEC and available at <u>www.sec.gov</u>. Plum will file a registration statement (which will contain a proxy statement/prospectus) with the SEC in connection with the transaction.
