Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

As previously disclosed on April 22, 2024, iLearningEngines, Inc. (formerly known as Arrowroot Acquisition Corp. (“ARRW”)), a Delaware corporation (“New iLearningEngines” or the “Company”), previously entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of April 27, 2023 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), with ARAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Arrowroot Acquisition Corp. (“Merger Sub”), and iLearningEngines Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Legacy iLearningEngines”). On April 16, 2024, the Company consummated the merger transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Business Combination”) whereby Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy iLearningEngines with the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceasing and Legacy iLearningEngines surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, ARRW changed its name from Arrowroot Acquisition Corp. to iLearningEngines, Inc. and Legacy iLearningEngines changed its name from iLearningEngines Inc. to iLearningEngines Holdings, Inc.

 

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws on April 16, 2024 (the “Bylaws”). The Bylaws contain lock-up provisions that broadly prohibited the sale, pledge, transfer or otherwise disposition of their ownership interest in the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) until the earlier to occur of (i) one year after completion of the Business Combination, (ii) the last trading day when the closing price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock 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 and (iii) upon the consummation of a change of control, subject to certain customary exceptions. The lock-up provisions are applicable to holders of shares of Common Stock that were issued: (i) as consideration under the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Shares”); (ii) to directors, officers and employees of the Company and other individuals upon the settlement or exercise of Adjusted RSUs (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or Adjusted Restricted Stock (as defined in the Merger Agreement); and (iii) as consideration pursuant to the convertible promissory notes issued by Legacy iLearningEngines pursuant to convertible note purchase agreements by and between Legacy iLearningEngines and certain investors (the “Convertible Note Shares”).

 

On April 25, 2024, the Company waived the lock-up restrictions under the Bylaws, effective as of April 29, 2024, with respect to (i) the Convertible Note Shares and (ii) the Merger Shares held by former Legacy iLearningEngines stockholders that hold, individually, less than three percent (3%) of the Common Stock issued as consideration in connection with the Business Combination, which the Company expects will result in the release of approximately 19,367,095 shares of Common Stock held by these lock-up parties (the “Released Shares”), of which 13,906,097 will become immediately available for trading (the “Tradeable Released Shares”). As a result, the Tradeable Released Shares are expected to become available for trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market beginning at the open of trading on April 29, 2024.
