Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On April 19, 2023, Jupiter Wellness Acquisition Corporation (“JWAC”) issued a press release announcing that its special meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”), which was originally scheduled for April 20, 2023, has been postponed to 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time, on Tuesday, May 2, 2023. At the Meeting, shareholders of JWAC will be asked to vote on proposals to approve, among other things, its initial business combination with Chijet Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Chijet”), each of the referenced holders of Chijet’s outstanding shares (collectively, the “Sellers”), Chijet Motor Company, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Chijet (“Pubco”), and Chijet Motor (USA) Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Merger Sub”), which JWAC previously announced on its Current Report on Form 8-K dated October 31, 2022, as amended (the “Business Combination”). There is no change to the location, the record date, the purpose or any of the proposals to be acted upon at the Meeting.

 

As a result of this change, the Meeting will now be held at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, May 2, 2023, via the live webcast at https://web.lumiagm.com/285719486.

 

Also as a result of this change, JWAC has extended the deadline for holders of JWAC’s common stock to submit their publicly held shares for redemption in connection with the Business Combination to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, April 28, 2023.

 

Shareholders who wish to withdraw their previously submitted redemption requests may do so prior to the Meeting by requesting the Company’s transfer agent American Stock Transfer & Trust Company to return such shares.

 

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

DISCLAIMER

 

This report hereto shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption therefrom.

 

NO ASSURANCES

 

There can be no assurance that the proposed Transactions will be completed, nor can there be any assurance, if the Transactions are completed, that the potential benefits of combining the companies will be realized.

PARTICIPANTS IN THE SOLICITATION

 

JWAC, Chijet and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the shareholders of JWAC in connection with the Transactions.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

The information in this report contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to the proposed business combination. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result” and similar expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this press release, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the business combination may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of JWAC’s securities; (ii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the business combination, including the approval of the business combination agreement by the stockholders of JWAC; (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the business combination agreement; (iv) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against any of the parties to the business combination agreement following the announcement of the entry into the business combination agreement and proposed business combination; (v) the ability of the parties to recognize the benefits of the business combination agreement and the business combination; (vi) the lack of useful financial information for an accurate estimate of future capital expenditures and future revenue; (vii) statements regarding Chijet’s industry and market size; (viii) financial condition and performance of Chijet and Pubco, including the anticipated benefits, the implied enterprise value, the expected financial impacts of the business combination, potential level of redemptions of JWAC’s public shareholders, the financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, the products, the expected future performance and market opportunities of Chijet and Pubco; and (ix) those factors discussed in JWAC’s and Pubco’s filings with the SEC and that will be contained in the registration statement on Form F-4 and the related proxy statement relating to the business combination. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that will be described in the “Risk Factors” section of the registration statement on Form F-4 and related proxy statement and other documents to be filed by JWAC or Pubco from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and while Chijet, JWAC and Pubco may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, they assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, subject to applicable law. None of Chijet, JWAC or Pubco gives any assurance that Chijet, JWAC or Pubco will achieve its expectations.
