On June 2, 2022, 10,891 RSUs were granted to each of Mr. Carey and Mr. Matthews under the Issuer’s 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which will vest on the earlier of the Issuer’s 2023 annual meeting or June 2, 2023, subject to each individual’s continued service on the Issuer’s board of directors. Each RSU represents the contingent right to receive, upon vesting, one share of Common Stock.

 

Item 4

Purpose of Transaction

The Reporting Persons who hold Common Stock directly acquired those shares as an investment in the regular course of their businesses. The Reporting Persons have communicated, and may continue to communicate, with management, the Issuer’s board of directors, other stockholders of the Issuer and other relevant parties concerning the business, operations, board composition, management, strategy and future plans of the Issuer and the matters set forth in this Item 4.

The Reporting Persons may also take steps to explore and prepare for various plans and actions, and hire advisors or consultants and consider potential proposals, before forming a plan or intention to engage in any such plan or action.


The Reporting Persons expect to evaluate on an ongoing basis the Issuer’s financial condition and prospects and its interest in, and intentions with respect to, a variety of transactions that could create shareholder value, including business combinations, acquisitions and refinancing opportunities.

Under the Stockholders Agreement, Stone Point has the right to designate for election to the Board of Directors (i) two of the nominees for election to the Board of Directors for so long as such investment funds and their affiliates beneficially own more than 20% of the Common Stock then outstanding; and (ii) one nominee for election to the Board of Directors for so long as such investment funds and their affiliates beneficially own less than or equal to 20% but at least 10% of the Common Stock then outstanding. GA and Stone Point have agreed to vote for the other’s nominees to the Board of Directors. Stone Point may also assign its designation rights under the Stockholders Agreement to an affiliate.

Additionally, until the earlier of such time as (i) Stone Point ceases to hold at least 75% of the Common Stock held by Stone Point as of the Issuer’s initial public offering or (ii) GA ceases to hold at least 25% of the Common Stock then outstanding, the prior written consent of Stone Point will be required prior to taking the following actions: (a) any acquisition or disposition in which aggregate consideration is greater than $250,000,000 in any single transaction or series or related transactions; (b) any reorganization, recapitalization, voluntary bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution or winding-up (other than a sale of the Issuer, however structured); (c) any repurchase or redemption of capital stock of the Issuer from GA or any of its affiliates (other than (i) on a pro rata basis or (ii) pursuant to an open market plan approved by the Board); or (d) the entry into, or amendment of, any agreement or arrangement with GA or any of its affiliates (excluding ordinary course, arm’s length commercial transactions).


As long as the investment funds managed by Stone Point beneficially own any shares of Common Stock, the prior written consent of such funds will be required prior to any amendment to the governing documents of the Issuer if such change is disproportionately adverse to the rights of Stone Point as compared to GA (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the advance waiver of corporate opportunities).

The foregoing description of the Stockholders Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Stockholders Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit and incorporated herein by reference.
