The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are referred to herein as the “proposed transaction.”
The Merger Agreement, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, provides for (a) the transfer of the registration of Churchill by way of continuation from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”), and (b) following the Domestication, the merger of Merger Sub with and into Agility with Agility continuing as the surviving entity and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Churchill. In connection with the business combination, Churchill will change its name to “Agility Robotics, Inc.”
In connection with the proposed transaction, Agility held an analyst and investor day on October 6, 2026.

These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause Churchill’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such statements. Such risks and uncertainties include: that Agility is pursuing an emerging technology, faces significant technical challenges and may not achieve commercialization or market acceptance; Agility’s historical net losses and limited operating history; Agility’s expectations regarding future financial performance, capital requirements and unit economics; Agility’s use and reporting of business and operational metrics; Agility’s competitive landscape; Agility’s dependence on members of its senior management and its ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the potential need for additional future financing; the capital requirements of Agility’s business plans; Agility’s ability to manage growth and expand its operations; potential future acquisitions or investments in companies, products, services or technologies; Agility’s reliance on strategic partners and other third parties; Agility’s reliance on global supply chains and the risk that disruptions, tariffs, or trade restrictions could delay production, increase costs, and limit Agility’s ability to fulfill customer orders; Agility’s ability to maintain, protect and defend its intellectual property rights; risks associated with privacy, data protection or cybersecurity incidents and related regulations; risks associated with product liability, workplace safety regulations and potential injuries arising from the deployment of humanoid robots alongside human workers; the use, rate of adoption and regulation of artificial intelligence and machine learning; the evolving regulatory landscape for AI technologies across multiple jurisdictions and the risk that failure to comply with new or changing AI laws could result in enforcement actions, fines or restrictions on Agility’s ability to develop or deploy its products; uncertainty or changes with respect to laws and regulations, including evolving safety standards and regulatory requirements applicable to humanoid robots; uncertainty or changes with respect to taxes, trade conditions and the macroeconomic environment; the combined company’s ability to maintain internal control over financial reporting and operate a public company; the risk that the proposed transaction may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Churchill’s securities; the failure by the parties to satisfy the conditions to consummation of the proposed transaction, including the approval of Churchill’s shareholders; the possibility that required regulatory approvals for the proposed transaction are delayed or are not obtained, which could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction; the risk that shareholders of Churchill could elect to have their shares redeemed, leaving the combined company with insufficient cash to execute its business plans; the level of redemptions of Churchill’s public shareholders; the ability of Agility to grow and manage growth, maintain relationships with customers and strategic partners, and retain its management and key employees; costs related to the proposed transaction; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the business combination agreement; the outcome of any legal proceedings or government investigations that may be commenced against Agility or Churchill; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction; the possibility that Agility may be adversely affected by other economic, business or competitive factors; Agility’s estimates of expenses and profitability; the possibility that preliminary, unaudited financial information may change materially; changes in anticipated pricing and revenue models of Agility’s humanoid robotics solutions; the evolution of the markets in which Agility competes; the ability of Agility to implement its strategic initiatives and continue to innovate its existing products and services; risks related to Agility’s ability to satisfy contractual milestones and achieve anticipated manufacturing capacity and production targets; Agility’s ability to convert orders and pipeline into revenue; risks related to the development, commercialization and market acceptance of Digit 5 and related technologies; the ability of Churchill or the combined company to issue equity or equity-linked securities in connection with the proposed transaction or in the future; and other factors described in Churchill’s filings with the SEC. Additional information concerning these and other factors that may impact such forward-looking statements can be found in filings and potential filings by Agility, Churchill or the combined company resulting from the proposed transaction with the SEC, including under the heading “Risk Factors.” If any of these risks materialize or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. In addition, these statements reflect the expectations, plans and forecasts of Agility’s and Churchill’s management as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K; subsequent events and developments may cause their assessments to change. While Agility and Churchill may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, they specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon these statements.
In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect Churchill’s beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and Churchill’s statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.
An investment in Churchill is not an investment in any of Churchill’s founders’ or sponsors’ past investments, companies or affiliated funds. The historical results of those investments are not indicative of future performance of Churchill, which may differ materially from the performance of Churchill’s founders’ or sponsors’ past investments.
