Based on the results of the Special Meeting, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain other closing conditions as described in the Proxy Statement, the transactions (the "Transactions") contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are expected to be consummated on October 20, 2021. Following the consummation of the Transactions, the common stock and warrants of New WeWork (as such term is defined in the Proxy Statement) are expected to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") under the symbols "WE" and "WE WS," respectively, on October 21, 2021.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On October 19, 2021, BowX and WeWork issued a press release announcing the results relating to the Special Meeting and the closing of the Transactions. A copy of the press release is being furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.

The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to this Item 7.01, including the exhibit attached hereto, is intended to be furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.




Item 8.01 Other Events

Upon closing of the Transactions, WeWork is expected to receive approximately $1.3 billion in gross cash proceeds consisting of approximately $333.0 million from the trust account (the "Trust Account Proceeds"), $150.0 million from the Backstop Investment (as defined below and together with the Trust Account Proceeds, the "Combined Trust and Backstop Proceeds") and $800.0 million from the PIPE Investment. $333.0 million from the Combined Trust and Backstop Proceeds is attributable to the amount remaining in the trust account after a total of 15,006,786 shares of Class A Stock were presented for redemption in connection with the Special Meeting (the "Redemptions"). The remaining $150,000,000 million from the Combined Trust and Backstop Proceeds is attributable to the BowX backstop subscription agreement (the "Backstop Subscription Agreement") with DTZ Worldwide Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cushman & Wakefield U.S., Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Backstop Investor"), pursuant to which, and on the terms and subject to the conditions of which, the Backstop Investor has committed to subscribe for the number of shares of Class A Shares equal to the amount of the Redemptions, subject to a cap of 15,000,000 Class A Shares (the "Cap"), as previously disclosed on our Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 13, 2021. The purchase price for such Class A Shares is equal to $10.00 per share multiplied by the number of Redemptions, subject to the Cap, for an aggregate purchase price of up to $150,000,000 (the "Backstop Investment"). It is expected that, substantially concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination, the Backstop Investor will subscribe for 15,000,000 Class A Shares for $150,000,000.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this communication are "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such "forward-looking statements" with respect to the proposed transaction between WeWork and BowX include statements regarding the benefits and timing of the transaction, the anticipated timing of the trading of the combined company and

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

expectations regarding the combined company's position to serve the multi-trillion office space market and enable the future of work. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words "believe," "project," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "strategy," "future," "opportunity," "plan," "pipeline," "may," "should," "will," "would," "will be," "will continue," "will likely result," and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this communication, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the transaction may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of BowX's securities, (ii) the risk that the transaction may not be completed by BowX's business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline if sought by BowX, (iii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the transaction, including receipt of certain governmental and regulatory approvals, (iv) the lack of a third party valuation in determining whether or not to pursue the proposed transaction, (v) the inability to complete the PIPE investment, (vi) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement, (vii) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transaction on WeWork's business relationships, operating results, and business generally, (viii) risks that the proposed transaction disrupts current plans and operations of WeWork and potential difficulties in WeWork employee retention as a result of the transaction, (ix) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against WeWork or against BowX related to the Merger Agreement or the proposed transaction, (x) the ability to maintain the listing of BowX's securities on a national securities exchange, (xi) the price of BowX's securities may be volatile due to a variety of factors, including changes in the competitive and regulated industries in which BowX plans to operate or WeWork operates, variations in operating performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting BowX's or WeWork's business, WeWork's inability to implement its business plan or meet or exceed its financial projections and changes in the combined capital structure, (xii) changes in general economic conditions, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and (xiii) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the proposed transaction, and identify and realize additional opportunities. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the registration statement on Form S-4 discussed above, the proxy statement/prospectus and other documents filed or that may be filed by BowX from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and WeWork and BowX assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Neither WeWork nor BowX gives any assurance that either WeWork or BowX, or the combined company, will achieve its expectations.
