Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On August 21, 2023, SDCL EDGE Acquisition Corporation (“SEDA” or the “Company”) issued a press release regarding the matters discussed in Item 8.01, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

 

The information in this Item 7.01 and in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto is furnished pursuant to the rules and regulation of the SEC and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On August 21, 2023, SEDA announced it had entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) with Magnet Joint Venture GmbH (“JV GmbH”), KME SE (“KME”) and The Paragon Fund III GmbH & Co. geschlossene Investment KG (“Paragon”), for a proposed business combination (the “Business Combination”) relating to the special product business of Cunova GmbH, a wholly-owned subsidiary of JV GmbH (“Cunova”) and certain assets of KME comprising the KME Specialty Aerospace Business (“KME Aerospace” and, together with Cunova, the “Target”).

 

The completion of the Business Combination is subject to, among other things, the completion of due diligence, the negotiation of definitive agreements for the Business Combination (the “Definitive Agreements”), satisfaction of the conditions negotiated therein, approval of the transaction by the board and shareholders of both the Company and Target, as well as regulatory approvals and other customary conditions. There can be no assurance that Definitive Agreements will be entered into or that the Business Combination will be consummated on the terms or timeframe currently contemplated, or at all.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

 

If a legally binding definitive agreement with respect to the Business Combination is executed, SEDA intends to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form F-4, which will include a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus (a “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”). A definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus will be mailed to SEDA’s shareholders as of a record date to be established for voting on the proposed transaction. Shareholders will also be able to obtain copies of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, without charge, at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to: SDCL EDGE Acquisition Corporation, 60 East 42nd Street, Suite 1100, New York, NY.

 

This communication may be deemed to be offering or solicitation material in respect of the proposed transaction, which will be submitted to SEDA’s shareholders for their consideration. SEDA urges investors, shareholders and other interested persons to carefully read, when available, the preliminary and definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus as well as other documents filed with the SEC (including any amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, as applicable), in each case, before making any investment or voting decision with respect to the proposed transaction, because these documents will contain important information about SEDA, the Target and the proposed transaction.

 

No Offer or Solicitation

 

This release shall not constitute a solicitation of a proxy, consent, or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the proposed transaction. This release shall also not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any states or jurisdictions in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption therefrom.

 

Information Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

 

This report includes “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 fact included in this report are forward-looking statements. When used in this report, words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management team, identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the Company’s management. Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks and uncertainties that include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to enter into the Definitive Agreements within the time provided in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association; the performance of the Target’s business; the risk that the approval of the Company’s shareholders for the Business Combination is not obtained; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, including as a result of a delay in consummating the Business Combination; the amount of redemption requests made by the Company’s shareholders and the amount of funds remaining in the Company’s trust account after satisfaction of such requests; the Company’s, Paragon’s, KME’s and Target’s ability to satisfy the conditions to closing the Business Combination; and those other factors set forth in the Company’s filings with the SEC. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are qualified in their entirety by this paragraph. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, including those set forth in the Risk Factors section of the Company’s filings with the SEC. Copies of such filings are available on the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov. The Company undertakes no obligation to update these statements for revisions or changes after the date of this release, except as required by law.
