Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

As previously disclosed, at an annual meeting of the stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Bannix Acquisition Corp. (“Bannix”) held on March 8, 2024, Bannix’s stockholders voted in favor of a proposal to amend Bannix’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended, the “Amended Charter”) to extend the date (the “Extension”) by which the Company must (1) complete a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses (an “initial business combination”), (2) cease its operations except for the purpose of winding up if it fails to complete such initial business combination, and (3) redeem 100% of the Company’s common stock (“common stock”) included as part of the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering that was consummated on September 14, 2021 (the “IPO”), from March 14, 2024, as extended, and to allow the Company, without another stockholder vote, to further extend the date to consummate a Business Combination on a monthly basis up to six (6) times by an additional one (1) month each time after March 14, 2024 by resolution of the Company’s Board of Directors, if requested by the Company’s sponsor, Instant Fame, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable deadline date, until September 14, 2024, or a total of up to six (6) months after March 14, 2024, unless the closing of a business combination shall have occurred prior thereto

 

Also, as previously disclosed, if an Extension is implemented, the sponsor of Bannix, Sponsor or its designees will deposit into the trust account, as a loan, the lesser of (x) $25,000 or (y) $0.05 per public share multiplied by the number of public shares outstanding (the “Contribution”), in connection with each Extension.

 

On April 15, 2024, the Board, at the request of the Sponsor, determined to implement the fourteenth Extension and to extend the Deadline Date for an additional month to May 14, 2024. The $25,000 for the fourteen Extension was provided to the trust on April 15, 2024.
