Item 1. Security and Issuer.
This Amendment No. 3 (this “Amendment No. 3”) to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D filed on February 17, 2021 (the “Original Schedule 13D,” and as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on June 2, 2021 and Amendment No. 2 filed on January 21, 2022 , the “Schedule 13D”) and relates to the Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) of Pioneer Merger Corp., a Cayman Islands corporation (the “Issuer”). The address of the Issuer’s principal executive offices is 667 Madison Avenue, 19th Floor, New York, NY 10065. Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 3, the Schedule 13D remains in full force and effect. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings previously ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
As set forth below, as a result of the transactions described herein, in connection with the Issuer’s liquidation, each of the Reporting Persons will cease to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Shares after giving effect to the de-listing and de-registration of the Issuer’s shares.
Item 2, Identity and Background.
Item 2(b) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:
(b) The address of the principal business office of the Reporting Persons and Alpha Wave GP is 667 Madison Avenue, 19th Floor, New York, NY 10065.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5(a-c) and (e) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:
(a-c) On January 12, 2023, the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC filed a Form 25. On January 17, 2023, the Issuer redeemed all of its outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares for approximately $10.13 per share (the “Redemption”), and, on January 23, 2023, the Issuer expects to file a Form 15, in order to delist and deregister the Class A Ordinary Shares. Pursuant to the Redemption, the 4,450,000 Class A Shares beneficially held by Alpha Wave were redeemed and Alpha Wave ceased to beneficially own any equity securities of the Issuer. As a result of the Redemption and after effectiveness of the de-listing and de-registration of the Issuer’s Shares, the Reporting Persons will no longer have voting or dispositive power over any registered equity securities of the Issuer. Other than as described herein, the Reporting Persons have not affected any transactions in the Class A Ordinary Shares during the past 60 days.
(e) As a result of the Redemption and after giving effect to the de-listing and de-registration of the Issuer’s Shares, the Reporting Persons will cease to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of the Class A Ordinary Shares, effective as of April 23 2023.
