The Shares to which this Schedule 13D relates
were initially acquired by the Mason Funds based on the belief that the Shares were undervalued and represented an attractive investment
opportunity. Specifically, the Reporting Persons believe that the Issuer’s announced proposed merger with PSQ Holdings,
Inc. (“PublicSq.”) positions the Issuer at the forefront of an underserved and emerging market at the intersection
of technology, e-commerce and social issues with significant room for growth and corresponding increases in shareholder value.
The Reporting Persons intend to engage with the
Issuer and management regarding PublicSq.’s business and strategic direction, and may explore and/or develop plans and/or make
proposals (whether preliminary or final) with respect to, among other things, potential changes to the business of the Issuer and/or
PublicSq., management, board composition, investor communications, operations, capital allocation, dividend policy, financial
condition, mergers and acquisitions strategy, overall business strategy, executive compensation, corporate governance related to the
Issuer’s and/or PublicSq.’s business and stakeholders. The Reporting Persons may also have similar conversations with
other shareholders or other interested parties, such as industry analysts, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors,
investment professionals and other investors and may exchange information with any such persons or the Issuer pursuant to
appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements (which may contain customary standstill provisions). The Reporting Persons may at
any time reconsider and change their intentions relating to the foregoing. The Reporting Persons may also take one or more of the
actions described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D and may discuss or propose such actions with the Issuer’s
management and the board of directors of the Issuer, other shareholders of the Issuer, and other interested parties, such as those
set out above.
The Reporting Persons intend to review their investments
in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors, including, without limitation, consummation of the Issuer’s proposed
merger with PublicSq., the Issuer’s financial position and ongoing strategic direction, the outcome of the actions referenced above, actions
taken by the Issuer’s board of directors, price levels of the Shares, liquidity requirements and other investment opportunities available
to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may
in the future take actions with respect to their investment position in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation,
purchasing additional Shares or other instruments that are based upon or relate to the value of the Shares or the Issuer in the open market
or otherwise, selling some or all of the securities reported herein, and/or engaging in hedging or similar transactions with respect to
the Shares. |
