KER OR OTHER NOMINEE,
YOU MUST DELIVER YOUR SHARES TO CONTINENTAL STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY ELECTRONICALLY USING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY’S DWAC (DEPOSIT/ WITHDRAWAL AT CUSTODIAN) SYSTEM TWO BUSINESS DAYS PRIOR TO THE GENERAL MEETING TO DEMAND
REDEMPTION.

The requirement for physical or electronic delivery prior to the vote at the General Meeting ensures that a redeeming
holder’s election is irrevocable once the Extension Proposal is approved. In furtherance of such irrevocable election, Shareholders making the election will not be able to tender their shares after the vote at the General Meeting.

The electronic delivery process through the DWAC system can be accomplished by the shareholder, whether or not it is a record holder or its shares are held in
“street name,” by contacting the transfer agent or its broker and requesting delivery of its shares through the DWAC system. Delivering shares physically may take significantly longer. In order to obtain a physical share certificate, a
shareholder’s broker and/or clearing broker, DTC, and the Company’s transfer agent will need to act together to facilitate this request. There is a nominal cost associated with the above-referenced tendering process and the act of
certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system.

The transfer agent will typically charge the tendering broker a
nominal amount and the broker would determine whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming holder. It is the Company’s understanding that shareholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the
transfer agent.

The Company does not have any control over this process or over the brokers or DTC, and it
may take longer than two weeks to obtain a physical share certificate. Such Shareholders will have less time to make their investment decision than those Shareholders that deliver their shares through the DWAC system. Shareholders who request
physical share certificates and wish to redeem may be unable to meet the deadline for tendering their shares before exercising their redemption rights and thus will be unable to redeem their shares.

Certificates that have not been tendered in accordance with these procedures prior to the vote for the Extension Proposal will not be redeemed
into a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account. In the event that a Public Shareholder tenders its shares and decides prior to the vote at the General Meeting that it does not want to redeem its shares, the shareholder may withdraw
