Latch files Delaware Chancery petition to validate 1B-share increase after Boxed ruling
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Filed §205 petition to validate Second Amended Certificate (raising authorized shares from 275M to 1B) and all shares issued.
- Uncertainty arose from Garfield v. Boxed decision suggesting separate Class A vote may have been required for the increase.
- Company says a majority of Class A shares (60.2%) voted in favor, but separate class vote was not formally solicited.
- Expedited hearing set for March 29, 2023; failure could impair equity financing, stock compensation, and Nasdaq listing.
- As of Feb 28, 2023, 145.3M shares outstanding, below original 275M cap, but validation still sought for capital-structure certainty.
