Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On November 15, 2021, 890 5th Avenue Partners, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“890”), issued a press release announcing, among other things, the following (i) the effectiveness as of November 10, 2021, of its registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-258343) (as amended, the “Registration Statement”) and related proxy statement and prospectus in connection with its previously announced business combination (“Business Combination”) with BuzzFeed, Inc. (“BuzzFeed”), (ii) December 2, 2021 as the date of the special meeting of 890’s stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to be held to consider and approve the Business Combination and related matters and (iii) the commencement of mailing the definitive proxy statement (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”) and related materials on November 11, 2021.

A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing (including Exhibit 99.1) is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 and shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise be subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act.

Additional Information

In connection with the Business Combination, the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which includes the related proxy statement and prospectus of 890 with respect to the Special Meeting. 890’s stockholders and other interested persons are advised to read the Registration Statement and the related proxy statement/prospectus and any documents filed in connection therewith, as these materials will contain important information about BuzzFeed, 890 and the Business Combination. The Definitive Proxy Statement and related materials are being mailed to 890’s stockholders who were holders of record as of October 8, 2021. Stockholders will also be able to obtain copies of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 and the proxy statement/prospectus, without charge, at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the documents filed by 890 may be obtained free of charge from 890 at https://www.890fifthavenue.com/#investor-relations.

Participants in the Solicitation

890, BuzzFeed and their respective directors, executive officers, other members of management and employees, under SEC rules, may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies of 890’s stockholders in connection with the Business Combination. To the extent that such persons’ holdings of 890’s securities have changed since the amounts disclosed in 890’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, such changes have been or will be reflected on Statements of Change in Ownership on Form 4 filed with the SEC. Investors and security holders may obtain more detailed information regarding the names and interests in the Business Combination of 890’s directors and officers in 890’s filings with the SEC, including the Registration Statement, and such information and names of BuzzFeed’s directors and executive officers will also be in the Registration Statement, which includes the proxy statement of 890 for the Business Combination.

Disclaimer; Non-Solicitation

This communication is for informational purposes only and is neither an offer to purchase, nor a solicitation of an offer to sell, subscribe for or buy, any securities or the solicitation of any vote in any jurisdiction pursuant to the Business Combination or otherwise, nor shall there be any sale, issuance or transfer or securities in any jurisdiction in contravention of applicable law. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act.

Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K may be considered forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or 890’s or BuzzFeed’s future financial or operating performance. For example, statements about the expected timing of the completion of the Business Combination, the benefits of the Business Combination, the competitive environment, and the expected future performance (including future revenue, pro forma enterprise value, and cash balance) and market opportunities of BuzzFeed are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “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. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties.

These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by 890 and its management, and BuzzFeed and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain. 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 the agreement and plan of merger, dated June 24, 2021, by and among 890, Merger Sub, Merger Sub II and BuzzFeed, as amended; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against 890, BuzzFeed, the combined company or others following the announcement of the Business Combination; (3) the inability to complete the Business Combination due to the failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of 890 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 at or following the consummation of the Business Combination; (6) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of BuzzFeed 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; continued market acceptance of, and traffic engagement with, BuzzFeed’s content; expectations, beliefs and objectives for future operations; BuzzFeed’s ability to further attract, retain, and increase its traffic; BuzzFeed’s ability to expand existing business lines, develop new revenue opportunities, and bring them to market in a timely manner; BuzzFeed’s expectations concerning relationships with strategic partners and other third parties; BuzzFeed’s ability to maintain, protect and enhance its intellectual property; future acquisitions or investments in complementary companies, content or technologies; BuzzFeed’s ability to attract and retain qualified employees; the proceeds of the Business Combination and BuzzFeed’s expected cash runway; demand for products and services; technological developments and other potential effects of the Business Combination on BuzzFeed; (8) costs related to the Business Combination; (9) changes in applicable laws or regulations, including revised foreign content and ownership regulations; (10) changes in national and local economic and other conditions and developments in technology, each of which could influence the levels (rate and volume) of BuzzFeed’s subscriptions and advertising, the growth of its businesses and the implementation of its strategic initiatives; government regulation; (11) poor quality broadband infrastructure in certain markets; (12) the possibility that BuzzFeed or the combined company may be adversely affected by other economic, business and/or competitive factors; and (13) other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in 890’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-251650), as amended by the section entitled “Risk Factors” in 890’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2021, and June 30, 2021, each as filed by 890 with the SEC, and additional risks and uncertainties set forth in other filings with the SEC, including the Registration Statement. 

Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K 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 890 nor BuzzFeed undertakes any duty to update these forward-looking statements.
