ABOUT LIFEWALLET

We are a leading data analytics company specializing in healthcare Claims recovery. Our Assignors are healthcare providers and payers (the “Assignors”) that have irrevocably assigned to us their recovery rights associated with certain healthcare Claims. We obtain Claims data from the Assignors and leverage our data analytics capabilities using our Claims recovery platform to identify payments that were improperly paid by our Assignors. We then seek the full recoverable amount from those parties who, under applicable law or contract, were responsible for payment (or reimbursement). Our Assignors fall into three general categories:

Medicare Advantage. Medicare Advantage organizations (“MAOs”) contract with CMS to administer Medicare benefits to Medicare beneficiaries pursuant to Medicare Advantage plans; and MAOs, in turn, contract with Medicare first-tier, downstream, and related entities to assist the MAOs in administering those Medicare benefits.

Medicaid. Health coverage provided to eligible low-income adults, children, pregnant women, elderly adults, and people with disabilities.

Commercial Insurance. Employer-sponsored or individual purchased health insurance coverage.

Our assets are generally comprised of recovery rights assigned by our Assignors relating to the improper payment of medical expenses. As opposed to service-based contracts, the entirety of these recovery rights have been irrevocably assigned to us, and because we own these rights, our recovery rights for Claims being pursued cannot be revoked.

Although our Assignors are primarily MAOs, Management Services Organizations (“MSO”) and Independent Practitioner Associations (“IPA”), we also can (and in certain cases do) provide our Claims recovery services to other entities such as:

• Health Maintenance Organizations

• Accountable Care Organizations

• Physicians

• Home Healthcare Facilities

• Self-Funded Plans

• States and Municipalities

• Skilled Nursing Facilities

• Hospitals/Health Systems

Our data recovery system operates across a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) compliant IT platform incorporating the latest in business intelligence and data technology. Due to the sensitive nature of the data we receive from our Assignors, we ensure that our data systems comply with the security and privacy mandates under federal law. In April 2022, Marcum LLP (“Marcum”), a HITRUST authorized External Assessor Organization, completed an independent assessment of MSP Recovery’s system and service commitments, concluding that our system met the requirements to satisfy the applicable trust services criteria and HITRUST CSF criteria. This independent assessment verifies that we met the healthcare industry’s highest standards in protecting healthcare information and mitigating this risk, including compliance with HIPAA rules and regulations. On March 2, 2023, Marcum provided MSP Recovery a report demonstrating that our data recovery system’s commitments and system requirements meet or exceed the stringent SOC 2 Type II applicable trust services criteria. For our cloud computing services, we currently use the HITRUST certified Amazon Web Services (“AWS”).

The Company’s History

In April 2014, MSP Recovery’s predecessor, La Ley Recovery Systems, entered into its first assignment agreement. Later that year, MSP Recovery, LLC was founded to provide data driven solutions, and La Ley Recovery Systems filed its first lawsuit against a primary payer—Allstate Insurance Company. In late 2014, we entered into assignment agreements with our second and third Assignors. To date, we have over 160 Assignors. We have been assigned recovery rights associated with claims from all 50 states, as well as Puerto Rico.

Since 2014, we have had significant legal victories, including several significant federal appellate court wins. In these opinions, the courts agreed with us on a variety of key issues, holding that downstream entities, such as MSOs and IPAs have standing to sue primary plans under the Medicare Secondary Payer Act (“MSP Act”) and associated federal regulations (collectively, the “MSP Laws”); and that a settlement agreement with a Medicare beneficiary is evidence of constructive knowledge that the primary payer had reimbursement obligations.

Our Claims Recovery Model: Discover. Recover.

Recover. We receive our recovery rights through irrevocable assignments. We pursue recoveries using a variety of methods, including, but not limited to, demand letters, litigation, private lien resolution programs, and the submission of Claims to mass tort or antitrust settlement coordinators. We quantify and pursue recoveries based on the billed amount (or full commercial value) of service rendered, as opposed to discounted paid amounts based on Medicaid or Medicare rates. Under existing statute and case law, the private cause of action under the MSP Act permits the pursuit of an award of double damages when a primary plan fails to provide for primary payment or appropriate reimbursement. In addition, the Company is entitled to pursue interest pursuant to Section 1862(b)(2)(B)(ii) of the Social Security Act and 42 C.F.R. § 411.24(m), which provides express authority to assess interest on Medicare Secondary Payer debts. As a result, we believe we are positioned to generate substantial annual recovery revenue at high profit margins for our assigned Claims. The below graphic demonstrates the difference between the Paid Amount, the Billed Amount, and the potential for double damages.

The LifeWallet Ecosystem

In January 2022, the Company announced the launch of LifeWallet—a versatile, scalable, and expandable ecosystem, where tokenized data is stored in a secure, user friendly platform with multiple

6

applications. LifeWallet is expected to provide real-time analytics at the point of care, employing sophisticated data analytics to enable informed decision-making and improved patient outcomes. LifeWallet is being engineered to help to identify primary insurers, assisting providers in receiving reasonable and customary rates for accident-related treatment, shortening the company’s collection time frame, and increasing revenue visibility and predictability. The platform aims to avoid the improper documenting of medical claims that can lead to improper billing, thereby preventing fraud, waste, and abuse, and is also expected to provide an application programming interface that allows patients to gain immediate access to all of their medical records when seeking medical treatment. LifeWallet is in continuous development to provide innovative data solutions for a variety of industries, including, but not limited to, sports, education, legal, and healthcare, incorporating extensive privacy and security standards including HIPAA compliance.

ABOUT THE MEETING

What is the date, time, and place of the Annual Meeting?

LifeWallet’s 2023 Annual Stockholders’ Meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 1, 2023, beginning at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time, by means of a live virtual-only on-line webcast.

What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?

At the Annual Meeting, our stockholders will act upon the matters outlined in the notice of meeting on the cover page of this proxy statement, consisting of:

Who is entitled to vote at the meeting?

Only our stockholders of record at the close of business on September 5, 2023, the record date for the meeting, are entitled to receive notice of and to participate in the Annual Meeting. If you were a stockholder of record on that date, you will be entitled to vote all of the shares you held on that date at the meeting, or any postponement(s) or adjournment(s) of the meeting. As of the record date, there were 332,445,943 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 3,106,616,119 shares of Class V common stock outstanding , all of which are entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting.

A list of stockholders will be available at our headquarters at 2701 South Le Jeune Road, Floor 10, Coral Gables, Florida 33134 for a period of ten days prior to the Annual Meeting.

What are the voting rights of the holders of our Common Stock?

Holders of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on each matter that is submitted to stockholders for approval.

How can I attend the Annual Meeting?

In order to attend the Annual Meeting, you must register in advance at https://www.proxydocs.com/LIFW. Upon completing your registration, you will receive further instructions via email, including your unique link that will allow you access to the meeting and will also permit you to vote and submit questions during the Annual Meeting. Please be sure to follow instructions found on your proxy card and/or voting authorization form and subsequent instructions that will be delivered to you via email. You will find more information on the matters for voting on the following pages.

8

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by using the Internet, by telephone, by mail, or during the Annual Meeting via the Internet. If you are a beneficial owner, please follow the voting instructions provided in the notice you receive from your broker, bank, or other nominee, and direct such organization to vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. A beneficial holder may also attend the Annual Meeting, but because a beneficial owner is not a stockholder of record, you may not vote during the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the organization that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote the shares during the Annual Meeting.

As part of the registration process, you must enter the control number located on your proxy card, voting instruction form, or Notice of Internet Availability. If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of a broker, bank, or other nominee, you will also need to provide the registered name on your account and the name of your broker, bank, or other nominee as part of the registration process.

On the day of the Annual Meeting, stockholders may begin to log in to the virtual-only Annual Meeting 15 minutes prior to the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time.

What constitutes a quorum?

The presence at the meeting, in person, or by proxy, of the holders of Common Stock representing a majority of the combined voting power of our Common Stock on the record date will constitute a quorum, permitting the meeting to conduct its business. As of the record date, there were 332,445,943 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 3,106,616,119 shares of Class V common stock outstanding, all of which are entitled to be voted at the annual meeting.

What vote is required to approve each item?

The vote required to elect our two Class I directors named in this proxy statement, each for a three-year term expiring at the 2026 Annual Meeting or until their successors are duly elected and qualified, is a plurality of the votes of the shares of Common Stock cast at the Annual Meeting. The vote required for the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as our auditor is the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting.

The inspector of election for the Annual Meeting shall determine the number of shares of Common Stock represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum and the validity and effect of proxies, and shall count and tabulate ballots and votes and determine the results thereof. Proxies received but marked as abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of shares considered to be present at the meeting for purposes of determining a quorum.

A “broker non-vote” will occur when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary power with respect to that proposal and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast for the election of directors, and thus will not have any impact on the results of such elections. On other matters submitted for a vote, including the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as our auditor, broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast, and abstentions will be treated as a vote “against.” If less than a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding

9

shares of Common Stock is represented at the Annual Meeting, a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn the Annual Meeting from time to time without further notice.

What are the Board’s recommendations?

As more fully discussed under Summary of Matters to be Voted On, our Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the re-election of the two Class I director nominees named in this proxy statement; and a vote FOR the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as auditor.

Unless contrary instructions are indicated on the enclosed proxy, all shares represented by valid proxies received pursuant to this solicitation (and which have not been revoked in accordance with the procedures set forth below) will be voted (1) FOR the re-election of our two Class I director nominees named in this proxy statement; and (2) FOR the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as auditor. In the event a stockholder specifies a different choice by means of the enclosed proxy, such shares will be voted in accordance with the specification made.

How do I vote?

You can vote in any of the following ways. Please check your proxy card or contact your broker for voting instructions.

If your shares are registered in your name (as a stockholder of record):

If your shares are held in “street name”:

You should give instructions to your broker on how to vote your shares. If you do not provide voting instructions to your broker, your broker has discretion to vote those shares on matters that are routine. However, a broker cannot vote shares on non-routine matters without your instructions. This is referred to as a “broker non-vote.” Under the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), the Director Election Proposal is non-routine and, as such, a broker does not have the discretion to vote on the Director Election Proposal if such broker has not received instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares represented. The Auditor Ratification Proposal is considered a routine proposal and may be voted in the absence of instructions.

Can I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

Yes. The giving of a proxy does not eliminate the right to vote in person should any stockholder giving the proxy so desire. Stockholders have an unconditional right to revoke their proxy at any time prior to the exercise of that proxy, by voting in person at the Annual Meeting, by filing a written revocation or duly executed proxy bearing a later date with our Secretary at our headquarters.

10

Who pays for costs relating to the proxy materials and Annual Meeting?

The costs of preparing, assembling, and mailing this Proxy Statement, the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the enclosed Annual Report and proxy card, along with the cost of posting the proxy materials on a website, are to be borne by us. In addition to the use of mail, our directors, officers, and employees may solicit proxies personally and by telephone, facsimile, and other electronic means. They will receive no compensation in addition to their regular salaries. We may request banks, brokers, and other custodians, nominees, and fiduciaries to forward copies of the proxy material to their principals and to request authority for the execution of proxies. We may reimburse these persons for their expenses in so doing.

Board Committees

Pursuant to our bylaws, our Board may establish one or more committees of the Board however designated, and delegate to any such committee the full power of the Board, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

The standing committees of our Board currently include an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Each of the committees reports to the Board as such committee deems appropriate and as the Board may request. The composition, duties, and summary of responsibilities of these committees are as follows:

30

Audit Committee

Mr. Hawkins, Mr. Meltzer, and Mr. Arrigo serve on the Audit Committee. Mr. Hawkins qualifies as the Audit Committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and serves as Chairperson of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors. The charter contains a detailed description of the scope of the Audit Committee’s responsibilities and how they will be carried out. According to its charter, the Audit Committee shall consist of at least three members, each of whom shall be a non-employee director who has been determined by the Board to meet the independence requirements of Nasdaq, and also Rule 10A-3(b)(1) of the SEC, subject to the exemptions provided in Rule 10A-3(c). The Audit Committee’s charter is available on our website at https://investor.lifewallet.com, in the “Documents & Charters” section in the “Corporate Governance” tab. The information on our website shall not be deemed incorporated by reference in this proxy statement. The Audit Committee held two meetings during the year ended December 31, 2022.

The Audit Committee’s charter describes the primary functions of the Audit Committee, including, but not limited to, the following:

31

32

Compensation Committee

Mr. Arrigo and Ms. Assapimonwait serve on the Compensation Committee. Mr. Arrigo serves as the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors. The charter contains a detailed description of the scope of the Compensation Committee’s responsibilities and how they will be carried out. The Compensation Committee’s charter is available on our website at https://investor.lifewallet.com, in the “Documents & Charters” section in the “Corporate Governance” tab.

The Compensation Committee held two meetings during the year ended December 31, 2022.

The Compensation Committee’s duties, which are specified in our Compensation Committee’s charter, include, but are not limited to:

33

The charter provides that the Compensation Committee is empowered to inquire into any matter that it considers appropriate to carry out its responsibilities, with access to all books, records, facilities and personnel of the Company, and, subject to the direction of the Board, the Committee is authorized and delegated the authority to act on behalf of the Board with respect to any matter it determines to be necessary or appropriate to the accomplishment of its purposes.

The Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser.

So long as the Company remains a “controlled company” under the rules applicable to companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, each member of the Committee shall not be required to be an “independent” director in accordance with the applicable listing standards of Nasdaq, including for the purposes of serving on the Compensation Committee. If the Company ceases to be a “controlled company,” the Committee shall assess the independence of compensation consultants, legal, and other advisers to the Committee, taking into consideration the factors specified in the listing standards of Nasdaq prior to the retention of any advisers to the Committee, and annually or from time to time as the Committee deems appropriate.

The Committee shall recommend to the Board for approval general principles for determining the form and amount of director compensation, and, subject to such principles, shall evaluate annually the status of Board compensation in relation to comparable U.S. companies (in terms of size, business sector, etc.), reporting its findings and recommendations to the Board for approval.

Compensation Consultant

In December 2022, the Company engaged Pearl Meyer & Partners, LLC (“Pearl Meyer”), to conduct executive compensation consulting services starting in 2023. Pearl Meyer reports directly to the committee. While conducting assignments, Pearl Meyer interacts with the Compensation Committee, members of the Board of Directors, and senior management as needed. The Compensation Committee has the sole discretion to retain or obtain advice from, oversee, and terminate any compensation consultant, legal counsel, or other adviser to the Committee, and is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, and oversight of any work of such adviser retained by the Committee. The

34

Company will provide appropriate funding (as determined by the Committee) for the payment of reasonable compensation to any such adviser.

The scope of the Pearl Meyer engagement includes assisting the Committee as requested in pre-planning meetings to discuss and finalize the Committee agendas and review materials to be presented to the full Committee; work with the Company or its outside counsel to review proxy disclosures pertaining to executive compensation; issue an annual letter to the Committee which will summarize its annual advisory services and independence as required under Nasdaq rules; assist counsel as necessary to develop the descriptive text to properly support the executive compensation disclosure tables; and work directly with the Compensation Committee to develop the Compensation Committee Report.

The Compensation Committee evaluated the independence of Pearl Meyer to assess whether their work raised conflicts of interest under Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules. Based on this review, Pearl Meyer was determined to be independent and their work did not raise any conflicts of interest.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Mr. Ruiz and Mr. Quesada serve on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Mr. Ruiz serves as the Chairperson of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors.

The information on our website shall not be deemed incorporated by reference in this proxy statement.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s duties, which are specified in our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s charter, include, but are not limited to:

35

Process and Considerations for Nominating Board Candidates

The Board’s objective is that its membership be composed of a diverse group of experienced and dedicated individuals. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying, evaluating, recruiting, and recommending qualified candidates to the Board for nomination or election and for filling vacancies occurring between annual meetings of stockholders. Candidates for membership on the Board will be reviewed in the context of the existing membership of the Board, the operating requirements of the Company, and the long-term interests of stockholders. A director’s qualifications in light of these criteria are considered at least each time such director is renominated for Board membership. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may apply several criteria in selecting nominees. At a minimum, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers:

36

Board Operations

The Board directs and oversees the management of the business and affairs of the Company in a manner consistent with the best interests of the Company. The Board’s responsibility is one of oversight, and in performing its oversight role, the Board serves as the ultimate decision-making body of the Company, except for those matters reserved to or shared with our stockholders.

The Board selects its chairperson and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer in the manner and based on the criteria that the Board deems appropriate. Therefore, the Board does not have a policy on whether the roles of Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer should be separate or combined and, if it is to be separate, whether the Chairperson should be selected from the independent directors. At the present time, Mr. Ruiz serves as the Chairperson of the Board. The Board believes that the current leadership structure is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders given Mr. Ruiz’s role in co-founding and leading the Company. Mr. Ruiz possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities, and challenges facing the Company in its business and is thus best positioned to develop agendas that ensure that the Board’s time and attention are focused on the most critical matters relating to the business of the Company. His combined role enables decisive leadership, ensures clear accountability, and enhances the Company’s ability to communicate its message and strategy clearly and consistently to the Company’s stockholders, employees, and clients.

In addition, the Board believes that the leadership structure enables the Board to focus on key policy and operational issues and helps the Company operate in the best interests of its stockholders. The Board has not designated a lead director. The independent directors call, plan, and chair their executive sessions collaboratively and, between board meetings, communicate with management and one another directly. Under these circumstances, the directors believe designating a lead director to take on responsibility for functions in which they all currently participate might detract from rather than enhance performance of their responsibilities as directors. The Company believes that these arrangements afford the independent directors sufficient resources to supervise management effectively, without being overly engaged in day-to-day operations.

Board Oversight of Enterprise Risk

The Board is actively involved in the oversight and management of risks that could affect the Company. This oversight and management is conducted primarily through the committees of the Board identified above, but the full Board has retained responsibility for general oversight of risks. The Audit Committee is primarily responsible for overseeing the risk management function, specifically with respect to management’s assessment of risk exposures (including risks related to cyber, liquidity, credit, operations, and regulatory compliance, among others), and the processes in place to monitor and control such exposures. The other committees of the Board consider the risks within their areas of responsibility. The Board satisfies its oversight responsibility through full reports by each committee chair regarding the committee’s considerations and actions, as well as through regular reports directly from officers responsible for oversight of particular risks within the Company.

37

Director Independence

Our Board has determined that five of our directors, Michael F. Arrigo, Beatriz Assapimonwait, Thomas Hawkins, Ophir Sternberg, and Roger Meltzer, qualify as “independent” directors within the meaning of the independent director guidelines of Nasdaq and applicable SEC rules. The Nasdaq independence definition includes a series of objective tests regarding a director’s independence and requires that the Board make an affirmative determination that a director has no relationship with us that would interfere with such director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. As part of the Board’s determination, among other factors, the Board considered certain relationships of directors, including employment by LifeWallet.

Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policies

The Company has policies prohibiting (1) each director, officer, consultant, and employee of the Company from trading in options, puts and calls or similar instruments on securities of the Company, including shares of Common Stock or preferred stock and warrants (“LifeWallet Securities”), or selling LifeWallet Securities “short,” including a “sale against the box;” (2) each director, officer, and employee of the Company, each such person’s spouse, minor children and anyone else living in such person’s household, partnerships in which such person is a general partner, trusts of which such person is a trustee, estates of which such person is an executor and other equivalent legal entities that such person controls from holding LifeWallet Securities in margin accounts; and (3) each director, officer, consultant and employee of the Company from pledging LifeWallet Securities when he or she has knowledge of material information concerning the Company that has not been disclosed to the public.

Communications with the Company and the Board

Stockholders may communicate with the Company through its Investor Relations Department by writing to: Investor Relations, MSP Recovery, Inc., 2701 South Le Jeune Road, Floor 10, Coral Gables, Florida 33134 or via email at [email protected].

Stockholders interested in communicating with our Board, any Board committee, any individual director, or any group of directors (such as our independent directors) should send written correspondence to MSP Recovery, Inc. Board of Directors, Attn: Corporate Secretary, 2701 South Le Jeune Road, Floor 10, Coral Gables, Florida 33134. The Corporate Secretary will forward all such communications directly to our Board, such Board committee, such individual director, or such group of directors, as applicable.

Householding of Meeting Materials

Unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of the affected stockholders, we will send a single copy of our 2022 Annual Report and 2023 Proxy Statement or Notice of Internet Availability to any household at which two or more stockholders reside. Each stockholder in the household will continue to receive a separate proxy card. This process, known as “householding,” reduces the volume of duplicate information received at your household and helps to reduce our expenses.

If, at any time, a stockholder no longer wishes to participate in “householding,” and would prefer to receive a separate copy of the 2022 Annual Report and 2023 Proxy Statement or Notice of Internet Availability, and/or wishes to receive separate copies of annual reports and proxy statements or

38

Notices of Internet Availability in the future, or if, at any time, stockholders who share an address and receive separate copies of the 2022 Annual Report and 2023 proxy Statement or Notice of Internet Availability would like to receive a single copy of our annual report and proxy statement or Notice of Internet Availability in the future, such stockholder or stockholders may (1) notify its or their broker or brokers or (2) direct its or their written request to Investor Relations and General Counsel, MSP Recovery, Inc., 2701 South Le Jeune Road, Floor 10, Coral Gables, Florida 33134.

Upon written or oral request of a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the 2022 Annual Report and 2023 Proxy Statement or Notice of Internet Availability was delivered, we will deliver promptly separate copies of these documents.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company’s officers and directors, and greater than 10% shareholders, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of the Company’s securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Copies of the reports are required by SEC regulation to be furnished to the Company. We believe that, during 2022, our directors, executive officers, and 10% stockholders complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements, except for: (i) a late Form 4 filing by Frank C. Quesada dated June 8, 2022 to report the purchase warrants by the reporting person; (ii) a late Form 4/A filing by Frank C. Quesada dated June 14, 2022 to report the purchase warrants by the reporting person; (iii) a late Form 4 filing by Michael F. Arrigo dated June 3, 2022 to report the purchase of Class A common shares by the reporting person; and (iv) a late Form 4 filing by John H. Ruiz dated November 23, 2022 to report to report the purchase of Class A common shares by the reporting person.

39

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC designed to improve disclosures related to the functioning of corporate audit committees and to enhance the reliability and credibility of financial statements of public companies, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors submits the following report:

Audit Committee Report to Stockholders

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for providing independent, objective oversight of the Company’s accounting functions and internal controls. The Audit Committee is composed of three directors, each of whom is independent as defined by the Listing Rules. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter approved by the Board of Directors and held eleven meetings in fiscal 2022. A copy of the charter is available on the Company’s website at https://investor.lifewallet.com, in the “Documents & Charters” section in the “Corporate Governance” tab.

Management is responsible for the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures, and the financial reporting process. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) standards and to issue reports thereon. The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes, including the activities of the Internal Audit function. The Audit Committee has established a mechanism to receive, retain, and process complaints on auditing, accounting and internal control issues, including the confidential, anonymous submission by employees, vendors, customers and others of concerns on questionable accounting and auditing matters.

In connection with these responsibilities, the Audit Committee met with management and the independent registered public accounting firm to review and discuss the December 31, 2022 audited consolidated financial statements. The Audit Committee also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required by Statement on Auditing Standards Update No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1, AU section 380), as adopted by the PCAOB in Rule 3200T. In addition, the Audit Committee received the written disclosures from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and the Audit Committee has discussed the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence from the Company and its management.

Based upon the Audit Committee’s discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, and the Audit Committee’s review of the representations of management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee recommended that the Board of Directors include the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2022 filed with the SEC.

40

The Audit Committee also has appointed, subject to stockholder ratification, Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2023.

This Audit Committee report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or to be “filed” with the SEC or subject to Regulation 14A promulgated by the SEC or to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any prior or subsequent filing by Palantir under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except to the extent Palantir specifically requests that the information be treated as “soliciting material” or specifically incorporates it by reference.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Related Person Policy

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines requires us to avoid or adequately disclose related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the Board of Directors (or the Audit Committee). Pursuant to our Related Person Transaction Policy, related-person transactions are defined as transactions or arrangements or a series of transactions or arrangements in which: (i) the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, its direct and indirect subsidiaries and controlled entities) participates (whether or not the Company is a party), and (ii) a Related Person has a direct or indirect material interest in such transaction. A conflict-of-interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively or interferes (or appears to interfere) with the Company’s interests. Our Related Person Transaction Policy applies to: (i) Board members; (ii) Executive Officers; (iii) nominees for election to the Board; (iv) stockholders known to the Company to own of record or beneficially more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities; and (v) Immediate Family Members (as defined therein) of any of the foregoing persons.

Our Audit Committee, pursuant to its written charter, is responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions to the extent we enter into such transactions. The Committee shall review all Related Person Transactions reported to the Committee and may, in its discretion based upon a determination that such transactions are in the best interests of the Company and such other determinations as the Committee deems appropriate: (i) approve or ratify such transactions, as applicable, (ii) request that the transaction be modified as a condition to the Committee’s approval or ratification, or (iii) reject the transaction. Such transactions will require prior approval by our Audit Committee and, to the extent required by Section 144 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), a majority of our disinterested directors or members of the committee to which such transaction is presented for approval. We will not enter into any such transaction unless our Audit Committee and, to the extent required by the DGCL, a majority of our disinterested directors or members of the committee to which such transaction is presented for approval determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties.

These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.

Advances and Promissory Notes

Pursuant to a loan agreement dated May 20, 2022, John H. Ruiz and Frank C. Quesada provided a cash loan to the Company in the amount of $13,272,176.64 in order to satisfy the Service Fee Account condition as described in the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated July 11, 2021 (the “Closing Loan”). The Closing Loan has an annual interest rate of 4% and was set to mature on November 23, 2022; however, the maturity date of the Closing Loan may be extended, at the option of the Company, for up to three successive six-month periods (for a total of 24 months). The Company exercised this right and extended the maturity date of the Closing Loan. This loan agreement was ratified by the Audit Committee on June 15, 2022.

46

Pursuant to a loan agreement dated June 16, 2022, La Ley con John H. Ruiz d/b/a MSP Recovery Law Firm and MSP Law Firm, PLLC (collectively, “Law Firm”) made a cash loan to the Company in the amount of approximately $112,000,000 (the “New Loan”) in order to: (i) to fund the obligations to pay costs and expenses incurred in connection with the SPAC transaction undertaken by Lionheart II Holdings, LLC, and (ii) to fund operating expenses and other obligations of MSP Recovery, Inc., including repayment of certain funds that had been previously advanced to the Company by John H. Ruiz and Frank C. Quesada of approximately $24,000,000. The New Loan has an annual interest rate of 4%, paid in kind, and will mature four years from the effective date of the New Loan, with no prepayment penalty. This loan agreement was approved by the Audit Committee on June 15, 2022.

In addition to the New Loan, on February 22, 2023, La Ley con John H. Ruiz, P.A. d/b/a MSP Recovery Law Firm advanced $4.95 million to the Company to cover certain expenses (the “Bridge Loan”). The Bridge Loan does not accrue interest on the unpaid balance and becomes due and payable two years from the date of the final advance from the Working Capital Credit Facility (as defined and discussed in Note 10: Claims Financing Obligations and Notes Payable of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2023). Pursuant to its terms, the Company can prepay the Bridge Loan at any time, without penalties, fees, or other expenses.

Legal Services Agreement

At the closing of the business combination between the Company and Lionheart Acquisition Corporation II, the Company entered into a Legal Services Agreement (“LSA”) with La Ley con John H. Ruiz, P.A. d/b/a MSP Recovery Law Firm and MSP Law Firm, PLLC (collectively the “Law Firm”), dated May 23, 2022. Pursuant to the LSA, the Company engaged the Law Firm to act as its exclusive lead counsel to represent the Company, and each of its subsidiaries, as it pertains to certain assigned claims, causes of actions, proceeds, products, and distribution. Under the LSA, the Company will pay the Law Firm all of the Law Firm’s documented costs related to representation of the Company or its subsidiaries approved in accordance with an agreed budget. For the services described in the LSA, the Law Firm will be entitled to: (i) any attorneys’ fees that are awarded to the Law Firm pursuant to a fee shifting statute by agreement or court award in such case, and (ii) an amount, if greater than zero, equal to the difference between 40% of the recovery proceeds due to the Company or its subsidiaries for recovered claims, less any amount due to the Law Firm under the foregoing clauses ((i) and (ii) together, the “Compensation”).

The LSA also contains an advance provision, whereby the Company will advance to the Law Firm a monthly amount equal to: (x) $1,000,000 of the Compensation due to the Law Firm to fund certain resources necessary to provide services by the Law Firm, plus (y) overhead costs (i.e., salaries rent, utilities, and similar expenses; provided that any compensation paid to John H. Ruiz or Frank Quesada by the Law Firm shall not be included in such overhead costs) to operate the Law Firm in an amount necessary to pay such overhead costs reasonably anticipated by the Law Firm to become due in such month. This Advance shall be offset from the Compensation, and in the event that the Legal Services Agreement is terminated, certain additional fees may become payable to the Law Firm pursuant to the terms of the Legal Services Agreement. The LSA was ratified by the Audit Committee on June 15, 2022.

Air Transportation Services Agreement

Historically, MSP has been provided with aviation services pursuant to an Air Transportation Services Agreement, dated June 3, 2019, by and between MSP Recovery Aviation, LLC (“MSP Aviation”) and

47

Series MRCS, a designated series of MDA Series, LLC, pursuant to which MSP Aviation agreed to provide Series MRCS and its affiliates with air transportation services via its private, non-commercial plane. In exchange for such services, Series MRCS agreed to reimburse MSP Aviation for aircraft rental and flight time along with related fees, expenses, and taxes in accordance with a lease agreement for each flight. MSP Aviation is owned by John H. Ruiz.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $153 thousand and $153 thousand, respectively was due from MSP Aviation and included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets in Affiliate Receivable. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, $150 thousand and $400 thousand, respectively was included in General and Administrative expenses related to MSP Aviation in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the amounts were de minimus. Management of MSP intends to continue its relationship with MSP Aviation under an informal arrangement that provides MSP and its representatives with economic terms that are at least no less favorable than the terms it would receive if it were to engage an unrelated third party to provide substantially similar services. This agreement was approved by the Audit Committee on June 15, 2022.

Registration Rights

The Company has entered into the Registration Rights Agreement August 13, 2020 with the Holders (as defined therein).

The foregoing summary of the Registration Rights Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Registration Rights Agreement as set forth in an exhibit to the registration statement.

Virage Amendment

As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending June 30, 2023, on April 12, 2023, we entered into an amendment (the “Virage MTA Amendment”) to the Virage MTA and Virage Guaranty pursuant to which the payment date was extended from May 23, 2023 until September 30, 2024, subject

48

to acceleration upon certain triggering events. The payment obligation will become current at September 30, 2023, and the Company does not currently have available liquidity to satisfy such obligations. Under the Virage MTA Amendment, Virage received a first priority lien on all sources of revenue of the company not otherwise encumbered as of the date of the Virage MTA Amendment, to the extent in excess of the amount of revenues necessary to establish and maintain an operating reserve of $70 million for overhead expenses and applicable taxes. On July 24, 2023, the operating reserve was adjusted to $47.5 million and MSP Recovery agreed not to increase its 2023 operating budget without Virage’s consent.

On January 1, 2024, the Company will be required to make a one-time, lump sum payment to Virage for the period starting May 24, 2023 and ending December 31, 2023, in one or a combination of: (a) cash, in an amount equal to 1.0% of each calendar month-end balance (which month-end balance shall be increased daily up to 20% per annum based on a formula set forth in the Virage MTA Amendment) of the amount owing to Virage as of each preceding calendar month end and/or (b) warrants to purchase Class A common stock at $0.0001 per share, in an amount equal to the quotient of 1.0% of each calendar month-end balance (which month-end balance shall be increased daily up to 20% per annum based on a formula set forth in the Virage MTA Amendment) of the amount owing to Virage as of each preceding calendar month end and the volume weighted average price of a share of our Class A common stock for the five day period prior to the issuance. If paid in warrants, such warrants will expire on January 1, 2026.

Further, for each calendar month beginning with January 31, 2024 until the obligations to Virage are paid in full, the Company has agreed to pay to Virage an amount monthly, in one or a combination of: (a) cash, in an amount equal to 1.0% of each calendar month-end balance (which month-end balance shall be increased daily up to 20% per annum based on a formula set forth in the Virage MTA Amendment) of the amount owing to Virage as of each preceding calendar month end and/or (b) warrants to purchase Class A common stock at $0.0001 per share, in an amount equal to the quotient of 1.0% of each calendar month-end balance (which month-end balance shall be increased daily up to 20% per annum based on a formula set forth in the Virage MTA Amendment) of the amount owing to Virage as of each preceding calendar month end and the volume weighted average price of a share of our Class A common stock. If paid in warrants, such warrants will expire two years from the date of issuance.

The warrants will contain customary provisions for a transaction of this type, including that each warrant will be exercisable in whole or in part at any time prior to the expiration date, be freely transferable, subject only to applicable securities laws, and be subject to customary anti-dilution protection regarding the exercise price and number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued upon the exercise of each warrant.

In addition, the Virage MTA Amendment changed the payment methods to Virage to exclusively be, in the following order of priority: (a) the Proceeds and any other sources of revenue or liquidity of the Company (and its subsidiaries) that are not encumbered by a lien of a party other than Virage and to the extent such revenues and liquidity exceed the amount of net of revenues necessary to establish and maintain an operating reserve of $70 million (reduced to $47.5 million on July 24, 2023) for certain Company expenses, (b) a sale of certain reserved shares of Messrs. John H. Ruiz and Frank Quesada, and the delivery of the resulting net cash proceeds thereof to VRM, (c) Parent’s sale of additional shares and delivery of proceeds to Virage, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions, (d) if not satisfied by the foregoing, a sale by Messrs. Ruiz and Quesada other shares of Messrs. John H. Ruiz and Frank

49

Quesada, and the delivery of the resulting net cash proceeds thereof to VRM; provided that if the VRM Full Return is not fully paid by September 30, 2024 the VRM Full Return shall be payable by any of such payment methods in any order of priority. In addition, in connection therewith, Messrs. Quesada and Ruiz agreed to certain transfer restrictions applicable to their common stock, and agreed to effectuate sales of Company common stock in certain circumstances.
