Media Statement from Patrick Orlando, CEO of Benessere Capital Acquisition Corp.
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / January 6, 2022 / Editors-Reporters please note:
Patrick Orlando, CEO of Benessere Capital Acquisition Corp., has issued the following statement in response to media interest in the January 7, 2022, special shareholders' meeting of Benessere Capital Acquisition Corp. and the stockholder vote on the company's proposal to amend its charter (the "Extension Amendment") to extend the date by which the Company has to complete a business combination from January 7, 2022 to July 7, 2022 (the "Extension").
"Our vote to approve the Extension Amendment is a common part of the SPAC process. Retail investors play a vital role in this process, and their voting role may be new to many of them. As has happened with other SPACs that have garnered a large population of retail investors, part of our role is generating awareness that our retail investors' votes are crucial to the SPAC process. In this case, we must have investors vote on the extension that will give us additional time to finalize our business combination with eCombustible. Failing to vote could result in the need to commence the liquidation process and stockholders will be unable to capitalize on the potential opportunity presented by the proposed business combination. We are requesting stockholders of record at the close of business on December 8, 2021, to vote before 10:00am on January 7, 2022. Every stockholder's vote is important, regardless of the number of shares held, to help us continue our momentum to build shareholder value for this company. Not voting is NOT a no vote. Shareholders must vote either ‘Yes' or "No" for their vote to count."
The simplest and quickest way for stockholders to cast their votes is via telephone between 9:00 AM and 9:00 PM, Eastern Time, by calling (877) 787-9239. They will be asked to confirm their name and mailing address. Stockholders may also vote online at www.cstproxyvote.com, or by mail, simply by following the instructions on their provided proxy card.
A virtual special meeting of the Company's stockholders ("Special Meeting") to approve the Extension Amendment has been adjourned to January 7, 2022 at 10:00 AM, Eastern Time and can be accessed by visiting https://www.cstproxy.com/benespac/2022. Votes will be accepted up to and during the Special Meeting.
