EXPLANATORY NOTE

Item 3 of the Initial Schedule 13D is hereby amended by deleting the following paragraph from the text thereof:

Mr. Zage holds an option to acquire 381,314 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock from another shareholder within 60 days of the consummation of the Business Combination.

Item 5 of the Initial Schedule 13D is hereby amended by deleting the text thereof in its entirety and substituting the following in lieu thereof:

The information contained in rows 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 on the cover page of this Schedule 13D and the information set forth or incorporated in Items 2, 3 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 5.

(a) Tiga SVH, Tiga Investments and Mr. Zage beneficially own an aggregate of 75,446,048, 75,446,048 and 94,926,048 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, respectively, which in aggregate represents approximately 39.6%, 39.6% and 49.8% of the Issuer’s issued and outstanding Common Stock, respectively, consisting of consisting of i) 174,066,386 shares of the Common Stock outstanding reported on the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed on August 14, 2023, plus ii) 16,423,762 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock issuable to the Reporting Persons, to the extent the Reporting Persons elect to exercise 16,423,762 warrants to purchase shares of the Issuer’s common stock held at a $11.50/share exercise price.

Information required by Instruction C of Schedule 13D with respect to the directors, executive officers, or persons holding equivalent positions of the Reporting Persons, is set forth on Annex A attached hereto.

(b) As of the date of this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons own 2,463,800 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock subject to the arrangements under the Participation Agreement (as defined below) described in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D. Thus, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to share with the Participant (as defined below) beneficial ownership of 1.3% of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock of the Company deemed issued and outstanding as of the date of this Schedule 13D, consisting of i) 174,066,386 shares of the Common Stock outstanding reported on the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed on August 14, 2023, plus ii) 16,423,762 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock issuable to the Reporting Persons, to the extent the Reporting Persons elect to exercise 16,423,762 warrants to purchase shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock held at a $11.50/share exercise price.

Reporting Person Mr. Zage, as sole equityholder in Tiga Investments, which is the sole equityholder in Tiga SVH, has sole power to vote or direct the vote of the 92,462,248 shares and sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of the 94,926,048 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, subject to the information incorporated by reference into this Item 5 and shared power to vote or direct the vote of 2,463,800 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock as a result of the arrangements under the Participation Agreement described in Item 6.

In addition, during the past 60 days, Mr. Zage effected the purchases of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock listed below through open market through the date of this filing. Other than the acquisition of the shares as reported herein, as described under Item 4 and the information incorporated by reference into this Item 5, and as set forth herein, the Reporting Persons have not affected any other transactions in the shares of the Issuer during the past 60 days.
