F6 As disclosed on the reporting person's Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13-D, dated May 19, 2023, on May 19, 2023, Keperra Holdings entered into a prepaid variable share forward contract with Citibank, N.A ("Citibank"). The contract obligates Keperra Holdings to deliver to Citibank up to 2,000,000 shares of common shares ("Common Shares") of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. (the "Issuer") (or, at the reporting person's election, an equivalent amount of cash based on the market price of Common Shares at that time) on August 18, 2024, the maturity date of the contract (the "Maturity Date"). In exchange for assuming this obligation, Keperra Holdings has received a cash payment of $2,626,960.00.
F7 (Continued from footnote 6) Keperra Holdings pledged 2,000,000 Common Shares (the "Pledged Shares") to secure his obligations under the contract and retained dividend and voting rights in the Pledged Shares during the term of the pledge (so long as no event of default or similar event occurs under the variable prepaid forward contract or the related pledge and security agreement). The number of Common Shares to be delivered to Citibank on the Maturity Date is to be determined as follows: (a) if the average closing price of the Common Shares on the date that is ten (10) days prior to the Maturity Date (the "Settlement Price") is less than or equal to the price (the "Initial Share Price") at which a particular group of Common Shares were hedged by Citibank (each, an "Applicable Group of Shares"),
F8 (Continued from footnote 7) the reporting person will deliver to Citibank all of the Applicable Group of Shares; (b) if the Settlement Price is between the applicable Initial Share Price and an amount equal to 120% of the Initial Share Price (the "Cap Price"), the reporting person will deliver to the buyer a number of Common Shares having a value (based on the Settlement Price) equal to the applicable Initial Share Price divided by the Settlement Price; and (c) if the Settlement Price is greater than the applicable Cap Price, the reporting person will deliver to the purchaser a number of Common Shares having a value (based on the Settlement Price) equal to (i) the sum of (A) the applicable Initial Share Price plus (B) the Settlement Price minus the applicable Initial Share Price, divided by (ii) the Settlement Price.
