Environmental Impact Acquisition Corp., (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Current Report on this Form 8-K/A for the Initial Public Offering date of January 19, 2021 (the “First Amendment”), as originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 25, 2021 (the “Original Form 8-K”) to amend and restate the Company’s audited balance sheet and accompanying footnotes as of January 19, 2021 on Form 8-K, as further described below.

This amended and restated report on Form 8-K/A is presented as of the filing date of the Original Form 8-K and does not reflect events occurring after that date, or modify or update disclosures in any way other than as required to reflect the restatement as described below. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A should be read in conjunction with our filings with the SEC subsequent to the date on which we filed the Original Form 8-K.

The Company is filing this First Amendment on Form 8-K/A to reflect a restatement of the Company’s audited balance sheet as of January 19, 2021, to correct errors in the Company’s classification of public shares as permanent equity as well as to correct errors in the Company’s classification of warrants as liabilities as further described below.

All of the shares held by the Company’s public stockholders (the “Public Shares”) contain a redemption feature which provides each holder of such shares with the opportunity to have their shares redeemed, and management has no control over which Public Shares will be redeemed. ASC 480-10-S99-3A provides that redemption provisions not solely within the control of the issuer require shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Furthermore, ASC 480-10-25-6(b) provides guidance stating that in determining if an instrument is mandatorily redeemable, a provision that defers redemption until a specified liquidity level is reached would not affect classification of the instrument. As such, management has identified errors made in the historical financial statements where, at the closing of the Company’s initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), the Company improperly valued its Class A common stock subject to possible redemption. The Company previously determined the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption to be equal to the redemption value, while also taking into consideration a redemption cannot result in net tangible assets being less than $5,000,001. Management determined that the Public Shares can be redeemed or become redeemable subject to the occurrence of future events considered outside the Company’s control. Therefore, management concluded that the redemption value should include all Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, resulting in the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption being equal to their redemption value. As a result, management has noted a reclassification adjustment related to temporary equity and permanent equity as of the Initial Public Offering date and all subsequent reporting periods.

As a result, the Company’s management, together with the Audit Committee, determined that the Company’s financial statements and other financial data as of January 19, 2021 (the Initial Public Offering date) should be restated. This restatement results in a change in the initial carrying value of the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption with the offset recorded to additional paid-in capital (to the extent available), accumulated deficit and Class A common stock. Further, there is no impact to the reported amounts for total assets related to this restatement.

The Company previously accounted for its outstanding Public Warrants (as defined in Note 9) and Private Placement Warrants (collectively, with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) issued in connection with its Initial Public Offering as components of equity instead of as derivative liabilities.

On April 12, 2021, the Acting Director of the Division of Corporation Finance and Acting Chief Accountant of the Securities and Exchange Commission together issued a statement regarding the accounting and reporting considerations for warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies entitled “Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (“SPACs”)” (the “SEC Statement”). Specifically, the SEC Statement focused on certain settlement terms and provisions related to certain tender offers following a business combination, which terms are similar to those contained in the warrant agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”).

In further consideration of the SEC Statement, the Company’s management further evaluated the Warrants under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. ASC Section 815-40-15 addresses equity versus liability treatment and classification of equity-linked financial instruments, including warrants, and states that a warrant may be classified as a component of equity only if, among other things, the warrant is indexed to the issuer’s common stock. Under ASC Section 815-40-15, a warrant is not indexed to the issuer’s common stock if the terms of the warrant require an adjustment to the exercise price upon a specified event and that event is not an input to the fair value of the warrant. Based on management’s evaluation, the Company’s audit committee, in consultation with management, concluded that the Company’s Private Placement Warrants are not indexed to the Company’s common stock in the manner contemplated by ASC Section 815-40-15 because the holder of the instrument is not an input into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares. In addition, based on management’s evaluation, the Company’s audit committee, in consultation with management, concluded that the tender offer provision fails the “classified in stockholders’ equity” criteria as contemplated by ASC Section 815-40-25.

As a result of the above, the Company should have classified the Warrants as derivative liabilities in its previously issued financial statement as of January 19, 2021. Under this accounting treatment, the Company is required to measure the fair value of the Warrants at the end of each reporting period as well as re-evaluate the treatment of the Warrants and recognize changes in the fair value from the prior period in the Company’s operating results for the current period.

The financial information that has been previously filed or otherwise reported for this period is superseded by the information in this First Amendment, and the financial statement and related financial information contained in the January 19, 2021 IPO 8-K should no longer be relied upon. On November 24, 2021, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the non-reliance on the financial statement included in the Original Form 8-K.

In accordance with applicable SEC rules, this First Amendment on Form 8-K/A includes an updated signature page.

Refer to Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statement of this Form 8-K/A for additional information and for the summary of the accounting impacts of these adjustments to the Company’s balance sheet as of January 19, 2021.

The Company identified a material weakness in internal controls related to the accounting for complex financial instruments issued in connection with our initial public offering. As a result of the restatement described in this First Amendment on Form 8-K/A, the Company has concluded there was a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting at the time the abovementioned financial statement was issued, and its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the time the abovementioned financial statement was issued.

On January 19, 2021, Environmental Impact Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 20,700,000 units (the “Units”) including 2,700,000 Units issued to the underwriter’s upon full exercise of their over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant of the Company (“Warrant”), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $207,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to a Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and HB Strategies LLC, the Company completed the private sale of 2,000,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to HB Strategies LLC at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $2,000,000 (the “Private Placement”). The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants included in the Units sold as part of the Units in the IPO, except as otherwise disclosed in the Registration Statement. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale.

A total of $207,000,000 comprised of $206,750,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and $250,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.

An audited balance sheet as of January 19, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO, including full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option, and the Private Placement has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
