Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 11, 2019 by Greenland Acquisition Corporation, a business company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (the “Company”), on September 8, 2019, the Company entered into subscription agreements (“Subscription Agreements”) with certain investors (the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the PIPE Investors an aggregate of $6,000,000 of ordinary shares of the Company, at a price of $10.25 per share, in a private placement (the “PIPE Financing”) simultaneously with or immediately prior to the closing of the Company’s initial business combination, and the PIPE Investors will have the right to purchase ordinary shares of the Company in one or more open market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions with third parties (any shares so purchased, “Backstop Shares”), which, if held and not redeemed in accordance with the requirements of the Subscription Agreements, will reduce the number of ordinary shares required to be purchased by such PIPE Investors in the PIPE Financing. Two Subscription Agreements were entered into with the PIPE Investors, one of which provided for $1,000,000 of the PIPE Financing, and the other for $5,000,000 of the PIPE Financing (the “$5M Agreement”).
Effective October 17, 2019, the Company and the subscriber which entered into the $5M Agreement mutually agreed to terminate the $5M Agreement pursuant to a termination agreement (the “Termination Agreement”). The Company has not issued, and does not expect to issue, any ordinary shares pursuant to the Subscription Agreements.
The foregoing description of the Termination Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Termination Agreement, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
