Pensare Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:WRLS) (the “Company” or
“Pensare”) previously announced that it will hold a special meeting
in lieu of the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Special
Meeting”) on January 28, 2019 at 11:00 a.m., local time, at the
offices of Greenberg Traurig, LLP, located at the MetLife Building,
200 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10166 to vote on (i) a proposal
to amend (the “Charter Amendment”) the Company’s amended and
restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which
the Company has to consummate a business combination (the
“Extension”) for an additional three months, from February 1, 2019
to May 1, 2019 (the “Extended Date”); (ii) a proposal to re-elect
(the “Director Proposal”) four directors to the Company’s board of
directors, with each such director to serve until the second annual
meeting of stockholders following the Special Meeting or until his
successor is elected and qualified; and (iii) a proposal to ratify
the selection by the Company’s Audit Committee of Marcum LLP to
serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting
firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2019 (the “Auditor
Proposal”).
The Company today announced that its sponsor has
agreed to contribute to the Company as a loan $0.033 for each share
of Pensare’s common stock issued in its initial public offering
(each, a “Public Share”) that is not redeemed in connection with
the stockholder vote to approve the Extension, for each calendar
month, or portion thereof, that is needed by the Company to
complete a business combination (the “Contribution”). The amount of
the Contributions will not bear interest and will be repayable by
the Company to the Company’s sponsor upon consummation of the
Company’s initial business combination. The Extension will allow
the Company until the Extended Date to complete a business
combination.
As of January 15, 2019, the Company had
approximately $315.9 million in the trust account established in
connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the “Trust
Account”), or approximately $10.17 per Public Share.
The Contribution will increase the pro rata
portion of the funds available in the Trust Account in the event of
the consummation of a business combination or liquidation from
approximately $10.17 per Public Share to approximately $10.27 per
Public Share, assuming the Company takes the entire time through
May 1, 2019 to complete a business combination. If the Extension is
implemented, the Company’s sponsor will make the first Contribution
on or before February 10, 2019 and subsequent Contributions on or
before the tenth of each subsequent month. If the Company’s sponsor
determines not to continue extending for additional calendar
months, its obligation to make additional Contributions will
terminate and the Company will dissolve and liquidate in accordance
with its amended and restated certificate of incorporation.
