Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 3, 2023, Twelve Seas Investment Company II (the “Company”) issued a promissory note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of up to $900,000 to Twelve Seas Sponsor II LLC (the “Sponsor”), pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to loan to the Company up to such amount in connection with the extension of the date by which the Company must either (i) consummate a business combination, (ii) cease all operations, or (iii) redeem or repurchase 100% of the Company’s outstanding Public Shares (as defined below), from March 2, 2023 to December 2, 2023 (or such earlier date as determined by the board of directors of the Company) (the “Extension”).
The Company will deposit $100,000, or approximately $0.03 per share of the Company’s Class A common stock sold in the Company’s initial public offering (“Public Share”) that was not redeemed in connection with the Extension, into the Company’s trust account (the “Trust Account”) (i) in connection with the first drawdown under the Note and (ii) for each of the eight subsequent calendar months (commencing on April 3, 2023 and ending on the 2nd day of each subsequent month), or portion thereof, that is needed by the Company to complete an initial business combination (the “Business Combination”). Such amounts will be distributed either to: (i) all of the holders of Public Shares upon the Company’s liquidation or (ii) holders of Public Shares who elect to have their shares redeemed in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination.
The Note bears no interest and is repayable in full upon the earlier of (a) the date of the consummation of the Business Combination or (b) the date of the liquidation of the Company.
The issuance of the Note was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
