Item 8.01. Other Events.

As previously disclosed in a Form 8-K filed on May 23, 2022 (the "May 2022 8-K") by Quantum Computing Inc. (the "Company"), on May 19, 2022, the Company, Project Alpha Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Merger Sub I"), Project Alpha Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Merger Sub II" and, together with Merger Sub I, the "Merger Subs"), QPhoton, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("QPhoton"), and Yuping Huang, the principal stockholder of QPhoton ("Mr. Huang"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire QPhoton through a series of merger transactions (collectively with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the "Transactions").

As also disclosed in the May 2022 8-K, in connection with the conditions to the closing of the Transaction, the Company agreed to use reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary to obtain a final non-appealable order from the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware pursuant to Section 205 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL") validating and declaring effective in all material respects certain specified corporate acts previously taken by the Company and its predecessor that may have been the subject of a failure of authorization (as defined in Section 204 of the DGCL) and certain subsequent corporate acts (the "Section 205 Order"). The Company agreed to take these measures as a result of the identification of potential technical defects in the authorization of the conversion of the Company from a North Carolina corporation to a Delaware corporation and other corporate acts, including in relation to the form and manner in which consents of the board of directors and stockholders were executed and delivered as well as potential administrative or clerical defects or potential non-conformity with technical requirements under the North Carolina Business Corporations Act or the DGCL.

On June 6, 2022 the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware issued the Section 205 Order validating and declaring effective, among other items, the authorization of the conversion of the Company from a North Carolina corporation to a Delaware corporation and other acts taken by the Company, including with respect to the composition of its board of directors.

The Company believes that the Section 205 Order confirms its organization, capitalization, board composition and internal governance documents, processes and procedures in a manner that gives effect to the expectations of its directors, officers, stockholders, other investors and constituents.
