SUBJECT: Sarcos Robotics to Merge with Rotor Acquisition Corp.

Good [morning / afternoon],

I am reaching out to make sure you saw the news that Sarcos Robotics has announced it will become a publicly traded company through a merger with Rotor Acquisition Corp. (“Rotor”). The transaction represents an enterprise value of $1.3 billion for Sarcos, plus a potential earnout of an additional $281 million based on the future share trading price of the combined company. The transaction is further supported by a $220 million PIPE at $10.00 per share from key investors, including BlackRock, Millennium Management LLC, Palantir Technologies Inc., Caterpillar Venture Capital Inc., Schlumberger, Michael F. Price, JAWS Estates Capital, LLC, Sarcos Chairman and CEO, Ben Wolff, and founders of Rotor Acquisition Corp.

Upon completion of the transaction, Sarcos expects to have up to $496 million in cash before expenses and assuming no redemptions by Rotor shareholders. Sarcos plans to use this capital to fund growth initiatives and enhance shareholder value, including completing the commercialization and launch of our Guardian XO and XT products, ramping up production and inventory to drive scale and growth, as well as potentially increasing our capabilities through bolt-on acquisitions and developing Sarcos’ AI platform to enhance the value proposition of our core products.

A copy of the news release we issued, and the investor presentation can be found on our website www.sarcos.com/ir.

I am happy to set up a call with Ben Wolff, Sarcos Chairman and CEO to talk further about this news later today. If of interest, please let me know your availability and we’ll arrange accordingly.

Best Regards,

Kristi Martindale

Chief Product & Marketing Officer, Sarcos
