Based upon the submission of proxies and ballots, a majority of the shares of TPB SPAC ordinary shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the close of business on the record date were present at the Extraordinary General Meeting by proxy or by attendance via the virtual meeting website, which constituted a quorum. Proposal 1 was approved by the required vote. Proposal 2 was approved by the required vote. Proposal 3 was approved by the required vote. A vote regarding adjournment of the Extraordinary General Meeting (Proposal 4) was deemed not necessary or appropriate because there were sufficient votes at the time of the Extraordinary General Meeting to approve each of the foregoing matters.
