Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On September 13, 2022, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger entered among Pacifico Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Caravelle Group Co., Ltd (“Caravelle”) and other parties on August 15, 2022, Caravelle has deposited into the Company’s trust account a principal amount of $575,000, representing approximately $0.10 per share of common stock, in order to extend the period of time the Company has to complete a business combination for an additional three (3) months period, from September 16, 2022 to December 16, 2022.
On September 15, 2022, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Extension Fee Note”), effective as of September 13, 2022, in an amount of $575,000 to Caravelle. The Extension Fee Note bears no interest and is repayable in full upon the consummation of the Company’s business combination. It is convertible at Caravelle’s election upon the consummation of the Company’s business combination. Upon such election, the Extension Fee Note will convert, at a price of $10.00 per unit, into units identical to the private placement units issued in connection with the Company’s initial public offering. Such units shall be proportionally allocated to all the shareholders of Caravelle based on their ownership percentages in Caravelle immediately before the closing of the Company’s business combination.
On September 15, 2022, the Company issued a convertible unsecured promissory note (a “Working Capital Note”) in the principal amount of $50,000 to Pacifico Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The Working Capital Note was issued to provide the Company with additional working capital, and will not be deposited into the Company’s trust account. The Company issued the Working Capital Note in consideration for a loan from the Sponsor to fund the Company’s working capital requirements. The Working Capital Note bears no interest and is repayable in full upon the consummation of the Company’s business combination. It is convertible at the Sponsor’s election (up to $600,000 of the total notes) upon the consummation of the Company’s business combination. Upon such election, the Working Capital Note will convert, at a price of $10.00 per unit, into units identical to the private placement units issued in connection with the Company’s initial public offering.
The Extension Fee Note is filed as Exhibit 10.1. The Working Capital Note is filed as Exhibit 10.2.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
The information set forth in Item 2.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. An aggregate of 62,500 private placement units of the Company would be issued if the entire principal balance of the Extension Fee Note and Working Capital Note is converted. The rights constituting a part of the units are exchangeable, subject to the terms and conditions of the rights, for shares of common stock as provided in the right agreement governing the rights. The Company has relied upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in connection with the issuance and sale of the Extension Fee Note and Working Capital Note, as they were issued to sophisticated investors without a view to distribution, and were not issued through any general solicitation or advertisement.
