On
May 4, 2021, Arbe Robotics Ltd., an Israeli company (“Arbe”), issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing
that its 4D Imaging Radar Solution with 2K resolution is available on the open NVIDIA DRIVE platform. As announced on March 18, 2021,
and described in greater detail in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Industrial Tech Acquisitions, Inc. (“ITAC”) with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 24, 2021, ITAC and Arbe entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement, dated
as of March 18, 2021, pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, among other things, a newly-formed
corporation that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Arbe will merge with and into ITAC, with ITAC surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary
of Arbe, and the holders of ITAC’s common stock and warrants will become holders of Arbe ordinary shares and warrants, all as set
forth in the Business Combination Agreement.
A
copy of the Press Release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Press Release is intended to be furnished
and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Forward-Looking
Statements
This
report contains, and certain oral statements made by representatives of ITAC and Arbe and their respective affiliates from time to time
may contain, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about Arbe and NVIDIA and the transactions
described in the Press Release, and the parties’ perspectives and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Such statements
include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the proposed partnership between Arbe and NVIDIA, expected growth opportunities
for Arbe, anticipated future financial and operating performance and results attributable therefrom, and the expected timing of the implementation
of the partnership, as well as ITAC’s and Arbe’s expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial
impacts of the transactions (the “Transactions”) contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the satisfaction of
the closing conditions to the Transactions and the timing of the completion of the Transactions. The words “expect,” “believe,”
“estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “project,” “may,”
“will,” “could,” “should,” “potential” and similar words or expressions indicate forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to various risks and uncertainties,
assumptions (including assumptions about general economic, market, industry and operational factors), known or unknown, which could cause
the actual results to vary materially from those indicated or anticipated. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited
to, risks related to: (i) the expected timing and likelihood of the generation of revenue from the NVIDIA DRIVE platform; (ii) the occurrence
of any event, change or other circumstances that could affect Arbe's use of the NVIDIA DRIVE platform; (iii) costs related to the making
Arbe's products accessible through the NVIDIA DRIVE platform; (iv) the occurrence of a material adverse change with respect to the financial
position, performance, operations or prospects of Arbe or NVIDIA; (v) the disruption of Arbe management time from ongoing business operations
or performance of the units to be sold through the NVIDIA DRIVE platform; (vi) changes in applicable laws or regulations, including laws
and regulations affecting the market for Arbe’s products; (vii) the possibility that Arbe may be adversely affected by other economic,
business, and/or competitive factors, or the continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the worsening thereof or other future pandemics;
(viii) the expected timing and likelihood of completion of the Transactions, including the risk that the Transactions may not close due
to one or more closing conditions to the Transactions in the Business Combination Agreement not being satisfied or waived on a timely
basis or otherwise, or that the required approval of the Business Combination Agreement and related matters by the shareholders of Arbe
and ITAC are not obtained; (ix) a default by one or more of the investors in the PIPE on its commitment, and ITAC’s failure to
retain sufficient cash in its trust account or find replacement financing in order to meet the $100 million minimum cash condition in
the Business Combination Agreement; (x) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination
of the Business Combination Agreement; (xi) the occurrence of a material adverse change with respect to the financial position, performance,
operations or prospects of Arbe or ITAC; (xii) the ability of Arbe to meet Nasdaq listing standards following the Transactions and in
connection with the consummation thereof; (xiii) risks related to the matters set forth in the Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting
Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies, issued by the Division of Corporate Finance of the SEC on
April 12, 2021 and costs related to such matters; and (xiv) other risks and uncertainties, including those to be identified in the proxy
statement/prospectus (when available) relating to the proposed business combination between ITAC and Arbe, including those under “Risk
Factors,” “Cautionary Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” and “Arbe Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” therein, and in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
by ITAC or Arbe. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties
materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those indicated or anticipated
by such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these or any forward-looking statements,
which relate only to the date they were made, and no party undertakes any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect
events or circumstances after the date they were made, except as may be required by law or applicable regulation.
Important
Information About the Transactions and Where to Find It
Arbe
intends to file with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form F-4, which will include a proxy statement of ITAC that constitutes a prospectus
for Arbe and a definitive proxy statement for ITAC’s stockholders. Promptly after filing its definitive proxy statement with the
SEC, ITAC will mail the definitive proxy statement and a proxy card to each stockholder entitled to vote at the special meeting relating
to the Transactions. Investors and securityholders of ITAC and other interested persons are advised to read, when available, the preliminary
proxy statement, and amendments thereto, and the definitive proxy statement in connection with ITAC’s solicitation of proxies for
the special meeting to be held to approve the Business Combination Agreement and the Transactions because these documents will contain
important information about ITAC, Arbe, the Business Combination Agreement and the Transactions. The definitive proxy statement will
be mailed to securityholders of ITAC as of a record date to be established for voting on the Business Combination Agreement and the Transactions.
The definitive proxy statement, the preliminary proxy statement and other relevant materials in connection with the transaction (when
they become available), and any other documents filed by ITAC with the SEC, may be obtained free of charge at the SEC's website (www.sec.gov)
or by writing to ITAC at: 5090 Richmond Ave., Suite 319, Houston TX, 77056.
Participants
in the Solicitation
Arbe,
ITAC and their respective directors, executive officers and employees and other persons may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation
of proxies from the holders of ITAC common stock in respect of the proposed Transactions. Information about ITAC's directors and executive
officers and their ownership of ITAC's common stock is set forth in ITAC's filings with the SEC. Additional information regarding the
interests of the participants in the proxy solicitation will be included in the proxy statement pertaining to the proposed Transactions
when it becomes available. These documents can be obtained free of charge from the sources indicated above.
Disclaimer
This
communication shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities pursuant to the proposed Transactions
or otherwise, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful
prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made
except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
