Item 5.03 Amendments to Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association.
On October 22, 2021, in connection with the Shareholder Meeting (defined as below), Alberton Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) filed with the Registrar of the British Virgin Islands to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On October 22, 2021, Alberton held its special meeting of the shareholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, the Company’s shareholders voted on two proposals, each of which is described in more details in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 8, 2021 (the “Proxy Statement”). At the beginning of the Special Meeting, there were 3,797,115 ordinary shares in person or by proxy, which represented 84.75% of the voting power of the ordinary shares entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, which constituted a quorum for the transaction of business. As a result, the proposal to adjourn the meeting was no longer applicable.
At the Special Meeting, the following proposal were voted on and approved:
● | To amend the Company’s memorandum and articles of association (as may amended from time to time, the “M&A”), to extend the date before which the Company must complete a business combination (the “Termination Date”) from October 26, 2021 (the “Current Termination Date”) to April 26, 2022 or such earlier date as determined by the Board (the “Extended Termination Date”), and provide that the date for cessation of operations of the Company if the Company has not completed a business combination would similarly be extended by amending regulation 47.15 in the Articles of Association. |
