- Any contingent consideration may dilute existing shareholders if paid in Class A common stock.
- The securities issued or to be issued are subject to contractual transfer restrictions and lockups.
- The securities were offered to a limited number of investors without underwriters, general solicitation, or commissions, and were issued or expected to be issued in reliance on the Securities Act Section 4(a)(2) exemption.
