SCHEDULE 13D/A

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this “Schedule 13D/A”) is being filed on behalf of Newcourt SPAC Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Reporting Person” or “Sponsor”) for the purpose of updating the ownership percentage of the Reporting Person reported in the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Person with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 1, 2021 (the “Statement”) as a result of the redemption of approximately 23,497,468 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of Newcourt Acquisition Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Issuer”), as reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on January 10, 2023.

This Schedule 13D/A is being filed to report amendments to the Statement as specifically set forth herein. Unless otherwise indicated herein, each capitalized term used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Statement.

This Schedule 13D/A relates to the Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of Newcourt Acquisition Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Issuer”) whose principal executive offices are located at 2201 Broadway, Suite 705, Oakland, CA 94612.

The Schedule 13D/A is being filed by the following person:

Newcourt SPAC Sponsor LLC

Sponsor is organized under the laws of the State of Delaware. Tabula Rasa Limited, a British Virgin Islands company with limited liability, is the sole manager of Sponsor. Fiducia Trustees Limited is the sole corporate director of Tabula Rasa Limited. The address for the principal business office of the Reporting Person is 2201 Broadway, Suite 705, Oakland, CA 94612.

The principal business of the Sponsor is investing in securities, including the securities of the Issuer.

During the last five years, the Reporting Person (i) has not been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) and (ii) was not a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

The aggregate purchase price for the Placement Units (as defined below) was $9,200,000. The aggregate purchase price for the Founder Shares (as defined below) was $25,000. In each case, the source of these funds was the working capital of Sponsor.

Founder Shares

In March 2021, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 5,912,500 Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share. In September 2021, the Issuer effected a dividend of approximately 0.017 shares for each outstanding Class B ordinary share, resulting in there being an aggregate of 6,015,000 Founder Shares outstanding. On October 19, 2021, the Issuer effected a dividend of approximately 0.099 shares for each outstanding Class B ordinary share, resulting in there being an aggregate of 6,611,500 Founder Shares outstanding, which amount included an aggregate of up to 841,500 Founder Shares that were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full. Since the underwriters’ over-allotment was partially exercised, the Sponsor forfeited 76,500 Founder Shares. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Ordinary Shares at the time of the Issuer’s initial business combination (the “Business Combination”) on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment pursuant to certain anti-dilution rights.

Placement Units

On October 22, 2021, as part of a private placement units purchase agreement dated October 19, 2021 (the “Unit Subscription Agreement”), Sponsor purchased 920,000 placement units (the “Placement Units”) from the Issuer for an aggregate purchase price of $9,200,000. Each Placement Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share (“Placement Share”) and one-half of one redeemable warrant (each, a “Placement Warrant”). Each whole Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one ordinary shares at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, during the period commencing on the later of (i) twelve (12) months from the date of the closing of the IPO and (ii) 30 days following the consummation of the Business Combination.

The foregoing description of the Unit Subscription Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the agreement, which is attached as an exhibit hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Letter Agreement

Sponsor and the Issuer entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) pursuant to which Sponsor agreed to (i) waive its redemption rights with respect to its Founder Shares and public shares in connection with the completion of the Issuer’s initial Business Combination and (ii) waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to its Founder Shares if the Issuer fails to complete our initial Business Combination within 15 months from the closing of the IPO (although the Sponsor will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any public shares it holds if the Issuer fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the prescribed time frame).

Voting Agreement

Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, Sponsor agreed to vote any Founder Shares, Placement Shares, and any Ordinary Shares purchased during or after the IPO (including in open market and privately negotiated transactions) in favor of the Business Combination. If the Issuer submits the Business Combination to its public shareholders for a vote, the Issuer will complete the Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding Ordinary Shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.

Lock-up Agreement

Further pursuant to the Letter Agreement, Sponsor agreed that the Founder Shares, Placement Units, and securities contained therein are not transferable or salable (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of the Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Issuer completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in the Company’s public shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property, and (ii) in the case of the Placement Units, including the component securities therein, until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination, with certain limited exceptions.

The foregoing description of the Letter Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the agreement, which is attached as an exhibit hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the closing of the IPO, the Issuer entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Sponsor, pursuant to which Sponsor is entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Issuer register Founder Shares, Placement Units, any Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of Placement Warrant, any Ordinary Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Founder Shares, and any Ordinary Shares that may be issued as part of working capital loans. In addition, Sponsor has certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the Business Combination and rights to require the Issuer to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act.

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the agreement, which is attached as an exhibit hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
