NaturalShrimp (SHMP) Risk Analysis

The stock markets, including Nasdaq on which the shares of the Combined Company's common stock to be issued in the Business Combination are expected to be traded, have from time-to-time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. Even if an active, liquid, and orderly trading market develops and is sustained for the Combined Company's common stock following the Business Combination, the market prices of shares of the Combined Company's common stock may be volatile and could decline significantly. In addition, the trading volumes in shares of the Combined Company's common stock may fluctuate and cause significant price variations to occur. If the market prices of the Combined Company's common stock decline significantly, holders of the Combined Company's common stock, including our stockholders who receive shares of the Combined Company's common stock in the Business Combination, may be unable to resell their shares of the Combined Company's common stock at or above the market price of the shares of the Combined Company's common stock as of the date immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination. There can be no assurance that the market prices of shares of the Combined Company's common stock will not fluctuate widely or decline significantly in the future in response to a number of factors, including, among others, the following: - the realization of any of the risk factors discussed in this report; - actual or anticipated differences in our estimates, or in the estimates of analysts, for the Combined Company's revenues, results of operations, cash flows, level of indebtedness, liquidity, or financial condition; - actual or anticipated variations in the Combined Company's quarterly operating results; - announcements by the Combined Company or its competitors of significant business developments; - the Combined Company's ability to obtain adequate working capital financing; - loss of any strategic relationships; - actions by the Combined Company's stockholders (including transactions in shares of the Combined Company's common stock); - changes in applicable laws or regulations, court rulings, enforcement, and legal actions; - sale of shares of the Combined Company's common stock or other securities in the future; - changes in market valuations of similar companies and general market conditions in our industry; - publication (or lack of publication) of research reports about the Combined Company; - the trading volume of shares of the Combined Company's common stock; - additions or departures of key management personnel; - speculation in the press or investment community; - continuing increases in market interest rates, which may increase the Combined Company's cost of capital; - changes in our industry; - actual, potential, or perceived control, accounting, or reporting problems;- changes in accounting principles, policies, and guidelines; - other events or factors, including but not limited to those resulting from infectious diseases, health epidemics and pandemics (including but not limited to the recent COVID-19 pandemic) natural disasters, war, acts of terrorism, or responses to these events; - our ability to execute the Combined Company's business plan; and - general economic and market conditions. In addition, the securities markets have periodically experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of the Combined Company's common stock. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against that company. If the Combined Company were involved in any similar litigation it could incur substantial costs and its management's attention and resources could be diverted from running the business and implementing its business plan.

The Combined Company may continue to require capital investment to support its business and may issue additional shares of its common stock or other equity or convertible debt securities of equal or senior rank in the future without approval of its stockholders in certain of circumstances. The Combined Company's issuance of additional shares of its common stock or other equity or convertible debt securities would have the following effects: (i) the Combined Company's existing stockholders' proportionate ownership interest in the Combined Company would decrease; (ii) the amount of cash available per share, including for payment of dividends in the future, may decrease; (iii) the relative voting power of each previously outstanding shares of the Combined Company's common stock may be diminished; and (iv) the market price of the Combined Company's common stock may decline.

Upon completion of the Business Combination, the Company's stockholders will no longer be stockholders of the Company but will be stockholders of the Combined Company. There will be material differences between the current rights of the Company's stockholders and the rights that current Company stockholders will have as a holder of shares of the Combined Company's common stock, some of which may adversely affect our current stockholders.

The trading market for the Combined Company's common stock will depend, in part, on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about the Combined Company or its business. The Combined Company may be unable to sustain coverage by well-regarded securities and industry analysts. If either no or only a limited number of securities or industry analysts maintain coverage of the Combined Company, or if these securities or industry analysts are not widely respected within the general investment community, the demand for the Combined Company's common stock could decrease, which might cause its share price and trading volume to decline significantly. In the event that the Combined Company obtains securities or industry analyst coverage, or if one or more of the analysts who cover the Combined Company downgrade their assessment of the Combined Company or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about the Combined Company's business, the market price and liquidity for the Combined Company's common stock could be negatively impacted.

Pursuant to lock-up agreements executed concurrently with the Merger Agreement, certain of the Combined Company's stockholders will be restricted, subject to certain exceptions, from selling any of the Combined Company's common stock that they receive in or hold at the effective time of the Business Combination, which restrictions will expire and therefore additional Combined Company's common stock will be eligible for resale, six months after the effective time of the Business Combination. Subject to the lock-up agreements, the Company stockholders that are a party thereto (which are the Company's three executive officers and directors) may sell the Combined Company's common stock pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), if available. In these cases, the resales must meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule, including, because Yotta is currently a shell company, waiting until one year after the Combined Company's filing with the SEC of Form 10-type information reflecting the Business Combination. Upon expiration of the lock-up periods provided for in such agreements, and upon effectiveness of the registration statement that the Combined Company is obligated to file to register the resale of such shares with the SEC or upon satisfaction of the requirements of Rule 144, certain former Yotta stockholders and certain other significant stockholders of the Combined Company may sell large amounts of the Combined Company's common stock in the open market or in privately-negotiated transactions, which could have the effect of increasing the volatility in the Combined Company's share price or putting significant downward pressure on the price of the Combined Company's common stock.

If the Combined Company fails to meet the continued listing requirements and Nasdaq delists its securities, it could face significant material adverse consequences, including: - a limited availability of market quotations for its securities; - a limited amount of news and analyst coverage for the Combined Company; and - a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

We expect that the Combined Company will retain most, if not all, of its available funds and any future earnings after the Business Combination to fund its operations and the development and growth of its business. As a result, we do not expect that the Combined Company will pay any cash dividends on the Combined Company's common stock in the foreseeable future. Following completion of the Business Combination, the Combined Company's board of directors will have complete discretion as to whether to distribute dividends. Even if the board of directors decides to declare and pay dividends, the timing, amount, and form of such dividends, if any, will depend on the future results of operations and cash flow, capital requirements, and surplus, the amount of distributions, if any, received by the Combined Company from its subsidiaries, the Combined Company's financial condition, contractual restrictions, and other factors deemed relevant by the board of directors. There is no guarantee that the shares of the Combined Company's common stock will appreciate in value after the Business Combination or that the trading price of the shares will not decline. Holders of the Combined Company's common stock should not rely on an investment in shares of the Combined Company's common stock as a source for any future dividend income.

In reaching its determination that the pending Business Combination with Yotta, as discussed above under "Item 1 – Business," the Merger Agreement and the related agreements, and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the related agreements, were advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, and in adopting and approving such matters, our board of directors considered, among other things: (i) that the Combined Company's common stock would be listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"); (ii) the implied enterprise value of the Business Combination of approximately $175 million for the Company, providing its securityholders with the opportunity to go forward with ownership in a company with a larger market capitalization; and (iii) the board's expectation that the Business Combination would be a more time- and cost-effective means to access capital, repay a portion of our existing indebtedness, and reduce leverage than other options that the Company had considered. The success of the Business Combination, however, will depend, in part, on a number of factors, including the challenges and risks currently faced by the Company as discussed in this report, some of which our outside of our control, and the reaction of current and potential investors to the Business Combination. As a result, the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected.

Uncertainty about the effect of the Business Combination on employees, customers, suppliers, and vendors may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. These uncertainties may impair our ability to attract, retain, and motivate key personnel pending the consummation of the Business Combination. Additionally, these uncertainties could cause customers, suppliers, vendors, and others who deal with us to seek to change existing business relationships with us or fail to extend an existing relationship. In addition, competitors may target our key personnel or other employees by highlighting potential uncertainties relating to or that may result from the Business Combination. Further, the pursuit of the Business Combination may place a burden on Company management and resources. Any significant diversion of management attention away from ongoing business concerns and any difficulties encountered in the transition process could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations both before and after consummation of the Business Combination.

We have incurred substantial expenses in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination. The completion of the Business Combination depends on the satisfaction of specified conditions, including the receipt of the requisite approval of Yotta's stockholders. There is no guarantee that these conditions will be met. If the Business Combination is not completed, these expenses could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition because we would not have realized the expected benefits for which these expenses were incurred.
