The purchases will be conducted in compliance with the SEC's Rule 10b-18 and applicable legal requirements and will be subject to market conditions and other factors.  AvePoint is not obligated to acquire any particular amount of Apex common stock and such purchases may be suspended at any time, at AvePoint's discretion.\nAbout AvePoint \nAvePoint enables customers to collaborate with confidence.
