Financing fund
Financing fund is the investment to be made by Meritz Securities Co., Ltd. (“Meritz”) in the Company. On October 16, 2022, FFG and LGHL entered into the Meritz
p
rivate
p
lacement
s
ubscription
a
greement with Meritz, a Korean incorporated investment fund, pursuant to which, among other things, Meritz agreed to subscribe for, and FFG agreed to issue to Meritz
18,569,282
 ordinary shares of FFG (“FFG Private Placement Subscription Shares”) at a subscription price equal to
USD
49,999,999
 and the FFG preferred collateral share
with par value Euro0.0001 per share (“FFG Collateral Share”)
 
at a subscription price equal to
USD
1
 
(collectively “
Meritz Investment”), and FFG and LGHL granted certain rights to Meritz in connection therewith, which are governed by the relationship agreement. Under these agreements, FFG Collateral Share
which
 
was automatically converted into LGHL convertible preference share and the FFG Private Placement Subscription Shares were automatically exchanged into LGHL ordinary shares upon the consummation of the Reverse Recapitalization. 
Half of the Meritz Investment in the amount of
USD
25 million was funded on October 20, 2022, with the remaining
USD
25 million being withheld by Meritz and to be released when Meritz may sell all of the ordinary shares it holds pursuant to an effective resale registration statement or Rule 144
under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”)
 
and no event of default has occurred. If the conditions are not fulfilled, Meritz will surrender half of the ordinary shares converted from FFG Private Placement Subscription Shares to LGHL at nil consideration. Furthermore, Meritz is entitled to a cash dividend payable by LGHL in the amount of
USD
2.0 million per annum for three years. Meritz has a right to put, upon the occurrence of certain credit
events, the lapse of certain LGHL’s call option or the third
anniversary of Meritz’s investment, all of the ordinary shares (including those exchanged from the FFG Private Placement Subscription Shares) then held by it to LGHL at an agreed return, which is the higher of (i) 11.5% internal rate, compounded annually, of return on Meritz’s investment in FFG Private Placement Subscription Shares and (ii) 1.115 times the sum of
USD
50 million, in each case minus any interim return that Meritz has realized from its investment. Following the date when Meritz may sell all of the ordinary shares it holds pursuant to an effective resale registration statement, or under Rule 144, if LGHL fail to fulfill its obligations with respect Meritz’s put right, among other things, Meritz may convert the convertible preference shares into an aggregate number of up to 15,000,000
non-voting
ordinary shares and/or ordinary shares (subject to any adjustment as a result of any share subdivision or consolidation of the shares of us), with the actual number to be calculated based on factors including average closing share price of us. Meritz is entitled to indemnity in connection with its investment. Meritz’s rights described above are secured by shares of Fosun Tourism Group (“FTG”), and if the market value of FTG’s shares declines below a certain level, LGHL may be required to provide cash security.
Meritz Investment may require the Company to deliver cash or another financial asset, or otherwise to settle it in such a way that it would be a financial liability, in the event of the occurrence or non-occurrence of uncertain future events that are beyond the control of the Company. The Company does not have the unconditional right to avoid delivering cash or another financial asset. Therefore, Meritz Investment is recognized as a financial liability, and relevant shares issued by FFG were regarded as treasury shares which were converted into 4,999 thousand LGHL treasury shares on Closing Date.

Recapitalization
, (iii) may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis, and (iv) are entitled to registration rights.
