Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

Shortly after the incorporation of the Issuer, on September 21, 2020, the Former Sponsor subscribed for 4,812,500 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share (“Class B Ordinary Shares”), for a total consideration of $25,000. On January 25, 2021, the Issuer effected a dividend, resulting in the Former Sponsor holding an aggregate of 6,250,000 Class B Ordinary Shares.  Simultaneously with the closing of the Issuer’s initial public offering (the “IPO”), the Former Sponsor purchased 4,400,000 private placement warrants of the Issuer, each exercisable to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share, subject to adjustment, at a price of $1.50 per warrant (“Private Placement Warrants”) for a total consideration of $6,600,000.

 

On June 15, 2022, the Former Sponsor transferred to the Sponsor, 6,250,000 Class B ordinary shares of the Company and 4,400,000 warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares of the Company held by the Former Sponsor.

 

On June 30, 2022, the Former Sponsor transferred all the membership interests of the Sponsor to Quadro IH (the “Sponsor Transaction”). In connection with the Sponsor Transaction, Twelve Seas and Quadro IH were appointed as the managing members of the New Sponsor.

 

Effective on June 30, 2022, Ivan Tavrin resigned from all officer and director positions of the Issuer, and Dimitri Elkin was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer and Clifford Tompsett, a member of the Issuer’s board of directors (the “Board”) was appointed as the Chairman of the Board by the Board.

 

The Class B Ordinary Shares and Private Placement Warrants owned by the Reporting Persons have been acquired for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons may make further acquisitions of securities of the Issuer from time to time and, subject to certain restrictions, may dispose of any or all of the securities of the Issuer held by the Reporting Persons at any time depending on an ongoing evaluation of the investment in such securities, prevailing market conditions, other investment opportunities and other factors. However, the Class B Ordinary Shares and the Private Placement Warrants are subject to certain lock-up restrictions as further described in Item 6 below.

 

Following the completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination and upon the expiration of any applicable lock up period and subject to applicable rules and regulations, the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Class B Ordinary Shares held by the Sponsor will be distributed according to the Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Sponsor.

 

Except as reported herein, the Sponsor has no plans or proposals which relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) and (c) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

 

With respect to paragraph (b) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, the Issuer is a blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Pursuant to certain agreements as further described in Item 6 below, the Sponsor has agreed (A) to vote its shares in favor of any proposed business combination the Issuer seeks shareholder approval of and (B) not to redeem any shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a proposed initial business combination.

 

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

(a) Items 7-11 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference. As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 6,250,000 Class B Ordinary Shares, representing 21.37% of the total of the Issuer’s issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares (collectively, the “Ordinary Shares”). The Class B Ordinary Shares will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary Shares of the Issuer at the time of the Issuer’s initial business combination, or earlier at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment, as more fully described under the heading “Description of Securities-Founder Shares” in the Issuer’s prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) (File No. 333-252419). This amount excludes the 4,400,000 Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants that are not exercisable until 30 days after completion of the Issuer’s initial business combination.

 

The foregoing beneficial ownership percentage is based on a total of 29,250,000 Ordinary Shares currently outstanding, which is the sum of (i) 23,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and (ii) 6,250,000 Class B Ordinary Shares held by the Sponsor.

 

(b) Items 7-11 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference. The Reporting Persons have shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to the 6,250,000 Class B Ordinary Shares reported in this Schedule 13D.

 

(c) None of the Reporting Persons has effected any transaction in the Ordinary Shares during the past sixty days, except as described in Item 4 and Item 6 of this Schedule 13D, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

 

(d) Not applicable.

 

(e) Not applicable.

 

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.  

 

The response to Item 4 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference herein.

 

On February 17, 2021, in connection with the IPO, the Issuer, the Former Sponsor and certain other securityholders of the Issuer named therein entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement provides for customary demand and piggy-back registration rights for the Sponsor.

 

 

On February 17, 2021, in connection with the IPO, the Issuer and the Former Sponsor entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”). Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Former Sponsor agreed to vote any Ordinary Shares held by it in favor of the Issuer’s initial business combination; to facilitate the liquidation and winding up of the Issuer if an initial business combination is not consummated within the time period set forth in the Issuer’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association; to certain transfer restrictions with respect to the Issuer’s securities; and to certain indemnification obligations of the Former Sponsor.

 

On May 25, 2022, the Issuer issued a promissory note (the “Note”) to the Former Sponsor in the amount of $400,000, to be used for working capital purposes.

 

In connection with the Sponsor Transaction, the Former Sponsor assigned to the Sponsor all of its rights and obligations under the Letter Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Note. As of June 30, 2022, $[318,700] has been drawn down under the Note.
