On July 24, 2023, Mobile Infrastructure Corporation, a Maryland corporation (“MIC”), posted to its website a video FAQ from Manuel Chavez, III, MIC’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the MIC Board of Directors, and Stephanie Hogue, MIC’s President and Chief Financial Officer and a member of the MIC Board of Directors, regarding the proposed transactions (the “Proposed Transactions”) contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 13, 2022, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 23, 2023 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Fifth Wall Acquisition Corp. III, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“FWAC” and, following its domestication by means of a corporate conversion to a Maryland corporation, “Surviving Pubco”), Queen Merger Corp. I, a Maryland corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of FWAC, and MIC. A transcript of the FAQ presentation follows below:


Question on screen: What is the current status of the transaction?

 

00;00;05;14 - 00;00;15;21

Stephanie Hogue

We are working towards a close this summer. A key date is the special meeting of MIC Common Stockholders on August 10th, 2023 at 9 a.m. Eastern time.

 

00;00;15;21 - 00;00;48;26

Stephanie Hogue

We will, among other things, hold a vote to approve the transaction. When the merger closes, your shares of common stock are expected to be publicly listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker beep. After this time, shares of common stock will be able to be traded freely. Your vote is very important. No matter how many shares of MIC common stock you own, this merger cannot be completed without the approval from MIC Common stock shareholders.

The record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote on the transaction is June 15th, 2023, by the close of business.

 

Question on screen: Why should I vote for this transaction?

 

00;00;49;21 - 00;01;49;05

Stephanie Hogue

Your vote is very important.

You must vote yes to ensure we get to the next step in this process. The completion of the merger is expected to give you liquidity on the New York Stock Exchange or the NYSE American Exchange, meaning that you'll be able to sell your shares on the open market.

Your shares of common stock of Mobile Infrastructure Corporation will be exchanged for common stock of the combined company, which will be freely tradable following the closing of the merger.

Importantly, insider shareholders and management will be subject to a lock-up period on the shares that they own. We think this is crucial to align interest as we continue to grow the platform.

The public listing of mobile infrastructure stock would mark an important step in our path towards creating a next generation publicly listed parking platform.

We believe that there is tremendous value to unlock as we continue to execute on our strategy and reap the benefits from our active asset management initiatives. We have an exciting opportunity in terms of our existing portfolio as well as the opportunity for additional growth through acquisition over time.

 

Question on screen: What do I need to do as a shareholder?

 

00;01;49;28 - 00;02;03;22

Stephanie Hogue

This is a very important question. Getting to the next step in this process relies on you voting “yes”. You should have received a proxy statement which was mailed on July 11th and provides instructions on how you can cast your “yes” vote today.

 

00;02;05;03 - 00;02;31;05

Manuel Chavez

 

 

Well, assuming that you and your fellow shareholders vote yes to approve the merger, every one share of MIC common stock you hold will convert to 1.5 shares of the new BEEP stock. This applies to each share of MIC common stock held prior to the effective time of the merger. Holders of MIC’s preferred stock will receive one share of preferred stock of the surviving company for each share of MIC preferred stock held prior to the effective time of the merger.

 

Question on screen: At what price will my shares list?

 

00;02;32;24 - 00;02;44;21

Manuel Chavez

Your shares of BEEP stock will list at $10 per share. But again, it's important to note that you will receive 1.5 shares of BEEP stock for each share of MIC stock you own.

 

Question on screen: Are you going to be paying a dividend?

 

00;02;45;05 - 00;03;06;28

Manuel Chavez

Dividends on Mobile Infrastructure Corp. Series A convertible redeemable preferred stock and Series one convertible Redeemable Preferred stock are continuing to accrue in accordance with the terms. The exact timing of the payment has not yet been set.

Similarly, the company has not yet made a determination whether dividends will be paid on the common stock.

 

Question on screen: Why is being a publicly listed company good for Mobile Infrastructure (why should we remain shareholders)?

 

00;03;10;03 - 00;04;00;09

Manuel Chavez

Parking is an attractive asset class with relatively stable cash flows, high contribution margin and low labor cost, low recurring capital requirements, and we believe mobile infrastructure will be the only publicly listed pure play parking owner of scale. Since we took ownership of the assets, we have been working to reposition the portfolio to establish an institutional platform focused on driving shareholder value through our unique approach to active asset management. We have already started on this growth journey as we have negotiated new lease structures, implemented an active asset management strategy with our proprietary technology and refocused on capturing demand from multiple sources at each asset. We are making progress and still have what we believe is a lot of embedded value creation opportunities.

 

00;04;00;09 - 00;04;24;23

Manuel Chavez

Lastly, I'll reiterate the investment highlights. Parking is a compelling asset class. We have a best-in-class platform. The portfolio has attractive in-place revenue with potential upside, and we are uniquely positioned to consolidate a fragmented market. And as a final reminder, please vote and please vote yes.
