Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 18, 2022, Acri Capital Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”), Acri Capital Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), officers and directors of the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to a certain letter agreement among the parties dated June 9, 2022 (the “Original Agreement”), in order to correctly reflect the transfer restriction on founder shares as set forth in the final prospectus of the Company’s initial public offering, filed with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission on June 10, 2022 (File No. 333-263477, the “Prospectus”). Pursuant to the Prospectus, the founders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the founder shares until the earlier of (a) six months after the date of the consummation of the initial business combination of the Company, (b) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction after the initial business combination that results in all of its public stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property, or (c) the date on which the last reported sale price of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after our initial business combination, or earlier, in any case, if, subsequent to the initial business combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of its stockholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property. The Amendment corrected the inconsistency in the Original Agreement with regards to the transfer restriction on the founder shares.
Except the modification stated above to correctly reflecting the transfer restriction on the founder shares as stated in the Prospectus, the Original Agreement shall remain the same, binding and effective. A copy of the amendment is attached as an exhibit to this Current Report as Exhibit 10.1.
