Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into DTIH, with DTIH surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of ROC (the Merger, and together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the other agreements contemplated thereby, the Business Combination). In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination (the Closing), ROC changed its name to Drilling Tools International Corporation.

In connection with the Closing, and pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, among other things, each share of (i) common stock of DTIH (DTIH Common Stock) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing was converted into the right to receive 0.2282 shares of Common Stock and (ii) each share of preferred stock of DTIH (DTIH Preferred Stock) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing was converted into the right to receive (a) $0.54 in cash per share of DTIH Preferred Stock and (b) 0.3299 shares of Common Stock.

The Reporting Person may, directly or through one or more affiliates, from time to time or at any time, acquire or seek to acquire additional Common Stock either in the open market or in private transactions, or dispose of or seek to dispose of all or a portion of such Common Stock now owned or hereafter acquired. In addition, the Reporting Person may, directly or through one or more affiliates,


from time to time or at any time, (i) engage in discussions with or make proposals to the Board of Directors (the Board) of the Issuer, other stockholders of the Issuer, and/or other third parties, or (ii) encourage, cause or seek to cause the Issuer or any of such persons: to consider or explore extraordinary corporate transactions involving the Issuer, including, among other things, a merger, reorganization, consolidation or other take-private transaction that could result in the de-listing or de-registration of the Common Stock; sales or acquisitions of assets or businesses; joint ventures; changes to the Issuers capitalization or dividend policy; or other material changes to the Issuers business or capital or governance structure. Any action or actions the Reporting Person may undertake with respect to his investment in the Issuer will be dependent upon the Reporting Persons review of numerous factors, including, among other things, the Issuers business, prospects, and/or financial condition, the market for the Common Stock, general economic conditions, regulatory matters, tax considerations, debt and/or stock market conditions, other opportunities available to the Reporting Person, and other factors and future developments.

Mr. Domino, in his capacity as President of the DTR Division, may be entitled to receive cash compensation and equity compensation, including stock option or other equity awards, pursuant to the Issuers 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan), filed as Exhibit 3 to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.
