Evolv Technologies Holdings, Inc.
- Filed March 14, 2023 petition under DGCL Section 205 to validate Second Amended Certificate increasing authorized Class A shares to 1.1B.

- Chancery Court set hearing for March 29, 2023 at 11:40 a.m. ET; motion to expedite granted.
- Company currently has 147,128,868 Class A shares outstanding; Old Certificate only authorized 50M Class A shares.
- If not validated, shares issued in de-SPAC merger may be invalid, impacting Nasdaq listing and financing.
