2 Additional Information and Where to Find It

EdtechX intends to hold presentations for certain of its stockholders, as well as other persons who might be interested in purchasing EdtechX’s securities, in connection with the proposed transactions (the “Merger”) with zSpace, Inc. (“zSpace”). This Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibits hereto, may be distributed to participants at such presentations.

EdtechX intends to file a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC (“Registration Statement”), which will include a document that serves as a prospectus and proxy statement of EdtechX, referred to as a proxy statement/prospectus, and certain related documents, to be used at the meeting of EdtechX’s stockholders to approve the proposed business combination and related matters. Investors and securityholders of EdtechX are urged to read the Registration Statement, the proxy statement/prospectus, and any amendments thereto, 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 EdtechX, zSpace, and the proposed transaction. The definitive proxy statement/prospectus will be mailed to EdtechX’s stockholders as of a record date to be established for voting on the proposed business combination and related matters. Investors and securityholders 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 EdtechX, once such documents are filed, through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov.

The documents filed by EdtechX with the SEC also may be obtained free of charge upon written request to EdtechX at 22 Soho Square, London, W1D 4NS, United Kingdom.

Participants in Solicitation

EdtechX, zSpace, and certain of their respective directors and executive officers, under SEC rules, may be deemed to be participants in the eventual solicitation of proxies from EdtechX’s stockholders in connection with the proposed transaction. A list of the names of such directors and executive officers and information regarding their interests in the proposed business combination will be contained in the proxy statement/prospectus when available. You may obtain free copies of these documents as described in the preceding paragraphs.

No Offer or Solicitation

This Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits hereto shall not constitute a solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the proposed transaction. This Current Report on Form 8-K also shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of any securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such other jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements included in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits hereto are not historical facts but are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of other financial and performance metrics and projections of market opportunity.

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 EdtechX’s and zSpace’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 EdtechX and zSpace. Some important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statements could include changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions. Further, these forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including: the conditions to the completion of the Merger, including the required approval by EdtechX’s stockholders, may not be satisfied on the terms expected or on the anticipated schedule; the parties’ ability to meet expectations regarding the timing and completion of the Merger; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization by and among EdtechX, zSpace and the other parties thereto (“Merger Agreement”); the approval, as needed, by EdtechX’s stockholders of an amendment to EdtechX’s organizational documents to extend the date by which EdtechX must complete its initial business combination in order to have adequate time to close the proposed transaction; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against EdtechX related to the Merger or the Merger Agreement; the amount of the costs, fees, expenses and other charges related to the Merger; the risk that any required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed business combination; the ability to maintain the listing of EdtechX’s securities on a national securities exchange; the price of EdtechX’s securities may be volatile due to a variety of factors, including changes in the highly competitive industries in which EdtechX plans to operate or zSpace operates, variations in operating performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting EdtechX’s or zSpace’s business and changes in the combined capital structure; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed business combination; the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the proposed transaction, and identify and realize additional opportunities; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to zSpace; zSpace’s ability to successfully expand its service offerings; risks that the proposed transaction disrupts current plans and operations of zSpace and potential difficulties in zSpace employee retention as a result of the proposed transaction; competition; the uncertain effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; and those factors discussed in the Registration Statement, proxy statement/prospectus, and other documents filed, or to be filed, by EdtechX with SEC. If any of these risks materialize or EdtechX’s or zSpace’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither EdtechX nor zSpace presently know or that EdtechX and zSpace currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

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 reflect EdtechX’s and zSpace’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views only as of the date they are made. EdtechX and zSpace anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause EdtechX’s and zSpace’s assessments to change. EdtechX and zSpace may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, EdtechX and zSpace 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. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing EdtechX’s and zSpace’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Neither EdtechX nor zSpace gives any assurance that either EdtechX or zSpace or the combined company will achieve its expectations. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.

This Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibits hereto, is not intended to be all-inclusive or to contain all the information that a person may desire in considering an investment in EdtehcX or zSpace and is not intended to form the basis of an investment decision in EdtechX or zSpace. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning EdtechX and zSpace, the proposed business combination or other matters and attributable to EdtechX, zSpace, or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above.
