Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

ACR 9, ACR Parallel and ACR P, or their Affiliates (collectively, the “Initial Holders”), initially invested in the predecessor to the Issuer in 2014.

On March 19, 2021, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Support.com, Inc. (“Support”) and GGH Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into Support with Support continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, the Issuer filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with respect to the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock as consideration under the Merger Agreement. The Merger was consummated on September 14, 2021 and thereafter the Class A Common Stock commenced trading on the NASDAQ Global Market. Prior to the effective time of the Merger, each of the Initial Holders beneficially owned the shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer as set forth in Item 2 of this Schedule 13D.

On January 31, 2023, in connection with the Consent and Amendment No. 1 to the Promissory Note between the Issuer and B.

Riley Securities, Inc. and Northland Securities, Inc., for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000 and a per share price of $0.84. The investment and purchases were made in part with working capital from capital contributions and/or funds from lines of credit in the ordinary course of business of certain of the Reporting Persons.

No part of the purchase price for the shares of Class A Common Stock or the shares of Class B Common Stock was or will be represented by funds or other consideration borrowed or otherwise obtained for the purpose of acquiring, holding, trading or voting the securities.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

The Reporting Persons beneficially own a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Issuer’s common stock. As a result, the Issuer is a “controlled company” within the meaning of Nasdaq’s corporate governance standards. The nine-member board of directors of the Issuer includes, among other persons, (i) Mr. Bursky, (ii) Mr. Fazio, (iii) David Filipelli, a Partner of Atlas Holdings LLC (“Atlas Holdings”), an affiliate of the Reporting Persons, and (iv) Jerome Lay, a Partner of Atlas Holdings.

The Reporting Persons acquired beneficial ownership of shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer for investment purposes.

Although the Reporting Persons are considering plans or proposals with respect to their investment in the Issuer that could relate to or would result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, except to the extent described herein, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any such matters.The Reporting Persons have had discussions with management of the Issuer, other members of the Board, other representatives of the Issuer and other investors regarding the Issuer, including but not limited to its operations, strategy, management, capital structure, their investment in the Issuer and strategic alternatives that may be available to the Issuer. Such discussions may concern ideas, plans or proposals that, if effected, may result in one or more of the events described in subparagraphs (a) – (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

 


The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis.
