Monument Circle Sponsor, LLC (“Monument Circle Sponsor”), directly owns 6,175,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Common Stock”), of the Issuer, which are convertible into the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”). Such shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by Emmis Operating Company (“Emmis Operating”), which is the managing member of Monument Circle Sponsor, and Jeffrey H. Smulyan, who holds the majority of voting power of Emmis Communications Corporation, which wholly owns Emmis Operating. As a result of these relationships, each of Monument Circle Sponsor, Emmis Operating and Mr. Smulyan may be deemed to have or share beneficial ownership of the securities held directly by Monument Circle Sponsor. Each of Monument Circle Sponsor, Emmis Operating and Mr. Smulyan disclaim beneficial ownership of such securities except to the extent of their direct ownership.

In addition to the securities reported on the cover pages hereto, Monument

become exercisable beginning on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination and January
19, 2022, and expire five years after the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination or earlier upon redemption or
liquidation.
Up to $1,500,000 of loans made by Monument Circle Sponsor to the Issuer
may be convertible into private placement warrants of the post-business combination entity at a price of $1.00 per private placement warrant
at the option of the Monument Circle Sponsor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Percentage ownership is based on (i) 25,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of December 3, 2021, as reported by the Issuer in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A for the period ended September 30, 2021 and (ii) 6,175,000 shares of Class B Common Stock directly owned by Monument Circle Sponsor, assuming conversion of such shares of Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock (calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i)).
