Acropolis Infrastructure Acquisition Corp. (NYSE: ACRO) (the
“Company”), a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company,
today announced that it will liquidate and dissolve the Company in
accordance with the provisions of the Company’s amended and
restated certificate of incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate
of Incorporation”). Accordingly, the Company will redeem all
outstanding shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 (the
“public shares”), effective as of December 19, 2023.
As stated in the Certificate of Incorporation,
if the Company is unable to complete an initial business
combination by July 13, 2024, or such earlier date as determined by
the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) in its sole and
absolute discretion, the Company will: (i) cease all
operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as
promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days
thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem
100% of the public shares in consideration of a per-share price,
payable in cash, equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the
aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account including
interest not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes
(less up to $100,000 of such net interest to pay dissolution
expenses), by (B) the total number of then outstanding public
shares, which redemption will completely extinguish rights of the
holders of the public shares (including the right to receive
further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable
law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following
such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining
stockholders and the Board in accordance with applicable law,
dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s
obligations under the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, as amended from time to time, to provide for claims of
creditors and other requirements of applicable law.
The per share redemption price for the public
shares will be approximately $10.49, less amounts required to pay
the Company’s tax obligations (the “Redemption Amount”). The
balance of the trust account as of December 4, 2023 was
approximately $84,040,779.58, which includes approximately
$4,032,789.58 in interest income. In accordance with the terms of
the related trust agreement, the Company expects to retain up to
$100,000 of the interest income from the trust account to pay
dissolution expenses and amounts required to pay the Company’s tax
obligations. Prior to the withdrawal of amounts required to pay the
Company’s tax obligations, there is expected to be a total of
approximately $83,940,779.58 available for redemption of the
8,000,799 public shares outstanding.
The last day that the Company’s securities will
trade on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) will be December 18,
2023. As of December 19, 2023, the public shares will be deemed
cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the
Redemption Amount.
Beneficial owners of public shares held in
“street name” will not need to take any action in order to receive
the Redemption Amount.
There will be no redemption rights or
liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants,
which will expire worthless.
The Company’s sponsor has waived its redemption
rights with respect to the outstanding founder shares and the
shares underlying the private placement warrants. After December
19, 2023, the Company shall cease all operations except for those
required to wind up the Company’s business.
The Company expects that NYSE will file a Form
25 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) to delist its securities. The Company thereafter
expects to file a Form 15 with the Commission to terminate the
registration of its securities under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended.
