Closing of the Mergers


On the Closing Date, Parent completed the acquisition of the Company. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Mergers (the "Effective Time"), each share of the Company's Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class A Common Stock"), and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class B Common Stock" and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the "Hemisphere Common Stock"), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than certain excluded shares of Hemisphere Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, was cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into and thereafter represents the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $7.00 per share of Hemisphere Common Stock ("Merger Consideration"), payable to the holder thereof, without interest, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement.

In addition, at the Effective Time:

• each outstanding option to purchase shares of Hemisphere Common Stock (the


   "Hemisphere Options"), whether vested or unvested, was, by virtue of the
   Merger, cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash,
   without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, equal to the
   product obtained by multiplying (a) the aggregate number of shares of
   Hemisphere Common Stock subject to such Hemisphere Option immediately prior to
   the Effective Time by (b) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over
   the exercise price per share of such Hemisphere Option, provided, that any
   Hemisphere Option with an exercise price per share that was equal to or greater
   than the Merger Consideration was automatically canceled at the Effective Time
   without payment of any consideration;



• each outstanding restricted share of Hemisphere Common Stock (the "Hemisphere


   RS Awards") (other than any Hemisphere RS Awards outstanding as of immediately
   prior to the Effective Time that were granted to one of the Company's
   non-employee directors in the ordinary course of business in connection with
   the Company's 2022 annual shareholder meeting (the "Director Interim Awards"))
   were treated at the Effective Time the same as, and had the same rights and
   were subject to the same conditions as, an outstanding share of Hemisphere
   Common Stock not subject to any restrictions and, accordingly, were converted
   into the right to receive the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time,
   without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes; and



• each Director Interim Award vested at the Effective Time on a prorated basis


   taking into account the portion of the twelve (12) month vesting period that
   had elapsed from the date of grant until the Effective Time and was treated at
   the Effective Time as an outstanding share of Hemisphere Common Stock not
   subject to any restrictions, and the remaining unvested portion of any Director
   Interim Awards was forfeited at the Effective Time.
