ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Liberty Media Acquisition Corporation (“LMAC” or “the Company”) will be holding a virtual Special Meeting of Stockholders on Monday, November 14, 2022 at 11:30 a.m. M.T. The record date for the meeting is 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 3, 2022. At this special meeting, holders will be asked to vote on proposals related to an amendment to LMAC’s certificate of incorporation which would, if implemented, allow LMAC to unwind and redeem all of its outstanding public shares prior to December 30, 2022, in advance of the contractual termination date of January 26, 2023.
Stockholders of record as of the record date will be able to listen and vote and submit questions pertaining to the proposals by logging in at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LMACA2022SM. Stockholders will need the 16-digit control number that is printed in the box marked by the arrow on the stockholder’s proxy card for the meeting to enter the virtual special meeting website. A technical support number will become available at the virtual meeting link 10 minutes prior to the scheduled meeting time.
In addition, the meeting will be broadcast live via the Internet. All interested persons should visit the LMAC website at www.lmacthespac.com to register for the webcast. An archive of the webcast will also be available on this website after appropriate filings have been made with the SEC.
For more information, please see the definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on October 11, 2022.
Pursuant to LMAC’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”), a public stockholder may request that LMAC redeem all or a portion of such stockholder’s public shares for cash if the amendment proposal is approved and the Charter is amended. Specific procedures regarding redemptions can be found in the definitive proxy statement. Holders of LMAC units (Nasdaq: LMACU) must elect to separate the underlying public shares of Series A common stock (Nasdaq: LMACA) and public warrants (Nasdaq: LMACW) prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the warrants, which will expire worthless at the amended termination date if the amendment proposal is approved and the Charter is amended. Stockholders are encouraged to contact their brokerage firm or bank or LMAC’s transfer agent for additional information regarding redemption procedures.
