At the Avalon Merger Effective Time (as defined in the proxy statement/prospectus forming a part of this registration statement), (i) each share of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Avalon Class A common stock”), of Avalon Acquisition Inc. (“Avalon”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Avalon Merger Effective Time will be automatically converted into one unit (each a “Merger Unit,” and collectively, the “Merger Units”), with each such Merger Unit consisting of one share of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Beneficient Class A common stock”), of Beneficient (the “Company” or “Beneficient”) and one share of Beneficient Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Beneficient Series A preferred stock”), (ii) each share of Class B common stock par value $0.0001 per share, of Avalon (the “Avalon Class B common stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Avalon Merger Effective Time will be automatically converted into one share of Beneficient Class A common stock, (iii) each warrant of Avalon entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Avalon Class A common stock per warrant at a price of $11.50 per share (“Avalon Warrants”) will automatically convert into the right to purchase, at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (the “Beneficient Warrants”), one unit (each a “Warrant Unit,” and collectively, the “Warrant Units”), with each such Warrant Unit consisting of one share of Beneficient Class A common stock and one share of Beneficient Series A preferred stock. Each share of Beneficient Series A preferred stock that is then issued and outstanding is convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, into one-fourth (1/4) of a share of Beneficient Class A common stock on, and only on, the later of (i) 90 days after the Avalon Merger Effective Time and (ii) 30 days after a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), has been declared effective with respect to the issuance of Beneficient Class A common stock and Beneficient Series A preferred stock upon the exercise of the Beneficient Warrants. Accordingly, the number of securities being registered is based upon an estimate of (a) the maximum number of shares of Avalon Class A common stock that will be outstanding immediately prior to the Avalon Merger Effective Time and exchanged for an equal number of Merger Units; (b) the maximum number of shares of Avalon Class B common stock that will be outstanding immediately prior to the Avalon Merger and exchanged for an equal number of shares of Beneficient Class A common stock; and (c) the maximum number of shares of Avalon Class A common stock underlying each Avalon Warrant, which will be assumed by Beneficient and will become the Beneficient Warrants.
