AppHarvest (Novus Capital Corp) ^{Priced, Nasdaq: APPH}

We are a blank check company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 5, 2020. We will seek to capitalize on the significant experience and contacts of our management team to complete our initial business combination. We believe our management team’s distinctive background and experience in both the public and private markets could have a significant impact on our ability to consummate an initial business combination. Although we may pursue an initial business combination with a target business in any industry or geographic location, we currently intend to focus on opportunities in the smart technology innovations market. Specifically, we intend to target companies that are at the forefront of high technology and are enabling the future evolution of 5G communication, virtual reality, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, machine learning, hardware and software distribution and value-added customized logistics services. Our management team has significant hands-on experience helping high-tech companies optimize their existing and new growth initiatives by exploiting insights from rich data assets and intellectual property that already exist within most high-tech companies. We believe that these relationships and our officers’ and directors’ know-how present a significant opportunity to help drive strategic dialogue, access new customer relationships and improve operating results following the completion of our initial business combination.
