Business Wire
Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. (the “Company”) (NYSE:
PSTH, PSTH.WS), a special purpose acquisition company, today
announced that it will redeem all of its outstanding shares of
Class A common stock (the “public shares”), effective as of July
26, 2022, because the Company will not consummate an initial
business combination within the time period required by its Second
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the
“Charter”).
As stated in the Company’s Form S-1 and in the Company’s
Charter, if the Company is unable to complete an initial business
combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public
offering on July 24, 2020 (subject to certain inapplicable
exceptions), the Company will:
- cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up,
- 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 (“Trust Account”) entered into in connection with the
Company’s initial public offering (less up to $100,000 of such net
interest to pay dissolution expenses), including interest, if any,
not previously released to the Company to pay taxes, by (B) the
total number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption
will completely extinguish rights of the public stockholders (and,
therefore, the public shares will have no right to receive further
liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law,
and
- as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption,
subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the board
of directors of the Company 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, to provide for
claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. The
Company has decided not to withhold any amounts to pay dissolution
expenses (which were permitted to be withheld in an amount up to
$100,000).
Net of taxes, the Company currently expects the per-share
redemption price for the public shares will be approximately $20.05
(as finally determined, the “Redemption Amount”). The Company
anticipates that the public shares will cease trading as of the
close of business on July 25, 2022. As of July 26, 2022 the public
shares will be deemed cancelled and will represent only the right
to receive the Redemption Amount. After July 26, 2022, the Company
shall cease all operations except for those required to wind up the
Company’s business.
The Redemption Amount will be paid on July 26, 2022 to the
beneficial owners of public shares held in street name without any
required action on their part. The Redemption Amount will be paid
to record holders of public shares held in certificated form after
presentation of their respective stock certificates or other
delivery of their shares to the Company’s transfer agent,
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, on or after July
26, 2022.
There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions
with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire
worthless.
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.
