Section 1. Authorized Shares.

The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is One Hundred Thirty-Five Million (135,000,000) shares, consisting of:

(a) Ten Million (10,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”) and thereafter as may be established by the Board of Directors with respect to any series thereof in the applicable Preferred Stock Designation;

(b) One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”); and

(c) Twenty-Five Million (25,000,000) shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Common Stock” and together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”);

Upon this Certificate of Incorporation becoming effective pursuant to the DGCL (the “Effective Time”), every 12 shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock and every 12 shares of the Corporation’s Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and held of record by each stockholder of the Corporation or issued and held in treasury immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the respective holders thereof, be reclassified as and combined into one share of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable (the “Reverse Split”); provided, however, no fractional shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock shall be issued in connection with the Reverse Split. In lieu thereof, if, upon aggregating all of the shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, held by a record holder of Common Stock or Preferred Stock immediately following the Reverse Split such holder would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, as a result of the Reverse Split, the Corporation shall issue to such holder an additional fraction of a share of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, as is necessary to round the number of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, held by such holder up to the nearest whole share, such that no holder will hold fractional shares following the Reverse Split. Each certificate that prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall, from and after the Effective Time, represent the number of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, into which the shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, were reclassified and combined in the Reverse Split (including those fractional shares issued by the Corporation in connection with the Reverse Split to round the number of shares held by such holder at the Effective Time up to the nearest whole share).

The Preferred Stock and the Common Stock shall have the designations, rights, powers and preferences and the qualifications, restrictions and limitations thereof, if any, set forth below.

Section 2. Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) is authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by law and by filing a certificate pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Delaware (such certificate being hereinafter referred to as a “Preferred Stock Designation”), to provide, by resolution or resolutions for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series, and with respect to each series, to establish the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the voting powers (if any), designations, powers, preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, if any, of the shares of each such series, and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. The powers (including voting powers), preferences, and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of each series of Preferred Stock and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, may differ from those of any and all other series at any time outstanding. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, the number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the approval of the Board of Directors and by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in an election of directors, without the separate vote of the holders of the Preferred Stock as a class, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

Section 3. Common Stock.

(a) Voting Rights. Except as otherwise required by the DGCL or as provided by or pursuant to the provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation:

(i) Each holder of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each share of Class A Common Stock held of record by such holder.

(ii) Each holder of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each share of Class B Common Stock held of record by such holder.

(iii) Except as otherwise required in this Certificate of Incorporation or by applicable law, the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall vote together as a single class on all matters on which stockholders are generally entitled to vote (and, if any holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to vote together with the holders of Common Stock, as a single class with such holders of Preferred Stock).

(iv) The holders of shares of Common Stock shall not have cumulative voting rights.

(v) The holders of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to vote separately as a class upon any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation (including by merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar event or otherwise) that would increase or decrease the par value of a class of stock or alter or change the powers, preferences, or special rights of a class of stock so as to affect them adversely.

(vi) Except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation or to a Preferred Stock Designation that alters or changes the powers, preferences, rights or other terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other series of Preferred Stock, to vote thereon as a separate class pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation or a Preferred Stock Designation or pursuant to the DGCL as currently in effect or as the same may hereafter be amended.

(b) Dividends. Subject to applicable law and the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of Preferred Stock or any class or series of stock having a preference over or the right to participate with the Class A Common Stock with respect to the payment of dividends in cash, stock or property of the Corporation, such dividends may be declared and paid on the Class A Common Stock out of the assets of the Corporation that are by law available therefor at such times and in such amounts as the Board of Directors in its discretion shall determine. Dividends shall not be declared or paid on the Class B Common Stock.

(c) Liquidation, Dissolution, etc. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of the Corporation as required by law and of the preferential and other amounts, if any, to which the holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled, the holders of all outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to receive the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock held by each such stockholder. The holders of shares of Class B Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to receive any assets of the Corporation in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation.

(d) Reclassification. Neither the Class A Common Stock nor the Class B Common Stock may be subdivided, split, consolidated, reclassified, or otherwise changed unless contemporaneously therewith the other class of Common Stock and the Common Units of Real Good Foods, LLC (the “LLC”) are subdivided, consolidated, reclassified, or otherwise changed in the same proportion and in the same manner.

(e) Exchange. The holders of Class B Common Stock other than the Corporation shall, to the extent provided in the applicable Exchange Agreement and the LLC Agreement (each, defined below) and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Exchange Agreement and the LLC Agreement, have the right to exchange the LLC’s Class B Units and/or Class C Units (collectively, the “Exchangeable LLC Units”) held by them for the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Class A Common Stock determined in accordance with the terms of the applicable Exchange Agreement. Upon the exchange of a Class B or a Class C Unit for one share of Class A Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Exchange Agreement and the LLC Agreement, the exchanging holder shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Corporation or any holder of Class B Common Stock transfer one share of Class B Common Stock to the Corporation, which shall be automatically retired and cancelled and shall no longer be outstanding. The Corporation shall at all times, when any shares of Class B Common Stock, Class B Units and/or Class C Units shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exchange of all outstanding Class B Units and Class C Units into shares of Class A Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the applicable Exchange Agreement and the LLC Agreement. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the exchange of all outstanding Class B Units and Class C Units, the Corporation will take such corporate actions within its power as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to cause this certificate of incorporation to be amended so as to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock to such number as shall be sufficient for such purpose. “Exchange Agreements” means (i) that certain Exchange Agreement, dated November 4, 2021, among the Corporation, the LLC and holders of membership units of the LLC party thereto, as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time and (ii) that certain Exchange Agreement, dated September 20, 2024, among the Corporation, the LLC and holders of membership units of the LLC party thereto, as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time. “LLC Agreement” means that certain Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of the LLC, dated September 20, 2024, as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time. In the event that no holder of the Class B Units or Class C Units as of the date hereof (an “Existing Owner”) nor any of their respective successors, assigns, and respective transferees permitted in accordance with Section 3(i) of this Article Four, nor any holder of Class C Units issued subsequent to the date hereof pursuant to the transactions described in the applicable Exchange Agreement (the Existing Owners together with such persons, collectively, “Permitted Unit Owners”) owns any Class B Units or Class C Units that are exchangeable pursuant to the applicable Exchange Agreement, then all shares of Class B Common Stock will be cancelled for no consideration, and the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such shares and such shares shall not be re-issued by the Corporation.

(f) Transfers of Class B Common Stock. A holder of Class B Common Stock may surrender shares of Class B Common Stock to the Corporation for no consideration at any time. Following the surrender of any shares of Class B Common Stock to the Corporation, the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such shares and such shares shall not be re-issued by the Corporation. Other than the foregoing, no share of Class B Common Stock may be sold, exchanged or otherwise transferred, other than in connection with (i) the exchange of a Class B Unit or Class C Unit as set forth in Section 3(e) of Article Four hereof and in the applicable Exchange Agreement and the LLC Agreement, and (ii) transfers permitted by Section 3(i) of Article Four; however, in connection with any such transfer of Class B Common Stock, such holder must also simultaneously transfer an equal number of such holder’s Class B Units or Class C Units (as such numbers may be adjusted to reflect equitably any stock split, subdivision, combination or similar change with respect to the Class B Common Stock or Class B Units and Class C Units) to such transferee in compliance with the LLC Agreement. In the event that any outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock are sold, exchanged or otherwise transferred other than as provided in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), or such outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock shall otherwise cease to be held by a holder of a corresponding number, based on the exchange rate then in effect, of Class B Units or Class C Units (including a transferee of a Class B Unit or Class C Unit) for any reason, such shares of Class B Common Stock shall upon such sale, exchange or other transfer, or upon ceasing to be held by such holder, automatically and without further action on the part of the Corporation or any holder of Class B Common Stock be transferred to the Corporation for no consideration and thereupon shall be automatically retired and cancelled and shall no longer be outstanding. Upon a determination by the Board of Directors that a person has attempted or may attempt to transfer or to acquire Class B Common Stock in violation of this section, the Board of Directors may take such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect to such transfer or acquisition on the books and records of the Corporation, including without limitation to cause the Transfer Agent to record the purported owner’s transferor as the record owner of the shares, and to institute proceedings to enjoin or rescind any such transfer or acquisition. The Board of Directors shall have all powers necessary to implement the restrictions on the Class B Common Stock set forth herein, including without limitation the power to prohibit the transfer of any shares of Class B Common Stock in violation thereof.

(g) No Preemptive or Subscription Rights. No holder of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to preemptive or subscription rights.

(h) Class B Units and Class C Units. The aggregate number of shares of Class B Common Stock registered in the name of each Permitted Class B Owner must be equal to the aggregate number of Class B Units and/or Class C Units held of record by such Permitted Class B Owner under the LLC Agreement.

(i) Transfer of Class B Common Stock.

(i) A holder of Class B Common Stock may surrender shares of Class B Common Stock to the Corporation for no consideration at any time. Following the surrender of any shares of Class B Common Stock to the Corporation, the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such shares and such shares shall not be re-issued by the Corporation.

(ii) A holder of Class B Common Stock may transfer shares of Class B Common Stock to any transferee (other than the Corporation) only if, and only to the extent permitted by the LLC Agreement, such holder also simultaneously transfers an equal number of such holder’s Class B Units or Class C Units (as such numbers may be adjusted to reflect equitably any stock split, subdivision, combination or similar change with respect to the Class B Common Stock or Exchangeable LLC Units) to such transferee in compliance with the LLC Agreement. The transfer restrictions described in this Section 3(i)(2) of Article Four are referred to as the “Restrictions”.

(iii) Any purported transfer of shares of Class B Common Stock in violation of the Restrictions shall be null and void. If, notwithstanding the Restrictions, a person shall, voluntarily or involuntarily, purportedly become or attempt to become, the purported owner (“Purported Owner”) of shares of Class B Common Stock in violation of the Restrictions, then the Purported Owner shall not obtain any rights in and to such shares of Class B Common Stock (the “Restricted Shares”), and the purported transfer of the Restricted Shares to the Purported Owner shall not be recognized by the Corporation’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”).

(iv) Upon a determination by the Board of Directors that a person has attempted or may attempt to transfer or to acquire Restricted Shares in violation of the Restrictions, the Board of Directors may take such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect to such transfer or acquisition on the books and records of the Corporation, including without limitation to cause the Transfer Agent to record the Purported Owner’s transferor as the record owner of the Restricted Shares, and to institute proceedings to enjoin or rescind any such transfer or acquisition.

(v) The Board of Directors may, to the extent permitted by law, from time to time establish, modify, amend or rescind, by bylaw or otherwise, regulations and procedures that are consistent with the provisions of this Section 3(i) of Article Four for determining whether any transfer or acquisition of shares of Class B Common Stock would violate the Restrictions and for the orderly application, administration and implementation of the provisions of this Section 3(i) of Article Four. Any such procedures and regulations shall be kept on file with the Secretary of the Corporation and with its Transfer Agent and shall be made available for inspection by any prospective transferee and, upon written request, shall be mailed to holders of shares of Class B Common Stock.

(vi) The Board of Directors shall have all powers necessary to implement the Restrictions, including without limitation the power to prohibit the transfer of any shares of Class B Common Stock in violation thereof.
