Item 8.01 Other Events

On October 19, 2021, Fintech Ecosystem Development Corp., a special purpose acquisition company (the “Company”; Nasdaq: FEXDU), announced the pricing of its initial public offering (the “Offering”) of 10,000,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit. The Offering is scheduled to close on October 22, 2021.

Caltech Trading Corp., a New Jersey corporation (“Caltech”), had expressed to the Company a non-binding interest to purchase up to 9.9% of the units in the Offering. Caltech has elected not to purchase any units in the Offering.

Caltech had also indicated its intention to provide financing to Revofast LLC, the Company’s sponsor (“Sponsor”), in connection with the Sponsor’s purchase of the Company’s warrants in a private placement (the “Private Placement Warrants”) that would close simultaneously with the closing of the Offering. Caltech has informed Sponsor that it will not provide that financing to the Sponsor.

Caltech is also a party to an agreement to purchase from the Company, at the time of the Company’s initial business combination, forward purchase units for a minimum aggregate purchase price of $80.0 million and a maximum aggregate purchase price of up to $90.0 million (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”). There is no assurance that Caltech will comply with its obligations under the Forward Purchase Agreement. If Caltech does not comply with its obligations, it could have an adverse effect on the Company’s ability to complete an initial business combination.

As a result of the foregoing, Sponsor expects to admit a third party institutional investor as a new member (the “Investor”) which would make a capital contribution to the Sponsor to raise the funds required to purchase the Private Placement Warrants. As a result, the Investor would own 95% of the equity of the Sponsor. Dr. Saiful Kandaker, D.M., the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, would own 5% of the equity of the Sponsor. Dr. Khandaker will remain the Company’s CEO and will remain the sole managing member with voting and dispositive control over the Sponsor’s securities.
