SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH & AUSTIN, TEXAS – January 26, 2022 – SilverBox Engaged Merger Corp I (Nasdaq: SBEA) (“SilverBox-Engaged” or “we”), a special purpose acquisition company that is sponsored by SilverBox Capital LLC (“SilverBox Capital”) and Engaged Capital LLC (“Engaged Capital”), reminds its stockholders to vote in favor of the previously announced proposed business combination (the “Business Combination”) with Authentic Brands LLC, the parent company of Black Rifle Coffee Company (“Black Rifle Coffee,” “BRCC” or the “Company”), a rapidly growing and mission-driven premium coffee company founded to support Veterans, active-duty military, first responders and serve an expanding customer base by connecting consumers with great coffee and a unique brand experience.

Stockholders who owned common stock of SBEA as of the close of business on January 3, 2022 (the “Record Date”), may vote their shares to approve the Business Combination with Authentic Brands LLC ahead of its special meeting (the “Special Meeting”) on February 3, 2022.

As a reminder, the proposed business combination will place up to $225 million in cash on BRCC’s balance sheet to accelerate the implementation of its digital-first, omnichannel strategy and support continued rapid growth. At $10 per share, the transaction values Black Rifle Coffee at a pro forma enterprise value of approximately $1.7 billion – representing approximately four times projected 2023 revenues. SilverBox-Engaged and Black Rifle Coffee believe this is an extremely compelling valuation and discount for a growing lifestyle brand that benchmarks favorably to its growth peers.

HOW TO VOTE

Every stockholder’s vote is important, regardless of the number of shares held. Accordingly, all SBEA stockholders who held shares as of the Record Date who have not yet voted are encouraged to do so as soon as possible so that their votes are received by SBEA no later than 11:59 pm Eastern Time on February 2, 2022. For the avoidance of doubt, SBEA stockholders who owned shares as of the Record Date and subsequently sold all or a portion of their shares are STILL entitled to vote and are encouraged to do so.

The special Meeting will be held virtually at 10:00 am Eastern Time on February 3, 2022, and will be accessible by visiting: https://www.cstproxy.com/silverboxengagedi/2022.
