More than 96% of the votes cast at the meeting voted to approve the business combination and holders of approximately 86% of TBA’s issued and outstanding shares cast votes. The transaction is expected to close on June 28, and the combined entity’s shares will start trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the new symbol “IS” on June 29.

As such, the Sponsor has agreed to invest approximately $32.5 million in ironSource at the consummation of the Transactions.
