("Corrib"), then a holder of 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and certain investment entities managed by Luxor Capital Group, LP ("Luxor"), that together then held 9,000 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock. In conjunction with the conversions, the Company agreed to provide the following two forms of additional consideration for as long as the Preferred Stock remained entitled to receive dividend payments (the "Additional Share Consideration"): • The Company agreed that in the event that Corrib and Luxor would have been entitled to any Participating Dividends payable, had they not converted the Preferred Stock (as defined in the respective Series A and Series A-1 Certificate of Designation), after the date of their Preferred Share conversion, then the Company will issue to Corrib and Luxor, on the date such Participating Dividends become payable by the Company, in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act the number of shares of common stock equal to (a) the value of the Participating Dividends Corrib or Luxor would have received pursuant to Sections (2)(c) and (2)(d) of the respective Series A and Series A-1 Certificates of Designation, divided by (b) the Thirty two • The Company agreed that it will issue to Corrib and Luxor, on each quarterly anniversary commencing May 29, 2017 (or, if later, the date on which the corresponding dividend payment is made to the holders of the outstanding Preferred Stock), through and until the Maturity Date (as defined in the respective Series A and Series A-1 Certificates of Designation), in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act the number of shares of common stock equal to (a) 1.875% the Accrued Value (as defined in the respective Series A and Series A-1 Certificates of Designation) of Corrib’s or Luxor’s Preferred Stock as of the Closing Date (as defined in applicable Voluntary Conversion Agreements) divided by (b) the Thirty two For the year ended December 31, 2021, 119,784 and 13,477 shares of the Company's common stock were issued to Luxor and Corrib, respectively, in conjunction with the conversion agreements. The fair value of the Additional Share Consideration for the year ended December 31, 2021 was valued by the Company at $0.3 million and was recorded within Preferred stock and deemed dividends from conversion line item of the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a deemed dividend. On May 29, 2021, pursuant to the terms of the Additional Share Consideration, the final Participating Dividend payments were made to Luxor and Corrib. Redemption and Conversion of Series A and A-2 Shares On May 29, 2021, pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, holders of the Series A and A-2 Preferred Stock caused the Company to redeem the Series A and A-2 Preferred Stock at the accrued value per share plus accrued but unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of Series A and A-2 Preferred Stock), of which $10.4 million was paid in cash to holders of the Series A and A-2 Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A and A-2 Preferred Stock that was not so redeemed was automatically converted into shares of common stock at the conversion price then in effect, of which 50,410 shares of the Company's common stock were issued in lieu of cash to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, CGI, formerly a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a letter agreement with the Company to not redeem at maturity or seek redemption of 6,125 shares of the Company's Series A and 10,000 shares of the Company's Series A-2 Preferred Stock. Series A-3 and A-4 Share Issuance and Conversion On July 1, 2021 (the "Exchange Date") as a part of the sale of CIG, INNOVATE entered into an exchange agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with the now deconsolidated CGIC, who held the remaining shares of the Series A and Series A-2 Preferred Stock and was eliminated in consolidation prior to the sale of the Insurance segment on July 1, 2021. Per the Exchange Agreement, INNOVATE exchanged 6,125 shares of the Series A and 10,000 shares of the Series A-2 shares that CGIC held for an equivalent number of Series A-3 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock ("Series A-3") and Series A-4 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock ("Series A-4"), respectively. The terms remained substantially the same, except that the Series A-3 and Series A-4 will mature on July 1, 2026. A cash payment of $0.3 million was made as a part of the exchange for accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series A and Series A-2 being exchanged. Upon issuance of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock on July 1, 2021, the Series A-3 and Series A-4 have been classified as temporary equity in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet with a combined redemption value of $16.1 million with a current fair value as of December 31, 2022 of $17.6 million. Dividends. The Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock accrue a cumulative quarterly cash dividend at an annualized rate of 7.50%. The accrued values of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock accrete quarterly at an annualized rate of 4.00% that is reduced to 2.00% or 0.0% if the Company achieves specified rates of growth measured by increases in its net asset value; provided, that the accreting dividend rate will be 7.25% in the event that (A) the daily volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of the Company's common stock is less than a certain threshold amount, (B) the Company's common stock is not registered under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (C) the Company's common stock is not listed on certain national securities exchanges or the Company is delinquent in the payment of any cash dividends. The Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock is also entitled to participate in cash and in-kind distributions to holders of shares of Company's common stock on an as-converted basis. Subsequent Measurement. The Company has elected to account for the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock by immediately recognizing changes in the redemption value as they occur. The carrying value of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock will be adjusted to equal what the redemption amount would be as if the redemption were to occur at the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock. Any cash dividends paid will directly reduce the carrying value of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock until the carrying value equals the redemption value. The Company has a history of paying dividends on its preferred stock and expects to continue to pay such dividends each quarter. Optional Conversion. Each share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 may be converted by the holder into shares of the Company's common stock at any time based on the then-applicable Conversion Price. Each share of Series A-3 is initially convertible at a conversion price of $4.25 (as it may be adjusted from time to time, the "Series A-3 Conversion Price"), and each share of Series A-4 is initially convertible at a conversion price of $8.25 (as it may be adjusted from time to time, the "Series A-4 Conversion Price") (“collectively the “Conversion Prices”). The Conversion Prices are subject to adjustment for dividends, certain distributions, stock splits, combinations, reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers, recapitalizations and similar events, as well as in connection with issuances of equity or equity-linked or other comparable securities by the Company at a price per share (or with a conversion or exercise price or effective issue price) that is below the Conversion Prices’ (which adjustment shall be made on a weighted average basis). Actual conversion prices at the time of the exchange were $3.52 for the Series A and $5.33 for the Series A-2. Redemption by the Holder / Automatic Conversion. On July 1, 2026, holders of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 shall be entitled to cause the Company to redeem the Series A-3 and Series A-4 at the accrued value per share plus accrued but unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of Series A-3 and Series A-4). Each share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 that is not so redeemed will be automatically converted into shares of the Company's common stock at the Conversion Price then in effect. Upon a change of control (as defined in each Certificate of Designation) holders of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 shall be entitled to cause the Company to redeem their shares of Series A-3 and Series A-4 at a price per share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 equal to the greater of (i) the accrued value of the Series A-3 and Series A-4, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock), and (ii) the value that would be received if the share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 were converted into shares of the Company's common stock immediately prior to the change of control. Redemption by the Company / "Company Call Option". At any time after the third anniversary of the Original Issue Date, May 29, 2014, the Company may redeem the Series A-3/Series A-4, in whole but not in part, at a price per share generally equal to 150% of the accrued value per share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of the Series A-3/Series A-4), subject to the holder's right to convert prior to such redemption.

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (any such event, a “Liquidation Event”), the holders of Series A-3 and Series A-4 will be entitled to receive per share the greater of (i) the accrued value of the Series A-3 and Series A-4, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of Series A-3 and Series A-4), and (ii) the value that would be received if the share of Series A-4 and Series A-4 were converted into shares of the Company's common stock immediately prior to such occurrence. The Series A-3 and Series A-4 will rank junior to any existing or future indebtedness but senior to the Company's common stock and any future equity securities other than any future senior or pari passu preferred stock issued in compliance with each Certificate of Designation.

As of December 31, 2022, Series A-3 Preferred Stock and Series A-4 Preferred Stock were convertible into 1,740,700 and 1,875,533 shares, respectively, of INNOVATE's common stock. Preferred Share Dividends During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, INNOVATE's Board of Directors (the "Board") declared cash dividends with respect to INNOVATE’s issued and outstanding Preferred Stock, excluding the Series A and Series A-2 Preferred Stock which was owned by CGIC and was eliminated in consolidation prior to the sale of the Insurance segment on July 1, 2021, as presented in the following table (in millions): 2022 Declaration Date March 31, 2022 June 30, 2022 September 30, 2022 December 31, 2022 Holders of Record Date March 31, 2022 June 30, 2022 September 30, 2022 December 31, 2022 Payment Date April 15, 2022 July 15, 2022 October 15, 2022 January 15, 2023 Total Dividend $ 0.3 $ 0.3 $ 0.3 $ 0.3 2021 Declaration Date March 31, 2021 May 29, 2021 September 30, 2021 December 31, 2021 Holders of Record Date March 31, 2021 May 29, 2021 September 30, 2021 December 31, 2021 Payment Date April 15, 2021 June 4, 2021 October 15, 2021 January 15, 2022 Total Dividend $ 0.2 $ 0.1 $ 0.3 $ 0.3 DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock Issuance On November 30, 2018, CGIC purchased 40,000 shares of DBMGi's Series A Preferred Stock, which was eliminated in consolidation. On July 1, 2021, as a part of the sale of CIG which resulted in the deconsolidation of the entity, INNOVATE was deemed to have issued $40.9 million of DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock to the now deconsolidated CGIC. Upon issuance of the DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock on July 1, 2021, the DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock has been classified as temporary equity in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of December 31, 2022, there are 41,820.25 shares of DBMGi's Series A Preferred Stock outstanding and 500,000 shares with a par value of $0.001 each are authorized for issuance. Redemption Option . The DBMGi Preferred Stock is redeemable at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, or at any time or by the holder prior to July 2026. Dividends. The DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock will accrue a cumulative quarterly cash or payment in kind dividend at a rate of (a) for the first five years following the date of issuance, (i) 9.00% per annum if dividends are paid in kind or (ii) 8.25% per annum if dividends are paid in cash and (b) starting on the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance, a rate per annum equal to (i) LIBOR (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) plus a spread of 5.85% (together, the “LIBOR Rate”) per annum, plus 0.75% if dividends are paid in kind or (ii) the LIBOR Rate per annum in the case of dividends paid in cash. Subsequent to the transition away from LIBOR beginning in 2023, the Certificate of Designation allows for a LIBOR Successor Rate, which allows the Company to reasonably determine an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmarks (if any) incorporated therein) giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks. Subsequent Measurement. The DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock is measured each reporting period at its maximum redemption value, which is equal to the stated value plus all accrued, accumulated and unpaid dividends as of the end of each reporting period as they are currently redeemable. The Company pays accrued dividends quarterly in cash (with an option to PIK), and the Company does not expect to make any subsequent measurement adjustments recorded to the initial carrying amount. As such no accretion will be recognized until future dividend payments would otherwise reduce the carrying value below its redemption value. In such a case, the Company will adjust the carrying value to its maximum redemption amount. During the years ending December 31, 2022 and 2021, DBMGi's Board of Directors declared dividends with respect to DBMGi’s issued and outstanding Preferred Stock, as presented in the following tables (in millions): 2022 Declaration Date March 31, 2022 June 30, 2022 September 30, 2022 December 31, 2022 Holders of Record Date March 31, 2022 June 30, 2022 September 30, 2022 December 31, 2022 Payment Date April 15, 2022 July 15, 2022 October 15, 2022 January 15, 2023 Total Dividend* $ 0.9 $ 0.9 $ 0.9 $ 0.9 *The dividends paid on April 15, 2022, October 15, 2022 and January 15, 2023 were paid in cash.

Stockholders’ Rights Agreement - Tax Benefits Preservation Plan On August 30, 2021, the Company entered into a Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (the “Preservation Plan”) between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent. The Preservation Plan is designed to protect the Company’s ability to use its tax net operating losses and certain other tax assets (“Tax Benefits”) by deterring an “ownership change” as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (the “Code”). If any person or group acquires 4.9% or more of the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock (subject to certain exceptions), there would be a triggering event under the Preservation Plan which could result in significant dilution in the ownership interest of such person or group. As such, the Preservation Plan has anti-takeover effects. In connection with the adoption of the Preservation Plan, the Company disclosed that given the change-over in the Company’s stock over the past several years, the Company was approaching the risk of losing its Tax Benefits. Pursuant to Preservation Plan, the Board of the Company declared a dividend distribution of one right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of our common stock to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 9, 2021 (the “Record Date”). Each Right is governed by the terms of the Plan and entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company a unit consisting of one one-thousandth of a share (a “Unit”) of Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), at a purchase price of $20.00 per Unit, subject to adjustment (the “Purchase Price”). The Plan is intended to help protect the Company’s ability to use its tax net operating losses and certain other tax assets (“Tax Benefits”) by deterring an “ownership change” as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (the “Code”) . Initially, the Rights will be attached to all common stock certificates representing shares of our common stock then outstanding, and no separate rights certificates (“Rights Certificates”) will be distributed. Subject to certain exceptions specified in the Plan, the Rights will separate from our shares of common stock then outstanding and a distribution date (the “Distribution Date”) will occur upon the earlier of (i) 10 business days following a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (an “Acquiring Person”) has become the beneficial owner of 4.9% or more of our common stock and (ii) 10 business days (or such later date as the Board shall determine) following the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person or group becoming an Acquiring Person. |
