As of the Closing, each note issued by the Target Company that is convertible into Target Company Ordinary Shares or Target Company Preference Shares (the “Target Company Convertible Notes”) that is then outstanding and not converted into Target Company Ordinary Shares, shall be cancelled and extinguished and in exchange therefor, converted into the right to receive with respect to such Target Company Convertible Note, Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs, rounded down to the nearest whole Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares) equal to the product of (i) the number of Target Company Ordinary Shares that such Target Company Convertible Notes were convertible into immediately prior to the Closing based on the principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest outstanding on such Target Company Convertible Note multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio.
Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, immediately prior to the Closing, the Current Holdco Articles will be further amended and restated (the “A&R Holdco Articles”) to, among other things, (a) establish a dual-class Holdco Ordinary Shares structure consisting of Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares and Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares, and (b) provide that each Holdco Class A Ordinary Share will be entitled to one (1) vote per share and each Holdco Class V Ordinary Share will be entitled to ten (10) votes per share (the “High Vote”). In connection with the Transactions, the VIH Ordinary Shares received as consideration by the Founders will be Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares, and will entitle the Founders to the High Vote until such time as such Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares are exchanged pursuant to the terms of the A&R Holdco Articles for an equal number of Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (i) at the option of the holder, (ii) upon a transfer to an unaffiliated third party, (iii) upon the conversion of any Class V Ordinary Share by Holdco in any manner available under applicable law, including redeeming or repurchasing the relevant Class V Shares and applying the proceeds thereof towards payment for the new Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares, (iv) upon a Founder’s death or incapacity or (v) the date that the number of shares of Holdco, including any shares of Holdco underlying any securities (including restricted stock units, options, or other convertible instruments) convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable into shares of Holdco, held by a Founder and certain permitted transferees is less than 50% of the number of shares of Class V Ordinary Shares held by such Founder and such permitted transferees at the Closing (whichever is earlier with respect to such Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares). The Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares will provide the Founders with approximately 70.5% of the voting power of the Holdco Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately following the Closing, assuming no redemptions by the Company’s shareholders.
The parties to the Business Combination Agreement have made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Business Combination Agreement, including, among others, covenants with respect to the conduct of the Target Company, its subsidiaries, Holdco Merger Sub, and the Company prior to the Closing. The Closing is subject to certain customary conditions.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations (other than searching for a Business Combination after our Initial Public Offering) nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities through September 30, 2021 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and, after the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate
non-operating
income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with completing a Business Combination.
For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we had net loss of $1,654,071, which consists of the change in fair value of warrant liability of $298,788 and formation and operating costs of $1,358,575, offset by interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $3,292.
For the period from January 13, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $2,634,651 which consists of transaction costs incurred in connection with warrant liability of $609,973 and formation and operating costs of $3,358,552, offset by change in fair value of warrant liability of $1,317,580 and interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $16,294.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On March 9, 2021 the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 25,578,466 units (the “Units”) which includes the partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,078,466 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $255,784,660. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 5,127,129 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to VPC Impact Acquisition Holdings Sponsor II, LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $7,690,693.
Transaction costs amounted to $14,564,011, consisting of $5,115,693 of underwriting fees, $8,952,463 of deferred underwriting fees and $495,855 of other offering costs.
For the period from January 13, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2021, cash used in operating activities was $1,525,679. Net loss of $2,634,651 was affected by interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $16,294, changes in fair value of warrant liability of $1,317,580, transaction costs incurred in connection with warrant liability of $609,973, and formation cost paid by Sponsor in exchange for issuance of founder shares of $5,000. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $1,827,873 of cash for operating activities.
As of September 30, 2021, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $255,800,954 consisting of U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of 185 days or less. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
