Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

CGC initially purchased the shares of the subsidiaries of Corsair Components (Cayman) Ltd., which was the predecessor of the Issuer, in August 2017 for aggregate consideration of approximately $550 million.

On November 15, 2022, CGC agreed to purchase 2,121,212 shares (the “CGC Purchased Shares”) of the Issuer’s Common Stock in the Issuer’s underwritten public offering of an aggregate of 4,545,455 shares (the “Offering Shares”) of the Issuer’s Common Stock pursuant to the Issuer’s final prospectus supplement, dated November 14, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on November 16, 2022. The Offering Shares, including the CGC Purchased Shares, were sold to purchasers, including CGC, at an offering price of $16.50 per share. CGC received the CGC Purchased Shares on November 17, 2022.

Upon the consummation of the Issuer’s underwritten public offering, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned 56,300,771 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.

The source of funds for such transactions was capital contributions from investors in CGC.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

The responses set forth in Items 3 and 6 hereof are incorporated by reference in their entirety.

The Reporting Persons acquired the shares of Common Stock reported here for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis, and may determine (1) to acquire additional securities of the Issuer, through open market purchases, private agreements or otherwise, or (2) to dispose of all or a portion of the securities of the Issuer owned by them through public offerings (including pursuant to the resale registration statement filed by the Issuer) or private transactions, or (3) to take any other available course of action.

CGC controls a majority of the voting power of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock. Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement (as defined in Item 6), CGC currently has the right to designate the chairman of the Issuer’s Board of Directors and to nominate five directors to the Issuer’s Board of Directors. Accordingly, CGC has exercised its nomination right with respect to three directors—Messrs. Anup Bagaria, George L. Majoros, Jr. and Stuart A. Martin—and has designated Mr. Majoros to be the chairman of the Issuer’s Board of Directors. Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, CGC has designated each of Messrs. Bagaria and Majoros to serve on the Issuer’s compensation committee and each of Messrs. Bagaria, Majoros and Martin to serve on the Issuer’s nominating and corporate governance committee.

From time to time, the Reporting Persons intend to engage in discussions with the Board of Directors of the Issuer and/or members of the Issuer’s management team concerning a broad range of operational and strategic matters, including, without limitation, the Issuer’s business, operations, capital structure, governance, management and strategy as well as potential financings, business combinations, strategic alternatives and other matters concerning the Issuer, including transactions in which the Reporting Persons may seek to participate and potentially engage. The Reporting Persons may communicate with other stockholders or third parties regarding the foregoing.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Reporting Persons specifically reserve the right to change their intention with respect to any or all of such matters. In reaching any decision as to their course of action (as well as to the specific elements thereof), the Reporting Persons currently expect that they would take into consideration a variety of factors, including, but not limited to the Issuer’s business and prospects, other developments concerning the Issuer and its businesses generally, other business opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, developments with respect to the business of the Reporting Persons, changes in law and government regulations, changes in tax laws and related regulations or the application thereof to the Company or the Reporting Persons, legal and regulatory developments, general economic conditions and money and stock market conditions, including the market price of the securities of the Issuer.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

The information set forth in Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 6.

Investor Rights Agreement

On September 22, 2020, in connection with the Issuer’s initial public offering, the Issuer and CGC entered into an investor rights agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”). The Investor Rights Agreement grants CGC the right to designate the chairman of the Issuer’s board of directors for so long as CGC and its affiliates beneficially own at least 20% of the Issuer’s common stock. CGC is also able to nominate five directors to the Issuer’s board of directors as long as CGC and its affiliates beneficially own at least 50% of the Issuer’s common stock, four directors as long as CGC and its affiliates beneficially own at least 40% and less than 50% of the Issuer’s common stock, three directors as long as CGC and its affiliates beneficially own at least 30% and less than 40% of the Issuer’s common stock, two directors as long as CGC and its affiliates beneficially own at least 20% and less than 30% of the Issuer’s common stock, and one director so long as CGC and its affiliates beneficially own at least 10% and less than 20% of the Issuer’s common stock. Furthermore, as long as CGC and its affiliates beneficially own at least 20% of the Issuer’s common stock, a change to the size of the board of directors requires approval by a majority of the CGC director designees. In addition, in the event a vacancy on the board of directors is created by the resignation of an CGC director designee, a majority of the remaining CGC director designees will have the right to have the vacancy filled by a new CGC director-designee. If there are no CGC director designees on the board of directors, the vacancy will be filled by a nominee designated by CGC. As long as CGC and its affiliates beneficially own at least 50% of the Issuer’s common stock, directors may be removed with or without cause upon a majority vote of stockholders. Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, as long as CGC and its affiliates beneficially own at least 20% of the Issuer’s common stock, CGC director designees will serve on the compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee, subject to applicable Nasdaq rules.

In addition, the Issuer’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws permits, for as long as affiliates of CGC maintain beneficial ownership of at least 50% of the Issuer’s outstanding common stock, stockholder action by majority written consent, special meetings to be called by a majority of stockholders and amendments to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws to be approved by a majority of stockholders.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Issuer’s initial public offering, the Issuer also entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with CGC, certain stockholders and other persons who may become party thereto. Subject to certain conditions, the Registration Rights Agreement provides certain affiliates of CGC with two “demand” registrations per year in the initial 12 months following the date of the Issuer’s initial public offering and three “demand” registrations per year from and after the date that is 12 months after the Issuer’s initial public offering; provided, that if any time after the 12 months following the Issuer’s initial public offering, the Issuer is not eligible to file a Form S-3 shelf registration statement or for any other reason the “demand” registration statement is required to be filed on Form S-1, the Issuer will only be required to effect “two” demand registrations per year. In addition, the Issuer is required to file a shelf registration statement to register CGC’s shares whenever the Issuer is eligible to file a Form S-3 shelf registration statement, and is required to file an automatic shelf registration statement to the extent that it is qualified to do so. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, all holders of registrable securities party thereto are provided with customary unlimited “piggyback” registration rights following an initial public offering, with certain exceptions. The Registration Rights Agreement also provides that the Issuer will pay certain expenses of these holders relating to such registrations and indemnify them against certain liabilities which may arise under the Securities Act.

Lock-Up Agreement

In connection with the Issuer’s underwritten public offering, which was completed on November 17, 2022, the Reporting Persons agreed not to sell or transfer any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by CGC without first obtaining the written consent of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (the “Underwriter”), subject to certain exceptions, for a period of six months after the date of the Prospectus. In addition, Messrs. Bagaria and Majoros, in their capacities as directors of the Issuer, agreed not to sell or transfer any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned in their individual capacities without first obtaining the written consent of the Underwriter, subject to certain exceptions, for a period ending on the earlier of (i) 90 days after the date of the prospectus for the underwritten offering and (ii) the opening of trading on the first trading day immediately following the Issuer’s public release of earnings for the quarter ending December 31, 2022.

The foregoing descriptions of the Investor Rights Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement and Lock-up Agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Investor Rights Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, and the Lock-up Agreements, respectively, which are filed as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2, 99.3, and 99.4, respectively, to this Schedule 13D and incorporated by reference herein.
