On March 31, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and the amendment to the Purchase Agreements, dated as of March 31, 2023 (the “Amendment Agreement”), FAR purchased from Bloom Retirement Holdings Inc. a substantial majority of Bloom Retirement Holdings Inc.’s assets and certain of Bloom Retirement Holdings Inc.’s liabilities (the “Transaction”), including, among other things, certain residential reverse mortgage loans and the right to service certain mortgage loans originated pursuant to the Federal Housing Administration’s Home Equity Conversion Mortgage program (“Servicing Rights”), in exchange for, among other things, (i) $5.5 million in cash, (ii) a promissory note with an aggregate principal amount of $4.5 million, (iii) one share of the Issuer’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Common Stock”), and (iv) 33,893,666 limited liability company units of FOAEC (the “FOAEC Units”).

General

The Reporting Persons acquired the securities described in this Schedule 13D for investment purposes and they intend to review their investments in the Issuer on a continuing basis.
