Organization and Business Operations | Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations Sizzle Acquisition Corp. (the “Company” or “Sizzle”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 12, 2020. The Company is a blank check company formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from October 12, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2022 related to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“IPO”), which is described below, and since the offering identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition targets for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company’s Sponsor is VO Sponsor, LLC. The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on November 3, 2021 (the “Effective Date”). On November 8, 2021, the Company consummated its IPO of 15,500,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit (which included a partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option), which is discussed in Note 3 and the sale of an aggregate of 770,000 shares at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share in a private placement to the Sponsor and Cantor that closed simultaneously with the IPO. On November 8, 2021, the underwriter exercised 2,000,000 of the full 2,025,000 over-allotment option available to them and forfeited the remainder. Transaction costs amounted to $11,381,247 consisting of $2,700,000 of underwriting commissions, $8,150,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $531,247 of other cash offering costs. The Company’s leadership has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Shares, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete a Business Combination having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into an initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Upon the closing of the IPO, management has agreed that an amount equal to at least $10.20 per Unit sold in the IPO, including the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Shares, will be held in a Trust Account, located in the United States and invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account, as described below. Following the closing of the IPO on November 8, 2021, $158,100,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds sold in the IPO, including the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Shares, was deposited in the Trust Account. The Company will provide the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of the shares of common stock of the Company that were issued in the Company’s initial public offering (the “Public Shares”) upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The public stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.20 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants. The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO in accordance with the ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company seeks stockholder approval and a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC and file tender offer documents with the SEC containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5), EarlyBirdCapital (“EBC”) Shares (as defined in Note 7) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the IPO (a) in favor of approving a Business Combination and (b) not to redeem any shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a Business Combination or sell any shares to the Company in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. On February 1, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders (“Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved an extension of the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination from February 8, 2023 to August 8, 2023, or such earlier date as determined by Sizzle’s board of directors (“the “Extension”). In connection with the Special Meeting, stockholders holding 11,076,703 Public Shares exercised their right to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the trust account. As a result, approximately $114.3 million (approximately $10.32 per Public Share) will be removed from the trust account to pay such holders and approximately $45.6 million will remain in the trust account. Following redemptions, the Company will have 4,423,297 Public Shares outstanding. The Company will deposit an aggregate amount of $200,000 (the “Extension Payment”) in its Trust Account for its public stockholders by February 9, 2023, which will enable the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate the proposed Business Combination to August 8, 2023, and will deposit into the Trust Account the same amount of Extension Payment each additional month that is needed for Sizzle to consummate the proposed Business Combination until August 8, 2023 (unless Sizzle’s board of directors decides to stop extending the time period earlier than such date). The Company has until August 8, 2023 to complete an initial Business Combination. If it has not completed an initial Business Combination by such date, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including any interest not previously released to it but net of taxes payable, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to the obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The Sponsor has agreed to waive its liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor acquires Public Shares in or after the IPO, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the IPO price per Unit ($10.00). In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below $10.20 per Public Share, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a valid and enforceable agreement with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind they may have in or to any monies held in the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the insiders will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the insiders will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. Merger Agreement On October 24, 2022, the Company, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with European Lithium Limited, an Australian Public Company limited by shares (“EUR”), European Lithium AT (Investments) Limited, a BVI business company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of EUR (the “European Lithium”), Critical Metals Corp., a BVI business company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“Pubco”) and Project Wolf Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco, pursuant to which, upon closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), Pubco will acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital shares and equity interests of the European Lithium from EUR in exchange for ordinary shares of Pubco, European Lithium shall become a wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco and EUR shall become a shareholder of Pubco (the “Share Exchange”); and immediately thereafter Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving entity and wholly owned subsidiary of Pubco. Further, (a) the Company’s issued and outstanding shares common stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be cancelled in exchange for the right of the holder thereof to receive one ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of Pubco (“Ordinary Share”), (b) all of the outstanding Public Warrants of the Company, entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share will be converted into the right to receive a warrant to purchase one Ordinary Share at the same exercise price, being an exercise price of $11.50 per share, and (c) EUR will receive the number of Ordinary Shares in the Share Exchange that shall have an aggregate value equal to the Closing Share Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement) consisting of $750,000,000 divided by the redemption amount per share of common stock payable to the Company’s public stockholders that elect to redeem common stock in connection with the Closing, and, subject to applicable terms and conditions, earnout consideration of up to an additional 10% of such Closing Share Consideration, in each case subject to adjustment as set forth in the Merger Agreement, and all upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $823,945 of cash in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit of $436,721 (excluding franchise and income taxes payable). As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $1,046,646 of cash in its operating bank account and a working capital of $1,079,831 (excluding franchise tax payable). The Company’s liquidity needs up to December 31, 2022 have been satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor of $25,000 (see Note 5) for the Founder Shares and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of $150,000 (see Note 5), which was fully drawn down as of December 31, 2022. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans, as defined below (see Note 5). As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loans. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. If the Company’s estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence, and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds to operate its business prior to an initial business combination. The Company has until August 8, 2023, to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination within the Combination Period. If a Business Combination is not consummated within the Combination Period, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. As a result of the above, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that the liquidity condition, in addition to possibility that Company would not be able to close a business combination through August 8, 2023, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through that date. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Risks and Uncertainties Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia-Ukraine war and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus and the war could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax. Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holder, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform to current period’s presentation. As of December 31, 2021, and for the year ended December 31, 2021 the amount of Franchise tax expense and payable of $85,711 was included in the total amount of Accrued offering costs and Formation and operating cost . Such reclassifications have no effect on net loss as previously reported. |
