As further contemplated by the Merger Agreement (1) at the Initial Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Initial Merger, each ordinary share of GCL Global was automatically cancelled and exchanged for the right to receive such number of newly issued ordinary shares of PubCo (the “PubCo Ordinary Shares”) equal to the Company Exchange Ratio (the “Merger Consideration Shares”), (2) at the SPAC Merger Effective Time, each unit of RFAC (“RFAC Unit”) was separated into (a) one share of RFAC Class A common stock (“RFAC Class A Common Stock”), (b) one right (“RFAC Right”), and (c) one warrant (“RFAC Warrant”) entitling a holder to purchase one share of RFAC Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share, (3) at the SPAC Merger Effective Time, immediately after the separation of each RFAC Unit, each holder of 10 or more RFAC Rights received one share of RFAC Class A Common Stock for each 10 such RFAC Rights, (4) at the SPAC Merger Effective Time, immediately following the separation of each RFAC Unit, each RFAC Class A Common Stock was cancelled and exchanged for a PubCo Ordinary Share, on a one-for-one basis, and (5) at the SPAC Merger Effective Time, each public and private warrant of RFAC was automatically modified to a public warrant of PubCo (“PubCo Public Warrant”) and a private warrant of PubCo (“PubCo Private Warrant,” collectively, the “PubCo Warrants”) each entitling each holder to acquire PubCo Ordinary Shares (subject to any restrictions or legends noted therein) for $11.50 per share.

 

On February 14, 2025, PubCo’s ordinary shares began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market Select under the symbol “GCL” and PubCo’s warrants began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “GCLWW.”
