PROXY STATEMENT FOR

SPECIAL MEETING OF B. RILEY
PRINCIPAL 150 MERGER CORP.

AND
PROSPECTUS
FOR

UP TO 73,464,590 SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK OF
B. RILEY PRINCIPAL
150 MERGER CORP.

On October 24, 2021, the board of directors of B. Riley Principal 150 Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation (“BRPM,” “we,” “us” or “our”), unanimously approved the agreement and plan of merger, dated October 24, 2021 (the “Original Merger Agreement”), as amended on December 29, 2021 and March 10, 2022 (collectively, the “Merger Agreement Amendments” and together with the Original Merger Agreement and further amendments and/or restatements from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among BRPM, BRPM Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of BRPM (“Merger Sub”), and FaZe Clan Inc., a Delaware corporation (“FaZe”). If the Merger Agreement is approved by BRPM’s stockholders and the transactions under the Merger Agreement are consummated, Merger Sub will merge with and into FaZe (the “Merger”) with FaZe surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of BRPM. As a result of the Merger, and upon the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (together with the Merger, the “Business Combination”), the securityholders of FaZe will become securityholders of BRPM. In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, BRPM will be renamed “FaZe Holdings Inc.” and is referred to herein as “New FaZe” as of the time following such change of name. Additionally, in connection with the Business Combination, BRPM’s Class B common stock will convert into BRPM’s Class A common stock and BRPM’s Class A common stock will be reclassified as common stock, par value $0.0001 per share of New FaZe (“New FaZe common stock”) upon the filing of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State upon completion of the Business Combination.

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, BRPM and certain accredited investors (the “PIPE Investors”), including investors affiliated with BRPM’s sponsor, B. Riley Principal 150 Sponsor Co., LLC (the “Sponsor”) and Cox Investment Holdings, Inc., a former securityholder of FaZe, entered into a series of subscription agreements (“Subscription Agreements”) providing for the purchase by the PIPE Investors immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination of an aggregate of 11,800,000 shares of New FaZe common stock at a price per share of $10.00, for gross proceeds to New FaZe of $118,000,000 (collectively, the “PIPE Investment”). On January 12, 2022, Cox Investment Holdings, Inc. assigned all of its investments in FaZe, including its FaZe securities and its rights and obligations under the Subscription Agreement, to its affiliate, AEV Esports, LLC (the “FaZe PIPE Investor”). The closing of the PIPE Investment is conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger and certain other customary conditions provided in the Subscription Agreements.

The parties have ascribed an equity value of the combined company, following the consummation of the Business Combination, of $987 million, assuming none of BRPM’s public stockholders (the “Public Stockholders”) holding Class A common stock initially sold as part of the units issued in BRPM’s initial public offering (the “Public Shares”) seek to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the trust account established in connection with BRPM’s initial public offering (the “Trust Account”). It is anticipated that, immediately following the Business Combination, (i) BRPM’s Public Stockholders will own 15.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of New FaZe common stock, (ii) holders of the BRPM warrants initially sold as part of the units issued in BRPM’s initial public offering (the “Public Warrants) will own 5.0% of the outstanding shares of New FaZe common stock, assuming cash exercise of the Public Warrants, (iii) existing holders of FaZe capital stock or securities exercisable or convertible into FaZe capital stock prior to the Closing (the “FaZe Stockholders”) will own 65.5% of outstanding New FaZe common stock, including the 500,000 shares of New FaZe common stock purchased by the FaZe PIPE Investor in the PIPE Investment, (iv) the Sponsor and its affiliates will collectively own 6.4% of outstanding New FaZe common stock, including the 2,200,000 shares of New FaZe common stock purchased by investors affiliated with the Sponsor in the PIPE Investment and the 173,333 shares issuable upon the cash exercise of BRPM warrants issued in a private placement simultaneously with the initial public offering (the “Private Placement Warrants”), with an aggregate of 2,156,250 shares of New FaZe common stock held by the Sponsor subject to vesting pursuant to the Sponsor Support

 

Table of Contents

Agreement, discussed in more detail below, and (v) the third-party PIPE Investors will own 8.0% of outstanding New FaZe common stock (which excludes the 500,000 shares purchased by the FaZe PIPE Investor and the 2,200,000 shares purchased by affiliates of the Sponsor). These percentages (w) assume that no Public Stockholders exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Merger, (x) include 6,440,827 Earn-Out Shares (as defined in this proxy statement/prospectus) issuable at the Closing in the no redemptions scenario, shares of New FaZe common stock issuable in respect of New FaZe Restricted Stock Awards (as defined below), and shares of New FaZe common stock issuable upon the cash exercise of New FaZe options (which are converted from options outstanding under FaZe’s existing incentive plans) that are exercisable within 60 days after the Closing (using a deemed closing date of May 6, 2022 for the purpose of this calculation), (y) assume that New FaZe issues 11,800,000 shares of New FaZe common stock to the PIPE Investors pursuant to the PIPE Investment, and (z) assume all of the outstanding BRPM warrants are exercised for cash at the Closing. If the actual facts are different from these assumptions, the percentage ownership and voting power in New FaZe will be different.

Immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each outstanding common stock purchase warrant and preferred stock purchase warrant of FaZe will be exercised in full in accordance with its terms, each outstanding share of Series A preferred stock of FaZe will be automatically converted into common stock of FaZe (“FaZe common stock”), and the outstanding principal and accrued interest upon certain convertible promissory notes of FaZe (“FaZe Notes”) shall be converted into FaZe common stock (such exercises and conversions, collectively, the “Company Conversion”). The outstanding principal and accrued interests upon any FaZe Notes that do not convert will be paid in full prior to the Effective Time. It is estimated that approximately 12,885,796 shares of FaZe common stock will be issued pursuant to the Company Conversion (the “Company Conversion Shares”), based on the capitalization table of FaZe as of May 6, 2022 (the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/prospectus) and assuming the Merger had become effective on May 6, 2022. The Company Conversion will not cause additional dilution to Public Stockholders in excess of the dilution to Public Stockholders as a result of the Merger, because the shares of New FaZe common stock to be issued and converted from the Company Conversion Shares upon the Merger are included in the aggregate merger consideration to FaZe Stockholders set forth in the Merger Agreement.

At the Effective Time, each outstanding share of FaZe common stock (including shares of FaZe common stock issued as a result of the Company Conversion) will be automatically converted into the right to receive such number of shares of New FaZe common stock of equal to the Exchange Ratio and such number of shares of New FaZe common stock equal to the Earn-Out Exchange Ratio (which earn-out shares are subject to forfeiture following the completion of the Business Combination (“Closing”) if certain price-based vesting conditions are not met during the five-year period beginning on the date that is 90 days after the Closing and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date) (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”). The “Exchange Ratio” is the quotient obtained by dividing 65,000,000 shares by the fully-diluted number of shares of FaZe common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding certain shares, as determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement and more fully described in this proxy statement/prospectus). BRPM presently estimates that the Exchange Ratio will be approximately 2.27. The “Earn-Out Exchange Ratio” is the quotient obtained by dividing (x) 6% of the sum of (i) the total number of shares of New FaZe common stock that are issued and outstanding as of immediately after the Closing and (ii) the total number of shares of New FaZe common stock equal to the product of the total number of Net Vested Company Option Shares (as defined in this proxy statement/prospectus) calculated as of immediately prior to the Closing and the Exchange Ratio by (y) the fully-diluted number of shares of FaZe common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (as determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement and more fully described in this proxy statement/prospectus). BRPM presently estimates that the Earn-Out Exchange Ratio will be approximately 0.22, assuming no redemptions by Public Stockholders. The actual Exchange Ratio and Earn-Out Exchange Ratio will be determined at the Closing pursuant to the formula and terms set forth in the Merger Agreement, and may be different from the estimated exchange ratios set forth in this paragraph because the fully-diluted number of shares of FaZe common stock outstanding immediately prior to Closing is subject to change, as additional FaZe Options may vest over time and/or additional FaZe securities may be issued.

At the Effective Time, each restricted share subject to a restricted stock award outstanding under FaZe’s existing incentive plans that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of New FaZe common stock having the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such restricted stock award immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “New FaZe Restricted Stock Award”), except that each New FaZe Restricted Stock Award shall relate to a number of shares of New FaZe common stock equal to the Per Share Merger Consideration (which includes a portion of the Aggregate Earn-Out Consideration).

 

Table of Contents

Immediately prior to the Effective Time, seventy-five percent (75%) of each discrete individual grant of the options outstanding under FaZe’s existing incentive plans that remain unvested as of the Effective Time will, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, become vested as of the Effective Time (the “Accelerated FaZe Options”). The Accelerated FaZe Options, together with each option outstanding under FaZe’s existing incentive plans that is vested in accordance with its terms as of the Effective Time (including each option that vests or is deemed vested in accordance with its terms in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) will be referred to collectively as the “Vested FaZe Options.

At the Effective Time, each option outstanding under FaZe’s existing incentive plans shall be assumed by New FaZe and converted into an option to purchase a number of shares of New FaZe common stock equal to the number of shares of FaZe common stock subject to such option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, and having an exercise price equal to the exercise price immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Exchange Ratio. Holders of Vested FaZe Options will also be entitled to receive a number of earn-out shares equal to the number of Net Vested Company Option Shares underlying such Vested FaZe Options multiplied by the Earn-Out Exchange Ratio.

In connection with the entry into the Merger Agreement, on October 24, 2021, BRPM entered into a sponsor support agreement (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”) with the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to (i) invest at least $20,000,000 in the PIPE Investment as well as to backstop the PIPE Investment, if the amount in cash actually received by BRPM from the PIPE Investment at Closing is less than $100,000,000, by committing to purchase that portion of the PIPE Investment not purchased by third party investors to cause the PIPE Investment actually received by BRPM at the Closing to equal $100,000,000, (ii) waive the anti-dilution and conversion price adjustments set forth in BRPM’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation with respect to the shares of Class B common stock held by the Sponsor (“Founder Shares”), (iii) subject 50% of the Founder Shares to forfeiture following Closing if certain price-based vesting conditions are not met during the five-year period beginning on the date that is 90 days after the Closing and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, (iv) subject the Founder Shares to certain transfer restrictions, and (v) vote all voting equity securities owned by it in favor of the Merger Agreement, Business Combination, and each other proposal presented by BRPM in this proxy statement/prospectus.

In connection with the Merger Agreement, on October 24, 2021, FaZe entered into voting agreements (the “FaZe Support Agreements”) with certain of its stockholders, pursuant to which holders representing the requisite vote required to adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Business Combination. Further, in connection with the Merger Agreement, on October 24, 2021, each holder of FaZe common stock purchase warrants and preferred stock purchase warrants of FaZe, respectively, agreed to exercise all outstanding warrants in whole prior to the Closing and certain holders of FaZe Notes elected to complete the Company Conversion prior to the Closing. The outstanding principal and accrued interests upon any FaZe Notes that do not convert will be paid in full prior to the Effective Time.

The bylaws of New FaZe following closing (the “Proposed Bylaws”) will provide that the New FaZe common stock issued to FaZe Stockholders as consideration in the Business Combination and issuable to directors, officers and employees of FaZe or its subsidiaries upon the settlement or exercise of restricted stock awards, stock options or other equity awards outstanding as of immediately following the Closing in respect of FaZe Awards that were outstanding immediately prior to Closing, will be subject to a six month lock-up, subject to certain exceptions described in more detail in this proxy statement/prospectus.

BRPM’s units, Class A common stock and warrants are publicly traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “BRPMU”, “BRPM” and “BRPMW,” respectively. BRPM intends to apply to list the New FaZe common stock and warrants on Nasdaq under the symbols “FAZE” and “FAZEW,” respectively, upon the Closing. New FaZe will not have units traded following the Closing. It is a condition to the consummation of the Merger that the shares of New FaZe common stock to be issued in the Merger be approved for listing on Nasdaq subject only to the receipt of official notice of listing from Nasdaq and, if requested by Nasdaq, the delivery of evidence that BRPM complied with the minimum round lot shareholder requirement within 15 calendar days of the listing date, but there can be no assurance that such listing condition will be met. If such listing condition is not met, the Merger will not be consummated unless the listing condition is waived by the parties to the Merger Agreement.

BRPM will hold a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to consider matters relating to the Business Combination. BRPM cannot complete the Business Combination unless BRPM’s stockholders approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. BRPM is sending you this proxy statement/prospectus to ask you to vote in favor of these and the other matters described in this proxy statement/prospectus. Only holders of record

Such interests include the following: (i) the Sponsor, and the officers and directors of BRPM who have invested in the Sponsor entity, will lose their entire investment in us if we do not complete an initial business combination and will benefit from the completion of a business combination and therefore may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms that would be less favorable to Public Stockholders, (ii) B. Riley Principal Commercial Capital, LLC, an affiliate of the Sponsor, agreed to loan up to $20 million to FaZe, which loan accrues interest at a rate of 7% per year, compounded quarterly and is secured by all assets of FaZe, other than certain excluded collateral, subject to Intercreditor Agreements entered into between B. Riley Principal Commercial Capital, LLC and FaZe’s senior lienholders, CPH and Cox, and in connection with such loan, FaZe waived the Minimum Proceeds Condition under the Merger Agreement, and (iii) B. Riley Securities Inc., an affiliate of the Sponsor, and its affiliates will receive approximately $9.6 million in fees that are contingent on the completion of the Business Combination.

Only holders of record of shares of BRPM’s Class A common stock and Class B common stock (collectively, “BRPM common stock”) at the close of business on May 26, 2022 (the “record date”) are entitled to notice of and to vote and have their votes counted at the Special Meeting and any adjournments or postponements of the Special Meeting.

We will provide you with the proxy statement/prospectus and a proxy card in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the Special Meeting and at any adjournment of the Special Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Special Meeting, we urge you to read, when available, the proxy statement/prospectus (and any documents incorporated into the proxy statement/prospectus by reference) carefully. Please pay particular attention to the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

After careful consideration, the BRPM Board has determined that each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Binding Charter Proposals, the Advisory Charter Proposals, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the ESPP Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are in the best interests of BRPM and its stockholders and unanimously recommends that you vote or give instruction to vote “FOR” each of those proposals.

The existence of financial and personal interests of BRPM’s directors and officers may result in a conflict of interest on the part of one or more of the directors between what they may believe is in the best interests of BRPM and its stockholders and what they may believe is best for himself or themselves in determining to recommend that stockholders vote for the proposals. See the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of BRPM’s Directors and Officers in the Business Combination” in the proxy statement/prospectus for a further discussion.

Under the Merger Agreement, the approval of each of the Business Combination Proposal, both Binding Charter Proposals, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, and the ESPP Proposal (collectively, the “condition precedent proposals”) is a condition to the consummation of the Business Combination. The adoption of each condition precedent proposal is conditioned on the approval of all of the condition precedent proposals, and the adoption of all proposals (other than the Adjournment Proposal) are conditioned on the approval of the condition precedent proposals. If our stockholders do not approve each of the condition precedent proposals, the Business Combination may not be consummated. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned on the approval of any other proposal.

In connection with our initial public offering, our Sponsor entered into a letter agreement to vote its shares of BRPM Class B common stock purchased prior to our initial public offering (the “Founder Shares”), the BRPM Class A common stock purchased by the Sponsor in the private placement that was consummated simultaneously with the initial public offering, as well as any shares of BRPM Class A common stock sold as part of the units by us in our initial public offering (the “Public Shares”) purchased by the Sponsor during or after our initial public offering, in favor of our initial business combination. Further, pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor agreed to vote all voting equity securities owned by it in favor of the Merger Agreement, Business Combination, and all other proposals being presented at the Special Meeting. As of the date hereof, the Sponsor owns approximately 22% of our total outstanding common stock. Accordingly, in addition to the shares held by the Sponsor, BRPM would need 6,208,751 Public Shares, or approximately 36% of the 17,250,000 shares sold in BRPM’s initial public offering to be voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal in order for it to be approved, assuming all outstanding shares are voted on such proposal. If only a minimum quorum of shares of BRPM common stock, consisting of a bare majority of outstanding shares of BRPM common stock, is present at the Special Meeting, BRPM would need only 688,126 Public Shares, or approximately 4% of the Public Shares, to be voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal

in order for it to be approved (provided that consummation of the Business Combination is conditioned upon, among other things approval of the condition precedent proposals and the requirement that BRPM have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 immediately prior to or upon consummation of the Business Combination).

Pursuant to the Current Charter, a holder of Public Shares (a “Public Stockholder”) may request that BRPM redeem all or a portion of its Public Shares for cash if the Business Combination is consummated. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of our initial business combination, including the Business Combination, with respect to BRPM’s warrants or the Founder Shares. Assuming the Business Combination is consummated, Public Stockholders will be entitled to receive cash for any Public Shares to be redeemed only if you:

(i)     (a) hold Public Shares or (b) hold Public Shares through units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares; and

(ii)    prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 13, 2022 (two business days prior to the scheduled date of the Special Meeting), (a) submit a written request, including the legal name, phone number and address of the beneficial owner of the shares for which redemption is requested, to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, BRPM’s transfer agent (the “transfer agent”), that BRPM redeem your Public Shares for cash and (b) deliver your Public Shares to the transfer agent, physically or electronically through Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).

Holders of units must elect to separate the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares. If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants, or if a holder holds units registered in its own name, the holder must contact the transfer agent, directly and instruct it to do so. Public Stockholders may elect to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares even if they vote for the Business Combination Proposal, do not vote at all, or are not holders on the record date. If the Business Combination is not consummated, the Public Shares will not be redeemed for cash. If the Business Combination is consummated and a Public Stockholder properly exercises its right to redeem its Public Shares and timely delivers its shares to the transfer agent, we will redeem each Public Share for a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account established in connection with our initial public offering (the “Trust Account”), calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares. For illustrative purposes, as of May 26, 2022, the record date, this would have amounted to approximately $10.01 per Public Share. Prior to exercising redemption rights, Public Stockholders should verify the market price of the BRPM Class A common stock as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their BRPM Class A common stock in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price. BRPM cannot assure our stockholders that they will be able to sell their BRPM Class A common stock in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in our securities when our stockholders wish to sell their shares. If a Public Stockholder exercises its redemption rights, then it will be exchanging its redeemed Public Shares for cash and will no longer own such shares. Any request to redeem Public Shares, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for submitting redemption requests, which is two business days prior to the scheduled date of the Special Meeting, and, thereafter, with our consent, until the Closing. If a holder of Public Shares delivers its shares in connection with an election to redeem and subsequently decides prior to the deadline for submitting redemption requests not to elect to exercise such rights, it may simply request that BRPM instruct the transfer agent to return the shares (physically or electronically). The holder can make such request by contacting the transfer agent, at the address or email address listed in this proxy statement/prospectus. See “The Special Meeting — Redemption Rights” in the proxy statement/prospectus for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your Public Shares for cash.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of Public Shares, together with any affiliate of such Public Stockholder or any other person with whom such Public Stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 20% of the shares sold in our IPO without BRPM’s prior consent.

 

Table of Contents

Accordingly, if a Public Stockholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 20% of the Public Shares sold in our initial public offering, then any such shares in excess of that 20% limit would not be redeemed for cash without BRPM’s prior consent.

Furthermore, on October 24, 2021, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, BRPM entered into Subscription Agreements with the PIPE Investors, including affiliates of the Sponsor and an existing stockholder of FaZe, pursuant to, and on the terms and subject to the conditions of which, the PIPE Investors have collectively subscribed for and agreed to purchase immediately prior to the Closing an aggregate of 11,800,000 shares of New FaZe common stock at a purchase price of $10.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $118,000,000. PIPE Investors affiliated with the Sponsor has signed Subscription Agreements to purchase 2,200,000 shares of New FaZe common stock in the PIPE Investment and the Sponsor has committed to backstop the funding of up to $100,000,000 of the PIPE Investment at Closing. The closing of the PIPE Investment is conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger and certain other customary conditions provided therein.

On March 10, 2022, B. Riley Principal Commercial Capital, LLC (“B. Riley Lender”), an affiliate of the Sponsor, entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement with FaZe pursuant to which the B. Riley Lender agreed (i) to issue to FaZe as a single advance a term loan in the principal amount of $10 million (the “Initial Term Loan”) and (ii) upon receipt of a borrowing notice from FaZe, to issue to FaZe in a second advance a term loan in the principal amount of $10 million (the “Final Term Loan” and together with the Initial Term Loan, the “Term Loan”), which borrowing notice was sent by FaZe to B. Riley Lender on April 18, 2022 for the advance of the Final Term Loan on April 25, 2022. In connection with the Term Loan, on March 10, 2022, FaZe waived the Minimum Proceeds Condition under the Merger Agreement.

The Term Loan is evidenced by a promissory note and accrues interest at a rate of 7% per year, compounded quarterly. In connection with the Term Loan, on March 10, 2022, the B. Riley Lender and FaZe entered into a Pledge and Security Agreement (the “Pledge and Security Agreement”) and the B. Riley Lender, FaZe, and FaZe’s senior lienholders, CPH, and Cox, entered into intercreditor agreements (“Intercreditor Agreements”). The Term Loan is secured by all assets of FaZe, other than the Excluded Collateral (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement), subject to the Intercreditor Agreements. The Term Loan will be repaid in full in cash on the Closing Date. In the event the Merger Agreement is terminated without completion of the Business Combination, the Term Loan will become a secured convertible promissory note of FaZe, on substantially the same terms as the existing senior secured convertible promissory notes of Faze, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the outstanding principal balance, including capitalized interest, of the Term Loan and the unpaid accrued interest on the Term Loan as of such date. As of March 10, 2022, an aggregate principal amount of $10 million was outstanding under the Term Loan.

Combination and the Special Meeting

The following are answers to certain questions that you may have regarding the Business Combination and the Special Meeting. BRPM urges you to carefully read the remainder of this document because the information in this section may not provide all the information that might be important to you in determining how to vote or whether to redeem your Public Shares. Additional important information is also contained in the appendices and exhibits to this proxy statement/prospectus.

Questions and Answers about the Special Meeting of BRPM Stockholders

Q:     Why am I receiving this proxy statement/prospectus?

A:     BRPM, Merger Sub, and FaZe have agreed to a business combination under the terms of the Merger Agreement that is described in this proxy statement/prospectus. A copy of the Original Merger Agreement is attached hereto as Annex A-1, a copy of the Merger Agreement Amendment dated December 29, 2021 is attached hereto as Annex A-2 and a copy of the Merger Agreement Amendment dated March 10, 2022 is attached hereto as Annex A-3. BRPM urges its stockholders to read the Merger Agreement in its entirety. The Merger Agreement must be approved by the BRPM Stockholders in accordance with the Current Charter. BRPM is holding a Special Meeting to obtain that approval. BRPM Stockholders will also be asked to vote on certain other matters described in this proxy statement/prospectus at the Special Meeting and to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies in the event there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to adopt the Merger Agreement and thereby approve the Business Combination. Additionally, BRPM must provide all holders of Public Shares with the opportunity to have their Public Shares redeemed in connection with its initial business combination. Holders who wish to exercise their redemption rights must, prior to 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on July 13, 2022 (two business days before the scheduled vote at the Special Meeting): (i) elect to separate their BRPM units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants, (ii) submit a written request, including the legal name, phone number and address of the beneficial owner of the shares for which redemption is requested, to the Transfer Agent that BRPM redeem their Public Shares for cash, and (iii) deliver their Public Shares to the Transfer Agent physically or electronically using the DTC’s Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system.

THE VOTE OF BRPM STOCKHOLDERS IS IMPORTANT. BRPM STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO SUBMIT THEIR PROXIES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER CAREFULLY REVIEWING THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS AND CAREFULLY CONSIDERING EACH OF THE PROPOSALS BEING PRESENTED AT THE SPECIAL MEETING.

Q:     Why is BRPM proposing the Business Combination?

A:     BRPM was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more operating businesses.

On February 23, 2021, BRPM completed its IPO of units, with each unit consisting of one share of BRPM Class A common stock and one-third of one redeemable warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of BRPM Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, at a price of $10.00 per unit, raising total gross proceeds of approximately $172,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, BRPM consummated the private placement to the Sponsor of 520,000 Private Placement Units, at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $5,200,000. Upon the closing of the IPO and private placement, $172,500,000 of the net proceeds of the sale of BRPM units and Private Placement Units was placed into the Trust Account.

Like most blank check companies, BRPM’s Current Charter provides for the return of the proceeds of the IPO held in the Trust Account to the holders of Public Shares if there is no qualifying business combination(s) consummated on or before a certain date (in BRPM’s case, February 23, 2023). Since the IPO, BRPM’s activity has been limited to the evaluation of business combination target companies.

Based on its due diligence investigations of FaZe and the industries in which it operates, including the financial and other information provided by FaZe in the course of BRPM’s due diligence investigations, the BRPM Board believes that the Business Combination with FaZe is in the best interests of BRPM and its stockholders and presents an opportunity to increase stockholder value.

Table of Contents

Although the BRPM Board believes that the Business Combination with FaZe presents a unique business combination opportunity and is in the best interests of BRPM and its stockholders, the BRPM Board did consider certain potentially material negative factors as well as certain conflicts of interests in arriving at that conclusion. See “The Business Combination Proposal — Recommendation of the BRPM Board and Reasons for the Business Combination” for a discussion of the factors considered by the BRPM Board in making its decision.

Q:     When and where will the Special Meeting take place?

A:     The BRPM Special Meeting will be held on July 15, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. New York City time, at https://www.cstproxy.com/brileyprincipal150mergercorp/2022. In light of ongoing developments related to COVID-19, and the related protocols that governments have implemented, the BRPM Board determined that the Special Meeting will be a virtual meeting conducted exclusively via live webcast. The BRPM Board believes that this is the right choice for BRPM and its stockholders at this time, as it permits stockholders to attend and participate in the Special Meeting while safeguarding the health and safety of BRPM’s stockholders, directors and management team. You will be able to attend the special meeting online, vote, view the list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Special Meeting and submit your questions during the Special Meeting by visiting https://www.cstproxy.com/brileyprincipal150mergercorp/2022.

We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time and you should allow ample time for the check-in procedures.

Q:     What matters will be considered at the Special Meeting?

A:     The BRPM Stockholders will be asked to consider and vote on the following proposals:

        Business Combination Proposal — a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination;

        Binding Charter Proposals — separate proposals to approve (i) the adoption of the Proposed Charter and (ii) amendments to the Current Charter to increase New FaZe’s authorized capital stock and provide that the number of authorized shares of any class of stock may be increased decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of New FaZe’s stock entitled to vote, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL;

        Advisory Charter Proposals — separate proposals to approve, on a non-advisory basis and as required by applicable SEC guidance, certain material differences between the Current Charter and the Proposed Charter;

        Stock Issuance Proposal — a proposal to approve, for the purposes of complying with the applicable listing rules of Nasdaq, the issuance of (x) shares of New FaZe common stock pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and (y) shares of New FaZe common stock to the PIPE Investors, including the Sponsor Related PIPE Investors and FaZe PIPE Investor, in connection with the PIPE Investment, plus any additional shares pursuant to subscription agreements we may enter into prior to Closing;

        Director Election Proposal — a proposal to elect ten (10) directors, in each case to serve on the New FaZe Board for staggered three year terms or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement or removal;

Table of Contents

        Adjournment Proposal — a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Special Meeting, any of the condition precedent proposals would not be duly approved by our stockholders.

Q:     Is my vote important?

A:     Yes. The Business Combination cannot be completed unless the Merger Agreement is approved by a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock entitled to vote (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws) that are voted at the Special Meeting, and the other condition precedent proposals achieve the necessary vote outlined below. Only BRPM Stockholders as of the close of business on May 26, 2022, the record date for the Special Meeting, are entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. The BRPM Board unanimously recommends that such BRPM Stockholders vote “FOR” the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the approval of both of the Binding Charter Proposals, “FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of each of the Advisory Charter Proposals, “FOR” the approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the Incentive Plan Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the ESPP Proposal and “FOR” the approval of the Adjournment Proposal.

Q:     If my shares are held in “street name” by my bank, brokerage firm or other nominee, will my bank, brokerage firm or other nominee automatically vote those shares for me?

A:     No. Under the relevant rules, brokers are not permitted to vote on any of the matters to be considered at the Special Meeting. As a result, your Public Shares will not be voted on any matter unless you affirmatively instruct your broker, bank or nominee how to vote your shares in one of the ways indicated by your broker, bank or other nominee. You should instruct your broker to vote your shares in accordance with directions you provide.

Q:     What BRPM Stockholder vote is required for the approval of each proposal brought before the Special Meeting? What will happen if I fail to vote or abstain from voting on each proposal?

A:     The Business Combination Proposal.    Approval of the Business Combination Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock entitled to vote (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws) that are voted at the Special Meeting. The failure to vote, broker non-votes, and abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of the proposal. Our Sponsor and officers and directors have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Business Combination. The percentage of outstanding shares of BRPM Class B common stock held by our Sponsor that are obligated to vote in favor of the Business Combination, represents approximately 22% of the voting power of BRPM. Accordingly, in addition to the shares held by the Sponsor, BRPM would need 6,208,751 Public Shares, or approximately 36% of the 17,250,000 shares sold in BRPM’s initial public offering to be voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal in order for it to be approved, assuming all outstanding shares are voted on such proposal. If only a minimum quorum of shares of BRPM common stock, consisting of a bare majority of outstanding shares of BRPM common stock, is present at the Special Meeting, BRPM would need only 688,126 Public Shares, or approximately 4% of the Public Shares, to be voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal in order for it to be approved (provided that consummation of the Business Combination is conditioned upon, among other things approval of the condition precedent proposals and the requirement that BRPM have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 immediately prior to or upon consummation of the Business Combination).

The Binding Charter Proposals.    Approval of Binding Charter Proposal A requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of BRPM common stock entitled to vote (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws) at the Special Meeting. Approval of Binding Charter Proposal B requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of BRPM Class A common stock, voting separately as a single class. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “against” both of these proposals because an absolute majority of the outstanding shares is required for approval.

The Advisory Charter Proposals.    Approval of each of the Advisory Charter Proposals, each of which is a non-binding vote, requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock present (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting and representation by

13

Table of Contents

proxy) and entitled to vote thereupon (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws). The failure to vote, broker non-votes and abstentions have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

The Director Election Proposal.    Approval of the Director Election Proposal requires a plurality of the votes cast by BRPM Stockholders present in person (which would include presence at a virtual meeting) or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class. Accordingly, a BRPM Stockholder’s abstention, failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person (which would include presence at a virtual meeting) at the Special Meeting or a broker non-vote will have no effect on the outcome of Director Election Proposal.

The Stock Issuance Proposal.    Approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock present (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting and representation by proxy) and entitled to vote thereupon (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws). The failure to vote, broker non-votes and abstentions have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

The Incentive Plan Proposal.    Approval of the Incentive Plan Proposal requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock present (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting and representation by proxy) and entitled to vote thereupon (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws). The failure to vote, broker non-votes and abstentions have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

The ESPP Proposal.    Approval of the ESPP Proposal requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock present (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting and representation by proxy) and entitled to vote thereupon (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws). The failure to vote, broker non-votes and abstentions have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

The Adjournment Proposal.    Approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock present (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting and representation by proxy) and entitled to vote thereupon (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws). The failure to vote, broker non-votes and abstentions have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

Q:     What will FaZe’s securityholders receive in connection with the Business Combination?

A:     Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions set forth therein, at the Closing, each outstanding share of FaZe common stock (including shares of FaZe common stock issued as a result of the Company Conversion) will be automatically converted into the right to receive such number of shares of New FaZe common stock equal to the Exchange Ratio and such number of Earn-Out Shares equal to the Earn-Out Exchange Ratio (which Earn-Out Shares are subject to forfeiture following the completion of the Business Combination if certain price-based vesting conditions are not met during the five-year period beginning on the date that is 90 days after the Closing and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date). At the Effective Time of the Business Combination, each FaZe Restricted Stock Award that is outstanding and unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to any vesting that may occur in connection with the Merger) will be cancelled and converted into New FaZe Restricted Stock Awards relating to the number of shares of New FaZe common stock equal to the Per Share Merger Consideration. Further, at the Effective Time, each option outstanding under FaZe’s existing incentive plans will be assumed by New FaZe and converted into an option to purchase a number of shares of New FaZe common stock equal to the number of shares of FaZe common stock subject to such option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, and having an exercise price equal to the exercise price immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Exchange Ratio. Holders of Vested FaZe Options will also be entitled to receive a number of Earn-Out Shares equal to the number of Net Vested Company Option Shares underlying such Vested FaZe Options multiplied by the Earn-Out Exchange Ratio. See the section titled “The Merger Agreement” for more information.

__________

(1)      Includes 500,000 shares subscribed by the FaZe PIPE Investor in the PIPE Investment. Includes 6,440,827 Earn-Out Shares in the no redemptions scenario, 6,169,981 Earn-Out Shares in the Minimum Proceeds Condition (24.6%) redemptions scenario, 5,890,290 Earn-Out Shares in the 50% redemptions scenario, 5,615,030 Earn-Out Shares in the 75% redemptions scenario, and 5,339,757 Earn-Out Shares in the 100% redemptions scenario. Earn-Out Shares are subject to forfeiture if certain price-based vesting conditions are not met during the five-year period beginning on the date that is 90 days after the Closing and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date. Also includes, in each redemptions scenario, 29,203,555 shares of New FaZe common stock issued to FaZe Stockholders pursuant to the Company Conversion, 675,686 shares of New FaZe common stock issuable in respect of New FaZe Restricted Stock Awards, and 17,687,479 shares of New FaZe common stock issuable to FaZe Stockholders upon the cash exercise of New FaZe options that are vested as of the Closing or will be exercisable within 60 days of the Closing, assuming the Closing occurred on May 6, 2022.

(2)      Represents shares issuable upon the exercise of BRPM warrants. BRPM warrants are exercisable beginning on the later of 30 days following the Closing and February 23, 2022, for one share of BRPM Class A common stock and, following the consummation of the Business Combination, will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one share of New FaZe common stock in accordance with the terms of the warrants. In each redemptions scenario, assumes that all outstanding BRPM warrants are immediately exercised for cash after completion of the Business Combination.

(3)      Includes 2,200,000 shares subscribed by the Sponsor Related PIPE Investors in the PIPE Investment. Includes 2,156,250 Founder Shares subject to forfeiture if certain price-based vesting conditions are not met during the five-year period beginning on the date that is 90 days after the Closing and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date.

(4)      Excludes 500,000 shares subscribed by the FaZe PIPE Investor and 2,200,000 shares subscribed by the Sponsor Related PIPE Investors, respectively, in the PIPE Investment. Such shares are presented in the FaZe Stockholders and Sponsor and Related Parties lines, respectively.

(5)      This scenario assumes that 4,243,365 Public Shares, or approximately 24.6% of the Public Shares, are redeemed for an aggregate payment of approximately $42.4 million from the Trust Account, which is the maximum amount of redemptions that could occur and still satisfy the Minimum Proceeds Condition.

(6)      This scenario assumes that 8,625,000 Public Shares, or 50% of the Public Shares, are redeemed for an aggregate payment of approximately $86.3 million from the Trust Account, which is a redemptions scenario that could occur due to FaZe’s waiver of the Minimum Proceeds Condition.

(7)      This scenario assumes that 12,937,500 Public Shares, or 75% of the Public Shares, are redeemed for an aggregate payment of approximately $129.4 million from the Trust Account, which is a redemptions scenario that could occur due to FaZe’s waiver of the Minimum Proceeds Condition.

Table of Contents

(8)      This scenario assumes that all 17,250,000 Public Shares, or 100% of the Public Shares, are redeemed for an aggregate payment of approximately $172.5 million from the Trust Account, which is a redemptions scenario that could occur due to FaZe’s waiver of the Minimum Proceeds Condition.

(9)      Share ownership and voting power presented under each redemptions scenario in the table above are only presented for illustrative purposes. BRPM cannot predict how many of its Public Stockholders will exercise their right to have their Public Shares redeemed for cash. As a result, the redemption amount and the number of Public Shares redeemed in connection with the Business Combination may differ from the amounts presented above. As such, the ownership percentages of current BRPM and FaZe Stockholders may also differ from the presentation above if the actual redemptions are different from these assumptions. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Business Combination — The ability of our Public Stockholders to exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of our Public Shares may not allow us to complete the Business Combination, have sufficient cash available to fund New FaZe’s business or optimize the capital structure of New FaZe.”

Q:     How has the announcement of the Business Combination affected the trading price of the BRPM securities?

A:     On October 22, 2021, the trading date preceding the announcement of the Business Combination, the closing prices per share of the BRPM units, BRPM Class A common stock, and BRPM warrants as reported by Nasdaq were $10.00, $9.74, and $0.81, respectively. The closing prices per share of the BRPM units, BRPM Class A common stock, and BRPM warrants as reported on Nasdaq on May 18, 2022, were $10.00, $9.84, and $0.50, respectively. Holders of BRPM’s securities should obtain current market quotations for the securities. The market price of BRPM’s securities could vary at any time prior to Closing.

Q:     What happens to the funds deposited in the Trust Account after consummation of the Business Combination?

A:     A total of $172,500,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units, was placed in a Trust Account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. maintained by the Trustee. As of May 18, 2022, there were investments and cash held in the Trust Account of $172,611,069. These funds will not be released until the earlier of Closing or the redemption of our Public Shares if we are unable to complete an initial business combination by February 23, 2023 or any extended period of time that we may have to consummate an initial business combination as a result of an amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (an “Extension Period”), although we may withdraw the interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account to pay taxes.

Q:     What happens if a substantial number of the Public Stockholders vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and exercise their redemption right?

A:     BRPM Stockholders who vote in favor of the Business Combination may also nevertheless exercise their redemption rights. Accordingly, the Business Combination may be consummated even though the funds available from the Trust Account and the number of Public Stockholders are reduced as a result of redemptions by Public Stockholders. The consummation of the Business Combination is conditioned upon, among other things, BRPM having an aggregate cash amount of at least $218,000,000 available at Closing from the Trust Account (after giving effect to redemptions and payment of BRPM Transaction Expenses and FaZe Transaction Expenses) and PIPE Investment (the “Minimum Proceeds Condition”). In connection with the Term Loan, FaZe waived the Minimum Proceeds Condition on March 10, 2022. With fewer Public Shares and Public Stockholders, the trading market for New FaZe common stock may be less liquid than the market for BRPM Class A common stock was prior to consummation of the Business Combination and New FaZe may not be able to meet the listing standards for Nasdaq or another national securities exchange. In addition, with less funds available from the Trust Account, the working capital infusion from the Trust Account into FaZe’s business will be reduced. As a result, the proceeds will be greater in the event that no Public Stockholders exercise redemption rights with respect to their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account as opposed to the scenario in which BRPM’s Public Stockholders exercise the maximum allowed redemption rights. If the Trust Account proceeds that would be available to FaZe following the redemption deadline are less than $218 million (representing the amount of cash required by the Minimum Proceeds Condition, which has been waived by FaZe), New FaZe will have less cash available to pursue its anticipated growth strategies and new initiatives, including FaZe’s acquisition strategy. As a result, New FaZe’s results of operations and financial condition may be worse than projected.

Q:     What amendments will be made to the Current Charter?

A:     We are asking BRPM Stockholders to approve the Proposed Charter that will be effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination. The Proposed Charter provides for various changes that the BRPM Board believes are necessary to address the needs of the post-Business Combination company, including, among other things: (i) changing BRPM’s name to “FaZe Holdings Inc.”; (ii) eliminating the BRPM Class B common stock; (iii) increasing the total number of shares of New FaZe’s capital stock to 501,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of 500,000,000 shares of New FaZe common stock and 1,000,000 shares of New FaZe preferred stock, as opposed to 111,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of 100,000,000 shares of BRPM Class A common stock and 10,000,000 shares of BRPM Class B common stock and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock; (iv) eliminating stockholders’ ability to act by written consent; (v) changing the required vote to amend certain provisions of the Proposed Charter; (vi) changing the classification of the New FaZe Board from two classes to three classes, with each class elected for staggered term, as well as with each class consisting, as nearly as may be possible, of one third of the total number of directors constituting the whole board; and (vii) eliminating certain provisions specific to BRPM’s status as a blank check company.

Pursuant to Delaware law and the Current Charter, BRPM is required to submit the Binding Charter Proposals to BRPM Stockholders for approval. For additional information, see the section entitled “The Binding Charter Proposals.” Pursuant to SEC rules, BRPM is required to provide stockholders with an opportunity to vote upon the material differences between the Proposed Charter and the Current Charter, as separate unbundled proposals. For additional information, see the section entitled “The Advisory Charter Proposals.”

Q:     What material negative factors did the BRPM Board consider in connection with the Business Combination?

A:     Although the BRPM Board believes that the acquisition of FaZe will provide BRPM Stockholders with an opportunity to participate in a combined company with significant growth potential, market share and a well-known brand, the BRPM Board did consider certain potentially material negative factors in arriving at that conclusion, such as the risk that BRPM Stockholders would not approve the Business Combination and the risk that significant numbers of BRPM Stockholders would exercise their redemption rights. In addition, during the course of BRPM management’s evaluation of FaZe’s operating business and its public company potential, management conducted detailed due diligence on certain potential challenges. Some factors that both BRPM management and BRPM Board considered were: (i) risks related to FaZe’s business, including the fact that FaZe has incurred and expects to continue to incur operating losses, and that these conditions have raised substantial doubt about FaZe’s ability to continue as a going concern, (ii) the fact that FaZe’s business depends on the strength of the FaZe brand, (iii) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its management, key employees and talents, (iv) competition in FaZe’s industry, (v) risks associated with successful implementation

18

Table of Contents

of FaZe’s long term business plan and strategy and FaZe realizing the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination on the timeline expected or at all, (vi) the corporate governance provisions of the Proposed Charter and the effect of those provisions on the governance of New FaZe, (vii) the inherent limitations in the due diligence review of FaZe conducted by the BRPM management team and BRPM’s outside advisors and that BRPM did not obtain a fairness opinion from an independent investment banking firm, (viii) the potential inability to complete the Merger, (ix) the possibility of litigation challenging the Business Combination, and (x) that some of BRPM’s officers and directors may have interests in the Business Combination as individuals that are in addition to, and that may be different from, the interests of BRPM Stockholders.

These factors are discussed in greater detail in the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Recommendation of the BRPM Board and Reasons for the Business Combination,” as well as in the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

Q:     Does the BRPM Board have interests in the Business Combination that differ from or are in addition to the interests of BRPM Stockholders generally?

A:     Yes. The Sponsor and BRPM’s officers and directors have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, the interests of BRPM Stockholders generally. The BRPM Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in approving the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination and in determining to recommend that the Merger Agreement and Business Combination be approved by the BRPM Stockholders. See “Interests of BRPM’s Directors and Officers in the Business Combination” for more information.

Q:     Did the BRPM Board obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in determining whether or not to proceed with the Merger?

A:     No. The BRPM Board did not obtain a fairness opinion with respect to the consideration to be paid in the Merger. Accordingly, investors will be relying solely on the judgment of the BRPM Board and BRPM’s advisors in valuing FaZe’s business.

The officers and directors of BRPM have substantial experience in evaluating the operating and financial merits of companies from a wide range of industries. Furthermore, in analyzing the Business Combination, the BRPM Board conducted significant due diligence on FaZe. Based on the foregoing, the BRPM Board concluded that its members’ experience and backgrounds enabled it to make the necessary analyses and determinations regarding the Business Combination, including that the Business Combination was fair from a financial perspective to its stockholders and that FaZe’s fair market value was at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding taxes payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the Business Combination. There can be no assurance, however, that the BRPM Board was correct in its assessment of the Business Combination. For a complete discussion of the factors utilized by the BRPM Board in approving the Business Combination, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal.”

The lack of a third-party fairness opinion may lead an increased number of stockholders to vote against the proposed Business Combination or seek to redeem their Public Shares for cash, which could potentially impact BRPM’s ability to consummate the Business Combination or adversely affect BRPM’s liquidity following the consummation of the Business Combination.

Q:     Do I have redemption rights?

A:     If you are a Public Stockholder, you have the right to request that BRPM redeem all or a portion of your Public Shares for cash, provided that you follow the procedures and deadlines described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus under the heading “The Special Meeting — Redemption Rights.” Public Stockholders may elect to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares even if they vote for the Business Combination Proposal. We sometimes refer to these rights to elect to redeem all or a portion of the Public Shares into a pro rata portion of the cash held in the Trust Account as “redemption rights.” If you wish to exercise your redemption rights, please see the answer to the next question: “How do I exercise my redemption rights?

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such Public Stockholder or any other person with whom such Public Stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its Public Shares with respect to more

19

than an aggregate of 20% of the Public Shares. Accordingly, if a Public Stockholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 20% of the Public Shares, then any such shares in excess of that 20% limit would not be redeemed for cash without the prior consent of BRPM.

At the time of our initial public offering, our Sponsor entered into the Insiders Letter Agreement, pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to waive its redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares and any other shares of BRPM common stock held by it in connection with the completion of a business combination. Our Sponsor did not receive separate consideration for the waiver of redemption rights.

Q:     How do I exercise my redemption rights?

A:     If you are a Public Stockholder and wish to exercise your right to redeem your Public Shares, you must:

(i)     (a) hold Public Shares or (b) hold Public Shares through units and elect to separate your units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares; and

(ii)    prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 13, 2022 (two business days prior to the scheduled date of the Special Meeting), (a) submit a written request, including the legal name, phone number and address of the beneficial owner of the shares for which redemption is requested, to the Transfer Agent that BRPM redeem your Public Shares for cash and (b) deliver your Public Shares to the Transfer Agent, physically or electronically through DTC.

The address of the Transfer Agent is listed under the question “Whom do I call if I have questions about the Special Meeting or the Business Combination?” below.

Holders of units must elect to separate the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares. If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants, or if a holder holds units registered in its own name, the holder must contact the Transfer Agent directly and instruct them to do so. The redemption rights include the requirement that a holder must identify itself in writing as a beneficial holder and provide its legal name, phone number and address to the Transfer Agent in order to validly redeem.

Any Public Stockholder will be entitled to request that their Public Shares be redeemed for a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares. For illustrative purposes, as of May 26, 2022, the record date, this would have amounted to approximately $10.01 per Public Share. However, the proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of our creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of our Public Stockholders, regardless of whether such Public Stockholders vote for or against the Business Combination Proposal. Therefore, the per share distribution from the Trust Account in such a situation may be less than originally anticipated due to such claims. Your vote on any proposal other than the Business Combination Proposal will have no impact on the amount you will receive upon exercise of your redemption rights. It is anticipated that the funds to be distributed to Public Stockholders electing to redeem their Public Shares will be distributed promptly after the consummation of the Business Combination.

If you are a holder of Public Shares, you may exercise your redemption rights by submitting your request in writing to the Transfer Agent at the address listed under the question “Whom do I call if I have questions about the Special Meeting or the Business Combination?” below.

Any request for redemption, once made by a holder of Public Shares, may be withdrawn at any time up to the deadline for submitting redemption requests, which is two business days prior to the scheduled date of the Special Meeting, and, thereafter, with our consent, until the Closing. If you deliver your shares for redemption to the Transfer Agent and later decide prior to the deadline for submitting redemption requests not to elect redemption, you may request that BRPM instruct the Transfer Agent to return the shares to you (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting the Transfer Agent at the phone number or address listed at the end of this section.

Table of Contents

Any corrected or changed written exercise of redemption rights must be received by BRPM’s secretary prior to the deadline for submitting redemption requests. No request for redemption will be honored unless the holder’s stock has been delivered (either physically or electronically) to the Transfer Agent prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 13, 2022 (two business days prior to the scheduled date of the Special Meeting).

If you are a holder of Public Shares and you exercise your redemption rights, it will not result in the loss of any BRPM warrants that you may hold.

Q:     If I am a holder of units, can I exercise redemption rights with respect to my units?

A:     No. Holders of outstanding units must elect to separate the units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Public Shares. If you hold your units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, you must notify your broker or bank that you elect to separate the units into the underlying Public Shares and Public Warrants, or if you hold units registered in your own name, you must contact the Transfer Agent, directly and instruct them to do so. The redemption rights include the requirement that a holder must identify itself in writing as a beneficial holder and provide its legal name, phone number and address to the Transfer Agent in order to validly redeem. If you fail to cause your units to be separated and delivered to the Transfer Agent, BRPM’s transfer agent, prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 13, 2022 (two business days prior to the scheduled date of the Special Meeting), you will not be able to exercise your redemption rights with respect to your Public Shares.

Q:     If I am a holder of warrants, can I exercise redemption rights with respect to my warrants?

A:     No. Holders of BRPM warrants will not have redemption rights with respect to such warrants. For instance, assuming that no more than 4,243,365 Public Shares, representing approximately 24.6% of the Public Shares issued in connection with the IPO, are redeemed for an aggregate payment of approximately $42.4 million from the Trust Account, which is a potential amount of redemptions, and assuming that each redeeming Public Stockholder holds one-third of one Public Warrant for each Public Share being redeemed (representing the number of Public Warrants included in each BRPM unit) and using the closing warrant price on Nasdaq of $0.60 as of May 23, 2022, the aggregate fair value of BRPM warrants that can be retained by redeeming stockholders is approximately $848,673. The actual market price of the warrants may be higher or lower on the date that warrant holders seek to sell such warrants. Additionally, BRPM cannot assure the holders of warrants that they will be able to sell their warrants in the open market as there may not be sufficient liquidity in such securities when warrantholders wish to sell their warrants. Further, while the level of redemptions of Public Shares will not directly change the value of the warrants because the warrants will remain outstanding regardless of the level of redemptions, as redemptions of Public Shares increase, the holder of warrants who exercises such warrants will ultimately own a greater interest in New FaZe because there would be fewer shares outstanding overall. See “Risk Factors — Future sales of shares by existing stockholders could cause New FaZe’s stock price to decline.”

Q:     What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising my redemption rights?

A:     The U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising your redemption rights depend on your particular facts and circumstances. It is possible that you may be treated as selling your Public Shares for cash and, as a result, recognize capital gain or capital loss. It is also possible that the redemption may be treated as a distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes depending on the amount of Public Shares that you own or are deemed to own (including through the ownership of Public Warrants). For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of an exercise of redemption rights, see “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.

TAX MATTERS ARE COMPLICATED, AND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF EXERCISING YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS WILL DEPEND ON THE FACTS OF YOUR OWN SITUATION. YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE SPECIFIC TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS TO YOU IN YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

Q:     What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger?

A:     The Merger is intended to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. In connection with the filing of this registration statement, we have received an opinion of counsel, based on customary assumptions, customary assumptions, representations and covenants, and assumptions, representations and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement, this proxy statement/prospectus, and certificates of officers of FaZe and BRPM, including an assumption regarding the completion of the Merger in the manner contemplated by the Merger Agreement, to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization.” The obligations of FaZe and BRPM to complete the Merger are not conditioned on the receipt of such opinion from legal counsel. No ruling has been, or will be, sought by BRPM or FaZe from the IRS with respect to the Merger and there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the qualification of the Merger as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code or that a court would not sustain such a challenge. Accordingly, if the IRS or a court determines that the Merger does not qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code (and does not alternatively qualify as a generally tax-free transaction for U.S. holders of FaZe common stock under Section 351 of the Code), the Merger would be a fully taxable transaction to U.S. holders of FaZe common stock for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For additional information, please read the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

TAX MATTERS ARE COMPLICATED AND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER TO FAZE STOCKHOLDERS WILL DEPEND ON THE FACTS OF THEIR OWN SITUATION. FAZE STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS TO FULLY UNDERSTAND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S. INCOME AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

Q:     How do the Public Warrants differ from the Private Placement Warrants and what are the related risks for any Public Warrant holders post Business Combination?

The Public Warrants are identical to the Private Placement Warrants in material terms and provisions, except that the Private Placement Warrants will not be redeemable by New FaZe so long as they are held by the Sponsor or any of its permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or any of its permitted transferees, they will be redeemable by New FaZe and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Placement Warrants, including the New FaZe common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants (except to certain permitted transferees), until 30 days after the Closing of the initial business combination. Further, the Private Placement Warrants are not exercisable more than five years from the effective date of the registration statement for BRPM’s initial public offering in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8).

Following the Closing of the Business Combination, New FaZe may redeem your Public Warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making such warrants worthless. New FaZe will have the ability to redeem outstanding Public Warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant, provided that the closing price of New FaZe common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant) for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to proper notice of such redemption, provided that certain other conditions are met. If and when the warrants become redeemable, New FaZe may not exercise its redemption right unless there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of New FaZe common stock underlying such warrants.

We are not registering the New FaZe common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants at this time. However, the Warrant Agreement requires us to file a registration statement to register such shares as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the Closing, to cause such registration statement to become effective within 60 business days after the Closing, and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed. If a registration statement covering the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the Closing, warrantholders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption.

Table of Contents

In the event we determine to redeem the warrants, holders would be notified of such redemption as described in the Warrant Agreement. New FaZe would be required to fix a date for the redemption and mail a notice of redemption not less than 30 days prior to the redemption date to the registered holders of the warrants at their last addresses as they appear on the registration books. In addition, beneficial owners of the redeemable warrants will be notified of such redemption via New FaZe’s posting of the redemption notice to DTC.

Redemption of the outstanding Public Warrants could force you (i) to exercise your Public Warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for you to do so, (ii) to sell your Public Warrants at the then-current market price when you might otherwise wish to hold your Public Warrants or (iii) to accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding Public Warrants are called for redemption, is likely to be substantially less than the market value of your Public Warrants. None of the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by us so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.

See “Description of New FaZe Securities — Warrants — Public Stockholders’ Warrants” and “Risk Factors — New FaZe may redeem the Public Warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your warrants worthless”.

Q:     How does the BRPM Board recommend that I vote?

A:     The BRPM Board recommends that the BRPM Stockholders vote “FOR” the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the approval of both of the Binding Charter Proposals, “FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of each of the Advisory Charter Proposals, “FOR” the approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the Incentive Plan Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the ESPP Proposal and “FOR” the approval of the Adjournment Proposal. For more information regarding how BRPM Board that BRPM Stockholders vote, see the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Recommendation of the BRPM Board and Reasons for the Business Combination”.

Q:     What will happen to my BRPM common stock as a result of the Business Combination?

A:     If the Business Combination is completed, (i) each share of BRPM Class A common stock will remain outstanding and continue as a share of New FaZe common stock, and (ii) each share of BRPM Class B common stock will be converted on a one-to-one basis into a share of New FaZe common stock. See the section entitled “The Merger Agreement — Merger Consideration”.

Q:     How does our Sponsor intend to vote its shares?

A:     In connection with our initial public offering the Sponsor entered into the Insiders Letter Agreement to vote all shares of BRPM common stock owned by it in favor of the Business Combination Proposal, and in connection with the Merger Agreement the Sponsor entered into the Sponsor Support Agreement which requires the Sponsor to vote all of its voting equity securities in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and all other proposals being presented at the Special Meeting. Our Sponsor owns approximately 22% of our issued and outstanding shares of BRPM common stock. Accordingly, in addition to the shares held by the Sponsor, BRPM would need 6,208,751 Public Shares, or approximately 36% of the 17,250,000 shares sold in BRPM’s initial public offering

23

Table of Contents

to be voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal in order for it to be approved, assuming all outstanding shares are voted on such proposal. If only a minimum quorum of shares of BRPM common stock, consisting of a bare majority of outstanding shares of BRPM common stock, is present at the Special Meeting, BRPM would need only 688,126 Public Shares, or approximately 4% of the Public Shares, to be voted in favor of the Business Combination Proposal in order for it to be approved (provided that consummation of the Business Combination is conditioned upon, among other things approval of the condition precedent proposals and the requirement that BRPM have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 immediately prior to or upon consummation of the Business Combination).

Q:     May our Sponsor and our officers and directors purchase Public Shares or Public Warrants prior to the Special Meeting?

A:     At any time prior to the Special Meeting, during a period when they are not then aware of any material nonpublic information regarding BRPM or its securities and otherwise, in accordance with the applicable SEC rules, the Sponsor, FaZe and/or its affiliates may purchase shares and/or warrants from investors, or they may enter into transactions with such investors and others to provide them with incentives to acquire Public Shares or vote their Public Shares in favor of the Business Combination Proposal. Any Public Shares purchased by the Sponsor or its affiliates would be purchased at a price no higher than the redemption price for the Public Shares. Any Public Shares so purchased would not be voted by the Sponsor or its affiliates at the Special Meeting and would not be redeemable by the Sponsor or its affiliates. The purpose of such stock purchases and other transactions would be to increase the likelihood of obtaining BRPM Stockholder Approval, to minimize redemptions of Public Shares, and to ensure that BRPM has at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets immediately prior to or upon consummation of the Business Combination, where it appears that such requirements would otherwise not be met. While the exact nature of any such incentives has not been determined as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, they might include, without limitation, arrangements to protect such investors or holders against potential loss in value of their shares, including the granting of put options and the transfer to such investors or holders of shares or rights owned by the Sponsor for nominal value.

Entering into any such arrangements may have a depressive effect on Public Shares. For example, as a result of these arrangements, an investor or holder may have the ability to effectively purchase shares at a price lower than market and may therefore be more likely to sell the shares it owns, either prior to or immediately after the Special Meeting.

If such transactions are effected, the consequence could be to cause the Business Combination to be approved in circumstances where such approval could not otherwise be obtained. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there have been no such discussions and no agreements to such effect have been entered into with any such investor or holder. BRPM will file a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose arrangements entered into or purchases made by any of the aforementioned persons, which report will include the number of shares or warrants purchased, the purchase price, the purpose of the purchase, the impact that such purposes would have on the likelihood that the Business Combination Proposal will be approved, the nature of the security holders who sold to the Sponsor or its affiliates, and the number of Public Shares then redeemed.

Q:     Who is entitled to vote at the Special Meeting?

A:     The BRPM Board has fixed May 26, 2022 as the record date for the Special Meeting. All holders of record of BRPM common stock as of the close of business on the record date are entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Special Meeting, provided that those shares remain outstanding on the date of the Special Meeting. Physical attendance at the Special Meeting is not required to vote. See the section entitled “Questions and Answers About the Business Combination and the Special Meeting — How can I vote my shares without attending the Special Meeting?” on page 25 for instructions on how to vote your shares of BRPM common stock without attending the Special Meeting.

Q:     How many votes do I have?

A:     Each BRPM Stockholder of record is entitled to one vote for each share of BRPM common stock held by such holder as of the close of business on the record date. As of the close of business on the record date, there were 22,082,500 outstanding shares of BRPM common stock.

Table of Contents

Q:     What constitutes a quorum for the Special Meeting?

A:     A quorum is the minimum number of stockholders necessary to hold a valid meeting.

A quorum will exist at the Special Meeting with respect to each matter other than Binding Charter Proposal B if the holders of a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of BRPM common stock as of the record date are present in person (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting) or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting. A quorum will exist at the Special Meeting with respect to Binding Charter Proposal B if the holders of a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of BRPM Class A common stock as of the record date are present in person (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting) or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting. All shares represented by proxy are counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum. Abstentions will count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, but broker non-votes will not count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum.

Q:     Where will the New FaZe common stock that BRPM Stockholders receive in the Business Combination be publicly traded?

A:     We intend to apply to list the shares of New FaZe common stock (including the New FaZe common stock issued in connection with the Business Combination) on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “FAZE” and the New FaZe warrants under the ticker symbol “FAZEW”. It is a condition to the consummation of the Merger that the shares of New FaZe common stock to be issued in the Merger be approved for listing on Nasdaq subject only to the receipt of official notice of listing from Nasdaq and, if requested by Nasdaq, the delivery of evidence that BRPM complied with the minimum round lot shareholder requirement within 15 calendar days of the listing date, but there can be no assurance that such listing condition will be met. If such listing condition is not met, the Merger will not be consummated unless the listing condition is waived by the parties to the Merger Agreement.

Q:     What happens if the Business Combination is not completed?

A:     If the Merger Agreement is not approved by BRPM Stockholders or if the Business Combination is not completed for any other reason by 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on July 25, 2022, the Outside Date under the Merger Agreement, then we will either seek an extension of time to complete the Business Combination or seek to consummate an alternative initial business combination prior to February 23, 2023 or during any Extension Period. If we do not consummate an initial business combination by February 23, 2023 or during any Extension Period, we will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and redeem our Public Shares and liquidate the Trust Account, in which case our Public Stockholders may only receive approximately $10.01 per share and the BRPM warrants will expire worthless.

Q:     How can I attend and vote my shares at the Special Meeting?

A:     BRPM common stock held directly in your name as the stockholder of record of such BRPM common stock as of the close of business on May 26, 2022, the record date, may be voted electronically at the Special Meeting. If you choose to attend the Special Meeting, you will need to visit https://www.cstproxy.com/brileyprincipal150mergercorp/2022, and enter the control number found on your proxy card, voting instruction form or notice you previously received. You may vote during the Special Meeting by following instructions available on the meeting website during the meeting. If your shares are held in “street name” by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to attend and vote at the Special Meeting, you will not be permitted to attend and vote electronically at the Special Meeting unless you first obtain a legal proxy issued in your name from the record owner. To request a legal proxy, please contact your broker, bank or other nominee holder of record. It is suggested you do so in a timely manner to ensure receipt of your legal proxy prior to the Special Meeting.

Q:     How can I vote my shares without attending the Special Meeting?

A:     If you are a stockholder of record of BRPM common stock as of the close of business on May 26, 2022, the record date, you can vote by mail by following the instructions provided in the enclosed proxy card.

Please note that if you hold your shares in “street name,” which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or nominee, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. In this regard, you must provide the broker, bank or nominee with instructions on how to vote your shares, or otherwise follow the instructions provided by your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee.

Q:     What is a proxy?

A:     A proxy is a legal designation of another person to vote the stock you own. If you are a stockholder of record of BRPM common stock as of the close of business on the record date, and you vote by phone, by internet or by signing, dating and returning your proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope, you designate two of BRPM’s officers as your proxies at the Special Meeting, each with full power to act without the other and with full power of substitution. These two officers are Bryant Riley and Daniel Shribman.

Q:     What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

A:     If your shares of BRPM common stock are registered directly in your name with Continental you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and access to proxy materials is being provided directly to you. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, then you are considered the beneficial owner of those shares, which are considered to be held in street name. Access to proxy materials is being provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee who is considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares.

Direct holders (stockholders of record).    For BRPM common stock held directly by you, please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card (or cast your vote by telephone or internet as provided on each proxy card) or otherwise follow the voting instructions provided in this proxy statement/prospectus in order to ensure that all of your shares of BRPM common stock are voted.

Shares in “street name.”    For BRPM common stock held in “street name” through a bank, brokerage firm or other nominee, you should follow the procedures provided by your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee to vote your shares.

Q:     If a BRPM Stockholder gives a proxy, how will the BRPM common stock covered by the proxy be voted?

A:     If you provide a proxy by returning the applicable enclosed proxy card, the individuals named on the enclosed proxy card will vote your shares of BRPM common stock in the way that you indicate when providing your proxy in respect of the BRPM common stock you hold. When completing the proxy card, you may specify whether your shares of BRPM common stock should be voted FOR or AGAINST (or WITHHOLD with respect to the Director Election proposal), or should be abstained from voting on, all, some or none of the specific items of business to come before the Special Meeting.

Q:     How will my BRPM common stock be voted if I return a blank proxy?

A:     If you sign, date and return your proxy and do not indicate how you want your shares of BRPM common stock to be voted, then your shares of BRPM common stock will be voted “FOR” the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the approval of both of the Binding Charter Proposals, “FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of each of the Advisory Charter Proposals, “FOR” the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the Incentive Plan Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the ESPP Proposal and “FOR” the approval of the Adjournment Proposal.

Q:     Can I change my vote after I have submitted my proxy?

A:     Yes. If you are a stockholder of record of BRPM common stock as of the close of business on the record date, you can change or revoke your proxy before it is voted at the meeting in one of the following ways:

        submit a new proxy card bearing a later date;

        give written notice of your revocation to BRPM’s Corporate Secretary, which notice must be received by BRPM’s Corporate Secretary prior to the vote at the Special Meeting; or

        vote electronically at the Special Meeting by visiting https://www.cstproxy.com/brileyprincipal150mergercorp/2022 and entering the control number found on your proxy card, voting instruction form or notice you previously received. Please note that your attendance at the Special Meeting will not alone serve to revoke your proxy.

If your shares are held in “street name” by your broker, bank or another nominee as of the close of business on the record date, you must follow the instructions of your broker, bank or other nominee to revoke or change your voting instructions.

Q:     Where can I find the voting results of the Special Meeting?

A:     The preliminary voting results are expected to be announced at the Special Meeting. In addition, within four business days following certification of the final voting results, BRPM will file the final voting results of its Special Meeting with the SEC in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Q:     Are BRPM Stockholders able to exercise dissenters’ rights or appraisal rights with respect to the matters being voted upon at the Special Meeting?

A:     No. BRPM Stockholders are not entitled to exercise dissenters’ rights or appraisal rights under Delaware law in connection with the Business Combination. Dissenters’ rights or appraisal rights are unavailable under Delaware law in connection with the Business Combination to holders of BRPM Class A common stock because it is currently listed on a national securities exchange and such holders are not required to receive any consideration (other than continuing to hold their shares of BRPM Class A common stock, which will become an equal number of shares of New FaZe common stock after giving effect to the Business Combination). Holders of BRPM Class A common stock may vote against the Business Combination Proposal and/or redeem their BRPM Class A common stock if they are not in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement or the Business Combination. Dissenters’ rights or appraisal rights are unavailable under Delaware law in connection with the Business Combination to holders of BRPM Class B common stock because they have agreed to vote in favor of the Business Combination.

Q:     Are there any risks that I should consider as a BRPM Stockholder in deciding how to vote or whether to exercise my redemption rights?

A:     Yes. You should read and carefully consider the risk factors set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors”. You also should read and carefully consider the risk factors of BRPM and FaZe contained in the documents that are incorporated by reference herein.

Q:     What happens if I sell my BRPM common stock before the Special Meeting?

A:     The record date for BRPM Stockholders entitled to vote at the Special Meeting is earlier than the date of the Special Meeting. If you transfer your shares of BRPM common stock before the record date, you will not be entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. If you transfer your shares of BRPM common stock after the record date but before the Special Meeting, you will, unless special arrangements are made, retain your right to vote at the Special Meeting but will transfer the right to hold or redeem New FaZe shares to the person to whom you transfer your shares.

Q:     When is the Business Combination expected to be completed?

A:     Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the Closing conditions described in the section entitled “The Merger Agreement — Conditions to Closing”, including the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the BRPM Stockholders at the Special Meeting, the Business Combination is expected to close by July 2022. However, it is possible that factors outside the control of both BRPM and FaZe could result in the Business Combination being completed at a later time, or not being completed at all.

Q:     Who will solicit and pay the cost of soliciting proxies?

A:     BRPM has engaged a professional proxy solicitation firm, DF King, to assist in soliciting proxies for the Special Meeting.

Table of Contents

The following diagrams illustrate in simplified terms the current structure of BRPM and FaZe and the expected structure of New FaZe upon the Closing.

The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement Merger Consideration to FaZe Stockholders

BRPM has agreed to issue approximately 50,353,646 shares of New FaZe common stock at a deemed per share price of $10.00. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each holder of shares of FaZe common stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (including shares of FaZe common stock issued as a result of the Company Conversion) will be entitled to receive, in the form of a number of shares of New FaZe common stock, a portion of the Aggregate Equity Value Consideration equal to (i) the Exchange Ratio multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of FaZe common stock held by such holder as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, with fractional shares rounded to the nearest whole share. BRPM presently estimates that the Exchange Ratio will be approximately 2.27.

BRPM has also agreed to issue approximately 6,440,827 shares of New FaZe common stock (the “Earn-Out Shares”) in the no redemptions scenario (or 6,169,981 Earn-Out Shares in the Minimum Proceeds Condition (24.6%) redemptions scenario, 5,890,290 Earn-Out Shares in the 50% redemptions scenario, 5,615,030, Earn-Out Shares in the 75% redemptions scenario, and 5,339,757 Earn-Out Shares in the 100% redemptions scenario), which Earn-Out Shares will be subject to vesting as described below. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the holders of FaZe common stock (including shares of FaZe common stock issued as a result of the Company Conversion and shares subject to the FaZe Restricted Stock Awards) and Vested FaZe Options as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be entitled to receive in the form of a number of shares of New FaZe common stock, a portion of the Aggregate Earn-Out Consideration equal to (i) the Earn-Out Exchange Ratio multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of FaZe common stock held by such holder as of immediately prior to the Effective Time or in the case of Vested FaZe Options, the number of Net Vested Company Option Shares, with fractional shares rounded to the nearest whole share. BRPM presently estimates that the Earn-Out Exchange Ratio will be approximately 0.22, assuming no redemptions of Public Shares.

Table of Contents

The Earn-Out Shares will be subject to vesting or forfeiture as follows:

(i)     If, at any time during the period commencing 90 days after the Closing Date and ending on the date that is five years after the Closing Date (the “Earn-Out Period”), the VWAP per share of New FaZe common stock at any point during the trading hours of a Trading Day is greater than or equal to $12.00 for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30 consecutive Trading Days (the date when the foregoing is first satisfied, the “First FaZe Earn-out Achievement Date”), the first one-third of the Earn-Out Shares shall immediately vest;

(ii)    If, at any time during the Earn-Out Period, the VWAP per share of New FaZe common stock at any point during the trading hours of a Trading Day is greater than or equal to $14.00 for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30 consecutive Trading Days (the date when the foregoing is first satisfied, the “Second FaZe Earn-out Achievement Date”), the second one-third of the Earn-Out Shares shall immediately vest; and

(iii)   If, at any time during the Earn-Out Period, the VWAP per share of New FaZe common stock at any point during the trading hours of a Trading Day is greater than or equal to $16.00 for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30 consecutive Trading Days (the date when the foregoing is first satisfied, the “Third FaZe Earn-out Achievement Date”), the third one-third of the Earn-Out Shares shall immediately vest

The vesting period is subject to acceleration in the event of a Change of Control during the Earn-Out Period that results in the holders of New FaZe common stock receiving a price per share that is greater than or equal to one or more of the applicable VWAPs per share above, and such Change of Control is subsequently consummated, as described in more detail in the section of this proxy statement/prospectus titled “The Merger Agreement — Merger Consideration”.

For the avoidance of doubt, the maximum Aggregate Earn-Out Consideration for the holders of FaZe common stock and FaZe Options is 6% of the sum of (i) the total number of shares of New FaZe common stock that are issued and outstanding as of immediately after the Closing and (ii) the total number of shares of New FaZe common stock equal to the product of the total number of Net Vested Company Option Shares calculated as of immediately prior to the Closing and the Exchange Ratio.

Lock-Up

The Proposed Bylaws will provide that the New FaZe common stock issued as consideration to FaZe Stockholders in the Business Combination and issuable to directors, officers and employees of FaZe or its subsidiaries upon the settlement or exercise of restricted stock awards, stock options or other equity awards outstanding as of immediately following the Closing in respect of FaZe Awards that were outstanding immediately prior to Closing, will be subject to a six month lock-up, subject to certain exceptions described in more detail in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Treatment of FaZe Awards

Immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Accelerated FaZe Options will become vested as of the Effective Time. Effective as of five days prior to, and conditioned upon the occurrence of the Effective Time, each holder of a Vested FaZe Option intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code will be entitled to exercise in full by providing the Company with a notice of exercise and full payment of the applicable exercise price in accordance with the terms of the applicable Company Incentive Plan and related award agreement.

Each FaZe Option that is then outstanding (whether or not vested) will be converted into the right to receive an option relating to New FaZe common stock on the same terms and conditions as are in effect with respect to such FaZe Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (including with respect to vesting and termination-related provisions), except that (i) such New FaZe Option will relate to such number of shares of New FaZe common stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) as is equal to (A) the number of shares of FaZe common stock subject to such FaZe Option multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio, and (ii) the exercise price per share of such New FaZe Option will be equal to the quotient of (A) the exercise price per share of such FaZe Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio (the exercise price per share, as so determined, being rounded up to the nearest full cent). In addition, each Vested FaZe Option will have the right to receive a portion of the Aggregate Earn-Out Consideration.

31

Table of Contents

At the Effective Time, each FaZe Restricted Stock Award that is outstanding and unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into a New FaZe Restricted Stock Award covering a number of shares of New FaZe common stock equal to the Per Share Merger Consideration (which includes a portion of the Aggregate Earn-Out Consideration).

Conditions to the Completion of the Business Combination

The Closing is subject to certain customary conditions, including, among other things: (i) approvals by BRPM Stockholders and FaZe’s stockholders of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the expiration or termination of the waiting period (or any extension thereof) applicable under the HSR Act (the waiting period expired on December 6, 2021); (iii) the Minimum Proceeds Condition; (iv) that BRPM has not received valid redemption requests (that have not subsequently been withdrawn) that would require it to redeem BRPM Class A common stock in an amount that would cause BRPM not to have at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) immediately prior to or upon the Closing; (v) effectiveness of the Registration Statement; (vi) the accuracy of the representations and warranties, covenants and agreements of FaZe and BRPM, respectively, subject to customary materiality qualifications; (vii) the absence of any material adverse effect that is continuing with respect to FaZe and BRPM, respectively, between the date of the Merger Agreement and the date of the Closing; (viii) the absence of any governmental order, statute, rule or regulation enjoining or prohibiting the consummation of the Business Combination. See the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal.

Special Meeting of BRPM Stockholders, Quorum and Required Vote

The Special Meeting will convene on July 15, 2022 at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, in virtual format. Stockholders may attend, vote and examine the list of BRPM Stockholders entitled to vote at the Special Meeting by visiting https://www.cstproxy.com/brileyprincipal150mergercorp/2022 and entering the control number found on their proxy card, voting instruction form or notice they previously received. The purpose of the Special Meeting is to consider and vote on the Business Combination Proposal, the Binding Charter Proposals, the Advisory Charter Proposals, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Plan Proposal, the ESPP Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal.

Approval of the condition precedent proposals is a condition to the obligation of BRPM to complete the Business Combination.

Only holders of record of issued and outstanding shares of BRPM common stock as of the close of business on May 26, 2022, the record date for the Special Meeting, are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Special Meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the Special Meeting. You may cast one vote for each share of BRPM common stock that you owned as of the close of business on that record date.

Quorum

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will exist at the Special Meeting with respect to each matter other than Binding Charter Proposal B if the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of BRPM common stock as of the record date are present in person (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting) or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting. A quorum will exist at the Special Meeting with respect to Binding Charter Proposal B if the holders of a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of BRPM Class A common stock as of the record date are present in person (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting) or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting. All shares represented by proxy are counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum.

Required Vote

The Business Combination Proposal.    Approval of the Business Combination Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock entitled to vote (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws) that are voted at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

The Binding Charter Proposals.    Approval of Binding Charter Proposal A requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of BRPM common stock entitled to vote (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws) at the Special Meeting. Approval of Binding Charter Proposal B requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of BRPM Class A common stock, voting separately as a single class. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “against” these proposals because an absolute majority of the outstanding shares is required for approval.

The Advisory Charter Proposals.    Approval of each of the Advisory Charter Proposals, each of which is a non-binding vote, requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock present (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting and representation by proxy) and entitled to vote thereupon (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws). The failure to vote, broker non-votes and abstentions have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

The Director Election Proposal.    Approval of the Director Election Proposal requires a plurality of the votes cast by BRPM Stockholders present in person (which would include presence at a virtual meeting) or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class. Accordingly, a BRPM Stockholder’s abstention, failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person (which would include presence at a virtual meeting) at the Special Meeting or a broker non-vote will have no effect on the outcome of Director Election Proposal.

The Stock Issuance Proposal.    Approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock present (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting and representation by proxy) and entitled to vote thereupon (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws). The failure to vote, broker non-votes and abstentions have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

35

Table of Contents

The Incentive Plan Proposal.    Approval of the Incentive Plan Proposal requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock present (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting and representation by proxy) and entitled to vote thereupon (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws). The failure to vote, broker non-votes and abstentions have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

The ESPP Proposal.    Approval of the ESPP Proposal requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock present (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting and representation by proxy) and entitled to vote thereupon (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws). The failure to vote, broker non-votes and abstentions have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

The Adjournment Proposal.    Approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of BRPM common stock present (which would include presence at the virtual Special Meeting and representation by proxy) and entitled to vote thereupon (as determined in accordance with the Current Charter and BRPM’s bylaws). The failure to vote, broker non-votes and abstentions have no effect on the outcome of the proposal because they do not constitute votes cast.

Recommendation of the BRPM Board

The BRPM Board has unanimously determined that the Business Combination is in the best interests of, and advisable to, the BRPM Stockholders and recommends that the BRPM Stockholders adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination. The BRPM Board made its determination after consultation with its legal and financial advisors and consideration of a number of factors.

The BRPM Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the approval of both of the Binding Charter Proposals, “FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of each of the Advisory Charter Proposals, “FOR” the approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the approval of the Incentive Plan Proposal, “FOR” the ESPP Proposal, and “FOR” the approval of the Adjournment Proposal.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of BRPM’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he, she or they may believe is in the best interests of BRPM and its stockholders and what he, she or they may believe is best for himself, herself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. In addition, BRPM’s officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a stockholder. See the section entitled “The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of BRPM’s Directors and Officers in the Business Combination” of this proxy statement/prospectus.

For more information about the BRPM Board’s recommendation and the proposals, see the sections entitled “The Special Meeting — Vote Required and BRPM Board Recommendation” and “The Business Combination Proposal”.

The BRPM Board considered a number of factors when making its determination that the Business Combination is consistent with the investment criteria and guidelines listed above and in making its decision to enter into the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the following positive factors, although not weighted or in any order of significance:

        Large addressable market and first mover advantage.    NewZoo, a provider of games and Esports analytics and market research, reports that there were approximately 3 billion Esports gamers and more than 400 million Esports viewers worldwide, as of July 2021, with the number of Esports viewers expected to grow approximately 8% per year from 2021 to 2024. According to Grand View Research’s Video Streaming, Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report (2021-2028), the global video streaming market is expected to grow at a 21% compound annual growth rate from 2021 to 2028. FaZe was an early mover in online video game and youth culture, which the BRPM Board believes gives FaZe credibility with FaZe’s target audience of 13-34 year-olds. With expected growth in both the global video streaming market and the Esports market, the BRPM Board believes FaZe will be well-positioned to capitalize on the growing market.

        Recent growth.    The BRPM Board believes the FaZe brand has shown outsized recent growth, strength, and reach as measured by total social media followers and cross-platform actions. FaZe has a large and engaged global audience, with a Total Reach of over 350 million fans across social media platforms globally, nearly 80% of whom were 13-34 year-olds. The BRPM Board believes FaZe is well-positioned to bring brands to the 13-34 age demographic because of its deep understanding of how Gen Z consumes and engages with content. FaZe has several revenue streams including brand sponsorships, content, consumer products, Esports teams, and international markets.

        Substantial monetization opportunities.    The BRPM Board believes that there is a meaningful opportunity to create equity value in the business by increasing user monetization through various revenue streams described below. Historically, Faze receives approximately $0.35 per fan from its more than 350 million fans across social media platforms globally. This compares unfavorably to other forms of media. For example, ESPN charges approximately $116 per subscription across its user base of approximately 82 million, Twitter is able to capture approximately $19 per daily average user across 192 million daily active users, and the NHL monetizes its approximately 133 million viewers at a rate of approximately $65 per fan. The BRPM Board believes FaZe has several avenues for improving monetization across its revenue streams:

        Curated media — Given its existing audience reach and strength of its brand, FaZe has a unique opportunity to create tailored content for its fanbase and develop a substantial IP library to drive further fan engagement and fanbase monetization by partnering with media distributors or launching its own over-the-top platform.

        Merchandise — FaZe has the ability to launch its own consumer brands or act as an enabler for existing brands that Faze consumers would see as a good fit. The demographics of FaZe’s audience position FaZe well to build next generation apparel, gaming peripherals, or other consumer brands by leveraging FaZe’s Esports and digitally native media reach.

        Sponsorships — FaZe has the ability to leverage the growth of its media reach by establishing long-term sponsorship deals with leading consumer brands globally. With scale, FaZe will be able to sign multi-year agreements (analogues to other sports franchises) at attractive term. Historically, FaZe has shown the ability of its consumers to drive engagement and demand for products and services that partner with FaZe. FaZe offers a unique value proposition for CMOs due the lucrative demographic of its audience and a non-uniform marketing approach across its various digital media properties and content silos.

        M&A — FaZe’s existing brand strength in the Esports and broader digital media market makes it an attractive acquisition platform for other Esports organizations. By leveraging FaZe’s and its talent’s social media reach and engaged fan base, Faze is able to substantially increase consumer engagement for acquired media properties or Esports teams and thus meaningfully improve deal economics. This would further drive user monetization, increasing average dollars captured per fan.

        Other revenue streams — FaZe can substantially benefit from, and expects to take advantage in the near and longer term of, the recent increase in engagement amongst various metaverse platforms. Given that FaZe is an internet-native brand popular among Gen Z, the demographic that is prevalent in driving metaverse engagement, FaZe is uniquely positioned to create new experiences in the digital ecosystems and further increase fanbase monetization. Examples of monetization strategies include launching digitally native apparel and in-gaming items

        Scalable platform.    The BRPM Board believes the FaZe business is scalable and built to support acquisition opportunities that can accelerate FaZe’s growth and drive capital efficiencies.

        FaZe Forecasts and Comparable Companies.    The BRPM Board believed the FaZe Forecasts and comparable companies analysis supported the implied equity valuation of FaZe in the Business Combination.

        Proven and experienced management team.    FaZe’s management team has deep industry expertise, starting with its Chief Executive Officer and business Co-Founder, Lee Trink, who has more than 20 years of experience in the entertainment industry. Mr. Trink served as General Manager for artist-first label Lava/Atlantic Records from 2001 to 2005. In 2005, he went on to lead Virgin Records as Chief Operating Officer and General Manager, and in 2007 he was promoted to President of EMI Capitol Music Group (comprised of Capitol Records, Virgin Records, Blue Note Records and Astralwerks Records). He has worked with renowned artists such as Katy Perry, 30 Seconds to Mars, The Rolling Stones, Coldplay, and Lenny Kravitz, among others. From 2009 to 2010, Mr. Trink was Principal Partner at Hollywood entertainment production company Prospect Park, and then in 2010, Mr. Trink started his own management and marketing business, working with brands such as General Motors, Harley-Davidson and Jim Beam, and artists such as Kid Rock and the historic Preservation Hall Jazz Band. As a founder of the business of FaZe helping it evolve from an online gaming company to a revenue generating business, Mr. Trink brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to FaZe, and has sought to transform both FaZe and Esports from a niche segment of entertainment into a globally recognized brand and industry. Mr. Trink is also supported by the leadership team which has decades of experience in the industry.

        Terms of Merger Agreement and related agreements.    BRPM Board reviewed the financial and other terms of the Merger Agreement and related agreements and determined that they were the product of arm’s-length negotiations among the parties.

        Stockholder approval.    The BRPM Board considered the fact that in connection with the business combination, stockholders have the option to (i) remain stockholders of New FaZe following the Business Combination, (ii) sell their shares on the open market or (iii) redeem their shares for the per share amount held in the Trust Account.

The BRPM Board also identified and considered the following factors and risks weighing negatively against pursuing the Business Combination, although not weighted or in any order of significance:

        FaZe’s History of Operating Losses.    The BRPM Board considered the fact that FaZe has incurred and expects to continue to incur operating losses, and that these conditions have raised substantial doubt about FaZe’s ability to continue as a going concern.

        The Potential Loss of the FaZe Brand.    The BRPM Board considered the fact that FaZe’s business depends on the strength of the FaZe brand. If FaZe is unable to maintain and enhance the FaZe brand and reputation, including as a result of unfavorable publicity regarding any of the FaZe Esports teams, Esports athletes, content creators, influencers, or brand partners, the size, demographics and engagement of FaZe’s fan base and the demand for FaZe’s products may decline.

        Competition.    FaZe’s business is rapidly evolving and FaZe competes against a variety of fragmented firms across multiple industries, including well-established lifestyle brands, long-standing players in the media industry, traditional sports leagues, and new entrants challenging our position in the Esports and gaming industry.

        Post-Business Combination Corporate Governance.    The BRPM Board considered the corporate governance provisions of the Proposed Charter and the effect of those provisions on the governance of New FaZe following the Closing. The Proposed Charter includes several provisions that may make it more difficult for New FaZe Stockholders to exercise control over New FaZe including, but not limited to the fact that the Proposed Charter would (i) remove the separate class vote for increases or decreases of the authorized shares of any class of capital stock, (ii) eliminate the right of New FaZe Stockholders to act by written consent, and (iii) require a supermajority vote of shareholders to amend certain provisions of the Proposed Charter. The material differences between the Current Charter and the Proposed Charter are discussed in more detail in the sections of this proxy statement/prospectus titled “The Binding Charter Proposals” and “The Advisory Charter Proposals.”

        Limitations of Review.    The BRPM Board considered that it would not obtain an opinion from any independent investment banking firm that the price BRPM is paying to acquire FaZe is fair to BRPM or its stockholders from a financial point of view. In addition, there are inherent limitations in the due diligence review of FaZe conducted by the BRPM management team and BRPM’s outside advisors.

        Potential Inability to Complete the Business Combination.    The BRPM Board considered the possibility that the Business Combination may not be completed and the potential adverse consequences to BRPM if the Business Combination is not completed, in particular the expenditure of time and resources in pursuit of the Business Combination and the fact that the Merger Agreement prohibits BRPM from soliciting other initial business combination proposals while the Merger Agreement is in effect, which could limit BRPM’s ability to seek an alternative business combination.

        Litigation.    The BRPM Board considered the possibility of litigation challenging the Business Combination or that an adverse judgment granting permanent injunctive relief could enjoin consummation of the Business Combination.

        Interests of Certain Persons.    Some of BRPM’s officers and directors may have interests in the Business Combination as individuals that are in addition to, and that may be different from, the interests of BRPM Stockholders. For instance, the Sponsor, and the officers and directors of BRPM who have invested in the Sponsor entity, will benefit from the completion of a business combination and may be incentivized to complete an acquisition of a less favorable target company or on terms that would be less favorable to Public Stockholders. See “Interests of BRPM’s Directors and Officers in the Business Combination” for more information.

        Other Risks.    The BRPM Board considered various other risks associated with FaZe’s business, as described in the section of this proxy statement/prospectus titled “Risk Factors.”

The BRPM Board considered all of these factors as a whole and, on balance, concluded that they supported a favorable determination that the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination are fair from a financial point of view to and in the best interests of BRPM and its stockholders. In view of the wide variety of factors considered by the BRPM Board in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination and related transactions and the complexity of these matters, the BRPM Board did not consider it practical to, nor did it attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors that it considered in reaching its decision. Rather, the BRPM Board based its recommendation on the totality of the information presented to and considered by it. The BRPM Board evaluated the reasons described above with the assistance of BRPM’s outside advisors. In considering the factors described above and any other factors, individual members of the BRPM Board may have viewed factors differently or given different weights to other or different factors.

This explanation of BRPM’s reasons for the Business Combination and all other information presented in this section is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed in this sections of this proxy statement/prospectus titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors”.

After careful consideration, the BRPM Board unanimously (i) declared the advisability of the Merger, the PIPE Investment and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (ii) determined that the Merger, the PIPE Investment and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are in the best interests of the stockholders of BRPM, (iii) determined that the Merger constitute a “Business Combination” as such term is defined in the Current Charter and (iv) resolved to recommend that the BRPM Stockholders approve the Business Combination and the other proposals set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Ownership of Combined Company following Business Combination

As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there are 22,082,500 shares of BRPM common stock issued and outstanding (including shares underlying the BRPM units), which includes 4,312,500 shares of BRPM Class B common stock held by the Sponsor and 17,770,000 shares of BRPM Class A common stock. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, there is an aggregate of 5,923,333 BRPM warrants issued and outstanding, which includes 173,333 Private Placement Warrants underlying the BRPM units held by the Sponsor. Each whole BRPM warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of BRPM Class A common stock. Therefore, as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus (without giving effect to the Business Combination), the BRPM fully diluted share capital would be 28,005,833 shares of BRPM common stock.

It is anticipated that, immediately following the Business Combination, (i) BRPM’s Public Stockholders will own 15.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of New FaZe common stock, (ii) holders of BRPM Public Warrants will own 5.0% of the outstanding shares of New FaZe common stock, assuming cash exercise of the Public Warrants, (iii) existing FaZe Stockholders will own 65.5% of outstanding New FaZe common stock (including the 500,000 shares of New FaZe common stock purchased by the FaZe PIPE Investor in the PIPE Investment), (iv) the Sponsor and Sponsor Related PIPE Investors will collectively own 6.4% of outstanding New FaZe common stock, including the 2,200,000 shares of New FaZe common stock purchased by the Sponsor Related PIPE Investors in the PIPE Investment, and 173,333 shares issuable upon the cash exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, with an aggregate of 2,156,250 shares of New FaZe common stock subject to vesting pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, discussed in more detail below, and (v) the third-party PIPE Investors will own 8.0% of outstanding New FaZe common stock (which excludes the 500,000 shares purchased by the FaZe PIPE Investor and the 2,200,000 shares purchased by the Sponsor Related PIPE Investors). These percentages (w) assume that no BRPM Stockholders exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Merger, (x) include 6,440,827 Earn-Out Shares issuable at the Closing in the no redemptions scenario, shares of New FaZe common stock issuable in respect of New FaZe Restricted Stock Awards, and shares of New FaZe common stock issuable upon the cash exercise of New FaZe options (which are converted from options outstanding under FaZe’s existing incentive plans) that are exercisable within 60 days after the Closing (using a deemed closing date of May 6, 2022 for the purpose of this calculation), (y) assume that New FaZe issues 11,800,000 shares of New FaZe common stock to the PIPE Investors pursuant to the PIPE Investment, and (z) assume all of the outstanding BRPM warrants are exercised. If the actual facts are different from these assumptions, the percentage ownership and voting power retained by BRPM’s existing shareholders in New FaZe will be different.

The following table illustrates varying ownership levels in BRPM before, and New FaZe immediately following, the consummation of the Business Combination at various redemption levels, including the dilutive effect of outstanding warrants.
