Significantly higher implied valuation of Verde based on EBITDA multiple is by virtue of its superior profit potential (much higher EBITDA %) • Verde’s financial outlook and three sets of current industry trading multiples can potentially support an indicative enterprise value range between $300M and $700M. • Verde’s EV could arguably command a premium if it can successfully become one of the first scalable, fully commercialized, superior solution that we believe it has a reasonable chance to achieve. • Verde’s potentially superior EBITDA profile in the medium to long term arguably suggests a higher valuation potential. • Hence, Verde’s pre-money EV of $365M (pro forma EV of $433M) could arguably represent a fair value or even a discount to what we believe could be its potential indicative valuation range of $400M to $800M if it were to successfully realize its growth and profitability aspirations.

INVESTOR PRESENTATION / OCTOBER 2023 26 APPENDIX 3: TLGY WARRANT STRUCTURE DESIGNED TO HELP MITIGATE REDEMPTION • TLGY’s pooling structure is designed to create an expectation of escalating value for not redeeming common just as expectation for redemption reaches high percentages. • With resized trust cash of $80M1 , expectation for potential upside for not redeeming can start at $1.62 and escalate as expectation for redemption rises further (even beyond $10/share), potentially acting as a counterbalance. • If $40M is unredeemed, for example, non-redeeming investors are expected to do better than redeeming at $10.9 provided that the post-closing price is above $8.3/share (1.31 shares x $8.3 = $10.9). • If only $10M is unredeemed, non-redeeming investors are expected to do better above per share price of $4.8 and have an escalating upside above $4.8. • Provided that the Proposed Transaction is perceived to be fairly priced at $10.9/share, the expectations of meaningful downside protection and higher upside could provide certain counterbalance to redemption pressures.

INVESTOR PRESENTATION / OCTOBER 2023 27 RISK FACTORS RELATED TO VERDE Verde’s business is subject to numerous risks, including but not limited to the following: • Verde is an early-stage company with a history of losses, and its future profitability is uncertain. • To date, Verde has not generated any revenues from product sales. • Verde’s operating results may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of its control. • Verde’s business is not diversified. • Verde may be unable to manage growth effectively. • Verde will need to secure additional funding and may be unable to raise additional capital on favorable terms, if at all. • Changes in tax laws may adversely affect Verde or its investors. • Construction of Verde’s manufacturing facilities may not be completed in the expected timeframe or in a cost-effective manner. Any delays in the construction of Verde’s manufacturing facilities could severely impact its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. • Initially, Verde will rely on a single facility for all of its operations. • Verde may be delayed in or unable to procure necessary capital equipment. • Verde has not produced its products in commercial quantities. • Verde expects to rely on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of its near-term revenue. • Verde may be unable to obtain certifications required by its prospective customers. • Verde’s products may not achieve market success. If Verde’s products do not achieve market success, it may be unable to generate significant revenues, if at all. • Verde faces and will face substantial competition. • Verde produces biopolymer products from raw materials, including renewable resources, whose pricing and availability may be impacted by factors out of its control. Increases or fluctuations in the costs of Verde’s raw materials may affect its cost structure. • Verde’s success will be influenced by the price of petroleum relative to the price of bio-based feedstocks. • The failure of Verde’s raw material suppliers to perform their obligations under supply agreements, or Verde’s inability to replace or renew these agreements when they expire, could increase Verde’s cost for these materials, interrupt production or otherwise adversely affect its results of operations. • Maintenance, expansion and refurbishment of Verde’s facilities, the construction of new facilities and the development and implementation of new manufacturing processes involve significant risks. • Verde may not be successful in finding future strategic partners for continuing development of additional feedstock opportunities or tolling and downstream conversion of Verde’s products. • Verde may rely heavily on future collaborative and supply chain partners. • Compliance with extension environmental, health and safety laws could require material expenditures, changes in Verde’s operations or site remediation. • Verde’s operating plan may require it to source feedstock and supplies internationally, and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and changes to international trade agreements, tariffs, import and excise duties, taxes or other governmental rules and regulations could adversely affect Verde’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. • Verde’s business could suffer form negative publicity and other adverse consequences with recent civil and criminal charges brought against Terren Peizer, Verde’s former Executive Chairman; and Founder and Chairman of Humanitario Capital, LLC. Verde’s largest stockholder, by the Securities Exchange Commission and the United States Department of Justice. • From time to time, Verde may be involved in litigation, regulatory actions or government investigations and inquiries, which could have an adverse impact on Verde’s profitability and consolidated financial position. • If Verde experiences a significant disruption in its information technology systems, including security breaches, or if it fails to implement new systems and software successfully, its business operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. • Verde may not be able to protect adequately its intellectual property assets, which could adversely affect its competitive position and reduce the value of its products, and litigation to protect its intellectual property could be costly. • Third parties may claim that Verde infringes on their proprietary rights and may prevent Verde from commercializing and selling its products. • Verde relies in part on trade secrets to protect its technology, and its failure to obtain or maintain trade secret protection could limit its ability to compete. • Verde’s management has limited experience operating as a public company. • Verde depends on its teams, and Verde’s business would suffer if it fails to retain its key personnel and attract additional highly skilled employees. • If the Proposed Transaction’s benefits do not meet the expectations of investors or securities analysts or for other reasons the market price of TLGY’s securities or, following the Proposed Transaction, the combined company’s securities, may decline. • If, following the Proposed Transaction, securities or industry analysts do not public research or reports about the combined company, or if they issue unfavorable or inaccurate research regarding its business, its share price and trading volume could decline. • Following the Proposed Transaction, the combined company will incur increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and its management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives and corporate governance practices.

INVESTOR PRESENTATION / OCTOBER 2023 28 KEY RISKS RELATED TO THE TRANSACTION AND TLGY TLGY is subject to numerous risks, including but not limited to: • TLGY’s Initial Shareholders have entered into the Acquiror Support Agreement with TLGY and Verde to vote in favor of the Transaction, regardless of how TLGY’s public shareholders vote. • Neither the TLGY Board nor any committee thereof obtained a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in determining whether or not to pursue the Transaction. • Since TLGY’s Initial Shareholders, directors and executive officers have interests that are different, or in addition to (and which may conflict with), the interests of its shareholders, a conflict of interest may have existed in determining whether the Transaction with Verde is appropriate as TLGY’s initial business combination. Such interests include that TLGY’s Initial Shareholders, directors and executive officers, will lose their entire investment in TLGY if the initial business combination is not completed. • If the conditions to closing contained in the Merger Agreement are not met or waived, the Transaction may not occur. TLGY may change or waive one or more of the terms of, or conditions to, the Transaction, and the exercise of TLGY’s directors’ and executive officers’ discretion in agreeing to such changes may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes to the terms of the Transaction or waivers of conditions are appropriate and in TLGY’s shareholders’ best interest. • TLGY will not have any right to make damage claims against Verde for the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by Verde in the Merger Agreement. • The consummation of the Transaction is subject to compliance with the HSR Act, and, if certain conditions are not satisfied or waived, the Transaction may not be completed. • The Transaction may be completed even though material adverse effects may result from the announcement of the Transaction, industry-wide changes and other causes. • The merged company after the closing of the Transaction with Verde (“Verde PubCo”) may issue additional shares of Verde PubCo Common Stock or other equity securities without your approval, which would dilute your ownership interests and may depress the market price of your shares. • Verde’s financial forecasts, which were presented to the TLGY Board and are included in this proxy statement/prospectus, may not prove accurate. • The Sponsor is liable to ensure that proceeds of the Trust Account are not reduced by vendor claims in the event an initial business combination is not consummated. The Sponsor has also agreed to pay for any liquidation expenses if an initial business combination is not consummated. Such liability may have influenced the Sponsor’s decision to pursue the Transaction. • TLGY and Verde have incurred and expect to incur significant transaction costs in connection with the Transaction. • Past performance by TLGY and by its management team may not be indicative of future performance of an investment in TLGY or Verde PubCo. • The loss of any member or change in structure of Verde’s senior management team could adversely affect its business. • TLGY’s Existing Governing Documents waive the doctrine of corporate opportunity. • Activities taken by existing TLGY shareholders to increase the likelihood of approval of the Transaction Proposal and the other proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus could have a depressive effect on TLGY’s securities. • Because Verde is not conducting an underwritten public offering of its securities, no underwriter has conducted due diligence of Verde’s business, operations or financial condition or reviewed the disclosure in this proxy statement/prospectus. • The SEC has recently issued proposed rules relating to certain activities of SPACs. Certain of the procedures that TLGY, a potential business combination target, or others may determine to undertake in connection with such proposals may increase TLGY’s costs and the time needed to complete its initial business combination and may constrain the circumstances under which TLGY could complete an initial business combination. The need for compliance with the SPAC Rule Proposals may cause us to liquidate the funds in the Trust Account or liquidate the Company at an earlier time than we might otherwise choose. • If we are deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, we would be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities would be severely restricted. As a result, in such circumstances, unless we are able to modify our activities so that we would not be deemed an investment company, we would expect to abandon our efforts to complete an initial business combination and instead to liquidate the Company. • Changes in laws or regulations, or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations, may adversely affect TLGY’s business, including its ability to negotiate and complete its initial business combination, and results of operations. • To mitigate the risk that TLGY might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, TLGY may, at any time, instruct the trustee to liquidate the securities held in the Trust Account and instead instruct the trustee to hold the funds in the Trust Account in cash until the earlier of the consummation of TLGY’s initial business combination or its liquidation. As a result, following the liquidation of securities in the Trust Account, TLGY would likely receive minimal interest, if any, on the funds held in the Trust Account, which would reduce the dollar amount the public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of the Company. • Subsequent to the consummation of the Business Combination, Verde PubCo may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on its financial condition, results of operations and the share price of its securities, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment. • TLGY may be targeted by securities actions and derivative suits that could result in substantial costs and may delay or prevent the consummation of the Transaction. • TLGY’s independent registered public accounting firm’s report for TLGY contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a “going concern.” • Verde PubCo will incur increased costs as a result of being a public company. • TLGY’s shareholders who do not redeem their public shares will have a reduced ownership and voting interest after the Transaction and will exercise less influence over management. • Verde PubCo’s future success depends in part on recruiting and retaining key personnel. The loss of key personnel or the hiring of ineffective personnel after the Transaction could negatively impact the operations and profitability of Verde PubCo.

GRAPHIC

INVESTOR PRESENTATION / OCTOBER 2023 29 KEY RISKS RELATED TO THE TRANSACTION AND TLGY (CONTINUED) TLGY is subject to numerous risks, including but not limited to: • The unaudited pro forma financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus may not be indicative of what Verde PubCo’s actual financial position or results of operations would have been. • The ability of TLGY’s public shareholders to exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of its public shares may not allow it to complete the Transaction or optimize the capital structure of Verde PubCo and may increase the probability that the Transaction would be unsuccessful and that you will have to wait for liquidation in order to redeem your shares. • TLGY’s Initial Shareholders, as well as Verde, TLGY’s directors, executive officers, advisors and their respective affiliates may elect to purchase public shares prior to the consummation of the Transaction, which may influence the vote on the Transaction and reduce the public “float” of its Class A ordinary shares. • If our Initial Shareholders, officers, directors or their affiliates elect to purchase public shares from public shareholders, such purchases may affect the market price of TLGY’s securities. • If third parties bring claims against TLGY, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share (which was the offering price in its initial public offering). • TLGY’s directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of the Sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to the public stockholders. • TLGY may not have sufficient funds to satisfy indemnification claims of its directors and executive officers. • In the event TLGY distributes the proceeds in the Trust Account to its public shareholders and subsequently files a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against TLGY that is not dismissed, a bankruptcy court may seek to recover such proceeds, and TLGY and the TLGY Board may be exposed to claims of punitive damages. • If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to TLGY’s public shareholders, TLGY files a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against TLGY that is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of its shareholders and the per share amount that would otherwise be received by its shareholders in connection with its liquidation may be reduced. • TLGY’s shareholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against TLGY to the extent of distributions received by them upon redemption of their shares. • TLGY is and Verde PubCo will be an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if Verde PubCo takes advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to “emerging growth companies” or “smaller reporting companies,” this could make its securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare its performance with other public companies. • Compliance obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may make it more difficult for TLGY to effectuate the Transaction, require substantial financial and management resources and increase the time and costs of completing a business combination. • A significant portion of TLGY’s total outstanding shares are restricted from immediate resale but may be sold into the market in the near future. This could cause the market price of Verde PubCo Common Stock to drop significantly, even if Verde PubCo’s business is doing well. • Verde PubCo’s directors, executive officers and principal stockholders will continue to have substantial control over Verde PubCo’s company after the consummation of the Transaction, which could limit Verde PubCo’s ability to influence the outcome of key transactions, including a change of control. • Humanitario Capital, LLC., Verde’s principal stockholder, beneficially owns greater than 50% of Verde’s outstanding shares of common stock and is expected to own greater than 50% of Verde PubCo Common Stock following the consummation of the Transaction which will cause Verde PubCo to be deemed a “controlled company” under the rules of Nasdaq. • The public shareholders may experience immediate dilution as a consequence of the issuance of Verde PubCo Common Stock as consideration in the Transaction. • Warrants will become exercisable for Verde PubCo Common Stock, which, if exercised, would increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to its shareholders. • Even if the Transaction is consummated the terms of the warrants may be amended in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment. • Verde PubCo may redeem a warrant holder’s unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that may be disadvantageous to such warrant holder, thereby making its warrants worthless. • A warrant holder may only be able to exercise its public warrants on a “cashless basis” under certain circumstances, and if a warrant holder does so, such warrant holder will receive fewer Verde PubCo Common Stock from such exercise than if a warrant holder were to exercise such warrants for cash. • Even if we consummate the Transaction, there can be no assurance that our public warrants will be in the money at the time they become exercisable, and they may expire worthless. • If you elect to exercise your redemption rights with respect to your Class A ordinary shares, you will be deemed to have tendered your contingent right to receive distributable redeemable warrants for no additional consideration, and as a result, will not receive any distributable redeemable warrants in respect of such redeemed public shares. • If the amount of Class A ordinary shares redeemed by shareholders is low, shareholders who choose not to redeem their shares may only receive a small amount of distributable redeemable warrants. • TLGY’s warrant agreement designates the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of its warrants, which could limit the ability of warrant holders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with TLGY. • Nasdaq may not list Verde PubCo’s securities on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in Verde PubCo’s securities and subject Verde PubCo to additional trading restrictions. • An active, liquid trading market for Verde PubCo’s securities may not develop, which may limit your ability to sell such securities.

GRAPHIC

INVESTOR PRESENTATION / OCTOBER 2023 30 KEY RISKS RELATED TO THE TRANSACTION AND TLGY (CONTINUED) TLGY is subject to numerous risks, including but not limited to: • Reports published by analysts, including projections in those reports that differ from Verde PubCo’s actual results, could adversely affect the price and trading volume of its common shares. • Verde PubCo may fail to meet Verde PubCo’s publicly announced guidance or other expectations about Verde PubCo’s business, which would cause Verde PubCo’s stock price to decline. • Verde PubCo does not intend to pay cash dividends for the foreseeable future. • Because Verde PubCo does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its capital stock in the foreseeable future, capital appreciation, if any, will be your sole source of gain. • TLGY is subject to, and Verde PubCo will be subject to, changing law and regulations regarding regulatory matters, corporate governance and public disclosure that have increased both TLGY’s costs and the risk of non-compliance and will increase both Verde PubCo’s costs and the risk of non-compliance. • During the pendency of the Transaction, TLGY will not be able to solicit, initiate or take any action to facilitate or encourage any inquiries or the making, submission or announcement of, or enter into a Transaction with another party because of restrictions in the Merger Agreement. Furthermore, certain provisions of the Merger Agreement will discourage third parties from submitting alternative takeover proposals, including proposals that may be superior to the arrangements contemplated by the Merger Agreement. • Recent increases in inflation and interest rates in the United States and elsewhere could make it more difficult for TLGY to consummate the Transaction. • Military conflict in Ukraine or elsewhere may lead to increased volatility for publicly traded securities, which could make it more difficult for us to consummate an initial business combination. • Verde PubCo’s business and operations could be negatively affected if it becomes subject to any securities litigation or stockholder activism, which could cause Verde PubCo to incur significant expense, hinder execution of business and growth strategy and impact its stock price. • Verde PubCo will need, but may be unable to obtain, funding following the consummation of the Transaction on satisfactory terms, which could dilute Verde PubCo’s stockholders and investors, or impose burdensome financial restrictions on its business. Risks Related to the Domestication • The Domestication may result in adverse tax consequences for holders of TLGY Class A Ordinary Shares and TLGY public warrants, including holders exercising their redemption rights with respect to the TLGY Common Stock (such term to be used throughout this section “Risks Related to the Domestication” as such term is used in the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”). • Verde PubCo could be subject to changes in tax rates or the adoption of new tax legislation, whether in or out of the United States, or could otherwise have exposure to additional tax liabilities, which could harm its business. • Upon consummation of the Transaction, the rights of holders of Verde PubCo Common Stock arising under the DGCL as well as the Proposed Governing Documents will differ from and may be less favorable to the rights of holders of public shares arising under Cayman Islands Companies Law as well as the Existing Governing Documents. • Delaware law and Verde PubCo’s Proposed Governing Documents contain certain provisions, including anti-takeover provisions, that limit the ability of stockholders to take certain actions and could delay or discourage takeover attempts that stockholders may consider favorable. • Verde PubCo’s Proposed Charter will designate the Delaware Court of Chancery or the United States federal district courts as the sole and exclusive forum for substantially all disputes between Verde PubCo and its stockholders, which could limit Verde PubCo’s stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with Verde PubCo or its directors, officers, stockholders, employees or agents. • The Proposed Charter provides for indemnification of officers and directors of Verde PubCo at Verde PubCo’s expense, which may result in a significant cost to Verde PubCo and hurt the interests of its stockholders because corporate resources may be expended for the benefit of officers and/or directors.

INVESTOR PRESENTATION / OCTOBER 2023 31 KEY RISKS RELATED TO THE TRANSACTION AND TLGY (CONTINUED) Risks Related to the Redemption • Public shareholders who wish to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account must comply with specific requirements for redemption that may make it more difficult for them to exercise their redemption rights prior to the deadline. If shareholders fail to comply with the redemption requirements specified in this proxy statement/prospectus, they will not be entitled to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account. • If a public shareholder fails to receive notice of TLGY’s offer to redeem public shares in connection with the Transaction, or fails to comply with the procedures for tendering its shares, such shares may not be redeemed. • TLGY does not have a specified maximum redemption threshold. The absence of such a redemption threshold may make it possible for TLGY to complete the Transaction even though a substantial majority of TLGY’s public shareholders having redeemed their shares. • If you or a “group” of shareholders of which you are a part are deemed to hold an aggregate of more than 15% of the public shares, you (or, if a member of such a group, all of the members of such group in the aggregate) will lose the ability to redeem all such shares in excess of 15% of the public shares. • There is no guarantee that a shareholder’s decision whether to redeem its shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account will put the shareholder in a better future economic position. • The securities in which TLGY invests the funds held in the Trust Account could bear a negative rate of interest, which could reduce the value of the assets held in trust such that the per-share redemption amount received by public shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share. • U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising your redemption rights depend on your particular facts and circumstances. In addition, because the Domestication will occur prior to the redemption, if you exercise the redemption rights, you will be subject to the potential tax consequences of the Domestication as well. • A new 1% U.S. federal excise tax may be imposed on Verde PubCo in connection with the redemption of Verde PubCo Common Stock in connection with the Transaction. Risks if the Adjournment Proposal is Not Approved • If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved, and an insufficient number of votes have been obtained to authorize the consummation of the Transaction and the Domestication, the TLGY Board will not have the ability to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting to a later date in order to solicit further votes, and, therefore, the Transaction will not be approved, and, therefore, the Transaction may not be consummated. Risks if the Domestication and the Transaction are not Consummated • We cannot assure you that we will be able to complete the Transaction or any other business combination prior to April 3, 2023, the date by which we are required to complete a business combination or be forced to liquidate. • If TLGY is not able to complete the Transaction with Verde nor able to complete another business combination by April 3, 2023, in each case, as such date may be extended pursuant to its Existing Governing Documents, TLGY would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and TLGY would redeem its public shares and liquidate the Trust Account, in which case TLGY’s public shareholders may only receive approximately $10.00 per share and TLGY’s warrants will expire worthless. • Unlike other blank check companies, TLGY may extend the time to complete an initial business combination by up to nine months for paid extension. However, the Sponsor may decide not to extend the time for TLGY to complete an initial business combination. • You will not have any rights or interests in funds from the Trust Account, except under certain limited circumstances. To liquidate your investment, therefore, you may be forced to sell your public shares or public warrants, potentially at a loss. • If TLGY does not consummate the Transaction or any other business combination by April 3, 2023, TLGY’s public shareholders may be forced to wait until after April 3, 2023 before redemption proceeds from the Trust Account may become available to TLGY’s public shareholders. • If the cash held outside the Trust Account is insufficient to allow TLGY to operate through April 3, 2023, and TLGY is unable to obtain additional capital, TLGY may be unable to complete its initial business combination (including the Transaction), in which case TLGY’s public shareholders may only receive $10.00 per share, and TLGY’s warrants will expire worthless.
