 as applicable and matters related to the Mergers require commitments of time and resources that could otherwise have been devoted to other opportunities that might have been beneficial to Gryphon or ABTC, as applicable. A decline in the market price of Gryphon Common Stock or an adverse effect upon the value of ABTC’s securities could adversely affect the businesses of, or harm the financial condition, results of operations or business prospects of, Gryphon, ABTC or the Combined Company. If the Mergers are not completed, the Gryphon Board may decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation of Gryphon. In such an event, the amount of cash available for distribution to its stockholders will depend heavily on the timing of such liquidation as well as the amount of cash that will need to be reserved for commitments and contingent liabilities. There can be no assurance that the Mergers will be completed. If the Mergers are not completed, the Gryphon Board may decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation of Gryphon. In such an event, the amount of cash available for distribution to Gryphon stockholders will depend heavily on the timing of such decision, as with the passage of time the amount of cash available for distribution is expected to be reduced as Gryphon continues to fund its operations and transaction -relatedexpenses. In addition, if the Gryphon Board were to approve and recommend and Gryphon stockholders were to approve, a dissolution and liquidation of Gryphon, Gryphon would be required under Delaware corporate law to pay its outstanding obligations, as well as to make reasonable provision for contingent and unknown obligations, prior to making any distributions in liquidation to Gryphon stockholders. As a result of this requirement, a portion of Gryphon’s remaining cash assets may need to be reserved pending the resolution of such obligations. In addition, Gryphon may be subject to litigation or other claims related to a dissolution and liquidation. If a dissolution and liquidation were pursued, the Gryphon Board, in consultation with its advisors, would need to evaluate these matters and make a determination about a reasonable amount to reserve. Accordingly, holders of Gryphon Common Stock could lose all or a significant portion of their investment in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Gryphon. ABTC stockholders may receive shares of Combined Company Common Stock in the Mergers that have a value that is less than or greater than, the fair market value of the shares of ABTC Common Stock. ABTC Common Stock is privately held and not traded in any public market
