Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

On March 20, 2023, KludeIn I Acquisition Corp. (“KludeIn” or the “Company”) held a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Special Meeting”), at which holders of 4,543,306 shares of KludeIn’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) were present in person or by proxy, constituting a quorum for the transaction of business at the Special Meeting. Only stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 10, 2023, the record date for the Special Meeting, were entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. As of the record date, 4,930,364 shares of Common Stock were outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.

 

At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved (see Item 5.07 below), among other matters, an amendment (the “Charter Amendment”) to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”). The Charter Amendment removes from the Charter (i) the limitation on share repurchases prior to the consummation of a business combination that would cause KludeIn’s net tangible assets (“NTA”) to be less than $5,000,001 following such repurchases, and (ii) the limitation that KludeIn shall not consummate a business combination if it would cause KludeIn’s NTA to be less than $5,000,001 either immediately prior or subsequent to the consummation of such business combination. The terms of the Charter Amendment are set forth in the Company’s definitive proxy statement/prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 13, 2023 (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”).

 

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Charter Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the common stock and warrants of the Company, which will then be named Near Intelligence Holdings, Inc. (“Near”), are expected to begin trading on Nasdaq under the symbols “NIR” and “NIRW,” respectively, on March 23, 2023.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. KludeIn’s and Near’s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “budget,” “continues,” “could,” “expect,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “strategy,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “project,” “will,” “should,” “predicts,” “scales,” “representative of,” “valuation,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the Business Combination and the timing of the Closing of the Business Combination. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results. Most of these factors are outside the control of KludeIn or Near and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; (2) the inability to consummate the Business Combination in a timely manner or at all, including due to conditions to the closing in the Merger Agreement, which may adversely affect the price of KludeIn’s securities; (3) delays in obtaining or the inability to obtain any necessary regulatory approvals required to complete the Business Combination; (4) the ability to maintain the listing of KludeIn’s securities on a national securities exchange; (5) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of Near’s securities on Nasdaq following the completion of the Business Combination; (6) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Business Combination; (7) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Near or against KludeIn related to the Merger Agreement or the Business Combination; and (8) other risks and uncertainties identified in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and in other filings with the SEC made by KludeIn. KludeIn and Near caution that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive, and caution readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Readers are referred to the most recent reports filed with the SEC by KludeIn. Neither KludeIn nor Near undertakes or accepts any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based, subject to applicable law.
