Redemption Date and the volume weighted average price (the &#147;Fair Market Value&#148;) of the Common Stock during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to holders of Warrants. The Company
will inform holders of the Fair Market Value no later than one business day after such <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-trading</FONT> day period ends. In no event will the number of shares of Common Stock issued in connection with an exercise on

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This press release may contain certain &#147;forward-looking statements&#148; within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,
Section&nbsp;27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section&nbsp;21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based on Rocket Lab&#146;s current expectations and beliefs concerning
future developments and their potential effects. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond Rocket Lab&#146;s control), or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be
materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this press release, including risks related to the
global <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">COVID-19</FONT> pandemic, including risks related to government restrictions and lock-downs in New Zealand and other countries in which we operate that could delay or suspend our operations; delays and
disruptions in expansion efforts; our dependence on a limited number of customers; the harsh and unpredictable environment of space in which our products operate which could adversely affect our launch vehicle and spacecraft; increased congestion
from the proliferation of low Earth orbit constellations which could materially increase the risk of potential collision with space debris or another spacecraft and limit or impair our launch flexibility and/or access to our own orbital slots;
increased competition in our industry due in part to rapid technological development and decreasing costs; technological change in our industry which we may not be able to keep up with or which may render our services uncompetitive; average selling
price trends; failure of our launch vehicles, satellites and components to operate as intended either due to our error in design in production or through no fault of our own; launch schedule disruptions; supply chain disruptions, product delays or
failures; design and engineering flaws; launch failures; natural disasters and epidemics or pandemics; changes in governmental regulations including with respect to trade and export restrictions, or in the status of our regulatory approvals or
applications; or other events that force us to cancel or reschedule launches, including customer contractual rescheduling and termination rights; risks that acquisitions may not be completed on the anticipated timeframe or at all or do not achieve
the anticipated benefits and results; and the other risks detailed from time to time in Rocket Lab&#146;s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including under the heading &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in the prospectus dated
October&nbsp;7, 2021 related to our Registration Statement on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-1</FONT> (File <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">No.&nbsp;333-259757),</FONT> which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant
to Rule 424(b) on October&nbsp;7, 2021 and elsewhere (including that the impact of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">COVID-19</FONT> pandemic may also exacerbate the risks discussed therein). There can be no assurance that the future developments
affecting Rocket Lab will be those that we have anticipated. Except as required by law, Rocket Lab is not undertaking any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Contact Information </B></P>
