Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On January 27, 2023, Talon 1 Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company, incorporated with limited liability (the “Company” or “Talon”) held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”) for the purpose of considering and voting on the Charter Amendment and the Trust Agreement Amendment (each as defined below) and, if presented, the proposal to adjourn the Extraordinary General Meeting to a later date.
At the Extraordinary General Meeting, the shareholders of the Company approved the amendment to the Company’s investment management trust agreement, dated as of November 3, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”). Pursuant to the Trust Agreement Amendment, the Company will deposit into the Company’s trust account (the “Trust Account”), for each one-month extension, $330,000.
The foregoing description of the Trust Agreement Amendment is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Trust Agreement Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 2.03 | Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. |
In connection with the Trust Agreement Amendment, AVi8 Acquisition LLC (the “Sponsor”) has agreed to make available to the Company an aggregate amount of up to US$4,000,000 pursuant to a promissory note in favor of the Sponsor (the “Note”).
The Sponsor may elect to convert up to $1,500,000 of the outstanding principal balance of the Note into warrants to purchase shares of Class A ordinary shares of the Company at a conversion price equal to $1.00 per warrant. The terms of such warrants issued in connection with such conversion shall be identical to the warrants issued to the Sponsor in connection with the Company’s initial public offering that closed on November 8, 2021. The Note does not bear interest. In the event that the Company does not consummate a business combination, the Note will be repaid only from amounts remaining outside of the Company’s trust account, if any.
The proceeds of the Note will be used by the Company to deposit additional funds to the trust account in connection with the extension of the amount of time the Company has available to complete a business combination and to fund the Company’s operations.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Note, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.03. | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year. |
At the Extraordinary General Meeting, the shareholders of the Company approved an amendment (the “Charter Amendment”) to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination up to nine (9) times for an additional one (1) month each time from February 8, 2023 to November 8, 2023 (which is 24 months from the closing of the Company’s initial public offering). Under Cayman Islands law, the Charter Amendment took effect upon approval by the shareholders. The Company plans to file the Charter Amendment with the Cayman Islands General Registry within 15 days of the Extraordinary General Meeting.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Charter Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
