Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 15, 2022, upon the stockholders’ approval of the Trust Amendment Proposal (as defined below) at the special meeting in lieu of 2022 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Meeting”) of Monument Circle Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), the Company entered into an amendment (the “Trust Amendment”) to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated January 13, 2021 (the “Trust Agreement”), by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (“Continental”), to extend the date by which the Company would be required to consummate a business combination from January 19, 2023 to July 19, 2023, or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) in its sole discretion.

 

A copy of the Trust Amendment is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On December 15, 2022, following the stockholders’ approval of the Charter Amendments (as defined below) at the Meeting, the Board resolved, in accordance with the Charter Amendments, that the Company wind up its operations and commence liquidation as soon as practicable before December 31, 2022. The Company has (i) notified the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) of the anticipated redemption (the “Redemption”) of 100% of the shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Class A Common Stock”), included as part of the units sold in the IPO, whether such shares were purchased in the IPO or in the secondary market following the IPO (including shares sold pursuant to the underwriters’ overallotment option, collectively, the “Public Shares”) in connection with the Company’s implementation of the Charter Amendments (as defined below) and the Trust Amendment and the Board’s election to commence liquidation and dissolution of the Company; and (ii) requested that Nasdaq (A) suspend trading of the Company’s shares of Class A Common Stock, warrants to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Warrants”) and units, each consisting of one Public Share and one-half of one Redeemable Warrant (the units, together with the Class A Common Stock and the Redeemable Warrants, the “Securities”) effective after the closing of trading on December 23, 2022, and (B) file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Form 25 Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration (“Form 25”) to delist and deregister the Securities under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As a result, the Securities will be suspended from trading on Nasdaq on December 23, 2022.

 

The Company expects that Nasdaq will file Form 25 with the SEC on or about December 23, 2022. Following that, the Company intends to file a Form 15 Certification and Notice of Termination of Registration with the SEC, requesting that the Company’s reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act be terminated with respect to the Securities.

The number of votes cast for or against, as well as the number of abstentions as to each proposal, are set forth below.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

In connection with the Company’s implementation of the Charter Amendments and the Board’s decision to liquidate and dissolve the Company, the Public Shares will be redeemed at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the remaining aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the Trust Account deposits (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares (which represents those Public Shares that were not redeemed in connection with the Meeting). The Redemption will completely extinguish rights of the holders of Public Shares (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any). There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Redeemable Warrants, which will expire worthless upon the liquidation of the Company.

 

As of the close of business on December 23, 2022, all Public Shares will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the Redemption amount. As of the date of this report, the final Redemption Amount and the per-share redemption price are being calculated by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the transfer agent of the Company. The Company expects to file a Current Report on Form 8-K to announce such information as soon as possible.

 

In connection with the foregoing matters described in this Current Report on Form 8-K, on December 20, 2022, the Company issued a press release, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.

“Immediately after the Offering, a portion of the net offering proceeds received by the Corporation in the Offering (including the proceeds of any exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option) and certain other amounts specified in the Corporation’s registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (the “Registration Statement”), shall be deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), established for the benefit of the Public Stockholders (as defined below) pursuant to a trust agreement described in the Registration Statement. Except for the amounts withdrawn as described in the Registration Statement (“Permitted Withdrawals”), none of the funds held in the Trust Account (including the interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account) will be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of 100% of the Offering Shares (as defined below) if the Corporation is unable to complete its initial Business Combination by July 19, 2023 (or such earlier date as determined by the Board, in its sole discretion, and included in a public announcement) (or, if the Office of the Delaware Division of Corporations shall not be open for business (including filing of corporate documents) on such date the next date upon which the Office of the Delaware Division of Corporations shall be open) (the “Deadline”) and (iii) the redemption of shares in connection with a vote seeking to amend any provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate as described in Section 9.7. Holders of shares of the Common Stock included as part of the units sold in the Offering (the “Offering Shares”) (whether such Offering Shares were purchased in the Offering or in the secondary market following the Offering and whether or not such holders are affiliates or officers or directors of the Corporation, or affiliates of any of the foregoing) are referred to herein as “Public Stockholders.””

 

2.The text of Section 9.2(d) of Article IX of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

 

“In the event that the Corporation has not consummated an initial Business Combination by the Deadline, the Corporation shall (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the Offering Shares in consideration of a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (net of amounts withdrawn as Permitted Withdrawals and less up to $100,000 of such net interest to pay dissolution expenses), by (B) the total number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish rights of the Public Stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the Board in accordance with applicable law, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Corporation’s obligations under the DGCL to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.”

 

3.The text of Section 9.7 of Article IX of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

Monument Circle Acquisition Corp. Amends Charter and Announces Decision to Liquidate

 

Indianapolis, IN, December 20, 2022 – On December 14, 2022, the stockholders of Monument Circle Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) approved (i) an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Charter”) to extend the date by which the Company would be required to consummate a business combination from January 19, 2023 to July 19, 2023 (the “Extension Amendment”), (ii) an amendment to the Charter to permit the Company’s Board, in its sole discretion, to elect to wind up the Company’s operations on an earlier date (the “Liquidation Amendment” and, together with the Extension Amendment, the “Charter Amendments”), (iii) an amendment to the Company’s investment management trust agreement, dated as of January 13, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to extend the date by which the Company would be required to consummate a business combination from January 19, 2023 to July 19, 2023, or such earlier date as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, and (iv) a proposal to ratify the selection by the audit committee of the Board of WithumSmith+Brown, PC to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2022. The Company filed the Extension Amendment and the Liquidation Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and executed the Trust Agreement as of December 15, 2022.

 

In connection with the stockholders’ meeting, stockholders holding 23,585,009 public shares exercised their right to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As of the date of this release, the final Redemption Amount and the per-share redemption price are being calculated by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the transfer agent of the Company. The Company expects to file a Current Report on Form 8-K to announce such information as soon as possible.

 

Following the stockholders’ meeting, the Company’s board of directors has determined to liquidate and dissolve the Company as soon as practicable before December 31, 2022. In connection therewith, the Company has (i) notified the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) of its anticipated redemption (the “Redemption”) of 100% of its shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), included as part of the units sold in the IPO, whether such shares were purchased in the IPO or in the secondary market following the IPO (including shares sold pursuant to the underwriters’ overallotment option, collectively, the “Public Shares”) and (ii) requested that Nasdaq suspend trading of the Company’s shares of Class A Common Stock, warrants to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Warrants”) and units, each consisting of one Public Share and one-third of one Redeemable Warrant (the units, together with the Class A Common Stock and the Redeemable Warrants, the “Securities”) effective after the closing of trading on December 23, 2022. As a result, the Securities will be suspended from trading on Nasdaq on December 23, 2022.

 

The Public Shares will be redeemed at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the remaining aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the Trust Account deposits (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares (which represents those Public Shares that were not redeemed in connection with the Meeting). The Redemption will completely extinguish rights of the holders of public shares (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any). As of the date of this release, the final Redemption Amount and the per-share redemption price are being calculated by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the transfer agent of the Company. The Company expects to file a Current Report on Form 8-K to announce such information as soon as possible.

  

There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Redeemable Warrants, which will expire worthless upon the liquidation of the Company.  

 

If stockholders hold Units, such stockholders do not need to separate the Units into their component parts in order to have their public shares of Class A Common Stock redeemed.
