Item 8.01 Other Events

 

In connection with the stockholders’ vote at the Annual Meeting 3,395,590 shares of common stock were tendered for redemption. As a result, approximately $38,098,520 (approximately $11.22 per share) has been removed from the Company’s Trust Account to pay such holders, without taking into account additional allocation of payments to cover any tax obligation of the Company, such as franchise taxes, but not including any excise tax, since that date. Following redemptions, the Company has 3,442,121 shares of public common stock outstanding, and approximately $17,873,794 remains in the Trust Account.

 

On June 18 2024, the Company filed a second amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State (the “Charter Amendment”), to extend the date to consummate a business combination until June 21, 2025, as approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting. A copy of the as-filed Charter Amendment is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1.

 

The Company has deposited the initial payment of $50,000 in its trust account established at Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company in connection with its initial public offering, to initially extend the date by which the Company can complete an initial business combination by one month to July 21, 2024.
