The Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were approved by the boards of directors of each of Dragoneer and CCC.

The Business Combination Agreement provides for, among other things, the following transactions on the closing date: (i) Dragoneer will become a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”) and, in connection with the Domestication, (A) Dragoneer’s name will be changed as determined by CCC in its sole discretion, (B) each outstanding Class A ordinary share of Dragoneer and each outstanding Class B ordinary share of Dragoneer will become one share of common stock of Dragoneer (the “Dragoneer Common Stock”), and (C) each outstanding warrant of Dragoneer will become one warrant to purchase one share of Dragoneer Common Stock; and (ii) following the Domestication, Chariot Merger Sub will merge with and into CCC, with CCC as the surviving company in the merger and, after giving effect to such merger, continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of Dragoneer (the “Merger”).
The Domestication, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the “Business Combination”.
The Business Combination is expected to close in the second quarter of 2021, following the receipt of the required approval by Dragoneer’s shareholders and the fulfillment of other customary closing conditions.
