Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on January 2, 2024, Israel Acquisitions Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company” or “ISRL”), entered into a business combination agreement on January 2, 2024 (as amended, the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Pomvom Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Israel, whose shares are listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (“Pomvom”).
Pursuant to Section 8.3 of the Business Combination Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing executed by the Company and Pomvom. On April 22, 2024, the Company and Pomvom entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Business Combination Agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company and Pomvom agreed to (i) extend the date by which the Company and Pomvom must determine all members of the board of directors of the post-combination company from April 30, 2024 to June 30, 2024, (ii) extend the date by which an independent compensation consultant shall present a benchmark analysis of the compensation packages for officers and directors of public market companies that are comparable to Pomvom and recommendations for officer and director compensation packages to the Pomvom’s compensation committee and board of directors in connection with their review and approval of such packages from April 30, 2024 to June 30, 2024, and (iii) extend the Minimum Equity Financing Proceeds Termination Date (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) from June 30, 2024 to August 31, 2024.
The foregoing description of the Amendment is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.2 and incorporated by reference herein.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 24, 2024, the Company issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing that a confidential draft of a Registration Statement on Form F-4 (the “Registration Statement”) had been submitted to the SEC, for receipt by the SEC on April 22, 2024, with respect to its proposed business combination (the “Business Combination” and together with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Transactions”) with Pomvom. A copy of the Press Release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The information in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is being “furnished” and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), and shall not be incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language contained in such filing, unless otherwise expressly stated in such filing.
Forward Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target,” “continue,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict” or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. ISRL and Pomvom have based these forward-looking statements on each of its current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of financial and operational metrics and the likelihood and ability of the parties to successfully consummate the Transactions. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this communication, and on the current expectations of Pomvom’s and ISRL’s respective management teams and are not predictions of actual performance. Nothing in this communication should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and may materially differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of ISRL and Pomvom. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about ISRL and Pomvom that may cause each of its actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include changes in domestic and foreign business changes in the competitive environment in which Pomvom operates; Pomvom’s ability to manage its growth prospects, meet its operational and financial targets, and execute its strategy; the impact of any economic disruptions, decreased market demand and other macroeconomic factors, including the effect of a global pandemic, to Pomvom’s business, projected results of operations, financial performance or other financial metrics; Pomvom’s reliance on its senior management team and key employees; risks related to liquidity, capital resources and capital expenditures; failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations or changes in the regulatory environment in which Pomvom operates; the outcome of any potential litigation, government and regulatory proceedings, investigations and inquiries that Pomvom may face; assumptions or analyses used for Pomvom’s forecasts proving to be incorrect and causing its actual operating and financial results to be significantly below its forecasts, including as a result of, among other things, the inability to sign new contracts or secure necessary financial resources as anticipated; an acquisition not occurring as planned and negatively affecting operating results; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the Transactions, including the risk that any required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect Present Experience Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Present Experience”), which will be the combined company upon closing of the Transactions, or the expected benefits of the Transactions or that the approval of the shareholders of ISRL is not obtained; the risk that shareholders of ISRL could elect to have their shares redeemed by ISRL, thus leaving Present Experience with insufficient cash to complete the Transactions or grow its business; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Pomvom or ISRL; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Transactions; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to Pomvom; the effects of competition; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the ability of Pomvom to manage expenses and recruit and retain key employees; the ability of ISRL or Present Experience to issue equity or equity linked securities in connection with the Transactions or in the future; the outcome of any potential litigation, government and regulatory proceedings, investigations and inquiries; a potential U.S. government shutdown; the impact of certain geopolitical events, including wars in Ukraine and the surrounding region and the war between Israel and Hamas and conflict in the Middle East; the impact of a future pandemic on Pomvom, ISRL or Present Experience’s projected results of operations, financial performance or other financial metrics, or on any of the foregoing risks; those factors discussed in under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Registration Statement (when publicly filed), as may be amended from time to time, and other documents filed, or to be filed, with the SEC by ISRL or Present Experience. If any of these risks materialize or Pomvom’s or ISRL’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither Pomvom nor ISRL presently know or that Pomvom and ISRL currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Pomvom’s and ISRL’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this communication. Pomvom and ISRL anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause Pomvom’s and ISRL’s assessments to change. However, while Pomvom and ISRL may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Pomvom and ISRL specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Pomvom and ISRL’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this communication. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. An investment in Pomvom, Present Experience, or ISRL is not an investment in any of Pomvom’s, Present Experience’s, or ISRL’s respective founders’ or sponsors’ past investments or companies or any funds affiliated with any of the foregoing. The historical results of these investments are not indicative of future performance of Pomvom, Present Experience, or ISRL, which may differ materially from the performance of past investments, companies or affiliated funds.
