Forward Looking Statements Certain statements in this Presentation may be considered forward - looking statements. Forward - looking statements generally relat e to future events or SPAC’s or the Company’s future financial or operating performance. For example, statements regarding ant icipated growth in the industry in which the Company operates and anticipated growth in demand for the Company’s products, projections of the Company’s future financial results, including future Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, possible growth opportunities for the Company and other metrics are forward - looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward - looking statements by terminology such as “pro forma,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “project,” “strive,” “budget,” “fo rec ast,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue,” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Such forward - looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward - looking statements. These forward - looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by SPAC and its management, and the Company and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain and are inherently subject to risks variability and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of negotiations and any subsequent definitive agreements with respect to the Business Combination; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against SPAC, the combined company or others following the announcement of the Business Combination and any definitive agreements with respect thereto; (3) the inability to complete the Business Combination due to the failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of SPAC, to obtain financing to complete the Business Combination or to satisfy other conditions to closing; (4) changes to the proposed structure of the Business Combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations or as a condition to obtaining regulatory approval of the Business Combination; (5) the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards following the consummation of the Business Combination; (6) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of the Company as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Business Combination; (7) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain key relationships and retain its management and key employees; (8) costs related to the Business Combination; (9) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (10) the possibility that the Company or the combined c ompany may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (11) the Company’s estimates of exp enses and profitability; and (12) other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward - Looking Statements” in SPAC’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated July 30, 2020 or in other documents filed by SPAC with the SEC and the “Risk Fa ctors” section included in the Appendix to this Presentation. There may be additional risks that neither SPAC nor the Company presently know or that SPAC and the Company currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward - looking statements. Nothing in this Presentation should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward - looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward - looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward - looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Neither SPAC nor the Company undertakes any duty to update or revise these forward - looking statements or to inform the recipient of any matters of which any of them becomes aware of which may affect any matter referred to in this Presentation. The Company and SPAC disclaim any and all liability for any loss or damage (whether foreseeable or not) suffered or incurred by any person or entity as a result of anything contained or omitted from this Presentation and such liability is expressly disclaimed. The recipient agrees that it shall not seek to sue or otherwise hold the Company, SPAC or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, advisors or representatives liable in any respect for the provision of this Presentation, the information contained in this Presentation, or the omission of any information from this Presentation. Only those particular representations and warranties of the Company or SPAC made in a definitive written agreement regarding the transaction (which will not contain any representation or warranty relating to this Presentation) when and if executed, and subject to such limitations and restrictions as specified therein, shall have any legal effect. Non - GAAP Financial Measures This Presentation includes projections of certain financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted account ing principles (“GAAP”) including, but not limited to, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and cost of revenue as a % of r evenue, and certain ratios and other metrics derived therefrom. These non - GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that a re significant in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be consid ered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. You should be aware that the Company ’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly - titled measures used by other companies. The Company believes these non - GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regardi ng certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations . The Company believes that the use of these non - GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing results of operations and trends in and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non - GAAP financial measures to investors . These non - GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non - GAAP financial measures . Due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of some of the information excluded from these projected measures, together with some of the excluded information not being ascertainable or accessible, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable effort. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable GAAP measures is included and no reconciliation of the forward - looking non - GAAP financial measures is included. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results. Dis c laimer 3

Risk Factors (Cont’d) Risks Relating to Legal and Regulatory Matters • An increase in government regulation of the industries and markets in which we operate, including with respect to the internet and e - commerce, could have a negative impact on our business. • Our operations may expose us to greater than anticipated income and transaction tax liabilities that could harm our financial condition and results of operations. • We collect, store, process, transmit and use personally identifiable information and other data, which subjects us to governmental regulation and other legal obligations in many jurisdictions related to privacy, information security and data protection.

Risks Related to CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II’s Securities • If the Business Combination’s benefits do not meet the expectations of investors, shareholders or financial analysts, the mar ket price of CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II’s securities may decline after the closing of the Business Combination. • An active trading market for CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II’s Class A ordinary shares may not be available on a consisten t basis to provide shareholders with adequate liquidity. The share price may be extremely volatile, and shareholders could lose a significant part of their investment. • CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II’s Class A ordinary shares may fail to meet the continued listing standards of The New York St ock Exchange (“NYSE”), and additional shares may not be approved for listing on NYSE. • Because the Company has no current plans to pay cash dividends for the foreseeable future, you may not receive any return on investment unless you sell your shares for a price greater than that which you paid for them. • If, following the business combination, securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports a bout the Company, its business, or its market, or if they change their recommendations regarding the Company’s securities adversely, the price and trading volume of the Company’s securities could decline. Risks Related to CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II and the Business Combination • The combined company will incur significant increased expenses and administrative burdens as a public company, which could have an adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations. • CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II Sponsor LLC (“Sponsor”) and each of CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II’s officers and dire cto rs agreed to vote in favor of the Business Combination, regardless of how CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II’s other shareholders vote. • Since the Sponsor and CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II’s directors and executive officers have interests that are different , o r in addition to (and which may conflict with), the interests of CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II’s other shareholders, a conflict of interest may exist in determining whether the Business Combination with the Company is appropriate as CC Neuberger P rincipal Holdings II’s initial business combination. Such interests include that the Sponsor and CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II’s directors and executive officers, may lose their entire investment if a business combination is not completed, and that the Sponsor will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete the proposed Business Combination, even if it is with a less favorable target company or on less favorable terms to shareholders, rather than liquidate CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II. • The ability to successfully effect the Business Combination and to be successful thereafter will be totally dependent upon the efforts of key personnel, some of whom may be from CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II and the Company, and some of whom may join the Post - Combination Company following the initial Business Combination. The loss of key personnel or the hiring of ineffective personnel after the Business Combination could negatively impact the operations and profitability of the post - combination business. • CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II and the Company expect to incur significant transaction costs in connection with the Business Combination. Whether or not the Business Combination is completed, the incurrence of these costs will reduce the amount of cash available to be used for corporate purposes by CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II if the Business Combinations not completed. • The ability of CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II’s shareholders to exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of outstanding CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II Class A ordinary shares could increase the probability that the Business Combination would be unsuccessful. • The Company’s operating and financial forecasts, which were presented to the CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II Board of Dire ctors, may not prove accurate. • The Business Combination is subject to conditions, including certain conditions that may not be satisfied on a timely basis, if at all. • Past performance by CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II, including its management team and affiliates, may not be indicative of future performance of an investment in CC Neuberger Principal Holdings II or the Post - Combination Company. 94
