Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Agreement

As previously disclosed on the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Lionheart Acquisition Corporation II, a Delaware corporation ("LCAP" or, the "Company"), with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 13, 2022 (the "May 13 Form 8-K"), the Company entered into a non-binding term sheet (the "FEF Term Sheet") with an affiliate of Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. ("Cantor") pursuant to which Cantor would purchase up to 3,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of LCAP (the "Shares") at a per share purchase price at or below the redemption price for the Shares (the "Redemption Price") prior to the closing of LCAP's business combination (the "Business Combination") with MSP Recovery, LLC and certain of its affiliates ("MSP", which term also refers to the post-combination company).

On May 17, 2022, LCAP and CF Principal Investments LLC ("CF"), an affiliate of Cantor, entered into an agreement (the "Confirmation") for an OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction (the "Transaction"). The Confirmation confirms the terms and conditions of the Transaction entered into between CF and LCAP.

Pursuant to the terms of the Confirmation, CF agreed to (a) transfer to MSP for cancellation any warrants to purchase Shares received as a result of being the stockholder of record of a Share as of the close of business on the closing date of the Business Combination, pursuant to the previously announced and declared LCAP dividend and (b) waive any redemption right that would require the redemption of the Subject Shares (as defined below) in exchange for a pro rata amount of the funds held in LCAP's trust account (the "Trust").

Immediately following the closing of the Business Combination, MSP will transfer from the Trust to the Escrow Account (as defined in the Confirmation) an amount equal to (a) the aggregate number of such Subject Shares, multiplied by (b) the per share redemption price for Shares out of the Trust (the "Forward Price") (such actual aggregate cash amount, the "Prepayment Amount"), as a prepayment to CF of the amount to be paid to CF in settlement of the Transaction upon the Valuation Date (as defined below) for the number of Shares owned by CF at the closing of the Business Combination (the "Subject Shares").

After the closing of the Business Combination, CF may sell the Subject Shares at its sole discretion in one or more transactions, publicly or privately, at any time prior to the Valuation Date (the "Valuation Date"). Any such sale shall constitute an optional early termination of the Transaction (an "Optional Early Termination"). Any Subject Shares sold by CF during the term of the Transaction will cease to be Subject Shares (the "OET Shares"). CF will give written notice to MSP of any sale of Subject Shares by CF within one business day of the date of such sale, such notice to include the date of the sale, the number of Subject Shares sold, and the sale price per Subject Share. In connection with each such Optional Early Termination, on the Valuation Date (as defined below), (a) CF will receive from the Escrow Account an amount equal to the positive excess, if any, of (x) the product of the Redemption Price and the aggregate number of OET Shares over (y) an amount equal to the proceeds received by CF in connection with sales of the OET Shares, and (b) the Company will receive from the Escrow Account the amount set forth in (y) above.

After the closing of the Business Combination, CF may also buy and sell additional shares for its own account or on behalf of third parties.

The Valuation Date for the Transaction will be the earlier to occur of (a) the five (5) month anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination and (b) the date specified by the Seller in a written notice (not earlier than the day such notice is effective) of the occurrence of a certain enumerated events, including: (i) the surviving entity of the Business Combination has a resale registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the resale of any Shares acquired by CF with respect to the Company's so called "Committed Equity Facility", (ii) the Business Combination fails to close on or before August 18, 2022, and (iii) the tenth business day following a notice of termination by the Company.

The foregoing description is only a summary of the Confirmation and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Confirmation, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Company Common Stock Purchase Agreement

As previously disclosed on the May 13 Form 8-K, the Company entered into an additional non-binding term sheet (the "CEF Term Sheet") with an affiliate of Cantor related to a committed equity facility (the "Facility").

On May 17, 2022, the Company entered into a Company Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with CF, related to the Facility. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, after the closing of the Business Combination, the Company will have the right to sell to CF from time to time at its option up to $1 billion in Shares, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Sales of the shares of MSP's common stock to CF under the Purchase Agreement, and the timing of any such sales, will be determined by MSP from time to time in its sole discretion (subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein) and will depend on a variety of factors, including, among other things, market conditions, the trading price of the common stock, as well as determinations by MSP about the use of proceeds of such common stock sales. The net proceeds from any such sales under the Purchase Agreement will depend on the frequency with, and the price at, which the shares of common stock are sold to CF.

Upon the initial satisfaction of the conditions to CF's obligation to purchase shares of common stock set forth under the Purchase Agreement (the "Commencement"), including that a registration statement registering the resale by CF of the shares of common stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), purchased pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (the "Resale Registration Statement") is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and a final prospectus relating thereto is filed with the SEC, MSP will have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time, at its sole discretion and on the terms and subject to the limitations contained in the Purchase Agreement, until no later than the first day of the month following the 36-month anniversary of the date that the Resale Registration Statement is declared effective, to direct CF to purchase up to a specified maximum amount of common stock as set forth in the Purchase Agreement by delivering written notice to CF prior to the commencement of trading on any trading day. The purchase price of the common stock that MSP elects to sell to CF pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will be 98% of the VWAP of the common stock during the applicable purchase date on which MSP has timely delivered a written notice to CF, directing it to purchase common stock under the Purchase Agreement.

MSP has the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time after the Commencement, at no additional cost or penalty, upon three (3) trading days' prior written notice.

The foregoing description is only a summary of the Purchase Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Registration Rights Agreement

On May 17, 2022, LCAP entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with CF related to the Facility. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, LCAP has agreed to provide CF with certain registration rights with respect to the common stock issued under the Purchase Agreement and the Facility, following the closing of the Business Combination. LCAP has agreed that MSP shall file the Resale Registration Statement within thirty (30) days after the closing of the Business Combination and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, but not later than sixty (60) calendar days following the filing deadline if MSP receives notice from the SEC, that it will not review the Resale Registration Statement (or ninety (90) calendar days following the filing deadline if the SEC does review).

The foregoing description is only a summary of the Registration Rights Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
