Vision Sensing Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: VSACU,
VSAC, VSACW) (the “
Company” or
“
VSAC”), a special purpose acquisition company,
announced that the Sponsor, Vision Sensing LLC, did not deposit the
required extension fee into the Company’s trust account at
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, which was due on
October 3, 2024, in order to extend the date by which the Company
must consummate its initial business combination from October 3,
2024, to November 3, 2024. VSAC is no longer able to pursue a
business combination. Therefore, the Company will dissolve and
liquidate.
Delisting of the Company
On October 8, 2024, the Company notified The
Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”)
that the required extension fees were not deposited into the
Company’s trust account at Continental Stock Transfer & Trust
Company and that the Company seeks a voluntary delisting. The
Company expects that Nasdaq will file a Form 25 with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) to delist its securities, and that
the delisting will become effective ten days after Nasdaq files the
Form 25 with the Commission to complete the delisting. 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.
Dissolution and Liquidation of the
Company
The Company’s existing certificate of
incorporation dated as of August 13, 2021, as most recently amended
in a restated certificate of incorporation dated as of April 30,
2024 and as may be further amended (collectively, the
“Existing VSAC Charter”) requires the Company to
complete its initial business combination by November 3, 2024. The
Company is no longer able complete the initial business combination
by November 3, 2024; therefore, the Existing VSAC Charter requires
the Company to, and 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 Offering 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 Corporation 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 Offering Shares, which redemption will
completely extinguish rights of the Public Stockholders (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 remaining
stockholders and the Board in accordance with applicable law,
dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and
(iii) to the Corporation’s obligations under the DGCL to provide
for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable
law.
All terms above not defined herein shall have
the meaning under the Existing VSAC Charter.
As of October 18, 2024, the per-share redemption
price for the class A common stock of the Company was approximately
$11.92 (the “Redemption Amount”) which will be
further adjusted, as described below. In accordance with the terms
of the related trust agreement, the Company expects to retain
$100,000 of the interest and dividend income from the Company’s
trust account to pay dissolution expenses. The balance of the
Company’s trust account, including the reduction for the
dissolution expenses, as of October 18, 2024 was approximately
$13,515,848.07. The Company is calculating taxes due for 2023 and
2024 that will be removed from the trust account prior to any
Redemption Amount being paid to the holders of the Company’s public
shares upon presentation of their respective share or unit
certificates or other delivery of their shares or units to the
Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust
Company. The number of remaining public shares of the Company as of
October 18, 2024, 2024 was 1,133,691.
The Redemption Amount will be payable to the
holders of the Company’s public shares upon presentation of their
respective share or unit certificates or other delivery of their
shares or units to the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock
Transfer & Trust Company. Beneficial owners of the Company’s
public shares held in “street name,” however, 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.
After October 21, 2024, the Company shall cease
all operations except for those required to wind up its
business.
