On March 21, 2024, certain Monarch Funds (the “Holders”) and the Issuer entered into a purchase and assignment agreement (the “Debt Purchase Agreement”) providing for the purchase and retirement by the Issuer of (i) up to $112,113,388 in aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s 8.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”) issued pursuant to that certain Indenture, dated as of February 6, 2023, by and among the Issuer, the guarantors named therein, Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee, and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as collateral agent, and (ii) up to $10,344,887 in aggregate principal amount of loans (the “Loans”) outstanding under the Issuer’s Term Loan Credit Agreement, dated as of February 6, 2023, by and among the Issuer, as borrower, the guarantors and the lenders party thereto and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, in each case, held by the Holders and beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons (such Loans and Notes subject to the terms of the Debt Purchase Agreement, the “Specified Debt Instruments”). The Debt Purchase Agreement provides for the purchase by the Issuer of Specified Debt Instruments in multiple tranches (with the purchase of certain of the Specified Debt Instruments subject to the election of the Issuer in its sole discretion) between the date of the Debt Purchase Agreement and September 30, 2024 (subject to extension as may be agreed by the Holders, the “Final Repurchase Date”).

The foregoing description of the Debt Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Debt Purchase Agreement filed as Exhibit 7 hereto.

Except as set forth herein, the Reporting Persons have no other present plans or proposals that would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a)–(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors, including the Issuer’s financial position and strategic direction, actions taken by the Board of the Issuer, price levels of the Shares, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, purchasing additional Shares or debt instruments (including Notes and Loans or other debt instruments issued from time to time by the Issuer), other securities or derivative instruments related thereto or selling some or all of their Shares or debt instruments (including Notes and Loans or other debt instruments issued from time to time by the Issuer), or other securities or derivative instruments, engaging in hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Shares, and, alone or with others, pursuing discussions with the management, the Board of the Issuer, other holders of Shares of the Issuer, debt instruments or the Issuer and third parties with regard to their investment in the Issuer, and/or otherwise changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
