About Harmony Merger Corp.

Harmony was incorporated in Delaware on May 21, 2014 as a blank check company whose objective is to acquire, through a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination, one or more businesses or entities. On March 27, 2015, Harmony consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 11,500,000 units, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one common share, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000 and net proceeds of $112,605,665 after deducting $2,394,335 of transaction costs paid at closing (up to an additional $4,325,000 of deferred underwriting expenses may be paid upon the completion of a business combination). In addition, Harmony generated gross and net proceeds of $5,585,000 from a private placement (the “Private Placement”) of units (“Private Units”) to certain of the initial stockholders of Harmony prior to the IPO and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., the representative of the underwriters in the IPO (“Cantor”). Following the closing of the IPO and the Private Placement on March 27, 2015, an amount of $117,300,000 (or $10.20 per share sold to the public in the Offering included in the Units (“Public Shares”)) from the sale of the Units and Private Units was placed in a trust account (Trust Account”) and invested in U.S. treasuries or United States bonds having a maturity of 180 days or less or money market funds meeting the applicable conditions of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The $117,300,000 placed into the Trust Account may not be released until the earlier of (i) the consummation of Harmony’s initial business combination and (ii) Harmony’s failure to consummate a business combination within the prescribed time. As of December 31, 2016, Harmony held approximately $117.5 million in the Trust Account.
