Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On February 7, 2023, stockholders of Goal Acquisitions Corp. (the “Company”) approved an amendment (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated February 10, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”) (the “Trust Agreement”), to change the date on which Continental must commence liquidation of the amount on deposit in the trust account (the “Trust Account”) established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering from February 16, 2023 to March 18, 2023, subject to extension by the board of directors for up to five additional thirty-day periods (the latest of which such date is referred to as the “New Termination Date”).

 

The foregoing description of the Trust Agreement Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to 10.1 which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

 

On February 7, 2023, the Company’s stockholders also approved an amendment (the “Charter Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Charter”) to (i) extend the initial period of time by which the Company has to consummate an initial business combination to the New Termination Date and (ii) make other administrative and technical changes in the Charter in connection with the New Termination Date, in each case, pursuant to an amendment in the form set forth in Annex A of the proxy statement. The Company filed the Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 8, 2023.

 

On February 13, 2023, the Company issued a press release, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference, announcing (i) the approval and filing of the Charter Amendment and (ii) the New Termination Date.

 

The foregoing description of the Charter Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 3.1 which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

At the Special Meeting, the following proposals were considered and acted upon by the stockholders of the Company: (a) a proposal to approve the Charter Amendment (the “Charter Amendment Proposal”); (b) a proposal to approve the Trust Agreement Amendment (the “Trust Amendment Proposal” and together with the Charter Amendment Proposal, the “Amendment Proposals”); and (c) a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting from time to time to solicit additional proxies in favor of the Amendment Proposals or if otherwise determined by the chairperson of the Special Meeting to be necessary or appropriate (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

 

On January 6, 2023, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 33,161,250 shares of common stock of the Company entitled to be voted at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, 24,821,900 shares of common stock of the Company, or 74.85% of the shares entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, were represented in person or by proxy. 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 stockholders’ approval and implementation of the Charter Amendment Proposal, the holders of 16,328,643 Public Shares exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.13 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $165,489,172. Following such redemptions, 9,546,357 Public Shares remain outstanding and the Company expects to have approximately $96,751,378 remaining in the Trust Account.

 

Atalaya Capital Management LP (“Atalaya”) has informed the Company that it is pleased with the results of the Charter Amendment and voted in favor of the Charter Amendment Proposal, is optimistic about the prospects of the Company’s team, and believes the additional time will facilitate the Company closing on an accretive business combination. Atalaya will vote its shares in favor of the transaction with the proposed target. In connection with the Charter Amendment, Atalaya reduced its shareholding to 9.9% of the outstanding shares (a common industry practice). Atalaya expects to work with the Company’s management team in connection with the Private Investment in Public Equity process and other capital needs. In addition, given the positive results from the extension vote, the Company and Atalaya have agreed that Atalaya has the flexibility to redeem its position after its affirmative vote on the business combination but before the closing of such transaction.
