OF

PLATINUM EAGLE ACQUISITION CORP.

​

Pursuant to Section 204 of the

General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware

​

PLATINUM EAGLE ACQUISITION CORP., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Corporation”), certifies as follows:

​

1.         The defective corporate act that is the subject of this Certificate of Validation is the filing and effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (the “Certificate”) on March 15, 2019 in accordance with Section 103 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “General Corporation Law”).

​

2.         The nature and failure of authorization is respect of the defective corporate act identified above is the failure of the Company to have filed the Certificate as an amended and restated certificate of incorporation in accordance with Sections 242, 245 and 103 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “General Corporation Law”).  The Certificate, which among other things changed the Corporation’s name and changed the name of the Class A Common Stock to Common Stock, failed to include the title “Amended and Restated” and, as a result, was inadvertently filed and recorded as the certificate of incorporation of a separate corporation.  Immediately prior to the filing of this Certificate of Validation, the Corporation took all necessary corporate action to render the certificate of incorporation so inadvertently filed null and void.

​

3.         The defective corporate act identified above, the filing of this Certificate of Validation and the actions contemplated thereby were duly ratified and approved in accordance with Section 204 of the General Corporation Law pursuant to resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Corporation adopted April 17, 2020 and resolution of the stockholders of the Corporation adopted May 6, 2020 acting by written consent in lieu of a meeting in accordance with Section 228 of the General Corporation Law.

​

4.         The Certificate was duly approved and adopted by the Corporation’s board of directors on November 13, 2018, the Corporation’s stockholders on March 6, 2019 and was further ratified and approved by the Corporation’s board of directors on March 15, 2019, in each case in accordance with Section 242 of the General Corporation Law.

​

5.         No certificate with respect to the Corporation was previously filed under Section 103 of the General Corporation Law in respect to the defective corporate act that is the subject of this Certificate of Validation.  A certificate containing all of the information required to be included under Sections 242 and 245 of the General Corporation Law to give effect to the defective corporate act that is the subject of this Certificate of Validation is attached hereto as Exhibit A.  The certificate shall be deemed to have become effective as of 8:50 a.m. on March 15, 2019.
