NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Litigation Relating to the Merger
On May 27 and May 28, 2025, Shyft was notified of two complaints filed with the Supreme Court of the State of New York County of New York by purported shareholders. The complaints allege that the Proxy Statement was materially incomplete due to certain misrepresentations and omissions, violating New York State law. The complaints name Shyft and its directors as defendants and seek, among other relief, an injunction against the consummation of the Merger.
The company believes that the likelihood of a materially unfavorable outcome is currently not probable, and any potential loss cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Therefore, no liability has been recognized in the financial statements. However, the Company will continue to monitor the situation and may reassess this evaluation as further developments occur.
Shyft Executive Retention: Employment Matters
In connection with the Merger Agreement and the Transactions, Shyft’s Board and the Human Resources and Compensation Committee (the “HRCC”) reviewed, among other things, executive retention matters. Retention compensation arrangements were approved for key executives Joshua Sherbin and Jacob Farmer to facilitate the Merger's closing.
In May 2025, Mr. Sherbin indicated his intention to resign for Good Reason under the Company’s Executive Severance Plan if the Merger is consummated. Subsequently, on May 19, 2025, Shyft and Mr. Sherbin entered into a transition and separation agreement.
