As previously disclosed, on March 31, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among Callodine Midco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Callodine Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, (“Corp Merger Sub”), Callodine Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Corp Merger Sub, and Manning & Napier Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

On October 21, 2022, the Company merged with and into Corp Merger Sub (the “Merger”) in accordance with the Merger Agreement, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and each share of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Class A Stock”) and each share of Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Class B Stock” and together with the Class A Stock, the “Shares”), other than dissenting Shares or shares owned by Parent or held in the treasury of the Company, was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive $12.85 in cash, without interest, and subject to deduction for any required withholding tax (the “Merger Consideration”).


CUSIP No. 56382Q102		SCHEDULE 13D/A		Page 4 of 5

In connection with the Merger, each outstanding award of restricted stock units (each, a “Company RSU”) to purchase Shares was cancelled and replaced with a restricted stock unit award (a “TopCo RSU”) with respect to a number of shares of common stock of TopCo that is equal to the number of Shares that were subject to such cancelled Company RSU. Except as otherwise agreed between TopCo and the holder of a replaced Company RSU, the vesting and all other terms and conditions that applied to any such replaced Company RSU shall apply to the replacement TopCo RSU; provided, that such replacement TopCo RSU will be settled upon vesting in a combination of cash and/or shares of TopCo common stock (with the mix of cash and shares determined by Parent in its sole discretion) valued in the aggregate at (x) the number of shares of TopCo common stock underlying such TopCo RSU multiplied by (y) the Merger Consideration, with shares of TopCo common stock valued for such purpose at the then prevailing Book Value Per Share (as defined in the Merger Agreement) at the time of such settlement.

Also in connection with the Merger, each outstanding option to purchase Shares of Class A Stock was cancelled without consideration, except for certain options that were converted into options of an affiliate of Parent (“TopCo”) at closing pursuant to the terms of the Rollover Agreement (as described below).
