The information in this Item 7.01 and Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

 

Additional Information

 

In connection with the proposed Business Combination, the Company intends to file a registration statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) with the SEC, which will include a proxy statement/prospectus, that will be both the proxy statement to be distributed to holders of the Company’s ordinary shares in connection with the Company’s solicitation of proxies for the vote by the Company’s shareholders with respect to the Business Combination and other matters as may be described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer and sale of the securities to be issued in the Business Combination. After the Registration Statement is declared effective, the Company will mail a definitive proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents to its shareholders. In addition, the Company has filed a definitive proxy statement (the “Extension Proxy”) with respect to the solicitation of proxies relating to a proposal to extend the date by which the Company must complete an initial business combination from September 16, 2017 to December 31, 2017 (the “Extension”). The Company’s shareholders and other interested persons are advised to read the Extension Proxy and, when available, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus included in the Registration Statement and the amendments thereto and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, as these materials will contain important information about Williams Scotsman, the Company and the Business Combination. The Extension Proxy was mailed to shareholders of record as of August 28, 2017 and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus will be mailed to shareholders of the Company as of a record date to be established for voting on the Business Combination. Shareholders may obtain copies of the Extension Proxy and, when available, the proxy statement/prospectus and other documents filed with the SEC that will be incorporated by reference in the proxy statement/prospectus, without charge, at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov, or by directing a request to: Double Eagle Acquisition Corp., 2121 Avenue of the Stars, Suite 2300, Los Angeles, California, Attention: Eli Baker, Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, (310) 209-7280.

A list of the names of those directors and executive officers and a description of their interests in the Company is contained in the Extension Proxy and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, which was filed with the SEC and is available free of charge at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov, or by directing a request to Double Eagle Acquisition Corp., 2121 Avenue of the Stars, Suite 2300, Los Angeles, California 90067, Attention: Eli Baker, Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, at (310) 209-7280.
