Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
In connection with the Business Combination Proposal, the Company’s stockholders had the right to elect to redeem all or a portion of their shares of Class A common stock for a per share price calculated in accordance with the Company’s governing documents. The Company’s stockholders elected to redeem an aggregate of 17,444,293 shares of Class A common stock (the “Redemptions”). The Merger Agreement provides that the obligation of NextNav, LLC to consummate the Transactions is conditioned on, among other things, the Available Closing Date Total Cash (as defined in the Merger Agreement) being equal to or greater than $250.0 million at the time of closing of the Transactions (the “Minimum Cash Condition”). As a result of the Redemptions, the Available Closing Date Total Cash is less than $250.0 million and the Minimum Cash Condition has not been satisfied. NextNav, LLC agreed to waive the Minimum Cash Condition and the Transaction closed on October 28, 2021.
Following the consummation of the Transactions, the combined company will operate as NextNav Inc. and its shares of common stock and warrants are expected to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) beginning on October 29, 2021 under the symbols “NN” and “NNAVW,” respectively.

Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “forecast,” “intend,” “seek,” “target,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “plan,” “outlook,” and “project” and other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These statements, which involve risks and uncertainties, relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results and estimates of amounts not yet determinable and may also relate to NextNav’s future prospects, developments and business strategies. In particular, such forward-looking statements include statements concerning NextNav’s common stock and warrants ticker symbols on Nasdaq. These statements are based on NextNav’s management’s current expectations and beliefs, as well as a number of assumptions concerning future events.
Such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside Company’s control that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors include, but are not limited to, (1) the ability of NextNav to meet Nasdaq’s listing standards following the consummation of the Transactions; (2) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against NextNav following the Transactions; and (3) other risk and uncertainties indicated from time to time in other documents filed with the SEC by the Company and NextNav. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect us. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and the Company undertakes no commitment to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
