ContextLogic Inc. (d/b/a Wish) (NASDAQ: WISH) (“ContextLogic” or
the “Company”) today urged stockholders to vote immediately “FOR”
the proposed Asset Sale transaction with Qoo10 Pte. Ltd.
(“Qoo10”) in connection with the special meeting of stockholders
(the “Special Meeting”) being held on Friday,
April 12, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time.
VOTING TODAY “FOR” THE TRANSACTION IS
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT AND CRITICAL TO THE FUTURE OF YOUR INVESTMENT
IN CONTEXTLOGIC
Upon closing of the transaction, ContextLogic will
continue as a publicly traded company with ~$2.7 billion of
net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards and $150-157 million
of post-closing cash (cash on hand and marketable
securities, plus the cash proceeds from the Asset Sale, assuming an
April 16th close). Maximizing the Company’s post-closing cash will
best position the Company’s post-closing Board and leadership to
pursue transactions that will utilize those tax assets for the
benefit of ContextLogic stockholders. To realize the benefits of
this value-maximizing transaction, the holders of a majority of our
outstanding shares must vote in support.
VOTE “FOR” THE TRANSACTION TO PROTECT THE
VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT
Completing the transaction will effectively reduce the cash burn
in ContextLogic to near zero, preserving significant value for
stockholders. Stockholders should know that every day that
stockholder approval is delayed reduces the Company’s post-closing
cash position. Furthermore, failure to approve the transaction
would severely limit the options available to the Company and
likely result in significantly less value for stockholders.
The Board urges all stockholders to protect the value of
your investment, by voting FOR
the transaction TODAY.
TIME IS SHORT – VOTE TODAY
A failure to vote is the same as voting against the
transaction and could result in the destruction of significant
value for your investment. Every day that stockholder approval is
delayed will very likely result in materially lower post-closing
cash and puts the value of the NOLs at significant risk.
Every vote counts. Your vote is extremely important, regardless of
the number of shares you own.

ContextLogic stockholders can vote online or by telephone by
following the easy instructions on the previously provided proxy
card. Electronic voting deadline is today at
11:59 p.m. Eastern Time.
