NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FirstMark Horizon Acquisition Corp.
(“FMAC” or “FirstMark”) (NYSE: FMAC) reminds its stockholders of
the structure in its proposed business combination with Starry,
Inc. (“Starry”) and Starry Group Holdings, Inc. (“Starry Group
Holdings”) that provides non-redeeming stockholders with a pro rata
right to a portion of additional shares of the post-business
combination company and reminds FirstMark stockholders to vote
“FOR” the proposed business combination with Starry and Starry
Group Holdings.
Pro Rata Share and Value Distribution to Non-Redeeming
Stockholders
The proposed business combination with Starry is structured
to provide FMAC stockholders that do not redeem their shares of
FMAC common stock with a right to a pro rata portion of an
additional 1,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share, of Starry Group Holdings, the post-business
combination public company (“Starry Group Holdings Class A Common
Stock”). These shares of Starry Group Holdings Class A Common
Stock have been registered pursuant to the registration statement
on Form S-4 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
November 5, 2021, as amended and supplemented from time to time,
and will be delivered by the exchange agent to non-redeeming
stockholders of FMAC upon the consummation of the proposed business
combination.
These pro rata shares result in additional value being delivered to
non-redeeming stockholders based on the final Class A Exchange
Ratio of between 1.0242 and 1.2415, which depends on the overall
level of redemptions. The table below represents possible scenarios

forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are
predictions, projections and other statements about future events
that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a
result, are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause the
actual results to differ materially from the expected results.
These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not
identified in this communication. 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,

probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or
impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. These
forward-looking statements include, without limitation, Starry’s
and FirstMark’s expectations with respect to the anticipated
financial impacts of the proposed business combination, the
satisfaction of closing conditions to the proposed business
combination, and the timing of the completion of the proposed
business combination. You should carefully consider the risks and
uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of
FirstMark’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No.
333-248916), its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended from time
to time, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, and its
subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. In addition, there are
risks and uncertainties described in the definitive proxy
statement/prospectus filed by Starry Group Holdings and other
documents filed by FirstMark or Starry Group Holdings from time to
time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other
important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events
and results to differ materially from those contained in the
forward-looking statements. Most of these factors are outside
Starry’s, Starry Group Holdings’ and FirstMark’s control and are
difficult to predict. Many factors could cause actual future events
to differ from the forward-looking statements in this
communications, including but not limited to: (1) the outcome of
any legal proceedings that may be instituted against FirstMark,
Starry or Starry Group Holdings following the announcement of the
proposed business combination; (2) the inability to complete the
proposed business combination, including due to the inability to
concurrently close the business combination and related
transactions, including the private placements of common stock and
convertible notes or due to failure to obtain approval of the
stockholders of FirstMark; (3) the risk that the proposed business
combination may not be completed by FirstMark’s business
combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an
extension of the business combination deadline if sought by
FirstMark; (4) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the
consummation of the proposed business combination, including the
approval by the stockholders of FirstMark, the satisfaction of the
minimum trust account amount following any redemptions by
FirstMark’s public stockholders and the receipt of certain
governmental and regulatory approvals; (5) delays in obtaining,
adverse conditions contained in, or the inability to obtain
necessary regulatory approvals or complete regulatory reviews
required to complete the proposed business combination; (6) the
occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could
give rise to the termination of the merger agreement; (7)
volatility in the price of FirstMark’s, Starry’s or Starry Group
Holdings’ securities; (8) the risk that the proposed business
combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of
the announcement and consummation of the business combination; (9)
the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed
business combination, which may be affected by, among other things,
competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage
growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and
suppliers and retain key employees; (10) costs related to the
proposed business combination; (11) changes in the applicable laws
or regulations; (12) the possibility that the combined company may
be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or
competitive factors; (13) the risk of downturns and a changing
regulatory landscape in the highly competitive industry in which
Starry operates; (14) the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic;
(15) Starry’s ability to obtain or maintain rights to use licensed
spectrum in any market in which Starry operates and potential
declines in the value of Starry’s FCC licenses; (16) the potential
inability of Starry to raise additional capital needed to pursue
its business objectives or to achieve efficiencies regarding other
costs; (17) the enforceability of Starry’s intellectual property,
including its patents, and the potential infringement on the
intellectual property rights of others, cyber security risks or
potential breaches of data security; and (18) other risks and
uncertainties described in FirstMark’s registration statement on
Form S-1 and Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended from time to
time, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and its
subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and in the definitive
proxy statement/prospectus filed by Starry Group Holdings. These
risks and uncertainties may be amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic,
which has caused significant economic uncertainty. Starry, Starry
Group Holdings and FirstMark caution that the foregoing list of
factors is not exclusive or exhaustive and not to place undue
reliance upon any forward-looking statements, including
projections, which speak only as of the date made. None of Starry,
Starry Group Holdings or FirstMark gives any assurance that Starry,
Starry Group Holdings or FirstMark will achieve its expectations.
None of Starry, Starry Group Holdings or FirstMark undertakes or
accepts any obligation to publicly provide revisions or updates to
any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future developments or otherwise, or should
