Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 23, 2021, Arogo Capital Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an underwriting agreement by and between the Company and EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC, as representative of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference (the “Underwriting Agreement”), relating to the Company’s initial public offering (the “Offering”) of 9,000,000 units (the “Units”) at a price to the public of $10.00 per Unit. 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 redeemable warrant of the Company (“Warrant”), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters in the Offering a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,350,000 additional Units solely to cover over-allotments, if any (the “Option”). The Underwriters exercised the Option in full resulting in the sale of 10,350,000 Units in total and additional gross proceeds of $13.5 million pursuant to the Offering which closed on December 29, 2021. The Offering resulted in gross proceeds of $103.5 million (when including the over-allotment exercise), a portion of which will be placed in a U.S.-based trust account (the “Trust Account”), maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee, as discussed in greater detail below.

 

The foregoing is only a brief description of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement that is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

 

In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement:

 

the Underwriting Agreement;

 

a Warrant Agreement, dated December 23, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 4.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference;

 

a Letter Agreement, dated December 23, 2021, by and among the Company, its officers and directors and the Company’s sponsor, Koo Dom Investment LLC (the “Sponsor”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference;

 

an Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated December 23, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference;

 

a Registration Rights Agreement, dated December 23, 2021, by and among the Company and certain security holders, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.3 hereto and incorporated herein by reference;

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

 

On December 29, 2021, simultaneously with the consummation of the Offering, the Company consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 466,150 Units (the “Private Placement Units”) to Koo Dom Investment LLC, the sponsor of the Company (the “Sponsor”), at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $4,661,500 (the “Private Placement”). No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to the Private Placement. The Private Placement was conducted as a non-public transaction and, as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering, is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units, except that (a) the Private Placement Units and their component securities will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination except to permitted transferees and (b) the warrants included as a component of the Private Placement Units, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, will be entitled to registration rights. If the warrants included as part of the Private Placement Units were exercised in full, the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise thereof would total 466,150 shares of common stock.

 

Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

 

On November 9, 2021, in connection with the Offering, the Company filed its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. A description of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is attached as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated into this Item 5.03 by reference.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events

 

A total of $105,052,500, comprised of the proceeds from the Offering and the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Units, net of the underwriting commissions, discounts, and offering expenses, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account, maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), the funds held in the trust account will not be released from the trust account until the earliest of (a) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, (b) the redemption of any public shares of Class A common stock properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with its initial business combination or certain amendments to the Charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of the public shares of Class A common stock if the Company does not complete its initial business combination within 12 months from the closing of the Offering (or up to 21 months from the closing of the Offering pursuant to the Charter or as extended by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Charter) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, and (c) the redemption of the Company’s public shares of Class A common stock if the Company is unable to complete its initial business combination within 12 months from the closing of the Offering (or 15 months if we have filed a proxy statement, registration statement or similar filing for an initial business combination within 12 months from the consummation of the Offering but have not completed the initial business combination within such 12-month period, or up to 21 months if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination, as described in more detail in the Charter incorporated by reference here and pursuant to the Charter or as extended by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Charter), subject to applicable law.
