Immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, all series of convertible preferred stock of Legacy Forge were converted into shares of Class AA common stock of Legacy Forge on a one-for-one basis and then converted into the Company’s common stock at the Exchange Ratio. As of December 31, 2022, no shares of convertible preferred stock were outstanding. Common Stock Prior to the Merger, Legacy Forge had authorized four classes of common stock: Class AA common stock, Class AA-1 common stock, Class EE-1 common stock, and Class EE-2 common stock. Holders of such common stock were entitled to receive any dividends if and when such dividends are declared by the board of directors. Common stock was subordinated to the convertible preferred stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon certain deemed liquidation events. Common stock was not redeemable at the option of the holder or by Legacy Forge. As of December 31, 2021, Legacy Forge was authorized to issue up to 257,968,554 shares of its capital stock, of which 171,153,360 shares were designated as common stock. The holders of the Class EE-1 common stock and Class AA common stock were entitled to one vote for each share and the holders of Class EE-2 common stock were entitled to (a) with respect to votes of one or more classes of common stock only, twenty votes for each share of Class EE-2 common stock and (b) with respect to Class EE-2 common stock voting together with any shares of preferred stock, one vote for each share of Class EE-2 common stock. Holders of common stock, voting together as a separate class, were entitled to appoint four members of the board of directors, who were deemed common directors. As of December 31, 2021, two members of the board of directors were elected by holders of common stock. Each share of Class AA common stock was convertible to one share of Class EE-1 common stock, up to a cumulative maximum of 1,873,758 shares of Class AA common stock, and each share of Class EE-1 common stock was convertible to one share of preferred stock upon authorization by the board of directors. In addition, each share of Class EE-1 or Class EE-2 was convertible, upon a disposition, to one share of Class AA common stock at the election of the holder. In April 2021, Legacy Forge amended and restated its certificate of incorporation to, (i) increase the number of authorized shares of all classes of stock (including preferred stock) to 257,968,554 and (ii) reclassify each share of Class EE-1 common stock and Class EE-2 common stock to one share of Class AA common stock. Merger Transaction On the Closing Date and in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, each share of Legacy Forge Class AA common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, was canceled and converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of the merger consideration comprised of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, based on the Exchange Ratio. On March 21, 2022, in connection with the Merger, the Company amended and restated its certificate of incorporation to authorize 2,100,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of (i) 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share and (ii) 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The holders of common stock have exclusive voting power. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote per share. The Company’s board of directors has the authority to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to determine the preferences, privileges, and restrictions, including voting rights, of those shares.

Settlement of Nonrecourse Related-Party Promissory Notes In connection with the Merger, t he Company entered into a loan offset agreement with certain executives (the “Loan Offset Agreement”) as a result of outstanding promissory notes that were due from these executives as of the Closing Date. As a result of the Loan Offset Agreement, the Company agreed to offset the after-tax value of the transaction bonus that the executives received in connection with the Merger (see Note 3) against the entire outstanding balance of the nonrecourse promissory notes, including any unpaid interest, as of one day immediately prior to the closing of the Merger.
