Subsequent to the execution of the Debt Exchange Agreement, the assets of the SPV were distributed to its members, i.e. Aegis, Bigger, District 2 and LDI. To reflect the effect of the distribution on the transactions contemplated by the Debt Exchange Agreement, the parties, on October 3, 2024, executed the First Amended and Restated Debt Exchange Agreement (the “Debt Agreement”). The seven counterparties to the Debt Agreement with Eastside and Craft are referred to in this Report collectively as the “Investors”.

Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization

 

This column reflects the effect of the merger that the Company entered into. On September 4, 2024, Eastside entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with East Acquisition Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”) and Beeline Financial Holdings, Inc. (“Beeline”). Beeline is a privately-held mortgage technology company that operates an end-to-end, all-digital, AI-enhanced platform for homeowners and property investors. On October 7, 2024, the parties executed Amendment No. 1 to the Merger Agreement.

 

On October 7, 2024, immediately after the closing under the Debt Exchange Agreement, a closing was held pursuant to the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Closing”). Beeline merged into Merger Sub and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eastside, with the name of the surviving corporation being changed to Beeline Financial Holdings, Inc. In the Merger, the shareholders of Beeline gained the right to receive a total of 69,482,229 shares of Series F Preferred Stock and a total of 517,771 shares of Series F-1 Preferred Stock. In addition, each option to purchase shares of Beeline common stock outstanding at the time of the Merger was converted into an option to purchase shares of Eastside common stock measured by the same ratio.

 

The Merger Agreement provided that, as a condition to closing of the Merger, the Employment Agreement between Eastside and Geoffrey Gwin, Eastside’s Chief Executive Officer, would be amended in a manner satisfactory to Eastside, Beeline and Mr. Gwin. Accordingly, at the time of the Merger, Eastside’s Employment Agreement with Geoffrey Gwin was amended as follows:
