Forward-looking statements in this Presentation may include, for illustrative and non-exhaustive purposes only, statements about: • Cohen’s ability to engage in and complete the Initial Business Combination; • Cohen’s expectations and estimates regarding the performance of the Company; • Cohen’s expectations and estimates regarding the markets and market participants relevant to the Company; • Cohen’s public securities’ potential liquidity and trading; • Cohen’s financial performance following its initial public offering; • The Company’s projected future operational and financial performance, including anticipated benefits of the Initial Business Combination.

Disclaimer 3 Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

This presentation includes trademarks, tradenames and service marks, certain of which belong to us and others that are the property of other organizations. Solely for convenience, trademarks, tradenames and service marks referred to in this presentation appear without the ®, TM and SM symbols, but the absence of those symbols is not intended to indicate, in any way, that we will not assert our rights, or that the applicable owner will not assert its rights, to these trademarks, tradenames and service marks to the fullest extent under applicable law. We do not intend our use or display of other parties’ trademarks, tradenames or service marks to imply, and such use or display should not be construed to imply, a relationship with, or endorsement or sponsorship of us by, these other parties. The financial information and data contained in this Presentation are based on draft accounts, do not conform to Regulation S-X and are subject to PCAOB audit. For example, information that is shown as “2024P” means preliminary financial information as of the year ended December 31, 2024, which remains subject to completion of a PCAOB audit. Accordingly, such information and data may not be included in, may be adjusted in or may be presented differently in the final registration statement to be filed with the SEC and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus contained therein in connection with the Initial Business Combination. This presentation includes certain financial and operating measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Underlying Adj. EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin, CAPEX excl. licenses and ROU, and measures calculated based on these measures, that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) or international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”). These non-GAAP/non-IFRS measures, and other measures that are calculated using these non-GAAP/non-IFRS measures, are an addition, and not a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP or IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or IFRS. The Company believes these non-GAAP/non-IFRS measures of financial results provide useful information to management and potential investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP/non-IFRS financial measures provides an additional tool for potential investors to use in comparing the Company’s financial condition and results of operations with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP/non-IFRS financial measures to investors. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP/non-IFRS financial measures and their nearest GAAP/IFRS equivalents. For example, VEON’s definitions of non-GAAP/non-IFRS financial measures may differ from non-GAAP/non-IFRS financial measures used by other companies and therefore the non-GAAP/non-IFRS measures in this Presentation may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Cohen expresses current intentions only. The Presentation and the information contained in it do not constitute an offer capable of acceptance or intended to otherwise give rise to a binding contract. The Presentation and the information contained in it do not constitute a commitment of Cohen, the Company or VEON to engage in the Initial Business Combination or to underwrite or place any financing or securities in relation to the Initial Business Combination. Unless and until a definitive agreement is entered into regarding the Potential Transaction, Cohen will not be under any obligation whatsoever with respect to the Potential Transaction, including, without limitation, to negotiate terms of the Potential Transaction, except as specifically set forth herein. The information contained in this Presentation is based on present circumstances, economic and market conditions, assumptions, and beliefs. Neither Cohen, the Company nor VEON have any obligation to update this Presentation or correct any inaccuracies or omissions it discovers following the date of this Presentation.
