Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

The information set forth in Item 3.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K related to the Trust Amendment (as defined below) is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.03Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

 

At the special meeting of stockholders of VectoIQ Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”), held on December 9, 2022 (the “Special Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders approved (a) an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”), in the form attached to the proxy statement as Annex A, to (i) change the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination from January 11, 2023 (or April 11, 2023, if we have executed a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for an initial business combination on or before January 11, 2023) to the time and date immediately following the filing of such amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or the Accelerated Termination Date, (ii) remove the Redemption Limitation (as defined in the amended and restated certificate of incorporation) to allow the Company to redeem public shares (as defined below) notwithstanding the fact that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets of less than $5,000,001, and (iii) allow the Company to remove up to $100,000 of interest earned on the amount on deposit in the trust account (as defined below) prior to redeeming the public shares in connection with the special meeting in order to pay dissolution expenses and (b) an amendment to the Company’s Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated  January 6, 2021, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee, or the Trust Agreement, pursuant to an amendment in the form attached to the proxy statement as Annex B, to change the date on which the trustee must commence liquidation of the trust account established in connection with our initial public offering to the time and date immediately following the Accelerated Termination Date. The Company filed the Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and entered into the Trust Amendment on December 9, 2022.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Charter Amendment and the Trust Amendment attached as Exhibits 3.1 and 10.1, respectively, which are incorporated herein by reference.

 

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

 

At the Special Meeting, a total of 36,990,655 (84.02 %) of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock held of record at the close of business on November 4, 2022, the record date for the Special Meeting, were present either in person or by proxy, which constituted a quorum. As of the record date, there were 35,400,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, of which 28,750,000 were Class A common stock and 8,625,000 were Class B common stock. The Company’s stockholders voted on the following proposals at the Special Meeting, which are described in more detail in the definitive proxy statement of the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 10, 2022 (the “Proxy Statement”).

 

1.The stockholders approved the adoption of the Charter Amendment. The voting results were as follows:

 

FOR  AGAINST  ABSTAIN  BROKER NON-VOTES
36,693,715  289,915  7,025  N/A

 

2.The stockholders approved the Trust Amendment. The voting results were as follows:

 

FOR  AGAINST  ABSTAIN  BROKER NON-VOTES
36,724,745  171,405  94,505  N/A

 

 

 

 

As there were sufficient votes to approve the proposals, the “Adjournment Proposal” described in the Proxy Statement was not presented to stockholders.

 

Item 8.01Other Events.

 

In connection with the approval and implementation of the Charter Amendment, the holders of 33,583,054 public shares exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.06 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $337,962,418. Following such redemptions, 916,946 public shares remained outstanding. Since the Company was not able to complete an initial business combination by the Accelerated Termination Date, the Company was obligated to redeem the remaining public shares as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days after the Accelerated Termination Date (the “Mandatory Redemption”) and the Company’s warrants will expire worthless.
