As previously disclosed, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Birch and Fusion BCHI Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, among other things, Birch will be merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”) with Merger Sub being the surviving entity of the Merger, as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer.
 
Following the effective date of the Merger (the “Effective Date”), (i) Marvin S. Rosen will resign as Chairman of the Issuer’s Board of Directors and (ii) Matthew D. Rosen will remain Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer and will serve as the Chairman of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, both on a post-Merger basis.
 
Concurrent with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Reporting Persons entered into a support agreement, dated as of August 26, 2017 (the “Support Agreement”), pursuant to which the Reporting Persons have agreed, among other things, subject to the terms and conditions of the Support Agreement, to grant Birch an irrevocable proxy to vote each of the Individuals’ shares of Common Stock in favor of the approval of the Merger at the meeting of the Issuer’s stockholders, and to take certain actions in furtherance of the other transactions contemplated thereby. The Support Agreement does not convey to Birch any direct or indirect ownership interest in the Individuals’ shares of Common Stock, and all rights, ownership and economic benefits of, and relating to, each Individual’s shares remain vested in and belong to such Individual.
 
Pursuant to the Support Agreement, Birch’s irrevocable proxy grants it the right to vote an aggregate of 2,381,937 shares of Common Stock comprised of: (i) 1,768,415 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Marvin S. Rosen; (ii) 137,075 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Matthew D. Rosen; (iii) 91,216 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Philip D.

O’Brien; and (vii) 63,860 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by William Rubin.
