On October 11, 2022, ForgeRock, Inc.

(“Merger Sub”) and ForgeRock. The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into ForgeRock (the “Merger”), with ForgeRock continuing as the surviving corporation of the Merger and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

In connection with the Merger, ForgeRock held a Special Meeting of Stockholders on January 12, 2023, at 9:00 a.m., Pacific time (the “Special Meeting”).

There were 48,219,841 shares of ForgeRock’s Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 37,572,279 shares of ForgeRock’s Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (collectively, the “Shares”), issued and outstanding as of the close of business on November 18, 2022, the record date for the Special Meeting (the “Record Date”). At the Special Meeting, the holders of 70,529,460 shares of ForgeRock’s Class A common stock and Class B common stock were present in person or represented by proxy, representing 401,935,659 votes, or approximately 94.80% of the voting power of the Shares as of the Record Date, which constituted a quorum.
