Benson Hill (Star Peak Corp. II) ^{Priced, NYSE: BHIL}

We are a newly formed blank check company. Although we may pursue our initial business combination in any business, industry or geographic location, we currently intend to focus our efforts primarily on identifying businesses seeking to be a market leader in, and/or benefit from the increasing global initiatives to improve sustainability and/or reduce global emissions. To that end, we intend to seek opportunities that capitalize on the expertise and ability of our management team to identify and transact with a business in the broadly-defined sustainability sector. This industry includes, but is not limited to, clean energy and power (including generation, storage, smart grid technologies and hydrogen technologies and fuel cells), sustainable food and agriculture, transportation (including electric vehicles, mobility and fueling or charging infrastructure), resource management (including energy efficiency and carbon capture), environmental services (including waste management, pollution control, water and recycling) and technology enabled sustainable solutions (including supply chain management) (collectively, “Sustainability”) in North America. We will seek to capitalize on our management team’s decades of combined investment experience to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our efforts on identifying a prospective target company or business will not be limited to a particular industry.
