SCHEDULE 13D

 

Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D is filed to amend and restate, in its entirety, the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 30, 2023 (the “Schedule 13D”). Due to scriveners’ errors, the Schedule 13D (i) disclosed the wrong CUSIP number and (ii) incorrectly reported that each Reporting Person has sole power to vote or to direct the vote and sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of the shares beneficially owned by each Reporting Person. In fact, each Reporting Person possesses shared power to vote or to direct the vote and shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of the beneficially owned shares. This Amendment No. 1 serves to correct this error.

 

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

 

Securities Acquired: Israel Acquisitions Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) initially acquired Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Ordinary Shares”), as part of the formation and initial capitalization of Israel Acquisitions Corp (the “Issuer”). The Sponsor acquired units of the Issuer in connection with the Issuer’s initial public offering in January 2023. Each unit of the Issuer acquired by the Sponsor represents the right to receive one Class A ordinary share, $0.0001 par value per share (“Class A Ordinary Shares”), and one redeemable warrant. The warrants are not currently exercisable, and they will not be exercisable, if ever, until after the completion of a business combination by the Issuer, and accordingly, the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants are not included in this Schedule 13D.

 

Issuer:Israel Acquisitions Corp

Item 2. Identity and Background.

The Sponsor is managed by Mr. Greystoke and Mr. Ecalle. The Sponsor holds approximately 27.2% of the issued and outstanding shares of all classes of ordinary shares of the Issuer (19,929,167) based on the number of Class A Ordinary Shares (15,137,500) and Class B Ordinary Shares (4,791,667) outstanding.

The aggregate purchase price for the shares of Ordinary Shares currently beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons was $6,375,000. The source of these funds was the capital of the Sponsor.

  

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

On January 26, 2022, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 5,750,000 Class B Ordinary Shares of the Issuer (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. On March 4, 2022, the Issuer effected a share capitalization with respect to our Class B Ordinary Shares of 1,150,000, resulting in the Sponsor holding 6,900,000 Founder Shares. On August 18, 2022, the Sponsor surrendered for no consideration 1,150,000 Class B Ordinary Shares, resulting in the Sponsor holding 5,750,000 founder shares. On November 17, 2022, the Sponsor surrendered for no consideration 958,333 Class B Ordinary Shares, resulting in the Sponsor holding 4,791,667 Founder Shares.

 

On January 18, 2023, simultaneously with the consummation of the Issuer’s Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”), the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 637,500 units (“Private Placement Units”) of the Issuer at $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, pursuant to a Private Placement Units Purchase Agreement dated January 12, 2023, by and between the Issuer and the Sponsor (the “Purchase Agreement”), as more fully described in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D, which information is incorporated herein by reference. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share and one warrant, each warrant exercisable to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share, at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The warrants are not currently exercisable, and they will not be exercisable, if ever, until after the completion of a business combination by the Issuer, and within the next 60 days, accordingly, the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants are not included in this Schedule 13D.

 

The Ordinary Shares owned by the Reporting Persons have been acquired for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons may make further acquisitions of the Ordinary Shares from time to time, however, all of such shares are subject to lock-up restrictions as further described in Item 6 below. The Sponsor acts as the sponsor of the Issuer and Mr. Greystoke acts as an Advisor to the Issuer. Mr. Ecalle is has no official position with and is not an Advisor to the Issuer.

 

Except for the foregoing, the Reporting Persons have 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, the Issuer is a blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Under various agreements between the Issuer and the Reporting Persons as further described in Item 6 below, the Reporting Persons have agreed (A) to vote its shares in favor of any proposed business combination and (B) not to redeem any shares in connection with a shareholder vote (or tender offer) to approve (or in connection with) a proposed initial business combination.

Private Placement Units Purchase Agreement between the Issuer and Sponsor

 

On January 18, 2023, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased 637,500 Private Placement Units pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Private Placement Units and the securities underlying such Private Placement Units are subject to a lock up provision in the Purchase Agreement or Insider Letter (described below), which provides that such securities shall not be transferable, saleable or assignable until 30 days after the consummation of the Issuer’s initial business combination, subject to certain limited exceptions as described in the Insider Letter.

 

The description of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 10.4 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 19, 2023 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.1).

 

Insider Letter

 

On January 12, 2023, in connection with the IPO, the Issuer, the Sponsor, and certain other parties thereto entered into a letter agreement (the “Insider Letter”). Pursuant to the Insider Letter, the parties agreed (A) to vote the Founder Shares, any Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Units and any public shares in favor of any proposed business combination, (B) not to propose an amendment to the Issuer’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that would modify the substance or timing of the Issuer’s obligation to redeem the public shares if the Issuer does not consummate a business combination within 12 months from the completion of the IPO (or up to 18 months if the Company extends the period of time to consummate its initial business combination in accordance with the terms described in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-263658), initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 17, 2022 and as amended from time to time), unless the Issuer provides the holders of public shares with the opportunity to redeem such shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Issuer’s trust account set up in connection with the IPO (the “Trust Account”), (C) not to redeem any Founder Shares and any shares underlying the Private Placement Units into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a shareholder vote to approve the Issuer’s proposed initial business combination or a vote to amend the provisions of the Issuer’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity and (D) that the Founder Shares and any Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Units shall not participate in any liquidating distribution upon winding up if a business combination is not consummated. The Sponsor also agreed that in the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account of the Issuer (as defined in the Insider Letter), it will indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer against any and all loss, liability, claims, damage and expense whatsoever which the Issuer may become subject to as a result of any claim by any vendor or other person who is owed money by the Issuer for services rendered or products sold to or contracted for the Issuer, or by any target business with which the Issuer has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, but only to the extent necessary to ensure that such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense does not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account; provided that such indemnity shall not apply if such vendor or prospective target business executes an agreement waiving any claims against the Trust Account.

 

   

 

 

The description of the Insider Letter is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on January 19, 2023 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.2).

 

Registration Rights Agreement

 

In January 2023, in connection with the IPO, the Issuer and the Sponsor entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which the Sponsor was granted certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights, which will be subject to customary conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters of an offering to limit the number of shares offered.

 

The summary of such registration rights agreement contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 10.3 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on January 19, 2023 (and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.3).
