[NAME],

I hope that this finds all well with you. If you will recall, we met on [DATE] in conjunction with the PIPE investment.

As you may be aware, last Thursday, DPCM Capital, Inc. and D-Wave Systems Inc. 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, related to the previously announced proposed business combination between D-Wave and DPCM Capital, has been declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

As a result, DPCM Capital will hold a special meeting of stockholders on August 2nd to approve, among other things, the business combination with D-Wave.

In conjunction with this, Alan Baratz, D-Wave’s CEO, and I would like to schedule a call with you to discuss your investment objectives and corresponding interest in maintaining, and not redeeming, your shares of XPOA. As you may know, our existing “tontine” bonus structure of up to 5 million shares serves to lower the per share cost basis for non-redeeming shareholders – to as low as $6.88 per share. In addition, we would welcome the opportunity to address any questions that you may have about your investment and our business.

Please let me know your availability for a call and we look forward to speaking with you.

Sincerely,

John

John M. Markovich

Chief Financial Officer
