Amendment No. 1 to the Business Combination Agreement

On April 13, 2022, Alpha Capital Acquisition Company, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“SPAC” or “Alpha Capital”) entered into an amendment to the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of November 16, 2021, by and among Alpha Capital Holdco Company, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“New PubCo”), Alpha Merger Sub I Company, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of New PubCo (“First Merger Sub”), Alpha Merger Sub II Company, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of New PubCo (“Second Merger Sub”), Alpha Merger Sub III Company, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of New PubCo (“Third Merger Sub” and, together with First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub, the “Merger Subs”), Semantix Tecnologia em Sistema de Informação S.A., a sociedade anônima organized under the laws of Brazil (the “Company” or “Semantix”) and SPAC (the “Business Combination Agreement” and such amendment, the “BCA Amendment”). Each capitalized term used and not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to it in the Business Combination Agreement.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, at the Closing, (i) First Merger Sub will merge with and into Alpha Capital, with Alpha Capital surviving as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of New PubCo, (ii) immediately thereafter, Alpha Capital will merge with and into Second Merger Sub with Second Merger Sub surviving as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of New PubCo and (iii) as promptly as practicable thereafter, Third Merger Sub will merge with and into a newly incorporated entity in the Cayman Islands (“Newco”) with Newco surviving as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of New PubCo.

Pursuant to the BCA Amendment, the Business Combination Agreement was revised to correct certain scrivener’s errors contained in the Business Combination Agreement, the form of Shareholders Agreement attached thereto and the form of A&R Registration Rights Agreement attached thereto. In addition, the BCA Amendment also revised the list of Company shareholders that would be eligible to receive the Semantix Earn-Out Shares upon the achievement of certain price targets described in the Business Combination Agreement.

The foregoing description of the BCA Amendment, including the changes to the form of Shareholders Agreement and the form of A&R Registration Rights Agreement, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the BCA Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements,” including with respect to the proposed Business Combination. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target” or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. No assurance can be given that the Business Combination discussed above will be completed on the terms described, or at all. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this press release, and on the current expectations of Semantix’s and Alpha Capital’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 on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Semantix and Alpha Capital. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those factors discussed in Alpha Capital’s final prospectus that forms a part of Alpha Capital’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Reg. No. 333-252596), filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) on February 18, 2021 (the “Prospectus”) under the heading “Risk Factors,” and other documents of Alpha Capital filed, or to be filed, with the SEC. 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. There may be additional risks that neither Alpha Capital nor Semantix presently know or that Alpha Capital nor Semantix currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Alpha Capital’s and Semantix’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release. Alpha Capital and Semantix anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause Alpha Capital’s or Semantix’s assessments to change. However, while Alpha Capital and Semantix may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Alpha Capital and Semantix specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Alpha Capital’s or Semantix’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.

Additional Information About the Proposed Business Combination and Where to Find It

The proposed business combination will be submitted to the shareholders of Alpha Capital for their consideration. Alpha Capital has filed a registration statement on Form F-4 (the “Registration Statement”) with the SEC which includes a preliminary proxy statement to be distributed to Alpha Capital’s shareholders in connection with Alpha Capital’s solicitation for proxies for the vote by Alpha Capital’s shareholders in connection with the proposed transaction and other matters as described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer of the securities to be issued in connection with the completion of the proposed business combination. After the Registration Statement has been declared effective, Alpha Capital will mail a definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents to its shareholders as of the record date established for voting on the proposed business combination. Alpha Capital’s shareholders and other interested persons are advised to read the preliminary proxy statement / prospectus and any amendments thereto and, once available, the definitive proxy statement / prospectus, in connection with Alpha Capital’s solicitation of proxies for its special meeting of shareholders to be held to approve, among other things, the proposed transaction, because these documents will contain important information about Alpha Capital, Semantix and the proposed business combination.
