In addition to historical information, this presentation may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this presentation that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements and are identified with, but not limited to, words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “estimate”, “plan”, “outlook”, and “project” and other similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions). Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, information concerning the Company’s possible or assumed future results of operations, including all statements regarding anticipated future growth, business strategies, competitive position, industry environment, potential growth opportunities and the effects of regulation. These statements are based on management’s current expectations and beliefs, as well as a number of assumptions concerning future events. Such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside the Company’s management’s control that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. These risks include, without limitation, the risk that the Company’s transaction with The Dow Chemical Company (“Dow”) consummated on July 31, 2015 (the “Business Combination”) disrupts current plans and operations; the Company’s ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and the ability of the combined business to grow and manage growth profitably; costs related to the Business Combination and/or related to operating AgroFresh as a stand-alone public company; changes in applicable laws or regulations, and the possibility that the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors. Additional risks and uncertainties are identified and discussed in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 16, 2015, available at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. As a result of the Business Combination, the Company was identified as the acquirer for accounting purposes, and the AgroFresh Business, which is the business conducted prior to the closing of the Business Combination by Dow through a combination of wholly-owned subsidiaries and operations of Dow, including through AgroFresh Inc. in the United States, is the acquiree and accounting Predecessor. The Company’s financial statement presentation reflects the AgroFresh Business as the “Predecessor” for periods through July 31, 2015 (the “Closing Date”). Where we discuss results for the period ended September 30, 2015, we are referring to the combined results of the Predecessor for the month ending July 31, 2015 and the Successor for the two months ending September 30, 2015. On the Closing Date, the Company, which was formerly named Boulevard Acquisition Corp., was re-named AgroFresh Solutions, Inc. and is the “Successor” for periods after the Closing Date, which includes consolidation of the AgroFresh Business subsequent to the Closing Date. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, and the Successor financial statements reflect a new basis of accounting that is based on the fair value of net assets acquired. As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting as of the effective time of the Business Combination, the financial statements for the Predecessor period and for the Successor period are presented on different bases. The historical financial information of Boulevard Acquisition Corp. prior to the Business Combination has not been reflected in the Predecessor period financial statements as those amounts are not considered to be material. This presentation contains certain financial measures, in particular non-GAAP earnings per share Adjusted EBITDA, Constant Currency Adjusted EBITDA and Constant Currency Net Sales, which are not presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are being presented because the Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information as they are used by the Company’s management to evaluate the Company’s performance, seen as likely to enhance a reader’s understanding of the financial performance of the Company, are more indicative of operating performance of the Company, and facilitate a better comparison among fiscal periods, as the non-GAAP measures exclude items that are not considered core to the Company’s operations. In particular, Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by the Company to evaluate its performance, and is calculated by the Company in a manner consistent with the definition of Consolidated EBITDA in the Company’s Credit Agreement. The Company does not intend for any of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this presentation to be a substitute for any GAAP financial information. Readers of this presentation should use these non-GAAP financial measures only in conjunction with the comparable GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are provided in the tables at the end of this presentation. Safe Harbor January 2016

(3) While working capital may build from the period from December 31, 2014 to September 30, 2015, year-over-year changes are minimal. The largest portion of the seasonal build is Accounts Receivable, which are not "uses" of cash. The Company expects to be a cash taxpayer in the future at an estimated 37% rate. In 2015, the Company may be in a net loss position pretax given amortization of step-ups for purchase and other deductible expenses. The Company will benefit from 15% of the cash tax benefits from step-ups for purchase, with Dow benefitting from 85% of such step-ups. See Form 10-Q filed November 16, 2015, pages 13 and 23, which describes the discounted fair value of the tax amortization benefit contingency to Dow as $ 147.6MM (undiscounted amount is $319.0 million over 15 years).
