Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes “forward-looking statements” with respect to Vine Hill, CoinShares and/or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements include all statements other than statements of historical fact, including, without limitation, ~~estimates and forecasts of financial position, business strategy, plans, targets and objectives of~~ the ~~management of CoinShares for future operations (including~~timing ~~development plans and objectives), the anticipated benefits~~ of ~~the Business Combination~~, ~~the anticipated capitalization~~ and ~~enterprise value of Holdco and CoinShares following~~ the ~~Business~~satisfaction ~~Combination,~~of ~~expectations~~closing ~~related~~conditions to, ~~the~~completion ~~terms and timing~~ of the ~~Business Combination, regulatory developments in CoinShares’ and/or Holdco’s industries, and funding of and investments into CoinShares and/or Holdco~~Transaction. The expectations, estimates and projections of the businesses of CoinShares and Vine Hill may differ from their actual results and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “according to estimates”, “anticipates”, “assumes”, “believes”, “could”, “estimates”, “expects”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “is of the opinion”, “may”, “plans”, “potential”, “predicts”, “projects”, “targets”, “to the knowledge of”, “should”, “will”, “would”, or the negatives of these terms, variations of them or similar terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words.

Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may adversely affect CoinShares’ and ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings’s ability to implement and achieve their plans and objectives set out in such forward-looking statements and which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding CoinShares’ and ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings’s present and future ~~policies~~ policies and plans and the environment in which CoinShares and ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings will operate in the future. Many actual events or circumstances are outside of the control of CoinShares, ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings or Vine Hill. Furthermore, certain forward-looking statements are based on assumptions or future events which may not prove to be accurate, and no reliance whatsoever should be placed on any forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the Transactions not being completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Vine Hill’s and/or CoinShares’ securities; (2) the Transactions not being completed by Vine Hill’s business combination deadline; (3) failure by the parties to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Transactions, including the approval of Vine Hill’s and CoinShares’ shareholders and obtaining the requisite Acts of the Royal Court of Jersey; (4) failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Transactions, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of CoinShares and ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings to grow and manage growth profitably, build or maintain relationships with customers and retain management and key employees, capital expenditures, requirements for additional capital and timing of future cash flow provided by operating activities and the demand for digital assets, including cryptocurrencies and blockchain-related alternative investments, including those offered by, or underlying those offered by, CoinShares and ~~Holdco;~~Odysseus Holdings; (5) the level of redemptions by Vine Hill’s public shareholders which will reduce the amount of funds available for CoinShares and Odysseus ~~Holdco~~Holdings to execute on their business strategies and may make it difficult to obtain or maintain the listing or trading of ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings ordinary shares on a major securities exchange; (6) failure of ~~Holdco~~ Odysseus Holdings to obtain or maintain the listing of its securities on any securities exchange after the closing; (7) costs related to the Transactions and as a result of ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings becoming a public company that may be higher than currently anticipated; (8) changes in business, market, financial, political and regulatory conditions; (9) volatility and rapid fluctuations in the market prices of digital assets, including cryptocurrencies and blockchain-related alternative investments, including those offered by, or underlying those offered by, CoinShares and/or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings; (10) failure of CoinShares’ and/or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings’s digital asset investment products to track their respective target benchmarks; (11) regulatory or other developments that negatively impact demand for the products and services provided by CoinShares and/or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings; (12) the outcome of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the inability to consummate the Business Combination; (13) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Vine Hill, CoinShares, ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings and/or any of their respective ~~affiliates~~ affiliates or others; (14) changes to the proposed structure of the Business Combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations; (15) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of Vine Hill and/or ~~CoinShares~~ CoinShares as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Business Combination; (16) treatment of digital assets, including cryptocurrencies and blockchain-related alternative investments, including those offered by, or underlying those offered by, CoinShares and/or ~~Holdco,~~Odysseus Holdings, for U.S. and foreign tax purposes; (17) challenges in implementing CoinShares and/or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings’s business plan due to operational challenges, significant competition and regulation; (18) being considered to be a “shell company” or “former shell company” by the securities exchange on which ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings ordinary shares will be listed or by the SEC, which may impact the ability to list ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings ordinary shares and restrict reliance on certain rules or forms in connection with the offering, sale or resale of ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings’s securities; (19) trading price and volume of ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings ordinary shares may be volatile following the Transactions and an active trading market may not develop; (20) ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings’ shareholders may experience dilution in the future due to the exercise of a significant number of existing warrants and any future issuances of equity securities of ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings; (21) investors may experience immediate and material dilution upon the closing as a result of the Vine Hill Class B ordinary shares held by Vine Hill Capital Sponsor I LLC, since the value of the ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings ordinary shares received by Vine Hill Capital Sponsor I LLC in exchange for such Vine Hill Class B ordinary shares is likely to be substantially higher than the nominal price paid for them, even if the trading price of ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings ordinary shares at such time is substantially less than the price per share paid by investors; (22) conflicts of interest that may arise from investment and transaction opportunities involving ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings, CoinShares, their respective affiliates and other investors and clients; (23) digital asset trading venues may experience greater fraud, security failures or regulatory or operational problems than trading venues for more established asset classes; (24) risks relating to the custody of CoinShares’ and ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings’s digital assets, including the loss or destruction of private keys required to access its digital assets and cyberattacks or other data loss relating to its digital assets, which could cause CoinShares or ~~Holdco,~~Odysseus Holdings, as applicable, to lose some or all of its digital assets; (25) a security breach, cyber-attack or other event where unauthorized parties obtain access to CoinShares’ or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings’s digital assets, as a result of which CoinShares or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus ~~may~~Holdings may lose some or all of their digital assets temporarily or permanently and their financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected; (26) the emergence or growth of other digital assets, including those with significant private or public sector backing, including by governments, consortiums or financial institutions, could have a negative impact on the value of digital assets and adversely affect CoinShares’ and/or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings’s business; (27) potential regulatory changes reclassifying certain digital assets as securities could lead to the CoinShares’ and/or ~~Holdco~~ Odysseus Holdings’s classification as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and could adversely affect the market price of CoinShares’ and/or ~~Holdco’s~~Odysseus Holdings’ digital assets and the market price of CoinShares or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings listed securities; and (28) other risks and uncertainties included in (x) the “Risk Factors” sections of the Vine Hill Annual Report on Form 10-K and (y) other documents filed or to be filed with or furnished or to be furnished to the SEC by ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings, CoinShares and/or Vine Hill. The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. You should not place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. None of Vine Hill, CoinShares or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings undertakes or accepts any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in their expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by law. Past performance by Vine Hill’s, CoinShares’ or ~~Holdco’s~~Odysseus Holdings’ management teams and their respective affiliates is not a guarantee of future performance. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on the historical record of the performance of Vine Hill’s, CoinShares’ or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings’s management teams or businesses associated with them as indicative of future performance of an investment or the returns that Vine Hill, CoinShares or ~~Holdco~~Odysseus Holdings will, or are likely to, generate going forward.
