Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K only speaks at the date hereof and contains, and related
discussions may contain, forward- looking statements within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws. These statements include descriptions regarding the intent, belief, estimates, assumptions or current expectations of Aurora, Better
or their respective officers with respect to the consolidated results of operations and financial condition, future events and plans of Aurora and Better. These forward-looking statements may be identified by a reference to a future period or by the
use of forward-looking terminology. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as expect, believe, foresee, anticipate, intend, estimate,
goal, strategy, plan, target and project or conditional verbs such as will, may, should, could or would or the negative of these
terms, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based upon
managements current expectations, beliefs, estimates and projections, and various assumptions, many of which are inherently uncertain and beyond Auroras and Betters control. Such expectations, beliefs, estimates and projections are
expressed in good faith, and management believes there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that managements expectations, beliefs, estimates and projections will be achieved, and actual results may differ
materially from what is expressed in or indicated by the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by an investor as, a
guarantee, an assurance, a prediction, or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Better is experiencing significant changes within the mortgage lending and servicing ecosystem which have magnified such uncertainties. In the past, actual
results have differed from those suggested by forward-looking statements and this may happen again.
Important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, Betters performance, capabilities, strategy, and outlook; our expectations regarding the sustainability of
Betters rapid growth and its ability to manage its growth effectively; the demand for Betters solutions and products and services, including the size of Betters addressable market, market share, and market trends; Betters
ability to operate under and maintain Betters business model; Betters ability to develop and protect its brand; our expectations regarding financial performance including Betters operational and financial targets; our estimates

estimates of, the value of Betters assets; any changes in macro-economic conditions and in U.S. residential real estate market conditions, including changes in prevailing interest rates or monetary policies and the effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic; Betters expectations regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Betters business including on the volume of consumers refinancing existing
loans, Betters ability to produce loans, liquidity and employees; Betters competitive position; Betters ability to improve and expand its information technology and financial infrastructure, security and compliance requirements and
operating and administrative systems; Betters future investments in its technology and operations; Betters intellectual property position, including its ability to maintain, protect and enhance Betters intellectual property; the
need to hire additional personnel and Betters ability to attract and retain such personnel; Betters ability to obtain additional capital and maintain cash flow or obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us; the
effects of Betters existing and future indebtedness on its liquidity and Betters ability to operate our business; our expectations concerning relationships with third parties; Betters plans to adopt the secured overnight financing
rate (SOFR); the impact of laws and regulations and Betters ability to comply with such laws and regulations including laws and regulations relating to fair lending, real estate brokerage matters, title and settlement services,
consumer protection, advertising, tax, title insurance, loan production and servicing activities, data privacy, and anti-corruption; any changes in certain U.S. government-sponsored entities and government agencies, including Fannie Mae, Freddie
Mac, Ginnie Mae and the FHA; Auroras expectations regarding the period during which we will qualify as an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act; the increased expenses associated with being a public company; and Betters anticipated
