~~Item~~As 8previously reported in the Proxy Statement, concurrently with the execution of the Transaction Agreement, Riverview entered into Subscription Agreements (the “Riverview Subscription Agreements”) with certain investors (collectively, the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which 31 PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and Riverview agreed to issue and sell to such PIPE Investors, prior to and substantially concurrently with the closing of the Mergers, an aggregate of 22,150,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001, of Riverview (the “Riverview Class A Shares”), at a purchase price of $10.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $221,500,000 (the “Riverview PIPE Financing”). The Riverview Subscription Agreements provide, subject to customary conditions, that if the subscriber holds any Riverview Class A Shares acquired after the date of the applicable Riverview Subscription Agreement and does not exercise any redemption rights with respect thereto (such shares, the “Offset Shares”), then the applicable PIPE Investor may elect to reduce the number of Riverview Class A Shares that such PIPE Investor is required to purchase in the Riverview PIPE Financing by the number of such Offset Shares. The Riverview Class A Shares to be issued pursuant to the Riverview Subscription Agreements have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance upon the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) thereof. Each Riverview Class A Share issued in the Riverview PIPE Financing will be automatically canceled and extinguished and converted into one share of common stock of Westrock, par value $0.01 ~~Other~~per ~~Events~~share (the “Westrock Common Shares”) in the SPAC Merger. PIPE Investors are permitted under the Riverview Subscription Agreements to satisfy their commitments thereunder by purchasing Offset Shares through the purchase of Riverview Class A Shares on the public market, subject to customary restrictions set forth therein.

~~Certain~~As ~~Merger-Related~~of ~~Litigation~~August ~~Matters~~23, 2022, PIPE Investors have acquired and hold a total of 2,010,000 Riverview Class A Shares, in the open market, which they certify have been purchased after April 4, 2022 at purchase prices per share ranging from $9.99 to $10.04, inclusive. In accordance with the aforementioned offset provision provided in the Riverview Subscription Agreements, the aggregate gross proceeds with respect to the PIPE Investors will be reduced by $20,100,000 to an aggregate net proceeds of $201,400,000. The PIPE Investors have waived their right to redeem such Riverview Class A Shares and may not cast votes with respect to such Riverview Class A Shares at Riverview’s Special Meeting of Stockholders on August 25, 2022. Riverview does not believe that the waiver of voting rights by such PIPE Investors will materially impact the likelihood that the Mergers will be approved at such meeting.

On May 9, 2022 and June 27, 2022, Riverview received two private demand letters from purported shareholders in connection with the proposed Mergers. The demand letters seek certain supplemental disclosures and threaten to assert claims under the federal securities laws against Riverview and Westrock, if the disclosures are not made. In addition, on August 2, 2022, a purported stockholder of the Company filed a complaint in the Chancery Court of Shelby County, Tennessee, captioned Garfield v. R. Brad Martin, et. al., Case No. CH-22-1097, alleging claims that Riverview's public disclosures concerning the proposed Mergers omitted allegedly material information that the complaint asserts was required to be disclosed. The complaint names Riverview, each of its current directors, Messrs. R. Brad Martin, Charles Slatery, Leslie Starr Keating, Mark Edmunds, and Willie Gregory, and Westrock as defendants and alleges, among other things, claims for purported violations of the Tennessee Securities Act of 1980 and fraudulent and negligent misrepresentation and concealment under Tennessee law. The deadline for Riverview to respond to the complaint has not yet passed. The Company believes that the allegations in the complaint and demand letters are without merit.

While Riverview believes that the disclosures in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, including those set forth in the Proxy Statement, comply fully with applicable law, Riverview has determined to voluntarily supplement the Proxy Statement with the supplemental disclosures set forth below (the “Supplemental Disclosures”). Nothing in the Supplemental Disclosures shall be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein. To the contrary, Riverview specifically denies all allegations in the litigation that any additional disclosure was or is required.

SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES TO DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT

These disclosures should be read in connection with the Proxy Statement, which should be read in its entirety. To the extent that information herein differs from or updates information contained in the Proxy Statement, the information contained herein supersedes the information contained in the Proxy Statement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Proxy Statement, unless otherwise defined below. All page references in the information below are to pages in the Proxy Statement.

The following supplemental disclosure amends and restates in its entirety the fourth and fifth full paragraph on page 137 of the definitive proxy statement concerning the Background of the Merger:

On April 27, 2021, Mr. Martin traveled to Little Rock, Arkansas to meet with representatives of Stephens, Inc. (“Stephens”), an investment bank, to discuss their participation in the underwriting group for the Riverview initial public offering. While Mr. Martin was in Little Rock, Mr. Ford met Mr. Martin for lunch after the meeting with Stephens, and shared elements of the history of Westrock, including its evolution from a mission trip to Rwanda. Mr. Ford said that Westrock planned to consider various capital-raising options to support its growth, including an initial public offering, a merger, a private equity investment or a business combination with a special purpose acquisition vehicle as a means of raising capital. Mr. Martin explained that Riverview was not in a position to participate in any capital-raising process at that time but offered to introduce Mr. Ford to a representative of a major global private equity fund (“Private Equity Fund A”), with which Mr. Martin is affiliated as a member of such fund’s board of advisors. Mr. Ford indicated that he might entertain such a conversation in the future, and Mr. Martin and Mr. Ford agreed to stay in touch. Prior to Riverview’s initial public offering, neither Riverview nor anyone on its behalf engaged in any substantive discussions with Westrock or any other party regarding an initial business combination with Riverview.

On June 19, 2021, Mr. Ford and Mr. Martin spoke, and Mr. Ford indicated that there were potential acquisition opportunities emerging in the market that Westrock might wish to consider and would be interested in talking with Private Equity Fund A. Mr. Martin provided an introduction to Private Equity Fund A, with which Mr. Martin is affiliated as a member of such fund’s board of advisors, and a confidentiality agreement between Private Equity Firm A and Westrock was executed on July 8, 2021, pursuant to which Westrock and Private Equity Firm A subsequently shared certain confidential information. In conjunction with Private Equity Fund A’s conversations with Westrock, two executives of Private Equity Fund A met on July 21, 2021 and July 22, 2021 with Mr. Ford and Mr. Martin and discussed the possibility of Private Equity Firm A investing in Westrock as either a bridge to an initial public offering, a preferred stock investment in Westrock as a private company, or a potential joint venture in an acquisition of another company.

The following supplemental disclosure amends and restates in its entirety the fourth, fifth and sixth full paragraph on page 138 of the definitive proxy statement concerning the Background of the Merger:

On August 9, 2021, Mr. Martin had a telephone conversation with Mr. Ford during which he apprised Mr. Ford of the consummation of the Riverview IPO and inquired if Westrock remained interested in considering a potential business combination with a special purpose acquisition vehicle as a means of raising capital, as Mr. Ford had previously indicated during their meeting on April 27, 2021. Following such telephone conversation, on August 10, 2021, Riverview and Westrock entered into a non-disclosure agreement, and on August 12, 2021, Westrock first provided representatives of Riverview with certain confidential information.

On August 19, 2021 and August 20, 2021, Mr. Martin met with the Westrock management team, including, Joe T. Ford, co-Founder and Chairman of Westrock, to discuss Westrock’s business, its plans for growth and the potential for a business combination involving Riverview and Westrock. It was during this time that Mr. Scott Ford and Mr. Martin first engaged in substantive discussions about a potential merger, including ranges of value and structures that would be necessary in order to effect a transaction that would be supported by Riverview and the common and preferred equityholders of Westrock, including BBH, who held a majority of the existing Westrock Preferred Units, whose consent was necessary to approve a business combination.

Following this meeting, Mr. Martin and Stephens held multiple discussions with the boards of Riverview and Westrock to discuss other potential opportunities and to discuss appropriate value and structure dynamics in a prospective business combination between Riverview and Westrock.

The following supplemental disclosure amends and restates in its entirety the fifth full paragraph on page 139 of the definitive proxy statement concerning the Background of the Merger:

On January 5, 2022, the Riverview management team and Riverview’s advisors traveled to Little Rock, Arkansas for management presentations and due diligence. At such meeting, the Riverview management team was joined by members of HF Capital, a potential PIPE investor with whom Mr. Martin has an existing relationship due in part to Mr. Martin’s service as a member of the board of managers of Pilot Travel Centers, LLC, in which HF Capital has a significant equity investment.

The following supplemental disclosure amends and restates in its entirety the third full paragraph on page 140 of the definitive proxy statement concerning the Background of the Merger:

On January 29, 2022, Mr. Martin met with representatives of BBH to share his interest regarding a potential transaction between Riverview and Westrock. At this meeting, Mr. Martin also suggested that in order to secure BBH’s support for a potential transaction, he would consider the potential for BBH to retain a preferred stock interest in the combined company, in conjunction with a substantial capital investment by Riverview and the PIPE Investors, subject to the approval of Westrock’s and Riverview’s board of directors, including as to the terms of such preferred stock. Following the meeting, Mr. Martin and the BBH Investors agreed to discuss the conversion of the existing Westrock Preferred Units held by the BBH Investors for preferred shares of the company resulting from a business combination between Westrock and Riverview.

The following supplemental disclosure amends and restates in its entirety the tenth full paragraph on page 140 of the definitive proxy statement concerning the Background of the Merger:

On February 8, 2022, Mr. Scott Ford, Ms. Elizabeth McLaughlin, Mr. Will Ford and Mr. T. Christopher Pledger of Westrock and Mr. Martin traveled to Knoxville, Tennessee to meet with the staff and principals of HF Capital to present a discussion of Westrock’s history, mission, future financial outlook, benefits of a potential business combination and HF Capital’s participation in a potential PIPE. The same group met on February 9, 2022 in Memphis, Tennessee with representatives of Investment Management Firm A to present a similar discussion as the prior day.

The following supplemental disclosure amends and restates in its entirety the second full paragraph on page 141 of the definitive proxy statement concerning the Background of the Merger:

On February 11, 2022, the Riverview board of directors met to discuss year-end financials and discuss the Riverview’s business combination target search. At this meeting, Mr. Martin discussed the Westrock opportunity to the Riverview board of directors as well as his views on Westrock’s history, mission, operations, future financial outlook and benefits of a potential business combination and made plans for an onsite visit by members of the board of directors.

The following supplemental disclosure amends and restates in its entirety the sixth full paragraph on page 142 of the definitive proxy statement concerning the Background of the Merger:

On March 24, 2022, Riverview’s board of directors convened for its regularly scheduled quarterly meeting, during which time Mr. Martin provided an update on his discussions with Westrock, Riverview’s negotiation of the Transaction Agreement and other ancillary documents and the timeline of a possible transaction and representatives of King & Spalding briefed the directors on their fiduciary duties in connection with a prospective transaction with Westrock or any other target.

Also on March 24, 2022, representatives of Westrock presented Mr. Martin with an executive compensation study prepared by Westrock’s compensation consultant and the terms for the post-Business Combination compensation of each of Messrs. Scott T. Ford, T. Christopher Pledger and William A. Ford, as well as drafts of certain employment agreements to be entered into by such executives and Westrock prior to the Business Combination. Mr. Martin and his advisors provided comments on such compensation arrangements and following negotiation found them to be acceptable and appropriate.

The following supplemental disclosure amends and restates in its entirety the tenth full paragraph on page 142 of the definitive proxy statement concerning the Background of the Merger:

On the evening of April 1, 2022, Riverview’s board of directors met via videoconference, at which all of the directors participated and were joined by members of the Riverview management team and representatives of Stephens and King & Spalding, to consider the terms of the proposed transaction. At this meeting, Stephens provided its analysis of the financial terms and impact of the proposed transaction (see the section titled “—Summary of Riverview Financial Analysis”) and King & Spalding provided a refresher on the fiduciary duties of the board of directors in connection with its consideration of a potential business combination and provided an overview of the Transaction Agreement and ancillary agreements, including a potential timeline from execution to closing. In light of ongoing negotiations, including of the terms of the preferred stock rollover, Riverview’s board of directors did not consider whether to approve the proposed Business Combination at this time.

If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what we anticipate. Many of the important factors that will determine these results are beyond our ability to control or predict. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and, except as otherwise required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the ~~Business~~Mergers ~~Combination~~ or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
