The absence of such words or expressions does not necessarily mean the statements are not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact and reflect Tempus’ and Personalis’ current views about future events. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the proposed transaction between Tempus and Personalis. Although we believe our forward-looking statements are reasonable, statements made regarding future results are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to numerous assumptions, uncertainties and risks that are difficult to predict. Actual outcomes and results may be materially different from the results stated or implied in such forward-looking statements included in this communication. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements in this communication due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement, the possibility that Personalis stockholders may not adopt the merger agreement, the risk that Tempus or Personalis may be unable to obtain governmental and regulatory approvals and clearances required for the proposed transaction, or required governmental and regulatory approvals and clearances may delay the merger or result in the imposition of conditions that could cause the parties to abandon the merger, the risk that the parties may not be able to satisfy the conditions to the proposed transaction in a timely manner or at all, risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business operations due to the proposed transaction, the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on the market price of Tempus’ common stock or Personalis’ common stock, the risk that prior to the closing the market price of Tempus’ Class A common stock falls below $46.00 giving rise to the right for Personalis to terminate the Merger Agreement, the risk of any unexpected costs or expenses resulting from the proposed transaction, the risk of any litigation relating to the proposed transaction, the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of Tempus and/or Personalis to retain and hire key personnel, on the ability of Personalis to attract third-party customers, or on Personalis’ operating results and businesses generally, the risk that problems may arise in successfully integrating the businesses of the companies, which may result in the combined company not operating as effectively and efficiently as expected, the risk that the combined company may be unable to achieve synergies or other anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction or it may take longer than expected to achieve those synergies or benefits and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, the risk that third-party payers, including commercial payers and government healthcare programs, may not provide adequate coverage of, or reimbursement for, the combined company’s tests and data offerings, the effect of future regulatory or legislative actions on the companies or the industry in which they operate, including with respect to healthcare regulation and data privacy and security, the risk that the credit ratings of the combined business may be different from what the companies expect, the combined company’s ability to identify and mitigate the operational, legal, reputational and competitive risks associated with its use of artificial intelligence in its products and services, adverse economic conditions and other factors detailed in Tempus’ and Personalis’ Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

All such factors are difficult to predict and are beyond Tempus’ and Personalis’ control. Additional risks or uncertainties that are not currently known to Tempus or Personalis, that Tempus or Personalis currently deem to be immaterial, or that could apply to any company could also cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements in this communication. Tempus and Personalis undertake no obligation to publicly correct or update the forward-looking statements in this communication, in other documents or on their respective websites to reflect new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. All such statements are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof.
