Certain Related Agreements
A&R Forward Purchase Agreement
On May 9, 2022, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Tiga entered into the Amended and Restated Forward Purchase Agreement (the “A&R Forward Purchase Agreement”) with Tiga Sponsor LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Sponsor”)
which provides for the purchase by the Forward Purchase Investors (as defined below) of an aggregate of 5,000,000 forward purchase shares, plus an
aggregate of 2,500,000 forward purchase warrants to purchase one share of New Grindr Common Stock at $11.50 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $50,000,000, or $10.00 per share, in a private placement to close prior to or concurrently
with the Closing. To the extent that the sum of (i) the Trust Amount (as defined in the Merger Agreement), plus (ii) the amount actually received by Tiga prior to or substantially concurrently with the Closing from any PIPE Investment (the “Non-FPS
Amount”) is less than $50,000,000 immediately prior to the Closing but following the Domestication, the Forward Purchase Investors have agreed pursuant to the A&R Forward Purchase Agreement to purchase (a) a number of shares of backstop
shares equal to (A) (x) $50,000,000 minus (y) the Non-FPS Amount, divided by (B) $10.00, rounded down to the nearest whole number and (b) a number of backstop warrants equal to (I) the number of backstop shares in clause (a) multiplied by (II)
0.5, rounded down to the nearest whole number. In addition to the foregoing, each Forward Purchase Investor may, at its discretion (regardless of the Non-FPS Amount), subscribe for up to 5,000,000 backstop shares plus up to 2,500,000 backstop
warrants at $11.50 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $50,000,000, or $10.00 for each backstop share and one-half of one backstop warrant.
The forward purchase warrants and the
backstop warrants will have the same terms as the public warrants issued as part of the units. Pursuant to the A&R Forward Purchase Agreement, the Sponsor may assign its rights, interests or obligations thereunder to any of its affiliates
(collectively, the “Forward Purchase Investors”). The A&R Forward Purchase Agreement amends and restates the forward purchase agreement that was entered into by Tiga and the Sponsor in connection with Tiga’s initial public
offering.
Transaction Support Agreement
On May 9, 2022, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Grindr, Tiga, Merger Sub, the Sponsor and the directors of Tiga
entered into the Transaction Support Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Support Agreement, the Sponsor and the directors of Tiga agreed to, among other things: (i) vote or cause its shares to vote in favor of the Business
Combination Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and the other proposals included in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, (ii) subject to certain exceptions, not transfer, sell, pledge, encumber, assign, grant an option with
respect to, hedge, swap, convert or otherwise dispose of the equity securities held by the Sponsor and the directors of Tiga until the earlier of the Closing or the valid termination of the Merger Agreement, (iii) not, directly or indirectly,
solicit, initiate, continue or engage in alternative business combination proposals and (iv) waive applicable anti-dilution protections in Tiga’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association with respect to the conversion of the Tiga
Class B Ordinary Shares held by Sponsor and the directors of Tiga upon consummation of the Business Combination.
Unitholder Support Agreement
In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Tiga entered into a support agreement (the “Unitholder Support Agreement”) with Grindr
and certain unitholders of Grindr (the “Requisite Unitholders”). Pursuant to the Unitholder Support Agreement, the Requisite Unitholders agreed to, among other things, vote to adopt and approve the Merger Agreement, the Merger and any
other matters necessary or reasonably requested by Tiga for the consummation of the Merger, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Unitholder Support Agreement. The Requisite Unitholders also agreed, among other things, to
refrain from (i) selling, assigning, transferring (including by operation of law) or otherwise encumber any of their covered units prior to the termination of the Unitholder Support Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions therein, and (ii)
joining any class actions with respect to any claim against Tiga, Merger Sub or Grindr. The Unitholder Support Agreement will terminate in its entirety, and be of no further force and effect, upon the valid termination of the Merger Agreement.
A&R Registration Rights Agreement
The Merger Agreement contemplates that, at the Closing, New Grindr, the Sponsor, the independent directors of Tiga and certain
securityholders of Grindr will enter into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the “A&R Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to
which New Grindr will agree to register for resale, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), certain shares
of New Grindr Common Stock and other equity securities of New Grindr that are held by the parties thereto from time to time. The A&R Registration Rights Agreement amends and restates the registration rights agreement that was entered into by
Tiga, the Sponsor and other holders of Tiga’s securities party thereto in connection with Tiga’s initial public offering.
The foregoing descriptions of the Merger Agreement, the A&R Forward Purchase Agreement, the Transaction Support Agreement, the
A&R Registration Rights Agreement and the transactions and documents contemplated thereby, are not complete and are subject to and qualified in their entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, the A&R Forward Purchase Agreement, the

the registration statement on Form S-4 discussed above and other documents filed by Tiga from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to
