When RMG discusses its strategies or plans, including as they relate to the Busin ess Combination, it is making projections, forecasts and forward - looking statements. Such statements are based on the beliefs of, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to, RMG’s management. These forward - looking statements involve significant risk and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materi ally from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside RMG’s and Romeo’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) RMG’s ability to complete th e Business Combination or, if RMG does not complete the Business Combination, any other initial business combination; (2) satisfaction or waiver (if applicable) of the conditions to the Business Combination, including with respect to the approval of the stockholders of RMG; (3) the ability to maintain the listing of the combined company’s securities on the New York Stock Exchange; (4) the inability to complete the PIPE investments; (5) the risk that the Business C ombination disrupts current plans and operations of RMG or Romeo as a result of the announcement and consummation of the transaction described herein; (6) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Comb ination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its management a nd key employees; (7) costs related to the Business Combination; (8) changes in applicable laws or regulations and delays in obtaining, adverse conditions contained in, or the inability to obtain necessary regulatory approva ls required to complete the Business Combination; (9) the possibility that Romeo and RMG may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors, including the COVID - 19 pandemic; (10) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against RMG, Romeo or any of their respective directors or officers following the announcement of the Business Combination; (11) the failure to realize anticipated pro forma results and underlying assumptions, including with respect to estimated stockholder redemptions and purchase price and other adjustments; and (12) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the preliminary prox y statement of RMG related to the Business Combination, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and other documents filed or to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) by RMG.

3 Important Notice (Cont’d) Use of Projections This presentation contains financial forecasts. Neither RMG’s nor Romeo’s independent auditors have studied, reviewed, compi led or performed any procedures with respect to the projections for the purpose of their inclusion in this presentation, and accordingly, neither of them expressed an opinion or provided any other form of assurance with respect ther eto for the purpose of this presentation. These projections are for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results. In this presentation, certain of the above - mentioned proj ected information has been provided for purposes of providing comparisons with historical data. The assumptions and estimates underlying the prospective financial information are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide va riety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the prospective financial information. Projections are inherently uncer tai n due to a number of factors outside of RMG’s or Romeo’s control. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the prospective results are indicative of future performance of RMG, Romeo or the combined company after the Business Co mbi nation or that actual results will not differ materially from those presented in the prospective financial information. Inclusion of the prospective financial information in this presentation should not be regarded as a r epr esentation by any person that the results contained in the prospective financial information will be achieved, Industry and Market Data In this presentation, we rely on and refer to information and statistics regarding market participants in the sectors in whic h R omeo competes and other industry data. We obtained this information and statistics from third - party sources, including reports by market research firms and company filings. Being in receipt of the presentation you agree you may be restricted from dealing in (or encouraging others to deal in) price sensitive securities. Non - GAAP Financial Measures This presentation includes certain non - GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA. EBITDA is not prepared in accordance with acc ounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and may be different from non - GAAP financial measures used by other companies. RMG and Romeo believe that the use of this non - GAAP financial measure prov ides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing Romeo’s financial measures with other similar companies. This non - GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, financial measures determin ed in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of this non - GAAP financial measure is that it excludes significant expenses and income that are require d by GAAP to be recorded in Romeo’s financial statements. In addition, this non - GAAP financial measure is subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expense and inc ome are excluded or included in determining this non - GAAP financial measure. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents a non - GAAP financial measure in connection with GAAP results. You should review Romeo’s audited financial statements, which will be included in the Registration Statement (as defined below). Additional Information In connection with the Business Combination, RMG intends to file a registration statement on Form S - 4 (the “Registration Stateme nt”), which will include a preliminary proxy statement to be distributed to holders of RMG’s common stock in connection with RMG’s solicitation of proxies for the vote by RMG’s stockholders with respect to the Business Combin ati on and other matters as described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer of the securities to be issued to Romeo’s stockholders in connection with the completion of the Business Combinatio n. After the Registration Statement has been filed and declared effective, RMG will mail a definitive proxy statement, when available, to its stockholders. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, ANY AMENDMENTS THERETO AND ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION AB OUT RMG, ROMEO AND THE BUSINESS COMBINATION.
