Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On March 5, 2021, Fusion Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company” or “we”) issued an unsecured convertible promissory note (the “Sponsor Convertible Note”) to Fusion Sponsor II LLC (the “Sponsor”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $1,500,000 from the Sponsor for ongoing expenses reasonably related to the business of the Company and the consummation of the Business Combination, as defined below. All unpaid principal under the Sponsor Convertible Note will be due and payable in full on the earlier of (i) March 2, 2023 and (ii) the effective date of a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination, involving the Company and one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”) (such earlier date, the “Maturity Date”). The Sponsor will have the option, at any time on or prior to the Maturity Date, to convert any amounts outstanding under the Sponsor Convertible Note into warrants to purchase shares of the Company's Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”), at a conversion price of $1.50 per warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to the same adjustments applicable to the private placement warrants sold concurrently with the Company’s initial public offering. As previously disclosed, John James, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, is the sole managing member of the Sponsor.

 

The foregoing description of the Sponsor Convertible Note does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the Sponsor Convertible Note, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On March 2, 2021, the Company consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 50,000,000 units (the “Units”), including the issuance of 6,500,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ partial 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 (the “Class A Common Stock”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $500,000,000.

 

On March 2, 2021, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 7,133,333 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $10,700,000.

 

A total of $500,000,000, comprised of $491,300,000 of the proceeds from the IPO (which amount includes $18,800,000 of the underwriters’ deferred discount) and $8,700,000 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 March 2, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO 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.
