How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the Meeting, who will separately count “FOR” and “AGAINST” votes, “ABSTAIN” and Broker Non-Votes for each of the Proposals.

The approval of each of the Third Extension Amendment Proposal and the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of a majority of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the votes cast by the holders of Ordinary Shares, voting as a single class, who, being entitled to do so, vote in person (including shareholders who vote online) or by proxy at the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof.

The approval of each of the Auditor Ratification Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal, if presented, requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast by the holders of the Ordinary Shares present in person (including shareholders who vote online) or represented by proxy at the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, and entitled to vote on such matter.

At the Meeting, only those votes that are actually cast, either “FOR” or “AGAINST”, the Third Extension Amendment Proposal, the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, the Auditor Ratification Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal, if presented, will be counted for the purposes of determining whether each of the Proposals is approved, and any Ordinary Shares that are not voted at the Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of such votes. Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes, while considered present for the purposes of establishing a Quorum, will not count as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on any of the Proposals. See the question below entitled “ If my shares are held in Street Name, will my broker, bank or nominee automatically vote my shares for me?” for more information about Broker Non-Votes.
