Supplemental Disclosure on Executive Employment Arrangements

The information set forth under the heading “Executive Employment Arrangements” beginning on page 258 of the Definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows. The remainder of these materials reference the "Rodriques Amendment" (as defined below). All descriptions thereof are qualified in their entirety by reference to the form of such agreement included herein as Annex A. As further noted below, the Rodriques Amendment will be filed upon its execution in connection with the closing of the Merger.

Effective September 9, 2021, each of the NEOs entered into an employment agreement with Forge (the “Initial Executive Agreements”). On February 25, 2022, Forge’s compensation committee approved a modification to the agreement with Mr. Rodriques, subject to the approval of the post-combination Board of Directors of the Company and to be documented at closing of the Merger (the “Rodriques Amendment”). The Initial Executive Agreements, as amended by the Rodriques Amendment in the case of the agreement with Mr. Rodriques, are referred to herein as the Executive Agreements. The Executive Agreements provide for each NEO’s at-will employment and set forth, among other things, the applicable NEO’s annual base salary and annual target cash bonus, each as described above. In addition, each NEO is eligible to participate in the benefit plans and programs of Forge, subject to the terms and conditions of such plans.

The Executive Agreements further provide that it is expected that the Company will establish an incentive pool equal to 3.5% of the outstanding shares of the Company immediately following the closing of the Business Combination (the “Incentive Pool”). The Initial Executive Agreements allocated the Incentive Pool as follows: 25% of the Incentive Pool will be paid in the form of cash bonuses (“Transaction Bonus Pool”) and 75% of the Incentive Pool will be paid in the form of restricted stock units (“Equity Bonus Pool”). The Rodriques Amendment will reallocate $2,657,933 (the “Cash Reallocation Amount”) of the Incentive Pool from the Equity Bonus Pool to the Transaction Bonus Pool for the payment of such Cash Reallocation Amount to Mr. Rodriques as part of his Transaction Bonus (as defined below) in order for the Company to make required tax withholding payments on Mr. Rodriques’ Transaction Bonus. Such Cash Reallocation Amount will be deducted from the Retention Equity Grant (as defined below) from the Equity Bonus Pool that would otherwise have been due to Mr. Rodriques under his Initial Executive Agreement on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

Each of the NEOs will be eligible to receive a one-time cash payment from the Transaction Bonus Pool with Messrs. Rodriques, Lee and Cobos eligible to receive no less than $7,645,432, $2,756,250 and $2,625,000, respectively (each, a “Transaction Bonus”). The amount payable to Mr. Rodriques as a Transaction Bonus will include the Cash Reallocation Amount. Each NEO will forfeit such bonuses in exchange for no consideration in the event such NEO’s employment is terminated for any reason prior to the payment of such bonus. That said, the NEO will be eligible to receive the unpaid portion of his cash bonus in the event his employment is terminated without “cause” ​(as defined in the respective Executive Agreement) prior to the closing of the Business Combination, subject to such NEO’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing, immediately prior to the Business Combination, an applicable portion of each NEO’s Transaction Bonus will be used to reduce an amount necessary to offset certain outstanding promissory notes between the NEO and Forge, as further described below in the section entitled “Interests of Forge’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger”. Each of NEOs will also be eligible to receive a grant of restricted stock units from the Equity Bonus Pool with Messrs. Rodriques, Lee and Cobos eligible to receive restricted stock units having values of at least $5,217,067, $3,937,500 and $3,937,500, respectively (each, a “Retention Equity Grant”). The Retention Equity Grant to be made to Mr. Rodriques will not include the Cash Reallocation Amount. Each NEO’s Retention Equity Grant will vest, subject to the NEO’s employment through the applicable vesting date, as follows: 33.33% of the Retention Equity Grant will vest upon the first anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination (the “First Tranche”); 33.33% of the Retention Equity Grant will vest upon the second anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination (the “Second Tranche”); and 33.33% of the Retention Equity Grant will vest upon the third anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination (the “Third Tranche”) (the “Time-Vesting Schedule”). With respect to the grants made to Messrs. Rodriques, Lee and Cobos, the Retention Equity Grant will become eligible to vest after the expiration of the six-month period following the closing of the Business Combination (the “Lock-Up Period”) as follows: (i) the First Tranche will immediately vest if the Company’s stock price meets or exceeds a price of $12.50 for 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period following the Lock-Up Period but prior to the vesting date of the First Tranche under the Time- Vesting Schedule, in which case the Second Tranche and Third Tranche will have their time-vesting component accelerated by six months; and (ii) the Second Tranche will immediately vest if the stock price meets or exceeds a closing price of $15.00 for 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period following the Lock-Up Period but prior to the vesting date of the Second Tranche under the Time-Vesting Schedule, in which case the Third Tranche will have its time-vesting component accelerated by an additional six months. The Retention Equity Grant will vest in accordance with such vesting provisions in the event the share price triggers are achieved through the date of a “Sale Event” of the Company (as defined in the 2022 Plan). Each NEO will forfeit such grant in exchange for no consideration in the event the Merger is not consummated or such NEO’s employment is terminated for any reason prior to the grant of such restricted stock units. That said, the NEO will be eligible to receive 20% of the Retention Equity Grant on a fully-vested basis in the event his employment is terminated without “cause” ​(as defined in the respective Executive Agreement) prior to the closing of the Business Combination, subject to such NEO’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims.

Each of the NEOs will also be eligible to receive severance payments and benefits in connection with a termination without “cause” or for “good reason”. In connection with such a termination, an NEO would be eligible to receive the following payments and benefits subject to his execution of a release and subject to not breaching any of his post-employment contractual obligations to Forge: (i) a lump sum payment equal to the sum of 12 months of the NEO’s then-current base salary, any then-unpaid bonus from a prior calendar year, and a pro rata target bonus for the year of termination at target level, (ii) company-paid COBRA premiums for the NEO and his eligible dependents for a period of 12 months following termination, and (iii) accelerated vesting with respect to the time-vesting requirements of 20% of any then unvested equity that had been granted prior to the date of termination (including, if applicable, the Retention Equity Grant). Each of the NEOs will also be eligible to receive enhanced severance payments and benefits if such a qualifying termination of employment occurs within six months prior to or 12 months following a Sale Event. In connection with such a termination, an NEO would be eligible to receive the following payments and benefits subject to his execution of a release and subject to not breaching any of his post-employment contractual obligations to Forge: (i) a lump sum payment equal to the sum of 18 months of the NEO’s then-current base salary, any then-unpaid bonus from a prior calendar year, and a pro rata target bonus for the year of termination at target level, (ii) 100% of all unvested equity that had been granted prior to the date of termination (including, if applicable, the Retention Equity Grant) shall become fully vested and (iii) company-paid COBRA premiums for the NEO and his eligible dependents for a period of 18 months following termination. The occurrence of the closing of the Business Combination will not constitute a Sale Event.

The foregoing descriptions of the Executive Agreements are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of each of the Initial Executive Agreements, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.9-10.11 and are incorporated herein by reference. The Rodriques Amendment will be filed upon its execution in connection with the closing of the Merger.

The information set forth under the heading “Interests of Forge’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger—Transaction Bonuses and Promissory Notes” on page 263 of the Definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

​Notwithstanding the foregoing, immediately prior to the Business Combination, Messrs. Rodriques, Lee, and Cobos will have an applicable portion of their respective Transaction Bonuses used to offset certain outstanding promissory notes between the NEO and Forge. Based on the amount of accrued interest expected as of March 21, 2022, the outstanding amount of the promissory notes for each NEO is set forth below:

After offset of the above promissory notes and applicable tax withholding payments by the Company, Mr. Rodriques is not expected to receive any net cash proceeds from the Transaction Bonus.

The information set forth under the heading “Interests of Forge’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger—Retention Equity Grants” on page 264 of the Definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

Retention Equity Grants. Pursuant to the Executive Agreements, and subject to the effectiveness of New Forge’s Form S-8 registration statement and executive’s continued employment through the applicable grant date, each of our NEOs will be eligible to receive equity awards out of the Equity Bonus Pool in the form of restricted stock units having values of at least $5,217,067, $3,937,500 and $3,937,500, respectively (each, a “Retention Equity Grant”). Such Retention Equity Grant will vest, subject to the NEO’s employment through the applicable vesting date, as follows: 33.33% of the Retention Equity Grant will vest upon the first anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination (the “First Tranche”); 33.33% of the Retention Equity Grant will vest upon the second anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination (the “Second Tranche”); and 33.33% of the Retention Equity Grant will vest upon the third anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination (the “Third Tranche”) (the “Time-Vesting Schedule”). With respect to the grants made to Messrs. Rodriques, Lee and Cobos, the Retention Equity Grant will become eligible to vest after the expiration of the six-month period following the closing of the Business Combination (the “Lock-Up Period”) as follows: (i) the First Tranche will immediately vest if the Company’s stock price meets or exceeds a price of $12.50 for 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period following the Lock-Up Period but prior to the vesting date of the First Tranche under the Time-Vesting Schedule, in which case the Second Tranche and Third Tranche will have their time-vesting component accelerated by six months; and (ii) the Second Tranche will immediately vest if the stock price meets or exceeds a closing price of $15.00 for 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period following the Lock-Up Period but prior to the vesting date of the Second Tranche under the Time-Vesting Schedule, in which case the Third Tranche will have its time-vesting component accelerated by an additional six months. The Retention Equity Grant will vest in accordance with such vesting provisions in the event the share price triggers are achieved through the date of a “change of control” of the Company (as defined in the 2021 Plan). Each NEO will forfeit such grant in exchange for no consideration in the event the Merger is not consummated or such NEO’s employment is terminated for any reason prior to the grant of such restricted stock units. That said, the NEO will be eligible to receive 20% of the Retention Equity Grant on a fully-vested basis in the event his employment is terminated without “cause” ​(as defined in the respective New Executive Agreement) prior to the closing of the Business Combination, subject to such NEO’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims.

The information set forth under the heading “New Plan Benefits” on page 171 of the Definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

The 2022 Plan does not provide for set benefits or amounts of awards and we have not approved any stock awards that are conditioned on shareholder approval of the 2022 Plan. However, New Forge will establish an incentive pool equal to 3.5% of the outstanding shares immediately following the closing of the Business Combination (the “Incentive Pool”). A portion of the Incentive Pool will be paid in the form of cash bonuses (“Transaction Bonus Pool”) and a portion of the Incentive Pool will be paid in the form of restricted stock units (“Equity Bonus Pool”). On an as converted basis assuming a no-redemption scenario there would be an estimated 188,487,303 pro forma shares of common stock outstanding at Closing. All other future awards to executive officers, employees and consultants under the 2022 Plan are discretionary and cannot be determined at this time. As of the date hereof, we have 3 executive officers, 280 employees, 7 non-employee directors and 3 consultants who will be eligible for awards under the 2022 Plan.
