Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

Extension Approval

 

As previously disclosed, on May 10, 2023, 10X Capital Venture Acquisition Corp. II, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“10X II”) held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, at which 10X II’s shareholders approved, by special resolution, the proposal to amend 10X II’s Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which 10X II must (1) consummate an initial business combination, (2) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up if it fails to complete such initial business combination, and (3) redeem all of the Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, included as part of the units sold in its initial public offering from May 13, 2023 to August 13, 2023 (the “Extended Date”) and to allow the board of directors of 10X II (the “Board”), without another shareholder vote, to elect to further extend the date to consummate an initial business combination after the Extended Date up to six times, by an additional month each time, upon two days’ advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, up to February 13, 2024.

 

On August 8, 2023, the Board approved the extension of the date by which 10X II is required to complete an initial business combination until September 13, 2023 (the “Optional Extension”). This Current Report on Form 8-K constitutes notice to shareholders of the Board’s approval of the Optional Extension.

 

Liquidation of Investment Held in the Trust Account Into Cash Held in an Interest-Bearing Demand Deposit Account

 

In order to mitigate the potential risks of being deemed to have been operating as an unregistered investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), the Company has determined to instruct Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the trust account of the Company (the “Trust Account”), to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations and money market funds held in the Trust Account on August 8, 2023 and to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash in an interest-bearing demand deposit account until the earlier of consummation of the Company’s initial business combination or liquidation. Interest on such demand deposit account is variable and therefore such rate of interest may decrease or increase significantly. As a result, following such liquidation, the Company may receive less interest on the funds held in the Trust Account, which would reduce the dollar amount public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of the Company.

 

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K (“Current Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Current Report are forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terms such as “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “assumes,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “seeks,” or other similar expressions. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this Current Report, including without limitation statements regarding interest rates and their the impact on the Company’s cash held in the Trust Account are forward looking statements.

 

These statements are based on the Company’s current expectations on the date of this Current Report and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, including those discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 17, 2023, and the Company’s other reports filed with the SEC, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this Current Report.

 

Nothing in this Current Report should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. All such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Current Report. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified and some of which are beyond the Company’s control, undue reliance should not be placed upon these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by applicable law. These forward looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report.
