Brooklyn ImmunoTherapeutics Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Brooklyn” or the “Company”), together with its subsidiaries including Brooklyn ImmunoTherapeutics LLC (“Brooklyn LLC”), Novellus, Inc. (“Novellus”) and Novellus Therapeutics, Ltd. (“Novellus, Ltd.”), is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on exploring the role that cytokine, gene editing and cell therapy can have in treating patients with cancer, blood disorders and monogenic diseases. As used herein, the “Company” refers collectively to Brooklyn and its subsidiaries. On August 12, 2020, Brooklyn (then known as “NTN Buzztime, Inc.”), Brooklyn LLC and BIT Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Brooklyn (the “Merger Sub”), entered into an agreement and plan of merger and reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other matters, Merger Sub merged with and into Brooklyn LLC, with Brooklyn LLC continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of Brooklyn and as the surviving company of the merger (the “Merger”). The Merger closed on March 25, 2021. After the Merger, Brooklyn changed its name from “NTN Buzztime, Inc.” to “Brooklyn ImmunoTherapeutics, Inc.” The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition, in which Brooklyn LLC was deemed the acquiring company for accounting purposes. On March 26, 2021, Brooklyn sold (the “Disposition”) its rights, title and interest in and to the assets relating to the business operated under the name “NTN Buzztime, Inc.” prior to the Merger to eGames.com Holdings LLC (“eGames.com”) in accordance with the terms of an asset purchase agreement dated September 18, 2020, as amended, between Brooklyn and eGames.com (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”). (See Note 4.) On July 16, 2021, Brooklyn and its newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary Brooklyn Acquisition Sub, Inc. entered into an agreement and plan of acquisition (the “Acquisition Agreement”) with (a) Novellus LLC, (b) Novellus (the sole equity holder of Novellus, Ltd. and, prior to the closing under the Acquisition Agreement, a wholly owned subsidiary of Novellus, LLC), and (c) a seller representative (the “Acquisition”), pursuant to which Brooklyn acquired Novellus and its subsidiary, Novellus, Ltd. As part of the Acquisition, Brooklyn also acquired 25.0% of the total outstanding equity interests of NoveCite, Inc. (“NoveCite”), a corporation focused on developing an allogeneic mesenchymal stem cell product for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome, including from COVID-19. (See Note 4.)
