Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this communication, including, without limitation: (i) the risk that the Proposed Transaction may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Colombier's securities, (ii) the risk that the Proposed Transaction may not be completed by Colombier's business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline if sought by Colombier, (iii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Proposed Transaction, including, among others, the condition that Colombier has cash or cash equivalents of at least $33 million (subject to reduction for (x) transaction expenses of Colombier and PublicSq., up to an aggregate of $15 million, and (y) the aggregate amount of any private financing transactions by PublicSq. consummated prior to closing in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement), and the requirement that the definitive agreement related to the business combination between Colombier and PublicSq. (the "**Merger Agreement**") and the transactions contemplated thereby be approved by the stockholders of Colombier and by the stockholders of PublicSq., respectively, (iv) the failure to obtain regulatory approvals, as applicable, required to consummate the Proposed Transaction, (v) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement, (vi) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the Proposed Transaction on PublicSq.'s business relationships, operating results, and business generally, (vii) risks that the Proposed Transaction disrupts current plans and operations of PublicSq., (viii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against PublicSq. or against Colombier related to the Merger Agreement or the Proposed Transaction, (ix) the ability to maintain the listing of Colombier's securities on a national securities exchange, (x) changes in the competitive market in which PublicSq. operates, variations in performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting PublicSq.'s business and changes in the combined capital structure, (xi) the ability to implement business plans, growth, marketplace and other expectations after the completion of the Proposed Transaction, and identify and realize additional opportunities, (xiii) the potential inability of PublicSq. to achieve its business and customer growth and technical development plans, (xiv) the ability of PublicSq. to enforce its current or future intellectual property, including patents and trademarks, along with potential claims of infringement by PublicSq. of the intellectual property rights of others, (xv) risk of loss of key influencers, media outlets and promoters of PublicSq.'s business or a loss of reputation of PublicSq. or reduced interest in the mission and values of PublicSq. and the segment of the consumer marketplace it intends to serve and (xvi) the risk of economic downturn, increased competition, a changing regulatory landscape and related impacts that could occur in the highly competitive consumer marketplace, both online and through "bricks and mortar" operations. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. Recipients should carefully consider such factors and the other risks and uncertainties described and to be described in the "Risk Factors" section of Colombier's initial public offering prospectus filed with the SEC on June 9, 2021, Colombier's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 22, 2022 and subsequent periodic reports filed by Colombier with the SEC, the Registration Statement to be filed by Colombier in connection with the Proposed Transaction and other documents filed or to be filed by Colombier from time to time with the SEC.

*PublicSq. Founder and CEO Michael Seifert to retain majority voting rights and continue to steer mission of becoming the nation's leading values-aligned marketplace* 

 

**Palm Beach, FL. – February 27, 2023** – PSQ Holdings, Inc. ("PublicSq."), the nation's largest values-aligned marketplace, and Colombier Acquisition Corp. (NYSE: CLBR) ("Colombier"), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, today announced that they have entered into a definitive business combination agreement. After the anticipated closing in the third quarter of 2023, the combined company will retain the PSQ Holdings, Inc. name and expects to trade on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol PSQH. Colombier shares will continue to trade on the NYSE under the CLBR symbol until the closing of the transaction.

In less than eight months since its nationwide launch, PublicSq. has already become the largest values-aligned marketplace of pro-America businesses and consumers. The company has more than 450,000 active members, more than 40,000 businesses on its platform, and is focused on servicing an estimated total addressable market of more than 100 million Americans increasingly ignored by existing networks and marketplaces.<sup>1</sup>

Michael Seifert, the Founder and CEO of PublicSq., said: "For too long, progressive corporations have prioritized highly politicized ideas over the interests and values of the American people. Because of this, we, as patriotic Americans, are hungering for a future where the power is back in the hands of 'We the People' and a parallel economy is created. With the PublicSq. platform, we are grateful to provide a solution that helps every day, freedom-loving Americans spend their hard-earned money with businesses that prioritize the values that have made this nation so special in the first place. We're just getting started, and we're proud to partner with the Colombier team."

Omeed Malik, the CEO and Chairman of Colombier, stated: "It has become increasingly obvious that there is a disconnect in America between the priorities of large multinational corporations that dominate our consumer experience and the hard-working families and individuals who yearn to find proudly patriotic businesses whose values align with theirs. PublicSq. has recognized and acted on this unmet need in a credible and efficient way – and with the tremendous growth of its digital platform, it is clear that Michael and his team are just getting started. We are thrilled to be supporting them on this journey."

Recipients should carefully consider such factors and the other risks and uncertainties described and to be described in the "Risk Factors" section of Colombier's initial public offering prospectus filed with the SEC on June 9, 2021, Colombier's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 22, 2022 and subsequent periodic reports filed by Colombier with the SEC, the Registration Statement to be filed by Colombier in connection with the Proposed Transaction and other documents filed or to be filed by Colombier 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. Recipients are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and neither PublicSq. nor Colombier assume any obligation to, nor intend to, update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law. Neither PublicSq. nor Colombier gives any assurance that either PublicSq. or Colombier, or the combined company, will achieve its expectations.
