Immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Elliott Funds contributed their Shares to Newco for cancellation at the Effective Time for no consideration. | |
| The Voting Agreement terminated in accordance with its terms upon the consummation of the Merger. | |
| Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each of the former members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer resigned, and Jesse Cohn and Isaac Kim, who were the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, became the sole directors of the Issuer. The officers of the Issuer immediately prior to the Effective Time continued as officers of the Issuer following the Merger. | |
| At the Effective Time, the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation, as in effect immediately prior to the Merger, was amended and restated in its entirety to read identically to the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub, and Merger Sub’s bylaws, as in effect immediately prior to the Merger, became the bylaws of the Issuer. | |
