**THIS IS NOT A NOTICE OF A SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS AND NO STOCKHOLDER MEETING WILL BE HELD TO CONSIDER ANY MATTERS DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE ACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY STOCKHOLDERS HOLDING A MAJORITY IN VOTING POWER OF OUR OUTSTANDING SHARES OF CAPITAL STOCK (AND A MAJORITY IN VOTING POWER OF OUR OUTSTANDING SHARES OF CLASS B COMMON STOCK). NO VOTE OR OTHER ACTION OF OUR STOCKHOLDERS IS REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH THE MATTERS DESCRIBED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT.** 

<br> #### WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND <br>

#### YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY. <br>

#### &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>

#### THERE ARE NO APPRAISAL RIGHTS WITH RESPECT <br>

#### TO THE ACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT.
*Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to "we," "us," "our," "FOA," or the "Company" refer to Finance of America Companies Inc. References to "FOA Equity" are to Finance of America Equity Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, that the Company controls in an "Up-C" structure.* 

#### General Information
This Information Statement is being furnished in connection with the action by consent of stockholders holding (i) a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of FOA, acting as a single class, and (ii) a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of the Class B Common Stock of FOA (the "Class B Common Stock"), acting as a separate class, to approve the amendment and restatement of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (as amended and in effect as of the date hereof, the "Current Charter") to read in its entirety in the form of the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, attached as Annex A (as a redline comparison against the Current Charter) (the "Second Amended and Restated Charter"). Under the Current Charter, on all matters on which the holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to vote, each holder of Class B Common Stock is entitled to cast a number of votes equal to the number of outstanding Class A Units of FOA Equity (the "LLC Units") held by such holder, regardless of the number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by such holder. The Second Amended and Restated Charter will, among other things, (i) reclassify the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock such that each holder of outstanding LLC Units will hold, following the reclassification, a number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the number of LLC Units held by such holder, (ii) provide that each share of Class B Common Stock shall have one vote on matters on which the holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to vote, (iii) make changes to reflect recent amendments to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), including the ability to provide for the exculpation of the Company's executive officers and (iv) make other technical changes, including to reflect the repurchase of equity previously held by affiliates of Blackstone Inc. Annex A contains the form of the Second Amended and Restated Charter, which reflects the foregoing changes as a redline comparison against the Current Charter.

We are mailing this Information Statement to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 26, 2026, which is the record date for determining stockholders entitled to participate in the aforementioned action by consent (the "Record Date").

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
On June 26, 2026, in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL, stockholders holding (i) a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company and (ii) a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of the Class B Common Stock, in each case, entitled to vote on the Second Amended and Restated Charter as of the Record Date (the "Consenting Stockholders"), upon recommendation of the Company's board of directors (the "Board"), executed and delivered a written consent approving the Second Amended and Restated Charter, with the principal changes described in the below sections of this Information Statement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ACTION I: CHANGES REFLECTED IN THE SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CHARTER TO PROVIDE FOR PARITY OF CLASS B COMMON STOCK RELATIVE TO LLC UNITS

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ACTION II: CHANGE REFLECTED IN THE SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CHARTER TO PROVIDE FOR EXCULPATION OF OFFICERS

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ACTION III: OTHER TECHNICAL CHANGES REFLECTED IN THE SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CHARTER

#### Effective Date of Action by Written Consent
Pursuant to Rule 14c-2(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the action approved by the Consenting Stockholders cannot become effective until 20 calendar days from the date of mailing of this Information Statement to our stockholders. This Information Statement will be first mailed to our stockholders of record as of the Record Date on or about [ ], 2026.

The Second Amended and Restated Charter may become effective, for purposes of Regulation 14C under the Exchange Act, as early as the 20th day after the mailing of this Information Statement to the Company's stockholders as of the Record Date who did not execute the written consent approving the Second Amended and Restated Charter. The Company intends to file the Second Amended and Restated Charter promptly following the conclusion of such twenty-day period and the changes reflected in the Second Amended and Restated Charter will take effect upon filing of the Second Amended and Restated Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the "Filing Effective Time"). Notwithstanding receipt of the aforementioned stockholder approval, the Board retains discretion (i) as to whether to file one form of Second Amended and Restated Charter containing all such changes to our Current Charter that are described in this Information Statement and (ii) to elect to abandon any of the amendments reflected in Annex A prior to filing, if it determines, in its sole discretion, that any such amendment is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

#### Notice Pursuant to Section 228(e)
Pursuant to Section 228(e) of the DGCL, if an action by consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting has been taken by less than unanimous consent, prompt notice of the taking of the action by consent must be given to those stockholders as of the record date for the action by consent who have not consented and who would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the action had been taken at a meeting and the record date for the notice of the meeting were the record date for the action by consent. This Information Statement, which is being delivered to all stockholders of record as of the Record Date who did not sign the consent approving the Second Amended and Restated Charter, serves as the notice required by Section 228(e) of the DGCL.

#### No Appraisal Rights
The DGCL does not provide appraisal rights to our stockholders in connection with the matters discussed in this Information Statement.

#### Effect of the Second Amended and Restated Charter upon Rights of Existing Stockholders
With respect to the rights of our existing stockholders, the changes effectuated by the Second Amended and Restated Charter will affect all stockholders of the Company equally. While the aggregate number of votes entitled to be cast by all holders of Class B Common Stock will not change as a result of the Second Amended and Restated Charter, the voting powers of the Class B Common Stock are technically being changed since each share of Class B Common Stock will now correlate with an LLC Unit rather than one share of Class B Common Stock correlating with a number of votes that equals the number of LLC Units for a particular holder. In addition to being approved by the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding stock entitled to vote, the Second Amended and Restated Charter is being approved by the holders of a majority in voting power of the Class B Common Stock, acting as a separate class.

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
The Second Amended and Restated Charter is not intended to prevent a takeover of the Company, and the Company is not presently aware of any potential takeover transaction.

The Board has concluded that the Second Amended and Restated Charter is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and the Board and Consenting Stockholders have adopted the Second Amended and Restated Charter.

#### Interests of Directors and Executive Officers
No one who has served as a director or executive officer since the beginning of the Company's last fiscal year, and no associate of any such person, has any substantial interests, directly or indirectly, in the Second Amended and Restated Charter, except (i) in the case of certain directors and executive officers who hold Class B Common Stock, to the extent of their ownership in shares of our Class B Common Stock, which shares would be subject to the same treatment as all other outstanding shares of our Class B Common Stock and (ii) our executive officers who may benefit from the amendment that permits exculpation of officers. Additionally, none of our directors opposed the Second Amended and Restated Charter.

#### QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

#### What is the Purpose of this Information Statement?
This Information Statement is being furnished pursuant to Section 14(c) of the Exchange Act in connection with the action by written consent of the Consenting Stockholders taken without a meeting, approving the Second Amended and Restated Charter, as described in this Information Statement. This Information Statement also constitutes the notice required to be given pursuant to Section 228(e) of the DGCL to all stockholders of record as of the Record Date (other than the Consenting Stockholders) of the action taken by written consent. This Information Statement will be first sent or given to our stockholders as of the Record Date on or about [ ], 2026.

We are providing this Information Statement to you for your information to comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the DGCL. You are urged to read this Information Statement carefully in its entirety; however, no action is required on your part in connection with this Information Statement.

#### What action was taken by written consent?
On June 26, 2026, the Consenting Stockholders, upon recommendation of the Board, executed and delivered a written consent to approve the Second Amended and Restated Charter.

The Second Amended and Restated Charter may become effective, for purposes of Regulation 14C under the Exchange Act, as early as the 20th day after the mailing of this Information Statement to the Company's stockholders as of the Record Date who did not execute the written consent approving the Second Amended and Restated Charter.

#### Why was action taken?
Our Board and the Consenting Stockholders have approved the Second Amended and Restated Charter because the changes contained therein are deemed to be in the best interests of the Company for the reasons set forth under "Description of the Second Amended and Restated Charter," which provides an overview of the revisions. The Board evaluated the Second Amended and Restated Charter based on the Company's current status and in light of market dynamics, legal developments and market practice and ultimately determined that the potential benefits of the Second Amended and Restated Charter outweighed any countervailing considerations.

Notwithstanding receipt of the aforementioned stockholder approval, the Board retains discretion (i) as to whether to file one form of Second Amended and Restated Charter containing all such changes to our Current Charter that are described in this Information Statement and (ii) to elect to abandon any of the amendments reflected in Annex A prior to filing, if it determines, in its sole discretion, that any such amendment is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Section 228 of the DGCL provides that, except as otherwise restricted by a Company's certificate of incorporation, any action that is required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the corporation in the manner required by the DGCL. Our Current Charter does not restrict or eliminate our stockholders' right to act by consent in lieu of a meeting. In order to significantly reduce the costs and management time involved in soliciting and obtaining proxies to approve the Second Amended and Restated Charter, and in order to effectuate the related updates in a timely manner, the Board directed that the proposal to approve the Second Amended and Restated Charter be submitted to stockholders entitled to vote thereon for action by consent in lieu of a meeting. Following the Board's approval of the Second Amended and Restated Charter, the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding capital stock of the Company, acting as a single class, and the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding Class B Common Stock, acting as a separate class, executed and delivered a consent in lieu of a meeting to approve the Second Amended and Restated Charter. Accordingly, under the DGCL, no other approval by the Board or stockholders is required in respect of the Second Amended and Restated Charter.

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**

#### How many shares of our stock were outstanding on the Record Date?
Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and the Company's Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred Stock") currently comprise its "capital stock." On the Record Date, June 26, 2026, which is also the date we received the consent of the Consenting Stockholders, the following shares were outstanding:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 8,936,570 vested shares of our Class A Common Stock;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 425,850 unvested shares of our Class A Common Stock;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 12 shares of our Class B Common Stock (equivalent to the voting power of 8,088,934 shares based on an assumed exchange of the same number of LLC Units); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 50,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the holders of which are entitled to cast votes equal to up to 4.9% of the aggregate common stock voting power).

#### What vote was obtained to approve the Second Amended and Restated Charter?
We obtained the approval of the Consenting Stockholders, who collectively represent approximately 53.9% of the voting power of our outstanding shares of capital stock as of the Record Date and approximately 97.2% of the voting power of our outstanding Class B Common Stock as of the Record Date. Under the DGCL, our Current Charter and our Amended and Restated Bylaws, the consent of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote, acting as a single class, and the vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, acting as a separate class, is required to adopt the Second Amended and Restated Charter.

Holders of our Class A Common Stock have one vote for each share held as of the Record Date. The 425,850 unvested shares of our Class A Common Stock held by Replay Sponsor, LLC must be voted proportionately with all other shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, in the aggregate (but not proportionately with the shares of Series A Preferred Stock) on all matters put to a vote of holders of the Company's voting stock (i.e., holders of unvested shares will have no discretion in how such shares are voted).

Holders of shares of Class B Common Stock have no economic rights, but are entitled, as holders of Class B Common Stock as of any record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote or act by consent, without regard to the number of shares of Class B Common Stock they hold, to a number of votes that is equal to the aggregate number of LLC Units held by such holders. Holders of shares of Class B Common Stock vote together with holders of Class A Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock as a single class on all matters on which stockholders are entitled to vote generally, except as otherwise required by law. As of the Record Date, FOA Equity unitholders (other than the Company) held LLC Units that were exchangeable for 8,088,934 shares of Class A Common Stock.

The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as a single class, provided that such holders will not be entitled to voting power greater than 4.9% of the aggregate total voting power of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible at the option of the holders thereof at any time, subject to certain limitations, into shares of Class A Common Stock at a rate equal to (i) $1,000 divided by (ii) the conversion price, and a cash payment for accrued and unpaid dividends, cash in lieu of fractional shares and, in certain circumstances, dividend catch-up payments relating to dividends on other equity. As of the Record Date, the conversion price is $35.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock.

Our Consenting Stockholders consisted of Brian L. Libman, the Chairman of our Board, an entity controlled by Mr. Libman and another large stockholder.

#### Who is entitled to notice?
Each holder of an outstanding share of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock as of the Record Date, other than the Consenting Stockholders, is entitled to notice of the action taken by consent in lieu of a meeting of stockholders as required by Section 228(e) of the DGCL.

#### How were the Consenting Stockholders entitled to vote determined?
In order to determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the Board fixed the Record Date as the close of business on June 26, 2026.

#### DESCRIPTION OF THE SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CHARTER <br>

#### &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>

#### ACTION I: <br>

#### CHANGES REFLECTED IN THE SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CHARTER TO PROVIDE <br>

#### FOR PARITY OF CLASS B COMMON STOCK RELATIVE TO LLC UNITS
The Consenting Stockholders have approved the Second Amended and Restated Charter, which reflects changes to the Current Charter to establish parity in the number of shares of Class B Common Stock relative to LLC Units and to provide that each share of Class B Common Stock shall have one vote on matters on which the holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to vote. The revised provisions appear in Sections 4.1, 4.3(A)(2), 4.3(D) and 4.3(E) of the Second Amended and Restated Charter. The following description of the revisions should be read with the applicable provisions found in the proposed Second Amended and Restated Charter, which is attached as Annex A and is marked to show such proposed modifications, as well as additional proposed modifications as set forth in Action II and Action III. The description in this Action I is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the proposed revisions, with additions indicated by underlining, deletions indicated by strikeouts and relocated text indicated in green font.

Currently, the shares of Class B Common Stock have no economic rights but entitle each holder, without regard to the number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by such holder, to a number of votes equal to the product of the total number of LLC Units held by such person multiplied by the number of shares of Class A Common Stock for which a LLC Unit is entitled to be exchanged at such time (the "Exchange Rate"), on all matters to be voted on by stockholders generally or by holders of Class B Common Stock as a separate class. The Exchange Rate is 1 for 1, and is subject to adjustment. The voting power afforded to holders of LLC Units by their shares of Class B Common Stock automatically and correspondingly is reduced or increased as the number of LLC Units held by such holder of Class B Common Stock decreases or increases. For example, if a holder of Class B Common Stock holds 1,000 LLC Units as of the record date for determining stockholders of the Company that are entitled to vote on a particular matter, such holder will be entitled by virtue of such holder's Class B Common Stock to 1,000 votes on such matter. If, however, such holder were to hold 500 LLC Units as of the relevant record date, such holder would be entitled by virtue of such holder's Class B Common Stock to 500 votes on such matter.

The Second Amended and Restated Charter will reclassify the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock such that each holder of Class B Common Stock will hold a number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the number of LLC Units held by such holder. The Second Amended and Restated Charter will also provide that, on all matters on which holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to vote, each holder of Class B Common Stock will be entitled to one vote for each share of Class B Common Stock held by such holder. Through these changes, the Second Amended and Restated Charter will establish parity in number between the shares of Class B Common Stock and the LLC Units. The modified structure is consistent with the prevailing practice of other companies that employ an "Up-C" structure similar to the Company's structure and will enhance clarity in understanding the Company's capitalization (and market capitalization) both for individual investors and analysts. The changes to capitalization will not dilute existing stockholders or otherwise affect the intrinsic value of the Company's business. Additionally, the Class B Common Stock recalibration will not impact the listing of the Company's Class A Common Stock under the "FOA" symbol on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") or NYSE Texas, Inc.

The foregoing change will not change the aggregate number of votes that a holder of Class B Common Stock is entitled to cast, nor will it affect the total number of votes that holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to cast in the aggregate. Shares of Class B Common Stock will still not have preemptive rights and will not be convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Class A Common Stock or any other security; exchange rights will continue to relate to LLC Units, as a paired security to each share of Class B Common Stock, with exchanges of LLC Units into shares of Class A Common Stock still governed by the Exchange Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2021, by and among the Company, FOA Equity and the holders of LLC Units party thereto (as the same may be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Exchange Agreement").

Furthermore, the Second Amended and Restated Charter provides for automatic adjustment in the number of shares of Class B Common Stock upon the occurrence of any split or combination of the LLC Units or change in the Exchange Rate. Additionally, in the event that any outstanding share of Class B Common Stock shall cease to be

held directly or indirectly by a holder of an LLC Unit as set forth in the books and records of FOA Equity, such share, if not transferred to another holder of LLC Units, shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Company or any holder of Class B Common Stock be transferred to the Company for no consideration and thereupon shall be cancelled.

Holders of Class B Common Stock will continue to vote together as a single class with holders of Class A Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders generally. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, holders of common stock have no voting power with respect to, and are not entitled to vote on, any amendment to the charter that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of preferred stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to the Company's organizational documents or pursuant to the DGCL.

To implement the revised structure, the Second Amended and Restated Charter will increase authorized shares of Class B Common Stock from 1,000,000 to 50,000,000. The total number of authorized shares of capital stock will remain at 6,601,000,000 shares, with the authorized shares of preferred stock also remaining at 600,000,000 and the authorized shares of Class A Common Stock decreasing from 6,000,000, 0000 to 5,951,000,000.

The Second Amended and Restated Charter does not modify the par value of the Class B Common Stock or otherwise amend the key rights and powers of the Class B Common Stock. The Class B Common Stock will remain a non-economic security with no rights to dividends or distributions. For additional details on the Company's current capitalization, see "How many shares of our stock were outstanding on the Record Date?" and "What vote was obtained to approve the Second Amended and Restated Charter?"

Holders of Class B Common do not need to take any further action for the adjustment to occur. If the Board determines to proceed in filing the Second Amended and Restated Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, effective immediately upon the Filing Effective Time, each share of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Filing Effective Time and held of record by a holder of LLC Units as of the Filing Effective Time will be automatically reclassified as a number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the number of LLC Units held by such holder as of the Filing Effective Time. Based on the outstanding LLC Units as of the Record Date, if the Second Amended and Restated Charter is filed, a total of 8,088,934 shares of Class B Common Stock would be outstanding at the Filing Effective Time. Such adjustment will be recorded in the Company's records as it maintains the register for the Class B Common Stock.

#### ACTION II: <br>

#### CHANGE REFLECTED IN THE SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CHARTER TO PROVIDE FOR <br>

#### EXCULPATION OF OFFICERS
The Consenting Stockholders have approved the Second Amended and Restated Charter, which reflects a change to the Current Charter to provide for exculpation of our officers from personal liability for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty to the fullest extent permitted by law. This change would alter the exculpation provision in our Current Charter that governs exculpation to clarify that such exculpation applies to our officers in addition to our directors. The revised exculpation provision appears in Section 8.1 of the Second Amended and Restated Charter. The following description of the revisions should be read with the applicable provision found in the proposed Second Amended and Restated Charter, which is attached as Annex A and is marked to show such proposed modifications, as well as additional proposed modifications as set forth in Action I and Action III. The description in this Action II is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the proposed revisions, with additions indicated by underlining.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL has long permitted a Delaware corporation to include a provision in its certificate of incorporation eliminating the personal liability of directors for breaches of fiduciary duties, subject to various exceptions. Because Section 102(b)(7) did not historically extend to officers, the Board believes that qualified officers may have been deterred from serving as officers of the Company due to potential exposure to monetary liability and the risk that substantial expense could be incurred in defending lawsuits, regardless of merit.

To address inconsistent treatment between officers and directors and address rising litigation and insurance costs for shareholders, an amendment to Section 102(b)(7) was adopted, effective August 1, 2022, to permit a corporation's certificate of incorporation to include a provision eliminating or limiting the monetary liability of certain corporate officers for breach of the duty of care. Under the amended statute, Delaware corporations may provide for exculpation of the following officers in certain circumstances: (i) a company's president, chief executive officer,

9<br>

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
chief operating officer, chief financial officer, chief legal officer, controller, treasurer or chief accounting officer; (ii) an individual identified in public filings as one of the most highly compensated officers of the company; and (iii) an individual who, by written agreement with the company, has consented to be identified as an officer for purposes of Delaware's long-arm jurisdiction statute. Consistent with Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, the Second Amended and Restated Charter would permit exculpation of such officers only for monetary damages of breaches of the fiduciary duty of care in any direct claim. The DGCL does not permit exculpation of officers from liability for breach of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or any transaction in which the officer derived an improper personal benefit. The DGCL also does not permit exculpation of such officers from liability for claims brought by or in the right of the corporation, such as derivative claims, which preserves the Board's right to pursue derivative claims against the officers of the Company as the Board deems proper and advisable.

The Board further believes that extending to the company's officers protections comparable to those currently available to its directors is necessary in order to attract and retain top talent and empower our officers to exercise their business judgment in furtherance of stockholder interests without the potential for distraction posed by the risk of personal liability. The nature of the role of the company's officers often requires them to make decisions on crucial matters, frequently in response to time-sensitive opportunities and challenges, which can create substantial risk of lawsuits seeking to impose personal liability with the benefit of hindsight and regardless of merit. The Board also believes this change could also reduce future litigation costs and indemnification expenses for the Company associated with frivolous lawsuits, the costs of which are often borne by a company either directly through indemnification or indirectly through increased directors' and officers' insurance premiums.

#### ACTION III: <br>

#### OTHER TECHNICAL CHANGES REFLECTED IN THE SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED <br>

#### CHARTER
The Consenting Stockholders have approved the Second Amended and Restated Charter, which reflects additional technical changes that are intended to modernize and streamline our Current Charter. The applicable provisions include all of the provisions set forth in Annex A that are in addition to the proposed changes described in Action I and Action II. The following description of the revisions should be read with the applicable provisions set forth in the proposed Second Amended and Restated Charter, which is attached as Annex A and is marked to show such proposed changes, as well as additional proposed changes set forth in Action I and Action II. The description in this Action III is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the proposed changes, with additions indicated by underlining, deletions indicated by strikeouts and relocated text indicated in green font.

Among other things, the proposed technical amendments:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Modify the definition of "Principal Stockholder" to clearly refer to Libman Family Holdings, LLC and affiliated persons, collectively, as a result of the Company's repurchase of remaining equity interests from Blackstone Inc. in February 2026 (and cessation of "controlled company" status within the meaning of NYSE corporate governance standards);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Remove references to the Company's stockholders agreement, dated as of April 1, 2021, in light of recent Delaware law and the aforementioned purchase from Blackstone Inc. (which agreement continues to confer Board nomination and other rights to entities affiliated with Mr. Libman);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Expressly opt out of class voting requirements of DGCL Section 242(b)(2);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Make technical changes to the provision pursuant to which the Company renounces specified corporate opportunities to eliminate extraneous text referencing the duties any person may have with respect to corporate opportunities that have been renounced; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Integrate the Company's previous designation of Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock and attach such certificate of designations as Annex A to the Second Amended and Restated Charter.

The additional changes reflected in the proposed Second Amended and Restated Charter are designed to clarify and confirm the operation of certain provisions, consistent with the DGCL and best practices.

#### BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES
The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Company's voting securities as of June 26, 2026 by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each person known to the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company's voting securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each named executive officer or director of the Company; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• all executive officers and directors of the Company as a group.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if they possess sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days.

The beneficial ownership as of June 26, 2026 is based on 8,936,570 vested shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, 12 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding and 50,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding.

See "What vote was obtained to approve the Second Amended and Restated Charter?" for additional information about voting rights of our securities.

The beneficial ownership information in the "Shares of Class A Common Stock" and "Class A Share %" columns below excludes 425,850 unvested shares of Class A Common Stock held by Replay Sponsor, LLC, which are subject to vesting and forfeiture and will not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions, or to have any other economic rights until such shares are vested, and such shares will not be entitled to receive back dividends or other distributions or any other form of economic "catch-up" once they become vested.

Unless otherwise noted, the information below also excludes (i) shares of Class A Common Stock underlying outstanding "Earnout Rights," (ii) the shares reserved that may be issued pursuant to the Company's equity awards, (iii) shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exchange of the Company's 10.000% Exchangeable Senior Secured Notes due November 30, 2029 ("Exchangeable Secured Notes"), (iv) shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company's unsecured convertible promissory notes, (v) shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exchange of an equal number of LLC Units and (vi) shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares beneficially owned by them. Unless otherwise noted, the business address of each of the following entities or individuals is 5830 Granite Parkway, Suite 400, Plano, Texas 75024.

(1) Subject to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the LLC Units are exchangeable for shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. Beneficial ownership of LLC Units reflected in this table is not reflected as beneficial ownership of shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock for which such LLC Units may be exchanged. 

(2) Shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible at the option of the holders thereof at any time, subject to certain limitations, into shares of Class A Common Stock at a rate equal to (i) $1,000 divided by (ii) the conversion price, and a cash payment for accrued and unpaid dividends, cash in lieu of fractional shares and, in certain circumstances, dividend catch-up payments relating to dividends on other equity. As of June 26, 2026, the conversion price is $35.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock. Beneficial ownership of Series A Preferred Stock reflected in this table is not reflected as beneficial ownership of shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock into which such Series A Preferred Stock may be converted.

(3) Represents the voting power of the applicable beneficial owner's Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock as a percentage of the total voting power of the Company's Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock voting together as a single class. The information presented in the "% of Total Voting Power" column is based on the actual number of shares and LLC Units outstanding as of June 26, 2026, without taking into consideration any shares or LLC Units that may be issued after June 26, 2026. As of June 26, 2026, there are 425,850 unvested shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, which are voted proportionately with all other shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (but not proportionately with the shares of Series A Preferred Stock). For purposes of calculating the values set forth in the "% of Total Voting Power" column, the voting power of such 425,850 unvested shares of Class A Common Stock is allocated proportionally to the shares of Common Stock that were vested as of June 26, 2026. Shares of Class B Common Stock have no economic rights but provide each holder of at least one such share (regardless of the number of shares so held) to a number of votes that is equal to the aggregate number of LLC Units held by such holder on all matters on which stockholders of the Company are entitled to vote generally. The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the holders of shares of Common Stock as a single class, provided that such holders will not be entitled to voting power greater than 4.9% of the aggregate total voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
