    Kyle Cerminara, Chief Executive Officer of Fundamental Global commented, "We are excited to announce the launch of Saltire Holdings with FGAC's acquisition of Strong/MDI. We recently announced the sale of our Digital Ignition business, and the proposed sale of MDI is aligned with our strategic objectives at Fundamental Global. For MDI, being part of Saltire is expected to provide greater access to the Canadian financial markets as the management team executes on its growth plans. For Strong Global and Fundamental Global, this represents an opportunity to unlock the value of our investment in MDI, and we look forward to the future growth and success of Saltire."

    The MDI Acquisition values MDI at a pre-money valuation of $30 million (as adjusted pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement). On Closing, FGAC will satisfy the Purchase Price (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement) with: (i) cash, in an amount equal to 25% of the net proceeds of a concurrent private placement, if any (the "Cash Consideration"), (ii) the issuance to Strong Global of preferred shares ("Preferred Shares") with an initial preferred share redemption amount of $9,000,000, and (iii) the issuance to Strong Global of that number of common shares of FGAC equal to (a) the MDI Equity Value (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement) minus (x) the Cash Consideration and (y) the Preferred Shares, divided by (b) $10.00.

    About Saltire

    Following Closing, Saltire will be a long-term capital partner that intends to invest in equity, debt and/or hybrid securities.

Although Saltire intends to primarily invest in private companies, Saltire may, in certain circumstances if the opportunity arises, also explore potential investments in public companies to the extent it is able to identify opportunities for take-private transactions that otherwise fall within Saltire's investment strategy. This opportunity will provide retail investors access to private and control-level investments typically reserved for larger players, while maintaining liquidity, as well as an ownership interest in the Manager.
