WHEREAS, each whole Warrant entitles its holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of the Company, for a purchase price of $11.50, subject to certain adjustments;
WHEREAS, the Company is initiating an exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as may be amended and supplemented, the “Registration Statement”), to offer all Warrant Holders the opportunity to exchange their Warrants for shares of Class A Common Stock, based on an exchange ratio of 0.275 shares of Class A Common Stock per Warrant and subject to other terms and conditions to be disclosed in the Registration Statement;
WHEREAS, concurrent with the Exchange Offer and as part of the Registration Statement, the Company is initiating a consent solicitation (the “Solicitation”) to solicit the consent of the holders of the Warrants to amend, effective upon the completion of the Exchange Offer, the terms of the Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”), dated October 1, 2020, by and between APSG and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, which governs all of the Warrants, to permit the Company to require that each Warrant that is outstanding upon the closing of the Exchange Offer be converted into 0.2475 shares of Class A Common Stock, which is a ratio of 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Exchange Offer, as more fully described in the Registration Statement; and
