In August 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the amended and restated certificate of incorporation which states the Company’s authority to issue 1,000,000,000 shares of Class A and 15,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. The total number of shares of Preferred Stock authorized to be issued is 100,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

Common Stock

Shares of Class A common stock have both economic and voting rights. Shares of Class B common stock have no economic rights, but do have voting rights. Each holder of shares of Class A common stock will be entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held at all meetings of shareholders and each holder of shares of Class B common stock will be entitled to nine votes for each share of common stock held at all meetings of shareholders.

Prior to the Closing Date of the merger, voting, dividend and liquidation rights of the holders of the common stock were subject to and qualified by the rights, powers, and preferences of the holders of the preferred stock. The holders of the common stock were entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held at all meetings of shareholders. Dividends were issued to common stockholders only after holders of the preferred stock receive funds legally available in the amount equal to 8% of the original issuance price per annum on each outstanding share of preferred stock. In the event of liquidation, dissolution, distribution of assets or winding-up of the Company, the holders of common stock would receive payment on a pro rata basis on the number of shares held by each such holder, after the rights of the holders of the preferred stock have been satisfied.

Dividends

Holders of preferred stock, in preference to the holders of common stock, shall be entitled to receive, but only out of funds legally available thereof, cash dividends at a rate of 8% of the original issue price per annum on each outstanding share of preferred stock. Such dividends shall be payable only when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors and shall be noncumulative. As long as shares of preferred stock are outstanding, the Company is precluded

from declaring, paying or setting aside any dividends, or making any other distribution on the common stock, or purchasing, redeeming or otherwise acquiring for value any shares of common stock, unless all dividends on the preferred stock then have been paid or declared and set apart and the holders of the preferred stock then outstanding shall first receive, or simultaneously receive, a dividend on each outstanding share of preferred stock in an amount at least equal to the dividend payable on each share. No dividends have been declared or paid out as of the Closing Date.

Voting Rights

Each holder of outstanding shares of preferred stock shall be entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of each share of common stock into which the shares of preferred stock held by each holder are convertible as of the record date for determining shareholders entitled to vote on such matter. Holders of preferred stock shall vote together with the holders of common stock as a single class.

Liquidation

In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, the holders of preferred stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of the proceeds of such liquidation to the holders of common stock, an amount per share equal to the sum of the applicable original issue price for the preferred stock, plus declared but unpaid dividends on such share. Upon completion of the distribution to the preferred stockholders, all of the remaining proceeds available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of common stock pro rata based on the number of shares of common stock held by each holder. The Long-term debt and Convertible Notes are senior in order of preference to the Company’s preferred stock and then common stock in the event of a liquidation.

Conversion

Each share of preferred stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time after the date of issuance of such share, into shares of common stock as is determined by dividing the applicable original issue price for such share of preferred stock by the applicable conversion price for such share of preferred stock. The initial conversion price per share for each series of preferred stock shall be the original issue price applicable to such series.
