State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period. (Attach extra Sheets if Needed)

Trebia Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) has determined that it is unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021 (the “Form 10-Q”) by the prescribed due date for the reasons described below.

On April 12, 2021, the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued a statement entitled “Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies.” In the statement, the Staff, among other things, highlighted potential accounting implications of certain terms that are common in warrants issued in connection with the initial public offerings of special purpose acquisition companies such as Trebia Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”). In connection with such statement, the Company revisited its accounting for its public warrants and private placement warrants issued in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the “Warrants”), as well as for the forward purchase agreement entered into with the Company’s anchor investor (the “FPA”), and determined that the Warrants and FPA should be treated as derivative liabilities, with changes in fair value each period reported in earnings, pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 815-40, Contracts in Entity's Own Equity, rather than as components of equity as the Company previously treated the Warrants and as a disclosed contractual obligation in the case of the FPA. The Company’s accounting for the Warrants and FPA as components of equity and a disclosed contractual obligation, respectively, rather than as derivative liabilities did not have any effect on the Company’s previously reported operating expenses, cashflows or cash.

On May 14, 2021, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of the Company, based on the recommendation of and after consultation with management, concluded that its unaudited interim financial statements for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020, and its audited financial statements as of and for the period ended December 31, 2020 (collectively, the “Affected Periods”), as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed August 14, 2020 and November 12, 2020 and, Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April 1, 2021, should no longer be relied upon because of the errors identified therein.

On May 18, 2021, the Company filed a Form 8-K announcing that its financial statements for the Non-Reliance Periods should no longer be relied upon. On May 18, 2021, the Company also filed a Form 10-K/A to amend the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 to restate the financial statements for the Non-Reliance Periods. The Company is reviewing the impacts of the corrections on the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021. As a result of the foregoing, as well as the time and dedication of resources needed to prepare the Form 10-Q, the Company was unable to provide complete financial results for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021 and file the Form 10-Q by the required due date of May 17, 2021 without unreasonable effort and expense. The Company is working diligently and currently expects to file its Form 10-Q within five calendar days, but ultimately may not be able to do so.
