Exhibit 4.4
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
General
The following description of our capital stock and provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Articles of Incorporation”), and amended and restated by-laws (the “By-laws”) are summaries and are qualified by reference to the Articles of Incorporation and the By-laws that are on file with the SEC.
Authorized Capital Stock
Our Articles of Incorporation authorize us to issue 150,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.
Common Stock
The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably the dividends out of assets or funds legally available for the payment of dividends at such times and in such amounts as our Board of Directors (the “Board”) from time to time may determine, subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock. Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. There is no cumulative voting of the election of directors then standing for election. Our common stock is not entitled to pre-emptive rights and is not subject to conversion or redemption. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets legally available for distribution to stockholders are distributable ratably among the holders of our common stock after payment of liabilities, accrued dividends and liquidation preferences, if any. All outstanding shares are, when sold, validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable.
Preferred Stock
The Board is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock without further action by the holders of our common stock. The shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of which will have such distinctive designation or title as shall be determined by our Board prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. Preferred stock will have such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated in such resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such class or series of preferred stock as may be adopted from time to time by the Board prior to the issuance of any shares thereof.
The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the rights of the holders of common stock and, therefore, reduce the value of the common stock. It is not possible to state the actual effect of the issuance of any shares of preferred stock on the rights of holders of the common stock until the Board determines the specific rights of the holders of the preferred stock; however, these effects may include:
		·
	Restricting dividends on the common stock;

		·
	Diluting the voting power of the common stock;

		·
	Impairing the liquidation rights of the common stock; or

		·
	Delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without further action by the stockholders.

Registration Rights
On December 1, 2020, Petros entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with JCP III SM AIV, L.P. and its affiliates who hold Petros capital stock (the “Juggernaut Holders”). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Juggernaut Holders have the demand registration rights and piggyback registration rights described below, in either case, registering the resale of their shares of Petros Common Stock. These registration rights are subject to conditions and limitations.
Demand Registration Rights. Petros is obligated to file a shelf registration statement under Rule 415 of the Securities Act covering the resale of all the shares of Petros capital stock held by the Juggernaut Holders and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such shelf registration statement declared effective. Following the nine month anniversary of the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, Juggernaut Holders of at least $10.0 million worth of Petros’ registrable securities shall have the right to sell all or part of their registrable shares of Petros capital stock by delivering a written request to Petros for an underwritten offering. In the event a shelf registration statement has been declared effective and is unavailable, Juggernaut Holders of at least $10.0 million worth of Petros’s registrable securities shall have the right to require Petros to effect a long-form registration statement. In no event will the Registration Rights Agreement require Petros file more than two long-form registration statements or require Petros to cause a long-form registration statement to be declared effective within a period of 90 days after the effective date of any other registration statement, other than a Form S-4 or Form S-8 or comparable form.

Piggyback Registration Rights. If Petros proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act for the purposes of registering Petros securities, other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any similar successor forms thereto, the Juggernaut Holders are entitled to receive notice of such registration and to request that Petros includes their registrable securities for resale in the registration statement.
Expenses of Registration. Petros will pay all registration expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, related to any demand or piggyback registration. The Registration Rights Agreement contains customary cross-indemnification provisions, pursuant to which Petros is obligated to indemnify the selling Juggernaut Holders, in the event of misstatements or omissions in the registration statement attributable to Petros except in the event of fraud, and the selling Juggernaut Holders are obligated to indemnify Petros for misstatements or omissions attributable to them.
Expiration of Registration Right. The registration rights will terminate five years from the date of the Registration Rights Agreement.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and Specified Articles of Incorporation and By-laws Provisions
Preferred Stock. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock may enable the Board to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to gain control of Petros by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise. For example, if in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, the Board were to determine that a takeover proposal is not in the best interests of us or stockholders, the Board could cause shares of preferred stock to be issued without stockholder approval in one or more private offerings or other transactions that might dilute the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder or stockholder group. In this regard, the Articles of Incorporation grant the Board broad power to establish the rights and preferences of authorized and unissued shares of preferred stock. The issuance of shares of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock. The issuance may also adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of these holders and may have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of Petros.
Stockholder Action; Special Meeting of Stockholders. Our Articles of Incorporation and By-laws provide that stockholders may take action only at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not take action by written consent. Our Articles of Incorporation and By-laws further provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority of the Board or by our chief executive officer or, if the office of chief executive officer is vacant, our president. In no event may our stockholders call a special meeting of stockholders.
Business Combinations. Our Articles of Incorporation provide that the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which relate to business combinations with interested stockholders, do not apply to us. Subject to certain exceptions, Section 203 prevents a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with any “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that such person became an interested stockholder, unless either the interested stockholder attained such status with the approval of our board of directors, the business combination is approved by our board of directors and stockholders in a prescribed manner or the interested stockholder acquired at least 85% of our outstanding voting stock in the transaction in which such person became an interested stockholder. A “business combination” includes, among other things, a merger or consolidation involving us and the “interested stockholder” and the sale of more than 10% of our assets. In general, an “interested stockholder” is any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.
Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations. Our By-laws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, must meet specified procedural requirements. These provisions may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before an annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders.
Exclusive Forum Charter Provision. Our Articles of Incorporation and By-laws require that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be the sole and exclusive forum for a stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring for the following:
		i)
	any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company;

		ii)
	any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company’s stockholders;

		iii)
	any action asserting a claim against the Company arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Articles of Incorporation or the By-laws; or

		iv)
	any action asserting a claim against the Company, its directors, officers or employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine;

except for, as to each of (i) through (iv) above, any claim as to which the Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum 

other than the Court of Chancery, or for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction. Because the applicability of the exclusive forum provision is limited to the extent permitted by applicable law, we do not intend that the exclusive forum provision would apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction, and acknowledge that federal courts have concurrent jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act. We note that there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce the provision and that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Although we believe this provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, the provision may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers.
Directors’ Liability. Our Articles of Incorporation limit the personal liability of directors to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law and provides that no director will have personal liability to us or to our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty. However, these provisions do not eliminate or limit the liability of any of our directors:
		·
	for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

		·
	for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

		·
	for voting or assenting to unlawful payments of dividends, stock repurchases or other distributions; or

		·
	for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.Document

Exhibit 4.6

DESCRIPTION OF LEAFLY’S SECURITIES

The following description summarizes the material terms of the securities of Leafly Holdings, Inc. registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”): (1) Common Stock and (2) Warrants to purchase Common Stock. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to the provisions of Leafly’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”), Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, dated February 4, 2022, by and among Leafly and certain stockholders of Leafly (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), and the Warrant Agreement, dated November 4, 2019, by and between Merida and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Warrant Agreement”), which are incorporated by reference as exhibits to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of which this Exhibit is a part, and to the applicable provisions of Delaware law.
On February 4, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), Merida consummated the previously announced business combination pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 9, 2021, by and among Merida Merger Corp. I (“Merida”), Merida Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub I”), Merida Merger Sub II, LLC (“Merger Sub II”), and, together with Merger Sub I, the “Merger Subs”), and Leafly Holdings, Inc. (“Legacy Leafly”) (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), , whereby (a) Merger Sub I merged with and into Legacy Leafly (the “Initial Merger”), with Legacy Leafly being the surviving entity (the “Initial Surviving Company”) of the Initial Merger and Legacy Leafly’s shareholders receiving shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Merida in exchange for their equity securities of Legacy Leafly, and (b) immediately following the Initial Merger and as part of the same overall transaction as the Initial Merger, the Initial Surviving Company merged with and into Merger Sub II (the “Final Merger” and, together with the Initial Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub II being the surviving entity of the Final Merger (the “Final Surviving Company”). As a result of the Mergers, Legacy Leafly became a wholly owned subsidiary of Merida and was renamed Leafly, LLC, Merida was renamed Leafly Holdings, Inc. We sometimes refer to the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the other agreements being entered into by Merida and Legacy Leafly in connection with the Mergers as the “Business Combination.” 
Authorized and Outstanding Stock
Leafly’s authorized capital stock consists of:
•        200,000,000 shares of Leafly Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share; and
•        5,000,000 shares of Leafly Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share.
Voting Rights
Except as otherwise required by law or the Charter, the holders of Leafly Common Stock exclusively possess all stockholder voting power with respect to Leafly. Holders of Leafly Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on each matter properly submitted to a vote of stockholders. The holders of Leafly Common Stock will at all times vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, unless otherwise required by Delaware law or the Charter. If Leafly has multiple classes of common stock in the future, then Delaware law could require holders of shares of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a single class in the following circumstances:
•        if we were to seek to amend the Charter to increase or decrease the par value of a class of the capital stock, then that class would be required to vote separately to approve the proposed amendment; and
•        if we were to seek to amend the Charter in a manner that alters or changes the powers, preferences, or special rights of a class of capital stock in a manner that affected its holders adversely, then that class would be required to vote separately to approve the proposed amendment.
Election of Directors
The Charter provides for a classified board of directors that is divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Only the directors in one class are subject to election by a plurality of the votes cast at each annual meeting of stockholders, with the directors in the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms. The Charter does not provide for cumulative voting for the election of directors.
Dividend Rights
Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of the Leafly Preferred Stock, the holders of Leafly Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends and other distributions (payable in cash, property or 

1

capital stock of Leafly) when, as and if declared by the Leafly board of directors out of any assets or funds legally available and will share equally on a per share basis in such dividends and distributions.
No Preemptive or Similar Rights
Leafly Common Stock is not entitled to preemptive rights, and is not subject to conversion, redemption or sinking fund provisions.
Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding Up
Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding shares of Leafly Preferred Stock, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of Leafly, the holders of Leafly Common Stock will be entitled to receive all the remaining assets of Leafly available for distribution to its stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of the Leafly Common Stock held by them.
Earn-Out Shares
    Under the Merger Agreement, the holders of Leafly Common Stock and Leafly Preferred Stock, will have the contingent right to receive up to an aggregate of 6,000,000 earnout shares (the “Earnout Shares”), subject to the achievement of certain vesting triggers prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date.
Leafly Preferred Stock
The Leafly board of directors is authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by the law of the State of Delaware, to issue Leafly Preferred Stock from time to time in one or more series. The Leafly board of directors is authorized to establish the number of shares to be included in each such series and to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights, if any, and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. The Leafly board of directors is able, without stockholder approval, to issue Leafly Preferred Stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the Leafly Common Stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of the Leafly board of directors to issue Leafly Preferred Stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of Leafly or the removal of existing management. There are no current plans to issue any shares of Leafly Preferred Stock.
Warrants
Each whole Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of Leafly Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below. The Warrants will expire on at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the date that is five years after the Closing Date, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. In addition to the Warrants, Merida sold private warrants to Merida Holdings, LLC and EarlyBirdCapital in connection with Merida’s initial public offering. The private warrants are identical to the Warrants except that the private warrants are exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and will not be redeemable by Leafly, in each case so long as they are still held by Merida Holdings, LLC, EarlyBirdCapital, or their permitted transferees.
Leafly may call the Warrants for redemption (excluding the private warrants), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per Warrant in the following circumstances:
•        at any time after the Warrants become exercisable;
•        upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each Warrant holder after the Warrants become exercisable;
•        if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the shares of Leafly Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations), for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period commencing after the Warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to Warrant holders; and
•        if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of Leafly Common Stock underlying such Warrants.
If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and Leafly issues a notice of redemption, each Warrant holder can exercise his, her or its Warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. On and after the redemption date, a record holder of a Warrant will have no further rights except to receive the redemption price for such holder’s Warrant upon surrender of such Warrant.

2

The redemption criteria for the Warrants have been established at a price which is intended to provide Warrant holders a reasonable premium to the initial exercise price and provide a sufficient differential between the then-prevailing share price and the Warrant exercise price so that if the share price declines as a result of our redemption call, the redemption will not cause the share price to drop below the exercise price of the Warrants. However, the price of the shares of Leafly Common Stock may fall below the $18.00 trigger price as well as the $11.50 Warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.
If Leafly calls the Warrants for redemption as described above, Leafly’s management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the Warrants for that number of shares of Leafly Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the product of the number of shares of Leafly Common Stock underlying the Warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the Warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (b) the fair market value. The “fair market value” for this purpose will mean the average reported last sale price of the shares of Leafly Common Stock for the five trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of Warrants.
The Warrants are issued in registered form under a Warrant Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as Warrant Agent, and Leafly. The Warrant Agreement provides that the terms of the Warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, or to add or change any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Warrant Agreement as Leafly and the Warrant Agent may deem necessary or desirable and that they, relying on the advice of counsel, deem shall not adversely affect the interest of the registered holders. The Warrant Agreement requires the approval, by written consent or vote, of the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding Warrants (including the private warrants) in order to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Leafly may lower the exercise price of the Warrants or extend the duration of the exercise period without the consent of the registered holders.
The exercise price and number of shares of Leafly Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of shares of Leafly Common Stock at a price below their respective exercise prices.
The Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the Warrant Certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the Warrant Agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the Warrant Certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price, by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of Warrants being exercised. The Warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of shares of Leafly Common Stock and any voting rights until they exercise their Warrants and receive shares of Leafly Common Stock. After the issuance of shares of Leafly Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.
No Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless we have an effective and current registration statement covering the shares of Leafly Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of Leafly Common Stock. Under the terms of the Warrant Agreement, we have agreed to use our best efforts to meet these conditions and to file and maintain a current and effective prospectus relating to the Leafly Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants until the expiration of the Warrants. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so. If a registration statement covering the shares of Leafly Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is not effective within 90 days of the Closing Date, Warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis.
Warrant holders may elect to be subject to a restriction on the exercise of their Warrants such that an electing Warrant holder would not be able to exercise their Warrants to the extent that, after giving effect to such exercise, such holder would beneficially own in excess of 9.8% of the shares of Leafly Common Stock outstanding.
No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Warrants. If, upon exercise of the Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round up to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Leafly Common Stock to be issued to the Warrant holder.
Anti-Takeover Provisions
Some provisions of Delaware law, the Charter, and the Bylaws contain provisions that could make the following transactions more difficult: an acquisition of Leafly by means of a tender offer; an acquisition of Leafly by 

3

means of a proxy contest or otherwise; or the removal of incumbent officers and directors. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish or could deter transactions that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interest or in Leafly’s best interests, including transactions that provide for payment of a premium over the market price for Leafly’s shares.
These provisions, summarized below, are intended to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of Leafly to first negotiate with the Leafly board of directors. We believe that the benefits of the increased protection of Leafly’s potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure Leafly outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.
Delaware Law
Leafly is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL regulating corporate takeovers. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date on which the person became an interested stockholder unless:
•        prior to the date of the transaction, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;
•        the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding, but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder, (a) shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and (b) shares owned by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or
•        at or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by the board of directors of the corporation and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
Generally, a business combination includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction or series of transactions together resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. An interested stockholder is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns or, within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status, did own 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting stock. We expect the existence of this provision to have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions the Leafly board of directors does not approve in advance. We also anticipate that Section 203 may discourage attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of Leafly Common Stock held by stockholders.
Charter and Bylaws provisions
The Charter and Bylaws include a number of provisions that could deter hostile takeovers or delay or prevent changes in control of Leafly’s management team, including the following:
•        Board of Directors Vacancies.    The Charter authorizes only the Leafly board of directors to fill vacant directorships, including newly created seats. In addition, the number of directors constituting the Leafly board of directors is permitted to be set only by a resolution adopted by a majority vote of the Leafly board of directors. These provisions prevent a stockholder from increasing the size of the board of directors of Leafly and then gaining control of the Leafly board of directors by filling the resulting vacancies with its own nominees. This makes it more difficult to change the composition of the Leafly board of directors but promotes continuity of management.
•        Classified Board.    The Charter provides that the Leafly board of directors is divided into three classes of directors. The existence of a classified board of directors could discourage a third-party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of Leafly as it is more difficult and time consuming for stockholders to replace a majority of the directors on a classified board of directors.
•        Directors Removed Only for Cause.    The Charter provides that stockholders may remove directors only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

4

•        Supermajority Requirements for Amendments of The Charter and Bylaws.    The Charter further provides that the affirmative vote of holders of at least two thirds of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock will be required to amend certain provisions of the Charter, including provisions relating to the classified board, the size of the board, removal of directors, special meetings, actions by written consent, indemnification and limited liability, corporate opportunity and amendments. The affirmative vote of holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, will be required for the stockholders to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws, although the Bylaws may be amended by a majority vote of the Leafly board of directors.
•        Stockholder Action; Special Meetings of Stockholders.    The Charter provides that, subject to the rights of the holders of any outstanding series of Leafly Preferred Stock and the requirements of applicable law, special meetings of stockholders, for any purpose or purposes, may be called only by the chairman of the Leafly board of directors, the chief executive officer or the Leafly board of directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Leafly board of directors, and specifically denies the ability of stockholders to call a special meeting. The Charter provides that the stockholders may not take action by written consent, but may only take action at a duly called annual or special meetings of stockholders. As a result, holders of capital stock are not able to amend the Bylaws or remove directors without holding a meeting of stockholders called in accordance with the Bylaws. These provisions might delay the ability of stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or for stockholders to take any action, including the removal of directors.
•        Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations.    The Bylaws provide advance notice procedures for stockholders seeking to bring business before the annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors at the annual meeting of stockholders. The Bylaws also specify certain requirements regarding the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions might preclude stockholders from bringing matters before the annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at the annual meeting of stockholders if the proper procedures are not followed. We expect that these provisions might also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of Leafly.
•        No Cumulative Voting.    The DGCL provides that stockholders are not entitled to the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless a corporation’s certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. The Charter does not provide for cumulative voting.
•        Issuance of Undesignated Leafly Preferred Stock.    The Leafly board of directors has the authority, without further action by the stockholders, to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of undesignated Leafly Preferred Stock with rights and preferences, including voting rights, designated from time to time by the Leafly board of directors. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of Leafly Preferred Stock will enable the Leafly board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of Leafly by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest, or other means.
•        Choice of Forum.    The Bylaws provide that unless Leafly consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery will be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring: (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of Leafly; (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of Leafly or Leafly’s stockholders; (c) any action asserting a claim against Leafly, its directors, officers or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the Charter or the Bylaws; or (d) any action asserting a claim against Leafly, its directors, officers or employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine, except for, as to each of “(a)” through “(d)” above, any claim as to which the Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery, or for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction. Unless Leafly consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the federal securities laws of the United States against Leafly, its officers, directors, employees and/or underwriters. This exclusive forum provision will not apply to claims under the Exchange Act, but will apply to other state and federal law claims including actions arising under the Securities Act. Section 22 of the Securities Act, however, creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such a forum selection

provision as written in connection with claims arising under the Securities Act, and investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
    While the Delaware courts have determined that such choice of forum provisions are facially valid, a stockholder may nevertheless seek to bring a claim in a venue other than those designated in the exclusive forum provisions. In such instance, we would expect to vigorously assert the validity and enforceability of the exclusive forum provisions of the Bylaws. This may require significant additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions and there can be no assurance that the provisions will be enforced by a court in those other jurisdictions.
Rule 144
    In general, Rule 144 of the Securities Act, (“Rule 144”), permits the resale of restricted securities without registration under the Securities Act if certain conditions are met. Rule 144 is not available for the resale of restricted securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company, including Leafly. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met at the time of such resale:

•the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;
•the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;
•the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and
•at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.
Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Leafly is no longer a shell company, and as long as the conditions set forth in the exceptions listed above are satisfied, Leafly expects Rule 144 to be available for the resale of Leafly Common Stock that is restricted, as further described below.
If the above conditions have been met and Rule 144 is available, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of common stock or warrants for at least one year would be entitled to sell their securities pursuant to Rule 144, provided that such person is not deemed to have been one of Leafly’s affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale. If such persons are Leafly’s affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, such persons would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:
•1% of the total number of shares of common stock or warrants, as applicable, then outstanding; or
•the average weekly reported trading volume of the common stock or warrants, as applicable, during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.
Sales by affiliates under Rule 144, when available, will also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements.
All of the shares issued to Merida Holdings, LLC and to EarlyBirdCapital are restricted securities under Rule 144, in that they were issued in private transactions not involving a public offering. The shares of Leafly Common Stock that Legacy Leafly shareholders received in connection with the Business Combination are freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any shares issued to affiliates of Leafly within the meaning of Rule 144. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Leafly Common Stock initially issued to Merida Holdings, LLC and EarlyBirdCapital as set forth above, and will also register the Leafly Common Shares issued to affiliates of Leafly within the meaning of Rule 144, each to the extent the holder of such Leafly Common Shares participates in such registration. In addition, under the Bylaws, all Leafly shareholders who received shares of Leafly Common Stock in connection with the Business Combination as well as directors, officers and employees of Leafly and other individuals who received shares of Leafly Common Stock upon the settlement or exercise of restricted stock units, options or other equity awards outstanding immediately following the closing of the Business Combination are

bound by certain restrictions on their ability to transfer such shares of Leafly Common Stock for a period of 180 days after the closing of the Business Combination.
The outstanding Warrants of Leafly consist of Warrants originally sold as part of the units issued in Merida’s initial public offering, and private warrants that were sold in a private placement to Merida Holdings, LLC and EarlyBirdCapital in connection with Merida’s initial public offering. Each Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of Leafly Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, in accordance with the terms of the Warrant agreements governing the warrants. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Leafly Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the private warrants. In addition, pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, we agreed to use our best efforts to make effective no later than 90 days after the closing a registration statement under the Securities Act covering all of the shares of the Leafly Common Stock that may be issued upon the exercise of the Warrants, and cause such registration statement to become effective and maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement until the expiration of the Warrants.
Registration Rights
At the closing of the Business Combination, the Company entered into the Registration Rights Agreement, attached as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 10-K, with the registration rights holders. Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, (a) any (i) outstanding share of Leafly Common Stock or any private warrants, and (ii) shares of Leafly Common Stock issued as Earnout Shares to shareholders of Legacy Leafly that received shares of Leafly Common Stock in the Business Combination or issuable as Earnout Shares pursuant to the Earnout Plan and (b) any other equity security of Leafly issued or issuable with respect to any such share of Leafly Common Stock by way of a stock dividend or stock split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other reorganization or otherwise, are entitled to registration rights.
The Registration Rights Agreement provides that Leafly will, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within 30 days after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, subject to extensions as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, file with the SEC a shelf registration statement registering the resale of the registration rights holders shares and will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but in no event later than 60 days following the filing deadline, subject to extensions as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. Merida Holdings, LLC, EarlyBirdCapital, and their transferees may demand not more than three demand registrations or shelf underwritten offerings in the aggregate and not more than two demand registrations in any twelve-month period, and the shareholders of Legacy Leafly that received shares of Leafly Common Stock in the Business Combination may demand not more than six demand registrations or shelf underwritten offerings in the aggregate and not more than two demand registrations in any twelve-month period, and Leafly will not be obligated to participate in more than four demand registrations or shelf underwritten offerings, in any twelve-month period. Leafly will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any registration statements filed pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.
Limitation of Liability and Indemnification
The Charter and the Bylaws provide that Leafly will indemnify its directors and officers, and may indemnify its employees and other agents, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.
Delaware law prohibits the Charter from limiting the liability of Leafly’s directors for the following:
•        any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to Leafly or to its stockholders;
•        acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
•        unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; and
•        any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
If Delaware law is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director, then the liability of Leafly’s directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as so amended. Under the Bylaws, Leafly can purchase insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and/or any director, officer, employee or agent against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not Leafly would have the power to indemnify such person against expense, liability or loss under Delaware law. We believe that these charter and bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions that are in the Charter and Bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit Leafly and its stockholders. Moreover, a stockholder’s investment may be harmed to the extent Leafly

pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
