Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

As previously disclosed, on January 17, 2023, Athena Consumer Acquisition Corp. (“Athena”) issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Working Capital Note”) to the sponsor of Athena, Athena Consumer Acquisition Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), providing for borrowings from time to time by Athena for working capital purposes up to an aggregate principal amount of $400,000.00.

 

On May 19, 2023, Athena and the Sponsor entered into an amendment and restatement to the Working Capital Note (the “A&R Note”) in order to increase the aggregate principal amount of borrowings by Athena to an aggregate principal amount of up to $600,000.00. The other terms of the Working Capital Note remain unchanged. Accordingly, following the closing of Athena’s initial business combination, the Sponsor may elect to convert all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Note, up to $600,000.00, into units of the post-business combination entity at $10.00 per unit, with each unit being identical to the private placement units sold to the Sponsor in connection with Athena’s initial public offering.

 

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the A&R Note, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events

 

On May 22, 2023, Athena issued a press release announcing that its board of directors (the “Board”) has elected to extend the date by which Athena has to consummate a business combination (the “Deadline Date”) from May 22, 2023 for an additional month to June 22, 2023, the fifth of six potential one-month extensions of the Deadline Date available to Athena.

 

Athena’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) provides Athena the right to extend the Deadline Date six times for an additional one month each time (each, an “Extension”), from January 22, 2023, the initial Deadline Date, to up to July 22, 2023. As previously disclosed, (1) in January 2023, the Board had implemented a first Extension and had extended the initial Deadline Date to February 22, 2023, (2) in February 2023, the Board had implemented a second Extension and had further extended the Deadline Date to March 22, 2023, (3) in March 2023, the Board had implemented a third Extension and had further extended the Deadline Date to April 22, 2023, and (4) in April 2023, the Board had implemented a fourth Extension and had further extended the Deadline Date to May 22, 2023.

 

On May 19, 2023, pursuant to the Charter, the Board determined to implement a fifth Extension to allow additional time for Athena to complete its initial business combination. In connection with the fifth Extension and pursuant to an unsecured promissory note Athena and the Sponsor entered into on January 17, 2023, the Board delivered to the Sponsor a written request to draw down $112,691.48 for the fifth month of the Extension. On May 22, 2023, the Sponsor deposited $112,691.48 into Athena’s trust account in connection with the fifth Extension.

 

A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
