Re: D-Wave Systems Inc. and DPCM Capital, Inc. Announce Effectiveness of Registration Statement

Dear [NAME HERE],

We are excited to share that D-Wave Systems Inc., a leader in quantum computing systems, software, and services and DPCM Capital, Inc. (NYSE: XPOA) today announced that the registration statement on Form S-4 filed by D-Wave Quantum Inc., a newly formed company that will be the parent company of D-Wave and DPCM Capital, (the “Registration Statement”) related to the previously announced proposed business combination between D-Wave and DPCM Capital (the “Business Combination”) has been declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The declaration of effectiveness of the Registration Statement by the SEC, and the related filing and mailing of the definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) by DPCM Capital, is an important step in D-Wave becoming a publicly-traded company listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the new ticker symbols “QBTS” and “QBTS.WS” shortly after the closing of the Business Combination.

D-Wave Is Commercial Today:

 

   

Only annealing quantum computing company in the world, and, we believe, the only quantum computing company uniquely positioned to capture the quantum hardware, software and services vendors’ portion of the TAM for combinatorial optimization problems: near term $100M- $250M to longer term $22B - $42B, representing approximately 25% of the overall anticipated quantum computing TAM available to such vendors.1 And with our gate model program, we are the only company that expects to be able to address the full quantum TAM.

Two dozen Forbes Global 2000 customers exploring quantum hybrid applications, including those nearing production stage.

 

   

The only complete end-to-end quantum solution, encompassing hardware, software, real-time quantum cloud service, developer tools and powerful quantum hybrid solvers, and the only company building both annealing and gate-model quantum computers.

 

   

Broad portfolio of 200+ patents applicable to both annealing and gate-based quantum computing.

 

   

Relentless product delivery, representing five generations of quantum computers to date. And in June 2022, we made an experimental prototype of our 6th generation machine, Advantage2, available in the Leap quantum cloud service.

 

   

68% of QCaaS revenue in 2021 came from commercial customers.

The Deal Economics Are Novel:

 

   

5 million share bonus pool, designed to reward DPCM Capital stockholders that choose to become D-Wave stockholders.

 

   

Lowers investors’ cost basis in DPCM Capital common stock per share by as much as $3.12, or 31%.

We are excited to take this next step, allowing us to build the business and further deliver the immense power of quantum computing for business and society.
