1. It is important that you completely read and understand the Notice of Pendency and Proposed Settlement of Class Action (the “Notice”) that accompanies this Claim Form, including the Plan of Allocation of the Net Settlement Fund set forth in the Notice. The Notice describes the proposed Settlement, how Settlement Class Members are affected by the Settlement, and the manner in which the Net Settlement Fund will be distributed if the Settlement and Plan of Allocation are approved by the Court. The Notice also contains the definitions of many of the defined terms (which are indicated by initial capital letters) used in this Claim Form. By signing and submitting this Claim Form, you will be certifying that you have read and that you understand the Notice, including the terms of the Releases described in the Notice and provided for in this Claim Form.
2. This Claim Form is directed to all Persons and entities which, between March 25, 2021 and March 31, 2022, inclusive (the “Settlement Class Period”), (a) purchased or otherwise acquired Class Securities, or (b) sold or otherwise disposed of Put Options (together, the “Settlement Class”). Common Stock (defined as common stock publicly traded under “GNPK” or “RDW” on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”)), Warrants (defined as warrants publicly traded under “GNPK WS or “RDW WS” on the NYSE), and Call and Put Options (defined as call and put options on Common Stock) are referred to collectively as “Class Securities.” All Persons and entities that are members of the Settlement Class are referred to as “Settlement Class Members.”
3. Excluded from the Settlement Class are Defendants, the officers and directors of Redwire, at all relevant times, members of their Immediate Family and their legal representatives, heirs, successors, or assigns, and any entity in which Defendants have or had a controlling interest. Also excluded are any Persons or entities who properly exclude themselves by filing a valid and timely request for exclusion in accordance with the requirements set by the Court.
4. If you are not a Settlement Class Member, do not submit a Claim Form. YOU MAY NOT, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, PARTICIPATE IN THE SETTLEMENT IF YOU ARE NOT A SETTLEMENT CLASS MEMBER. THUS, IF YOU ARE EXCLUDED FROM THE SETTLEMENT CLASS (AS SET FORTH IN PARAGRAPH 3 ABOVE), ANY CLAIM FORM THAT YOU SUBMIT, OR THAT MAY BE SUBMITTED ON YOUR BEHALF, WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
5. If you are a Settlement Class Member, you will be bound by the terms of any judgments or orders entered in the Action WHETHER OR NOT YOU SUBMIT A CLAIM FORM, unless you submit a request for exclusion from the Settlement Class. Thus, if you are a Settlement Class Member, the Judgment will release, and enjoin the filing or continued prosecution of, the Released Claims Against Defendants against the Defendants’ Releasees and the Released Claims Against Lead Plaintiff against Lead Plaintiff’s Releasees.
6. You are eligible to participate in the distribution of the Net Settlement Fund only if you are a member of the Settlement Class and if you complete and return this form as specified below. If you fail to submit a timely, properly addressed, and completed Claim Form with the required documentation, your claim may be rejected and you may be precluded from receiving any distribution from the Net Settlement Fund.
7. Submission of this Claim Form does not guarantee that you will share in the proceeds of the Settlement. The distribution of the Net Settlement Fund will be governed by the Plan of Allocation set forth in the Notice, if it is approved by the Court, or by such other plan of allocation approved by the Court.
8. Use the Schedule of Transactions in Parts III-VI of this Claim Form to supply all required details of your transaction(s) (including free transfers) in and holdings of the applicable Class Securities. On the Schedule of Transactions, please provide all of the requested information with respect to your holdings, purchases, acquisitions, and sales of the applicable Class Securities, and whether such transactions resulted in a profit or a loss. Failure to report all transaction and holding information during the requested time periods may result in the rejection of your claim.
9. Please note: Only Common Stock, Warrants, and Call Options purchased/acquired, and Put Options sold, during the Settlement Class Period (i.e., from March 25, 2021 through March 31, 2022, inclusive) are eligible under the Settlement. However, because the law provides for a “90-Day Lookback Period” (described in the Plan of Allocation set forth in the Notice), you must provide documentation related to your purchases and sales of Common Stock and Warrants during the period from March 25, 2021 to June 29, 2022, inclusive, in order for the Claims Administrator to calculate your Recognized Loss amount under the Plan of Allocation and process your claim.
10. You are required to submit genuine and sufficient documentation for all of your transactions and holdings in the Class Securities set forth in the Schedule of Transactions in Parts III-VI of this Claim Form. Documentation may consist of copies of brokerage confirmation slips or monthly brokerage account statements, or an authorized statement from your broker containing the transactional and holding information found in a broker confirmation slip or account statement. The Parties and the Claims Administrator do not independently have information about your investments in Class Securities. IF SUCH DOCUMENTS ARE NOT IN YOUR POSSESSION, PLEASE OBTAIN COPIES OR EQUIVALENT CONTEMPORANEOUS DOCUMENTS FROM YOUR BROKER. FAILURE TO SUPPLY THIS DOCUMENTATION MAY RESULT IN THE REJECTION OF YOUR CLAIM. DO NOT SEND ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS. Please keep a copy of all documents that you send to the Claims Administrator. Also, please do not highlight any portion of the Claim Form or any supporting documents.
11. Separate Claim Forms should be submitted for each separate legal entity (e.g., a claim from joint owners should not include separate transactions through an account that is in the name of just one of the joint owners, and an individual should not combine his or her IRA transactions with transactions made through an account in the individual’s name). Conversely, a single Claim Form should be submitted on behalf of one legal entity including all transactions made by that entity on one Claim Form, no matter how many separate accounts that entity has (e.g., a corporation with multiple brokerage accounts should include all transactions made in all accounts on one Claim Form).
12. All joint beneficial owners must sign this Claim Form. If you purchased or otherwise acquired Class Securities, or sold Put Options, during the Settlement Class Period and held the securities in your name, you are the beneficial owner as well as the record owner and you must sign this Claim Form to participate in the Settlement. If, however, you purchased or otherwise acquired Class Securities, or sold Put Options, during the Settlement Class Period and the securities were registered in the name of a third party, such as a nominee or brokerage firm, you are the beneficial owner of these securities, but the third party is the record owner. The beneficial owner, not the record owner, must sign this Claim Form.
13. Agents, executors, administrators, guardians, and trustees must complete and sign the Claim Form on behalf of persons represented by them, and they must:
a) expressly state the capacity in which they are acting;
b) identify the name, account number, Social Security Number (or taxpayer identification number), address, and telephone number of the beneficial owner of (or other person or entity on whose behalf they are acting with respect to) the Class Securities; and
c) furnish evidence of their authority to bind to the Claim Form the person or entity on whose behalf they are acting. (Authority to complete and sign a Claim Form cannot be established by stockbrokers demonstrating only that they have discretionary authority to trade stock in another person’s accounts.)
14. By submitting a signed Claim Form, you will be swearing that you:
a) own(ed) the Class Securities you have listed in the Claim Form; or
b) are expressly authorized to act on behalf of the owner thereof.
15. By submitting a signed Claim Form, you will be swearing to the truth of the statements contained therein and the genuineness of the documents attached thereto, subject to penalties of perjury under the laws of the United States of America. The making of false statements, or the submission of forged or fraudulent documentation, will result in the rejection of your claim and may subject you to civil liability or criminal prosecution.
16. If the Court approves the Settlement, payments to eligible Authorized Claimants pursuant to the Plan of Allocation (or such other plan of allocation as the Court approves) will be made after the completion of all claims processing. This could take substantial time. Please be patient.
17.
PLEASE NOTE: As set forth in the Plan of Allocation, each Authorized Claimant shall receive its pro rata share of the Net Settlement Fund. If the prorated payment to any Authorized Claimant, however, calculates to less than $10.00, it will not be included in the calculation and no distribution will be made to that Authorized Claimant.
18. If you have questions concerning the Claim Form, or need additional copies of the Claim Form or the Notice, you may contact the Claims Administrator at Redwire Corporation Securities Litigation, c/o Strategic Claims Services, 600 N. Jackson St., Ste. 205, P.O. Box 230, Media, PA 19063; toll-free: (866) 274-4004;

19. NOTICE REGARDING INSTITUTIONAL FILERS: Representatives with authority to file on behalf of (a) accounts of multiple Settlement Class Members and/or (b) institutional accounts with large numbers of transactions (“Representative Filers”) must submit information regarding their transactions in an electronic spreadsheet format. If you are a Representative Filer, you must contact the Claims Administrator at
efile@strategicclaims.net or visit their website at
www.strategicclaims.net/redwire to obtain the required file layout. Claims which are not submitted in electronic spreadsheet format and in accordance with the Claims Administrator’s instructions may be subject to rejection. All Representative Filers MUST also submit a manually signed Claim Form, as well as proof of authority to file (see Paragraph 13 above), along with the electronic spreadsheet format. No claims submitted in electronic spreadsheet format will be considered to have been properly submitted unless the Claims Administrator issues to the Claimant a written acknowledgment of receipt and acceptance of electronically submitted data.
20. NOTICE REGARDING ONLINE FILING: Claimants who are not Representative Filers may submit their claims online using the electronic version of the Claim Form hosted at
www.strategicclaims.net/redwire. If you are not acting as a Representative Filer, you do not need to contact the Claims Administrator prior to filing; you will receive an automated e-mail confirming receipt once your Claim Form has been submitted. If you are unsure if you should submit your claim as a Representative Filer, please contact the Claims Administrator at
info@strategicclaims.net or (866) 274-4004. If you are not a Representative Filer, but your claim contains a large number of transactions, the Claims Administrator may request that you also submit an electronic spreadsheet showing your transactions to accompany your Claim Form.
