On March 30, 2022, in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, SPAC merged with and into Cayman Merger Sub (the “SPAC Merger”), with Cayman Merger Sub surviving the SPAC Merger (Cayman Merger Sub, in its capacity as the surviving company of the SPAC Merger, is sometimes referred to herein as, and from and after the SPAC Merger shall mean, the “SPAC Surviving Company”) and became the sole owner of all of the issued and outstanding shares of $1.00 par value per share of BVI Merger Sub (each, a “BVI Merger Sub Common Share”) and concurrently with the consummation of the SPAC Merger, Holdings redeemed each Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001, of Holdings (each, a “Holdings Common Share A”) and each Class B ordinary share, par value $0.0001, of Holdings (each, a “Holdings Common Share B”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the SPAC Merger for par value (the “Holdings Redemption”).

On March 31, 2022, following the SPAC Merger, the SPAC Surviving Company distributed all of the issued and outstanding BVI Merger Sub Common Shares to Holdings (the “BVI Merger Sub Distribution”) and following the BVI Merger Sub Distribution BVI Merger Sub merged with and into Swvl (the “Company Merger,” and together with the SPAC Merger, the “Mergers”), with Swvl surviving the Company Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings (Swvl, in its capacity as the surviving company of the Company Merger, is sometimes referred to herein as, and from and after the Company Merger shall mean, the “Swvl Surviving Company”), thereby completing the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Proposed Transactions”).
