Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.

 

As previously disclosed, on June 21, 2022, Tuscan Holdings Corp. II (“Tuscan”) held a special meeting of stockholders (“Meeting”). At the Meeting, Tuscan’s stockholders voted to approve an amendment to Tuscan’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which Tuscan has to consummate a business combination from June 30, 2022 to December 31, 2022 (the “Extension”).  

 

Tuscan Holdings Acquisition II LLC, Tuscan’s sponsor and an affiliate of Stephen A. Vogel, Tuscan’s Chief Executive Officer (“sponsor”), had previously agreed that if the Extension Amendment Proposal was approved, it or its affiliates would lend to Tuscan $0.10 per share for first three months of the Extension and then $0.033 per share for each additional month of the Extension needed to consummate an initial business combination through the Extended Date for each public share that is not converted in connection with the stockholder vote to approve the Extension (such loans being referred to herein as the “Contributions”). Accordingly, on June 28, 2022, the sponsor lent an aggregate of $261,810.10 to Tuscan for the first three months of the Extension and such funds were deposited into Tuscan’s trust account. A copy of the promissory note evidencing the loan is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.

 

Following the deposit of funds into Tuscan’s trust account, Tuscan filed an amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effectuate the Extension. A copy of the amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1.
