At the special meeting of the stockholders of Tishman Speyer Innovation Corp. II (the “Company”) held on November 29, 2022 (the “Special Meeting”), stockholders of the Company (the “Stockholders”) approved (i) the amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Charter”) to change the date by which the Company must consummate a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination from February 17, 2023 (the “Original Termination Date”) to November 30, 2022 (the “Amended Termination Date”); (ii) the amendment to the Charter to eliminate from the Charter the limitation that the Company may not redeem shares of its Class A common stock (the “Class A Common Stock”) sold in the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation”), in order to allow the Company to redeem such shares irrespective of the Redemption Limitation; and (iii) the amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated February 11, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”) (the “Trust Agreement”), to change the date on which Continental must commence liquidation of the trust account established in connection with the IPO to the Amended Termination Date.
The Company filed the amendment to the Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on November 29, 2022. The foregoing descriptions of the amendment to the Charter and the amendment to the Trust Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to Exhibits 3.1 and 10.1, respectively, which are incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.07 | Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. |
At the Special Meeting, a total of 28,419,890 (75.79%) of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock (the “Common Stock”) held of record at the close of business on November 7, 2022, the record date for the Special Meeting, were represented by proxy, which constituted a quorum. The Stockholders voted on the following proposals (collectively, the “Proposals”) at the Special Meeting, which are described in more detail in the definitive proxy statement of the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 8, 2022 (as supplemented from time to time, the “Proxy Statement”).
Proposal No. 1 - to adopt an amendment to the Charter as set forth in paragraphs 4 and 6 of Annex A attached to the Proxy Statement to change the date by which the Company must consummate a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination from the Original Termination Date to the Amended Termination Date.

Proposal No. 2 - to adopt an amendment to the Charter as set forth in paragraphs 5, 7, 8 and 9 of Annex A attached to the Proxy Statement to eliminate from the Charter the limitation that the Company may not redeem shares of its Class A Common Stock sold in the IPO to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets (as defined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of less than $5,000,001 in order to allow the Company to redeem such shares irrespective of the Redemption Limitation.

As there were sufficient votes to approve the Proposals, the “Adjournment Proposal” described in the Proxy Statement was not presented to the Stockholders.
Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
Since the Proposals were approved, and because the Company will not be able to complete an initial business combination by the Amended Termination Date, the Company will be obligated to redeem all issued and outstanding Class A Common Stock issued in the IPO as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days after the Amended Termination Date (the “Mandatory Redemption”) and the Company’s warrants will expire worthless. The Company expects to complete the Mandatory Redemption on or around December 2, 2022, at a per-share redemption price of approximately $10.00.
The Company expects that the last day of trading of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) will be November 30, 2022, following which the Company expects that Nasdaq will file a Form 25 with the SEC to delist its securities on or about December 1, 2022. The Company thereafter expects to file a Form 15 with the SEC to terminate the registration of its securities under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
