Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, is furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act or otherwise subject to liabilities under that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of Aspirational under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings. This report will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information of the information contained in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1.

On July 12, 2021, Aspirational issued a press release announcing the results of the Extraordinary General Meeting and related matters. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 8.01 Other Events

In connection with the BCA Proposal, Aspirational’s shareholders elected to redeem an aggregate of 13,366,429 ASPL Class A ordinary shares (the “Redemptions”).

The Merger Agreement provides that the obligation of WUP to consummate the Business Combination is conditioned on, among other things, a requirement that the amount of cash available in the trust account of Aspirational following the Extraordinary General Meeting, after deducting the amount required to satisfy Aspirational’s obligations with respect to the Redemptions (but prior to payment of (x) any deferred underwriting commissions being held in the trust account, and (y) any transaction expenses of Aspirational or WUP) (the “Remaining Trust Amount”), is equal to or greater than $120,000,000 (the “Minimum Remaining Trust Amount”) (the “Minimum Trust Condition”). As a result of the Redemptions, the Remaining Trust Amount will be less than the Minimum Remaining Trust Amount by approximately $13,874,483, which shortfall equals approximately 2% of the funds that were expected by Wheels Up in connection with the Business Combination had the Remaining Trust Amount equaled the Minimum Remaining Trust Amount. WUP agreed to waive any failure to satisfy the Minimum Cash Condition as a result of the existence of such shortfall.
