Hawks Acquisition Corp (NYSE: HWKZ) (“Hawks” or the “Company”), a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company, today announced that the per-share redemption price for the Company’s public shares (as defined below) will be approximately $10.30 (the “Redemption Amount”).

Furthermore, the Company announced that the date of the redemption of the public shares (as described below) will be July 14, 2023.

As previously announced on June 27, 2023, the Company will redeem all of its outstanding shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Class A Common Stock”), other than shares of Class A Common Stock that have been converted from shares of Class B Common Stock (as defined below) (such shares to be redeemed, the “public shares”), because Hawks will not consummate an initial business combination within the time period required by its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”).

As stated in the Certificate of Incorporation, if the Company is unable to complete an initial business combination by December 13, 2023 (or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”)), 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, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account (net of permitted withdrawals and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders' rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject, in each case, to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. On June 27, 2023, the Board determined to set the date by which the Company has to complete its initial business combination to July 12, 2023.

The Company’s securities ceased trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) on July 12, 2023. As of July 14, 2023, the public shares will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right to receive the Redemption Amount.

The Redemption Amount will be payable to the holders of the public shares upon presentation of their respective stock 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 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.

The Company’s sponsor has waived its redemption rights with respect to the shares of Class A Common Stock converted from shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Common Stock”) and private placement warrants pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation. After July 14, 2023, the Company shall cease all operations except for those required to wind up the Company’s business.

The Company expects that the 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.
